With the rapid development of new energy vehicles and the blessing of various favorable policies, consumers' acceptance of new energy vehicles is increasing. However, looking at the automotive market, there are still many car owners who have doubts about intelligent new energy vehicles: can the quality withstand the test? Can you rely on power and safety?
Xiaopeng Automobile as a new force brand of car manufacturing, not only in intelligence and technology investment, the control of product quality is also unambiguous, based on the confidence in the product, and the attitude of responsibility for users, Xiaopeng Automobile launched a limit test again and again, confirming the high quality of Xiaopeng Automobile.
Previously, in order to truly test the product quality of Xiaopeng Automobile under extreme conditions, Xiaopeng P7 opened a continuous seawater spray test of 23 days and more than 550 hours. Recently, Xiaopeng P5 has completed the winter extreme cold test, and the third-party authoritative organization China Automobile Research Automobile Inspection Center has assumed the responsibility of evaluation and testing, according to the report issued by them, both models have completed the test with excellent results.
With the most stringent test standards, the durability quality of Xiaopeng Automobile is tested in an all-round way, which confirms that Xiaopeng Automobile runs through research and development and manufacturing, and breaks out of a kangzhuang avenue with consistent high quality in such a situation, so that "Pengpai Quality" has become the exclusive label of Xiaopeng Automobile.
Independent research and development in the details of the "see the real chapter"
On the afternoon of November 22, at the 751 D PARK Power Plaza in Beijing, the in-white body of a mass-produced version of the Xiaopeng P7 finally came out of the bath after 23 consecutive days and about 550 hours of uninterrupted seawater.
As we all know, seawater contains a rich variety of salt compounds and electrolytes, which will cause serious corrosion to the metal parts of the car. In general, water-soaked iron objects are placed in humid air for more than 36 hours to produce rust spots. The unique chemical properties of seawater have a strong corrosive effect on metals.
Especially for the body-in-white, connecting the various parts requires the composition of the solder joints. For the body of the high-strength steel and aluminum mixture, the welding is more difficult, and the cavitation of the sea water on the solder joint will be more serious, and this test also simulates the aging of the body after many years of use by consumers.
After the end of the test, the Automobile Research Center conducted a comprehensive inspection of the body-in-white body of the Xiaopeng P7 and issued an authoritative verification report.
The report shows that according to the ISO 4628 "Grading Method after Performance Test of Color paint and varnish coating" series of international standards for inspection and evaluation, the body-in-white of Xiaopeng P7 has a sub-high grade 1 (rust area < 0.05%) except for the front cabin parts and the floor parts behind the trunk, the rest are the highest grade - 0. The overall rust-free area of Xiaopeng P7 body exceeded 99.9%, and it successfully passed the seawater spray limit test and met the requirements of anti-corrosion experiments.
To achieve such results is also inseparable from the strength of Xiaopeng Automobile in manufacturing technology, in the face of consumers concerned about the corrosion resistance and anti-aging problems of vehicles, Xiaopeng Automobile is "polishing" in many places that are not easy to be insightful, but play a key role.
The first is the steel and aluminum hybrid body, taking the Xiaopeng P7 in this test as an example, using aluminum parts such as aluminum cover and cast aluminum shock absorbing tower seat. At the same time, a large number of double-sided hot-plated pure zinc steel plates are used in the body parts, the electrophoretic paint with ultra-high swimming permeability is used, the dry and wet areas are divided into reasonable dry and wet areas, and a large number of cavity anti-corrosion glue is applied at the bottom of the body, so that Xiaopeng P7 can navigate in the test under such layers of protection.
See the real chapter from the subtleties, if you want to launch new energy vehicles with industry competitiveness, the product quality must be guaranteed. This test has created a number of "firsts", and it is also the first time that the body-in-white test has been brought to the public, so that the public has an intuitive understanding of the car test, and this is also a public inspection of Xiaopeng Automobile's "Pengpai Quality" facing users, bringing an experience beyond expectations.
Extreme cold test performance is no longer "anxious"
In the face of the extreme cold of winter, Xiaopeng Automobile has taken another test close to winter cars to dispel consumers' "mileage anxiety" about winter electric vehicles.
