Are you waiting for inexpensive Volkwagen car?

Hanover - Are you waiting for inexpensive Volkwagen car to be owned? In fact,  you are unneccessary  to wait for owning this cheap car.

Volkswagen supervisory board approved the birth of a new model with a target launch cheap car in China from 2017. Launched Nikkei ( 14/05/2014 ) , Martin Winterkorn , Chief Executive Officer of VW says the car is set up to target the first car owner .

Described , the current density of cars in China only 60 cars per 1,000 people , is still far behind the United States that has 800 cars to 1,000 people . So , there are many potential first-time buyers in China's consumers .



Honey Winterkorn still does not explain the specifics regarding the model being prepared , including the price , just saying that this model be produced .

Certainty cheap VW car market is not an overnight decision , because it has through various processes of " push-pull " especially in manufacturing . However , some observers expect automotive , VW still keep prices cheap car is to remain competitive with similar products that were mushrooming in the world . One was " to keep prices under 7,000 euros (USD 109.1 million ) and marketed using another brand , " Nikkei said .

brand
Besides the price , it is interesting to be decided when entering into an easy car segment is the brand used . This option would reflect the seriousness of Europe 's largest car brands foray into low-cost car market . Matter of choice , VW actually have choices because a lot of experience working in the global automotive industry .

Imitate rivals , Nissan's example , who chose to revive the Datsun brand to enter the low-cost car segment . Step intuition surprising for some, but it still has a strong heritage of the Nissan brand . If Volkswagen did a similar option , then the public can see that VW is really 100 percent bet on this plan .

In Germany , some rumors also had terdenar if VW Beetle would separate into independent trademark . If this option is selected , it can be said VW just trial and error on this project and do not have a strong commitment . The reason , this name is only used for special models shaped " unique " typical Beetle .

Other allegations , VW will create a new brand with the help of partners in China . Like the Nissan also create Venucia or General Motors has Baojun . If this option, then call it a success VW elevating local brands .

With a target launch in 2017 , is quite longer than other brands that already existed in the market . Moreover , with two local partners in China , VW should automatically create two different local brands , one with FAW and SAIC other .

Cheap status
If the predictions of the industry completely , and the official price of this product ranges from 10,000 U.S. dollars, the status of low-cost car could be questioned . The reason , many local brands of China and other countries that have official price much more affordable than that . The Wulling Sunshine eg GM sold in cooperation with the tag of 6,150 U.S. dollars alone . Chevrolet Sail to go on sale with a tag of 9,120 U.S. dollars  per unit .

In order not to interfere in the future , VW should be able to cut the target price set by up to 50 percent . This segment is trying to target Datsun redi - Go concept that was showcased at the Delhi Auto Show , earlier this year .

This city car concept developed by Gerard Detoubert and ready to be launched next year in India . Trying to target a new segment under Datsun Nissan Versa and Go , directly targeting the emerging markets .

He is the Monster 821 , a motorcycle type naked roadster with a look similar but Monster 1200 Hypermotard -engined  medium class .

See at a glance , headlights , bulging order , indentation exhaust , tank up to the line , not much different from 1200. Nevertheless it does not mean exactly the same .

C600 Sport and C650 GT

California ,-  This is about C600 Sport and C650 GT made by BMW. The size is big enough.

Hundreds of big scooter made by BMW , the C600 Sport and C650 GT , which is spread all over the world , made ​​in 2012-2014 indicated problematic . Based on Transport Canada investigation , installation of improper timing chain tensioner , potentially making the chain slack . If this happens , the noise will appear and when operated , broken machine possibility of very large .

As a result , BMW do a recall , and for a while was announced in Canada and Germany . Most likely, the scooter - type scooters that have been circulating , including in the United States will also be affected , as they are made in the factory , which is in Germany .



Therefore , presumably , in the near future NHTSA will conduct a similar announcement to the consumer in the land of Uncle Sam .

BMW dealers will replace the timing chain tensioner with quality and better fitting . The number can be counted while still in Canada , which is 163 units . This number will increase , because there is no data for the number of motorcycles that have been circulating in Germany . Predicted to be more than doubled if NHTSA also announced the same thing .

What's Chinese perception about recent Japanese cars?

Shanghai ,  - What's Chinese perception about recent Japanese cars? the past always influences what they think and what will they decide.

Japanese car manufacturers continue to expand its business in China , competing consumers got heart . However , these efforts seem to still need extra work , because skeptical views about Japanese cars still negative in the eyes of the citizens .

According to research by Bernstein Research , anti- Japanese sentiment was inflamed in people's minds . Of the total of 40,000 consumers surveyed , 51 percent of people said they would not buy Japanese cars , the main reason for thinking " anti - Japanese " are still hidden in their minds .



More worried  again , this sentiment is very strong in some developing cities in China , such as Changsha , Dongguan , and Xian . These three cities are expected to sufficiently dominate car sales growth in the future .

increase
Although still strong negative sentiment , Max Warburton , analyst at Bernstein Research , in a report predicting sales of Japanese brands that partner with local companies will continue to go up sales this year . But , in the long term scheme of conditions will be " complicated " .

" Sense of nationalism would be prohibitive . Japanese premium brands need to work hard , " wrote Max reported by The Wall Street Journal . One of the most fundamental , is so large that the Chinese people want cars made in Germany . While the predicted sales of Japanese brands will continue to recover this year with improved market share , but retained control of the German brand .

economical
According to the survey initiated with Autohome ( local sites of China ) , Chinese consumers see Japanese cars more economical to own , and more comfortable than the brand of Germany or the United States . Japanese brands are also considered far superior to artificial South Korea, such as Hyundai or Kia .

Nissan , for example , Japan's best-selling brand in China , is positioned as a product for older people with an average income lower . This conclusion is considered to Max as a concern .

Still, sales of the manufacturer will still go up thanks to the launch of several new models by Nissan . Max even predicting growth would take off quite sharply in the next two years .

Japanese car manufacturer hopes to share in the premium car market that continues to grow in China . However , only 41 percent of those surveyed intend to want to buy a car with a price tag upwards of 300,000 yuan . They are still opening up, the possibility of purchasing premium cars made ​​in Japan . This result is lower than 49 percent of Chinese acceptance of mass brands from other countries .
