Infinitely close to EV! Detailed explanation of Honda i-MMD plug-in hybrid

   [car home Technology] Honda has been deeply involved in the field of automobile hybrid for a long time. Honda began to promote hybrid cars in 1999, and now it has accumulated technology for 20 years. In the past two decades, in order to meet the changes in the market and the diversified choices of customers, Honda’s hybrid system has spread to various important models, from the people-friendly Fit to the high-end NSX, and this year it has also expanded to MPV models (|), Ailishen), and the product selectivity has become more diverse. In addition, the i-MMD plug-in hybrid system based on the overall upgrade of Honda’s i-MMD hybrid system will also be officially unveiled in the China market next year. According to the introduction of engineers from Honda Institute of Technology, this plug-in hybrid system (PHEV) based on i-MMD basically realizes pure electrification in daily driving, which can be called a brand-new plug-in hybrid system infinitely close to EV.

  Before the 11th National Day, I came to Guangzhou specially and had a detailed exchange with engineers from Honda Institute of Technology who came from Japan. This article will introduce this i-MMD plug-in hybrid system in detail. If you have any questions, you are welcome to discuss it in the message area.

◆ Preface: Starting from the promotion history of Honda hybrid cars.

  In order to let everyone know better about Honda’s newly released i-MMD plug-in hybrid system, I think it is necessary to briefly explain Honda’s promotion in the field of hybrid vehicles, so as to have a more comprehensive understanding of new technologies in the future.

  Generally speaking, IMA design is very clever, and at the same time, because the motor has low power and small volume, it can be well integrated in the engine compartment, so the biggest feature of this mechanism is simple structural design, light weight and compact layout.

Home of the car

  The Civic Hybrid model based on the seventh generation Civic (overseas version) has also entered the domestic market, and it is also the second hybrid model launched by Honda after INSIGHT. Civic Hybrid is also equipped with IMA hybrid system with engine as the main power and motor as the auxiliary power.

  In IMA system, the position of motor is very low, which is similar to the function of 48V BSG motor from the present point of view. The difference is that this system switches the working mode instead of the power distribution mode. To put it simply, Honda IMA hybrid system has five working modes, in which the engine and motor work together in the initial acceleration stage, rapid acceleration and high-speed driving stage, which can improve the dynamic performance of the vehicle. When the vehicle runs at a low speed, the engine cylinder is closed, and the vehicle can be driven by full electric power, but the speed cannot be higher than about 40 km/h. When the vehicle is completely driven by the engine in the ordinary acceleration stage, the motor is out of work and charged with the kinetic energy of the engine.

  A big problem with this system is the above-mentioned engine off and full electric drive condition. When the engine is turned off here, it actually turns off the oil supply system and the intake and exhaust. At this time, the motor is connected with the crankshaft, and the motor actually drives the crankshaft to rotate and output power. At this time, more energy will be consumed, and the mileage of pure electric driving is very low.

  The appearance of IMA marks that Honda has officially begun to exert its strength in the hybrid field, and it is also the starting point for Honda. In addition, many R&D concepts of this system, including integration and miniaturization, have had a far-reaching impact on the later iMMD system. Even the i-MMD plug-in system released this time can still see some R&D concepts in the IMA era.

◆ Fundamentally: Honda’s mixed "spiritual leader"

  With the innovation of technology and the change of market, Honda is obviously aware of the limitations of IMA. At the same time, compared with Toyota’s THS, Honda’s IMA is really not cheap. A more efficient and more dynamic hybrid system is coming out. This is Honda i-MMD system. This system appeared around 2010, and the structure changed from single motor to double motor. The layout is still compact and combined with the engine and installed in the engine compartment. In fact, we have introduced and tested Honda’s i-MMD system in detail before. In this article, we only make a simple review, which will help you to understand the plug-in hybrid system of i-MMD more clearly (plug-in hybrid is essentially an upgrade of i-MMD system), and also better understand the working principle of i-MMD plug-in hybrid system.

  I-MMD system can be divided into two parts according to the layout structure: one is located in the engine compartment, and the other is located in the rear of the car (between the trunk and the rear axle). The engine compartment is mainly the power system and transmission system of i-MMD system. The trunk is a power battery (lithium ion) device.

