Chapter 257: Global Car War!
In November of the third year of the establishment of Xingchen Technology, the automobile war officially broke out.
Unlike IT companies such as mobile phones, the product cycle of the automotive industry is very long, and after a model is released, it often takes about ten years to sell before it is remodeled.
And mobile phone products almost every month there are new models come out, last year's new mobile phone, to this year will become the old model.
The business cycle is different, so the new product launch in the automotive industry is mainly held at the auto show.
November happened to be the most important Frankfurt Motor Show in Europe, so the Huaxia Automobile Alliance chose to start its global offensive at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
The three major electric vehicle groups, seven major electric motorcycle and bicycle groups, and at the same time announced that from now on, all traditional motors will be eliminated and the era of permanent magnet vector motors will be fully entered!
Along with this astonishing news, another epoch-making technology has been made public, that is, a new generation of in-wheel motors invented by Xingchen Technology.
The full name of this in-wheel motor is very complex, it is called permanent magnet vector dual-stator carbon fiber reduction DC in-wheel motor.
This is a name that will make the layman feel devastated, but there is no way, because the Xingchen hub motor really uses too many shocking black technologies.
The double stator technology greatly increases the effective power and torque.
Super NdFeB technology overcomes thermal demagnetization, a magnetic decay phenomenon that is almost considered unsolvable by the physical community.
There is also carbon fiber reduction gear technology, Xingchen Technology is worthy of playing with carbon materials, they abandon the traditional high-carbon steel, and use a large number of lightweight carbon fiber inside the hub motor, which greatly reduces the weight of the motor.
The high-precision compact body makes the structure of the motor unprecedented.
A large amount of free space is used to place multi-silicon composite heat sinks to solve the heating problem of the motor.
Anyway, once the in-wheel motor of Xingchen Technology came out, it not only stunned ordinary consumers, but also made scientific research departments around the world dumbfounded for a while.
An epoch-making new technology, of course, is very good, and even more awesome is a complete set of solutions!
As a responsible enterprise, Xingchen Technology has always been committed to helping partners and fighting competitors to the death.
Their in-wheel motors are simply tailor-made for transportation, from bicycles to cars, to large trucks, and even high-speed rail.
To put it simply, as long as it is something with wheels, the hub motor of Xingchen Technology is against the sky, 360 degrees without dead ends, and it will be won all!
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the whole world was shocked and crazy.
How small is this in-wheel motor, and how light is it?
After the use of carbon fiber material frame, silicon lithium battery, and in-wheel motor, the most common small car in Europe, that is, the vehicle of the Volkswagen Polo level, generally weighs about 700 kilograms, while the weight of the Polo is 1,500 kilograms, and the gap is really too big.
Some people may say that the lighter the car, the better.
This sentence is not true, the reason why some people think that the car is too light is not because of the handling problem, but because of the high-speed stability problem.
High-speed driving stability, in fact, has nothing to do with dead weight, only about fluid mechanics, that is, wind resistance.
A supercar like Ferrari weighs just over a ton, but it can run to a speed of 300 kilometers per hour, and it runs very steadily, and some cars with a weight of two tons can float at a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour.
There is only one reason for this phenomenon, and that is fluid mechanics design.
A car with a truly powerful fluid design will only be faster and more stable, because the wind resistance will actively generate downforce, which will cause the tires to press steadily against the ground, creating a high coefficient of friction.
Which company has the best fluid mechanics in the world?
Xingchen Technology, of course.
The essence of the Kármán vortex power generation array is fluid mechanics.
Applying the fluid mechanics experience of Xingchen Technology to the field of automobile design, it is easy to solve the high-speed stability.
All in all, it is an eternal truth that companies with technology can do whatever they want.
Xingchen Technology solves stability with fluid mechanics, self-weight with hub motors, power with permanent magnet vector technology, structural stiffness with carbon fiber materials, energy with lithium batteries and silicon lithium batteries, and 72-tube electronic control systems to solve electrical management.
