Chapter 447: Codename: F150, Let's go!

"Brother Fan, so you're going to take us to the United States for a wave?!"

Looking at the excited faces of the three scholars, Li Fan nodded foolishly, "That's necessary, we have worked hard to develop until now, and it is time to start the mode of conquering the world." ”

"Hehe, that's a good dare. Brother Fan, I can tell you, after this time is over, you have to invite us to Hawaii for a walk, you can pay for it!"

Li Fanyu smiled and said, "It's not a problem, but we have to get down to business now." Have you seen the drawings?"

This is the second day of Li Fanyu's return to China.

After returning home last night, he had already redeemed the drawings through Xapp, which he completed overnight and passed on to the three scholars.

"After studying Brother Fan! Your model drawings have a lot of similarities in appearance with the Knight 15 we did before, but there are not many similarities in the interior. I don't understand, why not launch a civilian version based on the Knight XV improvements?"

Liu Qing blinked and asked puzzled.

Li Fanyu couldn't bear to say that he was mentally retarded!

"Ma Dan, this time we are targeting the American market, do you think it is appropriate to sell the low-profile version of the third-generation military vehicle to the Yankees?"

Looking at Liu Qing's sneer, Li Fanyu shook his head helplessly.

If according to the normal situation, in order to save R&D costs and time, Knight 15 can completely reduce some configurations, reduce costs and change to a civilian version.

But after all, this time it is aimed at the American market, and the Knight 15 is currently being developed by the military to carry various weapon platforms and plug-ins, but it has not yet been officially unveiled in front of the public. The domestic military is still in a state of testing, and here it will sell the civilian version to the United States......

Don't talk about the above problem, why do you want to order the third generation of cars in the future?

So this time, he redeemed a brand new pickup truck model directly from the space.

It's the famous F150!

If you want to say that this model, it is actually related to the Knight Fifteen, but that's all.

Why is it so related?

Strictly speaking, the Knight 15 is a member of the Ford F series in the history of the car, that is, the modified version of the F350, and the chassis and full-time four-wheel drive technology are inherited from here.

Why is that all?

Although they are both F series, the F150 and F250-F550 are fundamentally different.

F250 upwards, in fact, has been out of the range of light trucks, is a proper heavy-duty series. To put it simply, pickup trucks also have light and heavy jobs.

Both the F250 and F550 belong to the heavy-duty series. To what extent is the heavy load? Take the current third-generation car QS15 plug-in project as an example, Dute can carry a surface-to-air and surface-to-ground missile launch base on the QS15!

When it comes to the F450 and 550, the rear trucks are two pairs, and the rear bucket of the car is not different from the truck at all. These two cars, in the original historical process, were converted into fire trucks by the fire department of the United States, and their load capacity and horsepower can be seen.

Only the 150 is a pure pickup.

So although it looks similar from the outside, in terms of bearing structure and some specific performance, it is actually not compatible with Knight Fifteen.

The F150's performance and size are lower than those of the Knight's Fifteen, but as a civilian pickup, the performance is good enough to be outstanding.

Needless to say, the body size is nearly six meters long, and although the two-meter width is different from the QS15, it is a full circle larger than the average domestic pickup, and the wheelbase of 3.69 meters is also quite powerful.

The car is powered by a V8 engine with 2 valves per cylinder, which can output a maximum torque of 388 Nm and a super horsepower of 287KW. Coupled with the unique all-road driving system technology and high-strength chassis design, the F150 can easily climb over a high slope of more than 30 degrees and wade through a puddle of more than 70 decimeters in the unloaded state. Thanks to these properties, it can maintain high speeds even on unpaved dirt roads.

In the time and space before the history of automobiles changed, the F150 was known as an "unpaved sports car".

All kinds of attributes are superimposed, and it can be described in a limerick poem;

I can climb the mountain and cross the river. I can pull a yacht and do farm work.

In Li Fanyu's memory, the American people rarely have such cars.

Looking at the stupid three scholars, Li Fanyu waved his hand, "Okay, don't talk nonsense." Now that you've seen the drawings, how long do you expect to complete the R&D progress before the test based on our current conditions?"

This sentence asked the three scholars to be overbearing, and they were trying to ask Li Fanyu for advice on this matter.

According to the drawings sent over last night, this pickup truck, tentatively named F150, actually has three power versions: V6, V8, and V10. In addition to these three powers, according to the different technical comfort configurations, the basic version and the luxury version are separated.

This means that the F150 has six configurations in one model.

This is unprecedented since Zhengxin began to build cars to the present!

Since the A4, the company has been adhering to the principle of practicality and cost performance in terms of model configuration.

Li Fanyu also held a meeting for each R&D team on this concept, and Sanxueba still clearly remembers his original words: "The car made by Zhengxin must avoid fancy, gimmick, and all configurations." In the process of research and development, try to avoid carrying some configurations that are not commonly used by users, and really make users feel practical and affordable. ”

Knyima, this drawing is very different from this principle!

"Brother Fan, I have experience in the research and development of QS15, and it is not difficult to make this model. Before the test, I estimate that it will be about the same in more than two weeks. But... I don't understand these configurations... Isn't it too much? And in our opinion... It's a bit of a waste, like the luxury version of this V8, what smart key, what front and rear auxiliary power supply, what tilting steering wheel...... We can't do these things in our industrial park, so we have to bid for external bidding. Doesn't that raise costs?"

Facing the puzzled eyes of the three scholars, Li Fanyu really hated that iron could not become steel, "The cost is high, let's raise the price!"

"That's too high... It's going to affect sales, right?"

Li Fanyu continued to dislike, "Isn't there a beggar version of V6?"

"It's not... Your high configuration is too high, and the beggar's configuration is too low!

A bunch of elm pimple heads!

"Comprehensive, comprehensive together, make money with Mao!"

In the face of the three scholars who didn't know it, he said weakly: "You have to understand a little bit that this car was developed for the American market." Do you understand what I mean?"

"Forehead ......"

They still don't understand!

"The meaning of the research and development for the United States is that we don't sell it in China, and this car is used to make Yankee money! So don't control it, just do it according to the configuration I require. If you think the configuration of the beggar version is low, let the Yankees buy the luxury version, or add money to choose the configuration!"

In this way, the three scholars will understand.

Isn't this Nima the cheating model of foreign car companies in the Chinese market?

Since this is the case, the concubine can do it!

Coming out of Li Fanyu, Sanxueba quickly gathered all the teams in the R&D center.

A brand new project codenamed F150, go to you!
