[Text/Financial Circle Society & Dao Ge said Che Ma Jian Yu] With the deepening of electrification and intelligent transformation, the automobile market in China is undergoing drastic changes. In this context, the "three-year rejuvenation" action plan was released to accelerate the transformation to a new energy technology company.

?

For Chuanqi, 2024 is the first year of the "three-year rejuvenation" action plan. In this year, Chuanqi gained a lot, and the platform technologies such as I-GTEC2.0 and new EV+ new energy platform were released one after another, which strengthened the competitiveness of Chuanqi brand. In terms of products, the rejuvenation of MPV matrix makes Chuanqi’s transformation more emboldened.

Nowadays, the balance is insufficient in 2024, and how Chuanqi will perform in the coming year has also become the focus of attention. According to Chuanqi’s official news, based on the EV+ new energy platform, GAC Chuanqi will develop a series of models, covering all categories of cars, SUVs and MPVs. Chuanqi S7, the first mass production model of EV+ new energy platform, is expected to be officially launched in the first half of next year.

?

At the same time, Chuanqi’s smart driving performance in 2025 will go to a higher level. After all, in addition to the technical upgrade during the year, Chuanqi also received a strong support-Huawei.

?

MPV’s strong performance casts transformation confidence.

?

Through careful market insight, Chuanqi cut into MPV, a small track, and gradually became a big shot in this field. As of November, the cumulative sales volume of Chuanqi MPV has reached 700,000 vehicles, and China brand MPV is the only one. At the same time, Chuanqi’s MPV preservation rate continues to be the highest, and its M8, M6 and other models have ranked first in the multi-platform independent brand MPV preservation rate for many times in a row, which shows that users fully recognize Chuanqi’s MPV and are well-deserved MPV experts in China.

?

Chuanqi’s leading product insight and market position in MPV market have also become the foundation of Chuanqi’s transformation. In 2024, it was a great year for technical innovation of Guangzhou Automobile Chuanqi. I-GTEC2.0 was released, which was upgraded in all dimensions for chassis, power generation, intelligence and platform, and GMC400 super hybrid technology developed by the whole stack was launched, which was also launched and implemented in conjunction with Huawei’s innovation plan. All these technologies are empowering Chuanqi MPV, bringing consumers the smartest, most luxurious and most enjoyable travel experience.

In the past November, Chuanqi launched two hybrid MPVs, including the Grandmaster Super Hybrid Edition equipped with full-stack self-developed HEV hybrid technology and the Chuanqi New Energy E9 Supercharged Edition. These two cars represent Chuanqi’s latest achievements in HEV and PHEV hybrid technologies. However, this is not over yet. Chuanqi, which is in the first year of the "three-year rejuvenation" action plan, has more achievements, and these achievements also make Chuanqi’s 2025 more interesting.

?

Rich technological innovation, Chuanqi 2025, many bullets.

?

Since the beginning of this year, Chuanqi has made continuous breakthroughs in technology. In April this year, GAC Chuanqi launched EV+, a worry-free solution for users in the whole cycle and all scenarios, to solve the pain points of users in terms of energy replenishment, quality, safety and service. At the just-concluded Guangzhou Auto Show, GAC Chuanqi went further and brought a new EV+ new energy platform.

According to reports, the EV+ platform can realize the dual-mode parallelism of extended range and plug-in. Among them, GAC Super Extended Range Technology further reduces fuel consumption by 15%, improves pure battery life by 12%, and bid farewell to feeding troubles completely! At the same time, the EV+ platform adopts the mode of self-developed and cooperative two-wheel drive, and GAC has self-developed AI intelligent cockpit, end-to-end intelligent driving without drawing, and other pioneering technologies such as Huawei Gankun intelligent driving and HarmonyOS cockpit, which can bring more help to Chuanqi.

In terms of vehicle mechanical quality, Juxing intelligent control chassis under the EV+ platform is equipped with high-end technologies such as active preview multi-cavity suspension and Gankun U-turn, which reduces the chassis impact by 29%, comparable to millions of luxury cars, and improves the steering sensitivity by 25%. Big cars can also have the flexibility of small cars. At the same time, meet the most stringent safety standards around the world. These technical preparations also provide more bullets for Chuanqi’s market competition next year.

?

Based on the EV+ new energy platform, GAC Chuanqi will develop a series of models, covering all categories of cars, SUVs and MPVs. Chuanqi S7, the first mass production model of EV+ new energy platform, is expected to be officially launched in the first half of next year. Chuanqi S7 is also the first production car in the latest design language of GAC, and the first high-end intelligent driving model of Chuanqi. At the same time, in 2025, GAC Chuanqi is about to usher in a breakthrough year of intelligent driving. Among them, not only Chuanqi S7 has attracted much attention, but three models equipped with high-end intelligent driving will also be listed one after another. Next year, Chuanqi’s high-level intelligent driver will send four cars together, with full firepower!

