Ali’s financial report: Ele.me from "steady growth" to "stable and fast", a number of key indicators are improving simultaneously

On the evening of August 10, Alibaba Holding Group announced the Quarter 1 results for fiscal year 2024. As Alibaba’s first financial report after launching the "1 + 6 + N" organizational change, Local Life Group performed well in it: in this quarter, driven by the strong growth of Ele.me and Autonavi, Local Life Group’s revenue grew by 30% year-on-year; at the same time, driven by the overall business scale and efficiency improvement, the segment loss continued to narrow, and the adjusted EBITA (operating profit and loss) reached the best level in recent years.

This quarter’s financial report also shows that due to the fact that Ele.me continued to record positive unit economic benefits, the order density continued to increase, and Ele.me’s losses continued to narrow year-on-year. Under the dual efforts of overall business scale and efficiency improvement, the loss of Local Life Group continued to narrow rapidly: Adjusted EBITA (operating profit and loss) continued to narrow to 1.982 billion yuan from a loss of 2.834 billion yuan in the same period last year.

The growth of high-quality supply, the improvement of consumer demand, and the continuous improvement of distribution capabilities have jointly driven the development of Ele.me from "stable growth" to "stable and fast": while the overall operating efficiency remains healthy in fiscal 2023, Ele.me is showing a strong and considerable growth trend at the beginning of fiscal 2024.

Firmly maintain the vision of "ecological progress" and continue to support high-quality merchants

The joint improvement of the supply quantity and quality of merchants is behind Ele.me’s firm investment in ecology. From April to June 2023, as the impact of the epidemic fully subsided, local travel and consumer demand accelerated. In order to better support the business recovery of merchants and work with merchants to serve consumers in more scenarios, Ele.me launched a series of support measures for merchants during the quarter.

In June, Ele.me held the 2023 Summer Merchant Conference and announced that it would increase investment in "six major areas" to continue to build a "benign, open and common development" merchant ecosystem, including: supporting good stores and good products, increasing investment in Sunshine series merchants, establishing local merchant academies, establishing open APIs, focusing on supporting sub-sectors to explore innovation, and re-launching summer consumer promotion activities. The merchant conference also sent a clear signal: Ele.me is committed to the long-term and firm strategic direction of an open and ecological platform.

At the 2023 Summer Merchant Conference, Eli.me COO Chen Weiye released business support measures for merchants

In order to fully support the launch of new takeaway stores by catering merchants and help new merchants in the industry to harvest business growth, Ele.me launched the "Young Seedlings Plan" in the quarter, launching special project measures for new takeaway merchants in terms of traffic, service and training. In addition to giving up to 28 days of free traffic support and preferential participation in key activities, Ele.me continues to implement all-day independent and easy settlement, and merchants can open stores on the same day of application. At the training end, Ele.me also launched 60-day customized new store growth training support for new store merchants to help new takeaway merchants master takeaway operation skills from scratch.

In order to meet consumers’ escalating demand for instant e-commerce, Ele.me has also continued to introduce various high-quality brand merchants to increase the supply of various retail products on the platform. In this quarter, Ele.me has successively reached cooperation with Apple and Suning.com: currently, more than 500 Apple authorized stores and more than 600 Suning.com stores across the country have been fully listed on Ele.me, covering major cities across the country. Through Ele.me, consumers can place orders for all kinds of Apple digital products anytime, anywhere, and buy more than 3,000 kinds of Suning.com store products such as mobile communication, digital computers, and household appliances. The fastest delivery in the city is 30 minutes.

Innovative user activity design continuously upgrades the consumer experience

The increase in the active level and order volume of Ele.me on the consumer side is driven by experience innovation. From April to June, during various consumer festivals such as the "May Day" holiday, Mother’s Day, and 520 Confession Day, Ele.me continuously met new consumer demand trends through platform innovation activity design. At the end of the quarter, Ele.me launched a new user activity such as "Guessing Answers Free Order" and "City Free Order" in this summer action, creating a new experience for the summer home delivery scene.

For example, during the "May Day" holiday, Ele.me worked with multiple platforms to jointly distribute cross-platform user benefits, including takeout, tickets, taxis and other different scenarios during various travel journeys. Through the "May Day Guardian Gold", consumers can more conveniently enjoy local consumption discounts during the holiday.

