For Lantu, who has the new strength of car manufacturing, in order to really play its own piece of the sky, it basically needs two points: one is to understand the needs of customers wholeheartedly, and the other is to continuously innovate.
And Lantu is exactly what it does, such as the mica amber battery released last year, and the Lanhai power that we want to talk about today.
What is Lanhai Power?
When the first model Landu FREE was born, many consumers had a very simple impression of Landu, which was luxurious, highly equipped, and representative of the extended range power. However, after the unveiling of the second production-grade luxury MPV Dreamer, a new concept also came, that is, super extended range power. After the official listing of Lantu Dreamer on May 7, this super range-extending power has a new name - intelligent multi-mode drive.
In fact, Lanhai Power of Lantu can support two power schemes of high-performance pure electricity and intelligent multi-mode drive, which are applied to the 0 carbon version of Lantu Dreamer and the low carbon version of Lantu Dreamer.
Dreamer 0 carbon version is actually a pure electric version, it is equipped with a maximum power of 160kW / 160kW front and rear dual motors, peak torque 620N·m, 100 km acceleration is only 5.8s, this acceleration ability undoubtedly broke everyone's cognition of MPV, after all, even many power-famous coupes can not catch up with this 2.5-ton big guy.
The Dreamer low-carbon version is equipped with intelligent multi-mode drive. In contrast, this name is very strange, but also let many consumers and even media colleagues are very confused, is not a super range, how to change the name in the blink of an eye? But after watching the Lanhai Power Technology Lecture on the evening of May 9, I finally understood the novelty and strength of this intelligent multi-mode drive!
Intelligent multimode drive – an presence that transcends range extended range and plug-in hybrids
I have to mention that the innovation ability of Lantu is really good, this set of intelligent multi-mode drive can be said to be a combination of range extension and plug-in hybrid, it can switch pure electricity, range series connection, engine direct drive, mixed drive and other modes at any time according to different travel scenarios of users. If it is driven in an urban area, the vehicle power completely relies on pure electricity, and when the battery loses power, the charging speed of the extended range series is not only far better than the ordinary plug-in hybrid system, but also allows the engine to be in the most efficient and fuel-efficient state. When the speed exceeds 70km/h, in order to reduce the power consumption of the vehicle, the engine will also drive part of the power directly to the vehicle to achieve a better consumption balance between oil and electricity. When the vehicle really needs super power, the engine will be mixed with the electric motor to drive the body, and the energy will erupt in an instant.
Summarizing the advantages of this set of intelligent multi-mode drives is nothing more than two points: one is that it provides better power and the ability to cruise at high speed for a long time than the extended range; the other is that in the case of battery power loss, it has a more powerful self-charging efficiency and more fuel-saving ability than plug-in.
Ultra-high-speed cruising capability
In fact, in the technical briefing meeting, we also learned that Lantu's intelligent multi-mode drive also has a special ability - ultra-high-speed cruise. The dreamer equipped with this set of power can cruise continuously for more than 30 minutes at a speed of 150km/h in the event of power loss, which is basically unimaginable for ordinary extended range models. For example, the ideal one, at a speed of 120km/h, has already appeared that the charging can not keep up with the consumption, not to mention the loss of electricity. In contrast, the intelligent multi-mode drive breaks this barrier, so that the speed acceleration ability and extreme speed ability have been greatly improved, not to mention that the Lantu Dreamer is still a big guy with a curb weight of 2.5 tons and a full load of more than 3 tons.
Is fuel consumption in the end saved?
What is its fuel consumption? In the technical briefing, Dr. Lu Fang, CEO and CTO of Lantu, also gave us a thorough understanding, the comprehensive fuel consumption of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is as low as 1.99L/100km, the WLTC working conditions of the urban fuel consumption is not higher than 5L/100km, and in the high-speed cruise of more than 120km/h, the fuel consumption of Lantu Dreamer can also be controlled below 10L/100km. At that time, some people in the live broadcast room also questioned that his car was cruising at high speed of 8L/100km. But don't forget, a fully loaded Lantu Dreamer, 3 tons of weight is basically twice the weight of an ordinary car, and this is still the most fuel-intensive driving state of the Lantu Dreamer. If it is driving in a fully powered city, is it better? ......
Why not install a larger battery pack?
Of course, there were also some questions raised in the live broadcast room, such as the low-carbon version of the Lantu Dreamer that should have a larger battery pack like the Lantu FREE. And Dr. Huang Min also gave an answer: for a model with the dual ability of plug-in and range-extended, the self-charging speed of The Lantu Dreamer is completely different from that of ordinary plug-in models, so installing a larger battery pack is a burden. A larger battery pack means a bigger cost, but it also means a bigger weight, a higher price, and in many ways it is unfriendly to consumers. It is precisely because it is considered from the user's point of view that the pure electric endurance of the Lantu Dreamer is controlled at 83km, achieving a relatively better balance.
In fact, a simple live Q&A will show that the efficiency of Lantu is indeed amazing. Putting aside the technology in the live broadcast, the attitude of Lantu alone is worthy of recognition, users and media have questions, Lantu will immediately hold a live broadcast on the next night to answer questions and answers, explain clearly for everyone. If independent brands have such high efficiency, I believe that China's automobile manufacturing industry will definitely have a better future in the world.