For electric vehicle owners, often in the winter, the original anxious endurance is directly folded up, and the warm air is more luxurious, which is why the early electric vehicle owners were ridiculed by fuel owners to buy an "electric daddy".
The temperature in winter is too low, the battery activity is reduced, which will inhibit the discharge ability of the battery, which will affect not only the mileage, but also the dynamics of the vehicle and energy recovery. In order to avoid such a situation, an efficient battery thermal management system becomes a necessity.
On December 23, Xiaopeng P5 bravely broke through the extremely cold experimental cabin test, focusing on the real pain points of low temperature start and low temperature defrosting in the user's winter driving, to lower than the test temperature of the national standard, and to amplify the difficulty of the experiment to challenge the limit.
This test adopts a lower test temperature than the national standard: car companies take the national standard temperature (-18 °C) as the test temperature when doing low temperature defrosting, and the Xiaopeng P5 challenges the test at a more stringent -23 °C temperature lower than the national standard; the extreme cold start and defrosting are faster than the national standard requirements.
Such excellent results can be achieved thanks to the development of a more intelligent safety thermal management system developed by Xiaopeng Automobile, which connects the motor waterway cycle and the battery waterway circulation through the four-way valve to achieve a series connection, realize the motor waste heat recovery to heat the battery, and improve the working temperature of the battery in the low-temperature environment. To achieve -30 °C -55 °C ultra-wide use temperature range, according to the needs of the power system, so that the power system is always in the best working temperature range, to ensure the thermal safety of the power system, shorten the charging time, increase the mileage.
And Xiaopeng P5 is also the first model equipped with heat pump air conditioning at the same level, but the more interesting point is that the heat pump air conditioner of Xiaopeng P5 also combines the liquid cooling system of the battery, while using the residual heat of the battery and the motor to heat the car after normal driving, the official called X-HP intelligent heat management system, quite a bit of fuel car relies on the engine waste heat heating meaning, and this improvement can also make the winter mileage of Xiaopeng P5 increase by 15%.
It can be said that Xiaopeng Automobile uses its own technical advantages to make up for the inherent disadvantages of electric vehicles in low-temperature environments through vehicle optimization, and truly allows all users to use them boldly in winter, and uses actual performance to dispel consumer doubts.
Submit satisfactory "answer sheets" with high quality
After repeated rigorous tests, Xiaopeng Motors submitted high-quality answer sheets to the market again and again, and also won a veritable honor.
Recently, in J.D. In the 2021 China New Energy Product Attractiveness Index Study (NEV-APEAL) released by Power this year, Xiaopeng P7 won the first place in the charm index of the medium-sized pure electric market, and was also the first model in the industry to obtain this result; in addition, in the 2021 J.D. Power China New Energy Vehicle New Energy Vehicle Quality Research (NEV-IQS), Xiaopeng G3 also won the first place in the quality ranking of new car quality of new energy vehicle compact models.
Behind the double material champion is the "intelligent and reliable" quality reputation of Xiaopeng Automobile, and frequent certification and affirmation by authoritative institutions is also the truest embodiment of Pengpai's quality.
In addition, Xiaopeng Motors insists on bringing innovation to autonomous driving, intelligent networking and core automotive systems through independent research and development, with leading software, data and hardware technologies as the core, and bringing popular smart electric vehicles to Chinese consumers.
Quality assurance is the foundation of brand development, and it is also the focus that cannot be ignored by discerning car companies. If you want to play a brand reputation, vehicle quality is the first. Especially for the newly emerging new forces car companies, how to break the user's quality doubts about the new models, the most intuitive presentation of the excellent quality of the vehicle, Xiaopeng Automobile with a number of extreme tests, so that consumers can effectively perceive the excellent quality, which is also Xiaopeng Automobile sales can rise steadily, becoming the most important reason for the new force head car companies.
Such as the above performance, let people feel that Xiaopeng Automobile's "Pengpai quality" DNA that has always run through research and development and manufacturing is becoming more and more prominent.
