"What major are you studying in college? What industry are you engaged in now?" This question is quite interesting. Just count on your fingers. In today's era, there are actually not many jobs that can be linked to the majors you studied in college (except for science and engineering, because the professionalism of the engineer position is too strong and the professional matching is very common).
Why did you think of this topic? It is because we are seeing too many "outsiders" rushing into the field of automobile manufacturing. People or companies who had no idea about the automobile industry have all gone into operation to build cars. Just recently, the Foxconn car manufacturing was finally confirmed!
Foxconn is actually serious about building cars!
The first car MODEL B is unveiled!
htmlOn October 6, Hon Hai Group released the Foxtron Model B trailer video through its official social networking website account. Hon Hai Group said that Model B is a brand new model built on the Hon Hai electric vehicle open platform and will be officially announced on the annual Technology Day held on October 18.
You read that right! It is the Foxconn, the electronics manufacturer that is famous for manufacturing Apple phones in the world! You are surprised? Let’s play: Skyworth originally made color TVs, but now it’s made cars; Xiaomi originally made mobile phones, but now it’s made cars; there are even more exaggerated ones, Wuliangye originally made liquor, but now it’s made cars...
Who is the name like? Who does the side look like?
Then look back again... I found that the name of Foxconn's first car was Model B! They also said last year that four other cars will be released in the future, namely Model C, Model E, electric bus Model T, and electric pickup truck Model V. By the way, a brand we are familiar with, is the car model of its name Model S, Model X, Model 3, Model Y...
? Judging from the official film released by Foxconn, the side face of Model B and Volkswagen's ID.3 seem... I frowned anyway. Fortunately, the front design seems to be quite original, but in terms of appearance... I can only say that "everyone has a look at it"! I am not convenient to evaluate whether it is handsome or ugly, readers have the final say.
Foxconn can’t build cars, who can help him build it?
Nazhijie ! Just ask if you are afraid?
However, the topic of energy consumption performance of this car has aroused the curiosity of friends in the automotive media circle: How high is the power consumption per 100 kilometers? ——After all, Foxconn’s car manufacturing incident is somewhat related to the famous Taiwanese car company, Yulon Group. And this Yulon Group... we Chinese car friends are so familiar with it: the license plate of his house is called "Nazhijie".
Nazhijie is so famous, I believe everyone knows how well it is? Forget about the joke about Nazhijie's extremely high fuel consumption... So what does this Nazhijie have to do with Foxconn's car manufacturing? ——Simply put, it means: Foxconn does not know how to build cars, so he has to find someone to produce, and this "person" is Yulon Group (Nazhijie).
Previously, Yulong Group Chairman Yan Chen Lilian had revealed to the public that Model C and Model E will be put into production and listed under the Yulong Group Nazhijie brand. Hon Hai Group and Yulon Group have previously established a joint venture company "Honghua Advanced", with an equity ratio of 51:49 (that is, Foxconn is dominant).
"Four wheels + sofa" evolved to
"Four wheels + mobile phone"? !
So this will inevitably trigger discussions in the car circle: After all, many years ago, the boss of Foxconn , Terry Gou, , said, ", Apple car is just four wheels , iPhone . Since we can build iPhones, why can't we build electric cars?" has caused a sensation (it sounds like "borrowing" the amazing remarks that the boss of a famous car company in my country said many years ago, "A car is not just four wheels + sofa").
It seems that Foxconn wants to evolve the car from "four wheels + sofa" to "four wheels + mobile phone"! So last month, when Nazhijie launched the N7 model, it was nicknamed by netizens as "the two barrels of oil lost strategic partners." The N7 model of Nazhijie is actually the Foxconn Model C! The only difference is the trademark logo on the front of the car is different!
Performance parameters seem to look pretty good
It is said that it will be released simultaneously in China, Germany and the United States"
From the technical parameters disclosed by Nazhijie N7, it is quite mainstream: the maximum power of the motor is 300kW, the maximum torque of is 700Nm, the "zero-hundred" acceleration time is only 3.8 seconds, and the battery life is 700km. ——This is first-class for a mid-size SUV with a length of more than 4.6 meters and a wheelbase of 2.86 meters.
, and Foxconn Model B is the same as Model C and Model E, and is also built on the MIH platform. The range has reached 500km. Of course, Model B is a non-high-end scooter positioned as an "affordable" model (it is said to be priced low in the future). It is actually really OK to have such performance.
Although Nazhijie has gone bankrupt and delisted in mainland China, he did not expect that Foxconn has taken action and saved Nazhijie. Although the names of several Foxconn cars sound "a bit of reference to XXX" and the appearance looks "a bit of reference to XXX", Foxconn said that "it is expected to be released simultaneously in China, Germany and the United States in the future"... OK! It depends on whether the Germans and Americans can accept it...
