CTOnews.com March 2 news, at today's ideal spring communication meeting, ideal Automobile Chairman and CEO Li wants to elaborate some plans and ideas about the future of ideal car.

Li Xiang said: "We will do the extended range route until 2030 to make the efficiency higher and the product better." he pointed out: now we can achieve 600 km battery life with 100 kWh batteries, but with 800V and SiC components, we can use 80 kWh to achieve the same performance, while reducing costs by 30,000 to 40,000 yuan.

Li wants to say that the price cuts on electric cars by some companies in the industry may not be profitable, but they can hit rivals, according to the Shanghai Stock Exchange News.

As for reducing the cost of the whole vehicle, Li Xiang said that the prospect of the power exchange mode is very promising, especially if the battery of the electric car can not be sold to consumers in the future, the cost of the electric vehicle can be lower than that of the fuel car.

In addition, Li Xiang also revealed the next goals for ideal cars, including that the company will become the world's leading artificial intelligence company in 2023 and that passenger cars worth more than 200000 yuan will occupy 35% of the market in 2027.

Li Xiang said: we will not be like the traditional model (refers to the era of software 1.0), a city calibration city NOA. We will uniformly promote multi-city NOA based on the large model and BEV. To put it simply, Li Xiang believes that software 1.0 is that we make our own rules, program for ourselves, and finally program for ourselves, while software 2.0 is for machines to learn from humans, to program for themselves, to make their own rules, and to use them for themselves.

At the end of February, ideal released its results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2022. In a conference call after the results were released, ideal CEO Li wanted to reveal his goals for 2023.

Li Xiang said: "in the past less than a year, ideal Automobile has successively launched three models: ideal L9, ideal L8 and ideal L7, enriching the product matrix and achieving comprehensive coverage of the 300000 to 500000 yuan household SUV market. This year, ideal car will challenge 20% of the luxury SUV market in the price range of 300000 yuan to 500000 yuan."

According to the financial report, ideal Automobile achieved revenue of 45.29 billion yuan in 2022, an increase of 67.7% over the same period last year. 133246 vehicles were delivered in the whole year, an increase of 47.2% over the same period last year. The net loss for the whole year of 2022 was 2.032 billion yuan, and that of 2021 was 320 million yuan, an increase of 53.5% over the same period last year.

The performance outlook for the first quarter of 2023 hit a new quarterly high. Ideal Motor expects delivery of 52000 to 55000 vehicles, an increase of 64.0% to 73.4% over the same period last year, and total revenue of 17.45 billion yuan to 18.45 billion yuan, an increase of 82.5% to 93.0%.

CTOnews.com previously reported that Li wanted to announce the positioning plan for each model of the ideal car on his Weibo:

The full-size ideal L9 will stick to the price range of 40-500000

Medium and large ideal L8 and ideal L7 will stick to the price range of 30-400000

Medium-sized ideal L6 and ideal L5 (non-SUV form) will stick to the price range of 20-300000

In addition, the ideal car will not have less than 200000 models, and the price ranges of all three (full-size, medium-large, medium-sized) size models will be strictly observed.

Li Xiang also said that the absolute investment in R & D of an ideal car model is the highest among Chinese brands (neither multi-brand nor multi-model). In the direct marketing system, the rate of sales and management expenses is the lowest among Chinese brands, which is much lower than that of R & D expenses. Among the directly operated enterprises, the R & D content of each car is the highest and the marketing proportion is the lowest.
