[Introduction: The chicken or the egg is the problem of the century, which is not only related to science and ethics, but also affects the authority of "truth". Is order important? Of course, order is not only a reflection of logic and methodology, but also a reflection of responsibility and sincerity. Like making a car, one is to catch up with the tuyere and absorb the flow of the car, and the other is to start from the market and build a car based on people, with different concepts and far different performances. 】

From the perspective of priority, the first is the topic volume or eye-catching level of the product, then the actual meaning or practical value, and finally the user needs and use scenarios. The products in this path have a very short cycle from project approval to R&D to mass production. Consumers can only passively adapt to the design, function and other attributes of the finished product.
The ARCFOX Darwin 2.0 technical system was officially released, and the brand ideas and technical routes are refreshing, just like the long-lost "forward car manufacturing" is back.
What is Darwin 2.0?
The Darwin technology system is the culmination of JiHu Technology, and it is also an important IP that carries the "people-oriented" values of JiHu Technology.
JiHu Technology set sail in Darwin 1.0, and the brand guidance of "liberating people, delighting people, and growing themselves" has enabled JiHu to have a comprehensive understanding of consumers and focus on intelligence in an all-round way.
In the era of Darwin 2.0, ARCFOX put forward the slogan of "Guardian People, Pleasant People, and Warm People", and the core concept of "people-oriented" was further sublimated.
Compared with Darwin 1.0, the new system will still ensure intelligence including autonomous assisted driving, intelligent interconnection, telematics and other modules. In addition to intelligence, Darwin 2.0 will further extend to battery management, power system, chassis technology, safety protection and other directions.
What is upgraded is technology, and what evolves is attitude
As one of the most concerned parts of the tram composition, ARCFOX spent a large amount of time at the launch site to introduce the Aurora battery under the new system, which is simply summarized as "safety", "durability" and "fast charging".
The bottom of the Aurora cell is equipped with the "Xuanwu Armor" created by Jihu, which is known as the aerospace-grade material process, with a strength of 1500MPa and a complex environment. The thickness of the Xuanwu armor also accounts for only 7% of the height of the battery pack, and according to Jihu, the Xuanwu armor can save more than 20% of the space compared to the industry level.
With the blessing of "submarine sealing" and "fire blanket insulation" technology, the Aurora battery is fully armed and has become an "intrinsically safe" battery in the true sense.
In terms of durability, BAIC's user data (covering 500,000 kilometers in 10 years) can generate a good endorsement for ARCFOX to a large extent. The key is that JiHu also ensures the durability of the battery through cell quality control, full life cycle verification, and 360 full-time housekeeping.
It can be seen that JiHu pursues high quality at the source and process peace of mind for battery management almost regardless of the cost. JiHu is fully responsible for its users and will not sacrifice the reliability of its products for the sake of speed and progress.
Regarding charging, ARCFOX is determined to take off the hat of "slow charging, poor convenience, and inefficient in winter" of electric vehicles. "800V platform", "5C supercharging system", "mobile app battery preheating", and "intelligent booster system" (compatibility between high-voltage vehicles and low-voltage piles) are all key to JiHu to achieve convenient charging.
In terms of power, JiHu believes that the "single acceleration" of the optical scroll is of little significance. The "fast" recognized by JiHu is "'fast' when accelerating continuously" and "'fast' when avoiding obstacles in an emergency". This kind of "fast" is a kind of "fast" with a calm attitude and "fast" with sufficient stamina, which seems to be a requirement for "speed", but is actually a requirement for many aspects and systems such as "heat production", "heat dissipation", "brake", "steering" and "chassis".
In terms of chassis, the intelligent suspension system developed by ARCFOX can reduce body roll by 20% compared with conventional models. In addition, the Lingyun chassis of ARCFOX is built based on the chassis tuning index evaluation database established by 59.3 billion kilometers of user operation data in all areas and all scenarios, and it is also indispensable for Magna's professional team.
Feng Shuo, head of JiHu Intelligent Connected Technology, said frankly, "The intelligence of JiHu should start from the underlying technology, and only by focusing on the operating system and software architecture, combined with AI large model technology, can we truly achieve seamless integration across systems and ecosystems." Therefore, compared to seeking external technology supply, JiHu JiHu is committed to "laying the foundation", "building a platform" and "cross-system integration" is the most long-term and most comprehensive choice.
For JiHu, the technical parts of the Darwin 2.0 system other than security are called "icing on the cake", and safety is the bottom line. JiHu has built a protective network of "Jihu Security" from six aspects: scene warning, physical protection, distress escape, management and control insulation, privacy protection and long-term escort.
Extreme Fox can be in a league of its own
"Double the convenience of car life" is the mission of Darwin 2.0, and the carrier of Darwin 2.0 is BAIC's new digital high-end platform - Polaris platform. The platform sits on the homologous design of Mercedes-Benz MRA luxury rear-wheel drive platform in engineering design and module development, deeply integrates with the Darwin 2.0 system, has a solid professional endorsement and mature technical framework, and is also mixed with the mission and responsibility of traditional manufacturers.
There was a lot of dry goods in the whole press conference. From the perspective of scientific and technological hard power and technical concepts, Jihu has indeed come up with a lot of different things, and at the same time, it is reasonable and evidence-based, can truly restore the scene, and dare to face the common pain points of the tram, instead of avoiding the important and talking to himself.
With the release of Darwin 2.0, ARCFOX has made its car-building attitude clearer, with a purer purpose and independent car-making logic and market insight, which makes JIHU unique in the exaggerated industry environment.
The car-building path of Jihu is a completely positive car-building path, which is contrary to the gameplay of reverse car-makers.
Reverse car manufacturing is nothing more than speculating on user needs, greatly reducing the time for R&D, testing, and data collection, and user feedback and even maintenance after delivery become the beginning of truly establishing a data model. Reverse car manufacturing is efficient, users can pick up the car as soon as possible, and manufacturers can make quick money, but there are many problems and it is difficult to get concerned.
The fundamental reason for the emergence of Darwin 2.0 is to solve the growing needs of users and the gradually intensifying pain point contradictions, and JiHu has become the terminator of the problem, so that "starting from needs" and "people-oriented" are no longer empty talk.
Comments
Is "positive research and development" and "building cars for consumers" a good thing? It must be, after all, it is related to the vital interests of users. So why is there only a few "Jihu" in the industry, perhaps in the eyes of many manufacturers, "creating traffic" is much more cost-effective than "building a good car". "We have not lost in terms of technology, and we have not won in terms of traffic," Dai Kangwei, general manager of BAIC New Energy, said at the press conference. Although it is ridiculous, it is full of bitterness and bitterness. Although it is said that the long-lost "positive car building" is back, under the not optimistic sales and the gap between return and pay, how long JiHu can hold on will be the key to how much market response Darwin 2.0 can get.
