Group 4: Operational Challenges - FF's production and delivery capabilities are currently seen as a weakness, with potential issues in production processes, supply chain stability, and quality control posing risks to meeting delivery timelines [7][8]. - Experts suggest that FF must enhance its production technology and supply chain management to ensure reliable delivery of high-quality vehicles [8][9]. Group 5: Future Outlook - Industry experts believe that while FF faces significant challenges, the new pre-orders present a chance for recovery if the company can effectively address its financial and operational issues [9][10]. - There is a consensus that FF needs to diversify its funding sources and improve brand recognition to attract more customers and partners [8][9].

进入2025年以来，受全球经济增长放缓导致需求减少、主机厂转型压力传导、美国关税政策等多重 因素影响，跨国汽车零部件企业正经历新一轮"倒闭潮"。近日，全球汽车零部件巨头马瑞利集团宣布， 为全面重组长期债务，已在美国特拉华州地方法院正式提交破产保护申请。与此同时，德国汽车零部件 供应商施洛特也在破产边缘挣扎。 需求下滑 供应商承压 马瑞利集团申请破产保护令业内略微有些震惊，这家"日意混血"的零部件集团，由原日产旗下零部件供 应商康奈可和原菲亚特克莱斯勒（FCA）旗下的玛涅蒂·马瑞利于2019年合并而成。 据悉，2016年11月，美国私募股权巨头KKR从日产手中收购了康奈可，又于2019年将当时FCA旗下的 意大利零部件供应商马瑞利收入囊中。随后，KKR将康奈可和马瑞利进行合并。由于马瑞利这个名号 在全球比康奈可更响亮，因此，合并后的新集团仍被命名为"马瑞利"。日产以及2021年由FCA和标致雪 铁龙合并诞生的Stellantis集团是马瑞利的核心客户。 事实上，包括施洛特在内，诸多传统零部件企业在向电动化、智能化转型中遭遇严峻挑战。一方面，电 动化转型需要巨额研发投入，但市场需求增速不及预期，通用汽车、福特等主 ...
