Beijing Daily Client | Reporter Yuan Lu
On December 11, after Yu Chengdong issued a document questioning the rules of understanding the winter test of the car emperor, Great Wall Motor announced that it would hold a communication meeting on the standard of understanding the winter test of the car emperor, and the senior vice president of Geely Holding Group also said that he did not agree with the evaluation results of the pure electric range achievement rate of the hybrid model of the winter test of the car emperor.
In response to a number of car companies' questions about understanding the Chedi winter test, the Chedi responded that this test is a full-load endurance test in extremely cold weather below -20°C, and all participating vehicles set off in formation after maintenance, using a unified standard, in line with the user's winter car scene, and there is no discrimination. "The winter test will be carried out normally, and users and car companies are welcome to put forward valuable suggestions. ”
Recently, about 20 models participated in the test. Among them, BYD looks up to the first, with a range achievement rate of 85.08%, and the M7 extended range version is the first, with only 31.6%. In response to the bottom of the test results of the M7 in the cold endurance test, Yu Chengdong, chairman of Huawei's intelligent vehicle solution BU, said: "The test of the pit people! Science and rigor are the basic rules that should be followed!"
Following Yu Chengdong's questioning, Great Wall Motors also announced on the 11th that it would hold a communication meeting on the challenge of the winter test standard of the car emperor at 15 o'clock on December 14 in Beijing.
On the evening of the 11th, Geely Automobile also joined this "battle". Yang Xueliang, senior vice president of Geely Holding Group, said bluntly that he did not agree with the evaluation results of the pure electric range achievement rate of hybrid models released by the "2023 Winter Test". "The evaluation process is unscientific, not rigorous, and the conclusions are not convincing, which not only misleads consumers, but also hurts the credibility of Chedi itself. ”
Yang Xueliang said that according to the evaluation rules announced in advance by the car emperor, all vehicles should be prepared for the same time before the vehicle departs, and the actual power of all vehicles before departure should be recorded, but the actual operation is not the case. He believes that according to the data retrieved from the background, the Geely Galaxy L6 idle in place for 70 minutes during the maintenance process before the test, during which the door was opened 4 times, and the longest two door openings were more than 10 minutes; These operations have greatly increased the energy consumption of the air conditioner, resulting in a significant drop in the vehicle's power before it is officially issued.
In response to the doubts of car companies, the car emperor also announced the detailed rules of the test method, saying that the endurance test standards of all vehicles are consistent, and it is impossible to target a certain model, let alone affect the final ranking.
