It is said that Jianghuai Automobile will be renamed as Jiang Qi Volkswagen. Is there no smoke without fire?

Recently, some media reported that with Volkswagen's capital increase for Jianghuai Automobile, it has been approved by the Anhui Provincial Development and Reform Commission for the record. "Jianghuai Automobile will be renamed Jiang Qi Volkswagen", and Jianghuai insiders replied that "we have not heard such news internally, which is untrue."

The automobile industry will not be groundless, but there is no smoke without fire. Think about the joint venture between JAC and Volkswagen, and many news have been confirmed.

Look at this news:

First, Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group Co., Ltd. was renamed as Jiang Qi Volkswagen Co., Ltd.;

Secondly, "Jianghuai Volkswagen Co., Ltd." will be renamed as "Volkswagen (Anhui) Holdings Co., Ltd.";

Finally, the name of the listed company "6004 18 Jianghuai Automobile" was changed to "6004 18 Jiang Qi Volkswagen".

It can be said that there is a nose and eyes. Judging from the capital increase of both parties, Volkswagen invested 65.438 billion euros to win the parent company of Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group Co., Ltd.-? 50% of Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group Holding Co., Ltd., that is, the news will be renamed as? Does the word "Volkswagen" deserve to be added to the 50% shares of Jianghuai Automobile Group, Jiang Qi Volkswagen Co., Ltd.?

At the same time, Volkswagen's shareholding in Jianghuai Volkswagen, an electric vehicle joint venture company, increased to 75%, and obtained the right to operate the joint venture company, realizing the transformation of enterprise management mode. Whether it is renamed as "Volkswagen (Anhui) Holdings Co., Ltd.", the fact that Volkswagen holds shares.

Whether Jianghuai Automobile Group is renamed as "Jiang Qi Volkswagen Co., Ltd." or Jianghuai Volkswagen is renamed as "Volkswagen Holdings", it will help to enhance the brand image of Jianghuai Automobile with public appeal.

In May, Volkswagen China Investment, Jiang Qi Holdings and the local state-owned assets department signed a letter of intent for capital increase.

In June, the three parties formally signed the Investment Agreement on Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group Holding Co., Ltd., clearly stipulating that Volkswagen China will invest 2.383 billion yuan to acquire Jiang Qi Holdings? 50% of the shares, and at the same time increase the shares of Jianghuai Volkswagen, a joint venture company of electric vehicles, to 75%.

165438+1October 3, JAC Automobile Group officially confirmed that JAC Volkswagen's capital increase has been filed by Anhui Development and Reform Commission.

In six months, JAC has transformed from its own brand into the third joint venture company of Volkswagen. Although FAW-Volkswagen and SAIC-Volkswagen are not optimistic about it, it is an undeniable fact.

Judging from the cooperation between Audi and FAW in new energy vehicles, Audi will occupy more dominance in the new company, and the company name may have a new look, so even if Jianghuai Volkswagen changes its name, it is not unacceptable. At present, the Volkswagen series is dominated by FAW-Volkswagen and SAIC-Volkswagen, and it is really not easy for Jianghuai to share a piece of it. Sihao brand, which focuses on pure electric vehicles, has actually launched the first fuel vehicle, Sihao X8, which is also a rebranding product of Jianghuai autonomous passenger cars. How perfunctory is this? Third, it is not easy.

Volkswagen plans Jianghuai Volkswagen to launch five pure electric vehicles before 2025, and at the same time establish and improve the electric vehicle factory and R&D center. It can be predicted that the new model of JAC Volkswagen will not be the current Volkswagen series, but will be newly developed with JAC.

In the future, how to differentiate the pure electric products of FAW-Volkswagen, SAIC-Volkswagen and JAC-Volkswagen is a challenge that the public needs to face directly.