In mid-to-late June, with the launch of Ele.me’s summer action this year, last year’s popular online "free answer" activity returned again, and a variety of new ways to play were launched. Unlike last year, this year’s Ele.me free order activity does not need to guess the time, and the free order time will be told to users in advance. If you participate in the answer at the corresponding time, you will have the opportunity to grab the free order place.

This year’s "free order" upgrade of Ele.me not only reflects customer engagement. It is reported that as of the beginning of August, more than 1.50 million merchants participated in this year’s Ele.me "free order" activity, which is 2.5 times that of the same period last year. Among them, Starbucks, Wallace, Juewei Duck Neck, Xibei Noodle Village, McDonald’s, Gu Ming and other national chain brands are deeply involved in the activity and make joint marketing of "free order" IP.

With the rise in temperature and the arrival of the summer economy, Ele.me also collaborates with major platforms to carry out a series of activities such as "50% off Friday", "Crazy Weekend", "18 Red Packet Festival", "This Cup I Invite" to promote consumption and provide more preferential benefits for brand members and platform members. At the same time, for platform Black Diamond members, Ele.me also launched exclusive butler and other member services at the same time, and continuously upgraded the member service experience through high-quality service guarantee.

Continue to strengthen the construction of logistics capabilities to improve the care and protection of riders

Continued investment in on-the-go network capacity building and technological innovation has driven the overall order efficiency of the Ele.me platform to continue to improve, further consolidating the performance chassis for business growth. In order to better cope with the rapid growth of orders in spring and summer, Ele.me continued to strengthen investment in logistics network capacity building in the quarter, and on the basis of last year, further enhanced rider summer care and protection measures.

According to public reports, through technological innovation, Ele.me Blue Knight can send more orders in the same period of time. Compared with June last year, Ele.me riders’ combined order rate increased by 85.7% in one year. At the same time, Hummingbird has increased its investment in IoT equipment such as sideboards, smart helmets, and smart food boxes, continuously improving the convenience and safety of Blue Knight’s work.

After the launch of the Ele.me Summer Action in June, Ele.me provides riders with a variety of incentive measures and care measures including special project red envelopes, summer running order subsidies, and summer cool bags. In order to allow riders to deliver meals safely while reducing outdoor exposure, Ele.me also carried out front platform reminders according to local weather warnings this year to optimize routes and send order protection for riders.

  Ele.me accelerates the construction of rider stations across the country

Recently, Ele.me has launched four major measures: Blue Knights go to college for free, the construction of "Hundred Cities Million" Knight Inn, the upgrade of the Blue Knight Fund, and the heavy award of "Community Hero" to better support the work, life and development of riders. Among them, the "Hundred Cities Million" plan accelerates the construction of Knight Inn nationwide, allowing more Blue Knights to enjoy the inn service, and better solving problems such as "difficulty in eating, drinking, resting, and charging".

It is worth mentioning that in December last year, Ele.me released the industry’s first "Rider Growth and Development System". In the past year, 2,409 riders have been promoted to webmaster and higher positions. This development and growth development system is currently accelerating among riders across the country.

A postdoc at Peking University who has been delivering food for half a year for research has published his paper, and the food delivery experience has become an example

  Recently, the issue of "Peking University postdoctoral fellows delivering food for half a year for research" has become a hot topic on the Internet.

  Chen Long, a doctoral postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Sociology of Peking University, experienced the labor process of a takeaway rider for 5 and a half months in 2018 in order to complete the fieldwork of his doctoral dissertation. Chen Long wrote in the media about his experience as a rider for nearly half a year.

  According to Chen Long’s self-report to the media, in 2018, in order to complete his doctoral dissertation, he joined a team of food delivery riders in Zhongguancun, Beijing, and spent five and a half months conducting fieldwork, delivering food every day, and experiencing the rider’s labor process. He was curious about how hundreds of thousands of riders could walk through the streets of various cities across the country, seemingly chaotic but orderly. The results of his dissertation will be published this year, and all his investigations have always revolved around a central proposition in sociology: How does capital control workers, and how do workers resist?

  A reporter from Surging News found through China National Knowledge Network on May 9 that Chen Long’s paper "Labor Order under" Digital Control "- Research on Labor Control of Takeaway Riders" was recently published in the journal "Sociological Research" No. 6, 2020. Chen Long said in the abstract part: "Following the idea of Marx’s technical control, this paper studies the labor process of takeaway riders from the perspective of organizational technology and science and technology."

