As the jewel in the industrial crown, the automotive industry chain is extremely long, involves a wide range of industries, and integrates a large number of advanced technologies. Like a group of precise gears, they cooperate with each other to make the cars smoothly roll off the production line.
Today’s Shanghai is being hit by the new crown pneumonia epidemic.
On April 6, Lei Zhenglong, deputy director and first-level inspector of the National Health Commission’s Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention, introduced at the press conference of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council that the epidemic in Shanghai was at its peak, with more than 90,000 reported cases of infection. More community transmissions have spilled over to many provinces and cities, and the prevention and control situation is very severe.
According to the official website of the Shanghai Municipal Health and Health Commission, on April 4, Shanghai abandoned the previously formulated nucleic acid strategy of dividing and batching, and carried out nucleic acid screening in the city. On the 4th and 5th, Shanghai reported that there were more than 30,000 new local new crown infections. For example, on the 6th, Shanghai once again carried out a nucleic acid or antigen test across the city.
As an important center of China’s auto industry, the shock wave of the epidemic will not be limited to Shanghai, but will also spread to the Yangtze River Delta and even the whole country.
Enterprises in the automotive industry chain actively carry out production and self-help, implement online office, and use cloud technology to collaborate remotely to develop new products when express delivery is blocked. Try to eliminate negative effects.
The local government is also taking action. Jiading District, Shanghai has set up a special security class, and issued a guidebook and control plan to help key enterprises build a safe production environment and allow qualified employees to return to the factory. And apply for passes for related companies to ensure the safety of upstream and downstream supply chains.
Has Shanghai’s auto industry stalled?
How important is Shanghai in the Chinese automotive landscape?
In the whole year of 2021, Shanghai’s automobile production was 2.833 million, an increase of 7% compared with the same period of the previous year; the output value reached 758.6 billion yuan, an increase of 21.1% compared with the same period of the previous year. According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, the national automobile production in 2021 will be 26.528 million units, an increase of 4.8% compared with the same period of the previous year.
In terms of production, Shanghai accounts for 10% of the country’s total automobile production; in terms of sales, Shanghai is the largest city in terms of sales of new cars in the country. According to the data of compulsory new car traffic insurance, the cumulative sales of new cars in Shanghai will reach 736,700 in 2021, a year-on-year increase of 11.5%.
Large quantity and high quality are the foundation of Shanghai’s automobile industry.
In the whole year of 2021, Shanghai’s new energy vehicle output will be 632,000, an increase of 160% compared with the same period of the previous year, with an output value of 177.26 billion yuan, breaking the 100 billion mark. During the same period, Shanghai sold 254,000 new energy vehicles, an increase of 105% compared with the same period of the previous year. The cumulative number of new energy vehicles reached 677,000, and the total promotion scale ranked first among cities in the country.
In addition to its size, Shanghai also plays a pioneering role in technological breakthroughs in the automotive industry. New energy and intelligent networking are the new core values of automobiles. Shanghai has made a clear plan for this to accelerate the development of a highland for the development of the auto industry with global influence.
According to the “Shanghai Implementation Plan for Accelerating the Development of New Energy Vehicle Industry (2021-2025)”, by 2025, the output of new energy vehicles will exceed 1.2 million, and the output value will exceed 350 billion yuan. 50%.
In May 2021, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology listed Shanghai as the first batch of pilot cities for the coordinated development of smart city infrastructure and intelligent connected vehicles. Shanghai will deeply integrate smart cities, smart transportation, smart connected vehicles and smart energy, and demonstrate and promote its experience.
Today, due to the impact of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the Shanghai automobile industry is facing a major test.
For SAIC, which is headquartered in Shanghai, the impact is not small. Factories such as SAIC Passenger Car, SAIC-GM, SAIC-Volkswagen and other factories have reduced or even suspended production directly.
Before Shanghai did not implement global static management, SAIC Volkswagen had arranged for some workers to produce closed-loop production in the Anting plant. Later, with the severe epidemic situation in Shanghai and fluctuations in the supply of parts and components, SAIC Volkswagen’s Shanghai plant entered a shutdown.
The Shanghai plant itself is also an important support for many overseas auto groups. According to public data, SAIC Volkswagen will sell a total of 1.343 million new vehicles (excluding Skoda) in 2021, accounting for more than 15% of the Volkswagen Group’s global sales.
Affected by the epidemic prevention policy, Tesla has suspended production at its Shanghai Gigafactory since March 28. Analysts pointed out that based on the average daily production capacity of 2,000 vehicles, the production stoppage will affect the production of nearly 20,000 Tesla vehicles, further prolonging Tesla’s car pickup cycle, and then affecting the terminal price.
The Tesla Gigafactory, located in Shanghai Lingang Heavy Equipment Industrial Zone, has a scale of more than 860,000 square meters and a production capacity of 450,000 vehicles in 2021. It is China’s first wholly foreign-owned vehicle manufacturing project and Tesla’s first outside the United States. super factory. Half of the world’s Tesla vehicles will be produced here in 2021.
Has the Shanghai auto industry shut down during the lockdown? The answer is no. At present, various car companies in Shanghai are carrying out production and self-help according to local conditions, carrying out online office, and coordinating and communicating with each other; on the premise of ensuring safety, they maintain limited offline production.
How effective is the online office
A new project being carried out by SAIC Passenger Vehicle Quality Assurance Department requires the replacement of a certain part. Because the shape of this part is complex and difficult to process, it used to require suppliers to send samples for evaluation. Affected by the epidemic, samples could not be received in time.
In order not to affect the development progress of the project, SAIC Motor’s Quality Assurance Department thought of “video inspection”, using SAIC Motor’s iLink digital platform to evaluate samples and plate-making plans through remote high-definition video, and urge suppliers to continue to improve. Follow-up work plan during the epidemic period.
