On April 12, the 2024 GAC Technology Day was unveiled. With the theme of "Science and Technology Vision", this year's Science and Technology Day will bring GAC's mapless pure visual intelligent driving system, which can achieve high-end intelligent driving without relying on high-precision maps and lidars, and is planned to be installed in vehicles in 2026, and a high-safety and large-capacity all-solid-state battery, which can achieve a range of more than 1,000km, will be first installed in Haobo models in 2026.
【All-solid-state battery technology】
GAC focuses on the pain points of new energy vehicles, and in terms of batteries, it has successively released the integration technology of sponge silicon anode sheet battery, ultra-speed battery, microcrystalline super energy battery, and magazine battery. At present, GAC all-solid-state batteries have achieved breakthroughs in energy density, safety, manufacturing technology, etc.
With the third-generation sponge silicon anode and high-capacity solid-state cathode technology, GAC's all-solid-state battery energy density can reach 400wh/kg, which is more than 40% higher than the existing most advanced liquid lithium-ion battery, with a volume energy density increase of more than 40%, a mass energy density increase of more than 30%, and a range of more than 1,000km.
It has ultra-high safety, acupuncture and cutting without failure, and is resistant to 200 degrees Celsius heat box;
In terms of production, it can also effectively reduce the input of equipment and plants, and reduce the comprehensive manufacturing cost by 35%.
It is understood that Toyota is currently promoting all-solid-state batteries in the layout, which can be charged for 10 minutes and has a range of 1200km, and is expected to be mass-produced in small batches in 2027. GAC's all-solid-state battery technology will take the lead.
【GARCIA without a map】
In terms of intelligent driving, the urban NDA intelligent pilot assisted driving was officially released, which will be applied to the Haobo HT model for the first time, and plans to achieve nationwide promotion in the second half of the year.
It is reported that Haobo will get rid of the dependence on high-precision maps through the layout of two major technical routes: multi-sensor fusion and mapless pure vision.
GAC's mapless pure vision intelligent driving GARCIA does not require high-precision maps and lidars, that is, it has the ability to accurately understand complex traffic roads, super traffic signal recognition and processing complex and changeable scenes, and can correctly identify the correspondence between specific lanes and traffic lights.
In terms of parking, through the introduction of large models, GARCIA has the ability of pure vision and high-precision parking, which can solve the pain points of users who park in difficult parking spaces such as three-dimensional parking spaces and narrow parking spaces.
Through its self-developed data closed-loop and simulation system, GARCIA can not only achieve independent iteration and evolution, but also continuously learn more traffic scenarios.
It is understood that GAC will invest 8.4 billion yuan in independent research and development in 2023, and more than 45 billion yuan in independent research and development over the years. At present, GAC Aion has completed a total of more than 20 billion yuan in financing, providing sufficient financial support for the R&D and industrialization of core technologies.
Although the market is highly competitive, technology is king. Adhere to the research and development of core technologies, GAC has a promising future!
