Suspected internal file of starway

Most of the new products mentioned here point to the brand-new B-class SUV-Eta Ursae Majoris production version, which is the most important product of Starway this year. According to the release time of the previous publicity, the production version of Eta Ursae Majoris is planned to go offline at the end of 2022, and the exposure half a year in advance is more in line with the publicity rhythm, so it will probably be launched in this brand night.

Xingtu Eta Ursae Majoris concept car

Having said that, who is Eta Ursae Majoris? This is a brand-new SUV concept car released by Starway at last year’s (2021) Shanghai Auto Show, positioning the coupe SUV. The shape of the concept car is very beautiful, and it also represents the future design direction of Starway. Compared with Starway’s current sedate style, the new design language is definitely a big breakthrough. Of course, it is known to be a concept car, and there will be no small discrepancy in the future production version.

At this point, we can get the general appearance information from the production spy photos of Eta Ursae Majoris. Obviously, it does differ a little from the concept car, especially the light group, which is not as flat as the concept car, but tends to the traditional style. In addition, although it locates the coupe SUV, the shape of the rear roof can be seen because of some compromise in space.

However, whether the model in the spy photos is really a production version of Eta Ursae Majoris remains to be verified, and we can only pin our expectations on the interior. Judging from the interior of the concept car, it is also more fresh than the current model of Starway. First of all, it is extremely rare to use full LCD display on the steering wheel. Secondly, the shape of the whole center console is also fierce. In short, the design sense is in place, depending on the production version.

This project document also exposes its size and power information. Its length, width and height are 4675/1920/1625mm, and its wheelbase is 2780mm. From the perspective of wheelbase, Eta Ursae Majoris is considered as a large compact SUV. In the power part, it adopts 2.0TGDI+8AT/9AT, providing two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive models, which is the first time that the Starway family has adopted AT gearbox.

Suspected Star Road Eta Ursae Majoris Power Information

Although there is little information at present, judging from the news exposed before, Eta Ursae Majoris will be the first product of Starway in the 2.0 era, and it will also bring Starway into a brand-new product route. Let’s wait for the arrival of the conference in June!

Finally, a car has been arranged, and the ideal product plan will be exposed next year, with a main price of 200,000-500,000 yuan.

On May 10th, LI released its financial report for the first quarter of 2022, with revenue reaching 9.56 billion yuan, an increase of 168.7% compared with the first quarter of 2021, and the loss was also controlled at 10.9 million yuan. Ideally, this is the best financial report ever.

LI’s financial report for the first quarter of 2022.

Li Xiang, CEO of LI, also talked about the planning of ideal future products at the financial report meeting, and further explained the models, prices and peripheral services that consumers care about. In terms of power form planning, LI still insists on two directions: pure electric power and extended range. He said that it is better to use extended range power for SUVs, not MPV and cars. For pure electric SUVs, the ideal will take a new form to design, and the two will jointly dominate the price market of 200,000-500,000 yuan.

LI extended range power

For the market with the price of 200,000-500,000 yuan, Ideal also plans to launch a heavyweight product in every 100,000 range, and accurately launch it according to the needs of different consumers at different prices, which sounds like an ideal product tonality. After all, the greatest contribution to Li ONE’s success is its accurate user positioning, followed by price, and technical means are not its main advantages.

Li ONE

So what kind of product is it? Ideally, three models will be launched next year (2023), which are equipped with the flagship products of a new generation of extended-range power, including the products of the new BEV high-voltage platform, and a medium-sized car priced at 200,000-300,000 yuan. That is to say, next year, everyone can see the ideal first car product.

Li Auto

Regarding the surrounding construction, from the ideal planning point of view, pure electric products are the focus of the next development, so this ideal also gives the news that they will have a special charge for the construction of charging piles, giving priority to the expressway. Looking at the whole pace, the ideal is to focus on accurately positioning products to win market success, and to form a technical upgrade in this mode. This operation is very similar to Apple’s, planning a price level, and launching demand products such as iPhone13, iPhone13 Pro, iPhone13 Pro MAX with the help of a major technical platform.

Li ONE

Ideal positioning in market segments is indeed better than some new forces, and it is also worth learning from some "domestic luxury brands". After all, they always like to pile up their configurations and cover everything, but they don’t know what kind of theme products they will present in the end.

Savior of the sharp world? Ford’s new SUV is once again exposed, which may be the successor of Sharp.

Since the beginning of last year, Ford has been exposed a new car overseas, that is, the new Fusion.

Ford’s new SUV spy photos

According to the previous cognition, Fusion is actually an overseas model of domestic Mondeo, but the new Fusion previously exposed is an SUV. Now a new generation of Mondeo in China is also on the market, and overseas Mondeo has stopped production. In the long run, this product makes people very confused: Who is it? At present, we can only think of it as Ford’s brand-new SUV. Recently, foreign media have taken spy photos of the brand-new Fusion Active (unnamed) overseas. According to it, it is likely to be the successor of Ford EDGE (sharp in China), which may be unveiled at the end of this year.

In this exposure, the new Fusion is still covered with thick camouflage, and it is almost difficult for us to get a trace of appearance information from it. According to foreign media, it also uses Ford’s brand-new design style, which is somewhat similar to the domestic Ford EVOS. It is expected to have a larger size. In the net and through headlights.

