joint venture brands are currently actively saving themselves. volkswagen first cooperated with xiaopeng, and now skoda is also about to start.

recently, according to media reports, skoda is in talks with saic. drawing on the cooperation model between volkswagen and xiaopeng, skoda brand models will use saic roewe's dmh super hybrid system to launch plug-in hybrid models that are more in line with the needs of chinese consumers.

the roewe dmh platform was developed by the roewe brand under saic, and it excels in fuel consumption and range. it is said that the models equipped with this platform can achieve a fuel consumption of less than 3 liters per 100 kilometers and a range of 2,000 kilometers.

skoda's sales in the chinese market have continued to decline since 2018. in 2018, skoda sold 341,000 vehicles in china, but this figure has dropped by more than 90%. in 2023, skoda's sales in china were only 22,800 vehicles, a decrease of 48.9% compared with 44,600 vehicles in 2022.

if this trend continues, skoda will face the risk of withdrawing from the chinese market. however, skoda's performance in the global market is relatively good, with global sales of 866,800 vehicles in 2023, an increase of 18.5% year-on-year.

if this cooperation is successful, it will not only help skoda's recovery in the chinese market, but may also become an important step in its global strategic adjustment.