　　Action program for building a socialist modern country in an all-round way

　　Jinlong Chen

　　The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China is a very important meeting held at the critical moment when the whole Party and the people of all ethnic groups in China have embarked on a new journey of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way and marched towards the goal of the second century. It is the prominent focus of the Party’s Report to the 20th CPC National Congress to plan the great practice of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way. The party’s Report to the 20th CPC National Congress has a large spaceIt systematically outlines the basic goals, strategic steps, major principles and specific practices of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, and points out the direction and path of action for building a socialist modern country in an all-round way.

　　On October 16th, 2022, The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China（CPC） opened in the Great Hall of the People. The Supreme Leader made a report to the General Assembly on behalf of the 19th Central Committee. Xinhua News Agency reporter Yue Yuewei photo

　　First, the establishment of the goal of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way　　

　　After the goal of building a well-off society in an all-round way is realized, the goal of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way is put on the agenda. Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Party has made clear the mission and task of the Communist Party of China (CPC) in the new era and new journey, that is, "to build a socialist modernization power in an all-round way, realize the goal of the second century, and comprehensively promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese modernization".This not only clarifies the goal of building a socialist modernization power in an all-round way, but also explains the relationship between Chinese modernization and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.　　

　　On building a socialist modern country in an all-round wayRelationship with building a socialist modern power in an all-round wayGenerally speaking, building a socialist modern country in an all-round way is a process, and building a socialist modern power in an all-round way is the goal and result of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way. Without the process, there will be no result.　　

　　We will build a socialist modernization power in an all-round way.And the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.Generally speaking, building a socialist modernization power in an all-round way is the basis and an important step in the historical process of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.　　

　　As far as the path of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is concerned,We should comprehensively promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese modernization. In his speech at the second plenary session of the Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed: "China should unswervingly promote Chinese modernization, promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese modernization, and constantly make new and greater contributions to mankind." The important thesis of "promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese modernization" has been clearly put forward here. The third historical resolution deliberated and adopted by the Sixth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee, when explaining the connotation of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, emphasized that "upholding and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics, the overall task is to realize socialist modernization and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation" and "promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese modernization". Realizing socialist modernization and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation constitute the general task of upholding and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, and they are closely linked one after another. Chinese-style modernization is the necessary stage and inevitable choice to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, laying a solid foundation and showing a bright future for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

　　After the practical exploration since the founding of New China, especially since the reform and opening up, the road of Chinese modernization has basically taken shape.In his speech at the Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader summarized the basic characteristics of Chinese modernization.That is, the modernization with huge population, the common prosperity of all people, the coordination of material civilization and spiritual civilization, the harmonious coexistence of man and nature, and the modernization of peaceful development.Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Communist Party of China reiterated these basic characteristics and further elaborated them.Chinese-style modernization not only conforms to the reality of China, embodies the law of socialist construction, but also conforms to the development trend of the times, embodies the law of human social development, and opens up the correct road to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Defining Chinese-style modernization as the path to comprehensively promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is conducive to rallying the forces to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, clarifying the relationship between Chinese-style modernization and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and dispelling the misunderstanding and prejudice of the international community in realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

　　II. Arrangement of Steps for Building a Socialist Modern Country in an All-round Way　　

　　Modernization is a broad and profound social change, involving all fields and aspects, and it is a long-term and phased process. The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China comprehensively analyzed the international and domestic situation and China’s development conditions, and planned the steps of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way in two stages.In the party’s Report to the 20th CPC National Congress, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader reiterated the strategic steps of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way:Basically realize socialist modernization from 2020 to 2035; From 2035 to the middle of this century, China will be built into a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious and beautiful socialist modernization power.这一战略安排体现了现代化的过程性和阶段性。

　　党的二十大报告对到二〇三五年我国发展的总体目标进行了具体厘定，从综合国力、科技发展、经济发展、政治发展、文化发展、社会建设、生态文明建设、国家安全、国防和军队现代化等方面，勾勒了基本实现社会主义现代化的轮廓。这一界定相对于党的十九届五中全会对基本实现社会主义现代化远景目标的谋划，增加了建成科技强国、农村基本具备现代生活条件、社会保持长期稳定等内容。同时，党的二十大报告提出了未来五年全面建设社会主义现代化国家开局起步的主要目标任务。如此，全面建设社会主义现代化国家的阶段性目标日渐清晰和具体。

　　三、全面建设社会主义现代化国家重大原则的确立　　

　　全面建设社会主义现代化国家是一项伟大而艰巨的事业。最高领袖总书记在党的二十大报告中指出，前进道路上，必须牢牢把握以下五条重大原则：坚持和加强党的全面领导、坚持中国特色社会主义道路、坚持以人民为中心的发展思想、坚持深化改革开放、坚持发扬斗争精神。This is the concrete application of the historical experience of the party’s hundred years of struggle and points out the practical principles of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way.

