Compared with the more mature joint venture car of automobile technology, domestic cars have a certain deficiency in the corresponding technical strength due to the late start time, so in the early stage, they can only rely on foreign technology to seek development. Among them, Japanese cars have always been loved by car owners by virtue of their own fuel saving and driving resistance, so Japanese cars have also become the object of imitation that many independent brands loved to imitate in the early days.
However, it is curious that when the independent brand is just starting out, it is generally used to dismantle the Japanese engine for disassembly research, but now that more than ten years have passed, the Japanese engine has changed wave after wave, why can't the domestic engine still make the same excellent performance as the Japanese engine?
The reason why domestic engines cannot be played by The Japanese
First, technical barriers
Car companies are not fools, and it is impossible to put their own technology on the table for others to learn and imitate. Although the principle of the engine is very simple, simplicity does not mean that it is easy to do. Major car companies attach great importance to the protection of their core technologies, so they have applied for many patents for their own works internationally. Therefore, although the developers of independent brands have understood the principle of japanese engines, they cannot directly bypass the patent and use this technology directly. Coupled with the fact that it is difficult for domestic manufacturers to achieve high-precision parts processing, this also makes the development of domestic engines difficult.
Second, the trend of new energy vehicles
With the gradual increase in the world's emphasis on energy conservation and emission reduction and environmental protection, new energy vehicles have gradually become the mainstream choice of the automobile market. For example, the United Kingdom, Germany, France and other countries have announced the specific date of banning the sale of fuel vehicles early, and all established fuel vehicle companies have begun to invest in research and development in the field of new energy.
Therefore, for independent brands, instead of spending a lot of energy and funds to make a good engine, it is better to take advantage of the opportunity of everyone groping in the field of new energy vehicles to seize the opportunity, and strive to surpass those old car companies in the field of new energy vehicles and strengthen their product competitiveness.
What the self-owned brand learned through the Japanese engine
Of course, after all, the independent brand has studied the Japanese engine for such a long time, if you have not learned anything, it is indeed a bit unreasonable. For their own brands, they can already achieve a breakthrough in engine horsepower test data through their experience over the years. Although in practical applications, some car owners often say that the shortcomings of domestic engine noise and high fuel consumption still exist, but relatively speaking, the technical gap between domestic engines and joint venture car engines is no longer as insurmountable as before.
summary:
The reason why the performance of domestic engines is not as good as the engines of many joint venture cars is actually not directly related to the fact that the engine principle is not simple, but because for independent brands, they are no longer willing to spend time and money on fuel engines. If I had to give an example, it's like since the advent of smartphones on the market, there have been basically few people willing to use flip phones. Because the fuel engine has lost its strong competitiveness in the future market, even if the independent brand develops an engine with excellent performance, it is actually impossible to obtain corresponding benefits for a long time.
