As we all know, with the listing of SU7, Xiaomi’s first new energy pure electric car, it not only made this brand-new domestic car-making brand become the focus of attention, but also intensified the market "involution" trend of similar products in China. As the fastest and strongest response, I am afraid it is lucky. After all, it is intended that all its sub-brands can have Geely competing with Xiaomi SU7, not only giving high-end new energy cars such as Yinhe E8, the new extreme krypton 001, the new extreme krypton 007 and the new Lexus 07, but even the extreme yue jointly built with Baidu will soon have a new car with the same positioning as Xiaomi SU7. And it is extremely 07!

With the approaching of the time when Extreme Vietnam 07 is expected to be released and listed within this month at the earliest; A few days ago, some netizens photographed the appearance of their real car without disguise. Not much to say, let’s take a look at its real car style through the lens of netizens.

First of all, from the appearance, Extreme Yue 07 will continue the family-style design style. As a pure electric car, the low-lying shape of the front of the car can not only form a dive visual effect, but also create a handsome and avant-garde painting style together with the irregular split headlights and the three-dimensional front surround.

On the side of the car body, the layout of the big slip back is not absent, and even equipped with a hatchback design. In addition, the design details such as the waistline with clear outline and the semi-closed revolving wheel hub can make the dynamic posture of the side face more attractive. In addition, the length, width and height of Polar Yue 07 are 4953/1989/1475 mm respectively; The length is slightly lower than that of Xiaomi SU7.

At the rear of the new car, the penetrating taillights ending with two-way extension can echo the avant-garde painting style of the front face. Moreover, it has a clear-cut wide rear surround and a built-in double-section pilot light, which can make its overall movement posture get a perfect ending.

In the interior part, the new car will also continue the family design style, which will also have a large-size smart screen and a semi-spoke steering wheel layout, plus there are almost no physical buttons in the car; Even though it looks simple, it also has a strong scientific and technological atmosphere. It is reported that Extreme Yue 07 will also be equipped with 8295 chips and high-order intelligent driving assistance systems.

On the spatial level, although its body length will be slightly smaller than that of Xiaomi SU7, its wheelbase arrangement of 3013mm, which is more than 3m, is superior to that of Xiaomi SU7. Thanks to this, it will also have a relatively strong rear legroom and trunk volume.

In terms of power, according to the application information, the Extreme Yue 07 will be equipped with dual motors, and the total power of the dual motors can reach 400 kilowatts; It is expected that its zero acceleration should also reach 3S level. In addition, the battery pack equipped with Extreme Yue 07 is a ternary lithium battery pack provided by Geely (Sichuan) Power Battery Co., Ltd..

Due to the limitation of conditions, there is only so much news about the extreme crossing 07 at present. However, from the limited information, it is not difficult to see that the overall performance of Extreme Yue 07 should be regarded as the outstanding existence of Geely’s high-end new energy cars. So, will you look forward to the official arrival of Extreme Yue 07?

　　In the past 2017, the Internet in China has followed the wind and stepped on the waves, bravely standing in the forefront, and the good news has spread frequently. High-speed rail, Alipay, bike-sharing and online shopping have become the "four new inventions" in China in the eyes of foreigners. Artificial intelligence has sprung up everywhere, and the Internet of Things, big data, virtual reality technology and the real economy have been further integrated. Emerging industries are booming, and traditional industries are welcoming opportunities for change. Overseas Network invited several experts to interpret this series of hot topics and look forward to the Internet in China in 2018. There is reason to believe that in 2018, China Internet will compose a new chapter and continue to write a chapter!

　　Sharing economy leads the world.

　　Unconsciously, the sharing economy has become a part of China people’s daily life: sharing trips, sharing charging treasures and sharing houses … … It is worth mentioning that bike-sharing’s service originated in China, which is a "Chinese-style innovation" in a complete sense. Both the design level and the manufacturing technology are typical representatives of "Created by China" and "Made by China".