Ford’s new SUV spy photos

Judging from the outline and proportion of its body, it is a bit like the shape of Ford Lingyu in China, especially the decoration of the central raised part of the tail is very conspicuous, which has a high similarity with the design of Ford Lingyu. However, judging from the direction of the taillight that has not been assembled at the tail, it is very different from Ford Lingyu, but according to this figure, it is expected to have a seven-seat layout.

As the leading third-party automobile quality evaluation platform in China, Chezhi. com launched the column of "New Car Commodity Evaluation" based on massive automobile product test samples and scientific data model. Every month, according to several models on sale that have been listed in China for less than two years, and the mileage is less than 5,000 kilometers, through the two dimensions of objective data and subjective feelings, senior appraisers use professional equipment to systematically test and evaluate, so as to comprehensively display and analyze the overall commodity level of new cars in the domestic automobile market and provide objective and true opinions for consumers when purchasing vehicles.

As a pioneer of its own brand’s impact on the high-end electric car market, the extremely krypton ZEEKR 001 has been a topic model in the new energy automobile circle since its listing. Whether it is a rare hatchback shape, rich intelligent configuration or a hard-core acceleration performance of 3.8 seconds, it all shows its extraordinary product charm. According to the data of Chezhi. com, as of April 2022, there were 27 complaints about the pure quality of 2021 ZEEKR 001, and the short-term word-of-mouth performance is worthy of recognition. Then, can the 2021 extremely krypton ZEEKR 001 continue the existing word-of-mouth performance? Will there be some new problems that ordinary consumers can’t find? This issue of "new car commodity evaluation" will clear the fog for you, and restore a real 2021 extremely krypton ZEEKR 001 through objective data and subjective feelings.

I. Objective data

This project mainly shows the new car’s commercial performance in an all-round way in the form of objective data through the field tests of 12 items, such as body technology, paint film level, air quality inside the car, noise inside the car, static vibration inside the car, parking radar and lighting/vision.

In the process of body testing, 10 key parts are selected for the whole vehicle, and 3 key points are selected for each key part to measure, so as to evaluate the uniformity of gaps in each key part. From the test results, although the average gap data of most parts of the 2021 extremely krypton ZEEKR 001 vehicle is at a relatively low level, there are still cases where the gap values of some parts are too large. The maximum gap value is located at the joint between the right front fender and the engine compartment cover, reaching 4.4mm, which leads to the gap uniformity on the left and right sides is inconsistent, and the gap uniformity in other parts is good, and the process level is basically satisfactory.

In the test of paint film level, it can be found from the test results that the average thickness of paint film of 2021 extreme krypton ZEEKR 001 vehicle is about 154.5μm, and the data level has exceeded the standard value of advanced vehicles (120μm -150μm). According to the test data of key parts, the engine hood has reached the standard value of advanced cars, the front and rear doors are higher than the standard value of intermediate cars, and the average paint film thickness of other parts is over 150 μ m. Although the coating thickness of the whole vehicle is worthy of recognition, there is still room for improvement in coating uniformity.

In the test of indoor air quality, the vehicle was placed in an internal ground parking lot with few vehicles. No formaldehyde was detected in the 2021 extremely krypton ZEEKR 001 vehicle, and the content of PM2.5 and other inhalable particles was relatively low, which was in line with the "Guide to Air Quality Evaluation in Passenger Cars" jointly issued by the former Ministry of Environmental Protection and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (national standard GB/T27630 of the People’s Republic of China)

In the static noise test, the 2021 extremely krypton ZEEKR 001 shows excellent quietness in the car at rest, and the test result has dropped to the lowest value of the test instrument of 30dB, which can almost be isolated from the external environment. Because of the motor drive, there will be no obvious noise after the vehicle is started, and it will not cause any interference to the occupants in the vehicle.

In the air conditioning noise test, the test instrument is placed about 10cm away from the air outlet of the air conditioner, and then the air volume of the air conditioner is increased from small to large, and the noise value of the driver’s position in different gears is measured. According to the actual measurement, the air conditioning of the 2021 extremely krypton ZEEKR 001 is divided into five grades. When the highest grade is turned on, the measured noise value is 70.3dB, which is still in the tolerable range of human body and will not cause too much interference to drivers and passengers.

After actual measurement, the vibration values of the steering wheel and the front and rear seats of the 2021 pole krypton ZEEKR 001 are all zero at idle speed. However, under load, the vibration values of all the tested parts are slightly increased, but the somatosensory sensation is not obvious.

In addition, we also tested the parking radar, lighting/vision, control system, tire hub, sunroof, seat and trunk. After testing, the overall performance of the 2021 extremely krypton ZEEKR 001 has reached the level of the same class. The steering wheel and driver’s seat have a wide adjustment range, which can adapt to drivers of different heights, and the rear seat backrest also supports electric adjustment, which makes the ride comfort satisfactory. In addition, the hatchback design ensures a considerable trunk opening area. However, during the test, the expert jury found that the skylight area of the 2021 extremely krypton ZEEKR 001 was small and could not be opened, and its practicality was average. In addition, there is a big gap between the distance recently suggested by the rear radar and the experience value, so you need to pay more attention when reversing.

