　　International online car channel news: Recently, the sales data released by Geely Automobile shows that Geely Automobile’s total sales in 2021 1.328 million vehicles, and its production and sales have exceeded one million vehicles for five consecutive years. Among them, the sales of "trendy series" continue to lead the independent brand small SUV market. In December, 18,261 units were sold, setting a new monthly sales record since its listing.

Geely Automobile Sales

　　The hot-selling "global champion car" is full of young people

　　In 2021, with the "Guochao" revival, Generation Z young people have gradually become the main consumer, and Chinese auto brands have ushered in a good situation of increasing sales and market share at the same time. According to the data of the China Automobile Association, as of November, the sales of passenger cars in the Chinese auto market 19.06 million, an increase of 7.1% year-on-year. Among them, the market share of independent brands reached 44.1%, an increase of 6.4 percentage points year-on-year, the highest in history. In the small SUV market, which has long been dominated by joint venture brands, Colorful is even more sought after by Generation Z young people.

Geely Binyue

　　In 2021, Colorful won the sales championship of its own brand small SUV for three consecutive years, ranking among the top three in the small SUV market. In December, it sold 18,261 units, up 6.9% month-on-month, setting a new historical monthly sales record again. In August 2021, the newly advanced Colorful with its trendy color scheme, hard-core power control and leapfrog intelligent configuration accurately gained insight into the needs of Generation Z young people and mastered the key to winning the young market. Not only that, Colorful also sold well in 20 countries around the world, including the Philippines, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Belarus, Qatar, Lebanon, Malaysia, Myanmar, Costa Rica, Chile, etc., making the "China tide" attract worldwide attention.

　　"Refuse to lie flat" Insight into people’s hearts, and product strength is fully advanced

　　Geely Binyue, who "refuses to lie flat", has become the dream car of many Generation Z in 2021. As the first SUV model of Geely’s BMA architecture, its natural good foundation gives Binyue more room for evolution.

Geely Binyue

　　Outstanding power, with 1.5TD + 7DCT and 1.4T + 6DCT/6MT three sets of golden power combinations, the 1.5TD version model’s 100-kilometer acceleration of 7.9S far exceeds the same level, and the 1.4T version’s comprehensive fuel consumption is as low as 6.1L for 100 kilometers. At the same time, it also provides driving fun combinations such as ejection start, track mode, and exhaust sound waves to meet the needs of different types of users. It is rich in technology and configuration, with more than 20 intelligent safety configurations including AEB & AEB-P urban pre-collision system, ELKA lane emergency avoidance, and RPA remote control parking. The latest upgraded Geely Galaxy OS system virtual assistant is online in real time, making Colorful a travel partner of Generation Z.

　　"Generation Z" co-creates and creates "champion word-of-mouth"

　　Since Geely Binyue has been listed for 38 months, the market heat and word-of-mouth praise have been high, confirming the success of Binyue’s product strength and youthful strategy. In 2021, the landing of Geely’s first user co-created brand "We" interpreted Geely Automobile’s "user-centered" concept. There are also a series of youthful communication strategies, which continue to deepen the "battle" spirit of Binyue. In the New Colorful Basketball Rising Star Selection Finals held in September 2021, the national men’s basketball coach Du Feng and CBA star player Fang Shuo attended the scene to watch and guide, providing young people who love basketball with a chance to realize their dreams. It is also a deep interaction between New Colorful and Generation Z young people.

　　Buy is earn, Colorful becomes the "King of Preservation"

　　The refinement of young people lies in spending money on points. Generation Z people pay attention to personality and trends when buying a car, but they will not ignore the value of the vehicle itself. According to the "2021 China Car Value Retention Rate Ranking" released by Autohome, SUVs in the used car market have long been more value-preserving than cars. Among them, Binyue has been the "king of value preservation" of small SUVs with a three-year value retention rate of 60.95%.

Whether it is a single youth or a young family buying a car, a car with a good value retention rate will give users more security.

As the sales responsibility in Geely’s "trendy series", Binyue has set new sales records again and again in the fierce stock market competition, with excellent product strength and accurate insight into Generation Z. December 18,261 historical monthly sales record is a small step for Geely Binyue to challenge itself, and it is also a big step for Chinese brand small SUV to break through the joint venture.

