At the end of 2021, the penetration rate of new energy vehicles in the Chinese market reached 20%, which undoubtedly shocked the entire industry and undoubtedly verified the vigor and future of new energy vehicles. In the new and vast track of new energy, hybridization is undoubtedly a key link.
In the face of the fiercely competitive market atmosphere, GAC Trumpchi has long had a layout to deal with, in addition to the strong advent of the Trumpchi GS8 dual engine version, Zhang Yuesai, general manager of GAC Passenger Vehicle, said that in 2022, the GAC Trumpchi Shadow Leopard Hybrid Edition will also officially usher in the listing.
First, the fashion shape continues the sense of beauty
At the 2021 Guangzhou Auto Show, the GAC Trumpchi Shadow Leopard Hybrid Edition appeared in front of everyone's eyes for the first time, and unlike new versions such as the track version and the Galaxy Fighter Version, the Shadow Leopard Hybrid Edition continued the appearance of the fuel vehicle and only made some adjustments in the details.
Some people say that Shadow Leopard can achieve orders of more than 10,000 results after three months of listing, and his sports and fashion appearance and advanced and sharp design sense are inseparable.
As early as 2018, the results of China's automobile sales satisfaction research report confirmed that the main group of car buyers is the post-80s and post-90s, accounting for up to 80%, and for the younger generation, the appearance of the car is the most important purchasing power.
Shadow Leopard Hybrid Edition follows the design appearance of the fuel version, which adopts the design language of "light plastic surface", based on the two design languages of GAC Trumpchi Lingyun Wing and Light and Shadow Sculpture, and the angular body lines and wing-style front face shape are very distinctive.
The tough waistline design, slipback shape, and low center of gravity, short front overhang body body create a very sporty atmosphere, and the HYBRID logo is added to the rear of the car to indicate the identity. In terms of interior, the light blue interior color matching has been added, which is more in line with the positioning of new energy vehicles, and the dual screen design and carbon fiber pattern have also been retained, which perfectly fits the eclectic and personalized preferences of young people, and also makes countless people "see him at first sight" and even "never forget".
Second, the quality of appearance is indispensable
Although high value can attract the first attention, only high quality can keep customers around. Judging from the existing market results, if you want to create a successful product, the appearance, quality, cost performance, and market reputation are indispensable.
In the Shadow Leopard Hybrid Version, we can see the courage of GAC Trumpchi to fight hard, and the GS8 Hybrid Version is different, the Shadow Leopard Hybrid Edition does not follow Toyota's hybrid technology, and is expected to be equipped with GAC Trumpchi's self-developed GMC 2.0 Hybrid System.
According to the current news, the system integrates the most advanced technology of GAC Trumpchi, which is composed of the fourth generation 2.0ATK engine + GMC2.0 electromechanical coupling system, and the core of the GMC hybrid system is the third generation GMC transmission, which is an integrated dual-motor multi-gear hybrid transmission. It can realize a variety of energy distribution modes such as pure electric, range, hybrid, and direct fuel drive, with a thermal utilization coefficient of up to 96.5% and an engine thermal efficiency of 42.1%.
Third, the fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is expected to be as low as 3.8L
As we all know, the higher the thermal efficiency, the higher the fuel economy of this car, according to the current information, it can be speculated that the comprehensive fuel consumption of the Shadow Leopard Hybrid Version equipped with this system can reach a minimum of 3.6L/100km, and the acceleration time of 100 kilometers is 7.3 seconds, but the power system data is currently estimated and needs to be confirmed after listing.
If the oil consumption of the Shadow Leopard Hybrid Version of NEDC is controlled at about 3.6L, it will achieve a huge breakthrough in technology, and the fuel consumption is lower than the fuel consumption of 4.2L of corolla's double engine 100 kilometers. In the comparison of hybrid models at the same level, BYD's current hybrid system has achieved a fuel consumption level of 3.8L per 100 kilometers, and whether the Shadow Leopard Hybrid Version can bring us surprises needs to be further tested.
Write at the end:
Starting from the new GAC Trumpchi GS8 Hybrid Edition, GAC Trumpchi has embarked on a new path of hybrid reform. The advent of the Shadow Leopard Hybrid Edition is not just a new car release, its GMC 2.0 hybrid system is the top priority.
GMC Hybrid System - A set of high-end hybrid technology developed entirely by GAC. It is expected to cover all GAC Trumpchi models, and the comprehensive fuel consumption of each car equipped with this system can reach about 3.6L/100 km. GAC Trumpchi, which has the support of technology, will continue to expand the fields of HEV and PHEV in the future, and bravely move forward on the road of hybridization.
