Chapter 885: Looking Forward to Electric Vehicles

After the Korn Ferry Group and Goldman Sachs negotiated the acquisition of Sanyo, Goldman Sachs quickly completed Daiwa Securities and Sumitomo Mitsui Bank.

However, even if it seems to others to be a pit, it doesn't matter, Jiang Hui, who is familiar with the future development, feels that Sanyo's battery and motor-related technology and factories alone are worth billions of dollars.

The number one manufacturer of automotive power batteries in later generations has been occupied by Panasonic batteries for a long time, relying on the identity of Tesla's exclusive battery supplier, Panasonic batteries have lived a very moist life.

In second place is CATL, a new company that ATL's power battery division has spun off.

The technology of Panasonic battery mainly comes from the acquisition of Sanyo, before that, although Panasonic battery is not bad, but there is still a relatively large distance from the top of the industry.

Now, Sanyo and ATL are already in the bag of the Korn Glory Group, and when the era of electric vehicles comes, everyone finds that all the original car manufacturers are working for the Korn Glory Group.

The main reason for the slow development of electric vehicles is the battery.

On the one hand, the energy density of the battery is insufficient, resulting in a range that cannot be compared with traditional fuel vehicles. Charging for a few hours, intelligent operation of more than 100 kilometers, what is the future?

Another aspect is the high price of batteries.

Lithium batteries are very common, and it is usually a matter of a few dollars a pair that everyone buys. The lithium batteries used in electric vehicles are not much higher than those used by everyone on a daily basis, but they can't withstand the large amount of use by others.

Tesla's electric car, for example, uses nearly 7,000 18,650 batteries.

What is 18650 battery?

18650 is the originator of lithium-ion batteries - Sony Corporation in order to save costs and set a standard lithium-ion battery model, where 18 means the diameter is 18mm, 65 means the length is 65mm, and 0 means the cylindrical battery.

As the earliest lithium-ion battery, the 18650 battery is currently the most mature and stable battery portfolio in the world, and it still occupies a leading position. The Celestial Empire produces about billions of batteries per year for 18,650 batteries, a figure that far exceeds batteries of other materials.

The 18650 battery life theory is 1000 cycles. In addition, because the stability of 18650 in the work is very good, it is widely used in major electronic fields: often used in high-end strong light flashlights, portable power supplies, wireless data transmitters, electric heating warm clothing, shoes, portable instrumentation, portable lighting equipment, portable printers, industrial instruments, medical instruments, etc.

However, since the use of 18650 batteries in electric vehicles, automotive batteries have quickly become the most widely used products.

A car costs 7,000 yuan, and 10,000 cars cost 70 million yuan.

And the output of automobiles is hundreds of thousands, millions, at every turn. While electric vehicles haven't reached the million-dollar level yet, it's only a matter of time.

The cost of an electric car, lithium batteries occupy at least one-third, if the price is not very high car, the cost of the battery can account for more than half, when the Guanghui Group monopolizes this field, all the car manufacturers, that is really working for the Guanghui Group.

Buying an electric car is better than buying a battery and giving it a car shell!

In addition to the core component of the battery, there is also a very important part of the electric vehicle, which is the motor.

The motor is composed of three parts: stator, rotor and housing, and the key point of motor technology is the stator and rotor. The rotor is the main drive motor of the new energy vehicle, which undertakes all the functions related to the movement of the new energy vehicle. The motor of the new energy vehicle has forward rotation and reverse rotation, forward rotation is forward driving, reverse rotation is reversing.

In the process of forward acceleration of new energy vehicles, the motor is negative torque, and the accuracy of torque means the speed of acceleration of new energy vehicles. When the torque error, the motor is required to complete the acceleration of the new energy vehicle, and the mileage is transformed into a battery that needs to consume the same energy to complete, and the cost of the battery is larger than that of the motor, so the efficiency and performance of the new energy vehicle motor are very important.

A car can be equipped with one, two or four motors, which are currently divided into two types: AC asynchronous motor and permanent magnet synchronous motor. If high efficiency is to be achieved, permanent magnet synchronous motors are superior, and this is where Sanyo excels.

In fact, when Sanyo first made washing machines, it was already investing heavily in the research of electric motors, and later it slowly expanded to the motors of traditional fuel vehicles and the motors of hybrid systems.

After the acquisition of Sanyo by Guanghui Group, the motor technology can basically be seamlessly connected with Guanghui Automobile, and one of the core three electric vehicles of electric vehicles will be completed in the development of related products for new pure electric vehicles.

As for the three-electric products in addition to the battery and motor, that is, electronic control. Two years ago, Jiang Hui had already arranged for ATL to set up a special project team for research, and now there is the first generation of products.

The cost of the three electric vehicles accounts for at least half of the electric vehicles, and the mastery of these three core technologies basically controls the cost of electric vehicles.

At this time, it seems that it is not so difficult for Guanghui Automobile to seize Tesla's scenery as long as it involves a beautiful electric car.

Although Tesla has been established for several years, the real force was in the first two years, and the first product will not be launched until this year.

Tesla's initial startup team was mainly from Silicon Valley, using IT concepts to build cars, rather than the ideas of traditional automakers represented by Detroit. Therefore, Tesla's construction of electric cars is often seen as a story of a Silicon Valley kid vs. a Detroit giant.

On July 1, 2003, Martin Eberhard and his long-time business partner Mark Tarpenning co-founded Tesla Motors, which is headquartered in Silicon Valley, California, USA.

After its founding, Tesla began looking for the investment and materials needed for an efficient electric sports car. Since Martin had no experience in this area, he eventually approached AC Propulsion. Under the introduction of the CEO of AC Propulsion, Elon Musk got to know Martin's team.

Everyone is not mistaken, Elon Musk joined Tesla in the middle, and he is not the founder of Tesla.

It took Tesla about five years to polish before launching its first product, the Roadster, in February this year. During this period, most of the time and money was spent on research and development.

For example, Tesla's electric vehicle is proud of its range, which comes from a battery pack composed of more than 7,000 batteries, which will not catch fire even if it is short-circuited, and individual battery damage will not affect others - this battery control system is developed by Tesla itself, and so far there has been no battery failure.

Moreover, this mode also ensures that it can be equipped with the most advanced batteries at any time to equip Tesla electric vehicles.

Now, it is far from the most glorious time for Tesla, and there are still many opportunities for Glorious Auto.
