Geely's goal of one million new energy vehicles tops the geometric brand's weight breakthrough

Two years since its launch , It's a bumpy road on the road of electric vehicles The geometric automobile , Decided to look for a new way out .

8 month 17 Japan , Geometry car launches a new car ——2021 paragraph The geometric C（ Parameters 丨 picture ）, The new car is divided into 400 Km and 550 Km two endurance versions , Price after subsidy 12.98 ten thousand -18.28 ten thousand element . As an annual car , The new The geometric C Some upgrades have been made to the configuration , But the changes in appearance and interior decoration are not big . Geometry car hopes to change the car , Regain market recognition .

Up to now , A total of two cars under geometric brand are on sale , One is 4 Shanghai auto show in January The geometric A Pro, The car is geometric A Modified car . The other is geometry C. Behind rapid product updates , It is related to the current market environment of geometric cars .

The geometric brand is geely Car on 2019 A new brand positioning medium and high-end pure electric launched in . The geometry of the first car A Have been placed high hopes , However, the market performance of the car did not meet expectations . data display ,2019 Year round Geometry A The cumulative sales volume of is 1.2 Thousands of cars , Less than expected 3.5 10000 sales .2020 The cumulative annual sales volume of geometric vehicles in was 5051 car , Down again .

The second car of geometry car C stay 2020 year 8 On the listed , This is a pure electric SUV, The main “ life ” And “ Technology ”. However, geometry C Also failed to win the market , Its first month sales were only 784 car ,2020 The sales volume for the whole year is 5277 car .
