On October 13th, representatives from three Italian automotive enterprises – including dealers, supply chain service providers and new energy project operators – arrived at Beijing Automotive Group to start a one-day in-depth inspection. From modern factories to strategic headquarters, China and Italy have engaged in practical exchanges on technology, market and cooperation, injecting new impetus into BAIC’s digital and global layout.
At 9 a.m., the first stop of the customer group was the BAIC New Energy Intelligent Factory. In the final assembly workshop, the fully automatic production line is operating efficiently, and the new EU5 PLUS pure electric sedan is rolling off the production line in an orderly manner. The welding accuracy of the vehicle body is controlled within 0.05 millimeters, and the battery pack has a protection level of IP68, which is fully compatible with the rainy and snowy road conditions in Europe. When the production manager of BAIC was giving an on-site explanation, the Italian dealer nodded frequently. He pays particular attention to customization capabilities: “Our customers prefer small-batch and multi-configuration orders. Can BAIC’s digital flexible production line support this?” The technical team immediately demonstrated the rapid order scheduling system. From the input of user requirements to the response of the production line, it only takes 15 minutes, eliminating the customer’s concerns.
In the afternoon, the delegation headed to the headquarters building of BAIC Group. In the brand culture exhibition hall, from the classic models of the fuel vehicle era to the new energy matrix such as “Magic Cube” and “Arcfox”, BAIC’s decades of technological accumulation and transformation achievements are gradually displayed. “We have noticed that BAIC has established 50 service outlets in Europe, which is crucial for after-sales support.” ” The supply chain service provider said when flipping through the cooperation manual. Subsequently, the two sides held a discussion in the strategic meeting room. The person in charge of BAIC International Business Department disclosed: “In the next three years, Europe will be our key market. We plan to launch right-hand drive models and comply with the new emission regulations of the European Union.” ” The Italian client expressed their intention to cooperate on the spot: they hope to become the exclusive agent of BAIC’s new energy commercial vehicles in the central region of Italy.
Before leaving the factory, the Italian dealer said, “From the quality control of the smart factory to the strategic vision of the headquarters, BAIC has demonstrated the global competitiveness of Chinese automakers.” We look forward to the cooperation being implemented as soon as possible, so that more Italian users can drive electric vehicles made in China! This visit not only deepened the mutual trust between the automotive industries of China and Italy, but also made BAIC’s “going global” blueprint increasingly clear in the willingness to cooperate on the Apennine Peninsula.
