The Pentium brand was founded on May 18, 2006. it mainly produces SUV and car models, including Pentium B70, Pentium T77, Pentium T55, Pentium T33, Pentium T99, Pentium T99 and Pentium B70S. In 2018, FAW Pentium released a new brand strategy and released the first model of the "T" series, the T77. The new internal and external design of this model was refreshing to the outside world, and it was sought after by the market at the initial stage of listing. Sales, which were supposed to easily exceed 10,000, then fell all the way. Data show that FAW Pentium accumulated sales of 120500 vehicles in 2019, an increase of 33% over the same period last year, but not for long. In the following years, FAW Pentium sales continued to decline, and FAW Pentium set an annual sales target of 200000 vehicles in 2020. the cumulative sales for that year was only 80100, a far cry from the target.
In May 2021, FAW Pentium released a new brand strategy and created a new Pentium brand logo-the new "window of the World" brand LOGO. Although "changing the logo" to some extent means breaking the past, the new brand image can not improve its sales either. Data show that FAW Pentium's cumulative sales are only 57773 in 2021, 85256 in 2023 and 19923 in January-March this year. FAW Pentium still has a long way to go in the future.