Second, subjective feelings

This project is evaluated subjectively by several judges according to the actual static and dynamic performance of new cars. Among them, the static aspect includes four parts: external, internal, spatial and human-computer interaction; Dynamic aspects include acceleration, braking, steering, driving experience and driving safety. Finally, the total score is given by comprehensively referring to the subjective evaluation opinions given by the judges, so as to reflect the actual performance of the new car in terms of commodity from the perspective of subjective feelings.

In the evaluation of external feelings, the 2021 model ZEEKR 001 performed well as a whole, and was highly affirmed by the expert jury in terms of lighting configuration and the convenience of opening the electric engine room. The test model is equipped with matrix full LED headlights, which have ideal illumination brightness and range, and support functions such as automatic headlights, adaptive far and near lights, and headlight delay turn-off. The opening mode of the electric engine room is very convenient. Just pull the switch twice, the hatch cover can automatically pop up, and because of the support of double hydraulic rods, the opening force is lighter.

In the internal evaluation, the 2021 ZEEKR 001 adopts the mainstream dual-screen design, and the center console only retains some commonly used function buttons. The irregularly shaped center console and the small and exquisite shift lever create a touch of luxury. In terms of materials, the center console is made of a variety of materials, the upper and lower parts are soft materials, and the special texture decoration in the middle area looks quite textured.

The 2021 ZEEKR 001 provides four USB ports, of which two USB ports in the front row are located in the central armrest box, including a TYPE-A and a TYPE-C port, and the rear USB port is located under the air outlet of the air conditioner, which is also a TYPE-A and a TYPE-C port to meet the charging requirements of different devices. Although the front central armrest cannot be moved, it can provide sufficient support for the driver’s elbow because of its considerable length and width.

In terms of ride space, the overall performance of the 2021 extremely krypton ZEEKR 001, which is positioned as a medium and large car, is satisfactory, and the leg space of the front and rear passengers is sufficient. However, due to the slip-back style, the head space performance in the back row is obviously inferior to that in the front row. In terms of storage space, there are relatively many storage spaces in the front row of the 2021 extremely krypton ZEEKR 001, and the hollow design is adopted under the central passage of the front row, which is convenient for storing large items. However, due to the narrow distance between the central passage and the seat cushion, it is a little inconvenient to take items. In addition, the front cup holder adopts cylindrical design, and a slightly larger cup/water bottle cannot be put in.

The 15.4-inch central control panel is equipped with Qualcomm Xiaolong 820AP chip +5G signal network, which runs smoothly. The UI design style of the vehicle system is simple, the operation logic is similar to that of a smart phone, and most functions are integrated in the central control panel. In terms of human-computer interaction, the intelligent voice system can not only support the opening of wake-up words, but also realize the operation without wake-up words in specific scenes, and the controllable functions of intelligent voice are also very rich, including multimedia, navigation, air conditioning, windows and skylights, which can be operated by voice. Unfortunately, voice interaction does not support continuous dialogue mode.

The 2021 Krypton ZEEKR 001 tested this time is equipped with a single motor system, with a total motor output of 200kW and a total torque of 384N·m, which is ahead of the same class. With excellent dynamic parameters, the vehicle starts and accelerates very quickly, and the adjustment of the accelerator pedal is not particularly sensitive, creating a comfortable driving atmosphere.

The test model provides three driving modes, except that the sports mode can give you a stronger sense of pushing your back, the other two modes have little intuitive difference, and even in the economic mode, overtaking can still be done easily.

In terms of braking performance, although the front section of the 2021 extreme krypton ZEEKR 001 brake pedal is soft, the actual braking force release is still relatively linear. The energy recovery system supports three-level adjustment and is equipped with a single pedal mode, which can meet the driving needs of different consumers.

Although the body length is close to 5 meters, thanks to the variable steering ratio, the vehicle steering is more flexible. The overall size of the steering wheel is moderate, while the shape is relatively thick, with relatively accurate directivity, and the control feel is excellent.

The 2021 extreme krypton ZEEKR 001 adopts the combination of the front double wishbone independent suspension and the rear multi-link independent suspension, and the overall adjustment of the suspension is biased towards comfort, which can fully filter the impact caused by the fine bumps on the road surface. However, when encountering large ups and downs, the suspension performance is somewhat "stiff" and the comfort will be slightly reduced.

The 2021 Krypton ZEEKR 001 is equipped with a comprehensive driver assistance function. ACC adaptive cruise supports intelligent car following in full speed domain, and can realize braking and automatic start, with timely system response, no sudden acceleration and braking, and a more comfortable experience. The lane departure warning system is more accurate for lane line identification. When the vehicle deviates from the driving lane, it can give feedback through sound, vibration and display, and the degree of intervention is slight, so there will be no situation of "grabbing" the steering wheel with the driver.

summary

Based on the above test results, it is concluded that the overall performance of the 2021 extreme krypton ZEEKR 001 in terms of objective data and subjective feelings has reached the expectations of the expert jury. On the objective data level, the overall performance of body technology and paint film coating thickness is excellent, but the gap treatment and coating uniformity of individual parts are not good, and the skylight lighting area and radar spacing control need to be optimized and improved. Subjectively, the 2021 ZEEKR 001 has shown extraordinary strength in lighting configuration, interior materials and human-computer interaction, but there is still room for improvement in driving comfort. On the whole, the commercial performance of the 2021 extreme krypton ZEEKR 001 is at the upstream level among the tested models of the same class.

