Tomorrow (January 21), the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics special lane will be officially opened. At the same time, 330 Beijing EU7 pure electric vehicles and 212 hydrogen fuel bus Winter Olympic service support vehicles provided by BAIC Group will also be officially launched, mainly for the service guarantee work of the Beijing and Yanqing competition areas of the Winter Olympic Games.
One of the biggest features of the Winter Olympics is "green environmental protection", so the service guarantee vehicles are basically energy-saving and environmentally friendly new energy models.
In order to ensure the smooth holding of the Winter Olympic Games and the safety of personnel during the epidemic period, plastic film has been added to the front and rear rows of the Eu7 in Beijing to ensure the relative isolation of drivers and passengers, and the heating system has also been specially optimized to cope with the large-scale cold waves that may occur during the Spring Festival.
The Winter Olympics service guarantees that the car will be killed at least three times a day before the daily operation of the vehicle, the operation and collection of the car, and the charging process, including a high temperature killing, and under special circumstances, the number of daily killings will be increased according to the requirements of epidemic prevention and control, and charged in the designated parking spaces of the National Olympic Center venues.
If there is a vehicle problem, the BAIC Winter Olympic car service support team will first drag the vehicle to the specially selected "square cabin" for disinfection, then drag the vehicle to a special fixed-point maintenance site for secondary killing, and finally drive the vehicle into the paint room for a one-hour high temperature baking at a 60-degree temperature. After baking, the vehicle enters a dedicated maintenance area for maintenance work. During the maintenance period, all maintenance workers wear a full set of protective clothing, use special tools and accessories, and do not make contact with the outside world throughout the process.
It is reported that BAIC Group set up a special working group for the "Winter Olympic Project" in 2018, and in 2020, the R & D department led the special vehicle test, such as the slope of the slippery road, the slope of the wet and slippery road, and the turn of the wet and slippery road, and then there was the test of low temperature endurance, the test of low temperature start, the test of heating up at low temperature, and so on.
In order to actively prepare for the Winter Olympic Games, the BAIC Winter Olympic car service support team has carried out 4 continuous trainings, more than 30 scheduling meetings, 220 hours of inspection time, an average of 20,000 steps per day, and 350 trainees.