　　Chinese-style modernization is a modernization with a huge population, which requires strong party leadership in order to coordinate all kinds of relations, resolve all kinds of contradictions, and give full play to the institutional advantage of concentrating on doing great things. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out in the Party’s Report to the 20th CPC National Congress: "Chinese modernization is the socialist modernization led by the Communist Party of China (CPC)". This is the essential feature of Chinese modernization, and upholding and strengthening the overall leadership of the party is the practical principle of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way. Socialism with Chinese characteristics Road is the only way to create a better life for the people and realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and it is also the only way to build a socialist modern country in an all-round way. The party’s foundation lies in the people, its blood lies in the people, and its strength lies in the people. The people are the greatest strength of the party in governing and rejuvenating the country. Adhering to the people-centered development thought is the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s fundamental value position and the value orientation of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way. Reform and opening up is a key measure to determine the future and destiny of contemporary China. It is still necessary to persist in deepening reform and opening up in building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, and the process of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way is a process of deepening reform and opening up. The new process of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way has begun. China’s development has entered a period in which strategic opportunities and risk challenges coexist and uncertainties and unpredictable factors increase. Various "black swan" and "grey rhinoceros" incidents may occur at any time. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out in the Party’s Report to the 20th CPC National Congress,"We must enhance our sense of urgency, adhere to the bottom line thinking, be prepared for danger in times of peace, prepare for a rainy day, and prepare for a major test of high winds, high waves and even stormy waves." Building a socialist modern country in an all-round way needs to persist in carrying forward the spirit of struggle.The "Five Major Principles" are not only the major principles of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, but also the practical requirements of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way.

　　Fourth, the planning of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way　　

　　According to the inherent law of Chinese modernization, Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Party made a concrete plan for the practice of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way:High-quality development is the primary task of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way; Education, science and technology and talents are the basic and strategic supports for building a socialist modern country in an all-round way; People’s democracy is the life of socialism and the proper meaning of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way; Adhere to the rule of law in an all-round way, promote the construction of China ruled by law, and build a socialist modern country in an all-round way on the track of the rule of law; To build a socialist modern country in an all-round way, we must adhere to the road of cultural development in Socialism with Chinese characteristics; Insist on safeguarding and improving people’s livelihood in development, encourage joint efforts to create a better life, and constantly realize people’s yearning for a better life; Respecting nature, conforming to nature and protecting nature are the inherent requirements of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way; Promote the modernization of the national security system and capabilities, and resolutely safeguard national security and social stability; Accelerating the building of the people’s army into a world-class army is a strategic requirement for building a socialist modern country in an all-round way; Promote world peace and development and build a community of human destiny; The key to building a socialist modern country in an all-round way and promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation lies in the party. These important conclusions,The practice of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way in the next five years or even longer is deployed, which actually points out the practical path of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way and shows the glorious prospect of building a socialist modern power in an all-round way.

　　In a word, Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Communist Party of China has made forward-looking thinking, overall planning and strategic layout for building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, which has become the action program for building a socialist modern country in an all-round way in the new era.

Comfort configuration is often linked to the quality of a car. Of course, the higher the comfort configuration, the more pleasant the passenger experience, which can give the car a higher evaluation. What I brought to my riders today is. Let’s take a look at its performance.

Let’s take a look at the appearance of the BMW 8 Series. The front of the BMW 8 Series looks very domineering and cool. Combined with the fashionable headlights, the visual effect coincides with the positioning of the whole vehicle. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, automatic opening and closing, adaptive far and near light, automatic steering, delayed closing and so on. Come to the side of the car, the car body size is 4857MM*1902MM*1350MM, the car uses fashionable and atmospheric lines, the side looks very round and lovely, with large-sized thick-walled tires, the shape is quite simple. In the design of the rear end, the overall shape of the BMW 8 Series rear end echoes the front end, and the taillights are very calm, and the overall shape is still very attractive.

Sitting in the car, the interior of BMW 8 Series looks very spiritual and makes people feel very soft. The steering wheel of the car is very clean and made of leather, and everything looks very dynamic and lively. From the central control point of view, the central control screen with 12.3-inch touch-sensitive LCD makes the interior design quite layered, and the details are still in place. Let’s take a look at the dashboard and seats again. The dashboard design is remarkable, giving people a very young feeling. The car uses leather seats, which are wide and thick, improving the ride experience of drivers and passengers.

BMW 8 Series is equipped with an automatic manual transmission (AT) gearbox, with an acceleration time of 5.5s per 100 kilometers, which has good power performance and is completely OK for daily use.

