You don't have to wait long to place an order to solve the problem of mass production of electric vehicles.

SMM: Hyundai Motor has overcome the problem of mass production of electric cars in the British market, and the company recently announced that it plans to become one of the largest suppliers of electric cars in the UK in the next few years. Hyundai said it would supply thousands of electric cars in the region in the second half of 2020 and would be able to withdraw existing cars in a few days if buyers place an order now.

A survey conducted by PA News in May 2019 showed that many British electric car owners had to wait several months to get their vehicles, while Hyundai and Kia customers were even more miserable, waiting for nearly a year.

In January 2020, Hyundai announced that it would begin to increase the production of electric cars to try to meet the needs of users. The Czech factory in Europe has begun to produce Hyundai KONA new energy models (the domestic version is called Beijing Hyundai Anchino Pure Electric). The impact of the new crown pneumonia epidemic in Europe is beginning to fade, most dealers in the UK have resumed business, and modern companies are confident of boosting sales of electric cars.

In the Chinese market, Beijing Hyundai Anxino pure electric car was officially launched six months ago, the new car continues the design style of overseas prototype cars, the powertrain is replaced with lithium batteries from Ningde era 64.2kWh, and the NEDC has a range of 500km. Car House, through consultation with relevant dealers, found that Onchino pure electric cars have just finished their promotion, and most stores do not have existing cars at present, but if they are booked in advance, they can basically mention existing cars in a week's time. In addition, Festa pure electric cars are also in abundant supply, users can go directly to the store for test driving. It can be seen that the procrastination of "waiting for a year to place an order" has not occurred for modern electric models in the Chinese market.

Recently, Nanning Urban Construction Investment Group and Huahui New Material Technology Co., Ltd. signed an agreement for the lithium/sodium battery dry-process separator intelligent manufacturing project. The total investment for the project is approximately 500 million yuan. It plans to build a new production line with an annual capacity of 1 billion square meters of dry-process separators for lithium/sodium batteries. The project will introduce Guangxi's first new-generation dry-process uniaxial stretching and 4.2-meter-wide biaxial stretching battery separator production line. It is expected that upon reaching full capacity, the annual output value will be approximately 800 million yuan, creating 170 jobs, and establishing the first battery base film production base in Guangxi.
