Chapter 800: Crossing the Vehicle
For the main consumer groups in the micro-surface market, they may not pay much attention to the aesthetics of the car, and they do not pay much attention to the handling and comfort of the car.
The most important thing for consumers who buy a model at this price is that it is affordable, because the main purpose of many consumers who buy this model may be to be able to transport more goods.
Therefore, for consumers of this kind of car, practicality is the most important, so Dora fast running has become the essence of this kind of car.
But for 'international design masters' like Jin Xiaoqiang, as well as famous domestic car brands like Huayang Power, they can't just demand themselves, after all, just paying attention to Dora fast running is too low-end for Huayang Power.
This is not conducive to the construction and cultivation of the brand image in the hearts of consumers at this level, so Jin Xiaoqiang asked the design department to design this car at the beginning, the most basic requirement is to increase the car's handling performance, ride comfort, and beautiful appearance on the basis of Dora Run.
Especially in the shape of the car, Jin Xiaoqiang's requirements can be said to be extremely strict, after all, the shape of the car is beautiful, which has become a market card of Huayang Power, now in the domestic automobile market, if you talk about the shape of the car, it is estimated that any consumer as long as they mention it, they will definitely think of Huayang Power first. After all, their models are relatively speaking, but they are currently the most beautiful models on the car market.
In Jin Xiaoqiang's view, even if they Huayang Power wants to enter the lowest-end automobile market. It is also not possible to relax the requirements for yourself because the entry threshold of this market is too low.
Although the barrier to entry in this market is very low, it is abroad. Especially in Japan, a country where micro-aspects are also prevalent, you look at other people's designs, and then look at our domestic designs. It can be described as very different.
Therefore, if Huayang Power wants to become the real hegemon of the domestic market, it cannot relax in any detail.
And for those rural consumers, in fact, they don't like beautiful cars, if they can meet their most basic Dora fast running needs, but also make the car beautiful enough, of course, they are willing to pay for such a model.
Jin Xiaoqiang did not make a move on the micro-face design this time, he handed over the design to the car shape design team led by Wuyun Gaowa.
This team, Jin Xiaoqiang, has been cultivated for several years. It has always been a shape design division led by dark clouds, but there are not many people with real experience in automobile design.
After all, the domestic automobile design link is really too much worse than that of foreign countries, so Jin Xiaoqiang had to open his own gold finger at that time, which is hot for the people of this design division. They can only follow Jin Xiaoqiang, every time they get Jin Xiaoqiang's drawings, they are responsible for completing the later modeling work and learning Jin Xiaoqiang's design concept.
After so many years of indoctrination and training, the people in this division have fully grown. So Jin Xiaoqiang gave them this task as an assessment assignment for them.
When Jin Xiaoqiang, accompanied by dark clouds, saw the team she led and designed a purely self-designed micro-face, he couldn't help but be a little shocked.
What the hell is going on, are there any of these designers who have been reborn like themselves? Why, because this car looks very familiar, isn't this the V27 that Dongfeng Xiaokang launched a few years later, which is known as a little Hummer? …,
Speaking of the domestic micro-surface market, for the time being, there is no doubt that Wuling Motors is the world, although the rural automobile market has also developed rapidly in recent years, but there are not many companies that really attach importance to this market.
In this market, the main ones are Wuling, which is the cooperation between SAIC and GM, and there are Jinbei and Songhuajiang in the north, and the other is Changan Automobile.
But the current overlord in this market is undoubtedly SAIC Wuling, which has been operating in this market for many years.
In fact, if you tell the truth, SAIC Wuling's products are not necessarily much better than the products of several other brands, but they win in that they entered the market early and have a wide range of distribution channels, so they can stand firm in the hegemony of this market.
Later, after the state introduced various preferential policies for cars to the countryside, Chang'an increased investment, Dongfeng was not willing to be lonely, joined the war group, and Songhuajiang's maiden Hafei also made adjustments, resulting in chaos in this market.
