Brilliance intends to cooperate with Mercedes-Benz in the commercial vehicle sector


The reporter learned yesterday that after 6 years of joint venture with BMW, Brilliance Automotive is seeking new joint venture partners and has already targeted the Mercedes-Benz. Bing Yumin, chairman of Brilliance Automotive Group, said in an interview that the two sides mainly cooperated in the field of commercial vehicles.

According to Yan Yumin, the new joint venture between Brilliance and Mercedes-Benz is mainly in the modified car. “China needs a special car. Now this market is very good.” Yan Yumin pointed out that in the future, Huachen will develop in the blank areas of special vehicles and modified cars through preemptive methods. This part of the sales volume is not large, tomorrow is expected to be about 10,000, but the market efficiency will be very good.

Wang Hui, a senior public relations manager at Daimler Group, said in an interview with reporters that there is currently no way to confirm whether the parties are cooperating. According to China’s automobile industry development policy, a foreign-funded company cannot exceed two joint ventures in China.

At present, besides the joint venture with BAIC in the field of passenger vehicles, Mercedes-Benz's parent company, Daimler, has a joint venture with Fujian Automobile Group in the commercial vehicle sector to produce the Chrysler brand. Therefore, people in the industry think that Mercedes-Benz's cooperation may have "exceeding quotas."

However, the chairman of Huachen Yan Yumin stressed that since the cooperation with Mercedes-Benz is in the modified car, it is not limited by the joint venture quota. At the same time, it does not affect cooperation with BMW. It is reported that at present, the second phase of BMW Brilliance has been successfully approved with a production capacity of 75,000 vehicles.

The reporter learned that Brilliance plans to build four new production bases nationwide in order to develop special vehicles such as modified cars. “They are Tieling (Liaoning) one, Shanghai one, then the South one, and the North one.” Yan Yumin said, now Shanghai is already doing, but the scale is too small to expand production; Tieling is talking about, The two are kept confidential.

According to another report, after the new base was laid out, Brilliance Automotive will change its steady development trend over the past few years, and its sales target for next year will jump from 280,000 last year to more than 450,000.

Yan Yumin said that in order to achieve this sales, Huachen will have a number of new vehicles listed next year.
