When it comes to Chevrolet, many people think of the bumblebee in Transformers. Indeed, many young people in China understand Chevrolet according to this form, but few people know the brand history of Chevrolet. Today, we use a special way to grasp the brand history time of Chevrolet according to Camaro, and how many friends care about the quality of Chevrolet? Why doesn't Chevrolet appreciate?
Bumblebee is a kind name for the protagonist in Chevrolet Camaro's Transformers movie. In the movie, Bumblebee is not the strongest or the most powerful autobot, but it just happens that its loyalty and heroic temperament have been added with millions of powders. The actual Camaro bumblebee has a history of more than 50 years, and now it has reached the sixth generation. In fact, it is not only in Transformers, but also in many movies.
The appearance of the first generation Camaro is universal in order to better match the Mustang sports car. At that time, the Ford Mustang had an impact, which well showed the random personalization of the American muscle car. At that time, foreigners were in a happy situation after the war Sports car was a fashionable fitness sport at that time, but as we all know, it was just a linear acceleration race without F 1.
When speeding up, the roar of the sports car module came, which was enough to make them excited, which was also a great achievement once the Mustang sports car was released.
As for the widely released "Camaro" muscle sports car, the expression of this name in high-rise residential buildings is: a small but fierce animal, the key is to feed on small animals such as Ford Mustang. That role has been confirmed, and it is used to compete with Ford Mustang.
Only three years after the release of the first generation Camaro, the sales volume reached an unexpected 699,000 units. At that time, Camaro gradually became one of the GM and even meant models in the history of British automobile industry.
In the movie "Charlie's Angel", three super sexy beauty officials happen to be driving a generation of Camaro SS version when performing their tasks.
In the first part of Transformers, Bumblebee appeared as a generation of wide-body Comalo SS, and the combination of gray-black and orange-yellow made Comalo thicker.
For transformers fans, the role of the second generation Camaro is particularly critical. Because the appearance of bumblebee in switching power supply transformer happens to be the second generation of Camaro.
Although the second-generation Camaro in the movie lacks a sense of muscle, is a little antique and even a little rusty, it is enough to surprise many people when the heroine opens the hood of the car engine. Beneath the old-fashioned surface, she actually has this cool and charming car engine.
The second generation Camaro was put on sale at 1970, and was continuously mass-produced at 12 years, making it the most competitive model in Britain in the 1970s.
In the movie "Speed and Passion-Tokyo Drift", Dominica also happens to be the second generation of Camaro.
The third generation of Comalo appeared in 1982. If you want to feel more muscular, then this generation of Camaro will make many people feel chilling. Because the third generation Camaro lacks many simple and rough wireframes, the front of the car will move down and the design style will be biased towards Europe.
If you have played the mobile phone game "Grand Theft Auto-Sin City", you can find that three generations of Camaro have also happened, and Camaro in the game is like that.
1993 The fourth generation Camaro appeared, and the design style did not return to the whole body muscles. Based on the third generation model, it has carried out more European fashion trends.
However, from the present perspective, when Japanese cars and European cars were popular in North America, the appearance of the fourth generation Camaro was very in line with the fashion trend at that time.
In 2006, GM announced the re-production of Camaro, and presented a brand-new upgraded Camaro concept sports car at the North American International Auto Show. The appearance of this generation of Camaro has changed a lot, and the strong body wireframe and spacious front bumper grille indicate that Camaro will eventually return to the American muscle car.
The following year, the movie Transformers was released. When Autobots and Decepticons presented a wonderful and exciting battle for everyone, Bumblebee also evolved from the second generation Comalo to the fifth generation Comalo in the first half of the film.
With good film publicity and planning, Chevrolet enterprises also released the Transformers Camaro and the convertible Camaro by taking advantage of the good-looking film use value. After one year's sales, the sales volume reached 865,438+0,299 vehicles, ending the 23-year record of Ford Mustang in the modern American muscle sports car industry.
In 20 16, Camaro was 50 years old, and Chevrolet announced the sixth generation Camaro abroad. The exterior design inherited the design scheme of five generations, and the front air intake grille became narrower, giving people an evil feeling.
Chevrolet time is actually like Camaro's historical time. At first, it broke out, there was a silence for a while, and then it revived. At present, Chevrolet's joint venture automobile enterprise in China is SAIC, and the key models are Explorer, Cruze, Maiyuebao and copaci. Here is a detailed introduction of the most popular model of 20 17 Chevrolet China.
Compact rider with accurate positioning, with two displacement options of 1.0T and 1.5L, matching with 5-speed manual gearbox, 6-speed manual gearbox or 6-speed dual clutch gearbox. The market price is 79,900-1 1.49 million. 20 17 annual sales 17 1833.
