Het Taiwanese bedrijf heeft een 50%-belang verworven in Mitsubishi Electric Mobility, de tak van de toeleverancier die zich bezighoudt met auto-apparatuur.<\/p>\n<p>Ondanks de naam,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> Foxconn heeft nog niet<\/span> heeft een Japans bedrijf op het gebied van elektrische voertuigen overgenomen. De aangekondigde gelijkwaardige joint venture richt zich op de productie van onderdelen. Mitsubishi Electric Mobility produceert dynamo\u2019s, bobines, radarsensoren, stuurmotoren en dergelijke. De activiteiten op het gebied van elektrische aandrijflijnen vormen slechts een klein deel van de totale activiteiten.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Kortingsprijs<\/h4>\n<p>De Japanse leverancier produceert ook modules voor omvormers voor elektrische voertuigen, maar die maken geen deel uit van de overeenkomst. Toch is het de bedoeling om uiteindelijk de krachten te bundelen en elektrische architecturen op de markt te brengen. Maar geen complete elektrische auto\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>Foxconn betaalt via zijn investeringsdochter Lin Yin 115 miljard yen (ongeveer $727 miljoen) voor de joint venture, wat zes keer de bedrijfswinst van het bedrijf bedraagt. Al met al geeft Mitsubishi, dat bezig is met een herstructurering van zijn activiteiten, Foxconn een aanzienlijke korting.<\/p>\n<p>Via de joint venture willen beide bedrijven gezamenlijk platforms voor elektrische voertuigen ontwikkelen. Deze zullen niet uitsluitend door Mitsubishi worden gebruikt, maar ook aan derden worden verkocht. Mitsubishi levert de onderdelen; Foxconn zorgt voor de \u2018China Speed\u2019 \u2013 of moeten we zeggen: \u2018Taiwan Speed\u2019? \u2013 om de ontwikkelingscyclus te versnellen.<\/p>\n<h4>\u201cAnchor in Japan\u201d<\/h4>\n<p>Dit is niet de eerste keer dat Foxconn en Mitsubishi de handen ineen hebben geslagen. Beide bedrijven hebben afgelopen zomer een 50-50-samenwerkingsovereenkomst voor bussen gesloten met Mitsubishi Fuso, en Mitsubishi verkoopt in Australi\u00eb en Nieuw-Zeeland een door Foxconn gebouwde ASX.<\/p>\n<p>Jun Seki, Chief Strategy Officer voor elektrische voertuigen bij Foxconn, die als leidinggevende bij Nissan ervaring heeft opgedaan in de automobielsector, zei dat de elektronische besturingstechnologie van Mitsubishi \u201chet meest aantrekkelijke aspect\u201d van de deal was. Hij voegde eraan toe dat hij van het bedrijf \u201cons anker in Japan\u201d wil maken. Een brug om samen te werken met andere toeleveranciers en autofabrikanten. Die visie sluit aan bij Foxconns bedrijfsmodel als fabrikant voor externe partners.<\/p>\n<h4>Concurrerend EV-platform<\/h4>\n<p>Foxconn, vooral bekend als de assemblagefabrikant van de Apple iPhone, koestert al geruime tijd grote ambities in de auto-industrie. Maar het bedrijf heeft een paar keer van koers moeten veranderen. Al enkele jaren stapelen de EV-projecten en mislukkingen zich op, vari\u00ebrend van Foxtron-prototypes en de mislukte fabriek in Lordstown in de VS tot de samenwerking met Fisker, die samen met Fisker ten onder ging.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Maar Mitsubishi, hoewel het niet in topvorm verkeert, is geen Fisker. Het lijkt een slimmere keuze om in Japan technologische geloofwaardigheid te verwerven via een partner wiens naam deuren opent bij Japanse autofabrikanten en die nog steeds banden heeft met Nissan en Renault, dan opnieuw op een fabriek in te zetten.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Voor Japanse autofabrikanten zou dit wel eens een kans kunnen zijn. Ze krijgen uiteindelijk de keuze uit een EV-platform met het keurmerk van Japanse kwaliteit, dat tegelijkertijd kan concurreren met de nieuwe technologische ontwikkelingen die in China in opkomst zijn \u2013 nog steeds de belangrijkste EV-markt ter wereld.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Foxconn, the world\u2019s largest electronics contract manufacturer, is strengthening its foothold in the automotive industry.