But in the end, after several struggles and fights, in the end, Wuling and Chang'an had the last laugh, firmly occupying the largest two shares of this market, as for the well-off series launched by Dongfeng, as well as the Xiaobawang series launched by Hafei later, they can only occupy a small share.
As a person who has come over, Jin Xiaoqiang also has a considerable understanding of this micro-noodle market, because there were many emergency vehicles in the car repair shop where he was located back then, as well as delivery vehicles, which he himself drove a lot.
To say that what impressed him the most, of course, is the V27 that was later launched by Dongfeng Xiaokang, not for anything else, just because this car is completely different from other micro-faces, it is enough to attract attention.
Unfortunately, because other details were not done in place, and there was nothing too special in terms of performance and transportation, this car did not achieve much success in the market.
But no matter what, when this car was born, his eye-catching appearance still surprised Jin Xiaoqiang, after all, compared with other domestic shapes of the same micro-face, this car looks like it is full of personality, and even very Japanese-style, that kind of finely crafted style.
So although this car was not very successful in the market in the future, Jin Xiaoqiang still appreciated this car.
Now he suddenly saw this car appear in front of his eyes as if he was like himself, how could Jin Xiaoqiang not be surprised?
The small micro surface produced in front of Huayang Power, some exterior details, and the car logo hanging on the front of the car, are a little different from the Dongfeng Xiaokang V27 he drove in his previous life, and the others are simply the same.
The wide chrome design of the front face grille shows a full domineering and tough guy effect, and the square headlights are equipped with a circular assembly layout, which looks rigid and has a trace of spirituality.
The nine-spoke aluminum alloy wheels suddenly opened up the taste gap with other micro-facets, coupled with the army-green paint and a set of original off-road equipment, which immediately made this micro-surface look full of star style.
Just looking at the appearance, Jin Xiaoqiang was already interested, so he immediately asked several designers for the keys, opened the door and got on a prototype car, and started a test drive.
As the graduation work of the School of Design, this micro-face has actually been designed for a while, because this car is from the hands of these design students led by Wuyun Gaowa, so in many design links can not be as perfect as the models "designed" by Jin Xiaoqiang, after all, the models "designed" by Jin Xiaoqiang are in the later generations, after the test of thousands of tempers, but this micro-face is not. …,
Therefore, after the design of this car was finalized last year, it has been doing various road tests and extreme experiments to verify the performance of this car.
After that, it made rectifications in a series of problems tested in the road test, and it was not until a few days ago that the various parameters of the production model were completely finalized.
Today, Jin Xiaoqiang is driving the stereotyped product of this car, which is divided into four models as a whole, and there are two models of engines, one is a 1.0L engine and the other is a 1.3L engine.
However, unlike ordinary micro-surfaces, Huayang Power can meet its own production in many components, so the cost of the whole vehicle is reduced to a very low level.
In this way, the students of Huayang Power have worked the configuration of the engine, such as the top 1.3L version of the engine driven by Jin Xiaoqiang, which actually uses a double overhead camshaft and a 16-valve design, and after the tuning of these designers, the maximum power of this engine can reach 90 horsepower, and the maximum peak torque can reach 140 Nm.
I think that only Wuling Motors, in the face of the encirclement and suppression of many manufacturers, had to launch such a 1.3L double overhead camshaft gasoline engine, but at that time, the peak power of Wuling's 1.3L engine was only 82 horsepower, and the peak torque was only 108 Nm.
But it was by relying on such an engine that Wuling reversed the passive situation in one fell swoop, and until later, they relied on this engine to give them the name of the small and energetic people, and firmly occupied the throne of the sales champion in the micro-surface market.
And the birth of Wuling's well-known LAQ engine in the micro-surface market, but it will be a few years later, but now the micro-surface of Huayang Power has been equipped with an engine that is more advanced than him, and it seems that Wuling's micro-surface road is destined to be a cup.
But Jin Xiaoqiang didn't think about it so much at all, at this time he was driving this Huayang Power micro-face, galloping on the small test site outside, he had driven a lot of such micro-surfaces in his previous life, but there was really no micro-surface that could make him feel such pleasure.