In daily travel, in the high-speed driving scene, some novice drivers may suddenly panic if they encounter road side construction. At this time, M5 will monitor the lateral direction in real time. When it is detected that the obstacles on the side of the road have collision risk, the system will automatically trigger the lateral obstacle collision prevention (LOCP) and intervene in the direction, thus ensuring the driving safety, relieving the driver’s nervousness and bringing a relaxed travel experience.

At the same time, the forward AEB (automatic emergency braking) braking response ability of the Wujie M5 has been further improved, and its maximum braking speed can reach 120km/h, which is beneficial to further improving the travel safety. Many people may have encountered stationary vehicles and staff maintaining green belts on high speed. When the driver found the danger, he missed the reaction time and there was a safety hazard. Fortunately, the improvement of AEB response ability of M5 will greatly improve the safety and accompany you to get home safely.

High-level intelligent driving that can be opened all over the country, and a smarter travel experience.

As the first model in the Wenjie family equipped with HUAWEI ADS 2.0 advanced intelligent driving system, Wenjie M5 series brings an advanced intelligent driving experience infinitely close to L3, which is highly praised by the industry and users and has the reputation of "double intelligent ceiling". Based on cutting-edge technology and innovative ideas, opening up a new high-level intelligent driving track is changing the development pattern of smart car industry in China.

In addition to high-level intelligent driving, Wenjie M5 continues to bring smarter travel experience to users through OTA upgrade. Wenjie M5 has realized the function of high-order intelligent driving in urban areas without relying on high-precision maps, covering almost all roads in cities across the country, and the available sections of public roads such as national roads, county roads, township roads and counties and townships are as high as 99%. Whether driving on unfamiliar roads in cities, suburban go on road trip, or even on some country lanes, you can start the NCA intelligent pilot to reach your destination quickly and accurately, and truly "the whole country can drive, and the more you drive, the better you drive".

At the same time, the lane cruise assist (LCC) of the M5 has also evolved into LCC Plus. When people are driving at urban intersections, they can "observe" the red street lights by themselves through the vehicle perception system. When they encounter red lights, they will slow down and stop, and when the green lights up, they will pass steadily. This function further improves the driving convenience and safety, and makes commuting easier.

Gold and silver cups are not as good as users’ reputation. Up to now, the strong product hard strength of the M5 series in Wenjie has been recognized by more than 130,000 users, and it has also won many industry awards including "the first quality of new energy medium-sized SUV in 2023". The new M5, which will be released on April 23rd, not only has a more fashionable design, but also believes that the new car will continue its multi-dimensional active safety, excellent intelligent driving ability and solid materials. Let’s wait and see.

The joy of asking car owners to consciously be promoted to "Huawei car owners" has not passed, and Ren Zhengfei’s big mouth is ruthlessly drawn in their faces.

Today (March 31st), according to Cailian Comprehensive 36Kr, Huawei once again issued a decision announcement on the automobile business. The announcement was signed by Ren Zhengfei, founder and chairman of Huawei, and once again stressed that "Huawei does not build cars" and "valid for 5 years". In addition, Ren Zhengfei also put forward strict requirements for the exposure of Huawei logo in automobile design. "Emphasize that Huawei /HUAWEI cannot be used in vehicle promotion and appearance." The source said, and emphatically pointed out, "you can’t use’ Huawei asking the world’ and ‘HUAWEI AITO’. "

On the 8th of this month, AITO was still on its official Weibo."Openly" turned the familiar "AITO asking the world" into "HUAWEI asking the world".What is even more imaginative is that the Weibo was forwarded by the official account of "HUAWEI Terminal": "Where you want to go, Huawei asks about the car and always accompanies you!"

A small change in the name, in addition to causing the carnival of sales in the world that "Huawei cars can finally be called aboveboard", has once again aroused the N-degree conjecture of "Huawei makes cars":Is this time, Huawei really going to build a car by itself?

In fact, this name change is just a standardized adjustment of the marketing port between Huawei and Cyrus Auto, and it does not involve the adjustment of the cooperative relationship between the two parties.

Contrary to the outside world’s speculation that the relationship between the two parties is "broken", on February 25 this year, Huawei and Celestial Automobile also signed an agreement to deepen joint business in Shenzhen: Huawei terminals play a leading role in market and user demand insight and define new products; Sailis continues to do a good job in the iterative evolution of existing models, enhance the product experience, and launch a new platform for the future. The first flagship model under the new platform is scheduled to be released in 2023, which will be equipped with a high-level intelligent driving system, and a number of new models will be launched in succession.

At the signing ceremony, Yu Chengdong, managing director of Huawei, consumer BG CEO and smart car solution BU CEO, said:"Sailis is the earliest car company with the deepest investment and the most product models in Huawei".On other public occasions, Yu Chengdong has repeatedly stated that the cooperation between Huawei and Celeste will not decrease, but will increase instead of decrease.