All these black technologies are loaded into electric vehicles, and the core competitiveness of the Huaxia Electric Vehicle Alliance has been formed, which far exceeds the technical level of competitors.
A fateful war has officially begun on the land of Europe.
In the field of high-end cars, the East Asia Group has Volvo, a long-established brand from Northern Europe that is known for its safety and winter snow performance.
Volvo's main rivals are the three major German luxury car brands, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, as well as the top Japanese and American car brands, Lexus, Cadillac, Lincoln, Infiniti and so on.
In the field of supercars, East Asia Group strongly promoted Lotus, which is an old brand in the United Kingdom, which has built sports cars for hundreds of years and has a long history, and was acquired by Malaysia's Proton Group a few years ago.
In June 2017, Geely Group acquired Proton for 1.2 billion yuan, so the Lotus brand also fell into the hands of Dongya Group.
Lotus's main competitors are global sports car giants, Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati and many more.
In the field of ordinary civilian sedans and civil SUVs, Dongya Group has launched Geely, Lingyun, Proton, Lynk & Co, EY, five major brands, against all the world's low-end car giants, what Toyota, Volkswagen, Honda, Logo, all benchmarking.
Finally, there is the BYD brand, which has not died out, but has been used by the East Asia Group as a bus product line, and the Great Wall brand has been used for box trucks and pickup trucks.
Together with the London Black Taxi, which specializes in high-quality taxis, the LEVC brand, the three of them have supported the front of East Asia Group in the field of commercial vehicles.
Anyway, from the current point of view, East Asia Group has basically achieved full coverage, except for the ultra-luxury brands that do not benchmark Rolls-Royce and Bentley, from high-end to low-end, to commercial and freight, there is a corresponding battlefield in every field.
Huaxia Automobile Group, which represents the military, took a different route, they cut off the brands of GAC Trumpchi and SAIC Roewe, leaving only Changan and Dongfeng.
Changan focuses on commercial cars and SUVs, while Dongfeng has a commercial vehicle and truck product line.
At present, Huaxia Automobile Group still lacks a high-end product similar to Volvo, and they now have two sets of plans, one is to restart the Hongqi brand, and the other is to acquire Jaguar and Land Rover from India's Tata Group.
The advantage of restarting the Hongqi brand is that it continues the inheritance of domestic high-end brands.
It's a pity that the trust is not human, FAW is incompetent, and the brand is completely messed up.
If it is restarted, everything will have to start from scratch, not to mention that foreigners don't know about Hongqi cars, and the younger generation of Huaxia doesn't know much, and there is no lowest popularity, only lower.
The benefits of acquiring Jaguar and Land Rover are obvious, they have a ready-made global sales network, good global popularity, and can directly enter countries around the world.
But according to Luo Jia's understanding, the military may choose to restart the Hongqi brand.
There's no way, soldiers, there is a kind of stubbornness in their bones that they don't admit defeat.
The commercial vehicle group has the lowest output among the three major groups in China, but they are definitely not weak, because the profit of commercial vehicles is very high.
Sinotruk's 40-ton semi-trailer trucks have a unit price of millions at every turn, and the profit can reach more than 300,000 yuan, which is more than selling 20 Changan cars.
In addition to Sinotruk, the commercial group also has Yutong!
People who don't know the field of buses, it's hard to imagine how good Yutong is, this company itself, accounting for 45% of the country's commercial bus sales!
A family can top half of the country, it is Yutong, and the bus is also a big guy with a million selling price at every turn, and the profit is also very amazing.
On behalf of the national team's commercial group, it is still being integrated, in terms of trucks, they use two brands of Sinotruk and Jiefang, and the bus takes Yutong as the main force and uses Jinlong to play high-end.
In addition, they also have Shantui, XCMG and other engineering vehicle product lines, all of which are high-profit big guys, and it is also foreseeable that they will enter the field of civilian cars in the future.
In any case, a car war that will surely go down in history officially kicked off in November of the third year of the establishment of Xingchen Technology!
