With The Automotive Sector In Full Transformation And The Arrival Of New Chinese Automakers In Brazil, The CEO Of JAC Motors Brings An Analysis Of The Entry Of A Strong Competitor, BYD. The Company, Which Promises To Shake Up The Market With Hybrid And Electric Vehicles, Faces Challenges That May Compromise Its Ascension In The Country, According To The Executive Of JAC.
In Recent Years, JAC Motors, Also A Chinese Automaker, Managed To Establish Itself In Brazil By Investing In Innovative Vehicles And In The Development Of A Robust Support Network. The CEO Of JAC Evaluates That BYD, Despite Having A Range Of Technologically Advanced Vehicles, May Be Making A Strategic Mistake By Not Focusing Enough On Local Technical Assistance Services And Consumer Support, A Point Considered Crucial To Gaining The Trust Of Brazilians.
The Arrival Of BYD In Brazil And The Risk In After-Sales
BYD Is Bringing High-Tech Vehicles To Brazil, Including Electric And Hybrid Models That Promise Autonomy And Economy. However, The CEO Of JAC Warns That The Differential Of A Car Goes Beyond Technology.
For Him, The Absence Of A Robust After-Sales Structure Could Be An Obstacle For The Automaker To Gain Ground In A Market Historically Dominated By Giants Such As Volkswagen, Fiat, And Toyota.

The 2012 Mitsubishi Pajero Dakar diesel shows 314,000 km and still draws attention for its reputation for durability; the seven-seater 4×4 SUV handles trails, but signs of severe use may conceal losses for used car buyers.
-
Peugeot publicly acknowledged the errors of the PureTech engine, which caused serious failures in hundreds of thousands of cars, and introduced the new Turbo 100 as a definitive solution, a 1.2 turbo tested for over 3 million kilometers that replaces the faulty belt with a more durable chain.

Automatic cars become ‘cheap’ in Brazil, and models from Toyota, Hyundai, Nissan, and Honda appear for R$ 65,000 with up to 120 hp, CVT transmission, 482 liters of trunk space, keyless entry, and six airbags to tackle traffic without a clutch.

Honda revives a classic from Brazilian streets with a new name, TFT panel, and reprogrammed engine in the 2027 lineup; see the first impressions of the CB500 Hornet, which arrives with 49.6 hp, 4.5 kgf.m torque, 6-speed gearbox, 175 kg, and Showa suspension on Brazilian streets.
“It’s Not Enough To Have Advanced Technology; The Brazilian Consumer Wants Immediate Support. The Absence Of An Efficient And Easily Accessible Assistance Network Can Leave The Consumer Hesitant And Harm BYD’s Image Even Before It Consolidates”, Comments The CEO Of JAC.
Strategies And Challenges Of BYD To Compete In Brazil
The Entry Of BYD Also Represents A Logistical Challenge And Adaptation To The Brazilian Market, Which Requires Specific Solutions Due To The Climate And Road Conditions.
According To The CEO Of JAC, One Of The Success Factors In Brazil Is The Adaptation Of Vehicles To Local Conditions And The Creation Of A Service Infrastructure That Meets The Expectations Of A Consumer Accustomed To Well-Established Brands. JAC, For Example, Invested In Local Partnerships And Adapted Its Models To Regional Demands.
Intense Competition With Established Brands
To Compete With Brands That Have Decades Of Relationship With The Brazilian Public, Such As Volkswagen And Fiat, BYD Needs To Create A Clear Strategy Focused On Trust And Customer Service.
Even With Advanced Vehicles, The CEO Of JAC Believes That The Brand Needs To Build A Closer Connection With The Public By Offering Technical Support And High-Quality After-Sales Assistance.
Despite The Challenges, BYD Is Committed To Expanding Its Electric Vehicle Sales, Targeting A 10% Growth In Sales. The Question That Remains Is: Will The Brazilian Consumer Prefer A Recently Arrived Brand Over Traditional Brands?
The Answer To This Question Depends On BYD’s Ability To Understand And Respond To The Expectations Of The Local Market, Something That The CEO Of JAC Considers Fundamental For Success In Brazil.

Qto esse cara tá ganhando pra falar mal dos híbridoa e elétricos,pra mim não tem credibilidade nenhuma, é a mesma coisa q querer provar q água faz mal,se manca
Ele deve estar com dor de cotovelo, com o crescimento da BYD, porque falar o que os outros tem que fazer, onde a rede dele é pessima( na verdade nem
Existe) tive um JAC T5, nenhuma revenda compra o carro, e não existe rede de assistência! Meu amigo , vá cuidar da sua casa , antes de falar da casa dos outros !!