  Drawing on his own experience, Chen points out: "On the one hand, through the redistribution of control by platform companies, the platform system and consumers have replaced the platform company in managing the riders. The platform company appears to have given up direct control over the riders, but in fact it has diluted the responsibility of the employer; labor conflicts have also been correspondingly transferred to the platform system and consumers. On the other hand," digital control "has been upgraded from physical machines and computer equipment to virtual software and data. The platform system makes labor order possible by subtly collecting and analyzing rider data and reacting the data results to the riders."

  "Digital control not only weakens riders’ willingness to resist and erodes their autonomy, but also allows them to unknowingly participate in the process of managing themselves," says Mr. Chen. "Digital control also shows that capital control is not only shifting from autocracy to hegemony, but also from physical to virtual."

  The surging news reporter noticed that Chen Long used his own experience in delivering food as an example in his paper to analyze the problems existing in the delivery platform system.

  For example, in the section "Rider Autonomy under’Digital Control ‘" of Chen Long’s paper, he quoted a conversation he had seen in his food delivery team’s WeChat chat group:

  screenshot of the paper

  Chen Long explained: The "report" in the mouth of the rider refers to the fact that the rider can extend the delivery time by "reporting" when the delivery work is delayed due to the slow delivery of food in the restaurant. "Pending order" is a strategy that the rider "invented" during the delivery process over the years to run more orders. In principle, the rider should go to the restaurant to pick up the food immediately after receiving the order. However, before the rider feeds back "confirmed pickup" to the platform system, if the platform system receives a new order with the same destination, it will send the new order to the same rider. Whether there will be such an order depends entirely on luck, so the rider tries his luck by "hanging order", that is, dragging the way of not giving feedback "confirmed pickup" to the platform system. " The "pending order" is actually a strategy to delay the delivery time in exchange for more orders. However, when the rider wants to "place an order" and does not want to delay the delivery time because of the "pending order", making up for the time loss caused by the "pending order" becomes the primary issue before the rider.

  He points out in the paper that the corresponding way to extend the delivery time is to "report", but the "report" needs to meet three prerequisites: first, the rider is near the restaurant; second, the rider has been at the store for more than 5 minutes; third, the restaurant has not eaten at the estimated time. For experienced riders, it is easy to meet the "report" prerequisites. First of all, the straight line distance between the place where the rider is waiting for the order and most restaurants is within 500 meters (the requirement of "near the restaurant" is that the straight line distance is within 500 meters); secondly, because it is within 500 meters, the rider can click "Confirm to arrive at the store" in the same place, so that the requirement of arriving at the store for more than 5 minutes can be met while "placing an order" in the same place; finally, in the midst of the busy situation, even if the restaurant has already served, the rider can still insist that the restaurant has not served within the estimated time or cannot find an order. In the end, the rider can extend the delivery time of the previous order by "reporting" the previous order, which means that it is assumed that the restaurant’s delivery is slow rather than his own "pending order" caused the delivery delay.

  At the end of the paper, Chen Long argues: Although the platform system is used to manage the data of riders objectively, there is a profit orientation behind it. No matter how much technology leaps forward, it still essentially serves capital. And blind admiration for technological myths often makes us relax our vigilance against behind-the-scenes operations. Therefore, we should see that the platform system is not an objective and neutral "manager", and there is a figure of capital manipulation behind "digital control". If it has become an open secret that the content of social media and shopping websites will be pushed according to the preferences and habits of your audience, then there is also reason to believe that Internet platform companies are using the data they collect to maximize their profits.

  Chen Long wrote: As people’s daily lives are surrounded by various Internet platforms, whether consumers or workers, to avoid eventually becoming "digital refugees" under the Internet platform, they must see the potential dark side of data, be vigilant against capital manipulation behind technology, and resist data infringement by platform companies through reflection, criticism and action.

Epidemic prevention and control boosts the new model of e-commerce, community group buying strides into people’s lives

  Draw your mobile phone, order what you need in the WeChat Mini Program, and you can get the goods at the head of the community the next day – community group buying is a new type of consumption model that has emerged in recent years. During this year’s COVID-19 pandemic, community group buying suddenly became popular, providing residents at home with daily necessities, especially fresh fruits and vegetables that are necessary for three meals a day. It has played a huge role in ensuring the normal life of residents during the epidemic prevention and control period, and has also been recognized by more and more people. How will community group buying develop in the future has become a topic of concern for people.

