On May 10, BYD threw out the "king bomb" again, and the new platform and new models were launched at the same time: a new generation of e-platform 3.0 Evo was released, and the ocean network also added another blockbuster model, and the e-platform 3.0 Evo's first model, Hiace 07EV, made its global simultaneous debut.
Integrate BYD's core technology for electrification, e-platform 3.0, and evolve again
Since its establishment 30 years ago, BYD has continued to promote the iteration and innovation of core technologies. Among them, BYD's e-platform is the industry's first open and shared R&D and manufacturing platform for electric vehicles, and it is also a collection of technological upgrades and innovations of this new energy vehicle head enterprise.
According to public information, in 2010, BYD first launched the e-platform 1.0, which platformized key components such as the three electrics, and then continued to evolve and iterate, launching the e-platform 2.0 and 3.0 in 2018 and 2022 respectively.
After two years, the e-platform 3.0 has once again ushered in a major upgrade and evolution. Lian Yubo, Chief Scientist of BYD Group and President of the Automotive Engineering Research Institute, said at the press conference that the new platform of e-platform 3.0 Evo integrates BYD's core technology of electrification, and is equipped with the world's first CTB vehicle safety architecture, the world's first 12-in-1 intelligent electric drive, the world's first intelligent wide-temperature high-efficiency heat pump, the world's first global intelligent fast charging, and the world's first intelligent motion control.
As we all know, battery packing technology is one of the core technologies of the e-platform. BYD's battery pack technology has also undergone many iterations, from the traditional module battery pack in 2010 to the CTP battery pack in 2020, to the CTB battery pack in 2022, and then to the e-platform 3.0 Evo The world's first CTB vehicle safety architecture, continuing to lead the development of the intelligent electric vehicle industry through integrated innovation.
Taking the CTB vehicle safety architecture as an example, the architecture increases the safety buffer space of the front cabin by 100mm, thereby improving the frontal collision safety by 60%, and its endoskeleton CTB safety architecture integrates the 1500Mpa ultra-high-strength closed-mouth section roller beam and blade battery, and a single beam can bear the weight of 8 adult elephants.
12 world's first hard-core technologies support Hiace 07EV "rolled out" to a new height
Technological innovation has created an electric explosion. According to Lian Yubo, the cumulative sales of BYD's e-platform models have reached 3.9 million units, with a cumulative pure electric mileage of more than 188.9 billion kilometers, and they are exported to 80+ countries and regions.
With the upgrade of the e-platform to the 3.0 Evo, the models equipped with the e-platform have been updated again. On May 10, the e-platform 3.0 Evo was officially launched with the Hiace 07EV for the first time, and launched 4 models, with an official guide price range of 189,800 yuan to 239,800 yuan.
BYD believes that electrification and intelligence are the core targets for winning a new round of elimination. Positioned as a "medium-sized urban intelligent electric SUV", the Hiace 07EV is the first mid-size pure electric SUV and the first model of the all-new Hiace IP, equipped with 12 world-first hard-core technologies and more than 100 standard configurations for the whole series.
Among them, the world's 23,000rpm mass-produced highest-speed motor, intelligent upflow fast charging technology, intelligent terminal fast charging technology, super iTAC and other e-platform 3.0 Evo breakthrough technologies are all equipped on the Hiace 07EV, making it safer, more efficient, and more intelligent.
In terms of intelligence, Hiace 07EV is fully equipped with advanced intelligent technology, not only has a high-end version of the intelligent cockpit - DiLink 100, but also the first high-end intelligent driving assistance system - DiPilot 100, from a variety of human-vehicle interaction forms to rich intelligent driving functions, to build a "human-centered" full-scene intelligent experience.
In terms of fast charging, Hiace 07EV is equipped with BYD's world's first intelligent upflow fast charging, full-scene intelligent pulse self-heating, intelligent terminal fast charging, intelligent boost fast charging four technologies, Hiace 07EV 550 in the 2015 version of the charging national standard public DC charging pile The maximum charging power can reach 180kW, and the 610 long-range version, 610 Zhihang version, and 550 four-wheel drive Zhihang version have a maximum charging power of 240kW on the public supercharging pile. The Hiace 07EV 10-80% SOC has a charging time of up to 25 minutes, and the end charging time is reduced from 30 minutes to 18 minutes. In extremely low temperature environments, the charging time of the Hiace 07EV can be significantly shortened by 40%.
In terms of the three-electric system, the battery network learned from the press conference that the Hiace 07EV can be said to be equipped with BYD's strongest three-electric system: based on the new generation of CTB vehicle safety architecture, equipped with the world's first endoskeleton CTB safety architecture, compared with the industry, the regional body strength has been increased by 60%, coupled with the super safe blade battery, strong combination, safety performance has been greatly improved.
The Hiace 07EV is also equipped with BYD's world's first high-efficiency 12-in-1 intelligent electric drive system, all of which are equipped with 1200V silicon carbide electronic control, and adopt the world's highest speed motor for mass production at 23,000rpm, which can reach a top speed of more than 225km/h, which has a better acceleration experience and better endurance performance in daily travel.
At the same time, the Hiace 07EV is equipped with a new generation of intelligent wide-temperature high-efficiency heat pump system, the industry's first intelligent dual-circulation battery direct cooling and direct heating technology, and the world's first electric drive high-efficiency composite temperature control system, which realizes efficient temperature control and energy management of the passenger compartment, battery system and electric powertrain, and further improves the system efficiency of the vehicle, with the low-temperature cruising range of the vehicle increased by 45km and the normal temperature driving range increased by 60km, allowing users to fully experience the efficiency and convenience of pure electric travel.
Conclusion: Based on the advantages of vertical integration, full-stack self-research and accumulation in the field of electrification, BYD has become the world's new energy vehicle sales champion, of which the cumulative sales of Haiyangwang have reached 2.58 million units. With the blessing of the new platform and new models, the Ocean series models, which are more fashionable in appearance, will continue to become a popular new energy vehicle.