The person who can have the first voice in Huawei is Ren Zhengfei’s father after all.

No matter how much Yu Dazui scampered, before a paper announcement signed and signed by the boss, he only sounded the golden bell and retired. Speaking of it, Yu Dazui’s psychology is better than that. Go back to headquarters to calm down a few words.Just watch Tesla reverse the car and hit the stone pier several times.

However, users who have only been "Huawei car owners" for 23 days may not be able to psychologically accept Huawei’s announcement with such a firm attitude and such a blunt tone. As soon as the gang put the "HUAWEI”logo purchased from a third party on the car’s ass, the" April Fool’s joke "was played on themselves, which was like" Wolf Warriors only has myself ".

Build a car and get stuck in Huawei’s neck

Is it difficult to build a car smoothly in China?

Ask the three electric brothers: Li Bin, Li Xiang and He Xiaopeng, and the answer is definitely "difficult, too difficult". However, everyone did not expect that this matter was not simple for HUAWEI, who had "Huawei before the day". According to incomplete statistics, in the past five years, Huawei has said nine times that it will not build cars through Ren Zhengfei, rotating chairman and internal documents.

For example, in January 2019, Ren Zhengfei publicly stated that Huawei will never build a car. In May of the same year, Ren Zhengfei also said that "Huawei will not switch tracks casually"; In 2020, Wang Jun, president of Huawei BU, said at the mobile phone new product launch conference that "Huawei does not build cars, but helps car companies build good cars"; In November, 2020, Ren Zhengfei said sternly: Whoever makes suggestions to build a car and interfere with the company in the future can be transferred from his post and look for another post; In May 2021, the official account of Huawei Group issued the "Statement on Huawei not making cars"; At the end of 2021, Yu Chengdong reiterated that "Huawei does not build cars" at Huawei’s winter flagship conference; At the 2021 financial report conference, Guo Ping, the rotating chairman, reiterated that Huawei does not build cars.

This time today, it happened to be the 10th time that Huawei said "no cars".

Is it difficult to build a 5G mobile phone? It is very difficult when the chip is stuck in the neck by Americans. However, Huawei has never said "no 5G mobile phones". Although we can use the 4G+ HarmonyOS system to provide a practical experience beyond 5G, we finally broke through many blockade lines and completed the landing of 5G mobile phones equipped with 5G chips.

But in the car-building track, Huawei gives people the impression that it is uncharacteristically evasive, often rushing to put the hat of "a first-class retired performance artist" on its head.

Why? Because you build your own car, there are too many links to be stuck: qualification, factory, production line, supply chain and so on. But if you don’t build a car, when you are a supplier, you can turn around and get stuck in the neck of the car company. Instead of paying money out of your own pocket and laying out design, production, channels, marketing and services from 0 to 1, it is better to empower cars and be a porter of money in the pockets of car companies.

After all, it is well known that people who make cars have money.

In fact, Huawei did this long before asking the world. From 2013 to 2015, Huawei launched the in-vehicle communication module ME909T, which was quickly installed on the production models of world-renowned automobile brands such as Audi and Mercedes-Benz. In 2014, Huawei’s car networking division developed the MirrorLink App based on Huawei’s mobile phone, and German Volkswagen immediately announced that the system would be used by domestic and imported people. In 2018, Huawei heavily modified a Porsche Panamera at the Mobile World Congress, enabling it to automatically identify the surrounding environment and make the most appropriate driving actions. For example, it was once boasted by the new forces of China, but it has not been thoroughly studied until today. "Emergency avoidance"; In 2019, Huawei released HiCar and HarmonyOS OS at the developer conference;

In 2020, Huawei released the smart car solution brand Hi: Huawei Inside; In 2021, Huawei Inside debuted on the Huawei HI version of Beiqi Extreme Fox Alpha S. In the same year, Aouita 11, another model in Huawei Inside mode, appeared. This year, the Celestial SF5 was not cold, and the new brand AITO Wenjie appeared with the latest HarmonyOS smart cockpit model M5, which is a production car that Huawei deeply participated in defining the whole process of design, production and manufacturing, and it is also the model with the highest "Chinese content" on the market so far.

The three paths for Huawei to build cars were also recognized by the public after the specific models landed:

1. Parts supply mode: traditional Tier 1 provides standardized parts, such as communication modules, motors, T-boxes, etc.

Second, the solution integration HI mode: traditional Tier 0.5, providing smart car full-stack solutions, MDC computing platform, intelligent cockpit, intelligent driving, intelligent Che Yun, etc.;

Third, intelligent car selection mode: traditional Tier 0, providing parts and solutions support, deeply participating in the whole process of product design, quality management, brand marketing and terminal sales.

Yu Chengdong is the leading intelligent car selection mode, while BAIC Polar Fox and Aouita are the HI modes at Wang Jun’s helm.

Different modes mean different "Chinese content". The level of "Chinese content" directly determines the brand’s position in the hearts of users and its sales performance in the market.

