China, the New Detroit, home for Bentley & Lamborghini !

CHINA- Auto makers are no longer the only ones flourishing in China�s growing automobile market. With a growing interest in super luxury cars, luxury makers are just as racy to get their models into the market. 
As the international sale of locally manufactured automobiles continues to rise, international interest in local production delineates China�s central role in the automotive industry. �Shanghai is the new Detroit," says Dan Collins of Port Huron, Mich. "They make a lot more cars here than in Detroit." In 1998, when Collin and his grandfather tested Henry Ford, Chinese consumers bought just 1.5 million cars annually, which when compared to last year�s 18.5 million car sales is incredibly low. 
Consumer interest in luxury cars dates back to 2010 when the first luxury Bentley debuted in an Auto China Motor Show. It featured Orange and Magenta as exterior colors; Orange Flame and Magenta Metallic were offered as alternative options. Distinguished by an exterior wing badge, tread plate, and name badge positioned on the center console, the special edition also bore the Design Series China Signature, a signature that owes its �China� mark to a company that believed China to be the ideal market for luxury cars. Bentley�s belief in a luxury makers market has proved forthcoming. 

According to Kingston Chang, business manager of Bentley China, more than 100 Bentley cars were sold in China in the first few months of this year, which doubled that of the same period last year. 

LAMBORGHINI

Other luxury car makers including Lamborghini, the Italian manufacturers, are also rushing to debut their new models. Lamborghini Estoque, priced around 4 million yuan ($589,000), has already been imported to China, wherein the majority of its units are being sold. Loaded with 5.2-liter V10 engine delivering around 560 hp, its engine is the present engine of Audi Q7, which is also capable of delivering 500+hp.  

With Chinese auto makers currently marketing and selling their cars in the international market, luxury makers just may need to implement the same strategy to be more successful in an already diversely competitive China automobile industry.

An incredible Auto technology !

A surging local automobile market it is not only escalating competition between car manufacturers, it is providing a grounds for manufacturers to explore international market expansion. As Beijing Benz Co. leads in this new direction, other manufacturers including Amsia Motors prepare to follow. Last week, Beijing Benz Automobile Co., the joint venture between Mercedes-Benz and Beijing Automobile group, handed over 35 long-wheelbase E-Class sedans to Daimler AG for sale in South America. The vehicle, tailored for Chinese customers who prefer a spacious back seat, gained the interest of new customers who appreciate the model and expect similar models to enter their market in the near future. 

Currently, Beijing Benz Automobile Co. is expanding its production of C-Class sedans and GLK SUV�s; its China plant manufacturers await the shipment of three new Mercedes-Benz compact models for local production starting 2013. The company builds its 3 series and 5 series in China, and its annual output is expected to surpass 300,000 in the next few years.

Meanwhile, in China�s 13 largest cities- Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing, Zhangchun, Dalian, Hangzhou, Jinan, Wuhan, Shenzhen, Hefei, Kunming, and Nanchang- a fast-increasing number of vehicles on the road has increased concerns about the safety of the environment, and the need for alternate fuel vehicles. In response, government officials and local automobile manufacturers are turning to electric cars and electric car technologies for a more efficient way to reduce excessive vehicle emissions and better safeguard the environment.
The Ministry of Finance has recently made a new commitment to promote alternate fuel vehicles by providing subsidies for their production and purchase. According to the Ministry, electric cars are the most viable, most promising option: lower fuel costs, lower emissions, and lower production costs compared to alternate fuel vehicles.
Many of China�s consumers share in the government�s interest to promote the electric car. Now that next generation automobile manufacturers have developed a method of using battery swap stations for longer trips in which drivers can simply replace a depleted battery with a charged battery rather than wait for it to recharge, concerns about the safety, weight, and recharge speed of the lithium ion batteries has become less prevalent. �The country will need to invest 5 billion to 10 billion Yuan by 2020 to build necessary recharging stations,� says Mckinsey in a report by Mckinsey & company.

China�s Auto history is evolving into a very rich fibre of technological advancement that the West has not yet realized. For instance, we can see the road to a very advanced future in the video here for a Straddling bus concept in execution. Electric vehicles and its consumer trends incentivised Chinese automakers including Amsia Motors to produce electric vehicles. While Beijing Benz Automobile Co. and Daimler Northeast Asia are introducing their models to an International market, Amsia Motor�s are selling their Global Brand model to International countries. The company�s strategy is simple: it focuses on the concept of being cost effective, while ensuring both the quality and grade of electric vehicles. In an era where new consumer trends are pressuring governments to promote alternative fuel vehicles to prevent future environmental damages, the interest in electric vehicles resulted promising for Amsia Motors among the Auto manufacturers.
