It can be seen that Nezha Auto is constantly expanding its overseas market. At present, its products have been exported to ASEAN, South America and the Middle East. At the same time, it is also the first new car-making force to be listed in Thailand and Malaysia and deliver new cars. In addition, Nezha Auto also opened the first overseas vehicle factory in Thailand.
Regarding the development of Nezha Auto, CEO of Nezha Auto revealed that in the next three years, Nezha Auto’s overseas revenue should be 20%-30% and 40%-50% in the overseas market within five years.
At present, the product price of Nezha automobile covers the price range of 100,000-300,000 yuan, and the models cover three body forms, namely sports car, coupe and SUV. The power is from pure electric to extended range, and the products are very rich.

nextev
June sales: 10,707 vehicles, down 17% year-on-year.
The data shows that in June, Weilai Automobile delivered a total of 10,707 new cars, up 74% from the previous month and down 17% year-on-year. Among them, 6,383 high-end intelligent electric SUVs and 4,324 high-end intelligent electric cars were delivered. From January to June 2023, Weilai delivered a total of 54,561 new cars. Up to now, Weilai has delivered a total of 344,117 new cars.
From the data point of view, since June, Weilai’s sales volume has obviously improved, and the sales volume has exceeded 10,000. The simultaneous listing and delivery of the new ES6 helped Weilai’s sales, and the popularity of new cars on the Internet was high, which gave birth to an increase in orders.
Then, Weilai adjusted the user’s rights and the price of all models. The price of all new cars was lowered by 30,000 yuan, and the lifetime free power exchange was cancelled. The warranty period of the whole vehicle was adjusted from 10 years of unlimited mileage to 6 years or 150,000 kilometers, 6 years of free car networking and lifetime free road rescue.
At the same time, Weilai said that after June 12, free power exchange will no longer be used as the basic car rights, and users can choose to pay for power exchange at a single time. Weilai will launch a flexible power-on-energy package thereafter.
Regarding this adjustment, Weilai Li Bin responded that this adjustment has been discussed internally for a long time and listened to the opinions and suggestions of some users. There are too many aspects to consider, and they are still being deliberated at three o’clock today. "Now is the most appropriate time to release", there must be some thoughtless places, and everyone can’t be satisfied.
For the delivery expectation in the second half of this year, Li Bin said at the conference call in the first quarter of 2023: "We are confident to achieve the sales target of delivering 20,000 new cars every month." This price cut may be the "killer" for Li Bin to achieve its goal.
Weilai Automobile’s actions don’t stop there. On June 15th, ET5 Travel Edition was launched, and the price of the new car was the same as that of the car, which caused a heated discussion in the industry. The car adopts pure electric mode, the overall design is more popular with young people, and the cockpit space and trunk space are very advantageous, as well as the towing function, which can be used for both general family use and travel.
On June 28th, Weilai brand-new ES8 was delivered. As the first owner of the brand-new ES8, Yu Minhong went to Weilai to pick up the car that day, and the chairman Li Bin delivered it himself. In addition, Weilai EC6 also completed the new car declaration in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology in February this year, and it is expected to be released and listed in the third quarter of this year.
On June 30th, Weilai announced the launch of 51 charging and replacing stations, including 29 Weilai replacing stations, 18 Weilai super charging stations and 4 destination charging stations. In this regard, Li Bin issued a document in Weibo, saying that 51 charging and replacing power stations were put into operation in a single day, and the speed of infrastructure construction increased.
In addition, as of June 30, 2023, there were 1,543 Weilai power stations, including 423 expressway power stations, 2,767 charging stations and 16,367 charging piles, and 740,000+third-party charging piles were connected to provide users with more convenient charging and replacing conditions.
In 2023, Weilai will set the sales target at 250,000 vehicles. Weilai said that it is currently in the acceleration stage of cornering. With the arrival of new ES6 and ET5 series models, the sales volume will also be improved.

At present, the problem that needs to be solved urgently in Xpeng Motors is sales volume. The price of Tucki G6 launched this time is low. According to Xpeng Motors, the pre-sale order of Tucki G6 has exceeded 35,000. If the production capacity can keep up, it will help Xpeng Motors to make a turnaround in sales volume.
