The first model of Pentium pony born in the new factory has been mass produced and shipped to dealers all over the country. With the mass production of the first car, the new energy plant of FAW Yancheng Branch also officially unveiled for the first time, opening a new chapter for FAW to become bigger and stronger Pentium brand and accelerate the development of new energy industry layout.
Wang Guoqiang, the director and deputy secretary of the Party Committee of China FAW Group Co., Ltd., said in his speech that as an important part of the strategic layout of FAW's new energy industry chain, the production of the FAW Yancheng base has greatly supplemented the production capacity layout of FAW's independent new energy vehicles, marking a key step in the strategic layout of FAW's new energy. As the first new energy strategic model of the Pentium brand, the Pentium Pony will further enhance the competitiveness and influence of Pentium in the new energy market, and bring consumers a more situational and personalized car experience.
As the production base of new energy passenger vehicles set up by FAW, Yancheng Branch will undertake the production task of several new energy main models of the Pentium brand in the future, and become an important guarantee to support the development of FAW's independent brand and promote the transformation of FAW's Pentium new energy. With the accelerated transformation, FAW Pentium will successively launch 7 new energy models, covering pure electric, plug-in hybrid, extended range power and other types of products.
Pentium pony is the first product of FAW Pentium new energy transformation, which will be officially launched on 28 this month. Since the launch of pre-sale, with the five good experiences of "good-looking, fun, easy to drive, easy to save and safe", it has become a new "cute owner" of the micro pure electric travel market. In addition, the brand new new energy model of Pentium, code named E311, also made its debut in the event. This model is a pure electric SUV model created by FAW Pentium focusing on the travel scene needs of Chinese young family users, with a high price/appearance ratio and a high price/product ratio, which will bring a new travel experience of cutting-edge technology.
The operation of FAW Yancheng Branch will bring sufficient capacity support and quality assurance for the implementation of FAW Pentium new energy product planning. At the end of this year, FAW Yancheng Branch will successively invest in and transform 30 production lines to reach the level of annual output of 100000 vehicles. By the end of 2025, the production capacity will exceed 150000 vehicles and become an intelligent, green and efficient modern manufacturing enterprise. In terms of manufacturing quality, the body welding is 100% automated, high-precision and zero error, and the final assembly 100% data upload realizes the traceability of the whole vehicle quality. In terms of quality detection, the laser radar with a measurement accuracy smaller than that of the hair ensures that the gap between vehicles is even and beautiful. The 360 degree surrounding rain detection intensity has reached more than twice the national standard. More than 16 kinds of complex road condition tests have exceeded the industry standards. The whole process of 19 rigorous tests in 4 categories reflects the quality standards of FAW's major manufacturers.
From the formal mass production of Pentium pony, the surprise appearance of E311, and the high standard landing of Yancheng New Energy Factory, FAW Pentium has entered a new round of "race" of strategic transformation. Relying on FAW's more than 70 years of car building accumulation and the complete industrial supporting facilities in Yancheng, FAW Pentium will strengthen its advantages in the Yangtze River Delta market, which is the core of new energy vehicle consumption, showing a new pattern of coordinated layout of North South bases and common development of North South markets.
