“4 New” Thinking, Interpretation of ”New Power of Joint Venture”
bZ5 is the first brand-new product developed by FAW Toyota's Chinese team under Toyota's RCE system, and it is the starting point of Toyota's localization strategy, which is of great milestone significance.
Mr. Dong Xiuhui, Secretary of the Party Committee and General Manager of FAW Toyota Motor Sales Co., Ltd. said at the press conference, “bZ5 is a new product proposal and a new joint venture answer sheet given by FAW Toyota in the new era of smart power”; at the same time, as a product that follows the past and opens up the future, bZ5 will also be a new product that will be a new joint venture in the era of smart power” by FAW Toyota. The bZ5 will also be a landmark product for FAW Toyota to create a “new power of joint venture” in the era of smart electricity.
The “New Power of Joint Venture” consists of “4 new”, namely new users, new cars, new marketing and new mission.
The “new users” are not only the youthful people with a young mindset across age groups, but also the most independent-minded people, who will not be easily fooled and have firm claims and extremely wise judgment. Therefore, the “new users” of bZ5 are “highly knowledgeable, active, happy and pioneering users, and the smartest users who return to rationality.

Although the industry's positioning of the “new car” varies, FAW Toyota believes that its essence lies in “being able to attract new users”. bZ5 clearly interprets this concept by focusing on the three dimensions of safety, originality and emotion.
Safety dimension: bZ5 adheres to the strict Toyota standards and excellent manufacturing quality of the whole industrial chain, and sets a new benchmark for automobile safety with its excellent real-world test results of “the first pure electric vehicle with real-world deep water escape test” and “the first vehicle with real-world high-speed crash test in the industry. New benchmark for automotive safety.
Originality dimension: As the first model of Toyota's localized original development, bZ5 has realized the verification of high safety and quality through the whole process of forward development.
Touching dimension: bZ5 is “touching” in both exterior design and interior experience, and many experiencers have commented that it is “a car that can touch people's hearts”.
For the “new marketing”, FAW Toyota emphasizes that it must adhere to the “conscience, perseverance, anti-involvement”:
Conscientiousness: adhere to the core values of the enterprise, to ensure that the direction of marketing does not deviate.
Conscientiousness: not to be moved by the environment, always insisting on doing the right thing.


Anti-involvement: The core lies in “remodeling the environment” - to build a new market ecology with the purpose of real feedback to users and oriented to value marketing, and to completely block the “price war” that harms the industry's safety, product quality, supply chain health, dealers' survival and consumers' interests. The vicious cycle of “price war” is completely blocked, which jeopardizes the safety of the industry, product quality, supply chain health, dealers' survival and consumers' interests.
Regarding the “new mission”, FAW Toyota pointed out that over the past 20 years, the joint venture has successfully accomplished the historical mission of “allowing ordinary Chinese consumers to drive world-class cars”. In the face of the new situation, FAW Toyota is willing to join hands with industry partners to cultivate a high-quality joint venture with more strength and sustainable blood-generating ability, with the goal of “enabling every Chinese consumer to drive a world-class intelligent electric new car”. At the same time, relying on Toyota's localization strategy, FAW Toyota will continue to be committed to:
Realize the common well-being of the company and its customers;
Promoting the sustainable development of the automotive industry;
Contribute to the high-value output of automotive civilization.
