Technological Hegemony

Chapter 257: Global Car Wars!

In November of the third year since the founding of Xingchen Technology, the automobile war officially broke out.

Unlike IT companies such as mobile phones, the product cycle in the automotive industry is very long. After a model is released, it often takes about ten years to sell it before changing the model.

And mobile phone products have new models coming out almost every month. Last year's new mobile phones will become old models this year.

Business cycles are different, so new product launches in the auto industry are mainly held at auto shows.

November happens to be the most important Frankfurt Motor Show in Europe, so China Automobile Alliance chose to start its global offensive at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

The three major electric vehicle groups and the seven major electric motorcycle and bicycle groups announced at the same time that all traditional motors will be eliminated from now on, and they will enter the era of permanent magnet vector motors in an all-round way!

Along with this astonishing news, another epoch-making technology has been made public, which is a new generation of in-wheel motors invented by Xingchen Technology.

The full name of this hub motor is very complicated, it is called a permanent magnet vector double stator carbon fiber reduction DC hub motor.

This is a name that will make a layman feel overwhelmed, but there is no way, because the star hub motor really uses too many shocking black technologies.

Double stator technology greatly increases effective power and torque.

Super NdFeB technology overcomes thermal demagnetization, a magnetic decay phenomenon that is almost considered unsolvable by the physics community.

There is also carbon fiber reduction gear technology. Xingchen Technology is indeed a master of carbon materials. They abandon the traditional high-carbon steel and apply a large amount of lightweight carbon fiber to the interior of the hub motor, which greatly reduces the weight of the motor.

The high-precision compact body makes the structure of the motor more compact than ever before.

The large amount of free space is used to place polysilicon composite heat sinks to solve the heating problem of the motor.

Anyway, once Star Technology's in-wheel motor came out, it not only stunned ordinary consumers, but also stunned scientific research departments all over the world as if struck by lightning.

An epoch-making new technology is of course very good, and what is even better is a complete set of solutions!

As a responsible company, Stellar Technology has always taken it as its duty to help partners and beat competitors to death.

Their in-wheel motors are tailor-made for vehicles, from bicycles to cars, to large trucks, and even high-speed trains, all of which can be used.

To put it simply, as long as it is something with wheels, the in-wheel motor of Star Technology is against the sky, 360 degrees without dead ends, and they can all be won!

One stone stirred up thousands of waves, and the whole world was shocked and crazy.

How small and light is this hub motor?

After adopting carbon fiber frame, silicon-lithium battery, and hub motor, the most common small car in Europe, that is, the Volkswagen POLO, generally has a self-weight of about 700 kilograms, and the self-weight of POLO is 1,500 kilograms. , the gap is really too big.

Some people may say that the lighter the car, the better.

This sentence is right or wrong. The reason why some people think that a car is too light is not because of handling problems, but because of high-speed stability problems.

High-speed driving stability, in fact, has nothing to do with its own weight, but only with fluid mechanics, that is, wind resistance.

A super sports car like Ferrari weighs only a little more than one ton, but it can run at a speed of 300 kilometers per hour, and it runs very stably. Some small cars with a self-weight of two tons will float when the speed reaches more than 100 kilometers per hour. Things are not heavier and more stable.

There is only one reason for this phenomenon, and that is the hydrodynamic design.

A car with a truly powerful fluid design will only go faster and more stable, because the wind resistance will actively generate downforce, making the tires press the ground stably, resulting in a high coefficient of friction.

In this world, which company is the most powerful in fluid mechanics?

Of course it is Star Technology.

The essence of the Karman vortex street power generation array is fluid mechanics.

Applying the fluid mechanics experience of Star 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.

Star Technology uses fluid mechanics to solve stability, uses hub motors to solve self-weight, uses permanent magnet vector technology to solve power, uses carbon fiber materials to solve structural stiffness, uses lithium batteries and silicon-lithium batteries to solve energy, and uses 72-tube electronic control system to solve electrical problems. manage.