Home of the car

  In the world of unplugged hybrid systems, the logic of the i-MMD system is very unique. If Toyota relies on engines and motors to mix in different proportions, then the i-MMD system is more like switching by different driving modes.

Home of the car

  It can be seen that EV mode is driven by electric motor, and the engine of i-MMD system can not work at all in pure electric mode because of the direct clutch of engine and the addition of higher power motor, thus avoiding the extra loss of power in IMA before. However, even with the i-MMD system, the mileage in pure electric mode is very short. For example, the battery of the 2016 hybrid Accord is only 1.3kWh, and we tested pure electric driving at 30km/h (without air conditioning), which is only 1.77km. (Test article: Satisfy your curiosity. Deep technical interpretation of Hybrid Accord)

  The hybrid mode is the standard series mode, which is a bit like the feeling of extended range. The engine does not participate in direct wheel drive, but drives the generator to generate current, which drives the motor to work together with the current in the battery, and finally drives the vehicle forward.

  Only when cruising at high speed will the engine directly drive the wheels, at this time, the engine can keep in the optimal speed range and achieve a good fuel consumption performance.

Home of the car

  In Honda i-MMD system, the motor plays a more important role, so the maximum power or torque of the motor is better. In daily use, it is more inclined to the direct output of the motor, and the engine is somewhat similar to the extended range.

  Toyota’s THS is more inclined to engine-driven vehicles, and the motor is more auxiliary, such as assisting when accelerating, assisting when starting, etc. These assists are more to keep the engine in an economical speed range, thus improving fuel economy.  

How to choose the awning? Talk about the difference between ordinary awning and EC light-sensing awning.

In recent years, new energy vehicles have been in a blowout trend. In order to highlight product characteristics and seize market share, various car companies are constantly innovating and creating new selling points and new tricks. Recently, the most popular one is the panoramic awning. After searching on the Internet, there are quite a few new energy vehicles with awning. But you know, although the names are all called "awning", there are still great differences.

EC light-sensitive canopy, the "king" of canopy with full sense of science and technology.

ZEEKR 001 provides an optional EC light-sensitive canopy. Speaking of this EC light-sensitive canopy, it has a lot to offer. In the past, this technology was mainly used in aviation and construction fields, and Boeing 787 passenger plane portholes used this technology. At present, ZEEKR 001 uses the latest generation of EC solid electrochromic glass technology. Simply put, the EC light-sensitive canopy is a kind of dimming glass made of EC material, which can automatically sense the intensity of ambient light to change colors, thus achieving the functions of shading, heat insulation and privacy protection. Of course, users can also adjust at will through the central control of the big screen and voice commands. ZEEKR 001′ s EC light-sensing canopy can last for 3-5 days even after power failure.

So what is the principle of EC light-sensing canopy that it can be "color-adjusted"? In fact, under the action of voltage, some chemical changes have taken place in the chemical elements in the glass material of EC light-sensitive canopy. In this process, the light transmittance, reflectivity and absorption rate of EC light-sensing canopy will change.

(Image data comes from third-party media)

There are also some models on the market that use color-changing canopy, but the material is different from the light-sensing canopy of ZEEKR 001. Especially in the aspect of working voltage, the working voltage of ZEEKR 001 is ≤1.5V, which is the same as that of the dry battery used in our air-conditioning TV remote controller. The working voltage of polymer dispersed liquid crystal material canopy is 45V, and some even reach hundreds of volts, which is very different. Therefore, ZEEKR 001′ s EC light-sensing canopy is also more advantageous in terms of safety.

Heat insulation, sun protection, sun protection, EC light-sensitive canopy has many advantages.

In front of us, we briefly introduced the working principle and safety advantages of ZEEKR 001′ s EC light-sensing canopy. Besides being color-changeable, it looks more scientific and grade-oriented. What other advantages does it have? ZEEKR 001 is equipped with EC light-sensing canopy, which is transparent under normal conditions. When it becomes sky blue, the UV blocking rate of this EC light-sensitive canopy can reach 99.9%, the SPF can reach 50, and the protection level can reach PA+++++. It can almost be understood as the effect of sunshade+sunscreen.

Simple and reliable, ZEEKR 001 ordinary canopy gives you the purest protection.

