It was selling like crazy. The entire New York market was selling like crazy.
How could a heavy-duty motorcycle with such a cool appearance not only reach a speed of 480 km/h, but it could also crush the entire race as soon as it appeared. How could it not attract attention?
To put it bluntly, when the United States Captain appeared, all the motorcycles, including the Harley, were overshadowed.
More importantly, this kind of motorcycle was not sold for $99999 or $49999. It was not even priced at $9999. The most expensive one was not even $5000. It was simply illogical if one did not buy it.
Therefore, after the United States Captain announced the sale, the first batch of 10000 United States Captains was sold out in one day. This made many riders from other cities in the United States who heard the news regretful.
It was said that the price of a United States Captain in the hands of scalpers had risen to 10000 USD. However, there was still a demand but no supply, because there were too few people willing to buy it from scalpers. How could the riders who had snatched the United States Captain be willing to sell such a cool motorcycle?
The only bad thing was that it was said that the nights in New York City had become crazier. Not only were there some racers crazily racing, but even motorcycles had joined the ranks of racing. Moreover, the speed of 480 km/h was beyond the reach of many professional racers. They could only eat the dust behind a motorcycle.
This made many racers eager to get their hands on the United States Captain. After all, what they pursued was speed. As long as they were fast enough, everything else was not a problem.
Of course, it was not that there were no accidents. For example, there was a rider who actually used dual shield mode to race. As a result, an accident happened during a chase.
Fortunately, he did not die, only a dozen broken ribs. It was said that when this guy woke up in the ICU, the first thing he said was, "Too good, 480 km/h is too damn good!"
In the new issue of Marvel Comics that was published a few days later, the United States Captain appeared on his brand-new tank and crushed everyone with speed.
According to the setting of the comic, this was an invincible mount created by the captain of the United States after he explored an Eastern ruin called the Primeval Age. From there, he obtained a super technology called the Artifact.
Not only was the speed of this motorcycle extremely fast, but its attack power was also invincible. Nothing could withstand the impact of this motorcycle, especially when the captain of the United States turned on the dual shield mode. He even flew into the air and caught up with the spaceship of the Guardian of the Galaxy. Then, with a direct charge, he rammed their spaceship down and turned it into pieces on the ground. It was simply too cool.
Because of this, the United States Captain naturally rose to fame. Even the sales of Marvel Magazine increased by a small margin.
When the second batch of 20,000 United States Captains arrived, they were sold out even faster than before. In less than a morning, they were all sold out. These sales assistants did not need any recommendations at all. They only needed to help customers sign the purchase contract and agreement mechanically.
The content of this contract was also very strict. In addition to the normal three guarantees, the main thing was to make a statement.
That was, before the purchase, the sales assistants had repeatedly warned the buyer that the racing mode and the super mode were strictly prohibited under any circumstances. The sellers and manufacturers were against the user's use of the mode.
If the user forcibly used the mode and caused any accidents or problems, BYD would have nothing to do with it, and BYD would not take any responsibility.
Anyway, these terms completely removed BYD's responsibility. No matter what happened in the future, unless it was a quality problem, BYD would have nothing to do with it.
After all, I have repeatedly told you that you can't use the latter two modes. It was you who didn't listen to my advice. I can't do anything about it.
And starting from the second batch of racing cars, BYD paid more attention to the protection of the safety field. For example, the cheapest warrior version did not have the dual shield mode function.
Although the later versions of the Hero and Avenger had the two modes, they were in a sealed state. Even if the user bought them, they could not activate them. Only with the authorization of the racing association and after confirming that the user was a racer, could they find BYD's official website to activate the two modes.
That's right. The single shield mode and the dual shield mode were the abbreviations for the racing mode and the super mode.
The racing mode and the super mode were too common. They were not as simple and easy to understand as the single shield mode and the dual shield mode. They were full of mystery.
At first, when the customers saw that BYD had sealed the two modes, they were very dissatisfied. Some people even wanted to return the cars.
But soon, some people appeared in the market. They claimed that they had the technology to break the seal.
For a mere $100, they could break the restrictions on the single shield mode and the dual shield mode in the Hero and the Avenger. They did not need any authorization from the racing association. Ordinary players could use the two modes directly.
At first, the sellers were skeptical. But when those people took some tools and operated the main control panel, they actually managed to unlock the single shield mode and the dual shield mode. After that, the sales of the United States Captain became popular again.
Unfortunately, BYD's efforts to protect the safety of the customers were in vain!
It was like a dog biting Lu Dongbin. In Wang Chuanfu's dream, he wanted to cry for the safety of the United States people.
In Wang Chuanfu's dream, the owners of the major motorcycle companies in the United States were also in pain. Especially the Harley motorcycle owners, they felt a chill down their spine!
In fact, the motorcycle market in the United States was not big. After all, motorcycles were not considered an excellent transportation tool in developed countries. After all, cars were many times more practical than motorcycles.
If the price of motorcycles was cheap, it would be fine. But the problem was that most of the motorcycle brands were now selling at the same price as cars … These motorcycle brands could not be blamed for being too greedy. It was because there were too few motorcycle customers. As a result, their cost could not be reduced. Since the cost could not be reduced, they could only raise the unit price.
This basically formed a bad cycle. In the end, motorcycles could only be limited to their own market. Other than motorcycle enthusiasts and some policemen, ordinary people basically did not have the desire to buy motorcycles.
This caused the motorcycle market to be so small. The annual sales total was less than one million. All the motorcycle manufacturers in the United States could only divide the market of one million. This market had long been saturated and did not allow outsiders to enter.
In the end, not only did outsiders come, but they were also aggressive. Although only 30,000 units were sold, this already accounted for 3% of the annual market.
And this was because of the production capacity limit. If the United States Captain motorcycle could be supplied without limit, wouldn't it be able to sweep away half of the market in an instant?
Do you think the traditional motorcycle brands in the United States are so anxious that their pants are about to fall off?
