Geely aims to achieve 90% of NEV sales in 2020

Recently, Geely Automobile announced its new energy vehicle development strategy, aiming to achieve more than
90% of sales of new energy vehicles in 2020.
Geely calls the strategy "Blue Geely Action", and it plans
the development of pure electric, gasoline-electric hybrid and plug-in hybrid models.

An Conghui, President and CEO of Geely Automobile Group, announced five core contents of the "Blue Geely Action": first, fully realize the average fuel consumption limit of 5.
0L/100km for enterprises in the fourth phase of the country in 2020 ahead of schedule; The second is to realize consumers' dream of buying plug-in hybrid vehicles at the cost of traditional cars; Third, by 2020, new energy vehicle sales will account for more than 90% of Geely's overall sales, of which plug-in hybrid and gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles will account for 65%, and pure electric vehicles will account for 35%; Fourth, substantial results have been achieved in the research and development of hydrogen fuel and metal fuel cell vehicles; The fifth is to realize the leading position of new energy technology, intelligent and lightweight technology in the industry
.

According to Geely's previous sales target of 1.
2 million units in 2019, the 90% proportion means that Geely's new energy vehicle sales will exceed one million units
by 2019.
This target is much higher than the target sales announced by other car companies, with BAIC and Chery aiming for 200,000 new energy vehicles in 2020, and Shanghai GM's sales target of only 300,000 units
in 2020.
However, this number seems to be a castle in the air, but it is actually prepared
.
Geely Automobile has already made many attempts
in the field of new energy.
In addition to independently developing pure electric products such as electric King Kong, electric panda, and electric GX2, it has also cooperated
with Kandi Electric Vehicle, New Dayang Zhidou and other enterprises in the field of pure electric vehicles.
In addition, Geely plans to establish a joint R&D and manufacturing company for electric drive systems with Volvo Cars
.

In the future, Geely Automobile will implement its new energy strategy
mainly through three technical routes: pure electric (EV), gasoline-electric hybrid (HEV), and plug-in hybrid (PHEV).
According to Mr.
Feng Qingfeng, President of Geely Automobile Research Institute, pure electric vehicles will rely on FE platforms and PE platforms
.
The FE platform focuses on high-performance, mid-to-high-end electric vehicles
.
In 2018, the power consumption of 100 kilometers will be controlled at 13kWh, with a maximum range of 400 kilometers, and in 2020, the power consumption of 100 kilometers will be controlled at 11kWh, with a maximum range of 500 kilometers, and the first model of the FE platform is the Emgrand EV listed this time; The PE platform focuses on lightweight, intelligent and cost-effective small pure electric vehicles
.
In 2019, the power consumption per 100 kilometers will be controlled at 9kWh, with a maximum range of 300 kilometers, and in 2020, the power consumption will be controlled at 8kWh per 100 kilometers, with a maximum range of 400 kilometers.