　　When there are more and more electric vehicles on the road, consumers’ pursuits are also diversified, maybe it is the freshness of personality, maybe it is the fun of driving at will, or the hard-core technology that can sense the future in advance. As a result, the definition of "good car" is constantly being broken and reshaped.

　　A good product needs time to be meticulously crafted, remaining cutting-edge in technology and experience, and ultimately highly in line with consumers’ inner value expectations. As a pioneer in the electrification of luxury vehicles, Lexus continuously surpasses itself in the dimension of product and brand value, and uses technological innovation to drive products to better and more advanced directions to meet the changes and upgrades of users’ travel needs.

　　On February 14, two new products bearing the vision of "Lexus Electrified" – the new RZ, a native pure electric mid-sized luxury SUV, and the new generation RX, a medium and large luxury SUV, were officially launched. The new RZ launched a total of three models, with an official guide price of 369,900 yuan – 459,900 yuan, and the new generation RX launched a total of six models, with an official guide price of 405,000 yuan – 619,000 yuan. Such sincere and pragmatic pricing can be described as "reaching the hearts of the people." In the recent situation of price increases by independent brands and traditional luxury brands, it has increasingly highlighted the Lexus brand’s emphasis on the Chinese market and its determination to embrace electrification.

　　The new energy vehicle market has thus ushered in a heavyweight player. Powerful product selection, high-tech performance configuration, professional and warm service spirit have made the new RZ and RX stand out among similar competitors. Lexus has used a more unique way to integrate innovative technology and ingenious craftsmanship to inject a refreshing connotation into automotive products in the electrification era, demonstrating Lexus’ breakthroughs and evolution in exploring the road of multi-electrification.　

　　The new RZ sets a high value preservation benchmark　

　　The new RZ, as Lexus’ first BEV model based on the native pure electric platform, relies on the brand’s 30 years of electrification technology accumulation and cutting-edge technology to maximize the potential of the vehicle and reshape the driving texture. It marks a new step for Lexus on the road to electrification and starts a brand evolution with pure electric as the core.　

　　The new RZ integrates Lexus’ classic spindle design elements into the three-dimensional body, with a harmonious and dynamic posture and a long wheelbase of 2850mm for free and wide rear space. The simple and luxurious Tazuna reins concept cockpit design is centered on the driver, with a reasonable layout of the full-color head-up display HUD, LCD instrument panel and central display screen for efficient access. Large areas of environmentally friendly ecological materials create a natural and comfortable cockpit atmosphere, and the details show Lexus’s new aesthetic standards full of ritual in the electrification era.

　　Unlike the cookie-cutter pursuit of acceleration, large battery, and long battery life, Lexus does not play gimmicks and aims to bring users a driving texture that exceeds expectations. On the new RZ, it is equipped with a series of innovative technologies, including the DIRECT4 electronic dynamic four-wheel drive system. The overall handling and vehicle response can faithfully reflect the driver’s wishes, enhance control confidence, and allow users to enjoy the pure electric driving fun. It is not difficult to see from this that Lexus’ profound insights into the concept of building cars in the electrification era have brought consumers a completely different and beyond the previous product experience in the increasingly homogeneous electric vehicle market.　

　　The "kind" price of the new RZ is also surprising. As an imported luxury brand, the price of the new RZ in China is already in a low-lying area globally. Taking Europe as an example, the price of the new RZ in Spain is 73,000 – 88,000 euros (about RMB 510,000 – 610,000 yuan), and the starting price has exceeded the Chinese market, which reflects Lexus’ great sincerity for Chinese users and optimism about the world’s largest new energy vehicle market.

　　Lexus, which has long been a god of value preservation, has launched a sincere high-value preservation promise for used cars in order to eliminate consumers’ anxiety about purchasing pure electric vehicles: users who buy a new RZ can enjoy up to "90% within one year, 80% within two years, 70% within three years, and 60% within four years" when replacing Lexus brand models. It has to be said that such a value preservation service can be called "the conscience of the industry", which is a "new business card" for Lexus in the Chinese market, pushing the concept of high-quality service to a new height. 　

　　It can be said that the new RZ has revolutionized users’ previous perception of pure electric vehicles with its all-round evolutionary product value, unique new configuration and new performance. Coupled with the high value preservation commitment of the "ceiling" level, it has formed a more significant differentiation advantage, which coincides with the pursuit of Chinese users. The luxury electric vehicle market pattern is expected to be broken by Lexus.　