In the case that the complete delivery time is less than one year, the industry has made a cumulative sales of 78,000 units. Also in the first year, Weilai delivered 1.13 sets, Tucki delivered 16,600 sets, and the ideal delivered 32,600 sets, all of which didn’t ask much.

Behind the "explosion at birth", Yu Chengdong hosted a mysterious closed-door meeting. At the meeting, Yu Chengdong said: Huawei should not only help enterprises "build good cars", but also help them "sell good cars". "Not only help the horse, send a ride, but also participate in the whole process and deeply empower."

What do you mean by "full participation and deep empowerment"? Simply put, Huawei rolled up its sleeves and did everything, and Cyrus stepped back and became a mascot.

Appearance, cockpit, chassis, Sandian, car, audio, the core parts of these smart electric vehicles are all decided by Huawei. It’s not finished when the car is off the assembly line. Huawei directly drives the asking world to its own stores, let Huawei sell it in the first line, and endorse the asking world with Huawei’s brand power and sales channels.Where you can buy Huawei’s 4G mobile phone, you can buy the world.

BAIC Polar Fox and Aouita, which adopt HI mode, don’t have this treatment. In May, 2022, Beiqi Extreme Fox Alpha S HI version came by. Except for a "stunning" driver’s assistance test image, the reputation and sales of this car soon cooled down. A senior executive of BAIC Polar Fox also complained bitterly: After working with Huawei for so many years, people have gained a lot of voice. What have we got from BAIC?

BAIC got nothing, and Huawei got nothing. Wang Jun’s exit dealt a heavy blow to HI mode. At this stage, Huawei can maximize the empowerment of car companies and continue to make big money from the pockets of car companies, leaving only one smart car selection model.

Don’t let the car companies get away

On the road of smart car selection, Huawei has not gone smoothly this year. The most intuitive reaction is that the sales of the world have come down.

In January this year, the sales volume of the industry was 4,475 units, and in February, the sales volume fell to 3,505 units, which has been declining for two consecutive months. The pot in January can be thrown to the Spring Festival, but in February, the passenger car market rose both month-on-month and the "far ahead" sector fell against the market, which is somewhat unreasonable. What’s more, this is still the result handed over by the industry after the highest price reduction of 30,000 in January.

Source: Snow Leopard Finance and Economics

In the third week of March, the total sales volume of the industry was only 730 units. According to this estimate, the sales volume of the industry in March may have just climbed over 3,000 units, which was 500 units lower than that in February.It can be said that "last year’s sales were as fierce as a tiger, and this year’s look is in place."

After a short year of glory, the hometown of the literary circle has been almost stolen by all the effective forces that have been madly reducing prices. Go on, even the Volkswagen ID can’t be sold.

Everyone knows that Cyrus can’t carry it, and Huawei can’t be unaware of it, let alone put the "eggs" of making cars in the basket of the world. Jianghuai, Chery and Polar Fox have all joined the smart car selection model, which means that Celes is no longer Huawei’s "only child" in terms of product definition, core parts, supplier system, quality standards and sales service channels.

In the past, everyone said that they would buy a "Huawei car", but in fact they were going to buy a car. But after that, everyone said to buy a "Huawei car", and it is possible to buy Chery, Jianghuai, Extreme Fox or other brands.

You know, the more diluted the public awareness of "Huawei’s pro-son" in the world, the better the solution of smart car selection. It is Ren Zhengfei’s spring and autumn dream to live into Bosch in the era of smart cars, not Tesla.

By cooperating with more mainstream automobile brands, Huawei’s status as a top industrial chain supplier will be more recognized by the industry, and the bargaining power of large automobile companies and even international automobile companies will become stronger and stronger. This is the next big move that Huawei wants most.

Especially after falling out with Guangzhou Automobile Ai ‘an, Huawei is afraid that there will be another car company running away in the short term.

On the evening of March 27th, Guangzhou Automobile Group announced that the Ai ‘an AH8 project was changed from joint development with Huawei to independent development. Huawei will continue to participate in the development and cooperation of the company’s own brand models as an important supplier.The joint development mode between the two sides officially ended.

At the 19th China Automobile Marketing Summit in 2022, Xiao Yong, deputy general manager of Guangzhou Automobile Ai ‘an, publicly spoke out: "Huawei is a big-name supplier, and its price is relatively high and uncontrolled. We want to cooperate with Huawei, and we will find that there is basically no bargaining power."

Xiao Yong, Deputy General Manager of Guangzhou Automobile Ai ‘an

Huawei’s strength is evident in its ability to make large state-owned car companies accustomed to suppliers lose their bargaining power. However, such a powerful magic can only work in front of weak chicken car companies. After all, these car companies are counting on Cyrus’ story of Jedi rebound to reappear on themselves. Once faced with a BOSS-class car company with a large volume, a long history, a deep foundation and a tougher stance, Huawei may not dare to show its teeth too much.

These big car companies are not the first day to build and sell cars. In the past years, Huawei has not been "empowered" without you. Have I done it right?

Write it at the end

In the cooperation with Cyrus, Huawei has mastered the initiative in three aspects: first, all automobile data; Second, the calibration of vehicle core parameters; Third, the main sales channels.