　　Li Yongjian, director of the Internet Economy Research Office of the Institute of Finance and Economics of China Academy of Social Sciences, said that the rapid development of the sharing economy in China has not only resulted in the continuous expansion of the economic scale, but also the emergence of various innovative business models. In the field of transportation, participants in the sharing economy continued to grow, with bike-sharing users growing the fastest; The sharing economy in accommodation has also developed rapidly. In 2017, the transaction scale of China’s shared accommodation market is expected to reach 12.52 billion yuan, an increase of 42.6% compared with 2016. In addition, shared cars have also begun to enter a period of rapid development. A number of shared car platforms have begun to appear in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chongqing and other places, with more than 750,000 EVCARD users. In September 2017, Shijingshan District of Beijing proposed to build the city’s first shared car demonstration operation area.

　　Li Yongjian said: "On the basis of absorbing advanced foreign business models, China’s sharing economy has expanded overseas and formed international influence. Since 2015, many bike-sharing enterprises such as ofo sharing bicycles and mobike have laid out overseas markets. On June 13th, 2017, mobike announced its landing in the 100th city in the world — — Manchester, England; Ofo has now entered 20 countries and more than 250 cities; Didi’s internationalization has accelerated, and it has invested in Brazil’s 99 car, India’s Ola (Euler), South Africa’s taxi application Taxify, Singapore’s Grab taxi software, Uber and Ford in the United States, and Careem in the Middle East and North Africa (Chinese meaning ‘ Generous ’ ) and other seven global mobile travel service platforms, the cooperation network has touched more than 1,000 cities in North America, Southeast Asia, South Asia and South America, covering 60% of the world’s population. Bike-sharing has become a new business card for China. "

　　Artificial intelligence overtaking in corners

　　Turn on the voice of the mobile phone and you can talk to the mobile robot; Open the input method, you can convert the voice into text; Open the electronic map, you can get the real-time road conditions and the best travel plan … … Artificial intelligence has changed people’s lives in every tiny way. According to the consulting data of Ai Media, the scale growth rate of artificial intelligence industry in China reached 43.3% in 2016, exceeding 10 billion yuan, and it is expected to reach 15.21 billion yuan in 2017 and 34.43 billion yuan in 2019.

　　Dr. Wu Jianlong, the Key Laboratory of Machine Perception and Intelligence of the Ministry of Education in Peking University, believes that China has achieved initial success in the field of artificial intelligence. He said: "China has made great breakthroughs in some fields of artificial intelligence. Taking computer vision as an example, computer vision is an important branch of artificial intelligence, and its purpose is to make computers or machines understand the outside world like human beings. Computer vision includes many practical tasks, such as face recognition, object detection and segmentation, and scene classification. With the development of deep learning, the existing technical methods have achieved excellent results in the above related tasks. For example, on the standard face recognition data set LFW (face database labeled in natural scenes), the recognition accuracy of the existing algorithms has reached 99.8%, which exceeds the recognition accuracy of human beings. In addition, in the Tianchi AI (Artificial Intelligence) Medical Competition held by Alibaba, the intelligent diagnosis of lung nodule images has reached the level of professional doctors, and the detection accuracy of tiny nodules of 3 mm and above exceeds 95%. The outstanding achievements in computer vision have further promoted the development of artificial intelligence, which has been fully reflected in related applications such as driverless, smart cities and medical images. "

　　Wu Jianlong said that in the future, artificial intelligence will mainly expand in four directions: driverless, smart city, medical image and speech recognition. China’s development in these fields has reached the forefront of the world, and we have reason to believe that in the near future, China is expected to "overtake in corners" in artificial intelligence.

　　Big data develops in depth.

　　According to the "2017 China Big Data Development Survey Report" published by the ICT Institute of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the growth rate of China’s big data market will remain above 30% from 2017 to 2020. But in fact, some insiders believe that the development speed of China’s big data industry in 2017 has exceeded expectations. Su Meng, chairman and CEO of Percent Information Technology Co., Ltd. and former doctoral supervisor of Guanghua School of Management of Peking University, also agreed with this view. He said, "In fact, the growth rate of some excellent big data companies far exceeds this growth rate. Take the percentage company as an example. In 2017, the percentage market revenue increased by 300%, and its overall big data solution has been widely adopted in domestic public affairs, finance, media publishing, intelligent manufacturing, retail fast-moving and other fields. "

　　Taking the manufacturing industry as an example, in 2017, outstanding manufacturing enterprises in China have applied big data to R&D design, manufacturing, marketing, after-sales service and other links, achieving improved production efficiency, more accurate marketing effect and improved service experience.

