China National Heavy Duty Truck Group and China National Heavy Duty Truck Hong Kong Co., Ltd. 2009 Business Conference was held in Jinan. During the meeting, a new generation of high-end heavy truck HOWO-A7 (referred to as Haoqi A7) was unveiled.
Haoqi A7 came out, at the time of the global financial crisis. Affected by this, China's auto market, especially the truck market, has fallen into a depressed state. Prior to this, Dongfeng Commercial Vehicles, FAW Jiefang and other domestic backbone heavy truck companies have successively completed the upgrading of their products. China National Heavy Duty Trucks has not moved. Although some people have commented that Sinotruk is stepping up efforts to build a replacement high-end heavy truck, the company has never disclosed any news of new product development through official channels. Analysis of the industry, China National Heavy Duty Truck's replacement product is likely to be a secret weapon with certain market lethality. The debut of the Haoqi A7 confirms this judgment. This freshly-baked high-end heavy truck has become a fire in the cold auto market, which has attracted the attention of the industry.

China has its own automatic weight card
This year marks the 30th anniversary of China’s reform and opening up. In the past 30 years, China's truck industry has made considerable progress. Through the introduction, digestion, and absorption, especially through the re-innovation of enterprise R&D personnel, the level of truck development has been unprecedented, and a number of high-end heavy trucks with strong competitiveness have come out one after another. And the move to overseas markets in batches, the gap between the heavy trucks with internationally renowned brands is gradually narrowing. In response, international heavy-duty truck manufacturers are in a complex mood. A representative of a multinational company in China for commercial vehicles said that the trend of world trucks is still that of European commercial vehicle manufacturers.
During a heavy-duty-test and test-drive drive organized by the multinational company, the sales representative told reporters that the automatic transmission has become the standard equipment for the company's factory heavy trucks. Drivers will not be distracted by shifts while driving, especially when driving on roads in cities, and they can focus on observing road vehicles and pedestrians and improve driving safety. However, China still does not have automatic weight-reduction cards. You have to go a long way to reach the level of European heavy trucks.
The reporter then thought that it would be good if China's heavy truck companies could produce automatic transmission heavy trucks. However, according to the representative of the multinational company’s business representatives, the technology of automatic heavy-duty trucks is high, the development investment is large, and the price is high. The average user cannot afford it and is not suitable for China’s national conditions. Is this true? Hao Qi A7 listing, so that the myth of the height of the automatic threshold can not be defeated.
In the trial test drive organized by CNHTC, the reporter boarded a black Haoqi A7 high-top tractor to test driving, feeling a reasonable layout of the cab, exquisite interior trim, and comfortable driving. Automatic transmission shift naturally smoothly during starting, acceleration, cornering and other movements, and there is no significant difference compared with the European high-end heavy-duty truck.
The price is 40,000 yuan higher than that of the previous generation.
Cai Dongxing, president of China National Heavy Duty Truck, participated in the test drive. He told reporters at the test drive site at the western suburbs of Jinan that all A7's AMT automatic transmissions are standard equipment. Moreover, compared with the previous generation Hao Hao heavy truck, Hao Hao A7's price is higher than 40,000 yuan. "If you want to measure, the price cannot be set too high." Cai Dong said that the 2009 Haohe heavy trucks that were exhibited outside the venue during the business conference will use the AMT automatic transmission as a standard equipment for all high-pressure common rail engines. The price is only 10,000 yuan higher than the manual transmission.
Cai Dong’s words greatly exceeded the expectations of the people present. According to Cai Dong’s price, as long as China’s users pay 10,000 yuan more, they will be able to drive the dream of an automatic transmission heavy truck. Even the recently launched high-end heavy truck Hao A7 is more than 40,000 yuan more than the previous generation. Zhang Hao from Qingdao Longxin Weiye Trading Co., Ltd. is a Sinotruk dealer. He test drive Haoqi A7 said that it is necessary to buy a prototype as soon as possible, to bring back to the user to introduce this new product.
At the subsequent business conference, China National Heavy Duty Truck Chairman Ma Chunji told the dealers here: "A7 series products will bring great economic benefits to everyone." Cai Dong reminded dealers that CNHTC launched the Haoqi A7. The timing of the 2009 Haohe heavy truck equipped with AMT automatic transmission is very good. At present, the market is just empty, there is no competitor, and the price is lower, and there are obvious advantages of price/performance ratio. Cai Dong said: "The other domestic manufacturers to launch similar products that can be mass-produced, it will take at least two and a half years. In these two and a half years, it is the golden opportunity for dealers to win market opportunities to make money. Don't miss the opportunity. â€
Ma Chunji said that it is expected that China Heavy Duty Truck will produce more than 112,000 heavy trucks in 2008, and its sales revenue will exceed 50 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 30%. In 2009, CNHTC strived to produce and sell 125,000 heavy trucks a year, of which 20,000 were to be guaranteed for vehicle export, and 25,000 were to be obtained. The market share increased by 3 to 5 percentage points. It is understood that in order to achieve this goal, China's heavy truck will be the main push in 2009 to assemble AMT automatic transmission models.