Earlier, we talked a lot about the EC light-sensing canopy, and some friends may have said it. EC light canopy is really good, but we think ordinary canopy is enough. So what will ZEEKR 001′ s ordinary canopy do?

(Source: New Travel)

During the test drive of Qiandao Lake, some media measured the thermal insulation capacity of ZEEKR 001 and compared it with the test data of Tucki P7 and Tesla Model 3. When ZEEKR 001 was tested, the outdoor temperature was 35℃, and the roof temperature of ZEEKR 001 reached 48.8℃ after exposure. Comparing the test data of Tucki P7 and Tesla Model 3, ZEEKR 001′ s ordinary canopy can be said to be excellent in heat insulation, and there is no feeling of "scalding" like Tesla. Therefore, friends who want to choose ZEEKR 001 ordinary canopy can also choose with confidence.

Pursuing the ultimate experience, choose EC light-sensing canopy, and it is enough to use ordinary canopy every day.

After reading this article, I believe everyone has their own answers about how to choose the type of awning. In my opinion, in fact, which awning to choose depends entirely on your own needs, and users who pursue the ultimate experience are of course more suitable for EC light-sensing awning. After all, it has a cool effect and looks very classy and scientific. If you don’t have too much demand for the awning and think that the ordinary awning is enough, then choose the ordinary awning.

However, finally, I would like to remind my friends who like the EC light-sensitive awning, and suggest that YOU directly choose the EC light-sensitive awning or directly set the YOU version of ZEEKR 001 when booking a car.

From star to philanthropist Jet Li: Everything starts with "one"


  Chinanews. com, March 20 th, "One flower, one world, one leaf and one bodhi". "Every person+every month+every 1 yuan = one big family", Jet Li advocates the global public welfare concept of "One Foundation, One Family". No matter how high or low the public welfare is, a dollar can also create a world of truth, goodness and beauty. Everything of philanthropist Jet Li begins with "one".


  Won the "2008 Chinese Award for Influencing the World", and Jet Li is a Chinese philanthropist. "I am very happy to get this award. Everyone has many different identities in society. Facing different people and on different occasions, their identities are different. Acting is my profession, and charity is my lifelong career. When I know that I won the prize because of my efforts in the field of public affairs, I feel the preciousness of this award even more. "


  From martial artist to Chinese philanthropist


  In December 2008, Jet Li appeared on the cover of Time magazine. This time, Jet Li’s identity has changed from martial artist and movie star to philanthropist.


  This is the second time that he has appeared on the cover of Time. Previously, in 2002, Jet Li, Tony Leung Chiu Wai, Maggie Cheung, Zhang Ziyi and others starred in Zhang Yimou’s martial arts blockbuster Hero and appeared on the cover of the magazine.


  Putting the photo of this action star on the last cover in 2008, Time magazine used "Liberation of Jet Li" as the title, telling how Jet Li, as a kung fu superstar, discovered that "the real meaning of life lies in helping others".


  In 2008, Jet Li announced that he would take a year off to concentrate on charity. The change from an action star to a philanthropist seems sudden. "In fact, there was no deliberate plan at first. Just in the process of doing things, I found that there are too many people who need help, too many things to do, and too little time. The One Foundation, which has just started, has many things that need to be concentrated and focused. "


  When his "The Mummy Returns 3" was promoted in Chinese mainland, many film reporters expressed that they could not stand Jet Li. Putting aside the topic of movies and talking about charity on every occasion, film reporters can’t make a difference.


  Preaching charity and collecting money everywhere, Jet Li said that he had become the biggest beggar in the world.


  Let the world know about Chinese people, and everything starts with "one"


  Playing movies is an expert, but being a charity begins with "one"-one person and one passion. After contacting with various people and understanding and demonstrating the feasibility of the fund, Jet Li established the One Foundation in 2007. Of course, the main purpose of the fund is charity. In Jet Li’s words, it is "everyone donates 1 yuan a day, connects into a big family and helps more people".


  It has been estimated that Jet Li will lose no less than 100 million yuan in film for one year. Not long ago, the Financial Management Report of One Foundation in 2008 showed that during this year, he and One Foundation raised a total of 131,305,491 yuan in charitable donations.


