Study On The Technology Innovation For Automobile Industry Of China Based On AHP

China has kept the world record of the number of car sales for4years at the end of2012. The value of automotive industry output is5trillion RMB, and China holds25%ofthis. All facts indicate that car industry in China is rapidly blooming, and is becoming thefundamental aspect of Chinese economy. Furthermore, car industry is more and moreimportant in strategic status of economy developing in China. In the industrial chain ofthe national economy, automobile industry needs a lot of auxiliary industry. So carindustry has been a comprehensive industry chain which closely combined with otherperipheral industry. In developed countries, the auto industry plays a leading role in thedevelopment of the economic. From the whole production performance it can be seen thatthe car industry accounted for a large proportion. In addition, the rapid development ofautomobile industry drives the development of other parts supply. To a certain extent, thecar industry is an assembly industry. Because of a used car parts, the car maker link to alot of accessories suppliers, which makes the related industry and automobile industryformed a close relationship. In terms of technology, automotive industry can be said to bea highly technology-intensive industry, which gathered a large number of newtechnologies and processes. Along with the other related technology unceasingenhancement, the automobile industry also is constantly upgrading. Using thesetechnologies can create many new materials and equipments, so it quickens thedevelopment of automobile industry. Therefore, auto industry has a direct impact on acountry’s comprehensive strength and determines the rapid development of nationaleconomy. It can also get a show in the progress of science and technology. So all thecountries in the world pay attention to the development of the auto industry as a majoreconomic pillar. Developed countries even expand its automobile industry to all over theworld, driving the all-round development of the domestic economy and the rapidupgrading of the science and technology. However, comparing with developed countries, the technological innovation ability of car industry in China falls behind, and this problemis deteriorating.This article concentrates on possibilities that China can improve its technologicalinnovation ability. Firstly, it introduces the theory of technological innovation. Then itwill recall the history of the developing of China’s car industry. By using the s AnalyticHierarchy Process and choosing the proper indexes of automotive technologicalinnovation ability, we build the analytic model. Secondly, it compares two companies,which are Toyota Motor from Japan and Great Wall Motor from China, using the analyticmodel, and evaluates the results. Finally, by assessing the result, I suggest my opinions onadvancing the automotive technological innovation ability of Chinese car companies ingovernment policy, enterprise strategy, personnel training and R&D input.
