Independent research and development is a positive commercial vehicle refused to hollow out technology
The lack of core components technology has always been the "pain" of the automotive industry. To achieve 2025 manufacturing in China, the auto industry must have its own core technology, otherwise it can only be led by others.
At present, the technology hollowing out of China's passenger vehicle industry is already very serious. Taking the 2013 data as an example, the market share of autonomous ABS is less than 4%, the electronic fuel injection system for passenger vehicles is 100% dependent on imports, and the import volume of passenger car automatic transmissions accounts for 99% of the total demand. Turbocharger 95% need to import.
　　
Compared with passenger cars, the development of commercial vehicles and their parts in China is a little relieved. First, commercial vehicle companies that have developed well in China are basically self-owned brands. The market share of importers' vehicles and joint venture commercial vehicles is not high; second, most parts and components of local commercial vehicle companies come from self-provisioned or Purchase other independent brands, such as most parts of Valin Auto from independent brands.
However, under the pressure of environmental protection and energy crisis in recent years, the country has accelerated the implementation of more stringent emission regulations. The upgrading of commercial vehicle technology is imminent. The original supporting model began to change, and foreign-funded parts and components began to “invade†the commercial vehicle sector.
First, due to the need for technological upgrading, commercial vehicle companies have accelerated the pace of joint ventures and cooperation with foreign brands. For example, commercial vehicle companies such as CNHTC, Dongfeng, Futian and Shaanxi Automobile have successively launched joint venture brands in the past two years. They want to use external forces to upgrade their products and enhance their market competitiveness. However, most of the joint-venture brands purchase parts and components. The party has the final say.
Secondly, in order to meet the National 4th and 5th National Emission Standards, commercial vehicle companies and key component companies such as engines need suppliers with higher technological content. However, in key components such as high-pressure common rails and post-discharge treatment systems, independent components The serious lack of enterprise core technology has made many commercial vehicle engine companies choose Bosch, Delphi and other foreign suppliers.
Again, product upgrades forced commercial vehicles to take the high-end line. High-end is not only reflected in key components such as the engine, but also needs other parts to match. As a result, more and more self-use commercial vehicle brands whose products gradually become high-end begin to support foreign-funded parts and components.
Not long ago, the author learned that the Federal-Mogul Corporation has received orders for the ignition system of most domestic engine companies such as Xichai, Yuchai, Weichai, and Heavy Duty Truck this year, among which the Yuchai’s new order was grabbed from Cummins. . At present, the parts and components of the ignition system are basically dominated by foreign-funded enterprises, and few independent brands can participate in the joint venture. It can be seen that competition in the key core component parts of China's commercial vehicles has been concentrated among foreign-funded parts and components companies. The self-owned brand parts and components companies have gradually become marginalized.
"Made in China" must not pursue the use of capitalism in key technologies. Independent parts and components companies should rise to the chase and raise the level of independent research and development. Do not let the tragedy of hollowing out technology in the passenger car industry be repeated in commercial vehicles.
