"So, this car was designed by you and Mr. Kim?"

The German journalist finally seized an opportunity to correct the name of the Germans, and at this time, of course, they were trying hard to induce Peter to add face to the Germans.

After all, this car is now just from the appearance of the car, it can be said that this car, has been successful, if all the honor is taken away by Jin Xiaoqiang of Huayang Power, then he is the only one in the limelight in the past few years, which makes this group of arrogant German reporters, how can they accept it.

"Yes, so to speak! After I joined Huayang Power, Misterkin provided me with maximum support, he even prepared a special laboratory building for me, hehe, and equipped me with a special R&D team, and it was with the help of these engineers that we completed the design of this car. ”

Peter is very practical and very modest, while he told the truth, he also slapped Jin Xiaoqiang's ass a little, after all, if there was no Jin Xiaoqiang, there would be no him standing on the stage now.

"Alright! Peter, can you give us a detailed introduction to the 5 in front of you? ”

It was the German journalist again, and asked Peter that it was time to take the car in detail.

"Oh, well! After I arrived at Huayang Power, I immediately devoted myself to the research and development of this car, I discussed the shape design of this car with Kim, and then in terms of shape design, as well as frame architecture, I will develop it, and Jin is to complete the design of the powertrain of this car, I have to say, in this regard, he is really a master. ”

Peter gently gave Jin Xiaoqiang a first-class sycophant, which made Jin Xiaoqiang, who was standing behind him, feel very comfortable, but in fact, this is also a real feeling from the bottom of Peter's heart.

After all, the powertrain of this car is really not something that ordinary people can make, otherwise so many great engineers in these years, why can't they come up with an engine with a compression ratio of 13:1?

"First of all, I want to say that the technology applied by our car is called SKYACTIV Technology......"

Jin Xiaoqiang once again shamelessly blocked the road of Mazda later, anyway, even other people's technology has been plagiarized, what can you do if you take the name and use it directly.

In addition, Mazda is probably immersed in the joy of the launch of their 03 Mazda6 and has not yet begun to think about developing new technologies.

"When Misterkin and I discussed the development of this latest model, the aim was to work on fuel economy and environmental protection. As we all know, the price of crude oil in the world is rising, and the era of advocating energy conservation and environmental protection has arrived, Mr. Jin and I said that they have successfully developed an EcoBoost engine, which and the dual-clutch powertrain he is equipped with, can successfully do it, saving 30% or more fuel than ordinary models with the same displacement. However, the cost of this powertrain is relatively high, so it is only equipped with mid-to-high-end models, but for ordinary consumers, do they also have the right to enjoy the same energy-saving and environmentally friendly technology? ”

Peter began to look at it and talked, worthy of a character who had experienced a big scene, and in the face of these reporters, his explanation could be said to be orderly and full of the demeanor of a general.

"So when Mister Gold and I were developing this engine, the main purpose was to develop a special energy-saving and environmentally friendly model for ordinary colleges and universities. So when we designed this new model, we adopted a lot of new technologies, including the cage structure design of the body structure, as well as the changes made in the engine and transmission, and Kim also designed a new chassis for this car, so that in the end, these technologies are collectively known as SKYACTIV technology. ”…,

Peter paused, so that the reporters below had time to digest what he just said, in his words just now, almost every sentence of Jin Xiaoqiang, it seems that in his heart, he has fully accepted the fact that Jin Xiaoqiang is his leader, and has fully recognized Jin Xiaoqiang's ability.

And he also mentioned the main core technology of their new car, SKYACTIV!

"We all know that with the current engine design, if you want to make the engine more fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly, then you can only improve the compression ratio of air and fuel. With the current technology, if you want to solve this problem, you can only make a fuss about the engine, such as configuring the engine with a more suitable turbocharger, or mechanical supercharger and so on. But everyone also knows that if the engine is equipped with such equipment, it will undoubtedly increase the manufacturing cost of the engine, which makes it difficult for us to design a civilian model. So in order to improve the compression ratio of the engine without using such additional equipment, we have thought of many ways. In terms of exterior design, we have increased the flow line of the whole vehicle to effectively reduce wind resistance, and in terms of the weight of the body, we have adopted new structures and processing methods as much as possible to reduce the dead weight. ”

Peter began to mention the most important part of the car, the cage frame structure of the body, which may not be new in a few years, but if it is now, it can be said that it is definitely a breakthrough.

"I designed the frame of the body, and now I will tell you about my new body structure design. In the body design of this car, in order to reflect the purpose of energy conservation and environmental protection, we must reduce the weight of the body, but at the same time reduce the weight of the body, we must also ensure the rigidity and safety of the body. So I adopted a new type of body structure, which is such a cage body design......"

Peter explained to the reporters in the audience, and turned back to show everyone the picture on the large projection screen behind him, on the display screen, at this time, it happened to show the new car's body-in-white and bare frame, but on the steel frame structure of the bare frame, different colored lines are used to show the different materials used.

"On the steel frame of the body, we choose special high-strength steel, which can not only reduce the weight of the body, but also increase the strength of the body, and in some special parts, we also use aluminum alloy components to reduce the weight of the body......

Peter is a world-class design master, and he is a German, so it is not easy for these reporters below to question him, after all, the proof is still the same, and his special status makes these reporters feel that this guy can be regarded as half of their own......

"In terms of the reinforcing components of the chassis, we use more straight line design, rather than the curved structure used in the general car, so that while facilitating the processing, it can also reduce the weight of the body very perfectly...... As you can see in the other parts of the site, we also use a flatter shape for these components, which is conducive to reducing air resistance...... It will further improve the economic ...... of the whole vehicle."

Holding a laser pointer in one hand, Peter pointed to the big screen behind him on the stage, constantly swiping over the body components, and explained to the reporters below, which was very clear and made the reporters understand and believe these things more clearly. …,

"And on the anti-collision steel beams in front of the body, we use 1,800 megapascals of high-strength steel, coupled with the three-layer collapse structure of the front compartment of the engine, the safety performance of the whole vehicle is highlighted to the best state...... In the end, the weight of the body-in-white of the whole vehicle is about 10% lower than that of ordinary models, but the rigidity of the body is 30% higher than the original......

Peter's explanation made the following reporters fall into a buzzing discussion, and sure enough, this new car is indeed very interesting, and the technical content is indeed quite high!

Let's not talk about the powertrain of this car, how, just the shape and structure of this car is very interesting and gimmicky.

You must know that these years the big guys are making a fuss about the weight reduction of the body, after all, if you want to save fuel, the best and fastest way is to reduce the weight of the body.

But the best in this regard are of course the Japanese, Germans and Americans, because they can't save face, and because they have always adhered to the design style of safety first, they have not been able to find a suitable way to reduce the weight of the body.

In the end, the foolish Germans, in order to achieve the purpose of reducing the weight of the body, did not hesitate to study a set of all-aluminum alloy body processing technology, but unfortunately due to the high cost, in the end these technologies can only be used in high-end models, such as the Audi Q7 on the market this time, for ordinary models, such technology, is too luxurious.

But this time Peter designed this new car 5, it provides you with a very good design idea, such a way to reduce the weight of the body, in this year is really very novel, the new cage body structure, is really quite creative.

All of a sudden, the weight of the body can be reduced by 10%, and at the same time, the rigidity of the body can be increased instead of falling, which is enough to see the skill of this design master.
