What do Japanese think of German cars?

Japan and Germany are both big industrial countries and big automobile countries. German cars are more advanced and luxurious, and Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi have always been the most popular brands among consumers all over the world. Japanese cars are also more practical and durable. We know that Germans don't like Japanese cars. Germans pursue manipulation and fun, which is incompatible with the Japanese concept of making cars. Germans don't like Japanese cars. Do Japanese like German cars? What do Japanese think of German cars?

In Japan, the best-selling brands are independent brands, such as Toyota, Honda, Suzuki and Mazda. Because self-owned brand cars are strong enough, it is difficult for foreign brands to become bigger and stronger in Japan. We know that Japan is a country lacking in resources, and their cars pay more attention to quality and fuel economy. Similarly, the Japanese are also very pragmatic, and most of them choose their own brand cars.

In the field of high-end luxury cars, even in Japan, German cars are very popular. It is also enviable to own Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Bentley and Rolls-Royce cars in Japan. We often see some Japanese movies, and most of the black society bosses ride Mercedes-Benz, which shows that Mercedes-Benz is still very popular among high-end consumer groups in Japan. In Japan, German high-end luxury brands are more popular than independent high-end luxury brands. Sales of Lexus, Acura, England and finidi are actually relatively average.

At present, the most popular cars in Japan are still local small cars and hybrid cars. In various videos, we will see clean streets and countless square cars in Japan. K-car is particularly popular in Japan. This kind of box car is very intelligent and convenient, with huge space, excellent fuel economy and policy protection. Hybrid cars, the best in the world, are also available in Japan, and Japanese hybrid cars are also particularly popular.

Germans don't like Japanese cars because they are too tools, which is different from the German car concept. Japanese still prefer German cars, especially high-end luxury brands, but most Japanese just use cars as a means of transportation and buy their own brands, while the rich will still choose German high-end luxury cars.

I don't pay much attention to cars in China, but I just stayed in Japan a few years ago, visited Japanese car 4s stores and talked with Japanese friends about Japanese car policies, so I just know something about this issue.

Japanese people have strong spending power. Although it is a big automobile manufacturing country, it still agrees with German cars with good performance and high brand, while Korean cars with low quality are hard to find. The top five Japanese cars are Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, BMW, Audi and Wowo, all of which are German cars, while Lexus, an expensive luxury car, is rarely bought. Every Japanese family has more than one car, but they don't drive private cars easily. Instead, they choose more public transport, such as trams, light rail and bats. In some places with inconvenient transportation, the Japanese always walk, feeling that the Japanese can really walk, just take one step and leave at any time. Japanese people choose buses more, which is said to be related to their high driving cost, especially expensive vehicles, so they park their cars at home on weekdays and drive out on weekends. Perhaps this policy is very effective for the prevention and control of air pollution, especially for China, where automobile exhaust emissions rank first among air pollutants.

The following are the car sales in Tokyo, Japan in the first half of 20 16.

In fact, before 2005, the brand Lexus was not sold in Japan, so the luxury car market in Japan has always been dominated by German luxury brands, while luxury brands such as Lexus, British finidi and Acura are still sparing no effort to compete for the American auto market. Later, Lexus brand returned to China, but it was still not dominant in the competition with Mercedes-Benz and BMW. Because Japanese consumers regard Mercedes-Benz as the top in their bones!

More interestingly, some of our friends are very fond of Lexus and think that driving Lexus is more tasteful and low-key (it is said that it is not bad for a hundred years and can even be passed down for three generations? ), but it is not convincing. In Japan's domestic market, Lexus is imported (the price is very high), and even Japanese consumers think Mercedes-Benz is top-notch, but our individual consumers think Lexus is better than Mercedes-Benz? This is really a ridiculous thing (I have to say that the marketing system of Lexus is really strong, BBA does not regard Lexus as a finished product, and Lexus has long regarded BBA as a thorn in the side)!

Many friends say that Japanese consumers are pragmatic, practical and not vain, so they all buy cars and K cars? Actually, this is a false proposition. The reason is who doesn't like luxury cars and big cars? For a simple example, who doesn't want GTR? There is a simple reason. Japanese consumers also like luxury cars and GTR, but it is easier to buy Corolla and k-car, so choose the easiest one. In our place, you don't need to provide proof of parking space to buy a private car, but you can buy a car or even a good car if you have money; In Japan, you can't buy a private car without private parking spaces. Later, in order to stimulate the automobile industry and relax the rules appropriately, we can only buy small K cars without private parking spaces!