　　Su Meng believes that, on the one hand, the global technology open source movement trend has promoted China’s big data companies to achieve breakthroughs in basic technology innovation, and China companies have gradually become the main force of big data technology innovation; On the other hand, China’s rich data resources and increasingly extensive application requirements make Chinese big data companies at the world’s leading level in the innovation of big data applications. In addition, the pace of deep integration between traditional industries and big data is accelerating, and big data is becoming a magic weapon for the transformation of traditional industries.

　　Su Meng is confident about the future development of the big data industry. He said: "The development of China’s big data industry cannot be separated from the support of policies. Percent companies seize ‘ Belt and Road ’ The market opportunity of digital construction in countries along the route took the lead in going to sea and became the first big data company in China to go overseas. In addition, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader mentioned big data many times in the report of the 19 th National Congress, which made me more confident in the future development of the industry. "

　　Virtual Reality Transforms Industry

　　Since 2015, with the continuous introduction of new consumer technology products, VR (Virtual Reality) industry has become a hot spot. 2017 is called "the first year of VR industry". The integration of smart phones, mobile clients, mobile Internet and virtual products has not only brought earth-shaking changes to people’s lives, but also further transformed traditional industries and spawned a large number of emerging industries.

　　Experts in the industry pointed out that at this stage, the development of China’s VR industry is being promoted by users, technology, hardware, content, developers, channels, capital and other forces. A benign VR industry ecosystem has been initially established, and a whole industrial chain including tools and equipment, industry applications, content production, distribution platforms and related services is being formed.

　　From the national level, virtual reality industry, as a new strategic industry, has been highly valued by the state, and relevant policies, measures and planning schemes have been released in a high density. Various government departments have issued a large number of special policies for industrial development to encourage, support and promote the development of virtual reality industry.

　　Qiao Yueshan, deputy director of the Electronic Information Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said at the recent International Virtual Reality Innovation Conference that the development of virtual reality industry can promote integration and innovation. Taking virtual reality as the industrial starting point can promote the cross-border integration of different fields, and then define new standards and technologies, and even split out subversive new products and markets. The development of virtual reality industry can promote industrial transformation, break the traditional closed and chimney industrial development framework, connect key enterprises in different fields of industrial chain in series, and realize the transformation from industrial single-point breakthrough to industrial ecological expansion. Developing virtual reality industry can prosper content application. Virtual reality has rich business forms, great industrial potential and strong social benefits, and VR applications are accelerating to penetrate into production and life fields. At the same time, he pointed out that in the future, it is necessary to strengthen cross-disciplinary technology reserves, enrich the effective supply of products, promote the application of virtual reality key industries and build industrial support service platforms to ensure the healthy development of virtual reality industry.

　　Mobile payment goes overseas

　　In May 2017, the Silk Road Research Institute of Beijing Foreign Studies University interviewed young people from 20 countries along the Belt and Road Initiative. The interview found that the first thing that surprised, envied and wanted to bring back to their country was mobile payment. "Indian version of Alipay" and "Thailand version of Alibaba", China’s mobile payment technology is going overseas and realizing localization, which has a far-reaching impact on the local area.

　　Professor Ouyang Rihui, vice president of China Internet Economic Research Institute, believes that the development of Internet finance in China is in a leading position in the world and is one of the main achievements of China’s digital economy. Mobile payment is the most mature internet financial model in China. After the city is fully developed, it is sinking into the rural market and expanding to overseas markets.

　　Ouyang Rihui said: "The entry of China’s mobile payment into overseas markets has impacted the overseas payment ecology. Mobile payment is the trend of payment development, and overseas payment institutions are also actively embracing changes. However, it is a very complicated question whether to develop their own mobile payment platform or accept payment institutions in China. China payment institutions can take advantage of the lack of development of overseas mobile payment institutions, vigorously promote cooperation with merchants, and cooperate with China in ‘ Belt and Road ’ Infrastructure construction in countries along the route, do a good job in the information infrastructure construction of mobile payment, and cultivate consumers’ usage habits. "

　　Ouyang Rihui believes that in the future, from a spatial perspective, China mobile payment institutions should do a good job in developing markets in developed countries such as Britain and the United States, and at the same time do a good job in market expansion in countries along the Belt and Road; From the point of view of cooperation objects, we should focus on the cooperation between merchants in areas with a large number of outbound tourists in China, first meet the needs of Chinese tourists, and then drive the payment changes of consumers in the host countries; Finally, we must thoroughly study the laws, regulations, customs and traditions of countries and regions, gradually expand the market in an open and cooperative way, and pay special attention to overseas information privacy and anti-monopoly issues.

