When 160 Dongfeng intelligent driving heavy trucks are ready to go, the spring of 2024 is destined to be more sunny and promising than in previous years. When the industry is still hotly discussing when the tuyere of autonomous driving heavy trucks is approaching, Dongfeng Commercial Vehicle has already joined hands with Junyi Transportation to walk out of a new chapter in the actual operation of intelligent heavy trucks.
In November 2023, Dongfeng Commercial Vehicle and SUYI TRANSPORT completed the batch delivery of the first batch of 63 intelligent driving heavy trucks, and officially put them into the national trunk freight line of SUYI TRANSPORT, becoming a banner for China's trunk logistics to enter the intelligent era. In March 2024, the second batch of 97 intelligent driving heavy trucks will be delivered again. Up to now, 160 Dongfeng intelligent driving heavy trucks have completed nearly 3,000 hours of operation and nearly 7 million kilometers of operation of Yunyi Transportation, constantly refreshing the excellent performance of intelligent technology in improving safety, reducing costs, and efficient operation.
Excellent safety and create a new ecology of trunk logistics and transportation.
As a large-scale transportation enterprise based in Shanghai and radiating across the country, we have an extensive business network and diversified service content, and are committed to meeting the needs of different customers in express logistics and supply chain management through efficient transportation solutions. The introduction of Dongfeng intelligent driving heavy trucks is not only a wise choice for it to adjust its business structure, but also a strategic strategy for it to create an opportunity to become a leading enterprise in international logistics operations. At present, Dongfeng intelligent driving heavy trucks are widely used in the core trunk transportation lines from Central China to East China and South China, as well as from East China to Central China and North China to Central China, which effectively confirms the great potential of intelligent heavy trucks in solving logistics problems between regions and optimizing the layout of logistics networks.
The significant improvement in safety is the primary value brought by Dongfeng intelligent driving heavy trucks. The vehicle is equipped with Inceptio Xuanyuan intelligent driving system, which has advanced autonomous driving technology and multiple safety redundancy systems, and is equipped with the industry's first intelligent driving hardware package such as lidar, millimeter-wave radar, high-definition camera, and autonomous driving computing platform. In the face of many challenges such as trunk logistics road congestion and driver fatigue, Dongfeng intelligent driving heavy trucks show a high degree of reliability and safety in complex road environments, greatly reducing the accident rate, not only protecting the safety of personnel, but also ensuring that the goods are delivered on time and without damage. After more than 4 months of operation, the safe driving experience brought by Dongfeng intelligent driving heavy trucks beyond expectations has been praised by the drivers of Yunyi Transport.
The average fuel consumption is 25.1, setting a new punctuation point for intelligent driving in the industry.
Through the whole process of intelligent fuel-saving technology, the fuel economy achieved by Dongfeng intelligent driving heavy truck for Yunyi transportation is also amazing. In the process of long-distance transportation, fuel costs account for a significant proportion of the operating costs of heavy trucks. Intelligent fuel-saving technology reduces unnecessary fuel consumption through precise driving strategies, intelligent path planning, engine condition optimization, etc., thereby significantly reducing fuel costs per unit of transportation mileage, and significantly improving the profitability and competitiveness of Yunyi Transportation. It is reported that in the initial stage, the basic fuel consumption of Dongfeng intelligent driving heavy trucks has been reduced to 25.1 liters per 100 kilometers, and in April, it was further refined to 24.7 liters.
Through the real-time monitoring and analysis of various vehicle data, the precise path planning and energy-saving driving strategy of the intelligent driving system will help the transportation to achieve long-term stable and sustainable economic benefits. The intelligent driving system dynamically adjusts driving modes based on road conditions, vehicle conditions, and load conditions to achieve optimal fuel efficiency. At the same time, with the efficient dispatching system, it can further reduce invalid waiting and empty mileage, and improve the overall transportation efficiency. In addition, smart fuel-saving technologies help reduce wear and tear on engines and other critical components, as well as mechanical wear and tear caused by improper driving, thereby reducing maintenance costs and increasing vehicle life.
Worry-free, labor-saving and efficient operation, to create a new model of smart logistics.
All operating lines achieve 100% single driving, and at the same time, the mileage of the intelligent driving system accounts for more than 90%, which is the third surprise brought by Dongfeng intelligent driving heavy trucks for Yunyi transportation, and also sets a new model for worry-free, labor-saving and efficient operation of smart logistics.
Dongfeng intelligent driving heavy truck can realize high-speed intelligent driving, which means that in the process of long-distance transportation, the driver no longer needs to maintain high-intensity mental concentration and physical tension at all times, and only needs to supervise and intervene when necessary, which greatly reduces the driver's workload and improves driving safety. At the same time, through sophisticated algorithms and powerful perception capabilities, the intelligent driving system can make fast and accurate decisions in complex and changeable road conditions, effectively avoiding the potential safety hazards that may be brought about by human driving.
Through intelligent scheduling and management, Dongfeng intelligent driving heavy trucks can help enterprises optimize the allocation of human resources, reduce dependence on the number of drivers, and then save labor costs for enterprises and release more human resources for other value-added links. At the same time, all-weather, uninterrupted transportation services can effectively overcome the physiological limitations of human driving. Relying on the high-precision map navigation, real-time road condition analysis and optimal path planning of the intelligent driving system, the vehicle is always in the best driving state, so as to maximize transportation efficiency, shorten the delivery cycle and reduce transportation costs.
With enhanced safety, cost savings, leaps in efficiency, and manpower optimization, there is no doubt that the introduction and successful operation of Dongfeng intelligent driving heavy trucks have built a set of highly competitive intelligent logistics solutions for Yunyi Transportation, bringing an all-round improvement from the inside out. Based on the current good operational performance, the two companies will continue to deepen cooperation in technology research and development, data sharing, operation and maintenance services, etc., and provide a model reference for other logistics companies while strongly promoting the sustainable development of both parties' businesses. It is reported that up to now, Dongfeng has put into commercial operation more than 800 intelligent driving vehicles, with a safe operation mileage of 100 million kilometers, covering 200+ core lines across the country, which has contributed to the penetration of intelligent driving heavy trucks in the logistics industry and leading the logistics industry to a new stage of intelligence and efficiency.