  Unlike many philanthropists who donate directly, Jet Li advocates a brand-new way of thinking that "everyone can do public welfare". "Everyone can do their part for charity. This participation is not about how much money you have or how successful you are. The One Foundation hopes that charity will become a habit and a way of life. "


  It was the 5.12 earthquake that made the reputation of One Foundation resound throughout China and abroad. After the earthquake, One Foundation quickly raised $13.7 million to donate to the victims of the Sichuan earthquake. At the most tense stage of earthquake relief, Jet Li’s personal visit to the disaster area with relief materials became one of the most eye-catching news at that time.


  Having worked hard overseas for many years, Jet Li is keenly aware that the world doesn’t understand the Chinese. "China people have always emphasized mutual aid, great love and tolerance, and I hope to export this value and the image of Chinese with this value to the world.".


  Kung Fu Emperor’s Global Charity Dream


  Not only should he advocate a brand-new concept of charity, but Jet Li also wants to bring a revolution to charity in China, and he hopes that charity itself will generate economic value.


  He cooperated with Phoenix TV "miss chinese cosmos pageant", top luxury brands and entertainment giants. One Foundation is no longer just a monk who is begging for alms, but also wants to be a matchmaker. Promote marriage and form synergy between enterprises and various NGOs. In Jet Li’s words, "Open up the industrial chain" with the One Foundation as the leading factor. And the future is not limited to China, but the Middle East, Africa and other regions are all under the concern of the One Foundation.


  At the end of 2008, One Foundation planned and organized the first China Global Charity Forum, which provided an unprecedented and open communication channel and resource integration platform for the government, enterprises, NGOs, media and volunteers.


  Jet Li hopes that the Global Charity Forum can be held year after year, "introducing the advanced international charity experience, and introducing our good organizations in China to connect with the international community. I hope that through such activities, China’s charity concept can be exported to the world. "


  A great man is for the country and the people. In the screen world, Jet Li has successfully performed countless chivalrous men who draw swords to help each other; In the real world, he is also chivalrous and tender-hearted. Jet Li and the One Foundation have turned charity from a luxury into a necessity for ordinary people.

Deep blue car has succeeded again, and its appearance is more exquisite.

What I bring to you today is that it has many highlights. Let’s look down with Xiaobian.

First of all, from the appearance, the whole front face of the dark blue L07 looks very round and lovely, and looks very sporty. Combined with the elegant headlights, the visual effect coincides with the positioning of the whole vehicle. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, automatic opening and closing, adaptive far and near light, delayed closing and so on. Coming to the side of the car body, the size of the car body is 4875MM*1890MM*1480MM, and the car adopts eye-catching lines. The car body presents a personalized design style, and with large-sized thick-walled tires, it gives people a very soft feeling. In the design of the rear end, the rear end looks very simple, the taillights look very stable and cool.

Sitting in the car, the interior adopts a soft design, and the overall visual effect is very distinctive. The steering wheel of the car is very sharp, equipped with the functions of manual up and down+front and back adjustment, which gives people an impulse to control it. From the central control point of view, with the 15.6-inch touch-sensitive LCD central control screen, the interior style is impressive, and the overall design of the central control is remarkable. The dashboard and the seat are equally eye-catching, the dashboard design is remarkable, and the trendy design elements make people remember it at a glance. The car uses leather seats, which are wrapped in place and have good overall comfort.

The car is equipped with car networking, driving mode selection, Bluetooth key, NFC/RFID key, traction control (ASR/TCS, etc.), CarPlay support, HUAWEI HiCar support and other configurations, which is rich in functions and greatly improves its convenience.

After reading the above description, Xiaobian will make a summary. The car introduced today is not only eye-catching in space, but also has reached the mainstream level in various configurations, and there is nothing to be picky about driving experience and space experience.

Audi finally showed its trump card, accelerating 3.8 kilometers.

When our career is stable and our income is gradually "well-off", our originally poor life has also changed a lot, and the car we once yearned for is no longer out of reach. I don’t know if you know anything about what is introduced today. So whether this car is a mule or a horse, let’s take a look at its actual performance.

