在汽车行业竞争中，一些急需新产能的汽车厂家，往往会通过托管、收购其他厂家的工厂，来补足自身的生产能力。这一现象今年在汽车行业大面积上演。 近日，北京现代重庆工厂被长安汽车接手，现已改为深蓝汽车生产线。对此，深蓝汽车向经济观察报表示："的确如此，10月下旬就正式换标了，但目前还 未投入使用。" 不久前，吉利汽车收购沈阳原上汽通用北盛工厂，该工厂经改造后将生产银河品牌车型。除此之外，有行业报道称，储能企业楚能新能源即将接盘威马汽车 黄冈工厂。楚能新能源方面向经济观察报表示，"这目前属于没有官宣确认的事，但我们如果造车也不奇怪。" 在四五年前，很多自主品牌车企由于竞争力不佳退出市场，留下了众多闲置产能，其中一些被头部自主车企、造车新势力等企业接盘。而今天，产能闲置的 主角变成了合资车企。今年来，已有日产、神龙汽车的产能被东风自主品牌接手。 这一轮产能"大挪移"的背后，反映的是汽车市场竞争格局的此消彼长，同时也是在汽车行业产能结构性过剩的背景下，各地执行"存量优化"政策的写照。 500万辆目标的催动 吉利收购上汽通用北盛工厂及长安收购北京现代重庆工厂，背后直指这两家自主车企集团"500万辆"的宏伟目标。 2025年1 ...