  Fresh fruits and vegetables become the main commodities of the "group"

  "My family’s daily necessities such as vegetables and fruits are basically solved by community group buying, and the monthly consumption exceeds 1,000 yuan," Ms. Liu, from Kaifu District in Changsha City, told reporters on April 22. "This kind of community group buying consumption model provides convenience for our working people, the price is relatively affordable, and the quality feels good."

  The merchant recruits the head of the community as a unit, the head of the group creates a group buying WeChat group, and the head of the group promotes group buying goods in the group. Consumers place an order in the WeChat Mini Program, and the merchant delivers it to the head of the community according to the order volume the next day. Consumers go to the head of the group to pick up the goods, thus completing a community group buying.

  Group buying platform on the sale of a dazzling array of goods, the reporter in the prosperity of the preferred platform to see, there are 24 categories, ten Hui group also has 14 categories, from fresh fruits and vegetables, food, beauty care to home appliances digital group, and even cleaning services, laundry services can be group, among which vegetables, fruits, snacks, fresh most popular.

  In the vicinity of Heyuan Community, Kaifu District, Changsha City, there are three group buying points, Xingsheng Preferred, Zhihua Zhiguo, and Shihui Group. There are two group buying groups in the mobile phone of Ms. Zhang, a resident of the community, "I joined two community group buying groups. Each group buying has a different time every day, and the types and prices of sales are different. So when I want to buy something, I will compare the supply of the two platforms before placing an order. There is one platform with better fruit quality, and the other platform has cheaper daily necessities." Ms. Zhang is very knowledgeable about group buying. She said that she has joined community group buying for more than two years. Now most of the daily necessities are solved by group buying, and the number of visits to supermarkets and vegetable markets is much less than before.

  On the morning of April 24, the reporter saw a truck full of fresh food at the Shihuituan pick-up point in Lotus Pool, Kaifu District. The delivery driver told the reporter that he was responsible for delivering more than ten points around the area, each time there were thousands of orders.

  The number of Zhihua Zhiguo group buying group in Heyuan Community has reached 492 people, and sometimes the head of the group also sells some local eggs, local chickens, Dongjiang fish and other local specialties. The head of the group buying is mainly middle-aged people, office workers.

  It is common for several group buying platforms to coexist in a community. Residents of Jinxiu Huatian, Kaifu District, Changsha City told reporters that before the Spring Festival, there was only one prosperous and preferred community. After the epidemic appeared, there are now 4 group buying platforms in the community. Every day, the 4 heads of delegation do their best to promote platform products in the group, which is very lively.

  In Changsha City, Chengbei Shuiying California Community, the head of the "A Preferred Little Talent" concurrently operates three platforms: Xingsheng Preferred, Koala Selection Mall, and Shihui Group, as well as Deyuan Baozi delivery. Every day at about 8:30 am, she will send the main product links of each platform in the WeChat group to notify the arrival and other information. During the epidemic prevention and control period, she also personally delivered the goods to her door. Ms. Zhou from the community told reporters that because it is far from the urban area and there are relatively few supermarkets, she is more willing to participate in community group buying. The content of the three group buying platforms is similar, all of which are fruits, vegetables, daily necessities, etc., and the prices are slightly different. The price of group buying vegetables and fruits is cheaper than the surrounding fruit shops and supermarkets, such as honeydew melon in Hainan, fruit shops sell for 6 yuan/catty, while the platform only 4 yuan/catty.

  Community group buying plays an important role during the epidemic

  "On the fifth day of the first lunar month, there were no vegetables at home. I went to the vegetable market and found that it was not open at all. I went to the nearby supermarket. The vegetable area that had always been dazzling in the past had no leaves. Just when I was at a loss, the owner of the commissary in the community pulled me into the Zhihua Zhiguo shopping platform. The next day, the dishes I bought arrived and felt fresh. Since then, as an office worker, I have been buying fresh fruits and vegetables on the platform every day, which feels very convenient." Recently, Ms. Liu from Yuhua District, Changsha City, told reporters how she became a loyal consumer of community group buying.

  The sudden COVID-19 epidemic has disrupted the normal life of the citizens, the semi-closed management of the community, and the vegetable market has also delayed the opening of the door. With the extension of the closure time, many residents have no food, and some e-commerce platforms are still delivering goods without interruption. Some community heads also responded positively to the opening of the group, alleviating the residents’ shopping problems.