Putting all these black technologies into electric vehicles has formed the core competitiveness of the China Electric Vehicle Alliance, which far exceeds the technical level of competitors. It is not a certain technology that is leading, but several core technologies are leading in an all-round way!

A fate-determining war has officially begun on the continent of Europe.

In the field of high-end cars, the East Asia Group has Volvo, an old brand from northern Europe, known for its safety and winter ice and snow performance.

Volvo's main rivals are the three major German luxury car brands, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi, as well as top Japanese and American car brands, such as Lexus, Cadillac, Lincoln, and Infiniti.

In the field of super sports cars, East Asia Group strongly promotes Lotus. Lotus is an old British brand that has built sports cars for hundreds of years.

In June 2017, Geely Group acquired Proton for 1.2 billion yuan, so the Lotus brand also fell into the hands of East Asia Group.

The main competitors of Lotus are the global sports car giants, Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati and so on.

In the field of ordinary civilian cars and civilian SUVs, East Asia Group has launched Geely, Lingyun, Proton, Lynk \u0026 Co, and WEY, five major brands, to compete against all mid- and low-end car giants in the world, such as Toyota, Volkswagen, Honda, and Peugeot, all for benchmarking .

Finally, there is the BYD brand. This brand has not died out, but has been used by the East Asia Group for the bus product line, and the Great Wall brand has been used for box trucks and pickups.

Coupled with London Black Taxi, which specializes in high-quality taxis, that is, the LEVC brand, the three of them support the front of the East Asia Group in the field of commercial vehicles.

Anyway, from the current point of view, the East Asia Group has basically achieved full coverage. Except for the ultra-luxury brands that do not compete with Rolls-Royce and Bentley, from high-end to low-end, to commercial and freight, every field has a corresponding battlefield.

Huaxia Automobile Group, which represents the military, took another route. They cut off brands such as GAC Trumpchi and SAIC Roewe, leaving only Changan and Dongfeng.

Changan focuses on civilian cars and SUVs, while Dongfeng focuses on commercial vehicles and trucks.

At present, Huaxia Automobile Group still lacks a high-end product similar to Volvo. They now have two 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. Back then, Hongqi cars were also very good, dedicated for military parades, and the chairman's car.

It's a pity that it was entrusted to no one, and FAW was incompetent, which completely screwed up this brand. It was clearly a king bomb, but it was beaten to pieces.

If it is restarted, everything will have to start from scratch. Not to mention that foreigners don’t know Hongqi Automobile, the younger generation in China doesn’t know much about it. There is no lowest level of popularity, only lower level.

The benefits of acquiring Jaguar and Land Rover are obvious. They have a ready-made global sales network and a good global reputation, and they can directly enter the world when they are brought over.

However, according to Luo Jia's knowledge, the military may choose to restart the Hongqi brand.

There is no way, soldiers, there is a stubbornness in their bones that refuses to 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.

The unit price of Sinotruk's 40-ton semi-trailer trucks can easily exceed one million yuan, and the profit can reach more than 300,000 yuan, which is more than that of selling 20 Changan cars.

In addition to Sinotruk, the commercial group also has Yutong!

Those who do not know the field of buses can hardly imagine how good Yutong is. The company itself accounts for 45% of the national commercial bus sales!

A family that can top half of the country is Yutong, and the bus is also a big guy with a price of one million, and the profit is also amazing.

The commercial group representing the national team is still in the process of integration. In terms of trucks, they use Sinotruk and Jiefang two brands. The bus uses Yutong as the main force, and King Long is used for high-end.

In addition, they also have construction vehicle product lines such as Shantui and XCMG, all of which are high-profit big guys. It is also foreseeable to enter the field of civilian cars in the future.

In any case, a car war that will surely go down in the annals of history officially kicked off in November, the third year since Star Technology was founded!
