"
Since the establishment of Weilai Automobile, it has persisted in the research and development of power exchange technology and the construction of power exchange network. Weineng is a battery asset management company based on the "vehicle-electricity separation" mode, which is the result of users' recognition of the power exchange mode. Now, with the support of the competent department of the industry, the certification and announcement of the Lulai model without battery sales have been completed, and the first user who chooses BaaS mode to buy a car has completed the whole car purchase process, including loan, insurance, license, etc., and the innovative mode of car-electricity separation and battery rental has changed from an assumption to a reality.
Based on BaaS, the price of Xilai car has dropped by 70, 000 yuan.

At the same time, Li Bin said that at present, there are more investors who are willing to invest in the battery asset company, and other car brands can cooperate with this company in the future.
Weilai battery rental service BaaS, is based on the concept of car electricity separation, battery rental, rechargeable and upgradeable, and is a breakthrough innovation in technology and business model. Users who choose BaaS mode to buy Lulai cars do not need to buy battery packs when buying cars, the price of motor vehicle sales tickets does not include the price of battery packs, and the down payment and monthly repayment of users' financial loans are also calculated at the price of removing the battery packs.

Users who choose BaaS rental service will reduce the price by 70, 000 yuan, then the purchase price of the vehicle is 313600 yuan. According to the 30% down payment, the down payment is 94080 yuan, the loan for 3 years, the rate is 2.99%, then the monthly payment is 6645 yuan. If the down payment is 15%, the monthly payment will be even lower, and users can choose.
