The story of building a cart can be traced back to 20 17, when Jia Yueting joined hands to become a shareholder in FF. However, after the confrontation and confrontation between the two sides on the company's management rights and other issues, it finally fell through, and Evergrande with deep pockets decided to give up the mess of FF and start a new stove.
Evergrande, which re-started on the road of building cars, seems to have started the light speed mode and staged an unprecedented drama of exchanging money for time in the field of building cars. From the acquisition of NEVS in Sweden in early October19 to the investment in Shenyang in June, in just half a year, Evergrande spent more than RMB 10 billion to acquire vehicle companies, battery companies and hub motor companies, set up joint ventures with Koenigsegg, and plans to invest nearly RMB 300 billion in Guangzhou and Shenyang.
It is understood that Evergrande will achieve an annual output of 1 10,000 vehicles, 50GWh power batteries, 1 10,000 sets of motors and electronic control systems after the completion of the three new energy vehicle bases in Nansha District, Guangzhou.
In Shenyang Evergrande New Energy Automobile Base, R&D and vehicle production base will be located in Hunnan District of Shenyang, and R&D and hub motor production base and power battery super factory will be located in Tiexi District.
In addition, Evergrande also announced its plan to build a car at the Global Strategic Partner Summit of New Energy Vehicles in March this year. Its planned annual production capacity in the first phase is 6.5438+0 million vehicles, and it will become the largest and most powerful new energy automobile group in the world in the next 3-5 years.
It is also reported that the new brand of Evergrande New Energy, namely the first model of Hengchi Automobile, will be officially unveiled in 2020 at the earliest.
Compared with the jaw-dropping "buy while buy" and "build under construction", the brand name of "Hengchi" seems to be a bit conventional and low-key, but we also hope that Hengchi can make cars "forever" as its implication says, and truly let Hengchi brand cars "ride the world" in the future.