To tell the truth, except for companies like Cyrus, few car companies are willing to give up their right to speak without reservation. Huawei is responsible for the calibration of car data and parameters, which is basically equivalent to handing over the soul and body of a car together, leaving only a few scattered skeletons to piece together.

Let Huawei sit in the living room for a while, show it to passers-by, and attract more people into the house. Car companies can’t be happier. But after sitting for a while, Huawei wants to be the owner of the house, and car companies will not agree as long as they are not stupid.

Car companies are willing to accept "the immortal of HarmonyOS car racing", but they will never accept "Huawei comes first, then there will be days".

Huawei hopes to stop the behavior of "asking for cars" to become "Huawei cars" and let car companies put their hearts back into their stomachs: we don’t build cars, we want to be good waiters for car companies.

As for whether car companies believe it or not, it’s hard to say. Anyway, SAIC Chen Hong certainly doesn’t believe it.

Beijing News Shell Financial News (Reporter Lin Zi) On February 26th, WeChat official account, the official WeChat of AITO, announced that M9 had started nationwide delivery.

It is understood that the delivery will be made according to the scheduled and confirmed delivery plan time. For example, users who book before the press conference and deliver the intention money before December 26, 2023 will start to deliver the vehicles as early as February 26. Xindading users are expected to start delivering vehicles in late May.

Can Huawei’s visual intelligence drive surpass Tesla? Pure vision confronts the dispute between cost and performance

Huawei HarmonyOS Ecological Spring Communication Conference was successfully held on the afternoon of April 11th. This conference focused on the new products of Zhijie S7 and MateBook. Zhijie S7, the first car built by Huawei and Chery based on HarmonyOS Zhixing model, was unveiled in November last year.

The intellectual community "returned to the furnace" after half a year, which attracted attention. Huawei chose to re-release it because of its Huawei visual intelligent driving system, which is the first time Huawei has launched a visual driving solution without lidar.

At the press conference, Yu Chengdong said that Huawei’s visual smart driver equipped with Zhijie S7 has surpassed Tesla, which is known as the "originator of vision", in real vehicle performance, showing strong confidence in its own scheme.

How does Huawei’s visual intelligence drive compete with Tesla’s visual intelligence drive on the premise of abandoning lidar? What kind of sensor does its technical strength come from? Huawei revealed the answer at the meeting.

Huawei officially released the first visual intelligent driving product-Huawei ADS Basic Edition. According to Yu Chengdong, the scheme can realize NCA intelligent driving navigation assistance on national expressways and urban expressways, including intelligent driving on and off ramps, coping with complex scenes such as road construction and cone-bucket diversion, and has certain ability to change lanes and avoid obstacles independently.

HUAWEI ADS basic edition is not equipped with laser radar, but realizes environmental perception through three millimeter-wave radars, 10 visual perception high-definition cameras and 12 ultrasonic radars, so as to build a visual intelligent driving scheme without laser radar.

At the press conference, Huawei ADS Basic Edition pointed directly at Tesla EAP(Enhanced Auto Pilot Enhanced Driver Assistance). Huawei claims that the comparative test results show that the coverage rate of Huawei’s visual intelligent driving is as high as 99.5%, the pass rate of ramp is 96%, and there is no degradation in the whole process. At the same time, it has the functions of intelligent speed regulation and identification of water horse cones. In contrast, the coverage rate of Tesla equipped with EAP is only 79%, the on-ramp pass rate is 68.75%, and it has been degraded 14 times, and it is impossible to identify obstacles of the opposite sex.

In terms of intelligent parking, Huawei’s visual intelligent driving has completely surpassed Tesla, which lacks support for different shapes, oblique rows and custom parking spaces.

As an optional function, Tesla EAP includes four functions: automatic lane change assistance, automatic navigation and driving assistance, intelligent calling and automatic parking, which need to be purchased at an extra cost. Tesla’s self-driving products are divided into three grades: BAP, EAP and FSD, of which BAP is the basic version and EAP is the enhanced assisted driving, and the two are free and charge $6,000 respectively. FSD is Tesla’s highest-level self-driving product, which has the functions of navigation-assisted driving, automatic lane change, automatic parking, intelligent calling, traffic signal recognition, and automatic turning of urban roads.

Zhijie S7 has launched five models, with the price range of 249,800 yuan to 349,800 yuan. Among the new models, the Ultra version uses a 100kWh battery pack, while the Max and Max+ versions have a price reduction of 20,000 yuan compared with the initial listing.

It is worth noting that Huawei Vision Smart Drive HUAWEI ADS Basic Edition is only installed in Zhijie S7 Pro rear drive long battery life version. In contrast, the version of Zhijie S7 Max with a price higher than 20,000 yuan is equipped with the same 192-line laser radar as that of Wenjie M9, with the longest detection distance of 250m, which is 20% higher than the industry average. Except for lidar, there is no difference in other configurations between the two models.

From this point of view, whether equipped with lidar has become the main difference between the basic version and the high-end version of Huawei’s ADS intelligent driving scheme, and the price difference between them is mainly reflected in this 192-line lidar.

What is the difference between Huawei Smart Drive with and without lidar? The former has enhanced its omni-directional anti-collision ability. After Zhijie S7 is equipped with laser radar, the effective range of forward active safety AEB is expanded to 4-150km/h, and the maximum braking speed is increased to 120 km/h; The effective range of lateral active safety is increased to 40-130km/h, and obstacles such as water horses can be actively identified.