  During the most serious period of the epidemic, the reporter found that community group buying was very popular. For example, on the Xingsheng Preferred platform, each single product is tens of thousands of pieces of vegetables, soy products and meat, which are often sold out within 15 minutes of opening the group at 0:00. Some other commodities that are in short supply during the epidemic, such as alcohol, disinfectant, yeast powder, etc., have been out of stock elsewhere, but they are still available on the platform from time to time. As popular products, they need to be snapped up quickly.

  Ms. Zhou of Heyuan Community said that recently, she has been guarding the two platforms of the community to open a group and stock up on some vegetables every day. It is because of community group buying that her family’s life has not been greatly affected during the epidemic.

  The frenzy of group buying has ruined the heads of the community. A head of the group surnamed Liu in Lotus Pool, Kaifu District, Changsha City, said that since the opening of the group on the sixth day of the new year, the number of group buying has soared, reaching more than four times the previous number. "During the epidemic, I am so busy that I often can’t eat lunch and dinner." A head of the group surnamed Zhang in Furong District also told reporters that as soon as the delivery truck arrived at 2 pm, in order to prevent the crowding of people taking goods, his family of four went into battle and put the goods in sub-units first.

  The person in charge of several large-scale group buying platforms in Changsha told reporters that during the COVID-19 epidemic, the sales volume of the platform ushered in explosive growth. For example, in Xingsheng Preferred, Changsha’s super 1 million active users placed orders on the platform, the average order volume increased by about 300%, and the number of new users increased by more than 4 times year-on-year. Fresh goods such as vegetables and fruits were basically sold out before noon.

  All platforms have tried to ensure delivery during the epidemic. The person in charge of Zhihua Zhiguo told reporters that during the epidemic, the platform also applied for resumption of work early. The first delivery began on February 6, and the growth of vegetables and meat was obvious. In order to ensure that a community with suspected cases can deliver goods, several shareholders also take turns to drive home deliveries. Xingsheng Preferred also took measures such as providing additional subsidies for distribution personnel and setting up incentives to encourage distribution personnel and heads of delegation.

  Healthy development requires facing existing problems

  The epidemic has made community group buying widely accepted by people, which is greatly conducive to the future development of this e-commerce model. However, the threshold for community group buying is not high, and many problems such as commodity quality and after-sales services are also exposed during the epidemic. Pay attention to and solve these problems, so that community group buying can better develop and better serve the masses.

  Group buying has a price advantage, but because you can’t see the real thing, sometimes you will buy troubles: the duck intestines you bought are covered with red spots, the tofu is sour, the vegetables are broken, the melons and fruits are cracked, and the fruit taste is very poor – consumers have a lot of complaints. The biggest difference with other online shopping products is that the fresh fruits and vegetables have a short shelf life, and the goods are particularly easy to break, which brings certain difficulties to after-sales. The sales process includes producers, group buying platforms, community heads, consumers and other links. The responsibilities of each link are not clear. Once there is a problem, mutual accusations and wrangling often occur. Some consumers because the price of goods is not high, defective products thrown away, did not go to complain, but if this happens often, it will definitely affect the group buying feeling.

  Delivery of goods is also often untimely, which occurs from time to time on various platforms. Sometimes a goods cannot be delivered for several days in a row, and fresh ingredients are not delivered in time, which brings extraordinary trouble and greatly reduces the satisfaction of the shopping experience.

  Platform in the selection of the community head, there is no threshold, some heads do not even have their own brick and mortar stores, the goods come, just like a stall in the community. A resident of Changsha Yuelu District complained that the community will be a long pile of vegetables, fruits and even meat on the ground, spring and winter season is OK, summer to do? Who is responsible for deterioration?

  How to protect rights if there is a problem with the goods bought by the group, lawyer Li Chunguang of Hunan Haitian Law Firm told reporters, "If the head of the group buys for free, as long as there is no major fault, it generally does not need to bear legal responsibility; if the purchasing fee is charged, if the purchasing behavior causes the buyer’s loss, it will be legally responsible. Citizens who encounter Sanwu products or quality problems must keep relevant evidence. If the after-sales service of the group buying products is not smooth and there is a dispute, they can use the WeChat chat records and payment records of the head of the group to complain to the Market Supervision and Administration Bureau, or they can request the Consumer Association to mediate or sue to the court."

