This car doesn't even have a steering wheel!

This car really doesn't have a steering wheel!

How could this car not have a steering wheel!

The Porsche man is a little dizzy, how can a car without a steering wheel control the direction?

Just when the Porsche man was still doubting his eyes, the green light was already on.

Tianhe 01, according to the instructions of the model light, accelerated forward.

"Hey, Mingzi, do you know of any cars on the market that don't have a steering wheel?"

Mingzi is a mechanic of a well-known car change shop in Jiangcheng, and he is also an automobile self-media with millions of fans, and has a deep understanding of the automotive industry.

As long as it is a car driving on the road, whether you are a domestic brand or a foreign brand, even if the annual sales volume is less than three digits, Mingzi knows.

But Tianhe 01, Mingzi obviously hasn't heard of it.

"What are you talking about? A car without a steering wheel? Mr. Dao, are you kidding, how can it be without a steering wheel, even an electric tricycle has a steering wheel. ”

Porsche always said: "It's true, I saw a minute ago that the car next to me didn't have a steering wheel, and the exterior and interior of the car were very stylish! Especially the interior, I saw that the people in the cab were actually lying down and playing." ”

Mingzi said: "Pull it down, you are definitely dazzled by the knife." I've been doing car self-media for five or six years, and I haven't seen a car without a steering wheel. ”

Mr. Dao's eyes were not flowering, Mr. Dao himself was already confused, and under the constant urging of the vehicles behind him, Mr. Dao came back to his senses and drove the Porsche across the zebra crossing.

On the roads of the city, Xiao Ming conducted several extreme tests on Tianhe 01.

One is to change the destination at short notice.

On the streets of Jiangcheng, which crisscross but only have one-way streets, Xiao Ming can change the location of the destination at will, and Xiao Chu, the driving assistant, can change the route at the most appropriate time and choose the best route.

The on-board assistant is currently equipped with its own intelligent navigation system, which can be directly connected with the traffic department and several major navigation systems, and grasp the real-time road conditions at any time, so there will be no situation where the road congestion is also selected when the shortcut road is selected.

The second is to inform multiple destinations, Xiao Ming can tell Xiao Chu more than ten destinations in one go, if he does not inform Xiao Chu of the order of arrival at the destination, Xiao Chu will make the optimal planning of the route by himself.

The third is the free driving mode, when the user does not inform a clear destination, Xiao Chu will drive freely in a limited circle of square kilometers.

In the process of driving, the speed of Tianhe 01 is automatically adjusted according to the actual situation of the road, when the traffic flow is relatively large, the speed is consistent with the car in front, and the safe distance is ensured.

When the traffic volume is small, the driving speed is the maximum speed of the current road limit.

Because of the accurate calculation, the Tianhe 01 will not accelerate suddenly or brake suddenly, which makes the vehicle feel frustrated.

Even though there are many people and vehicles, and the traffic conditions are complicated, the Tianhe 01 test vehicle still completed all the experimental tasks very well.

Gao Siqi's biggest sigh when sitting in the car is that it is much more comfortable to sit than to drive.

This smooth ride makes you never feel irritated by congested roads.

Gao Siqi said: "In the future, I will take Tianhe 01 to and from work, and I will not worry that my driver's license score will not be deducted enough." ”

After most of the day's experiments, Tianhe 01 successfully returned to Pangu Science and Technology Park, and when returning, Xiao Ming used the automatic driving mode and still did not choose the fast road but chose the county road.

Since it is to be tested, it is necessary to test it all at once, and the selection of the county road is also to test the form of the autonomous driving mode on narrow roads again.

Tianhe 01 was driving automatically on the county road smoothly, and then saw the GT63S racing with Tianhe 01 when he came in the afternoon.

In other words, this GT63S is also unlucky, when waiting for rescue, it was scolded by a large truck, and now the butt of the car is a pile of scrap metal, and the people in the car have come down, otherwise the consequences are unimaginable.

"The county road is so bad because of these big trucks. Qian Yi looked back at the almost scrapped GT63S and prayed silently for it in her heart.

After returning to Pangu Science and Technology Park, Zhang Derui has more important things. He will talk about the summary of all the test data on the road today, and then the technical team will analyze it to see if the performance of the vehicle every second and the state of the driving assistant's adjustment to the vehicle condition are reasonable.

The data will be formed into a summary report and handed over to the Tianhe R&D team for discussion, and finally Tianhe 01 will be optimized again.

The technical issues do not need to be discussed by Xiao Ming, and the problem that Xiao Ming wants to discuss is the future mass production of Tianhe 01.

The production of new energy vehicles is a new industry for Pangu Technology, which does not have a complete production line or a complete sales channel.

At present, the only production line that can be used for new energy vehicles is the production line of Tianhe 01 test vehicle, which does not have the ability to produce on a large scale, if it is produced in this way, the cost of Tianhe 01 will be quite high and it is not competitive in the market.

Tianhe 01 produces several important components, micro-core battery pack, motor, in-vehicle assistant, body (including interior) and chassis.

Among them, the micro-core battery pack has a complete production line, and the in-vehicle assistant can use the production line of Qinghe I wearable devices.

There is certainly no problem with the mass production of these two things.

Due to the small size of the motor, it was soon possible to set up its own production line.

Now the biggest headache is the body and chassis, these two things Pangu Technology does not have its own production line at all, and it takes a lot of time to re-establish the production line.

Zhang Derui said: "The production of the body is not difficult, any production line in Xia Guo can meet it, and the chassis is also passed, but some equipment needs to be added." ”

Xiao Ming said: "There are two choices, one is to acquire an automobile company with a complete production line and improve the production line, and the other is to build the production line from scratch." ”

Zhang Derui nodded and said: "That's what it means, I personally mean to buy a finished production line, because we only need simple improvements to be able to put it into use, and the body and chassis are not the core technology." ”

Xiao Ming handed over the problem to Xiao Chu and asked Xiao Chu to calculate the cost, including time cost and money cost, whether it was better to re-establish a complete production line or acquire a complete production line.

After calculating in seconds, Xiaochu came to the conclusion that the acquisition is more cost-effective than the new construction, because in terms of cost, Pangu Technology is more important than the time cost rather than the economic cost.

"When we compare the economic value created per unit of time with the economic value alone, it is clear that it is more cost-effective to save time. ”

Xiao Chu said: "The automotive industry is also an industry with a market value of trillions. ”