　　Internet of Things enjoys a smart life.

　　In the Internet of Things era, the Internet of Things industry in China has entered the fast lane. In 2017, the Internet of Things industry in China developed by spurt. As Wang Zhengwei, secretary-general of Zhongguancun Internet of Things Industry Alliance and director of the Innovation Center, said: "If 2016 is the new first year of the Internet of Things, then 2017 is undoubtedly the year of the outbreak of the Internet of Things in China."

　　Wang Zhengwei believes that in 2017, China’s Internet of Things will accelerate into a new stage of "cross-border integration, integrated innovation and large-scale development", and trillions of new devices such as smart wearable devices, smart home appliances, intelligent networked cars and intelligent robots will compete to access the network, forming massive data and bringing explosive growth in applications. First of all, NB-IOT (Narrowband Internet of Things Based on Cellular Network) technology detonated the Internet of Things market. The NB-IoT core protocol standard first put forward by Huawei was adopted in 3GPP (3rd generation partnership project, a standardization organization established in December 1998), thus setting off the hot spot of the Internet of Things. Secondly, in 2017, the three major telecom operators made full use of their full power and stepped in strongly, which led to the new blue ocean of the Internet of Things, fully activating the Internet of Things market in China. At the same time, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the Notice on Comprehensively Promoting the Construction and Development of the Mobile Internet of Things (NB-IOT), clearly accelerating the deployment of the mobile Internet of Things. By the end of 2017, the NB-IoT network will cover major cities such as municipalities directly under the central government and provincial capital cities, and the scale of base stations will reach 400,000.

　　Wang Zhengwei said that the great development of the Internet of Things will not only further facilitate people’s lives, but also promote breakthroughs in other technologies and promote the development of all walks of life. He said: "The trillion-dollar vertical industry market of the Internet of Things is constantly emerging, which will promote the deepening of supply-side structural reform; The consumer market demand for Internet of Vehicles, health, home, intelligent hardware and wearable devices is more active, which will drive the continuous integration of the Internet of Things and other cutting-edge technologies; Technologies such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality, autonomous driving and intelligent robots will continue to make new breakthroughs. "

The second row of seats can be moved back and forth by 10 centimeters. It is a natural requirement to fully ensure the space requirements of this row of passengers. As a luxury model, it also provides more entertainment system control, air conditioning control, etc. In the third row, it can be completely flat, which not only connects with the oversized trunk, but also creates a larger spare space. The third row of space for the pilot is better than many seven-seat MPVs. The 1.85-meter-tall experience person sits in the third row, and there is plenty of room for both the head and legs. In addition, the third row of seats for the pilot can be electrically reclined and stood up in the luggage compartment, making it convenient to load large luggage.

　　In order to welcome the once-in-a-thousand-year "Singles’ Day", on the evening of November 11, 2011, single nobles gathered in the capital and held a hot-blooded party in Sparrow Washe, which ignited the atmosphere of this year’s Singles’ Day to the highest point. "Single is not monotonous" is a single declaration shouted by many single nobles. They believe that they are not the "remaining" group, but just choose the lifestyle they want, because they have the right to "choose excellent". "Choose excellent" has also become the hottest word of this year’s Singles’ Day.

　　Before entering the event site, he already felt the "excellent" charm. At the entrance of the venue, the two Dongfeng 308 cars looked star-studded and fashionable against the exclusive background of Dongfeng Peugeot, which was full of mystery.

　　Entering the venue, the bursting band played head-on, and the single nobles also twisted with the rhythmic and powerful dance music, constantly intertwining and changing lights, pushing the party atmosphere to a hot spot! But this was just the prelude, the real climax of the night, the auction session of "308 One-Year Free Use Rights", finally made everyone’s emotions reach the limit and detonated the audience! After N rounds of intense bidding and competition, a post-80s generation named Li Kai was lucky enough to win the bid and won the one-year free use rights of Dongfeng Peugeot 308, which was envied and hated by everyone in the audience.

