one, new products, price scanning
1. Lifan 520i 4.968-7.88 million officially listed price.
520 hatchback equipped with a production for the 1.3L, 1.6L and the original three imported Tritec engine, which sold 49,680 yuan 1.3LDX economy, LX comfortable selling 55,680 yuan, EX Luxury sales 59,680 yuan; equipped with 1.6L engine Lifan produces economic sold 56,980 yuan DX, LX comfortable selling 59,980 yuan , EX Luxury sell 63,980 yuan, VIP sold 68,980 yuan top configuration; imported Tritec1.6LDX sell 65,800 yuan economy, LX comfortable selling 69,800 yuan, EX Luxury sell 73,800 yuan, VIP configuration sales top 78,800 yuan ..
Analysis: Lifan hatchback prices consistent with the sedan, it is estimated this section if the owner for the overseas market, against the backdrop of the sedan, hatchback development of the domestic market more difficult. Lifan models the introduction of too many, the future can measure what the average sales of each model is. the best introduction of simple to complex models and then simplified the advantage of own brand sales of large single model to meet the needs of the largest group, or the loss of the self and the distribution business energy and resources, and ultimately affect the development of enterprises.
2. Corolla Special Edition GL-i sunroof 144,800 and 154,800 yuan for sale.

The benefits of these three products are all the main car models Landwind ..
Analysis: Landwind cars in recent years, this offer is the maximum price adjustment to make, a substantial jump in price of their products may grab some light passenger groups. SUV's always hot in the high-end, low-end can increase sales by marketing to be seen.
Second, the policy environment

The source said that overseas market, the intensity of the preferential 10% -13 %, of this policy and international standards ..
Analysis:. hybrid concept is very broad, and all enterprises have access to greater policy support. how low self-mixing brands, such as a breakthrough in the mix to obtain policy support is the key.
3. National Environmental Protection Ministry to step up to develop standards for vehicle air pollution limits.
Department of Environmental Protection Wu Xiaoqing, vice minister of the 30th, said to combat vehicle air pollution, protect human health, improve the car level of industrial technology, Department of Environmental Protection is now stepping up the development of automotive interior standard of air pollutants limit ..

4 28, the Guangzhou Municipal Government recently issued a Notice of auto-fuel standards Based on the current average reduction of 9.7%, greatly reducing air pollution. price per liter of State Ⅱ Ⅲ standard oil than standard oil of your country -0.16 0.13 yuan RMB. At present, only Beijing, Shenzhen and Guangzhou to promote the country overall Ⅲ standard oil.
Analysis:. crude oil prices and lower oil prices led to the promotion of oil country, three standards more difficult, oil prices and reasonable price is imperative. or refinery losses, fuel quality, technology enhance the power of small.
5. targeting new opportunities for environmental protection in China, Bosch intends to replenishment of expansion.
Bosch Group in the Chinese market by leaps and bounds thanks to China to strengthen environmental policies. With the introduction of European emission standards 三号, 2007 Bosch diesel motor has been profitable.

Analysis: China's environmental policy should correspond with the strength of domestic enterprises, and should take the opportunity to support local enterprises, instead of being foreign control. PhD is with the development of China adopted the policy of the European emission standard benefit, and China's standards are not innovative?
three car scan

analysis:. The seven production of new energy vehicles shall be granted, and can not represent the start of new energy vehicles in China, which listed seven vehicles in the context of the Beijing Olympics officially implemented this, because we must first of the directory, otherwise it can not get a license, not want to be the official Olympic Games, service vehicles.

Chery needs to improve digestion and absorption. so as to maintain the status flag of its own brand.

Analysis: Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi sales in the domestic and imported vehicles are mostly large displacement, high-profile luxury cars and SUVs, so the three of the competition is fierce, Mercedes-Benz smart decision at this time to introduce this car to the Chinese market is undoubtedly a wise move, first in the import of small cars is not much competition in the market model, to the current So far, only mini cooper, Beatles, Peugeot 206cc, it can be said after the listing of the impact smart and will not be great, on the other hand for the upcoming BMW 1 Series has played a significant restrictive effect, prevent and min mini cooper with exclusive import car market. but also smart for copying the best of small noble fight back, more importantly, smart official in the domestic market, the Mercedes-Benz and BMW for the narrowing, the gap in sales between Audi will also play a role.

2. new energy vehicles to seize the opportunities of foreign own-brand car prices slow production.
The idea that research and development of new energy vehicles in China and small gap between foreign enterprises, but this year's series of events run, multinational companies in promoting the production of new energy models and the pace of the market obviously go far bigger than their own brands. own brands in the new energy delay models for mass production, in addition to the development prospects of the market to determine the uncertainty, but also with the current business emphasis on the immediate return of the relevant ..

In addition to oil and natural gas industry, other major industrial growth rate of industry sales average about 27% higher than also lower than 17%. In recent years business growth is characterized by a significant profit growth faster than sales growth.
Analysis:. the increase in prices is not a major factor in the profit. administrative expenses accounted for the proportion of sales revenue gradually reduced, is an important factor in corporate profit growth. financial costs represent the proportion of sales are dropping. But the rapid growth of corporate profits to some extent also due to labor remuneration in the enterprise reduces the share of income distribution caused.
