Chapter 119: Crash Test [Ask for Collections and Recommendations]
Today is still three more, ask for collection, ask for recommendation!
***********
The Chinese name of euro-ncap is the European New Car Evaluation Safety Association, which is proposed by five European countries and combined with the European Union organization, professional scholars, and senior scientific and technological engineers to establish a professional new car safety evaluation organization.
All new cars listed in the European Union will undergo a safety assessment by this organization before they are launched, and it can be said that this organization is currently one of the most authoritative new car safety evaluation organizations in the world.
Jin Xiaoqiang's Huayang Power and their cars, if they want to make a name for themselves in the world, they must pass the rating of this organization, especially if they want to be listed in Europe, America and other countries with developed car culture.
Because Europe and North America have developed economies and car culture, consumers who come to these places will first pay attention to the surname of the car when buying a car, then the safety of the car, and then the appearance or something.
And this safety crash test has a very important weight in the hearts of European and American consumers, you must know that the two cars of Huazhong Automobile, Zunchi and Junjie, were returned by many dealers because of their poor performance in the safety test.
This is different from the car consumers of the Celestial Empire, for the car consumers of the Celestial Empire, it is more important to buy a car to save face, as for the surname can and the surname is safe, it is secondary.
This is also the reason why, everyone knows that this car is a mobile can, but there are still many consumers who pay for these cans that will threaten the life safety of drivers anytime and anywhere.
In fact, the car is not as useless as the legend, in fact, the safety surname of the car listed in the country and Europe and the United States is still very good, and even many models can pass the European safety crash test.
But why is it very unsafe to get the Celestial Empire?
This is mainly related to the quality of the steel of the Celestial Empire, which emphasizes fuel saving, so first of all, it is necessary to work the decline of the weight of the car.
Therefore, the weight of the car is generally very light, and the thickness of the steel plate of a car can be 2 cm, so it will definitely not be 2.1 cm.
However, they obviously ignored one point, that is, the smelting technology of the Celestial Empire was more developed than that of the Celestial Empire, and the strength of the steel plate and even each screw produced in the Celestial Empire was much stronger than that of the Celestial Empire.
But after they brought the car to the Celestial Empire, they knew that the steel of the Celestial Empire could not reach the strength they could do, but they still ignored it.
This is the reason why a few years later, everyone can often see on the Internet that the car is broken axle, and even after an accident, the entire body is torn in half.
But even under such a strong exposure, the car is still selling well in the Celestial Empire, which also makes Jin Xiaoqiang fully understand the irrationality of Celestial Empire consumers.
Buy what is expensive? It's not the surname-price ratio that buys, it's the face!!
If such a car had been brought to Europe and the United States, and such an accident had occurred, I am afraid that it would have been forcibly ordered to delist from the market by European and American countries, but in the Celestial Empire......
This time, Jin Xiaoqiang brought several cars such as Yidong, Octavia, and Yihu to Europe to participate in the safety crash test, not for show.
He's really trying to test the safety of these cars, because as a responsible car manufacturer, you have to make sure that your consumers can drive your car with peace of mind.
In this way, you can build a good reputation and cultivate customers who are extremely loyal to your brand, instead of playing fake, publicity, and deception.
A total of more than a dozen cars from other manufacturers were sent to participate in the crash test with them, and the crash test laboratory was selected in Volkswagen's crash test.
In fact, Jin Xiaoqiang is not worried about his own products, because these models are mature products that have withstood many tests in later generations.
Moreover, in the construction of the body, because a lot of smelting materials of special alloy steel were obtained from Naruto Shinyuki, their body steel was also greatly improved.
Moreover, most of the design of the models also adopts high-strength safety design, so Jin Xiaoqiang is still very confident in passing the EU crash test.
You must know that Europeans and Americans have already discriminated against the products of our Celestial Empire, and in their opinion, we are also suitable for manufacturing some shoes, shirts and other light industrial products.
So Jin Xiaoqiang has been holding his breath in his heart, this time he must let these foreign devils open their eyes and let them realize that we people in the Celestial Empire can also build cars and build good cars.
In later generations, there were also several independent car companies of the Celestial Empire that sent their products to Europe for crash tests, and as a result, Zunchi got a three-star evaluation, and the best result was only a 4-star evaluation of Liji's Emgrand.
