On April 21, the first batch of European orders for Deep Blue S07 officially rolled off the assembly line in Nanjing Changan Automobile Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Nanjing Changan”), which is about to embark on a trip to Europe. It is reported that this is the second “made in Nanjing” new energy vehicle to enter the European market this month.
The state-level 5G factory, Nanjing Chang’an, is one of the three major new energy vehicle enterprises in Lishui District, and is also the only production base of Deep Blue S07. Since its launch in July last year, Deep Blue S07 has received an enthusiastic response from the market after its launch because it is equipped with Huawei’s Qiankun ADS SE intelligent driving system and Deep Blue Super Range Extension System at the same time. At more than 11 o’clock in the morning of the same day, accompanied by dynamic music, a black right-hand drive dark blue S07 slowly drove off the production line from the Nanjing Chang’an assembly workshop. “The S07, which rolls off the assembly line today, will set sail in May and arrive in the UK, Germany and Norway after 45 days and nights of sailing.” According to the deputy general manager of Nanjing Chang’an, a total of 140 European versions of the dark blue S07 rolled off the assembly line on the same day, and each of the dark blue S07 sailing to Europe has undergone a super-standard quality tempering.
Compared with the existing dark blue S07, the European version of the dark blue S07 is basically the same in appearance, but local adjustments have been made for local user habits and use environments. Li Chengzhuo, chief engineer of the S07 overseas project of Deep Blue Automobile, introduced that the European version of Deep Blue S07 has double-layer soundproof glass privacy windows, large trunks and trailer hooks that can transmit light signals, etc., and is also equipped with high-precision maps and intelligent driving systems that meet local road conditions, etc., which can support 18 language displays, as well as voice interaction in English and German. In addition, the project team has also developed a series of ecological products that are in line with the local environment, including listening to music, map navigation, etc.
“The European market access system is strict, and the development of the European version of the dark blue S07 is equivalent to participating in a rigorous examination, from the preliminary research to the European vehicle type certification (WVTA), and then to the Euro NCAP safety test five-star safety certification, it took nearly 2 years, and finally successfully launched in Europe with excellent quality.” Li Chengzhuo said.
The European market has a high barrier to entry and more opportunities. Europe remains an important market for Chinese automakers. With the advent of the era of electrification, the number of Chinese cars exported to the European market has begun to increase. Nanjing is one of the important towns of the new energy automobile industry in the Yangtze River Delta region, and in recent years, many vehicle companies in Nanjing have followed the pace of going overseas and explored overseas markets, including the European market. Earlier this month, Changan Mazda Automobile Co., Ltd. rolled off the assembly line of the new MAZDA 6e model, which will also be supplied to Europe, Southeast Asia and other global markets. It is reported that the starting price of dark blue S07 in the EU market is 45,000 euros, since the press conference held in Germany in March, it has received orders from a number of European dealers, and its sales market has increased to 51 overseas countries and regions, and the total export volume is expected to be nearly 50,000 units this year
