According to statistics, the age of the front-line employees in the freight industry is mainly between 36-55 years old, and the 70s and 80s have become the main force of truck drivers, and the post-90s truck drivers account for less than 30%. It can be seen that the profession of truck driver is not favored by young people, but Master Liu is an accident.
The son inherited his father's business, and xiao Liu embarked on the freight road after 00
Born in 2001, Xiao Liu, a card friend, just turned 21 this year, influenced by his father, Xiao Liu has been exposed to trucks since he was a child and is very interested in it, so he chose to enter the industry. Xiao Liu, who just turned 18 in 2019, obtained a C1 driver's license and then entered a courier outlet to help open a 4.2 meter.
Xiao Liu said that he entered the industry with a passion for blood, and how he wanted to enter the industry only to find that this line was quite deep. In 2020, it was the outbreak of the epidemic, when many industries, especially express delivery, were hit hard.
"At that time, the industry was sluggish, many bosses could not pay wages, even if some bosses had a little foundation, but they could not withstand others to warp goods, for example, you open 5k, another open 3k, it is conceivable that the bosses are choosing less" Xiao Liu Said.
Because the outlets often do not settle the freight, Xiao Liu jumped ship, and when he left, the boss still owed more than 2k freight without a settlement, and Xiao Liu, who was not deeply involved in the world, thought of not causing trouble, and did not go back to want it. After leaving his job, Xiao Liu came to a state-owned enterprise, although all the conditions were guaranteed, but because there were too many rules and regulations, he changed back to the outlet.
Xiao Liu is currently driving a BYD T5A, 4 meters 2 light truck, used for more than 1 year, it is worth noting that before this Xiao Liu drove a diesel car. We all know that slightly older truck drivers always have a kind of attachment to oil trucks, perhaps out of affection for oil trucks or out of the battery life of trams, everyone is somewhat prejudiced against trams.
Xiao Liu's entry time is not long, in a short period of time to experience the conversion from oil trucks to trams, which made me curious about "what young people who have just entered the industry have on new energy trucks", and also took this opportunity to interview Xiao Liu to see what he said.
Different fields The choice is also different
Talking about the topic of oil trams, Xiao Liu seemed to open the conversation box, he said: "The tram is easier to drive, the cost of the car is relatively less, such as the oil car is basically 8 ~ 9 mao a kilometer, the tram is better can do 6 ~ 7 mao a kilometer, charging is still quite convenient, is to wait a long time." In addition, the tram's restricted area pass is better than the oil car application, the annual inspection does not have so many processes, that is, the brake is much worse than the oil car, if it is to run the county town and a little farther away I prefer the oil car, but the tram in the city is better. ”
Xiao Liu's words perfectly describe the advantages and disadvantages of fuel vehicles and new energy, indeed as he said, new energy has always been a big problem in endurance, but different working conditions have different needs, for short and medium-distance new energy is indeed convenient.
The BYD T5A currently driven by Xiao Liu is matched with a lithium iron phosphate battery in terms of power, with a power of 84.4kWh, equipped with a permanent magnet synchronous motor with a maximum power of 100kW, a torque of 750N .m, and a cruising range of more than 200km under full load conditions. On the whole, it is indeed as Xiao Liu said, to meet the basic needs of urban use.
Another point is more controversial is the battery weight of new energy, the vehicle weight is heavier than the fuel vehicle, therefore, its cargo capacity is limited, from the power point of view, pure electric trucks are more suitable for light bubble goods, used to pull express delivery.
When it comes to what failures have been encountered in the use of pure electric trucks for more than a year, Xiao Liu said: "The most problems I encountered should be jumping and limping, and electronic handbrakes cannot be used, and because it is a new national standard car, its cab is slightly smaller, but because there is no gear handle in the middle of the automatic gear, it is convenient to sleep in the car, the layout and function in the cab are more convenient, and open the air conditioner to sleep without worrying about carbon monoxide poisoning." ”
BYD this model is positioned in short-distance freight, in the interior is mainly practical-oriented, and did not spend too much money to develop a new cab, saving the cost of the car, but also convenient for users to use, in general, this BYD T5 electric light truck performance is decent, he should have it, but also as Xiao Liu said, it does have some deficiencies.
Overall, Xiao Liu's evaluation of new energy trucks is not bad, does this mean that new energy has occupied a place in the hearts of young people? From the latest data, in 2021, the annual sales volume of new energy commercial vehicles will be 186,000 units, an increase of 54% year-on-year. In January 2022, the domestic new energy heavy-duty truck market sold a total of 2283 vehicles, a year-on-year surge of 1318%. This further shows that the new energy vehicle market has shifted from policy-driven to market-driven, and the new energy market will rise rapidly under the background of practicing the national dual-carbon target.
Editor's Note
Whether it is a fuel vehicle or a pure tram, according to the different use scenarios, the user's choice is also different, the user who chooses the tram has naturally calculated its drawbacks, and for the driver who has the need to run a long distance, the oil car will be more popular. However, in terms of policy, trams always have more advantages than oil vehicles, and in the future, if the endurance can be done well and the price is lowered, presumably new energy trucks will also have great achievements in the long-distance field.
