巴黎,10月13日 - 尽管目前电动汽车在美国的采用速度较慢,但美国汽车市场最终将接受电气化,Stellantis首席执行官安东尼奥·菲洛萨周二表示,他预测这一转变将比其他地区进行得更慢。
PARIS, Oct 13 - The US auto market will eventually embrace electrification despite a slow uptake of electric vehicles so far, Stellantis CEO Antonio Filosa said on Tuesday, predicting the shift will happen more slowly than in other regions.
他在巴黎车展边缘活动上表示,电动汽车今年占美国汽车销量的7%,与五年前持平。
Speaking at an event on the sidelines of the Paris motor show, Filosa said EVs accounted for 7% of US auto sales this year, unchanged from five years ago.
“这曾是由法规推动的泡沫。但随后,当政府决定放松监管时,消费者开始偏好其他动力系统,”他说。
"It has been a bubble driven by regulation. But then, when the administration has decided to deregulate, the consumers have been preferring other powertrains", he said.
对于Stellantis而言,北美是其关键市场之一,美国对大型皮卡和SUV的增程器技术兴趣正在增长。“这不是由法规驱动的,而是由客户驱动的,”菲洛萨说。
For Stellantis, which counts North America among its key markets, interest is growing in the US for range-extender technology in large pickups and SUVs. It is "not regulation driven, it's customer driven", Filosa said.
尽管采用速度较慢,菲洛萨表示他“真诚地”相信电气化最终将在美国站稳脚跟。
Despite the slower pace of adoption, Filosa said he "truly" believed electrification would eventually take hold in the US.
“转变的规模和速度肯定会低于其他地区。”他说,Stellantis将能够借鉴欧洲电动汽车推广的经验,随着北美需求的发展。
"The level of magnitude and the speed of transition is going to be lower for sure than other regions." He said Stellantis would be able to draw on lessons learned from Europe's EV rollout as demand develops in North America.
菲洛萨还表示,随着贸易壁垒重塑市场,汽车行业正变得不那么全球化。
Filosa also said the automotive sector was becoming less global as trade barriers reshape markets.
“全球范围内的最新贸易制度触发了区域化进程。因此,之前全球化的行业现在变得不那么全球化,而更具区域性。”他说。
"The recent trade regimens around the world have triggered the process of regionalisation. So, what was the global industry before, now it's less global and more regional," he said.
因此,汽车制造商需要更紧密地关注当地客户偏好和法规,同时保持全球规模,特别是在技术方面,技术在行业中发挥着越来越重要的作用。
As a result, automakers need to focus more closely on local customer preferences and regulations while maintaining global scale, particularly in technology, which is playing an increasingly important role in the industry.
“技术很重要,因此公司适应趋势并找到途径非常重要。我们的方式是合作伙伴关系。因此,我们看到许多可以探索的重要合作伙伴关系。”他说。
"Techs are important, so it's very important for the companies to adapt to the trend and find a way. Our way is partnerships. So we see so many important partnerships that we can explore," he said.