Looking at the configuration, the BMW 8 Series is equipped with car networking, driving mode selection, remote control key, interior atmosphere light, engine start and stop and other configurations.

OK！ Next, let’s sum up. The car introduced today is remarkable in terms of space, configuration and power, and home travel is also a good helper.

　　It is imperative for Chang ‘an, which reshuffles its cards, to accelerate new energy sources.

　　Sub-brands play a phased role from appearance to departure. The last stage has come to an end and they are ready for the next stage.

　　At the end of the year, Changan X5 PLUS and X7 PLUS, two classic models of Changan Auchan, have been updated one after another, but the brand-new V-shaped logos of the two cars are very eye-catching and adopt a brand-new naming method. It seems that everything points to the return of the new car to the brand sequence of Changan Automobile. Where will the Auchan brand go?

　　In 2018, Changan Auchan was born. With the blessing of Changan brand and the accuracy of positioning, it quickly occupied a seat in domestic second-line independent brands and harvested in the low-end market.

　　Changan’s joint venture brands are becoming more and more obvious. Changan has built the Auchan brand with the strength of the brand, and Auchan has helped Changan Automobile to move smoothly into the passenger car market.

　　In the next three years, Changan Auchan entered a golden age. If it is pessimistic, it seems to be the last carnival of fuel vehicles, because the development of China automobile soon reached a turning point.

　　Behind the Shuang Sheng, the fuel car is shrinking silently.

　　In 2022, Rao, Changan Auchan, who still made a lot of money in the field of fuel vehicles, realized that this was not a long-term solution, so he launched Auchan Z6 and the hybrid model Auchan Z6 iDD, in order to get out of the comfort zone and want to inject new energy into Changan Auchan brand.

　　However, the injected new energy force is in conflict with the low-end market where it is located, and the premium brought by new technologies and the existing audience groups begin to contradict, and soon Changan Auchan, who once climbed all the way, began to slow down.

　　As a fuel model, Auchan Z6 has not reproduced the excellent performance of Auchan X7 and X5 since its launch. However, the hybrid model Auchan Z6 iDD did not arouse much splash. In the final analysis, it is the mismatch between technology and pricing. The plug-in hybrid in the market has already appeared the standard answer like BYD, so Auchan is even more silent.

　　It never rains but it pours. This year, the fuel car market began to shrink, and it was very obvious. In 2022, the sales volume of passenger cars in China was 23.563 million, a year-on-year increase of 9.5%.

　　Among them, new energy vehicles sold 6.887 million vehicles in the whole year, up 93.4% year-on-year, and the market share increased to 25.6%, up from 12.1% in the previous year. In other words, in 2022, the sales volume of passenger cars in China will increase by 9.5% year-on-year, and the role of new energy vehicles is the biggest.

　　From the sales data, the sales volume of fuel vehicles decreased by more than 2 million units in 2022. However, Chang ‘an’s 2022 answer sheet hit a new high in five years. It is worth noting that Changan Automobile also disclosed the main subsidiaries and shareholding companies that affected the company’s net profit by more than 10% in 2022. Specifically, Aouita lost 2.015 billion yuan, Changan New Energy lost 3.196 billion yuan and Changan Ford lost 2.449 billion yuan.

　　But the reality of the market is that no matter how hard we try to absorb nutrients, it is limited, especially when the market is shrinking.

　　Therefore, the weakness of Changan Auchan this year is becoming more and more obvious, and the shrinking market has caused many brands to start to cut prices on a large scale. The most serious impact of this year’s price war is the low-priced market, because the price itself is already very low, but the price above will be under pressure, so the impact on Changan Auchan’s fuel vehicles this year can be imagined.

　　New energy sources are cutting prices, old first-line fuel vehicles are cutting prices, and second-line Auchan’s living space is constantly being compressed, so the beginning of head pressure is the beginning of the disappearance below.

　　Reflected in the sales volume, the sales volume of Changan Auchan brand in November 2023 was 22,526 vehicles, up 32.7% year-on-year and down 19.9% quarter-on-quarter.

　　The chain of single products is also declining. In November, the sales volume of Changan Auchan X5 PLUS was 5,771 units, down 7.97% from the previous month. However, it accounted for 28.83% of Changan automobile sales, and its ranking in SUV sales dropped by 4 places compared with last month.

　　It can be seen that Changan Auchan is still a pillar for Changan brand in the fuel vehicle sector, but it will inevitably be slightly affected when the whole market begins to compress.

　　This means it’s time to shuffle again.

　　The old does not go, the new does not come.

　　This wave of Auchan’s return to Chang ‘an may mean that Chang ‘an is carrying out brand reconstruction and sequence rejuvenation. In fact, from the beginning of this year, Changan has been making adjustments, starting with new energy vehicles and launching a multi-brand strategy.