So k-car is popular in Japan, not because Japanese consumers are pragmatic or don't like big cars, but because there is no way. And almost everyone has a car, so there is almost no demand for space. At present, it has just become popular in China, which means that one car for a family is likely to be used by six or seven people. So can the space be small? So when we buy a car, there is a demand for space, which is also in line with the actual situation! Japanese consumers are also vain and like Mercedes-Benz, but it is not easy for them to buy a Mercedes-Benz due to various rules! Actually, that's it. Japanese consumers worship German luxury brands, and Mercedes-Benz BMW is full of hard goods. In American luxury car rankings, Mercedes-Benz and BMW rank first and second respectively (Lexus ranks third), and so does the European luxury car market. In our country, Mercedes-Benz and BMW also occupy the top two luxury car sales, while the world's three major automobile markets and Mercedes-Benz BMW occupy the top two. Is this enough to explain the problem? In Japan, the recognition of Mercedes-Benz and BMW is much higher than that of Lexus (Audi is worse); Few consumers in Japan can touch the level of luxury brands. Since there is, why not choose top brands? Therefore, Mercedes-Benz is completely top-notch in the eyes of the previous generation of Japanese consumers, while the younger generation's pursuit of Mercedes-Benz is gradually declining, but it has a higher enthusiasm for BMW!

This is a very interesting topic. As a China person, this answer seems to be not objective.

The Japanese feel that the technological innovation of German cars is not enough, and the interior is always the same, lacking fresh elements;

Germans feel that their domestically produced cars are mature, durable and affordable.

Some people in China think that German cars are durable, while others think that Japanese cars have good engines, low failure rate and fashionable appearance. I broke up and began to imitate, but after the car was built, I thought it was better to import cars from Germany and Japan.

The automobile development in China is changing with each passing day, and the progress is very obvious, but there are still many deficiencies to be improved. I believe that catching up with Japan and Germany in the near future is just around the corner.

I have been to Japan several times, South Korea and other Southeast Asian countries. * * * Similarly, rich people in Japan and South Korea still buy BBA, and there are few domestic Lexus and Jens.

Don't over-myth Japanese cars, and don't over-belittle them.

German cars were not taken into account.

The two are not contradictory in nature. This is also the main reason why Japan's automobile manufacturing industry is backward when turbocharging and new energy sources are used around the world.

The secret of the success of Japanese automobile industry is "saving fuel".

The iteration of Japanese automobile industry is not what the global market needs, but what Japan needs at home.

This situation even makes Japan less active in turbocharging. After entering turbocharging in Europe, Toyota and Nissan have always insisted on natural inhalation. One of the reasons is that Japanese car companies have established great advantages in self-priming in the past, and there are still many potentials to be tapped. What they care about is the reduction of actual fuel consumption, not the reduction of fuel consumption under NEDC law (Europe's riding rules for better road conditions), so even the riding conditions in Japan are closer to low-speed driving-this condition is unfriendly to turbocharging and very friendly to hybrid power.

In other words, JC08 (Japan's more congested cycle law) directly led to the popularity of hybrid power and natural desire in Japan, and overseas has already completely entered the turbo, so this is the "island syndrome" that Japanese automobile industry can't get rid of.

As long as Japan's domestic energy structure does not change, Japanese auto companies will stick to it. This is also one of the main reasons why Toyota Hybrid has been promoted around the world for 30 years, but it has not yet formed a scale, but it has never given up.

Master: Even though the world has fallen into a turbocharged ocean, self-priming and mixing are the most popular in Japan.

At the same time, the whole country in Japan firmly believes that traditional cars will not be eliminated in a short time. Toyota, Honda, Mazda and other brands all believe that the pure tram advocated all over the world is only a transition period, but this transition period will be longer. Honda and Mazda are particularly stubborn on this point.

An Tian Long, CEO of Honda, and Mazda Chuangchi, the "father of the blue sky", both publicly expressed their views on pure electric technology.

The secret of the success of German automobile industry is "advanced".

The scene in Europe is completely different from that in Japan. Manufacturing is the lifeblood of Europe. If no one buys it, it is definitely something that Europeans don't want to see. Therefore, European car companies always pay attention to global policy trends. They make what the world needs, which is why Germany has an Industry 4.0 strategy focusing on high-end manufacturing.

This is also the main reason for the popularity of Mercedes-Benz V8, Volkswagen W 12 and BMW Zhiliu. But when the whole world turns to economy, fuel saving and new energy, European car companies turn faster than anyone else.

So basically, the two regions are completely unrelated groups, and they do not interfere with each other and have no views on each other. Different goals will naturally lead to different ideas and viewpoints.

I hope it helps you.

What do Japanese think of German cars? The first thing to look at is the difference between Japanese cars and German cars.

Due to the shortage of resources, Japan leads the world in fine products, small size, high fuel saving rate, thin sheet metal and automobile technology.

German automobile development also has a long history. The automobile industry is very developed, with strong workmanship, strong power and low fuel saving rate.

In short, Japanese people are stupid when they look at German cars.

In Japan, rich people drive German cars and they are left-handed! In Germany, only the poor drive Japanese cars (mostly Eastern European immigrants or Turkish refugees)! My colleague, a Japanese Chinese, told me personally. I stayed in Germany for six years and saw it with my own eyes! So there is no rebuttal! ! !

Japanese street luxury car or BBA. What do you think of Japan? German BBA is a German brand and a popular brand.

Japanese are junk antique technology. Look at that HR 16 engine. Will not be replaced in 20 years.

The 4-speed CVT is still using "Face Covering" and "Face Covering"

Mercedes-Benz uses 9AT! It's like a tortoise and a rabbit racing.