Let’s take a look at the appearance of the Audi RS Q8. The front face of the Audi RS Q8 adopts a very capable design and looks very sporty. With the headlights, the whole looks tough. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, automatic opening and closing, adaptive far and near light, automatic steering, delayed closing, rain and fog mode and so on. Coming to the car side, the car body size is 5012MM*2000MM*1696MM. The car adopts simple lines, and the car side looks very soft. With large-sized thick-walled tires, the overall visual effect is very full. In terms of the rear end, the overall shape of the rear end echoes the front end, and the taillights present a steady design style. Coupled with the unique exhaust pipe, the shape is more rounded and lovely.

Sitting in the car, the interior design of Audi RS Q8 looks dignified and the visual effect is quite unique. The steering wheel of the car is very in line with the interior style, using Alcantara/ suede material, giving people an impulse to control it. Take a look at the central control, which is decorated with a 10.1-inch central control screen, which makes the interior design quite layered and the overall design of the central control is remarkable. The dashboard and seats give people a good feeling, too. Let’s take a look. The dashboard design is remarkable and looks elegant. The car uses leather seats, equipped with functions such as electric adjustment with memory in the auxiliary seat, electric adjustment with memory in the seat, and seat proportion falling down, which improves the riding experience of drivers and passengers.

It’s a pity that Audi RS Q8 can put two luggage bags in the trunk, and the rear seats can’t be laid down. In addition, the car is equipped with night vision system, fatigue reminder, anti-lock braking system (ABS), LED daytime running lights, brake assist (EBA/BAS, etc.) main driving airbag, rear window sunshade, co-pilot airbag, side airbag curtain, front side airbag and other safety configurations.

Many people buy SUVs because of their stronger passability. The car is practical and fully equipped, and it is a good helper for home travel. As long as you like it, go ahead and buy it.

A new generation of DM+ high-level intelligent driving BYD’s enlargement in 2024

  [car home Information] A few days ago, Dong Yuhui of New Oriental "unexpectedly" became popular, and he himself summed up the popularity as: "Luck will always favor those who are always ready." He thanked himself for reading a lot of books in college to reserve enough knowledge, which he could share in the live broadcast and gain everyone’s recognition. BYD seems to be highly consistent with Dong Yuhui’s popularity. The change from "ugly duckling" to "golden phoenix" is really a textbook-style existence in the automobile circle. BYD’s success is not entirely due to luck, but behind it is BYD people’s far-sighted strategic vision and hard work.

● Looking back in 2023

  In 2021, BYD’s annual sales volume was only 730,000 units, while in 2022 and 2023, BYD’s sales volume increased by leaps and bounds, reaching 1.86 million units and 3.02 million units respectively. What is the concept of 3.02 million units? According to the data of the Association, in 2023, the wholesale sales volume of new energy passenger cars in China was 8.88 million units, which means that BYD’s new energy vehicle sales accounted for 34% of the national new energy vehicle sales, more than 1/3. If fuel vehicles are included, BYD’s sales account for 14% of the entire passenger car market, which is about 1/7, according to the annual passenger car sales of 21.62 million units estimated by the Federation.

  How fast has BYD made progress? Comparing the "Juan Wang" car companies horizontally, FAW-Volkswagen has always been one of the best car companies in China, and the sales volume of FAW-Volkswagen was basically the same from 2021 to 2023. Tesla has flourished in the field of new energy vehicles in recent three years, and its fist product Model Y has been the first in passenger car sales in the past six months, and Tesla’s progress is also quite obvious. But let’s compare BYD’s progress speed, which is simply a leap-forward change.

Home of the car

  Among the top ten models sold in the past six months, BYD has five seats, namely Qin PLUS, Song PLUS, Seagull, Yuan PLUS and Dolphin. From the product price point of view, BYD’s products with a price of less than 300,000 yuan are more popular, including Han and Tang whose price exceeds 200,000 yuan.

"Top five automobile sales in the past six months"

  As we said at the beginning, BYD’s popularity is not just luck. Behind BYD’s success today is BYD’s bet on new energy in the past 20 years. When BYD exhibited its first electric car ET at the Beijing Auto Show in 2004, it was ridiculed and laughed at by many people. Today, 20 years later, if any car company does not have a new energy vehicle, it may really be laughed at.

In 2004BYD exhibited the first electric car ET at Beijing Auto Show.