　　Deep Blue announced that it would change its name to "Deep Blue Automobile", or it would change from Changan to an independent operation mode, similar to the relationship between Geely and Krypton Automobile. The official said, "Changan Deep Blue was changed to Deep Blue Car to make the brand clearer, and nothing else has changed."

　　In the second half of the year, Changan Qiyuan was officially released. Changan Automobile’s new energy will become a parallel pattern of Qiyuan, Deep Blue and Aouita. Qiyuan is different from Aouita and Deep Blue. Both of them have Changan as the largest shareholder, but Qiyuan is a series of brands hatched by Changan Automobile, which is 100% owned by Changan Automobile. This means that Qiyuan, a "son" in the field of new energy, has higher autonomy.

　　The new energy field pushes three in one breath, and the brand in the fuel vehicle field returns, and the focus of Changan is clear at a glance. It seems that the three brands cover almost all the current new energy power scenarios, and Aouita and Deep Blue also have the advantage of intelligence with the help of Huawei. But in fact, there is no strong profit cow in Chang ‘an’s new energy.

　　Let’s start with Aouita, who has made his debut for the longest time. Last week, there was a major personnel change in Aouita, and Zhu Huarong, Party Secretary and Chairman of Changan Automobile, served as Chairman of Aouita Science and Technology. Zhu Huarong’s appointment is an important manifestation of his great attention to Aouita.

　　As the "eldest son", Aouita shoulders the responsibility of Changan to attack the high-end field of new energy, so Changan will spare no effort to pull Huawei, Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited and other allies to pour a lot of resources, technology and funds into Aouita. However, the sales volume and cognition did not seem to break out. In the first 11 months of this year, the highest monthly sales volume in Aouita was only 2,825 vehicles, and the sales volume in other months remained at around 1,000 vehicles. It seems that the target of 100,000 vehicles can only be achieved less than one fifth.

　　Therefore, Aouita 12 tried to break through the bottleneck, and the result is still unknown. Changan’s new energy rhythm broke out this year, and the mid-range dark blue car and the low-end Changan Qiyuan were sorted out successively, but some of them fell behind.

　　Compared with several other independent brands, both the main brand and the new series are somewhat slow. The leading BYD is even catching up with Tesla this year. It is predicted that BYD accounts for 17% of the global pure tram market, and it is expected to surpass it in the fourth quarter of this year and become the first in the world.

　　In the first 11 months, the cumulative sales volume of Guangzhou Automobile Ai ‘an was 434,000 units, and the growth rate in the first half of the year was amazing. Geely’s five products in three years have sold about 94,000 vehicles as of November this year. Combined with the new models launched at present, it is hopeful to complete the total sales of 120,000 vehicles in 2023.

　　In contrast, Aouita delivered 21,483 units in the first 11 months, while Deep Blue delivered 122,000 units in the first 11 months. It’s not a remarkable achievement. I don’t know if I can turn the situation around with Aouita’s 12 big break of 20,000 vehicles.

　　Changan’s iron triangle of new energy has already begun to take shape, but it will take time for the "three carriages" to be quickly accepted by the market. According to the plan, Changan Automobile will have 27 new energy products in 2025, among which Changan Qiyuan will launch 10 new digital intelligent evolution new automobile products. At the same time, Deep Blue Auto will launch 6 models and 4 models from Aouita, totaling more than 20 heavyweight products. The sales volume of new energy reached 1.2 million vehicles, accounting for 40%, and by 2030, the sales volume will reach 2.4 million vehicles, accounting for 60%.

　　Although the plan is beautiful, Chang ‘an’s fuel is under pressure, and new energy has not yet broken through the shackles and ushered in an outbreak. Therefore, Changan carefully adjusted the chessboard, further reclaimed the brand of fuel vehicles, and accelerated the development of new energy, which may be Changan’s main plan for 2024.

　　Auchan’s rebranding into Chang ‘an seems to indicate the future in which independent fuel brands will gradually shrink.

Dear friends, have you ever been worried about choosing a car? AT, CVT, DCT, these terms are dazzling. Today, I will give you a general idea of the difference between these gearboxes, so as to help you not be confused when choosing a car.

1. Manual gearbox (MT)

First of all, we have to talk about the manual gearbox, which is MT. This kind of gearbox needs us to do it ourselves and shift gears according to factors such as speed and speed. It’s like a "hands-on" friend, which needs us to worry more. But it is this "hurry-scurry" that makes many people feel that MT is a bit troublesome. Moreover, many novice drivers are not sure about the timing of shifting, and it is easy to have problems such as frustration and flameout. So, MT gearbox is more suitable for drivers who like driving and pursue a sense of control. Low fuel consumption, cheap maintenance and high durability.

