If you want to choose the hot word of the year in 2023, "far ahead" must have a place. This is a word that has exploded because of Huawei, but "far ahead" is not only Huawei, in the field of hard technology, there are more Chinese enterprises and domestic technologies, which continue to make breakthroughs in their respective fields, and even in some fields, the technological advantage can be described as "unbeatable".
Recently, Chery held the "2023 Chery Technology Day", which exhibited a series of pioneering scientific and technological exploration achievements under the "Yaoguang 2025" strategy, including the "Kunpeng Super Hybrid C-DM Technology", which has been a blockbuster in the industry as soon as it was launched, in order to attract the attention of the industry and consumers.
This hybrid system with "thermal efficiency > 44.5%, comprehensive range of 1400+ km, fuel consumption of 4.2L per 100 km, and acceleration of 100 km of 4.26s" subverts users' existing perception of electric hybrid products, and opens a new era with an innovative electric hybrid experience of "global high performance and continuous high energy saving".
Among them, the first hybrid product equipped with dual electric + 3DHT, Xingtu Yaoguang C-DM, has been unveiled at the Shanghai Auto Show in April 2023 and is expected to be officially launched in the fourth quarter of this year, which also marks the beginning of the comprehensive hybridization of the Xingtu brand. It is expected that by 2024, Xingtu will bring 4 hybrid models to achieve a comprehensive "electrocution" hybrid of fuel models.
Dual motor + 3-speed DHT, strong power, plug-in hybrid car no shortcomings
Since last year, the sales growth rate of plug-in hybrid models has surpassed that of pure electric models for many consecutive quarters, and the growth rate is five times that of pure electric models, becoming the core power source to promote the growth of the new energy market. Why does the popularity of hybrid system models continue to rise? The root cause is that hybrid vehicles combine the dual advantages of fuel vehicles and pure electric vehicles, which can grasp the ultra-long range and fast replenishment of fuel vehicles, and can also enjoy the stronger power, lower fuel consumption, and more advanced and intelligent driving experience of electric vehicles.
The Kunpeng Super Hybrid C-DM is one of the world's most advanced hybrid systems, which embodies Chery's 18 years of accumulation of hybrid technology, and is an outstanding achievement in the field of hybrid technology and an important technical support for Chery Group to fully develop the hybrid market. Chery hybrid engine is equipped with a three-speed super electric hybrid DHT, which allows users to experience strong power and fuel consumption at the same time, which is a major innovation in the hybrid field.
The fifth-generation ACTECO 1.5TGDI high-efficiency hybrid engine and 3-speed DHT transmission are an important part of the "three major hybrid parts". Among them, the fifth-generation ACTECO 1.5TGDI high-efficiency hybrid engine has a high power of 115kW and a high torque of 220Nm.
Compared with the common BYD DM-i single-speed transmission with series-parallel hybrid design on the market, although fuel saving is the ultimate pursuit, it also sacrifices performance power. Because there is no gear to choose from the output of the engine, the engine of the DM-i can only work with one gear ratio in the ZJ speed range, and if you want to drive directly, you can only use high-speed working conditions. In most cases, it is not possible to give full play to the power advantage of the engine + motor together.
Aiming at the only weakness of the series-parallel system, Chery's top scientific research team has achieved a breakthrough in technology and power for the three-speed super electric hybrid DHT customized for the Kunpeng super hybrid C-DM, making up for the power shortcomings of plug-in hybrid vehicles. Powered by the "dual-motor drive + 3-speed DHT" mode, its ZG transmission efficiency > 97.6%, the output torque at the wheel end > 4000N·m, and the average electric drive speed > 90%, bringing users a strong power experience while also bringing a perfect driving feeling without jamming.
With the blessing of this combination, it can bring a strong power output at full speed, with an acceleration of only 4.26s per 100 kilometers and a JX speed of 240km/h.
Hybrid is not fuel-efficient, it is equal to no hybrid!
The super performance brings users a dynamic and fun driving experience, while also improving driving efficiency and safety. In the face of congestion in the city commute, it only takes 3 seconds to accelerate from 30 km/h to 70 km/h, which not only does not leave behind, but also makes it easier to overtake. In high-speed scenarios, it only takes 3.6 seconds to accelerate from 90 km/h to 120 km/h, providing users with the preferred configuration of ultra-low energy consumption.
At the same time, the Kunpeng Super Hybrid C-DM system uses intelligent calculations to allow the engine to intervene earlier and in time to participate in the drive according to the driving situation and the strength of the power request. With the dual motors of the system, it can realize the high-performance power experience of full power and feeding. The 3-speed transmission will always maintain the engine speed in the high-efficiency range according to the vehicle speed, which ensures fuel saving.
In addition, the six core technologies of the fifth-generation ACTECO 1.5TGDI high-efficiency hybrid engine make its ZUI thermal efficiency greater than 44.5%, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers can be as low as 4.2L, making it possible to save fuel and reduce emissions.
Not only that, the Kunpeng Super Hybrid C-DM can also achieve super flash charging, which can be recharged to 80% in just 18 minutes, coupled with the ultra-long cruising range, it truly achieves zero anxiety for long-distance travel, completely dispelling the user's range anxiety.
Under the star journey, Yaoguang led the way, and 20+ C-DM models attacked in the whole area
Yin Tongyue, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of Chery Holding Group, said in his speech at the "2023 Chery Technology DAY": "Next year, we are very confident that we will not be as polite as this year in the industry ranking of new energy!" We will definitely be in the top position of the country. ”
In the first three quarters, Chery Group's sales reached 1.253 million units, a year-on-year increase of 40.2%, and its operating income reached 213.02 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 47.4%, both exceeding that of last year. The "2023 Chery Technology DAY" showcased and released more than 10 innovative and cutting-edge technologies, so that Chery can have the vigorous ambition and confidence to "break into the top position in the country".
As Chery's leader in the new energy 2.0 era, the first model equipped with Kunpeng super hybrid C-DM hybrid technology, Xingtu Yaoguang C-DM, will be launched in the fourth quarter of this year, and will be the first to meet everyone. To international standards, to create global products; With Chery ZG standard, it empowers strong power performance, which will make this leapfrog product power to a higher level!
Subsequently, Chery Group is expected to release 5 super hybrid 3.0 and 4 E0X high-end electric products in the fourth quarter of 2023, and plans to expand to 24 super hybrid 3.0 and 15 E0X high-end electric products within 2 years, among which Chery Fengyun A8, Fengyun T9, Xingji ES, Xingtu Yaoguang C-DM, Jietu Traveler C-DM, iCAR 03 and other new energy models will be launched one after another, helping Chery accelerate the comprehensive layout of fuel, hybrid and pure electric vehicles, and create a full new energy product matrix. Open a new era of comprehensive new energy and global intelligence.