And this will not cause some independent car companies to pay attention to this test, and even in 2011, a certain domestic car triumphantly went to participate in the Frankfurt Motor Show, but later scored zero points in a crash test in Germany, which is really embarrassing to throw abroad......
This crash test is still the same as the old four, including frontal, side, cylindrical, and pedestrian collisions, mainly to check the protection function of the car for the driver, as well as the passengers behind and pedestrians on the road when a frontal and side collision occurs.
Long before participating in this experiment, Jin Xiaoqiang deliberately put a lot of effort into the safety of the car, in Jin Xiaoqiang's concept, the car is just a means of transportation for human beings.
For human beings, the car is nothing more than a tool to serve human beings, so its safety should be put first.
Therefore, the standard of Huayang Power's car manufacturing is that the whole system is equipped with ESP body stability system as standard, and in terms of airbag configuration, it is even more expensive.
In later generations, many independent car companies, because they were not up to the standard in technology, coupled with the encirclement and suppression of large car dealers in Europe and the United States, could not compete with these big cars in the market for the mid-to-high-end market.
Therefore, they can only make a fuss about the price, but while they are making a fuss about the price, they are reducing the allocation in the security system, which is very undesirable in Jin Xiaoqiang's view.
You must know that when the cars in Europe and the United States are sold, the ESP body stability system is generally a tacit and necessary safety system, and even in the United States, their automobile industry has written this article into the legal provisions.
But this is not the case in the Celestial Empire, every year because of cars without ESP system, how many human tragedies occur because of car tire bursts, or loss of control?
This is what Jin Xiaoqiang doesn't want to see, and it is also an act that his Huayang Power disdains.
At the beginning of the establishment of Huayang Power, Jin Xiaoqiang has emphasized many times at high-level meetings that their Huayang Power cars must be safety-oriented, integrity-based, and people-oriented.
This is why he negotiated with Bosch in the first place and spent a lot of money to introduce the ESP system.
Jin Xiaoqiang has long stipulated that no matter what price their car is, all of them will be equipped with ESP as standard, and even if the cost is high, it can be found from elsewhere.
Everything else can be saved, but this security configuration cannot be saved.
After all, their technical starting point is higher than that of other domestic independent manufacturers, they do not need to spend money to invite foreign design teams to design the shape of their cars, involving engines, design transmissions, and body materials, and they do not need to import a large number of special steel from foreign countries, which they can solve by themselves, so as to save a lot of money.
Putting these expenses on the security system, instead of entering the account of Huayang Power, and not putting them in his Jin Xiaoqiang's pocket, is a responsible attitude towards consumers.
After more than ten days of back-and-forth crash tests, these cars of Huayang Power really lived up to Jin Xiaoqiang's painstaking efforts, and all of them successfully passed the European crash test, and even got a five-star evaluation.
Although the experts of the European New Car Appraisal Association were all wide-eyed and picking on the faults of Huayang Power's cars, in the end, they could only shake their heads in the face of the facts.
Of course, Jin Xiaoqiang knows what these bullshit experts think, and you must know that every car listed in Europe must go through their evaluation, and the results of their evaluation will greatly affect the consumption tendency of consumers in the market.
At the beginning, Huazhong Automobile failed the collision test in Europe, and was even maliciously hit with the minimum standard of one star, which directly led to the delisting of Huazhong Automobile in Europe.
To say that Huazhong Automobile is indeed not angry, it is one thing, but it is not excluded that these bullshit experts, looking at people with colored glasses, deliberately make things difficult for Huazhong Automobile.
On the one hand, they require Huazhong Automobile to save energy and reduce emissions, forcing Huazhong Automobile to make a fuss about the weight of the body, and on the other hand, they are strict in the crash test.
And in this life, Huayang Power has become the first Tianchao automobile company to eat crabs in Europe, out of instinctive local protectionism, these bullshit experts, of course, are all carrying magnifying glasses, looking at Huayang Power's products.
Fortunately, Jin Xiaoqiang has a safety design concept that has been ahead of the world for more than ten years, and he also has the corresponding smelting technology to cooperate with him, so their Huayang Power car can fully achieve the requirements of light body, but high strength.
In some ways, they even surpass the big car manufacturers in Europe, the United States and the United States.
In this crash test, only Huayang Power's cars passed the European crash test standards and got a five-star evaluation.
At the same time, Ford, Volkswagen, and several other cars in the series failed to get five-star evaluations, which surprised many people.