　　A new generation of RX "mixed" to new heights

　　With a forward-looking vision for electrification transformation, Lexus’ hybrid products have long been sold well around the world. With multiple advantages such as efficiency and performance, they have become the best choice for consumers’ low-carbon travel. As the core model of the brand, the RX series has been deeply loved by users around the world, including in China, since its launch in 1998.　

　　Now, the new RX upgraded to the fifth generation is available in China for the first time in a full-range full-hybrid lineup, achieving another leap in product power and showcasing Lexus’ new achievements in exploring the path of multi-electrification, providing consumers with practical and environmentally friendly options.

　　The newly upgraded GA-K platform has greatly improved the basic performance of the new generation of RX. The RX 350h adopts Lexus’ fourth-generation full-hybrid technology, which is better in terms of smoothness, quietness, comfort and fuel economy. Unlike other PHEV models based on fuel vehicles currently on the market, the power system of the RX 450h + is based on the brand’s mature hybrid system. It is developed to match the e-Four electric four-wheel drive system. Whether it is handling performance or pure electric battery life, it is more outstanding.　

　　The new generation of RX introduces the first high-performance hybrid model, the RX 500h F SPORT Performance, with a parallel hybrid structure for the first time, and a 2.4T turbocharged engine matched with the DIRECT4 electronic dynamic four-wheel drive system, providing an exciting driving experience.

　　In addition to the comprehensive enhancement of power performance, the active safety function also further interprets the Lexus "people-oriented" brand concept. The new generation of RX series comes standard with Lexus intelligent safety system LSS + 3.0, which adopts anthropomorphic safety design for common car safety pain points, and allows intelligent technology to intervene under the premise of ensuring safety, anticipate in advance, provide multi-faceted safety protection, and better fit the user’s driving habits.

　　Under the premise that a number of important configurations are standard in all systems, the comparative advantages of the new generation of RX three models in terms of price are even more worthy of a book. The hybrid model RX 350h has no price increase, and the starting price is the same as the old RX 300. The plug-in hybrid model RX 450h + can enjoy the green card and the purchase tax exemption policy. The high-performance hybrid model RX 500h provides a richer and more flexible package, which is full of sincerity.

　　As the main selling model, the new generation of RX offers a wealth of electrification solutions to new and old users. Its excellent product strength and competitive price are expected to promote the replacement of electrified models with traditional fuel vehicles, and achieve Lexus’ continued leadership in the medium and large luxury SUV market segment.

　　Accelerating towards an electrified future　

　　Under the trend of carbon neutrality, the huge incremental market of electric vehicles will usher in a broader development space.

　　According to the data of the Passenger Federation, the new energy penetration rate of passenger cars in China in 2022 has reached 27.6%, and the market penetration rate of new passenger cars with L2 auxiliary driving exceeds 30%. On the other hand, the data of the National Bureau of Statistics revealed that the proportion of households with cars in China is only 41.67%. From the perspective of market consumption, pure electric vehicles focus on meeting users who have increased purchase needs, while hybrid vehicles effectively solve the first purchase and exchange demands of more users. New energy vehicles are gradually expanding, accelerating the substitution process of traditional fuel vehicles.

　　Industries and markets are changing faster than expected, and electrification has therefore become an important strategic direction for Lexus’ transformation. As the world’s largest new energy vehicle market, China has provided the stage and confidence for Lexus, which has formed the Pareto Principle in the luxury car sector, to accelerate the electrification transformation.　

　　With the release of the "Lexus Electrification Vision" in 2019 as an opportunity, Lexus has further focused on advanced electrification technology and continuously enriched its electrified product lineup, including full hybrid (HEV), plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and pure electric (BEV) models, to continue to provide users with indispensable driving pleasure and a luxury experience that exceeds expectations.

　　In the future, Lexus will gradually evolve into a BEV-centric brand. In this transformation process, Lexus will continue to provide diverse power options according to the needs of different regions and users, to help achieve carbon neutrality goals.

