The intelligent and new energy vehicle revolution is sweeping across the globe, and Chinese automotive brands are accelerating their international expansion at an unprecedented pace.
In September 2025, Chinese automotive brands recorded a remarkable 235% year-over-year surge in UK sales, with 40,729 units sold—accounting for nearly one-third of total sales in the first three quarters. Three models from Chery, BYD, and MG successfully entered the top ten market rankings (Source: Xinhua News Agency Automotive).
The continuous expansion of global market share represents not only a breakthrough in sales volume for China's automotive industry but also drives profound transformation in service delivery systems.
The competitive focus has shifted from "manufacturing quality vehicles" to "delivering exceptional customer service." Full lifecycle customer experience management has become the core competitive advantage for automotive enterprises in the global marketplace.
As international expansion accelerates, a critical question confronts all automotive manufacturers: How can intelligent technologies enable more efficient contact center operations and deliver superior customer experiences?
1 Escalating Service Demand:
New CX Chanllenges in the Intelligent Era
With exponential growth in overseas sales, customer service demand is scaling rapidly—along with rising expectations.
Consider a UK customer who purchases a Chinese electric vehicle. While the ownership experience may begin positively, challenges arise when service is needed—high repair costs, limited parts availability, or difficulty finding service centers. This “easy to buy, hard to maintain” gap is becoming a common pain point.
According to China Customs data, the average export price of Chinese vehicles has exceeded $20,000 in the first three quarters—up more than 50% over five years. In the EV segment, Chinese brands are increasingly positioned in the premium European market.
Today’s customers expect real-time, omnichannel, and personalized support across every touchpoint—vehicle purchase, maintenance, roadside assistance, and remote diagnostics—via in-car systems, mobile apps, messaging platforms, or voice.
However, traditional contact centers are struggling to keep up:
Peak demand overload: Product launches and recalls drive ticket spikes, overwhelming agents and increasing wait times
Fragmented channels: Disconnected systems prevent a unified customer view, forcing customers to repeat information
Delayed after-sales support: Limited transparency into repair status and parts availability leads to poor experience
Limited global scalability: Legacy systems are costly and slow to deploy across regions
To truly achieve "customer-centric" intelligent service delivery, automotive enterprises urgently require an intelligent, flexible contact center infrastructure with global collaboration capabilities.
2 Amazon Connect: Empowering Automotive Enterprises to Build Intelligent Contact Centers
With deep expertise in customer experience innovation, Bricom integrates Amazon Connect with Zendesk to deliver a lifecycle-based intelligent customer service solution tailored for the automotive industry.
Leading Chinese automotive enterprises with global operations have already completed comprehensive contact center upgrades through this solution, successfully transitioning from traditional call centers to intelligent omnichannel contact centers.
1. Omnichannel Centralized Management
For enterprises, the core pain point of multichannel service management is "fragmentation"; for customers, the primary frustration is "repetitive communication."
Bricom integrates voice, chat, email, and other communication channels through a unified interface, enabling agents to efficiently handle customer requests on a single platform, ensuring every interaction is logged, tracked, and resolved.
Leveraging Amazon Connect's global voice network, enterprises can rapidly provision telephone numbers across international regions on demand, eliminating complex telecommunications deployment and significantly accelerating international contact center infrastructure development.
2. Deep Adaptation to Core Scenarios
The automotive service chain is complex and extensive, spanning vehicle selection, test drives, after-sales maintenance, and roadside assistance—each stage generating substantial inquiries and service requests.
Bricom delivers Amazon Connect-based intelligent customer service solutions precisely adapted to automotive industry characteristics, addressing enterprise service efficiency challenges while enhancing customer convenience:
Intelligent Sales Consultation:
AI virtual assistants provide 24/7 response, delivering personalized recommendations based on customer profiles to improve sales conversion.
After-Sales Service Optimization:
Automated repair progress notifications and real-time parts inventory queries significantly reduce service cycle times.
Emergency Roadside Assistance:
Location-based intelligent routing with multilingual support accommodates cross-border travel, enabling instant dispatch.
Connected Vehicle Services:
Integration of intelligent cockpit guidance, charging station reservations, and other features addresses core pain points for new energy vehicle users.
3. Global Collaboration and Unified Data
For multinational automotive enterprises, cross-platform and cross-regional contact center operations often encounter data fragmentation challenges.
Bricom supports integration with Amazon DynamoDB's highly available distributed database, enabling cross-regional information synchronization and real-time hot backup, ensuring business continuity and consistency across global operations—maintaining stable performance even across service networks spanning over 170 countries and regions.
Simultaneously, leveraging Amazon Lambda serverless architecture, the system deeply integrates with ticketing systems, CRM platforms, and internal knowledge bases, automatically converting customer inquiries into trackable service tickets and intelligently routing them to appropriate regional or technical support teams, forming an efficient global service network.
