There is no doubt that the impact of Tesla on the automotive industry is to create pure electric high-end models, and the other is to use the radical application of intelligent driving technology.
However, in recent years, traditional car manufacturers have not been weaker in their technical accumulation in intelligent driving than Tesla, such as Mercedes-Benz , Toyota , Volvo , and Infiniti,
, but Tesla has aggressively equipped the fourth-level autonomous driving system . This radical approach naturally cannot avoid some safety issues, but traditional car manufacturers have also felt the pressure.
Nowadays, traditional manufacturers are also accelerating the application of autonomous driving technology, but they are still provided in an assisted driving attitude, such as the adaptive cruise function of various brands.
Nissan's high-end brand Infiniti adopted the line-controlled steering function on the Q50 model a few years ago. The implementation of the
function makes the steering of the car completely controlled by electronic signals rather than mechanical control. This is undoubtedly a solid foundation for autonomous driving. Tesla also feels pressured by this.
Infiniti Q50 of that year can achieve long-term high-speed adaptive cruise. Not only can it maintain a safe distance from the car in front,
can also automatically remain in the lane line at high speed, even if there are turns. Unfortunately, the price positioning of Infiniti Q50 is too high, ranging from 600,000 to 700,000 yuan per unit (although the price was reduced later), and
is always inferior to Tesla with an average price of 300,000 yuan or 400,000 yuan. From October 2021 to October 2022 alone, the cumulative sales of
Infiniti was 5,560 units, a decrease of 73.77% from the same period last year; while Tesla's sales reached 100,000 units in one month. Although Infiniti, a subsidiary of Nissan , "challenged" Tesla, but did not achieve great results,
, however, "there are Nissan in the east and the Toyota in the west." Toyota, whether it is sales or the research and development of new energy vehicle technology, has put Tesla in a lot of pressure.
not to mention the distance, just talk about the nearest ones. GAC Toyota lived up to expectations and launched the first e-TNGA pure electric mid-size SUV model bZ4X, the price of is only 199,800-287,800 yuan, which once again shows that the new concept of "a good car is not necessarily expensive".
