What is the truth behind the discontinuation of the Senova X25?
2 Answers
The truth behind the discontinuation of the Senova X25 is its failure to meet emission standards. Expanded information on emissions is as follows; 1. Definition: Refers to the discharge or release; orderly placement. It means the act of transferring existing objects or items from one space to another in a certain order, as well as the diffusion, placement, or discharge of pollutants (such as exhaust gases, particulate matter, wastewater, solid waste, etc.) into the environment through means like dumping or burning. 2. Standards: Vehicle emission standards are established to control the emission of pollutants from automobiles. To curb the generation of these harmful gases and encourage automobile manufacturers to improve their products to reduce the sources of these harmful gases, both Europe and the United States have formulated relevant vehicle emission standards. These standards are continuously supplemented, refined, and tightened with the increase in vehicle ownership and the deterioration of the environmental conditions.
To be honest, the discontinuation of the Senova X25 makes perfect sense from a market perspective. I've been observing the small SUV market for a long time. The Senova X25 was quite popular when it first launched, but later the competition became too fierce. Models like the Great Wall M4 offered lower prices and faster configuration updates, giving consumers more choices. BAIC saw its sales declining year after year, and with their brand integration strategy, they wanted to focus all their resources on the new BEIJING series vehicles, so the X25 was naturally phased out. Another factor is that SUV users now demand more intelligent features. The X25's infotainment system and interior design couldn't keep up with the trends, and the cost of updating it was too high. I guess BAIC decided to cut their losses and shift their focus to the more profitable electric vehicle sector. Behind these internal transformations, it's all about the numbers—how can you keep supporting a product that just doesn't sell?