　　The singles who choose outstanding are young and enterprising, with their own unique ideas and fashion sense. Choosing outstanding ones can be said to complement the excellent 308. Li Kai, who already owns a silver Dongfeng, graduated from the University of International Business and Economics MBA, and participated in the 2011 Sohu New Good Man Selection and won the championship. After buying the 308 for one year, Li Kai said excitedly on the spot, "At that time, I bought the 307 because of my trust in this brand. Today, I am fortunate to be the owner of Dongfeng Peugeot again. I am very happy, not only because I am lucky, but because my excellence has been recognized by everyone."

　　Dongfeng Peugeot 308 is a "high-quality intermediate car" that inherits the classics of the "3" series and starts the leapfrog quality of the "8" era. The 308, which defines the standard of "new aesthetics of car styling fashion", has become a fashion label with its new design, and because of its unique charm, it has become a symbol that can define the owner and a business card that symbolizes the owner’s taste. Choosing an excellent 308 will inevitably attract single nobles who also choose excellent choices.

　　308 held this event, in addition to giving these single nobles the opportunity to appreciate 308’s "sculptural sense" fashion style and get up close and personal with 308’s leapfrog quality, it also conveyed an "excellent" attitude. Everyone has the privilege of choice, and only by knowing how to choose can they be better!

Original new car shopping guide:For consumers, how can there be hard goods under the price war?

How competitive is the Audi Q family flagship?

Looking back at the car market in the first half of this year, both new energy and Chinese brands are showing an upward trend, while the sales volume of the traditional fuel market is further leveling off. According to the data of the Passenger Federation, in the first half of the year, our country’s automobile retail 9.841 million vehicles, of which 910,000 were retail vehicles of conventional fuel vehicles in June, a year-on-year decrease of 27%, the same month; from January to June, the retail sales of conventional fuel vehicles 5.73 million, a year-on-year decrease of 13%, the above data also means that the fuel vehicle market is being further squeezed by new energy products.

In the context of the intensification of the internal volume of the car market in 2024, traditional fuel vehicles have been impacted by many new energy models, and the market competition landscape has also undergone some changes. In the past, luxury brand models were regarded as exclusive cars for the middle class and the rich, but with the increasing maturity of domestic new energy vehicles, it is obvious that the BBA troika has also been impacted to a certain extent.

Recently, the BMW Group also released the data for the first half of 2024. The data shows that in the first half of this year, the BMW Group sold 1.2134 million new cars (including BMW, Rolls-Royce), down 0.1% year-on-year, of which the BMW car brand increased by 2.3% year-on-year to 1.0965 million. However, it should be noted that BMW in the Chinese market has experienced a significant decline in the same period. In the first half of the year, the cumulative sales of BMW China were 375,900 (including BMW and MINI brands), down 4.2% year-on-year.

In the first half of this year, Mercedes-Benz delivered a total of 350,000 new cars in China, down 6.5% year-on-year. Among them, Mercedes-Benz’s sales in China mainly rely on its fuel vehicle products. In the first half of the year, only 11,400 pure electric models were sold.

On the other hand, the Audi brand sold a total of 301,600 vehicles (including Audi imported cars) in the first half of this year. Although there was a slight increase year-on-year, there was still a certain gap with the end point sales of Mercedes-Benz and BMW. And Audi and Mercedes-Benz’s new energy models are indeed not popular with users. In the first half of this year, the sales of its pure electric models were only 9,782, and the number of products has not yet reached the level of breaking 10,000.

In fact, Audi’s electric models are not selling well in overseas markets either. Overseas Audi officials said that it had previously invested heavily in electric vehicle production capacity and technology development, but the demand in the European high-end electric vehicle market was much lower than expected, which hit it hard.

In March this year, the new Audi Q6 e-tron made its world debut. The new car is built on the new PPE platform, and the car is also regarded as an important step for Audi to take towards the electrification era. The new car will be domestically produced by FAW Audi in the future, and will meet users with the product strategy of the Q6L e-tron after the extended wheelbase. At the same time, a new localized cockpit will be added. However, Audi electric vehicles, which are not very popular at home and abroad, have also cast an uncertain factor on the future development trend of the new car.

