Low-end light trucks face life and death


After implementing the National III Standard next year, the light-card market may usher in the test.

The newspaper (Reporter Wang Canbin's photography report) "The implementation of the National III standard may increase the cost of light trucks by 20,000 yuan, which may be a catastrophe for low-end light trucks." Will be implemented on January 1 next year On the eve of the III standard, Lin Wei, secretary-general of the China Light Commercial Vehicles Federation, was very worried when interviewed by this newspaper.

The light truck is the largest share of China's commercial vehicles. Its annual sales volume is about 700,000 vehicles, of which the low-end light trucks account for about 1/3 of the total light trucks.

The cost may double

Lin Wei’s concern is justified. The low-end light trucks are between 30,000 and 50,000 yuan, and the increase of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan is basically 50% of the price of existing light trucks, and even 100% of the price of low-end light trucks. Users are certainly unacceptable to major manufacturers. It is also a painful turning point. “Only the products that were previously sold by some of the manufacturers were not even met, and it was very difficult to realize the leap to State III.” For the previously considered to be a serious impact by the State III standard, the growth was extremely rapid. The heavy truck, Lin Wei believes that because the price of the heavy truck itself is relatively high, it is basically between 200,000 and 300,000 yuan, and the proportion of the price of 30 thousand yuan is even less than 10%, and the impact is relatively slight.

Although the National III standard has caused many commercial vehicle companies to be injured, Lin Wei believes that such pains must be sustained. “The major cities have serious traffic jams and serious pollution. The National III standard is an inevitable trend.”

Compared with the previous implementation of State I, State II, the implementation of State III means that the engine should be transformed from mechanical to electronic, the key is the upgrade of the engine fuel injection system. Second, even if the engine reaches the national III level, there is still a problem of oil matching. The long-term use of State III vehicles with fuel that does not meet the requirements will damage vehicle performance. At the same time, the State III vehicle uses an electronic engine. When it encounters an internal engine control system failure, it must use a professional fault diagnostic instrument to perform inspections and repairs. It must not be dismantled.

Turn to the rural market

The National III standard to be implemented on January 1st next year is not the limit for the following models under the National II standard. Because PetroChina and Sinopec are not able to provide oil products that meet the National III standard throughout the country, there are too many aspects involved. Therefore, Lin Wei believes that even if implemented nationwide, there is at least a buffer period. This buffer period may be 3 Months or between six months, it is possible to begin implementation on July 1 next year, and some manufacturers should seize this time to adjust. Lin Wei said that because after this period of buffering, in the face of rapidly rising prices, the market may usher in a "shock" period (no one buys), but as long as all the national standard III products, the market may slowly accept.

Lin Wei said that the impact of the National III Standard on the low-end light trucks is much greater than that of the high-end light trucks. The high-end light truck III standard stands firm in large and medium-sized cities, and enterprises that cannot resist can ultimately turn to rural and township markets. Because there is no hard-to-regulate China III standard, light-duty truck companies can sell in the name of agricultural vehicles and apply for a catalogue of agricultural vehicles in the New Automobile Catalog of the National Development and Reform Commission.

The reporter also noticed that Jianghuai Automobile has started to use its idle five-leaf “Five-leaf” brand of agricultural products. Fukuda, the largest light-duty truck company in China, has also strengthened its production capacity of agricultural vehicles in Zhucheng, Shandong and Changsha, Hunan. Yuejin and Dongfeng are also low-end. The agricultural vehicle was replanned. It seems that major light truck manufacturers have begun to look at the agricultural vehicles that they have always considered to be "chicken ribs."
