Last year, Foxconn In order to celebrate the birthday of Guo Taiming , it officially released the company's pure electric car brand Foxtron, and released three new cars in one go, namely Model C, Model E and Model T. Yes, the name is very similar to Tesla , and it is hard to tell the difference, but Foxconn's pure electric car is really named after the Model series that is almost the same as Tesla. Interestingly, many netizens said at that time that Foxconn had not been built, and they all rely on the car name to gain the popularity of Tesla.
After a year, Foxconn's first pure electric model has not been stranded, and it has been really built. The official picture of the first model Model B was officially exposed a few days ago, and it is expected to be officially unveiled on the annual Technology Day on the 18th of this month.
What's more interesting is that from the current official pictures, the name is very close to Tesla's Model B, which is positioned as a hatchback, but the appearance is very similar to Volkswagen's ID.3. Especially on the side, even the gradient decoration on the C-pillar is almost exactly the same. It cannot be said to be completely counterfeit, but it is difficult to get rid of the suspicion of plagiarism. No wonder many netizens complained that Model B was playing "Dongshi Emoji" from its name to its shape.
In addition, the interior of the new car has not been announced yet, and there is no detailed information on the power parameters. However, it is reported that the new car will be manufactured based on the MIH electric vehicle platform, and the range is expected to reach 500 kilometers. Referring to the hatchback positioning of the new car, it can achieve such a battery life under the limitations of size. It can be seen that this pure electric platform has something to do at the technical level, and there are no competitors at the same level at the moment.
At the same time, choosing the first hatchback car is probably in consideration of the current market environment. First, without brand accumulation, the market acceptance and freshness of entry-level cars is relatively high, and there will also be certain advantages in price.
Finally, although Model B has many places to gain popularity, it is said that Foxconn can build mass-produced cars within one year as scheduled. It can be seen that its manufacturing capabilities are not limited to electronic products. Even more complex pure electric cars have manufacturing capabilities. Therefore, car buyers are also looking forward to the specific performance of the new car officially announced on Technology Day.