In addition, in the first half of this year, including BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Porsche and other brands, their models have started price promotions, but in today’s car market, even the sales strategy of "price for volume" has no obvious boost in some aspects.

Recently, BMW began to announce that it would stop participating in the price war, and then Mercedes-Benz and Audi also began to follow up. At present, some models of the BBA three have begun to return to the original end point market level. In fact, for luxury brands, participating in the price war is actually not a benign development strategy. It is only effective and unsustainable in the short term. Long-term and deep participation in the price war is actually a damage to the luxury brand perception established over the years.

In the face of such a market competition landscape, more and more car companies either adhere to the long-term line, or respond with stronger products. To put it bluntly, when a dealer sells a car, he loses one, and it won’t take long to close the door; for consumers, under the low price, there is no hard goods?

"Life is a marathon, but we treat it as a sprint, fast enough, and it is best to take shortcuts. So the posture is deformed and the mentality is out of balance." FAW Audi and Andy Lau have launched a short video copy of "reverse volume", which aims to directly address the anxiety of people today and express the value of long-termism with a discussion on how to properly "waste" time.

In the era of intelligent revolution, there will always be new words that are comparable, surpassing, and far ahead. But the only thing that is certain is that cars are not mobile phones on wheels, nor fast-moving consumer goods that are thrown away after two or three years of use. It is not difficult to make explosive products, but it is rare that even in the next 10 or even 15 years, the quality of products or machinery will still be reliable and stable.

A truly responsible car company will always tell its users the truth when it is not so timely. What is a good product in the true sense, FAW-Volkswagen and FAW-Audi are the same. In this regard, Li Fenggang, executive deputy general manager of FAW-Audi Sales Company, promised at the launch conference of the Audi Q family flagship SUV,"Audi will never practice with users, and will never compromise on product testing in pursuit of speed to market."

What changes have been made to the new Audi Q7?

On July 22, 2024, the flagship SUV of the Audi Q family was launched, of which 4 new models were priced at 60.98~ 804,800; 1 new model was priced at 1.0988 million yuan; 4 new models were priced at 78.68-108 4,800 yuan. Among them, the new Audi Q7 compartment is also the second time this generation of Audi Q7 has ushered in a mid-term change, and the last mid-term change can be traced back to 2019.

The new Audi Q7 continues to be based on the MLB Evo platform, and the new car uses the latest family style. Among them, the front face of the new car has changed, the front grille style has been replaced, and the interior of the headlights has also been readjusted, which looks more sporty than the old model. In addition, although the new model has not changed much at the tail, it shows the new CI logo launched by Audi. The front and rear use Audi’s new flat LOGO. At the same time, the quattro logo has been cancelled, and the S and S line models have been added as red diamond logo + product name.

The car has not changed much. It still uses the MMI digital virtual cockpit design, and also gives three screens. The whole system comes standard with a 12.3-inch full LCD meter + 10.1-inch central control screen and an 8.6-inch screen. In addition, the new model also comes standard with an interior expansion leather equipment package. The instrument area is made of nappa leather, and it is also equipped with a 23-speaker B & O sound system. The central power amplifier has a power of 1920 watts.

Regarding the power part, the new Audi Q7 offers 2.0T and 3.0T V6 engines, of which the 2.0T model has a maximum power of 265 horsepower (195kW) and a maximum torque of 370 Nm; the 3.0T model has a maximum power of 340 horsepower (250kW) and a maximum torque of 500 Nm, matching the 8AT automatic transmission, and is equipped with a mechanical quattro OurHours four-wheel drive system as standard.

The new Audi Q7 will face competition in the future, mainly and. But it cannot be ignored, even if the car positioning is not at the same level as the above three models, but the price, positioning crowd and target customers are overlapping. Since the beginning of this year, the Q M9 has only taken 5 months from February to June, and the sales volume has reached 58,800, which has exceeded the BMW X5’s 46,900 in the first half of this year.

In the era of new energy, the 3.0T or even 4.0T power in the fuel vehicle market is becoming increasingly rare, which also makes such models with large-displacement power more precious. Of course, like BMW X5, Mercedes-Benz GLE, and flagship SUV models such as Audi Q7 and Audi Q8, the driving experience they bring and the distance they can reach are actually irreplaceable, especially the quattro OurHours four-wheel drive system carried by Audi Q7. As long as the mountain is there and the water is ahead, Audi can take you to any distance you want to go.

