If the development process of new energy vehicles is divided into the first half dominated by electrification and the second half dominated by intelligence, then the listing of the new HI version of Polar Fox Alpha S marks the full arrival of the intelligent outlet of new energy vehicles.

In fact, the new HI version of Jihu Alpha S is inseparable from Huawei's intelligent technology support, nor is it inseparable from BAIC BJEV's quality control of Jihu Automobile. BAIC BJEV is the earliest automobile manufacturer in China to enter the field of new energy vehicles, previously, based on the research and judgment of the new energy vehicle market, BAIC BJEV foresaw the strong demand for smart cars and the development trend of product intelligence, brand high-end and technology autonomy, and took the lead in taking an important step in the intelligent transformation.

BAIC BJEV's forward-looking vision makes the new HI version of The Extreme Fox Alpha S a pioneer on the intelligent car track.

First, research and development first. BAIC BJEV has achieved a number of independent innovations and breakthroughs in the technology of three electric (battery, electric drive, and electronic control), such as continuous development of battery life, safety, quick change, etc., comprehensively improving the advanced nature of battery technology; independently developing a high-performance integrated intelligent electric drive system, and the core indicators such as power density, efficiency, and EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) have reached the international advanced level.

In terms of platform technology, in order to shape the high-end quality of Jihu Automobile, BAIC BJEV began to develop a fully redundant architecture electric platform IMC architecture as early as 2016, which has advanced electric system and intelligent system configuration functions, supports wheelbase expansion from 2.75 meters to 3 meters, supports high-end intelligent driving, and has the four characteristics of super expansion, intelligence, interaction and evolution.

In terms of intelligent IoT, BAIC BJEV has formulated technical development plans such as intelligent cockpit, intelligent driving, and intelligent network connection, and has carried out in-depth cooperation with Huawei and Baidu to jointly promote the research and development of on-board high-precision sensors, vehicle-level chips, intelligent operating systems, on-board intelligent terminals, intelligent computing platforms and other products.

The second is cooperation first. Gathering the strengths of each family is the premise of creating intelligent car products, Jihu Automobile cooperated with Magna, which has rich experience in high-end automobile manufacturing, to build China's first high-end intelligent pure electric vehicle research and development and manufacturing center; established a strategic cooperative relationship with Huawei to open the era of 5G intelligent networked vehicles; established in-depth cooperation with Baidu in shared unmanned vehicle technology; and cooperated with CATL times to deeply study solid-state battery technology.

In addition, Jihu Auto has also reached strategic partnerships with more than 70 of the world's top suppliers such as Siemens Valeo, Bosch, Harman and Michelin. The lineup can be called a luxurious "circle of friends", which injects inspiration and power into the Extreme Fox Car.

The third is service first. As of the end of March, Jihu Automobile has built 82 authorized service centers, covering 56 cities across the country; the energy replenishment network composed of 4 Jihu exclusive supercharging stations, 2 destination stations, 14 mobile supercharging service vehicles, and 1289 certified charging stations covering 40 cities has been officially put into operation. At the same time, Jihu Automobile operates 105 stores, which will reach 186 by the end of this year, and plans to achieve a marketing service network covering a total of 380+ stores in 100+ cities by 2025.

For Jihu Automobile, whether it is R&D investment, service network or cooperation with Huawei and Magna, its purpose is to create high-quality intelligent car products.

Three world firsts, the debut of the high-end products of the Polar Fox family

As the first high-end high-end intelligent car jointly built by Jihu Automobile and Huawei, the new HI version of Jihu Alpha S shoulders the historical mission of "forerunner" of intelligent travel in the future, and it also has three major launch advantages, namely the first mass production car that supports intelligent driving on urban roads, the first mass production car equipped with HI Huawei's full-stack intelligent car solution, and the first mass production car equipped with Huawei's intelligent cockpit - Hongmeng car machine OS.

It is worth mentioning that the new HI version of The Extreme Fox Alpha S is equipped with 34 high-perception hardware, including 3 mass-produced lidars, forming a set of ultra-high fusion perception system with 360-degree full coverage, with the MDC810 intelligent driving computing platform, supporting 400 TOPS super computing power, and can realize the advanced functions of mass-produced automatic driving such as urban L2 automatic driving, high-speed NOA, and memory parking.

But how exactly was the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S produced?

The first is the integration of international luxury car manufacturing standards. Magna has more than 100 years of experience and history in high-end car manufacturing, and its graz plant in Austria has produced more than 3.7 million cars, including the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, Aston Martin Rapide and other top luxury cars.

In December 2019, BAIC BJEV Magna's high-end intelligent manufacturing base was completed. This is magna's first vehicle manufacturing plant outside of Europe, and it is also the first Magna joint venture high-end intelligent manufacturing base in Asia. BAIC BJEV has fully introduced the Magna production and operation management system, integrating the manufacturing standards of the same level of first-line luxury vehicles, bringing comprehensive and reliable high-end quality assurance.

BAIC BJEV actively introduces magna, a luxury car manufacturing expert, which can not only ensure the manufacturing standards of the new HI version of Jihu Alpha S, but also fully build its high-end positioning.

This is followed by automated production lines and highly sophisticated operations. In the BAIC BJEV Magna high-end intelligent manufacturing base, whether it is a stamping workshop, a body workshop, a painting workshop, a final assembly workshop or a battery PACK workshop, automated production lines and robotic arms can be seen everywhere.

For example, in the battery PACK workshop, the automation rate of the production line is as high as 53%. The high degree of automation not only ensures the precision, consistency and higher production efficiency of the overall process, but also makes battery production safer.

Finally, there are production standards that far exceed the industry level. Whether it is the "China Top Ten Body" and "Best Material" double awards, or CA-CAP's first batch of corrosion resistance evaluation platinum grades, Jihu Automobile has withstood the rigorous test. Or take the battery as an example, the power battery used by Jihu Automobile in the production of the completion of the completion, but also through more than 200 test verification, coverage and strength is much higher than the national standard requirements, such as the national standard humid heat cycle test cycle is only 3 days, Jihu automobile to do equivalent more than 10 years, more than 3 months of high temperature and high humidity cycle test, and more than 8 months of full use temperature under the condition of alternating test, to ensure that the power battery system adapts to the use of scenarios in the environment across the country.

In addition, in the research and development process of the new HI version of Polar Fox Alpha S, the engineers of the two sides have cooperated for more than 1200 days, the generalization test mileage has exceeded one million kilometers, and has experienced more than two years, a total of three rounds, nearly 300 kinds of chassis tuning, and hundreds of thousands of kilometers of full testing and verification of various weather pavements, in the layout of lidar, the integration of 5G antennas and the optimization of the front windshield, etc., to achieve technological first and leading, and to achieve breakthroughs in product functions.

Large-scale commercialization, the "forerunner" Jihu re-established the intelligent benchmark of mass production vehicles

The launch of the new HI version of Polar Fox Alpha S provides a first-time opportunity for consumers who are keen on the ultimate and fresh experience.

The new HI version of Polar Fox Alpha S is equipped with Huawei's Hongmeng operating system, which can be seamlessly connected with mobile phones, computers, PADs, smart home appliances and other products, organically connecting people, devices, and scenes, and exposing consumers to a variety of wisdoms in full-scene life
