Volkswagen and Volvo intend to commercialize high-end commercial vehicles in China

On May 29, a member of the Board of Directors of the Volkswagen Group Commercial Vehicles Ren Xerox and the CEO of MAN Trucking Bus Company Dress visited China National Heavy Duty Truck. Ren Xer said that cooperation between VW Group and China National Heavy Duty Truck Group is promising in many aspects. It is hoped that both sides will continue to expand cooperation projects and further strengthen cooperation.

In fact, prior to this, on May 5, Volkswagen established a commercial vehicle group to integrate its commercial vehicle brands such as Scania and MAN to create synergies and reduce costs. Foreign media pointed out that VW's move aims to build the world's largest commercial vehicle alliance.

　　


It can be seen that the public is trying to gain more benefits in the commercial vehicle market through this move. Naturally, it will not miss the world's largest truck market, the Chinese market. Both Man and Scania are pioneer brands of high-end commercial vehicles. Volkswagen will certainly not allow them to miss the high-end process of China's commercial vehicle market. .

At the 7th China Auto Blue Book Forum recently, He Mochi, executive director of the Scania China Strategic Center, once stated that the new normal state of the Chinese auto market is a new change that Scania has waited for for many years. The new normal means that the market plays a decisive role in the allocation of resources. This requires fair competition. After the fair competition, the market for high-end brands will come.

It seems that Scania, which has been tepid for 50 years in China, has been sticking here, waiting for the high-end of the Chinese market.

In addition, recently, Mr. Gu Runde, CFO of the Volvo Group and acting CEO of the Volvo Group, visited the testing center of Dongfeng Commercial Vehicle Co., Ltd. Technical Center. This move is not surprising. After all, Volvo and Dongfeng have succeeded in joining each other and it is normal to move each other. However, the exchanges and meetings between the two sides at least mean that the high-end process of Volvo and Dongfeng Commercial Vehicles will accelerate.


Multinational parts giants stare at high-end commercial vehicles

Recently, Fleur Group announced in a high profile that it will open up China's truck market with a new attitude. “The Schaeffler Group has leading products and solutions in the chassis, gearbox and engine sectors of trucks, and it can become a reliable partner for heavy trucks and commercial vehicle companies in China,” said Yang Hanbing, president of Schaeffler Automotive Division in Greater China.

Schaeffler believes that there is great potential for upward growth in the Chinese truck market. Specifically, fuel consumption, emissions, safety and driving comfort are key factors. Schaeffler is committed to the development of lower-friction, higher-efficiency and better-cost automotive bearing products and future-oriented mechatronic solutions that will provide truck operators with cost optimization, reduced emissions and improved fuel economy. Multi-faceted benefits.

This time, Schaeffler has not been idle, and has conducted technical exchange meetings with Dongfeng and Sinotruk to promote its truck chassis (wheel hub bearing units, low-friction tapered roller bearings, etc.) and gearboxes (gearboxes). Bearings, damping and clutch products, etc., and engines (variable cam timing systems, valve mechanisms, accessory drives, etc.)

Like Schaeffler, Johnson Controls' high-end car seat brand RECARO also made it clear that it wanted to expand the high-end seating market for commercial vehicles in China. “We are looking for a high-end seat business in the international market. China is clearly the most important market.” Markus, vice president of RECARO Commercial Vehicle Seating, admitted frankly.

Suppliers such as Eaton, which owns a full range of commercial vehicle transmissions, have also changed their development strategies in response to changes in the Chinese commercial vehicle market. For example, for the first time in 12-speed AMTs launched in China, the company used the Fastbox for the first time. The "cost reduction" new tricks technique; first introduced medium-sized AMT, began targeting China's medium-sized commercial vehicle market. Eaton looks forward to opening up the Chinese market even more.