Office workers like it, and its appearance is fashionable and its performance is good. BYD Qin PLUS EV has 129,700 cases nationwide.

Many consumers think that the cost of buying a car plus the cost of maintaining a car every year is really a lot of money, but now taxi software is so popular that it is convenient and cheap to take a car, so it is not practical to buy a car. However, in bad weather such as cold or hot, carrying a heavy shopping bag or dragging a huge suitcase, or when the driver is in an emergency, he will feel the pain of waiting. Although cars are consumables, and even the rate of preservation is not high, there is no denying that owning a car of your own can really bring great convenience to life, such as going to go on road trip.

Today, we will take a look at the new car BYD Qin PLUS EV, including its design, rough interior, high and low performance, etc. Presumably, small owners have dived into major forums and dug numerous evaluation videos, so there is no need to go into details in small series. Now, our focus is on the transaction price, discount, sales volume, value preservation and other aspects of Qin PLUS EV, helping small owners who are basically targeting and waiting for the right time to start to judge whether BYD Qin PLUS EV is worth winning more comprehensively.

The biggest discount of BYD Qin PLUS EV’s transaction price in the past month reached 8.79 fold, the cash of new cars dropped by 17,900 yuan, and the national sales of new cars started at 129,700 yuan. The point price is for reference only, and the actual transaction price is subject to the local dealer.

The picture below shows the sales data of BYD Qin PLUS EV. The national sales volume in the last month was 410 vehicles. I wonder if BYD is still satisfied with this result. Most people will follow the sales volume when buying a car, which is the main basis for most people to judge whether a car is good or not without in-depth understanding of a car. Although it is not accurate, it is not groundless, but if you have higher requirements for car selection, you need to make more efforts to fully understand it.

When we buy a car, we will pay attention to all aspects of this model in advance, especially the posts and word-of-mouth posted by car owners in major forums and vertical websites. Apart from the navy, there are still some car owners’ real car experience that is worth learning. Let’s take a look at the word-of-mouth score of BYD Qin PLUS EV. The comprehensive score of BYD Qin PLUS EV is 4.72, and the result is not bad, so BYD Qin PLUS EV can be considered.

After watching it for a while, it turns out that BYD Qin PLUS EV is not your dish? Let’s take a look at its powerful competitors. At present, there are basically good discounts on this site. Among them, the discounts for Beijing EU5 and Emgrand EV are 8.7 and 8.6 respectively, which is quite suitable. Take a quick look and choose!

If the price of Qin PLUS EV is right in the near future, then friends will hurry up! Linkage promotion in many places across the country, and there are even more discount models as low as 30%.

Frequent failures, sales halved! The safest Volvo in the world, why can’t it be sold?

The inventor of three-point seat belts, the first automobile brand to use airbags, Volvo is undoubtedly the industry benchmark in terms of safety, but Volvo, the safety benchmark, has recently encountered trouble.

In May 2022, Volvo’s sales in China were only 9,488 vehicles, down 43.8% year-on-year, which was the second consecutive month, down more than 40% year-on-year. In April, Volvo sold 8,579 vehicles, down 47.8% year-on-year, and the sales volume was almost halved, which obviously exceeded the industry average. What’s worse, the combined sales volume of all Volvo models was not as good as that of LI, a new force in car making.

And this is the market answer sheet handed over by Volvo models when they all give substantial terminal discounts. Take Volvo S90 (parameter picture) as an example. The terminal discount of this car is as high as 70,000-80,000 yuan, and the terminal landing price is even in the early 300,000 s. It can be said that the car is being sold with a fracture. But how can Volvo, which has a broken bone, still not be sold?

The product update is slow, and the main models are exhausted.

In the fierce market competition environment, major car companies have been trying to introduce new products, update technology and keep up with the market development trend in recent years, but Volvo, a Swedish car company, is obviously a little slow in pace. Volvo’s three main models have not been replaced for a long time.

XC90 was released in 2014, S90 in 2016 and XC60 in 2017. Although there is a change in the middle, it is basically fine-tuned in appearance and power system, which is neither painful nor itchy, and it is difficult to form a new communication point, and it is also lack of freshness for consumers.

Safety and environmental protection cards can no longer be played.

