Driven by the wave of electrification, major domestic independent brands have launched their own hybrid technology in 2021, such as BYD DM-i super hybrid, Great Wall Lemon hybrid DHT, Changan Blue Whale iDD hybrid and Geely Raytheon Power, there is a trend of hybrid market to win the world.
Chery, which has always been known as a "technical science and engineering man", also released its Kunpeng DHT super hybrid at the 2021 Shanghai Auto Show with years of research and development accumulation. Out of trust in technology Chery, this system has received widespread attention from consumers as soon as it was released. Just as the so-called "good meal is not afraid of late", on January 12, Chery Automobile held an exchange meeting in Shanghai, which deeply analyzed the Kunpeng DHT super hybrid for us, and announced that the first model equipped with this system, the Tiggo 8 PLUS Kunpeng e+ will announce the first price and rights on January 14.
The world's first full-featured hybrid configuration Kunpeng DHT platform integrates oil/electricity/hydrogen hybrid systems to match multiple energy forms and will meet the needs of different consumers in the future. The core technical advantages of Kunpeng DHT Super Hybrid are summed up as "3 Engine 3 Gear 9 Mode 11 Speed".
Maybe everyone doesn't quite understand this, so let's briefly introduce it. Among them, "3 engines" refers to the Kunpeng DHT super hybrid using a 1.5T hybrid special engine + dual motors to form a power source, and can realize the simultaneous drive of dual motors, simultaneous power generation, the maximum input torque of 510 Nm. "3 gears" refers to the Kunpeng DHT super hybrid with 3 physical gears, with dual motor collaboration, can bring higher efficiency, but also can cope with more working conditions, to achieve a balance between power and fuel consumption.
"9 mode 11 speed" is this system with 9 working modes and 11 combined gears, including single motor pure electric mode, dual motor pure electric mode, series increase range mode, engine direct drive mode, parallel drive mode, parking charging mode, driving charging mode, single motor brake energy recovery, dual motor brake recovery. Intelligent switching between 9 modes to achieve 11 combined gears, covering different car scenes such as starting, medium and low speed, elevated, overtaking, red light, congestion, highway, long-distance travel, mountain road, high-speed steering, ice/mud/sand and gravel.
The Tiggo 8 PLUS Kunpeng e+ two-wheel drive version model equipped with Kunpeng DHT Super Hybrid has a zero hundred acceleration time of 7 seconds, and the zero hundred acceleration time of the four-wheel drive version of the model is only 4.9 seconds, and the new car is equipped with a standard 100km pure electric endurance, the comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is only 1.0L, the comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 kilometers under the power deficit state is 5.0L, and the comprehensive mileage is more than 1000km. To meet the needs of consumers for short-distance electricity consumption and long-distance travel, they do not have to worry about mileage.
In addition to the Kunpeng SUPER Hybrid, the new Tiggo 8 PLUS Kunpeng e+ has also been improved for intelligent configuration and health performance. The new car upgrades the car machine system to the latest Xiaoqi Intelligent Butler 3.0, with three characteristics of deep learning, cloud life entertainment interconnection, natural voice interaction, and the whole system is equipped with Beidou + GPS dual-mode navigation system as standard, to avoid the situation of inaccurate navigation due to signal problems in the process of using the car. In addition, the Tiggo 8 PLUS Kunpeng e+ can also monitor energy dynamics in real time through a special app for hybridization.
Speaking of APPS, the Tiggo 8 PLUS Kunpeng e+ is a plug-in hybrid model that can make reservations for charging and travel in the car and mobile app. Appointment charging means that users can choose to automatically charge at night during the trough of electricity consumption, which saves the cost of the car to a certain extent, and the intelligent power replenishment function can also prevent the battery from losing power when the vehicle is not used for a long time, thereby prolonging the battery life. Booking a trip means that the user turns on the air conditioner in the car in advance every time he travels, and the appropriate temperature can be obtained after entering the car.
In addition, Tiggo 8 PLUS Kunpeng e+ also added the "Chery Net Cube Green Cockpit" function, the whole vehicle adopts European standard environmental protection technology and materials, and is equipped with RICSCS remote active cockpit self-cleaning system, which can filter ≥ 0.3μm particles/germs, and automatically open the air conditioner when it is about 15 meters away from the vehicle, and exchange air in the car, thereby eliminating odor, ensuring air quality in the car, and caring for user health.
As the star product of Chery Automobile, Tiggo 8 PLUS has been popular with its atmospheric appearance, ample space and good power performance, and its sales have gone all the way up since its listing in October 2020, and it has been favored by many consumers. In the past 2021, the sales volume of the Tiggo 8 series exceeded 160,000 units. As a new member of the family, Tiggo 8 PLUS Kunpeng e+ brings better power performance and higher fuel economy on the basis of ensuring the original product strength, thereby further improving the consumer experience. On January 14, the new car will announce the first-hand price and benefits, and I hope that the official can bring us more surprises.