The current car market is full of new products, why do many users still like the Audi brand, is it really just its quattro? In fact, it is only one of the two four-wheel drive in the world, and more importantly, at any time, a reliable, luxurious model that can withstand complex road conditions and changeable climate tests can be called a good car. For travel, these above qualities are far more important than "refrigerators, color TVs and big sofas".

Summarize:The new Audi Q7, on the basis of the quattro and air suspension standard in the whole series, also ushered in a major improvement in the appearance part, and the improvement in appearance is still not small. At the same time, the new model is further lowered in the official starting price compared to the old model, which shows full sincerity.

This year is the 116th anniversary of the birth of the Audi brand, and it is also the 36th year of cooperation between FAW and Audi. So far, it has 9 million users. In the face of fierce market competition, Audi adheres to the long-term approach, improves efficiency through innovative technology, adapts to localized user preferences and optimizes production processes, and quickly responds to market changes and brings out new ones. The newly listed Audi Q family flagship SUV products are also here to convey the luxury flagship standard of the new era.

On August 21, Extreme Krypton Automobile announced its unaudited quarterly financial results for the first half of 2024, which is also the first semi-annual report of Extreme Krypton Automobile since its listing on the New York Stock Exchange in May this year.

Overall, with the year-on-year growth in sales and the appearance of the scale effect, the revenue of polar krypton in the first half of the year was 34.78 billion yuan, an increase of 63.5% year-on-year.

From the second quarter, under non-US GAAP, the net loss of Kr 865 million yuan in a single quarter. However, Kr said that under Hong Kong accounting standards, after excluding the impact of share payment, the net loss of Kr narrowed significantly to 70 million yuan in the first half of the year, and turned losses into profits in the second quarter.

Looking forward to the second half of the year, Extreme Krypton reiterated that it still maintains the annual sales target of 230,000 vehicles unchanged, and aims to achieve a full-year turnaround under Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards.

"Despite the pressure, we remain confident in our full-year sales target of 230,000 vehicles in 2024," An Conghui, president of Geely Holding Group and CEO of Extreme Krypton Intelligent Technology, said on the evening of August 21 during the second-quarter earnings call of Extreme Krypton.

In addition, An Conghui also revealed the relevant information of the flagship SUV of Extreme Krypton for the first time. "It is expected that the large flagship SUV model of Extreme Krypton released in the fourth quarter of 2025 will be equipped with two power forms, one is pure electric and the other is super electric hybrid." This means that Extreme Krypton no longer adheres to pure electric.

The gross profit margin of the whole vehicle in the second quarter is 14.2%.

According to the financial report data, in the second quarter of this year, extreme krypton achieved revenue of 20.04 billion yuan, an increase of 58% year-on-year and a 36% increase month-on-month, setting a record high in a single quarter.

Among them, vehicle sales revenue reached 13.438 billion yuan, an increase of 59% over the same period last year; battery and other component sales revenue was about 5.30 billion yuan, an increase of 36.1%; R & D services and other services revenue was 1.30 billion yuan, an increase of 326.8%.

The increase in sales in the second quarter drove the growth of Extreme Krypton’s revenue in the quarter. From April to June this year, the cumulative delivery of Extreme Krypton doubled year-on-year to 54,800 vehicles.

However, in order to sell more new cars, sales and management fees also increased sharply in the second quarter, up 61.3% year-on-year to 2.605 billion yuan. In addition to the impact of equity incentive fees on listing expenses in May, the expansion of domestic and overseas offline channels also increased expenses.

An Conghui revealed that as of the end of July, there were 438 global Krypton stores, which are expected to expand to more than 520 by the end of the year, further penetrating domestic third- and fourth-tier cities.

In terms of research and development, the R & D expenditure of polar krypton reached 2.624 billion yuan in the second quarter of this year, an increase of nearly 90% year-on-year and an increase of 36% month-on-month; polar krypton said in the performance report that the growth was mainly due to salary distribution.

