Changan Automobile is understood that in March this year officially launched Yat move pure electric vehicles, but only four months after they become produced by Changan PSA. From the base of original production in Chongqing moved to the base of Shenzhen, it would be reasonable from the point of view of cost, not worth it, but no cars in the industry believe that the reason why Yi electric drive production base car moved to Changan PSA, first, Yi electric motion This brand cars French need PSA increase influence and brand power, secondly, to alleviate energy is also an important reason for the high pressure produced in the factory Chongqing and Shenzhen markets and new policies more mature third energy.

Jia Xinguang said that in recent years with the continuous promotion of DS brand, so that their customers did not previously know that the brand is more understanding in cooperation with the electricity supplier will be allowed to open up a broader market.
It is understood that the main DS is a complete line DS5LS models for sales of electronic trading platform. For other cars, according to Xu Jun introduced, DS will have the same approach "outsourcing" of sales, this is the DS mode "pull Wholesale Retail". It is because, DS coefficient terminal dealer inventory was controlled between 1 to 1.5.
For the future of the canal network, Xu Jun planning objective is to achieve 95 ", the number of distributors is 87 now, speed is also faster than we can imagine that this 87 auto dealers in two belong to the spontaneous expansion. " Xu Jun said the Ampang DS4S Chengdu store, for example, the ability of brand management Ampang DS is the relatively large investment, because a profit, they are willing to continue to invest in a second store enter 4S It opened, and additional DS an investor, wiped his own 39 4S stores, and ultimately retain the two brands, one is imported Lexus, a brand is DS.
No building channels, DS This area is the first consideration should be integrated into the development plan of the company, the second, the region does not have enough traffic market, thirdly, that the distributor can not let investors They make money. In the current two 4S stores in Chengdu and founder Ampang point of view, they have a good profit.
