As the last financing before IPO, this financing will set the largest single private financing in the domestic new energy automobile industry, far exceeding the financing scale of the new forces of pre-IPO. Corresponding to the current valuation of Ai 'an, it will be the highest valuation of unlisted new energy automobile companies so far, and Ai 'an has created two industry records.

Form the layout of the whole industrial chain. In the face of more intense industry competition in the future, we will continue to maintain a leading position.
Why is Ai 'an, which created two records, favored by capital?
It is undoubtedly a major event in the capital circle that Ai 'an A round of capital increase leads to war. As a new model of state-owned enterprise reform, it has attracted much attention from the capital market.
We have the superior resources of Guangzhou Automobile Group's globalization system, build an agile organizational system and respond to market changes with the highest efficiency. According to the plan, since the mixed reform was officially launched on August 30 last year, Ai 'an has successively completed asset restructuring and realized the integration of "research, production and marketing"; Completed employee equity incentive, created a unique "Ai 'an model" mixed reform, built a dynamic and competitive system and mechanism in industrial transformation, and set a new example for the reform of state-owned enterprises. The rapid and orderly advancement of mixed reform has enhanced the confidence of investors and the market. No wonder this round of financing of Ai 'an can break the industry record.
Secondly, as the first EV+ICV full-stack self-developed vehicle enterprise in China, Aian insists on scientific and technological innovation, and independently developed magazine battery, super two-speed battery, sponge silicon negative plate battery and microcrystalline super lithium-iron battery, redefining the new safety standard of new energy vehicles. In terms of intelligent driving, ADiGO, which is self-developed by the whole stack? 4.0 Intelligent driving interconnection ecosystem, over-the-horizon call parking, urban NDA, intelligent cockpit technology and AION LX L4 Robotaxi with car-class pre-installation status have brought users a brand-new experience.
From June to July, the cumulative sales volume of 65438 Aian exceeded 125300, up by 138% year-on-year, and it continued to lead the new energy vehicle market, and its leading position in the industry gradually became prominent. The average selling price of AION household products has exceeded 6.5438+0.8 million yuan, ranking first in the core mainstream consumer market in the price range of 6.5438+0-250,000 yuan. At the Chengdu Auto Show on August 26th, Aian launched the heavy-duty model-the 2023 AION V PLUS, and the best-selling model of the large space technology SUV evolved again. As the only intelligent pure electric 7-seat model in the class of 200,000, it is bound to lead Ai 'an to sell well with high quality and reach new heights.
The announcement on August 25 also mentioned that it will invest 654.38+009 billion yuan to set up a battery company, plus the previously released 265.438+060 billion yuan to design an electric drive company and 4.96 billion yuan to set up an energy science and technology company, and join hands with the head lithium battery company Ganfeng Lithium Industry to enter the lithium mine industry. In the next big chess game, Ai Safety has opened up the layout of the energy ecological industrial chain including upstream raw materials, research and development, manufacturing, battery recycling and cascade utilization.

From this point of view, the valuation of 654.38 billion yuan after this round of investment in Ai 'an has become the highest valuation of unlisted new energy automobile companies so far, worthy of the name.
Therefore, the competition in the new energy market in the future can't rely solely on products, and "product+ecology" is the key, and Ai 'an knows this well.
There is hope for the future.
It is no accident that Ai 'an Round A broke two records in a row.