Volvo’s models have always been known for their safety. Besides, the environmentally friendly interior materials is also its unique selling point. In addition, Volvo has no other differentiation advantages that can distinguish it from its competitors. Volvo’s models are obviously not as good as their competitors at the same level in terms of creating luxurious interior texture and driving texture. However, even for safety and environmental protection, these two cards are becoming more and more immovable.

In terms of safety, as long as the price of luxury brand models is more than 300,000, it may not be so extreme in safety, but it will not be particularly embarrassing. Moreover, with the wave of automobile electrification, more and more models are equipped with active safety systems, which also leads to Volvo’s safety brand, which is less and less attractive to consumers.

In terms of the environmental protection of the interior, many new brands have also begun to promote the interior of their own models and how much environmental protection materials have been used. Therefore, these two advantages that Volvo originally monopolized are gradually being disintegrated by competitors.

The complaint rate is high, with frequent failures.

Since the beginning of this year, some owners of Volvo S60 and S90 have found that the engine can’t start normally for many times, and even some vehicles have completely lost power and can’t be unlocked. Volvo dealers explain this problem as "software matching failure", claiming that it can be repaired by software upgrade, but the vehicle after maintenance and upgrade still has the problem of not starting. According to professional analysis, it may be because the 48V light mixing system of Volvo’s new model may have defects in its working logic, which may lead to power loss of the vehicle.

According to the information of many complaint websites such as Chezhi. com, the complaint sales ratio of Volvo’s models is not low. In the first quarter of this year, the complaint sales ratio of Volvo XC60 new energy was the highest. The main complaints were: suspected distribution reduction, car body accessories and electrical audio-visual system failure, driving safety auxiliary system failure, and engine/motor drive motor failure.

In the face of the long-standing problem of low-frequency resonance/abnormal sound, some car owners revealed that at that time, the dealer gave the "hush money" practice of signing a confidentiality agreement after compensation, but did not recall it.

Dislocation competition, hedging rate and brand premium are worrying.

Dislocation competition and substantial terminal concessions are the secrets of sales growth of Volvo models in previous years, but this practice has also brought great negative effects.

The method of high pricing and substantial terminal discount has seriously hurt Volvo’s brand image, which has led to the general public’s view that Volvo should not buy without breaking a bone, which has also led Volvo to continue the method of high pricing and high terminal discount when launching new models, which has also exhausted Volvo’s brand premium.

In addition, the way of substantial terminal concessions has led to a sharp decline in the value-keeping rate of Volvo models. Take several representative models as examples, the three-year value-keeping rate of Volvo XC60 is 44.67%, that of Volvo XC90 is 54.25%, that of Volvo S90 is 44.54%, and that of Volvo S60 is 45.74%. Even if you count the terminal concessions, the value-keeping rate of Volvo is calculated according to the actual landing price.

As it turns out, Volvo’s several brands, such as substantial discount, misplaced competition, safety and environmental protection, are becoming more and more immovable, and Volvo must make changes. We can also see that Volvo is also actively carrying out electrification transformation recently, hoping that Volvo can make a faster pace in electrification transformation.

For Mercedes-Benz E300 before model year 2015, the use of handbrake is very simple. Just press the handbrake pedal to finish parking. If you need to release the handbrake, just pull the handbrake handle under the light switch on the left side of the instrument panel.

However, for the new Mercedes-Benz E300, the hand brake is used in a slightly different way. There are two ways to open the handbrake: one is controlled by the handbrake switch under the light switch on the left side of the instrument panel. As long as you press the switch, you can start the parking brake. When you need to release the parking state, just press the handbrake switch. Another way is that the vehicle will automatically control the handbrake. When the vehicle comes to a stop and steps on the brake pedal to shift into P gear, the vehicle will automatically start the parking brake. When it is necessary to release the handbrake, just shift into D or R and press the accelerator pedal.

It is worth noting that the hand brake is a very important safety device to prevent the vehicle from sliding or rolling when parking. Therefore, it is very necessary to use the handbrake correctly. When using the handbrake, you should first stop the vehicle completely, then pull up the handbrake pedal or handbrake switch, and finally put it into P gear. When releasing the handbrake, you should first shift into D or R gear, and then press the accelerator pedal, and the handbrake will be released automatically.

In short, the use of the handbrake of Mercedes-Benz E300 is very simple, no matter whether it is old or new, just follow the above steps. The use of the hand brake can not only ensure the safety of the vehicle, but also prolong the service life of the brake system, so the hand brake must be used correctly when parking.