Affected by the growth in sales expenses and R & D expenses, the gross profit margin of Extreme Krypton’s automobiles in the second quarter increased by only 0.6 percentage points year-on-year to 14.2%, basically the same as that in the first quarter.

After the release of the second quarter performance report, Extreme Krypton reiterated that the annual sales target of 230,000 vehicles remained unchanged.

According to the delivery data released by Extreme Krypton, after the first monthly delivery of 20,000 vehicles in June, its delivery in July fell to about 16,000 vehicles; in the first seven months of this year, Extreme Krypton cars delivered 103,500 vehicles, an increase of 89% year-on-year, 45% of the annual sales target.

This means that in order to meet this year’s sales target, Krypton must achieve an average monthly sales of more than 25,000 units in the next five months, which is still a challenge for Krypton.

The flagship SUV model will be equipped with pure electric and super electric hybrid power forms, and will be released next year

In order to achieve sales targets, JK Auto is expected to launch two new models, JK 7X and JK MIX, in the second half of this year.

An Conghui revealed that the Extreme Krypton 7X will make its world debut at the Chengdu Auto Show at the end of August and is expected to be launched at the end of September. The Extreme Krypton MIX will be officially launched in the fourth quarter. Both models will be equipped with Extreme Krypton’s self-developed Haohan Smart Drive 2.0.

Looking ahead to next year, Extreme Krypton will launch a flagship SUV in the fourth quarter. This new car, Extreme Krypton, will give up the pure electric route and provide two power modes of pure electric and super electric hybrid. An Conghui did not disclose more details of the new power form during the earnings call, only saying that the Extreme Krypton super electric hybrid system will be released in the future. It is a new power form that combines the advantages of pure electric, plug-in hybrid and range extension technology, ensuring that in all pure electric driving experiences, high-speed energy consumption and mileage can be taken into account.

As for how to distinguish the market positioning of Extreme Krypton and Lynk & Co., An Conghui said that there is no conflict between the Extreme Krypton and Lynk & Co brands. "We have a brand management committee within our company to strictly manage each of our brands to ensure that there is no overlap between products." Secondly, from the perspective of brand positioning, Extreme Krypton is positioned as a high-end luxury brand, while Lynk & Co is positioned as a mid-to-high-end brand, so at the brand level, the two have their own characteristics. Extreme Krypton’s large SUV is a product developed based on a vast architecture. The high platform and generalization characteristics of this architecture help to maximize cost-effectiveness.

In addition to the large flagship SUV, Krypton also has a new hunting vehicle based on the 007 architecture, which will be launched next year.

In response to the model replacement controversy: there is no annual iteration plan for three models such as the new polar krypton 009 in the coming year

Geely Automobile also released its semi-annual report on the same day that Geely Automobile disclosed its first-half results. At Geely Automobile’s mid-term results conference, An Conghui publicly responded for the first time to the controversy caused by the replacement of the two models of JK 001 and 007.

"I think people will definitely ask this question today," he admitted. "Before the launch, there was indeed a lack of communication with users, which caused some complaints and complaints from users."

An Conghui said that the new polar krypton 009, as well as the 2025 polar krypton 001,Polar Krypton 007From the date of product release, there is no annual iteration plan for the next year; however, the normal OTA software upgrades or optional configuration changes for vehicles will still be maintained.

In addition, for the Mobileye smart driving system used by Extreme Krypton in the early stage, An Conghui said that "it will continue to develop and iterate", and will retain Mobileye smart driving system products in China.

The model replacement storm originated a week ago. On August 13, Extreme Krypton released 2025 Extreme Krypton 001 and 2025 Extreme Krypton 007. The price was 259,000 yuan and 209,900 yuan respectively, causing controversy.

Since 2023, Krypton 001 has undergone three renovations, and the replacement cycle has been continuously compressed. The 2025 new car has been updated in less than half a year. Among them, the old model cannot be upgraded to Haohan Smart Drive 2.0 because of the Mobileye smart drive solution.

"Extreme Krypton will focus on software iteration next, so that users can have a better intelligent experience, and the smart driving function of the Mobileye solution will continue to develop and iterate." An Conghui explained that the original intention of the rapid iteration of Extreme Krypton products is to hope that users can quickly use the latest technology and better product experience. "How to solve the relationship between product iteration and old users in the future is a difficult and correct thing."