The sales volume of Chevrolet SUV 2065 438+07 is not very good, which is related to the product series. Chevrolet lacks a full range of SUV products. In 2065438+2007, among the top six Chevrolet sales, only explorers were selected. 1.5T and 2.0T exhaust capacity were matched with 6-speed automatic manual transmission or 9-speed automatic manual transmission, and the market price was 174900-250900.
In terms of quality, Chevrolet's performance is not bad. Although it ranks first 1 in the complaint rate of brand cars surveyed by China Consumers Association, there are obviously few quality reports, and the reports focus on issues such as contracts and after-sales maintenance services. This situation is also common in other Sino-foreign joint ventures.
Why doesn't Chevrolet appreciate? This is mainly related to brand influence. Chevrolet entered China late, and its popularity in China is average. In addition, the product design is relatively general, and the interior of the car is also the main performance that is difficult to satisfy. Moreover, the rapid price reduction of new cars has caused a low rate of car preservation.
Which is more durable, Chevrolet or Ford?
When it comes to American family cars, Chevrolet and Ford are definitely good choices. Why is there no Buick? I think the design style of Buick is biased towards business reception. Although the current car system looks young and fashionable, the brand image of the early Buick commercial vehicle has done too much harm to everyone. So back to Chevrolet and Ford, these two American brands are more in line with family brands, which is durable and which is good?
Generally speaking, a car is durable, so the equipment failure rate of this car is undoubtedly low, otherwise it is not durable. But if you want to sum up, which is more durable, Chevrolet or Ford? This is really hard to say, so I only have some data information as a reference.
First of all, the research report on American market in 20 18 released by J.D.Power, a British professional research organization, completed the consulting survey of 36,896 car buyers in 20 15 years, focused on the application of cars in recent three years, and made a systematic statistical analysis of the total number of common failures caused by every 100 car. The brand reliability in the ranking is determined by the total number of problems per 100 vehicle (PP 100). Simply put, the less the situation of the car, the more reliable the car, and the more problems the car has.
The quality and reliability of Chevrolet surprised everyone, with 124 questions per 100 vehicles, which was similar to that of the contemporary era. But to everyone's surprise, Chevrolet surpassed Japanese Nitian and Nissan in this report. Ford's quality reliability is lower than the average level of the field, but the gap is not very big.
Why does Chevrolet surpass Japanese Sanjie in quality and reliability, and rank high? Maybe you can question the credibility of this investigation report. In fact, J.D.Power has also expressed this problem. There are many factors that lead to the difference in results, but one of the key factors depends on the scientific research on the quality and reliability of this new car. This is not about the "hard quality" of the car, but about the cognitive quality of customers. Because China and the United States have different customer groups, different feelings about safe driving and different emphases, the complaints are different, which leads people to question the conclusions of scientific research.
In addition, the Consumer Report, which is famous for its credibility, and the annual 17 automobile brand reliability investigation and research report are also a highlight. In this survey report, the way of issuing questionnaires to readers is chosen to investigate the common faults and product quality problems of cars that readers have driven safely within 12 months, and send full-time personnel to test cars on specific roads, plus safety factor data information. After comprehensive investigation and statistical results, the average brand score is calculated according to the reliability score of the automobile system.
In this report, both Chevrolet and Ford are classified into a more reliable group, and only Buick is the only very stable American brand. Chevrolet's ranking has increased by five places compared with previous years, and the development is very obvious, while Ford's ranking has dropped by 1 place compared with last year, which is only one step away from the group with unreliable spacing.
In March of 20021year, China Consumers Association released the ranking of vehicle brand complaint rate in1year. Different from other research reports, this report of Consumers Association only ranks according to the total amount, but in order to better let customers master more comprehensive information content, the report is also divided into several parts: quality, safety, price, contract, after-sales maintenance service and other issues.
Beijing Changan Ford won the first place with 850 reports, and Chevrolet ranked first with 442 reports, 1. Among them, the key reports of Beijing Changan Ford and Chevrolet are quality, contract and after-sales maintenance service. In fact, most brands are in the same situation.
To this end, Chevrolet and Ford, which is durable, have already had a significant answer. In terms of quality, Chevrolet is better than Ford. For which brand is good, Chevrolet and Ford are of the same level, but their design styles are different. Chevrolet is cheerful and young. However, Ford prefers fitness. After absorbing many European brands in the 20th century, Ford's cars were largely Europeanized, and the British flavor was not very strong.
Summary: American family cars in China have a prominent disadvantage, which is high fuel consumption. Naturally, this is relative to Japanese family cars. Chevrolet and Ford, as American brands, have one meaning. In addition to eliminating customers' deep impression of high fuel consumption of American cars as soon as possible, it also improved product quality. The poor quality and technology of American cars is also a point that consumers accuse. What's the quality of Chevrolet? Which is more durable, Chevrolet or Ford @20 19?