The existence of lidar significantly improves the safety protection performance of vehicles, especially when dealing with emergencies such as "ghost probe". Previously, an owner of the M7 car in the border area encountered a "ghost probe" accident while driving at a speed of nearly 130km/h at high speed, and a pedestrian suddenly crossed the isolation belt and broke into the fast lane. Fortunately, Huawei’s intelligent driving system equipped with the M7 in Wenjie timely identified and took evasive measures to avoid the tragedy. This successful obstacle avoidance case is largely due to the lidar carried by the vehicle. Under extreme conditions, it is difficult to achieve such accurate perception only by visual sensors or human eyes.

In addition, the advanced version of HUAWEI ADS equipped with lidar has achieved wide coverage of roads in China, covering more than 40,000 towns and villages in China, including main roads, branch roads and even smaller roads. The third-party test data shows that the road coverage rate of the system has reached 99.56%. In contrast, the basic version of HUAWEI ADS-visual intelligent driving scheme is currently only applicable to NCA intelligent driving navigation assistance for national expressways and urban expressways.

Despite this, lidar is still recognized as the strongest sensor to achieve high-order assisted driving at this stage, even Huawei is no exception.

Why do some manufacturers choose to give up lidar? High cost is the main reason. Compared with the Zhijie S7Pro rear-drive long-life intelligent driving version, the Zhijie S7Max rear-drive long-life intelligent driving version is 20,000 yuan more expensive, mainly because of the addition of laser radar. Are consumers willing to pay for this?

In December, 2023, DJI Vehicle cooperated with Chery to launch the mass-produced model iCAR 03. This model adopts 7V pure vision sensor scheme, and the whole vehicle has no millimeter-wave radar or ultrasonic radar, making it the first automobile in China to realize high-order driving assistance function only by pure vision sensing hardware. With the help of pure visual sensor hardware, iCAR 03 also supports high-order assisted driving functions such as cross-layer memory parking, urban memory navigation and high-speed navigation.

The intelligent driving solution "Chengxing" launched by DJI Vehicle takes the inertial navigation stereo binocular sensor as the core sensing device, provides 7V and 9V pure vision sensor configurations, and supports extended multi-sensor such as lidar. This scheme can realize a variety of L2+ high-order intelligent driving functions with a computing power configuration as low as 32TOPS. Among them, the 7V sensor scheme includes an inertial navigation binocular vision sensor and five cameras, and the 9V sensor scheme adds two side-looking monocular cameras on this basis.

The hardware cost of DJI vehicle-mounted binocular vision intelligent driving scheme is extremely low. According to Shen Shaoshua, the person in charge of the vehicle in DJI, the hardware cost of the "Chengxing" platform can be reduced to less than 10,000 yuan, even reaching the level of 5,000 yuan, which is roughly equivalent to the price of a long-range lidar.

Both Chery’s cooperation with DJI Vehicle and Huawei’s cooperation have put forward a vision intelligent driving scheme without lidar version, which shows the active exploration and trade-off of domestic automobile manufacturers in the field of intelligent driving, and reveals how to introduce intelligent driving technology into a lower price range through trade-offs.

Although lidar is irreplaceable for its high-precision sensing ability, even Huawei acknowledges its watershed position between the basic version and the high-end version of HUAWEI ADS. However, with the intensification of competition in the automobile market, domestic automobile manufacturers are eager to introduce intelligent driving technology into a lower price range, and enterprises such as DJI and Huawei have achieved mass production of visual intelligent driving solutions that do not rely on lidar.

Therefore, reducing the cost of lidar has become a top priority.

On September 9th, CNMO noticed that a car blogger "ID- Hanchao" published a document saying that a company prohibited employees from buying LI. At the same time, the blogger exposed the announcement that a company prohibited employees from buying LI.

We can see that the information in the relevant announcement shows that Guangzhou Mike Industrial Co., Ltd. announced: "From today, the management of the company is forbidden to buy LI or commute to LI. According to the fifth point of the Code of Conduct in Chapter 2 of the Human Resources Management System, if the above behavior is found, it will be dismissed."

The company said that recently LI maliciously plagiarized the patent of our rear tent, and as the first company to put forward the concept of tram camping, it was being bullied by enterprises from LI in its most familiar industry. For example, some time ago, the ideal image quality and the ideal film pasting event. The company claims that LI is just an enterprise that deprives others of their ideals. As the bullied party, we should not support it, especially as the core personnel of the company.

At present, LI officials, the Ministry of Justice of LI and Li Xiang, CEO of LI, have not responded to this matter.

Not long ago, LI announced its market results in August 2023. The data shows that LI delivered a total of 34,914 new cars in that month, with a year-on-year increase of 663.8%, and the monthly delivery of three models of the ideal L series all exceeded 10,000. Since January 2023, the cumulative delivery volume in LI has reached 208,165 vehicles. Since the second quarter, LI has been the top-selling brand of high-end SUVs (including fuel vehicles and new energy) with a price of over 300,000 yuan in China for five consecutive months.
