奔驰CEO称在中国车要大得惊人!难道造车的尽头只能“以大为优”?

奔驰CEO康林松强调中国市场对大尺寸车型的偏好,引发对车辆尺寸膨胀、能耗成本及技术导向的行业探讨。

Quick Look

奔驰CEO康林松指出中国消费者对大尺寸汽车的强烈需求。文章探讨了国内乘用车尺寸膨胀的现状、带来的能耗与道路损耗问题,并指出新规下车企应转向技术创新而非单纯追求车身尺寸。

Why It Matters

2026年1月1日实施的《电动汽车能量消耗量限值第1部分:乘用车》将电耗标准与整备质量挂钩。国内乘用车市场近年来呈现明显的车身尺寸大型化趋势。

“在中国,车要大,非常大,大得惊人。”奔驰CEO康林松表示。据德国《汽车周刊》11日晚间报道,他宣布奔驰在中国的产品规划必须完全围绕中国消费者的喜好展开。

他警告,如果在车身尺寸、空间设计和数字智能化方面跟不上竞争对手,“就会被淘汰出局”。

在他口中三大竞争赛道里,“大”最先戳中行业敏感点。

国内乘用车持续“膨胀”是客观事实。数据显示,2017至2022年,国内乘用车平均车长增加超130毫米,2020至2023年主流车型车宽普遍增加50至70毫米,众多家用SUV车宽突破两米。

进入2026年,SUV市场份额持续走高,车企纷纷加码大尺寸车型。

康林松的行业观察并非空穴来风,大空间需求具备扎实的现实基础。国内家庭结构、出行习惯发生变化,多子女家庭、三代同堂结伴出行、节假日长途自驾、露营载物等场景越来越普遍。今天很多用户买车,看重驾乘舒展感、行李装载余量,这是“大车”畅销的核心原因。

只是当空间优势被不断放大,尺寸逐渐异化为重要的营销标签,“唯尺寸论”的风气也随之滋生。

可是大车的“账单”,远不止消费者支付的购车款。

首先是日常使用里显而易见的不便。车位局促时车门难以全开,窄路会车进退维谷;更大的转弯半径,也推高了剐蹭事故概率。城市道路、停车基建的规划基准,仍成型于中小型车普及的年代,车辆体型的扩张,已经走在了城市配套前面。

潜藏的代价更为突出。尺寸放大往往伴随车重上涨,加宽加长的车身、容量更高的电池,都会转化为整车自重。数据显示,一台3吨重的纯电SUV,百公里电耗普遍超过20度;同时车重越高,制动距离越长,碰撞时的冲击动能也更强。

在2026世界互联网大会·乌镇咖荟·汽车夜话论坛上,蔚来创始人、董事长、CEO李斌再度提及道路工程领域的“四次方法则”——1.2倍的重量,对马路的破坏就是2.07倍。

车辆盲目放大增重,带来能耗、道路损耗等一系列公共成本。但这并不意味着要否定消费者对大空间的合理需求,而是需要规则来平衡外部影响。

规则回答得也很巧妙。2026年1月1日,《电动汽车能量消耗量限值第1部分:乘用车》(GB 36980.1—2025)正式实施,该新规首次将车辆电耗标准与整备质量深度挂钩,整体加严行业电耗要求,对2710公斤以上的超重车型设置了严苛的电耗门槛。

新规没有一刀切限制尺寸,而是撤掉了盲目做大的“兜底保护”,想要继续做大体量,就得靠硬技术消化能耗压力。这也指明产业发展方向,好车的标尺从来不是车身大小,而是技术能力。

事实上,高强度钢、轻量化合金、一体化压铸、高能量密度电池,还有高效的座舱布局,都能在不盲目放大车体的前提下,提升空间利用率、控制大小重量。所以轻量化不是减配,精细化设计的“得房率”“体验感”,更考验车企内功。

说到底,汽车的核心属性还是交通工具。车企应当跳出“以大为优”的思维,深耕驾控、空间、安全与低碳技术,在合理尺寸内挖掘产品价值。

而国内车企发展,也并没有完全陷入尺寸竞赛。阿维塔坚持原创设计路线;比亚迪追求“用技术创新满足人们对美好生活的向往,助力为地球降温1℃”;赛力斯以高安全、高可靠、高性能、高品质、高价值的“五高”标准立身……这些答案,都没有把“大”当作核心卖点。

奔驰从中国车市捕捉到的“大车风潮”,并不是行业标准答案。中国从汽车大国迈向汽车强国,比拼的从来不是谁的车身更长更宽,而是安全、智能、低碳背后扎扎实实的技术含金量。车企只有抛开“以大为优”的单一视角,才能真正看清产业发展的长久出路。