  In addition, the word technology has been engraved in BYD’s bones, which makes BYD go faster in 2023. In 2023, BYD successively introduced new technologies such as Yunqi, Yifangfang (which can turn around in the same place), DMO super hybrid off-road platform, emergency floating ability, etc., which also made BYD have a new breakthrough in high-end brand layout in 2023. Looking forward to U8 and equation Leopard Leopard 5, it will be introduced to the market this year.

"BYD Cloud"

  The launch of high-end models stems from the technical strength behind them. Wang Chuanfu once said, "High-end brands should rely on design and technology instead of stacking configuration. This is an opportunity for China brands." Li Yunfei, general manager of BYD’s brand and public relations department, once revealed that "BYD’s R&D expenses are much higher than its net profit. For example, from January to September this year, BYD’s R&D investment was more than 29 billion yuan, while its profit was only more than 21 billion yuan. At present, BYD has 11 research institutes, more than 90,000 technicians and more than 40,000 patents. In 2023, BYD recruited 30,000 fresh graduates as engineers, 60% of whom were masters and doctors, and 700-800 people came from famous schools such as Tsinghua and Peking University. "

  In the market above 300,000 yuan, BYD only has Tengshi D9 sales performance. Wang Chuanfu, chairman of BYD, said in the first quarter of 2023 that "the high-end brand market is facing reshuffle, and it is estimated that Tengshi will sell 20,000 units by the end of 2023." There is still a gap at present. Wang Chuanfu also said, "BYD started with a sales target of 3 million vehicles this year and tried to double it to 3.6 million vehicles." Although BYD has achieved its sales target, it is slightly different from the best expectation. It can be seen that Wang Chuanfu is optimistic about the new energy market, especially the high-end market, but BYD still needs time to cultivate its impact on the high-end market. However, looking at the current market of more than 300,000 yuan, China brand has only an ideal performance in sales volume, and the road ahead is still very long.

BYD Seagull 2023 Flying Edition

"BYD Seagull Interior"

  In 2023, BYD launched a series of champion models, aiming at continuously improving the product strength and constantly exploring the selling price. The best-selling models Qin PLUS, Song PLUS, Yuan PLUS, Han and Song Pro all have champion models, "99,800 yuan Qin PLUS champion version to make friends!" What’s even more outrageous is that even at this price, there is still a big promotion. For example, Qin PLUS has a limited-time discount of 10,000 yuan on the basis of 99,800 yuan. At the same time, BYD also launched a low-cost electric car Seagull this year, which can achieve a battery life of 405km under CLTC conditions with less than 100,000 yuan. Although the sparrow is small and complete, who can not love such an exquisite car? It sold 50,000 units in December alone.

  Behind the price reduction, the net profit of the company has not been affected. In the third quarter of 2023, BYD still achieved a net profit of 10.413 billion yuan, an increase of 82.16% year-on-year. The net profit is still much higher than that of other car companies of China brand. This is due to BYD’s advantages in self-developed technology and spare parts supply. BYD’s self-produced spare parts, including batteries and other core three, can control the cost lower and have its own core technology at the same time.

"BYD Blade Battery"

  Different from many car companies, BYD started to lay out the supply chain system as early as 20 years ago, and started to make semiconductors in 2002. Today, Huawei’s supplier cooperation model is popular. In fact, BYD laid out earlier. A self-developed system can make the industrial chain safer and lower in cost. At the same time, BYD adopts the mode of vertically integrating the supply chain. In the period of industry change, BYD and suppliers can work together. This independent supply chain system is not achieved overnight, but accumulated in the past 20 years, and it is difficult for competitors to learn, which has made BYD’s enterprise virtuous circle.

  In 2023, BYD also let foreign friends put up their thumbs. Although BYD’s passenger cars only went to sea for about two years, it was different from many China car companies that focused on third world countries. BYD took the lead in entering the European market and Japanese and other developed countries.

BYD booth at Munich Auto Show 2023

  The crowds at the BYD booth at the Munich Motor Show in 2023 were impressive, and the Japanese media’s admiration for BYD at the Tokyo Motor Show was equally unforgettable. Compared with the serious involution in China market, the penetration rate of new energy in overseas markets is not high, and there are more opportunities. BYD takes the lead in entering the developed markets. On the one hand, Europe will be more receptive to new energy vehicles. In addition, BYD also has branches in Europe and America, and it knows more about the local area. Li Yunfei said, "BYD should show an international image, a high-tech company and the concept of focusing on the sustainable development of mankind overseas."

