It is understood that the current global new energy vehicle market is extremely hot. According to the China Automobile Association, China's new energy vehicle sales will reach 5 million units this year, an increase of 47% year-on-year. In the next 5 years, new energy vehicles will usher in explosive growth. Based on the new era of hybridization, Geely Automobile has increased its investment in research and development of new energy and accelerated the transformation to new energy.
In the context of high oil prices and the long cycle of pure trams, hybrid models have become a new choice for car purchases.

On the other hand, the Hoshigoku L Quake Oil Hybrid Edition is equally outstanding in terms of performance. Thanks to the Leishen Zhiqing Hi X DHT Pro 3-speed hybrid electric drive, in terms of energy saving, performance and intelligence, it realizes the comprehensive transcendence of hybrid technology, bringing users the "new hybrid" to subvert the old hybrid, and comprehensively surpassing the first-class intelligent hybrid experience of the Japanese two fields.
The key to outstanding performance lies in the investment in technology, and relevant data show that in 2021, Geely Automobile's R&D investment totaled 5.5 billion yuan, an increase of 16.1% year-on-year, and the total R&D investment in the past five years was 25.6 billion yuan. In terms of key technologies, the RYSIAN Hi X is the only hybrid system that can achieve FOTA upgrades, with up to 20 intelligent driving modes.
So, as geely's first blockbuster model to fully open electrification and transform in the new energy era, how does the economy and performance parameters of the Xingyue L Raytheon Oil-Electric Hybrid Edition perform?
According to the introduction at the press conference, the Xingyue L Raytheon Oil-Electric Hybrid Edition is equipped with the world's first mass-produced 3-speed hybrid electric drive transmission DHT Pro, and the DH15 hybrid special engine with a thermal efficiency of 43.32%, the system comprehensive power is 180kW, the maximum wheel end torque is 4920N m, the 100 km acceleration is 7.9s, the NEDC fuel consumption is 4.3L/100km, and the longest endurance is more than 1300km, which is the HEV model with the strongest power, the lowest fuel consumption and the longest endurance in the same class.
As Fan Junyi, general manager of Geely Automobile Sales Company, said at the press conference, Geely put the best Thor hybrid technology on the Star Yue L, the flagship SUV of China Star, to achieve "good and good", that is, to let users say goodbye to the "old hybrid" of mileage anxiety, farewell to the "old hybrid" of the ice and snow nest, bid farewell to the powerless "old hybrid" of the plateau, and open a "new vision of products" of the hybrid model.
The reporter noted that in terms of the intelligent network connection that young consumers pay attention to, the Xingyue L Thor Oil-Electric Hybrid Edition is equipped with the Geely Galaxy OS Thor Customized Edition, bringing a new intelligent interactive experience.

Geely's new brand image store, from pre-sales to after-sales, has established exclusive star service, reshaping the industry standard of user reception. Focusing on the integration of automobile sales, after-sales service and surrounding industries, a new automotive service ecological chain is built.
Under the trend of new energy waves, Geely Automobile will continue to exert the strong system strength advantage of "intelligent Geely one network and three systems" in new energy. Geely Automobile Group CEO Gan Jiayue said at the recent performance conference: "In 2022, Geely will continue to increase investment in research and development of new energy products, and make full efforts in pure electricity, super mixing, alcohol-electric hybridization, power exchange and other tracks. ”
Relying on the Leishen Zhiqing Hi X technology platform, 2022 Geely Automobile will fully accelerate the transformation to new energy, and more than 8 Models of Leishen Hi X oil-electric hybrid and super hybrid products are planned to be put on the market to provide users with low-carbon life. With the rising tide of the domestic new energy vehicle market, Geely may take advantage of the momentum to achieve breakthroughs in new energy and further accelerate in the fast lane of new energy and intelligence.
