Hezhong New Energy, which insists on "long-distance running," will receive "double qualifications." Who will be the next?

On May 17th, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology released the 308th batch of “Announcement of Road Motor Vehicle Manufacturing Enterprises and Products” (hereinafter referred to as the “Announcement”). In the list of new vehicle manufacturers to be released, “Zhejiang Hezhong New Energy Vehicle” Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Hexin New Energy) is impressively listed. According to public information, Hezhong New Energy is a “new pure electric passenger vehicle manufacturer” registered at the address: Room 206, No. 999, Qingfeng South Road, Tongxiang Economic Development Zone, Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, and the production address is at Tongtong Street, Tongxiang City, Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province. Tongren Road No. 988.

According to public information, Hezhong New Energy was established in 2014 and is regarded as an emerging car company that was born earlier in China. In April 2017, it received the 13th new energy vehicle production license issued by the National Development and Reform Commission. Even so, Hezhong New Energy has always been unusually low-key, and rarely even sees reports related to it. Until recently, its new energy intelligent manufacturing base in Tongxiang, Zhejiang Province was completed. It was only in the industry that this low-key and pragmatic new army was built.

It is understood that Hezhong New Energy Tongxiang wisdom factory covers an area of ​​more than 400 acres, a total construction area of ​​96,762 square meters, an investment of 1.156 billion yuan, the first phase of the planning capacity of 80,000 units / year, including stamping workshops, paint shop , Weld shop and assembly shop complete vehicle manufacturing four major processes.

As the new plant is put into operation, the first pure electric model of the Hezhong New Energy brand will also be mass-produced and put into the market in the third quarter of this year. It is learned that the new car is superior to its class in size and space, and With smart cockpit, cruising range of more than 300 kilometers.

Zhang Yong, CEO of Hezhong New Energy, once stated that “The vehicle is not a sprint, but a long-distance running. It requires both strength and patience. Any car production requires strict quality certification and requires a variety of test and inspection. According to its introduction, Hezhong New Energy currently has more than 100 road test vehicles, and the number of pre-examination vehicles for new vehicles listed will be expanded to more than 300 vehicles, and the cumulative test mileage will reach 10 million kilometers.

It should be pointed out that the "Announcement" will be publicized as of May 23rd. If there are no accidents, Hezhong New Energy Production Project will be approved by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. By then, Hezhong New Energy will become the 7th owner of the Development and Reform Commission following the future. The "double-qualified" production enterprises of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will also go through the most important checkpoints in their career.

According to Gasgo Motors, in accordance with the “Regulations on the Management of Newly Built Electric Passenger Cars” issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the National Development and Reform Commission in 2015, the newly-built automobile enterprises must obtain approval from the Development and Reform Commission for approval of the project in order to obtain the qualification for pure electric vehicles. After the approval of the National Development and Reform Commission, the approved enterprises are required to pass the assessment of the Regulations for the Production Management of Passenger Vehicles and Product Access and the Regulations for the Access Management of New Energy Vehicle Manufacturers and Products issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology to be included in the “Vehicle Production Enterprises and "Product announcement", to complete this step is to officially obtain a pure electric vehicle production qualification.

However, since the final production qualification of Jianghuai VW on May 22, 2017, the NDRC has suspended the approval process for new energy production projects, and there has been no sign of restart. The 15 new energy producers that have received approval from the National Development and Reform Commission are: BAIC New Energy, Changjiang Automobile, Future Automobile, Chery New Energy, Jiangsu Min'an, Wanxiang Group, Jiangling New Energy, Chongqing Jinkang, Guoneng New Energy, and Cloud. New Energy, Zhidou, Sudar, Hezhong, Luzhou Local Boats and Jianghuai VW. Among them, only Yundu New Energy, Beiqi New Energy, Jiangling New Energy, Zhidou of Lanzhou, Changjiang Automobile, and Future Automobiles received project approvals from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. If there is no accident, as of May 23, it will have vehicle production. The new energy of Hexin will become the seventh.

It is not difficult to find that six of the six production enterprises that have obtained “double qualifications” are either selling products or promoting the construction of production bases; others have not been approved by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. Progress is slow. According to sources, Jianghuai Volkswagen and Luzhou Local Boats plans to launch the first mass production model this year. Chongqing Jinkang’s first product will be launched in the market next year, while Min’an, Wanxiang, Suida, and National Energy are not yet clearly listed. schedule.

When the production qualification door is temporarily closed, and a crowd of new automobile enterprises is blocked from seeking outside the door, who will take advantage of the situation and become the next car company to obtain “double qualification” after Hezhong New Energy?