2. Automatic gearbox (AT)

Automatic gearbox, that is, AT, can be said to be the gospel of lazy people. Step on the accelerator and the gearbox will automatically help you choose the right gear. There is no need to worry about the frustration caused by the wrong shift timing. Moreover, the AT gearbox has fast response speed and smooth shifting, which makes driving easier. However, AT gearbox also has its shortcomings. First of all, its cost and maintenance are relatively high; Secondly, some AT gearboxes will feel frustrated at low speed. So, AT gearbox is more suitable for friends who pursue driving comfort.

3. Continuously variable transmission (CVT)

Continuously variable transmission, that is, CVT, can be said to be the "chameleon" in the transmission. It is not in the traditional sense, but transmits power through two cone wheels and steel belts. This means that it can continuously change the transmission ratio and make the acceleration of the vehicle smoother. CVT gearbox performs very well in urban commuting and daily transportation, and its fuel consumption is relatively low. But ah, CVT gearbox also has its shortcomings. For example, its carrying capacity is relatively small and it is not suitable for intense driving; For another example, some CVT gearboxes will slip when accelerating rapidly. So, CVT gearbox is more suitable for friends who pay attention to economy and comfort.

4.（DCT）

Dual clutch gearbox, namely DCT, can be said to be the choice of high-end players. It combines the advantages of manual gearbox and automatic gearbox, and has the characteristics of fast response and smooth shift. At high speed, DCT gearbox can provide better acceleration performance and fuel economy. But ah, DCT gearbox also has its shortcomings. For example, its manufacturing cost is high; For another example, the technical requirements for drivers are relatively high. So, DCT gearbox is more suitable for friends who pursue high performance and driving pleasure.

Having said that, everyone should have a general understanding of these gearboxes. Actually, which gearbox to choose depends on your own needs and preferences. If you are a driver who likes driving and pursues a sense of control, then MT gearbox is definitely the best choice. If you are a friend who pursues driving comfort, then AT gearbox is definitely more suitable for you. If you are a friend who pays attention to economy and comfort, then CVT gearbox will definitely not let you down; If you are a friend who pursues high performance and driving pleasure, then DCT gearbox can definitely meet your needs. Personally, I recommend Aisin and ZF AT gearbox, but CVT doesn’t recommend it.

Finally, what I want to say is that no matter what kind of gearbox you choose, safety is the most important. So, while enjoying driving, we should always remember that safety comes first! I hope this article can be helpful to everyone, and I wish you all the best in choosing your favorite model! If you like it, just like it. If you don’t like it, just say something about me.

Some time ago, the state levied a purchase tax on new cars that met certain conditions by half. Recently, many friends asked how Xiaobian Lingda was. Today, Xiaobian will focus on the outstanding advantages and disadvantages of GAC Toyota Fenglanda models, and then friends can judge whether Fenglanda is worth buying. Let’s talk about advantages first:

1. Excellent engine NVH. In fact, the tire noise and road noise of Fenglanda are not prominent, but the sound and vibration of the engine are well suppressed. During the test drive, the engine had already started. I thought it was still starting. It was really quiet.

2. The chassis has excellent shockproof performance. Fenglanda’s suspension will have strong flexibility and high-grade feeling. In addition, the vibration filtering effect of the front and rear axle suspensions is relatively consistent, and there is no sense of disconnection and unnecessary vibration, which can absorb vibration at one time.

3, gearbox performance is absolutely favorable. No matter at any speed and load, the gear shifting action of Flanders’ gearbox is almost absolutely smooth and the dynamic response is super fast. Secondly, the response of manual mode of gearbox even reached the speed of super-running level, which was excellent.

4. The steering feel is the best of its kind. No matter the gain characteristics of speed and angle, the linearity and variation range are particularly good. The only regret is that the steering damping will suddenly increase when the input speed is low and the angle is large. Generally speaking, there will be a strong sense of stability and center at high speed, and it will be lighter at low speed.

5. The braking performance is also very good. At the ambient temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, the distance of braking to zero in 100 hours is 37 meters, which is very good for this model, and the brake feel is not bad.

These are the advantages of (||), and then talk about its disadvantages:

1. The dynamic performance is average. In the outdoor environment of 30 degrees Celsius, the acceleration time from zero to 100 is 10.6 seconds, which is really a little slow. During the whole acceleration process, it can be clearly seen that the power output of the middle engine is weak. Even in daily driving, if there is a great power demand, the engine must reach a high speed to meet the power demand.

2. Compared with the same level, the back row space has no advantage. There is no bright spot at the rear of the vehicle except for the adjustable seat back angle. A medium-sized man of 172cm sits in it, and the space in his head and legs is a little cramped. In addition, the short length of the seat cushion aggravates the discomfort of riding.

3. The interior lacks freshness. Feng Landa’s interior design layout is the same as that of (||) and (||), which is incompatible with the exterior design of young sports.