　　Since entering China in 2005, Lexus has been attracting Chinese consumers with its unique luxury temperament and brand temperature. Starting with the launch of the new RZ and the new generation of RX, Lexus has further met the diverse needs of users for electrification. In the luxury electric vehicle market full of changes, its unique brand charm and product strength, high-specification luxury taste and hospitality will form a closer value resonance with more and more consumers, and stage a "unique view" in the luxury car market.

Recently, there has been a small upsurge in the automotive industry and the circle of potential car buyers. The cause is a Changan Mazda EZ-6 purchase invoice that has been widely circulated on the Internet. The invoice shows that the purchased model is the EZ-6 pure electric BEV version, priced at 221,800 yuan. As the first new energy product of Changan Mazda and the only model that provides range extension power in the joint venture B-class car market, the exposure of this pricing has attracted widespread attention and heated discussion.

First of all, starting from the authenticity of the invoice, we can see that the invoice was issued on August 16, more than a month earlier than the pre-sale time of the EZ-6. Normally, when a new car is launched, there is usually a time process within the car company. For a joint venture car company like Changan Mazda, it is not uncommon for both China and Japan to make joint decisions, and it is not uncommon to agree on the price two months in advance. In addition, although sensitive information such as the code on the invoice is coded, from the invoice information displayed on the invoice and the invoice seal of Changan Mazda Automobile Co., Ltd., the invoice does not seem to be fake. From the analysis of logic and clues, this invoice may be outsourced by internal personnel, and it is very likely to be true. Since the authenticity of the invoice is high, the price of the 221,800 yuan marked on it is very likely to be the final price of the EZ-6.

Since the EZ-6 made its debut at the 2024 Beijing Auto Show, the car has quickly become one of the hottest sedans in the JV new energy field. It has attracted wide attention not only because it stands at the forefront of the JV new energy field in terms of styling design, but also because it is currently the only model in the JV B-class sedan market to provide range-extending power options, filling the gap of the JV brand in this field and further enriching consumer choices.

Looking at the product details of the EZ-6, first of all, in terms of body size, its length, width and height are 4921/1890/1485mm, the wheelbase is 2895mm, and it adopts a frameless door and a hatchback design. These elements combine to make its overall shape more towards new energy, while designs such as the through taillights and four round barrel lights on both sides still retain the shadow of Mazda’s classic design.

In terms of power system, the EZ-6 has two forms of pure electric and extended range, and adopts a rear-drive layout. The power parameters of the pure electric version are 190kW, while the extended range version uses the same 1.5-liter range extender, and the power parameters are exactly the same. In terms of battery life, according to known information, the battery life of the pure electric model is 480 kilometers and 600 kilometers respectively, and the two options can meet the needs of different users. The extended range version of the vehicle can achieve a long battery life of more than 1,300 kilometers on a single charge and a tank of fuel, which greatly enhances the user’s travel convenience and sense of security.

In terms of intelligent configuration, the EZ-6 shows a very high level. It is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon third-generation 8155 chip, 14.6-inch floating central control screen, full LCD instrument panel, AR-HUD head-up display, 360-degree panoramic image, 180-degree panoramic chassis and other high-tech configurations. In addition, there are luxury configurations such as Sony sound system, 64-color ambient lights and zero-gravity seats that are rare in the same class of models, which further enhance the vehicle’s class and driving enjoyment.

Let’s compare the current market situation of joint venture B-class new energy cars, the price of EZ-6 is 221,800 yuan, which is very reasonable. In contrast, the starting price of Tesla Model 3 of the same level is about 300,000 yuan, BMW i3 is higher, and Volkswagen ID7 Although the starting price is 227,700 yuan, its configuration is inferior to EZ-6. It can be said that Changan Mazda EZ-6 shows obvious competitive advantages in terms of price, configuration and market positioning.

Combined with Mazda’s consistent pricing strategy, we can predict that the price range of EZ-6 will be between 18-240,000 yuan. If the pre-sale policy is coupled with preferential strength, the competitiveness of EZ-6 will be more obvious, which is bound to have a huge impact on the existing joint venture new energy model market.

It is reported that the Changan Mazda EZ-6 will start pre-sale on September 28 and is scheduled to be officially launched at the end of October. At that time, it will be revealed whether this high-profile joint venture new energy car will become the new favorite in the market. Let’s look forward to the official debut of the EZ-6 together, and welcome readers to share your views and expectations of this car in the comment area, and discuss whether you think the pricing is reasonable.
