Kunpeng Super Performance Hybrid C-DM consists of a hybrid engine, a hybrid gearbox and a hybrid battery management system, and the fifth-generation ACTECO 1.5TGDI high-efficiency hybrid engine and the industry's first three-speed super hybrid DHT and stepless super hybrid DHT are an important part of the "three major hybrid components". As the pioneer representative of domestic super hybrid technology, Chery's third-generation hybrid technology has launched two golden CP combinations, committed to creating excellent hybrid products with "global high performance and continuous high energy saving", bringing users the ultimate extraordinary travel experience.
【5th generation ACTECO 1.5TGDI high-efficiency hybrid engine】
Motivation is surging, one step ahead. The fifth-generation ACTECO 1.5TGDI high-efficiency engine paired with a 3-speed super electric hybrid DHT combination mode breaks through the industry ceiling and is a major innovation in the field of hybridization. As the power "core" of Kunpeng's super-performance electric hybrid C-DM, the fifth-generation ACTECO 1.5TGDI high-efficiency hybrid engine has a maximum power of 115kW and a maximum torque of 220Nm. Under the empowerment of the "dual-motor drive + 3-speed DHT" mode, its highest transmission efficiency is > 97.6%, the output torque at the wheel end is > 4000N·m, and the average speed of the electric drive is >90%, which brings users a strong power experience and a perfect driving feeling without lag.
Not only that, the combination also has a strong power output in the full-speed range, with an acceleration of only 4.26s per 100 kilometers and a limit speed of 240km/h, which can give users the ultimate performance hybrid driving experience in starting, accelerating, driving and other car scenarios. In the face of congestion in urban commuting, it takes only 3s to accelerate from 30 km/h to 70 km/h, which not only does not leave the car behind, but also makes overtaking easier; In high-speed scenes where you are running freely, it only takes 3.6s to accelerate from 90 km/h to 120 km/h, making it safer to drive all the way and enjoy a smooth journey.
【New iteration three-speed super electric hybrid DHT】
The combination consists of the fifth-generation ACTECO 1.5TGDI high-efficiency hybrid special engine and the newly developed stepless super electric hybrid DHT, which is a breakthrough in traditional hybrid technology, opening a "electricity-based, oil-supplemented" travel experience, creating ultimate performance with extreme efficiency, and firmly occupying the leading position of Tongwei products.
The stepless super electric hybrid DHT has E-CVT non-inductive transmission, which achieves smooth and silent driving, and the driving experience is comparable to pure electricity. The maximum speed of the drive motor/generator reaches 16000 rpm, the maximum efficiency of the motor is 98% (the industry average is 97%), and the comprehensive range is 1400+km, providing users with the preferred configuration of ultra-low energy consumption.

In addition, the fifth-generation ACTECO 1.5TGDI high-efficiency hybrid engine has six core technologies, making its maximum thermal efficiency greater than 44.5%, and the fuel consumption can be as low as 4.2L per 100 km, making it possible to save fuel and reduce emissions. Not only that, Kunpeng's ultra-performance electric hybrid C-DM can also achieve super flash charging, which can be replenished to 80% in only 18 minutes, and the time of a cup of hand-brewed coffee can be restarted; At the same time, the comprehensive range exceeds 1400+ kilometers, and there is 0 anxiety for long-distance travel, which completely eliminates the user's mileage anxiety and allows users to freely cope with different trips.
The three major brands are working together to accelerate the realization of full hybridization
With the blessing of Kunpeng's ultra-performance electric hybrid C-DM, the three major brands of Chery, Xingtu and Jietu will be fully hybridized, and by 2024, Chery Group will launch more than 20 C-DM models, opening Chery's running "acceleration" in the new energy era.
Arrizo 8C-DM, the first model of the Chery brand to ride the Kunpeng Ultra Performance Hybrid C-DM, will be launched in the fourth quarter of 2023. It is expected that by 2025, the Chery brand will bring more than 10 C-DM models to realize the comprehensive new energy of products.
The Yaoguang C-DM, which was unveiled at the Shanghai Auto Show in April 2023, is expected to be launched in the fourth quarter of this year with the official mass production of the third-generation hybrid technology, which also marks the beginning of the comprehensive hybridization of the Xingtu brand. It is expected that by 2025, Xingtu will bring four hybrid models to fully hybridize fuel vehicles.
In addition, JIT Motors has also started a full hybridization of new products such as JIT Traveler, as well as existing products, and will simultaneously launch hybrid products, and achieve full new energy by 2024. Among them, the hybrid version of the Jettu Traveler will be equipped with Chery Kunpeng's ultra-performance electric hybrid C-DM technology, and it is expected that by 2024, 6 models of the Jettu will be equipped with this technology, accelerating the expansion of the hybrid product matrix and embracing the transformation of the new energy era.
