With the continuous acceleration of the electrification process, hybridization has ushered in a favorable era, and what is unexpected is that the autonomous hybrid technology has blossomed. After counting the hybrid technologies of BYD, Changan, Geely, Great Wall, Chery, etc., Qingge in Guangzhou will naturally think: GAC Trumpchi has fallen behind?
The second-generation Trumpchi GS8 is equipped with a Toyota THS hybrid system after digestion and absorption, and with the relationship between GAC and Toyota, perhaps the hybrid route of their family will be like this in the future. In fact, GAC Trumpchi has another technical route, that is, GMC dual motor series parallel hybrid system.
On April 26, GAC Trumpchi officially released the brand name of the new hybrid technology under the electrification strategy, Julang Hybrid, and the official debut of the first model EMKOO Yingku.
Watching BYD, the Great Wall, etc. have launched their own unique hybrid systems, and sure enough, GAC Trumpchi is not idle! Compared with the brother brands, GAC Trumpchi's Julang hybrid actually contains two kinds of hybrid technology routes, one is the forward self-developed GMC dual motor series parallel hybrid system, and the other is the route of digesting and absorbing Toyota's latest THS hybrid system and combining the turbo engine with the THS system.
When the Toyota model is equipped with THS hybrid, it basically adopts a combination of naturally aspirated engines, and GAC Trumpchi naturally lays the foundation for power. The second generation of GS8 dual engine series, zero hundred acceleration can achieve 6.9 seconds, and a tank of oil has achieved an endurance performance of more than 2022 kilometers under the limit test.
Forward self-developed GMC dual motor series parallel hybrid system, the working mode is actually similar to many strings and parallel technical routes, but some parts of each have their own ideas, such as Trumpchi GMC using two-gear DHT, more than one gear can make the engine work range wider, for torque, power output and efficient working conditions will be helpful.
In terms of working modes, there are four GMC hybrids: EV, series, parallel, and energy recovery.
Ev pure electric mode needless to say, it is all about driving the motor to drive the vehicle. The series mode can be understood as an extended range state, the engine drives the generator to generate electricity, and the drive motor drives the vehicle. Parallel connection is the joint participation of the engine and the drive motor, at which time the generator will generate electricity or participate in the drive as needed.
GMC hybrid system equipped with the engine is a 2.0ATK engine, in the GCCS combustion control (patented technology), 350bar ultra-high pressure direct injection, low friction and other technologies, the maximum thermal efficiency of 42.1%, to help the whole system in the power and fuel economy can find a better balance.
In terms of batteries, the use of high-efficiency refrigerant direct cooling technology is said to enable vehicles to maintain high efficiency and high power output throughout the day at various ambient temperatures. In addition, this GMC hybrid system covers oil-electric hybridization, plug-in hybridization, extender hybridization, and even hydrogen power systems.
Compared with the "two fields" hybrid, there is one aspect of the autonomous hybrid that is now blooming everywhere that is far inferior to them, that is, reliability and durability, after all, it takes a long time to accumulate and create a good reputation. Of course, not having a large user base doesn't mean it's not verified.
The more than 100,000 hours of bench testing, the equivalent of 10 million kilometers of the whole vehicle, covering the verification of climate-adaptable roads in the whole region such as high cold, high temperature and high humidity, is the homework behind the GMC hybrid system. In addition, the GMC hybrid system has passed the 10g vibration acceleration reliability verification for the first time in the industry. What is this concept? It is equivalent to 3 times the vibration shock of the hybrid A-class sedan 40km/h over the speed reduction belt.
In terms of the "landing" of the GMC hybrid system, the first model is the EMKOO Shadow Cool, the second model of the GAC Trumpchi Shadow series, positioned as a compact SUV.
The first impression of Yingku is that it is technological and avant-garde, and the interior is integrated with the symbol of "circle" in oriental culture. In terms of details, the central control screen and the rotating air outlet form a scroll design, and the crystal electronic paddle shift, etc., have spent a lot of thought. The new car is equipped with the ADiGO intelligent driving interconnection ecosystem, and is blessed with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip.
In terms of power, in addition to the GMC 2.0 with Julang Hybrid, two gasoline engines will be supplied, the Julang power 1.5TGDI and 2.0TGDI.
In terms of electrified product planning, this year GAC Trumpchi will also successively launch hybrid versions of Shadow Leopard and M8. Autonomous hybrids compete for glory, GAC Trumpchi arrived late, with the GMC + THS dual system as the support, will the win-win be greater? How big a wave will the new car shadow cool + positive self-developed GMC hybrid stir up in the market, it also depends on what kind of pricing will be set at that time, and what range do you think will fall into?
