自动技术影响中国市场的汽车所有量

德勤中国汽车行业管理咨询主管合伙人Marco Hecker向《汽车金融新闻》表示，中国消费者对自主技术的信任程度越来越高，这将使人们驾驶私人汽车出行的距离日趋减少。尽管消费者长途出行时仍需驾车，但由于政府对公共交通的投资以及私营网约车服务的发展，已经使得中国的汽车拥有量有所下降，Hecker说。自主技术的发展将进一步推动这一趋势，但在消费者眼中，并非所有供应商都处在同一地位。根据德勤6月份的一项研究显示，相比于汽车制造商，消费者对技术提供商的创新工作更有信心。从Navigant的研究来看，尽管戴姆勒、奥迪、宝马和通用汽车等公司是原始设备制造商中自动汽车生产的领军者，但中国消费者对阿里巴巴、腾讯、百度和滴滴等科技公司的信任度更高。根据德勤的全球汽车消费者研究报告显示，四分之三的中国消费者认为自主技术会较为安全，这一指标在去年仅为34％。然而，53％的受访者信任以自动汽车为业务重点的公司将技术推向市场，而28％的受访者相信原始设备制造商也能做到。 Hecker说，自动汽车技术主要是由高级算法驱动，在这一点上，科技公司通常比原始设备制造商拥有更多的优势。他以中国最大的汽车服务平台“滴滴”公司为例，该公司拥有约3,500名专注于开发该技术的工程师和数据科学家。但是，建立合作是非常必要的。 Hecker说：“科技公司需要[原始设备制造商的]集成和系统工程专业知识，而其供应链和卓越的生产制造水平更是不可忽视的优势。” 欲了解关于中国市场的更多信息，敬请参加将于9月5日至6日在上海金茂君悦大酒店举行的亚洲汽车金融融资租赁高峰会。欲了解关于此次会议的更多信息，请访问autofinanceasia.com或点击此处注册报名。