4. The image quality of the central control LCD screen is average. First of all, only the second roof is equipped with a 9-inch central control screen, and the other configurations are all 8 inches. The visual effect is very general, and the clarity, fluency and screen ratio of the screen are far behind the competing products.

5. The configuration is not high. Only the top is equipped with a large LCD instrument panel, leather steering wheel, automatic air conditioning, side airbags, parking radar, panoramic sunroof, etc., and the configuration of the middle and low models is very shabby.

After experiencing Feng Landa, you will be amazed at the powerful genes of Toyota brand. Fenglanda is a compact city under Toyota. There won’t be too many surprises, and there won’t be unacceptable bad feelings. If you don’t use the rear row very often, prefer to drive, and don’t have high requirements on configuration, Feng Landa is also a model worth choosing.

　　IT House reported on November 13th that HP seems to be developing a brand-new folding device. Judging from the current patent map, its shape is quite different from Spectre Fold released last year. HP stopped using the "Spectre" brand earlier this year.

　　The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) recently published a 16-page patent document submitted by HP. The document was submitted in April 2021, but it was not officially made public until November this year. The document describes a foldable device in detail, which adopts flexible display screen, hinge and spring mechanism and can be folded into a compact shape.

　　As can be seen from the patent drawing, the device adopts a "three-fold screen" design, which can fold both sides of the screen inward to form a more compact shape, which is more "extreme" than the folding method of Spectre Fold.

　　Hewlett-Packard said in the patent document: "The progress of flexible flat panel display technology, especially the development of rollable display screen, makes it possible to manufacture thinner and more portable products."

　　It is worth noting that HP has abandoned traditional brands such as Spectre, Pavilion and Envy this year, and launched brand-new Omni and Elite brands, which are aimed at consumers and enterprises respectively. Spectre Fold, launched last year, is a 17-inch folding screen laptop with a price as high as $4,999.99 (Note from IT House: currently about RMB 36,189), equipped with Intel Core i7-1250U processor, 16GB memory and 1TB solid state drive.

　　It is worth mentioning that Huawei has previously launched the world’s first three-fold mobile phone Mate X, and Samsung has also applied for a three-fold mobile phone patent.

On April 25th, the first car of Geely Holding Group’s Jiyue brand-Jiyue 07 was officially released, and it is planned to be officially listed in the second half of the year. Extreme Yue 07 maintains the style of the concept car in design, the center of the front enclosed grille is dotted with the brand logo, and through-going daytime running lights and similar "triangle" headlights are used, and the overall style is similar to that of Extreme Yue 01.

Extreme Yue 07 continues the family-style door handle design without a car, and adopts a push-button electric door. The front of the car is equipped with the most integrated interactive smart headlights, which integrate interactive AI pixel lights, far and near light/steering/daily travel/position lamp. The rear of the car is equipped with a boomerang lamp group and a liftable tail. The roof is equipped with a rear camera.

It is expected that the car will be equipped with the same 35.6-inch 6K 3D unbounded integrated ultra-clear large screen as the Extreme Yue 01, built-in Qualcomm 8295 chip, and equipped with a half-width steering wheel and screen shifting. In addition, Extreme Yue 07 also adopted BEV+Transformer "pure vision" high-order intelligent driving technical scheme.

In terms of power, Extreme Yue 07 is expected to provide a single-motor rear-drive version and a dual-motor four-wheel drive version, with the maximum power of 200kW and 400kW respectively, the maximum torque of 343N·m and 686N·m respectively, and the acceleration time from zero to 100 kilometers is 3 seconds. Referring to the guide price of Extreme Yue 01 (starting from 219,900 yuan), the starting price of Extreme Yue 07 may be less than 200,000 yuan.

　　In recent years, glass slideways built in various scenic spots in China have become a new means to attract tourists. However, frequent accidents of tourists’ casualties caused by the quality problems of glass slideways and poor operation supervision have cast a shadow over this new entertainment facility. On May 1, 2019, tourists rushed out of the slide protection facilities in the playground "Children’s Yard" in Taiping Town, Chengdu, Sichuan Province. Two people were killed and 12 injured in the accident. On June 1st, in the scenic spot of Muyi Town, Lanshanwan, Hefei, Anhui Province, three people were injured in their eyes, arms and heads to varying degrees while riding a glass drifting boat. On June 5th, in Fozi Tourist Scenic Area, Pingnan County, Guangxi, tourists crashed into the glass slide guardrail due to the rapid decline. One person was killed and six people were injured in the accident. Similar casualties occurred in 2017 and 2018.

　　The reporter of Beiqing Daily found that the scenic spots of building glass bridges, glass slides, glass rafting and other similar entertainment facilities exist in domestic scenic spots, farmhouses and other places. According to some practitioners, there are currently more than 100 water slides in China, while there may be 500 to 1,000 glass slides. Compared with ropeways, cable cars and other projects, the investment threshold of glass slides is low, the examination and approval difficulty is low, and the investment returns quickly. Therefore, scenic spots are generally willing to invest.

