The light car market in 2011 was very lively. At present, companies such as JAC, Dongfeng, SAIC, and Changan have started wading into the high-end light passenger market. Some companies have officially launched products, and some companies are still in their infancy.
The first entrants in the light car market have basically completed supporting systems, and Futian, Jiangling and Qingling have their own engine bases. Every light vehicle manufacturer is snatching engine supporting resources. It can even be said that there is no independent engine supporting system and it is untenable in the industry.
Highly warm independent engine system
According to the production and sales data of the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, in May 2011, the top five manufacturers of light trucks sold were Futian, Dongfeng, Jianghuai, Jinbei and Jiangling, which sold 35,400 vehicles and 20,700 vehicles, respectively. There were 19,200, 11,600 and 10,900 vehicles.
According to relevant person in charge of Beijing Futian Environmental Protection Power Co., Ltd., Foton has its own engine production base, mainly for Futian light vehicles, a small amount exported to overseas markets. Jiangling and Qingling have also established their own engine production bases, mainly internal distribution. It is understood that their engines are not exported. And only when the demand exceeds supply, it is possible to outsource the engine.
In addition, the Jiangling Motors sales company Quanshun brand manager said: Jiangling has its own engine production base, mainly for Jiangling light vehicles to do support. In the light-vehicle engine market, Futian and JAC are also building their own engine supporting systems, from the low to the high end.
It is reported that there are four parts of Jiangling Motor’s current matching engine: the first is the 4JB1 engine introduced from Isuzu and its improved type (called JX493 series inside Jiangling, applied to the light truck); the second is the Mitsubishi 4G6 series engine; The domestic CY4D115 (Dongfeng Chaochai) and YC4E140 (Yuchai) are used on the Kaiwei light trucks; the fourth is Ford's two engines, DURATEC (Transit Commercial Vehicle) and JX4D24 (Yusheng SUV).
In 2010, JAC partnered with Navistar of the United States to lay out engine resources. According to its plan, light-duty diesel engines will reach an annual output of 180,000 units covering 2.4 to 15 liters. This move not only consolidates the status of the JAC light trucks and enhances the competitiveness of light vehicles, but also improves the light vehicle industry chain and eliminates the situation in which its business is subject to the Isuzu engine. It is learnt that Jianghuai earlier on the engine of high-end light vehicles rely too much on the evolution of the Isuzu 4JB1 JAC 4DA1 engine.
Nanjing Iveco Engine is a Sino-foreign joint venture engine company jointly invested by Yuejin Auto Group and Italian Fiat Group Iveco Co., Ltd. It mainly supplies Sophim 8140.43 series light engines.
In addition to independent supporting systems, each light vehicle company also cooperates with major domestic engine manufacturers to improve the product lineage. According to report, the Jinbei light vehicle uses the Dachai 498 engine, the Yunnei 490 engine, the Xichai 485/490 engine and the Xichai 485/490 engine. Jianghuai Automobile also recently announced related issues related to cooperation with Yuchai Power.
Dongfeng Chaochai's engines in light trucks are mainly supplied to JAC, Dongfeng, Fukuda and other companies. Light passengers are mainly JAC vehicles.
High-end market lures
In the light-duty vehicle market in 2011, high-end light passengers are the ones with higher attention. For example, the newly entered Jianghuai Xingrui, SAIC Chase, Dongfeng Yufeng and the newly established Changan Light Vehicle Division, all of which are mainly high-end models to play products.
Ever since, the capacity of high-end light passengers' market has not been large, with brands such as Iveco and Quanshun as the mainstay. However, the profits and market benefits of high-end light passengers have led to the participation of more and more companies. However, it is worth paying attention to how new entrants get engine supporting resources.
Some companies have their own engine plants, such as Jiangling Transit and Nanjing Iveco. Changan Automobile, which had just established the Light Vehicle Division at the beginning of the year, mainly acquired Yunnei Power and cooperated with Cummins. SAIC Chase MAXUS V80 is powered by Italian diesel engine manufacturer VM Motori. It is reported that VM Motori’s engine for the SAIC Chase MAXUS V80 is a 2.5-liter diesel engine with a maximum power of 88 kW/4000 Rpm and a maximum output torque of 300 N•m/2000 Rpm. The transmission may be a Hyundai Wia 5-speed manual transmission.
Under normal circumstances, new entrants may directly acquire mature engine plants and will not start from scratch. Starting from scratch is an unwise behavior. Only by making effective use of existing resources and strengthening cooperation with light vehicle engine manufacturers can we enter the market faster.
Costs skyrocketing companies need to grab resources
The competition in the high-end light passenger market is increasingly fierce, and the cost of the engine is also getting higher and higher. The engine is the core component of the entire vehicle. If a complete engine supporting system is not established, it will be easily controlled by people and lack market competitiveness. Therefore, many companies are now scrambling for resources. At present, most domestic light vehicle manufacturers have their own engine plants. As long as there is a little fluctuation in engine supporting resources, it will have a great impact on the entire sales work. To develop and grow, vehicle companies must have a strong desire to control engine resources. This is definitely a trend.
In addition to the fierce market competition that has caused companies to seize resources, the proportion of engines that occupy the cost of the entire vehicle has become higher and higher, and companies have increasingly attached importance to the engine. Light car companies are rushing to grab engine resources. If an engine plant is not established, the likelihood of success in light vehicles will be reduced. For example, the State III engine accounts for about 40% of the total vehicle cost. In other words, to buy a 90,000 to 100,000 yuan light passengers, the engine probably accounts for 40,000 -5 million. As emissions increase, the cost of the engine will be higher.
This is true for low-end vehicles. If the engine meets the National III and National IV standards, the cost will certainly increase, but the upgrade space for the vehicle will be limited. The purchasing power of high-end and high-end user groups is relatively high. When the price of vehicles increases, this group of users is acceptable. More and more companies are concerned about the high-end light passenger market, because high profits, strong user acceptance, high-end development is certainly a trend.
In addition, diversified user needs must have diversified solutions to deal with. It is reported that in Foton Cummins's light vehicle products, users can choose SCR and EGR. The industry is controversial about the advantages and disadvantages of the two technical routes of SCR and EGR. Both of these technical routes have their own advantages and disadvantages. The SCR can maximize the engine power, thereby increasing the vehicle's fuel economy by 2%-3%, but the tail gas aftertreatment costs more. EGR is a relatively low-cost solution. The disadvantage is that it can cause a loss of engine power, which in effect generates additional fuel consumption. Currently, Foton Cummins has made a reserve of these two technical routes, and users can choose the right solution according to their needs.
