On November 28, it was reported by relevant media that Hengchi Automobile's Tianjin factory was in the process of downsizing, with 60% planned to be downsized. Some employees had been interviewed internally, and some of them would take a vacation. The contraction of Tianjin factory means that Hengchi's sales performance is not optimistic.

Liu Yongzhuo once said: "Hengchi 5 has become a certainty". At the end of October, Hengchi Automobile officially started delivery, with the first batch of 100 vehicles delivered. Then came the quality control problem of Hengchi 5.

A video blogger said that when Hengchi 5 got hold of it, "bug" appeared. The words on the screen of the car machine overlapped with the words, and there was an abnormal noise when the car brake was pressed. It indicated that the car suddenly lay down when the remaining 12 kilometers were left; At the same time, there are problems such as the seat ventilation cannot be turned on, and the seat heating cannot be turned off.

In addition, in terms of auxiliary driving, the blogger said that "nothing can be used".

Previously, Hengchi Automobile, in order to reassure users, paid all the pre-sale deposit, big order and tail payment of the buyer to the special account of Tianjin Jinbin Notary Office for supervision; Pay the balance when delivering the car. The car can be returned within 15 days after picking up the car. The car purchase money will be returned from the special account of the notary office; If the subscription is not successful, the advance sale deposit of 1000 yuan will be returned from the special account of the notary office on August 31.

Since October, not only Hengchi, but also Weilai/Ideals/Xiaopeng/Zero Run sales have declined to varying degrees. As soon as Hengchi Automobile entered the market, it encountered problems such as quality control being questioned and layoffs in the factory. Besides, car building is a money burning business, which undoubtedly makes Hengchi Automobile worse.