　　The reason is that the project participants have no access threshold, lack of construction standards, no need for approval and acceptance after completion, and the lack of links makes it difficult to guarantee the safety of scenic spots in online celebrity. The producers and operators of glass slideways and experts in the field of special equipment call for the early introduction of perfect approval and supervision procedures and enforceable industry standards for this equipment.

　　Hidden trouble-there are design defects in the construction of slideways.

　　The builders of the glass slide project usually blame the accident on the poor management of the scenic spot, but professionals have different opinions. Shen Haien, secretary-general of the Beijing Tourism Legal Committee, pointed out that the design defect of the slide is also one of the unavoidable reasons for the accident.

　　He explained that from the appearance, these slides are all hovering down the mountain, with many bends and complexity. Tourists’ sight is constantly blocked during the taxiing process, and the tourists behind them can’t see what happened in front. In addition, its angle and slope design do not match the actual height drop of the slide.

　　This statement has been recognized by the slipway builders. A person in charge of a slipway construction company said that many slipways have design defects. Short-distance curve can not effectively decompose the sliding speed caused by huge height drop, and once it gets wet in rainy days or other conditions occur, accidents may occur.

　　Hidden danger 2. The construction unit does not have professional qualifications.

　　Should these professional large-scale entertainment facilities, such as glass slides and glass rafting, be put into operation with relevant qualifications to ensure their professionalism?

　　The reporter of Beiqing Daily inquired about the information of the builder of the accident slide in Fozi Tourist Scenic Area, Pingnan County, Guangxi Province, which had an accident in June this year — — Henan woxing garden plank road engineering co., ltd. Its company profile claims that its main projects include scenic glass suspension bridge, glass plank road project, glass slide road project, plank road project and plank road facility design, but there is no clear information related to slide road construction in the main business of the company’s industrial and commercial information registration.

　　Some practitioners have revealed to the media that the glass slide has just emerged in recent years, and most of the investment and construction teams have become monks halfway. There is no clear industry standard. "In the complex mountainous terrain, the slope of the slide is designed to be steep in the dry climate, and the slope is slowed down in the wet place, which depends on experience and no data support." In addition, in the project operation, many operation managers are negligent, and tourists will not check for a long time.

　　Hidden danger 3: the main body of the supervision unit is vague

　　As special equipment, the construction of large-scale entertainment facilities needs special filing and approval procedures, but the glass slide is still in a vague area.

　　In an interview with the media, the staff of the Special Equipment Section of Feidong County Market Supervision Administration in Hefei, Anhui Province said that the glass slide was not under its supervision catalogue. In a document issued by the State Administration of Markets in 2018, it was specifically mentioned that "water slides and canyon rafting are not included in the scope of large-scale amusement facilities in the Catalogue of Special Equipment and are not included in the supervision of large-scale amusement facilities".

　　The Feidong County Emergency Management Bureau, the competent department of safety supervision, said that the safety supervision department only undertakes the post-treatment of the amusement park safety liability accident, and the prior intervention is not their responsibility. As for the amusement facilities, they don’t know who should be in charge. Tong Guoqiang, deputy director of the Cultural Tourism Bureau of Feidong County, said frankly that for new amusement facilities, the current superior policies and technical standards are still unclear, and industry management is difficult.

　　Industry voice

　　Glass slide standards need to be formulated in time.

　　In the face of bidding, construction, operation and other links, the construction unit is both an athlete and a referee. Yao Kunyi, a member of Shanghai Service Standardization Technical Committee, believes that encouraging the development of tourism does not mean that safety should be put in the second place. "For projects with unsafe factors or potential safety hazards, they should definitely be stuck and put on the negative list".

　　The reporter of Beiqing Daily learned that on July 31 this year, the sixth meeting of the large-scale amusement facilities sub-committee of the Fifth Special Equipment Safety Technical Committee was held in Taizhou. At the meeting, experts from China Special Equipment Testing and Research Institute made detailed inquiries and discussions on the risks of the "glass water slide" and put forward their own suggestions on whether to include it in the supervision. Whether the "glass water slide" is included in the supervision and the disposal method of the existing "glass water slide" will be further investigated and discussed. In addition, on August 31st, the kick-off meeting of the glass slipway standard and the demonstration project of laminated glass and safety performance evaluation for CSTM glass slipway was held in Luoyang, Henan Province. All parties hope that the standard formulation of glass slipway can be started as soon as possible.

　　Slide practitioners revealed that, in fact, because there is no clear regulatory body and industry standards, they are also facing the trouble of declaration and approval. From the point of view of slipway builders, they don’t intend to evade approval and inspection. If the government can issue clear access qualifications and industry standards, it will also promote the development of the industry.