  Of course, compared with SAIC and Chery, which have been "going out" for many years, BYD has just started to go out to sea in the field of passenger cars, and it still needs to brand and build sales channels.

● Outlook for 2024

  Technology-driven has been deeply rooted in BYD. In 2024, BYD will focus on the weak links, and by going up one flight of stairs will focus on the superior projects. In the future, BYD will release core technologies every year, striving to make the product experience better.

  At present, BYD’s weakest link is the high-level intelligent driving assistance. When the new car-making forces, even the products of 200,000 yuan, are rolling in high-level intelligent driving, BYD’s high-level intelligent driving assistance systems in cities and high-speed road conditions are not equipped, and they still stay on the basic L2-level automatic driving assistance. In the era when high-level intelligent driving assistance was still in PPT, Wang Chuanfu once said that "unmanned driving is a fool of ordinary people, and it is useless at all."

  As the industry began to compete for intelligence, when it was actually in actual combat, Wang Chuanfu began to recruit people in the field of autonomous driving. At present, BYD has the largest intelligent R&D team in the world, and its R&D investment in the intelligent field has accumulated over 100 billion. In fact, advanced intelligent driving assistance can not only enhance the sense of science and technology, but also become a way to increase profits through optional opening.

Tengshi N7 Intelligent Driving Hardware

  And all this will happen soon in the future. At the press conference of Tengshi N7 last year, the official has indicated that high-speed NOA will be realized in Q4 of 2023, high-speed obstacle avoidance, large curvature ramp driving, cross-floor parking and other functions will be realized in March of 2024, and NOA driving support in 20 cities is expected to be realized in 2024. Although we haven’t seen Tengshi’s high-speed NOA online yet, it is expected that we will get good news in a few days.

  Of course, if you want to experience BYD’s high-speed NOA, urban NOA, HPA memory parking, AVP parking service, etc., you must add 10,000 yuan to choose a high-end version of the intelligent driver assistance system, and you will get two laser radars and a 254TOPS computing NVIDIA Orin-X chip. The standard driver assistance system has no lidar and only 10TOPS chips. BYD is trying to catch up with new forces in intelligent driving. As for the result, we can look forward to it together.

  In 2024, BYD will also release the fifth-generation DM technology, namely DM 5.0. The new technology is expected to be applied to a new generation of Chinese cars. At present, there is no official information spoiler, but combined with BYD’s patent application for hybrid system in 2021, there is some speculation that a set of double-row star gears may be added to the new system, which may be adjustable in two gears.

"BYD Hybrid System Patent Application"

  The conclusion from the application information is that the new hybrid system has smaller size, lower cost, faster mode switching and better fuel economy. In other words, the new hybrid system can make dolphins and other models have DM models, and the fuel economy of DM-i models will be lower than that of the current models, and the product pricing will be lowered. At the same time, the system will be more intelligent and can meet more working conditions. Of course, none of the above has been officially confirmed, and we still need to wait for the official to reveal the answer.

  According to Wang Chuanfu’s vision, "In the next 2-3 years, BYD will use crowd tactics and a large number of R&D personnel to maintain the ability of disruptive technology iteration, with engineers, vertical integration, market strategy and scale advantage. As for a certain technology, it is not the most important for BYD. There are many fish in BYD’s technology pool, and one is fished out when it is critical. "

  So in 2024, what new products will we see in terms of new models?

  Judging from the information on the network, first of all, the brand-new Han took the lead in carrying DM 5.0 and used a brand-new hybrid special chassis. Because the hybrid mechanism is smaller, the shape of the new Han may be more streamlined and dynamic, and it may be upgraded to a front double wishbone suspension that pays more attention to handling. At the same time, the pure electric cruising range of the new car is also expected to increase. The interior is also expected to have a new upgrade. From Song L, we can see the progress of BYD’s interior design, and it is expected that the new Han will have a more eye-catching design. Finally, in terms of model size, according to some spy photos in the early stage, it can also be judged that the size of the new car will be longer and the seating space will be more comfortable.

