With the increase in car ownership, there is fierce competition for all kinds of cars.
Car buyers seem to be getting more and more options.
Cars have become a mass consumer product. The average family can basically afford to buy a car. However, oil prices have been hovering at high levels. However, the rapid development of electric vehicles does not seem to have this problem. Moreover, electric vehicles are relatively cheaper, and the cost of the later stage is relatively low. Electric vehicles seem to have brought ordinary people's "car dreams" one step further into reality.
In some large cities, buying a car is a lottery number, but electric vehicles are less troublesome, you can buy a car directly to the household, even if it is a city with a limit on traffic, the electric car is also a big "green light". In everyone's mind, it is mainly tailpipe emissions that cause air pollution, and electric vehicles obviously should not be within the scope of this limit.
In a short period of time, electric vehicles have sprung up like mushrooms.
Some of them are companies that have been making cars for a long time and have launched their own electric vehicles. More are cars that later joined the automotive field, and the breakthrough is electric vehicles, or all products are electric vehicles.
It turns out that when you drive a car on the street, you basically know what brand of car it is when you see the car logo. There may also be relatively "young" companies that started manufacturing automobiles later, but most of them are still established automobile manufacturers with a relatively "long-standing" history.
At a time when gasoline and diesel vehicles dominated the automotive industry. The new products launched by various car companies mainly focus on the performance of the engine, the comfort of driving and the safety of driving. Of course, appearance is also an intuitive factor that cannot be ignored, so many cars have their own identification characteristics, many cars even if they don't see the car logo, just look at its shape and even some parts to know what brand of car it is.
After the rise of electric vehicles, it quickly attracted the attention of many people.
After all, compared with a gasoline car, charging is a lot of savings compared to refueling in the ordinary use process.
In addition, in terms of operability, many electric vehicles are also easier to use, just like operating an electric bicycle.
Although, when the dominance of oil vehicles, many old drivers also had an emergency about the pros and cons of manual and automatic transmissions. The two most prominent issues are the fun and experiential nature of driving, the other is the question of fuel consumption, and of course there are some safety debates. With the increasing number of electric vehicles, it seems that not many people talk about this issue anymore. After all, not many people drive for fun.
Now the car driving on the street, has been dazzling, even when you see the car logo, you don't know what brand of car it is, or someone tells you what brand of car it is, you may also hear it for the first time, there may not have been this car company before, otherwise, it is newly established, or it is a transformation.
More and more enterprises and individuals are either new to the car-making industry, or they are transforming into this industry, and many are expanding into this industry. In the beginning, there was the word "crossover", and now everyone doesn't use this word, because it seems that as long as you can make one product, you can make any other unrelated product, and "crossover" is already an outdated expression.
If you go to an auto show, you will find yourself entering a "hodgepodge" of car companies, or a brand presentation, attending an auto show, and if you are willing to put in it, you can know a lot of car logos, although most of you will not know what kind of company it is. But every once in a while, if you are lucky enough to go to another car show, you will be surprised to find that you thought you had already known a lot of car logos, but you have found a lot of unfamiliar car logos, you need to know again, but you may never understand.
Are electric vehicles the way forward for the automotive industry? This question may only take time to judge and answer.
Charging is definitely the first problem, even though there are already a lot of charging stations. But it always takes a while to recharge. In addition, the problem of battery life has always repeatedly appeared in the publicity and competition of various car companies. In fact, it may be basically known that, just like a mobile phone battery, battery life is a concept, and there can never be an accurate time.
Moreover, on the one hand, the battery will have a "false" power display, and on the other hand, it will fail for various reasons. The most important thing is that its safety is often questionable in some emergency situations. Of course, the battery basically determines the actual service life of a car, and it will certainly be much lower than that of a gasoline car of the same type, and it will definitely be lower than the time it has labeled for itself.
The production of numerous electric vehicles is likely to boost the market share of electric vehicles in a short period of time. But it doesn't necessarily really drive the development of electric vehicles. In order to compete, everyone designs the appearance and piles up some so-called "technology products". Walking into the car, it is like entering a multi-** space, and there are comfortable sofas and even seats that can be turned into beds. These have also become the focus of car companies' publicity.
Safety, reliability, convenience, these are the most critical issues that are artificially overlooked many times.
In the beginning, car manufacturers will carry out rigorous tests on their own cars, including safety, extreme weather and harsh conditions, and hypothetical accidents of all kinds. In addition to improving performance, safety and reliability are the biggest selling points and guarantees.
If everyone puts their minds and energy on the outside, and the core is deliberately avoided. Even the best ideas and technologies can lose momentum under this false façade and fall into chaos. Then it really becomes a kind of chaos caused by "regression", and the gains outweigh the losses.
