For the rumor of "Cyris SF5 suspension", Xilis responded on January 5: "SF5 has not stopped production, and plans to restart bookings around the Spring Festival."
The reporter noted that on January 5, Xilis posted a letter to SF5 users on the official Weibo. Cyrus said that SF5 will continue to accept user orders. After the user places an order, a special person will be arranged to follow up and assist in delivery in a timely manner. For users who have already been delivered, the first owner of the full SF5 series of commitments, in addition to enjoying the 8-year / 160,000 km warranty of the three-electric system, will also be upgraded to enjoy the lifetime warranty of the whole vehicle and the range extender (see the "Lifetime Warranty Service Rules" of the Cyris APP for details).
At the same time, "in order to further thank the support of SF5 users, if the first car owner changes to other models of the company's vehicles within four years, he can also get a discount of 10,000 yuan on the basis of the current rights and interests of the new car to be purchased." ”
The reporter noted that in December 2021, Huawei and Xilix joined hands to create a new brand AITO officially released, and officially launched the first model "Q&A M5" at Huawei's winter flagship new product launch. Subsequently, a number of Huawei's Cyrus SF5 exhibition vehicles were withdrawn, the relevant LOGO and publicity were all replaced by AITO, and the exhibition cars were also updated to "Q&A M5", and the Cyrus SF5 was basically missing. At the same time, some consumers found that Cyrus SF5 was also removed from huawei shopping mall, and it is suspected that the Cyrus brand has fully made way for AITO.
According to the data of the Association, the sales volume of the Selix SF5 from April to November 2021 was 129, 204, 1097, 507, 715, 1040, 2205 and 1446, respectively, and the cumulative sales volume from January to November was 7080. Previously, Huawei Yu Chengdong had said that it would achieve the goal of "5 million vehicles per year".
【Car World Reviews】
The Cyrus SF5, which came with high heat, is a "work" after the "marriage" between Huawei and Cyris, and the market response is general. After the unveiling of AITO's new brand and new car, Cyrus SF5 has more signs of "giving way", and even Huawei and Cyris will focus on AITO in the future. Although the sales volume is not high, but also at this node to make such a thing, but also needs to be explained by Xilis in particular, it can only be said that the market's attention to Huawei's car manufacturing is still very high, and Huawei and Xilis are a bit hasty about the practice of "eliminating old cars", which should make the transition period between new and old brands and models more satisfactory.