  Qin L is another model that is expected to be equipped with DM 5.0 technology. At the same time, like Song L, it will launch a pure electric model with CTB battery body integration technology based on E platform 3.0. Judging from the spy photos currently mastered, its appearance and interior will be the same as Song L, with a more dynamic and concise design and a coupe-style design, while the interior will have a larger instrument panel and central control screen. In terms of driving control and endurance performance, there will be better performance.

At present, the new car has been shown in the declaration drawing, which adopts a completely different design style from the previous meta-family.

Also from e platform 3.0, it adopts marine aesthetic design, locates coupe SUV, and further optimizes the design aesthetics of seals. Judging from the published interior spy photos, it is expected that it may be close to the interior design of Song L.

  As early as 2009, BYD built the first sports car S8, which is also a hardtop convertible. Fifteen years later, in addition to looking up to U9, BYD brand will also launch a sports car. At present, there is no news of new models, but some imaginary pictures of new cars have been exposed on the Internet, and we can see that their shapes are quite cool, even the feeling of looking up at U9. After the GT has received a certain degree of attention, I believe that the market segment of civilian sports cars will also attract the pursuit of many young consumers.

  Looking up to U6 will be a medium-sized and large-sized car of looking up to the family. It has the same lowest drag coefficient of 0.195Cd as Xiaomi SU7 in the industry, so it will have outstanding performance in battery life, which may exceed 1000 kilometers. It has an iconic C-head lamp design similar to looking up at U9. The whole body is streamlined and dynamic, equipped with laser radar, and the tail is a coupe shape. The interior of the new car will be equipped with a huge central control screen, and the screen size of the dashboard is not small.

  In addition, you may be more concerned about BYD pickup truck, but the previous news shows that the car may be the first to be launched overseas. At present, BYD’s strategy of going to sea is mainly based on vehicle export in the early stage, and the next stage will still be to build factories overseas. For example, BYD has already set up factories in Thailand and Hungary.

  In Thailand, the EV 3.5 plan formulated by the local government, as long as foreign car companies can set up electric car factories in Thailand before 2027, can give imported cars up to 40% tariff reduction in 2024-2025, and can also reduce the consumption tax by 2%. Building factories overseas can not only reduce tariffs, but also reduce costs appropriately, and at the same time integrate into the local area to localize the models.

  In Hungary, BYD has a local bus production base, and Hungary is located in the center of the European continent, which is an important transportation hub and has a certain automobile industry foundation. BYD’s goal is to occupy 1/10 of the sales of pure electric vehicles in Europe by the end of 2030 through the Hungarian factory and become the first electric vehicle brand in Europe.

"2023 Tokyo Auto Show Visitors Visit Tengshi D9"

  Wang Chuanfu said, "BYD will also focus on countries without local automobile brands in the short term, enter the local area to build vehicle production plants and transport parts to the local area, which can reduce freight and tariffs." For overseas markets, the market with government subsidies for new energy will develop faster, and BYD can occupy the market faster.

  At the same time, in the future, BYD will also rapidly develop offline stores and bring more products according to the rhythm. For example, in Japan, BYD will find many veteran dealers to shop. These dealers have experience, teams, funds and contacts, and can quickly build stores and launch them. At present, BYD has planned to open 100 stores in Japan by 2025.

Write at the end:

  At the ceremony of BYD’s 5 million vehicles rolled off the assembly line in 2023, Wang Chuanfu choked several times in his affectionate speech. Just like when Musk was interviewed by the media in that year, behind the glory of the giant, there were countless nicknames, pressures and pains, and he was even regarded as an alternative, not a normal person. This heartfelt sadness can only be realized by personal experience, just like many Olympic champions will burst into tears when they stand on the podium.

  In 2023, BYD ushered in a new high-light moment in the China market. With an eye to the future, while expanding its scale, BYD still needs to have a longer-term plan in terms of technology and management. In the increasingly involuted China market, BYD’s past people-sea tactics are no longer applicable, but now BYD needs more sophisticated talents to improve its brand image and the whole team. We have seen the transformation of BYD. The number of employees with a master’s degree or above has reached 10,000, which will help BYD make new breakthroughs in technology and become a global leader in the field of new energy.
