· Japanese car has become a hot potato, the Japanese car owner is temporarily unable to claim

Affected by the Diaoyu Islands incident, the Japanese cars that were once sought after in China have become hot potato.

Recently, the latest data from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers showed that passenger cars in China achieved a year-on-year growth of 11.30% in August, while Japanese cars fell against the market, and sales growth fell by 2% year-on-year, making it the only negative growth.

According to the data, the sales of foreign brand passenger cars in August increased by 2.3%, 11.1%, 14.2%, 14.1% and 11.7% respectively compared with the previous month, compared with the same period of last year. In comparison, Japanese brand passenger cars fell 2%, while German, American, Korean, and French systems grew by 26.5%, 19.9%, 13%, and 4.21%, respectively.

The most worrying thing in Japanese companies is Toyota. According to sales data released recently, from January to August, Toyota's cumulative sales in China was 596,100 units, and sales in August were only 75,300 units, down 15.1% from the same period of last year. From January to August, FAW Mazda achieved sales of 7.86. Ten thousand vehicles, down 11% year-on-year.

Many Japanese car owners have become treacherous due to the irrational car accidents that have occurred in individual areas. Ms. Li, the owner of Mazda 6 in Daxing District, Beijing, told the reporter of “Investor News”: “I don’t dare to drive now, I am going to put a patriotic slogan with the Chinese flag on the car.” What worries her is, “If The car is smashed, will the insurance company compensate?"

Sales decline, Japanese car dealers are cautious

“Golden September and Silver 10” has always been the peak season for the automotive industry, but Japanese cars began to enter the winter in August. The recent Diaoyu Islands incident has greatly affected various advertising campaigns, marketing promotions and brand promotion activities for Japanese brands.

On September 19th, the "Investor News" reporter came to a Dongfeng Honda Automobile 4S shop in Beijing and found that the store door was locked. Although there were staff members in the store, they did not open the door. The parking space for parking some of the stock vehicles in front of the door was empty, and the exhibition cars in the parking lot disappeared.

The store sales consultant Mr. Zhang said in an interview with the "Investor News" reporter that the Diaoyu Islands incident had a great impact on the sales performance of the store. From September 17th to 18th, the store was completely in a state of suspension. Now the exhibition car in the exhibition hall is still parked in the basement, and the garage door is locked. In the past week, there was no customer at all in the store, and there was no car for one week.

Mr. Zhang revealed that there were no fewer than dozens of Japanese brand car dealers in Beijing on September 18. There are quite a few stores that have not even opened their doors for business this week. At present, the most frequently handled business for customers coming to the store is to return the order.

Li Bing, an in-store staff member of Toyota Motor Dealer, told the Investor newspaper: "In the past ninety months, it was difficult to take a full day off every week. At present, it is not difficult to take a week off. Without customers, it is meaningless to go to work. ."

Not only did the dealers react quickly, but the car factory also chose to shut down the factory to survive the dangerous period. According to Reuters, Honda Motor spokesman Natsuno Asanuma said that Honda’s five plants in Guangzhou and Wuhan will be shut down on September 18 and 19, and their dealers are currently not suitable for receiving vehicles; sales continue to decline. Mazda Motor also decided to stop production in Nanjing, China, for four days from September 17 to deal with the crisis; on September 18, part of the production department of Zhengzhou Nissan Zhonghao Factory decided to suspend production for one day.

"Investor News" reporter understands that the current Japanese auto factory's single-day output is more than 1,000 units, domestic Honda's full-scale models in China monthly sales of about 60,000; Mazda Nanjing factory annual output of about 300,000; plus Nissan And Toyota, a rough calculation of only a few days in the past few days, the number of Japanese cars in China reduced production by nearly 10,000 units.

However, the Diaoyu Islands incident is not the only cause of the decline in Japanese car sales. In recent years, the Japanese car market share has declined. Since 2008, Japanese cars have reached a market share of 30.5% in China, and have continued to decline in the next three years, and will fall to the lowest point in 2012. The earthquake in Japan, the recent recalls in recent years, and the declining product competitiveness are the main causes of the decline in Japanese car sales.

Han Feng, secretary-general of the Automobile Dealers Chamber of Commerce of the National Federation of Industry and Commerce, said in an interview with the reporters of the "Investor News" that Chinese consumers are becoming more and more aware of the automobile and their consumption concept is becoming more and more mature. The fact that German and American cars with higher technical level and higher manufacturing technology are more and more sought after in China are not a fact that cannot be changed.

The Japanese car owner is temporarily unable to claim

With the fermentation of the Diaoyu Islands incident, there have been illegal activities such as snoring in many parts of the country. Many Japanese car owners expressed concern about whether the insurance company has any liability for compensation.

To this end, the "Investor News" reporters respectively called PICC, Ping An, China Life and many other insurance companies that accept auto insurance business, have received a unified reply, "the current vehicle can only be filed, fixed damage. Whether the payment is still Did not receive the above level."

Mr. Liang Jun, a resident of the Dongfeng Nissan Auto Dealer, told the reporters that the current vehicle owner can do a timely report and come to the loss. Whether or not to lose money afterwards needs to follow the decision of the Insurance Regulatory Commission. The China Insurance Regulatory Commission does not follow the day, no one can say whether to lose money.

Not only in the Beijing area, but also in the insurance claims hotline in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Xi'an and other places where the situation was more serious, the reporters received the same reply. Zhang Qing (pseudonym), an insider of the People's Insurance Company, who has been engaged in insurance for many years, said in an interview with the reporter of the "Investor News": "At present, the personnel who accept the vehicle business of the beneficiary must be handled with caution. The damage and the nuclear damage are all Normal, only the claims are suspended. Although there is no strict set-up and no loss of money, according to a series of terms signed between the insurance company and the customer, such a case should not be settled. After all, this is a human factor. However, I personally think that Insurance companies are still likely to claim."

The "Investor News" reporter found that when he read the auto insurance exemption clause, the second article clearly stated "war, military conflict, terrorist activities, riots, seizures, fines, seizures, government expropriation". That is to say, if the parade is defined as a riot, the insurance company will not pay.

However, on the one hand, there are very few vehicles being shackled. On the other hand, the probability of the incident being defined as riot is very small. The insurance company should make a relatively reasonable response to the consumer after a certain period of time.
