Regarding Li Fanyu's decision, Sanxueba was quite excited. There are many R&D projects that the three of them are working on now, but as far as the I8 is concerned, it has a special meaning for everyone.

When I wanted to go to Germany to compete, Li Fanyu made a plan, and the I8 that everyone planned can be said to give everyone hope to compete for the championship. But because of the plagiarism storm that followed, this model, which was very likely to win the Grand Prix, unexpectedly collapsed and became a regret for everyone for a long time.

Now, Li Fanyu has finally picked up this dusty pearl, and the fire that has been held in everyone's hearts for a long time has been rekindled.

"Brother Fan, don't worry. Isn't it just a competition between TSL's current two cars?

"That's right. We believe that there are now both electric and gasoline engines, and it is not difficult to put the I8 into reality. Aren't they TSL engaged in pure electric and technology? Now we don't lack anything. ”

Listening to Xu Fufang and Liu Qing waving their fists, Li Fanyu said "um".

"Brothers, the current two models are based on high-performance pure electric vehicles, and they are intended to build a high-end brand among electric vehicles. Judging by the previous market performance, this direction is feasible. This has been confirmed by the performance of the first MD in the Chinese market, and it is very good to prove that it has achieved good sales even though the construction progress of the basic electric piles is almost zero, and the charging is basically dependent on household electricity. In fact, without our disruption, their Pally would have been able to achieve good results in the Chinese market. ”

"Well, although now I look at TSL with a belly of anger. But I have to deny that there is still a market for their positioning. So Brother Fan, what do you mean by moving the I8 directly to the TSL?" Liu Qing touched his chin and asked.

Li Fanyu nodded, "Now that TSL has proved that this path is feasible, and we want to compete with it directly, then it is natural to move closer to their current product positioning." Therefore, the I8 car, the tone can't be too high. As you know, at present, China has a policy for new energy vehicles. As an imported product, TSL's model tariffs are almost negligible, so in terms of price, we don't have the same tax advantage as we did against other brands of internal combustion engine models. ”

"Brother Fan is right. Xu Fufang tapped his temples with his hand, "At present, the price of the basic version of Pally is 650,000 yuan, and the top model is 890,000 yuan." This price range, if it corresponds to our product line, is a high-performance version of the coupe. ”

"That's why I called you over today, 8 This car, we are going to put it to the test in the market, and the criteria for winning this competition are sales volume and market influence. In terms of positioning and configuration, we can't be as costless as we did before. Li Fanyu nodded at the table and said what he thought.

"That's easy to do. Wang Yu, who had been silent, got up and took a pen and paper from Li Fanyu's desk, "Brother Fan, the I8 model is not new. We are familiar with the shape part, and we will start designing it now. First of all, the general arrangement and power plan are roughly determined, and I will go back and calculate the preliminary cost with the zero distribution side. With this design and TSL's two competing products as the standard, wouldn't it be better for us to fine-tune and modify it?"

I can't imagine that this guy is still so anxious to handle the design.

Li Fan smiled foolishly and picked up the pen and paper.

In fact, the first cooperation with Baiwei Mutual Entertainment was before, that is, before the electric bus. Li Fanyu is like making I8. However, the battery motor technology at that time was not very mature, so it was not realized in the end.

In his original idea, he wanted to make the I8 a pure electric supercar.

But it turned out that he was still a little taken for granted at that time. Without market research and no experience in Formula E, many ideas can be realized through design expertise. However, if you really want to create a payment market, there will inevitably be a lot of bias.

Sometimes, what people do is really predestined and arranged by God.

Now Li Fanyu has experience in the design of Formula E racing cars, experience in power modification of Tomahawks, and a deeper understanding and familiarity with his own battery motor technology.

So when I picked up the pen again and put the I8 on paper, the idea in my heart was much more mature.

However, no matter what time it is, Li Fanyu is not a person who likes to stick to the rules. Even in the I8, which he was familiar with in the previous time and space, and had been launched twice in this time and space, he still incorporated some of his own understandings into the models that had initial research and development expectations.

A little more than half an hour later, a scribbled sketch came out.

Although in terms of appearance, it still maintains the shadow of BMI8 in the time and space before Li Fanyu, but in terms of internal layout, drive mode, and power scheme, earth-shaking changes have taken place.

Especially in the driving mode, it directly made the three scholars feel a sense of domineering air rushing towards them!

"Wait!" Liu Qing stretched out his hand and slapped on the sketch, "Brother Fan, other people's four-wheel drive is an engine plus two transmission groups. What the hell are you with these four motors!"

On the sketch paper, the four wheels of the I8 were designed by Li Fanyu as a separate drive assembly.

The suspension, the electric motor and the power recuperation system assembly are combined to form a rather weird-looking transmission structure.

Li Fanyu smacked his lips, "Inside, inside, is the best way to control the motor drive in my imagination." How's that going? Doesn't it look cool?"

Seeing that Sanxueba's face was confused, he seemed to hold a pencil, pointed to the sketch and said, "Na, you see." The suspension, power recovery system, and drive system are integrated into one, which can make perfect use of kinetic energy and form a small cycle on the four wheels, which greatly reduces the loss of centralized circulation. Moreover, these four independent powertrain systems can also be controlled separately through the ECU, perfectly simulating and adjusting the front and rear drive ratios, and realizing all the functions of traditional automobiles, such as differential locks and differentials. On top of that, the balance of the weights is perfect!"

Liu Qing smiled dryly: "But you just said that you can't ignore the cost......"

"Hey, you can't think like that!" Li Fanyu waved his hand, "Brothers, it's nothing more than dispersing the big assembly into a small assembly." And if we have to wrestle with TSL, we can't just rely on one model! If you think about it, this kind of drive and power mode is a highly liberal chassis platform!"

After he said this, the eyes of the three scholars lit up.
