China must become a new energy car, automatic driving car leader, what is it?

Due to the restrictions of the epidemic, all the activities related to many car this year were canceled, especially some test drive activities, and auto show. In 2020, the Detroit Auto Show originally held in summer was canceled. The Geneva Car Show in early March 2020 was also canceled, and there were also decided not to hold the Tokyo Auto Show in October.

At the same time, in China, due to the success of the immunity, the Beijing Auto Show in the fall of 2020, attracted 530,000 tourists. This year, Shanghai Auto Show is held as scheduled. From the perspective of Western perspectives, it can be said that there are some incredible things, but through the Shanghai Auto Show, not only the world’s car manufacturers, but IT companies participate in the car, the Chinese auto market can say a boom!

In 2013, the number of cars sold in China exceeded the United States, jumped to the world, and now, China’s number of people sold almost twice as the United States every year. It is expected that the annual sales volume will exceed 30 million.

China’s number of vehicles also exceeded the United States and reached 287 million. However, the population of the United States is approximately 310 million, China’s population is 1.5 billion, and the US car ownership rate is 871 vehicles per thousand, and China’s phase difference is 205 per three. Therefore, the future China market is very likely to continue to expand, so the automakers will deepen it as the first market that should be aimed. The advantage of the Chinese market is that due to the conflict between China and the United States and the user rights protection against quality problems in the auto show, Tesla’s Elamon Middot; Mask is taking various actions, but the use is limited. The dispute between the pure electric cars between China and the United States seems to be known in advance in 2021.

“Hugging Change”

The theme of the Shanghai Auto Show is “hug changes” in 2021. That’s why it feels that it is a new blood from the United States CES and the Detroit Auto Show with many traditional automakers, China’s new, new forces and IT companies. More and more IT companies and other destructive competitors from outside entered the automotive industry.

However, from a large frame, it can summarize new technologies in electrification, automatic driving, and interconnected automobiles. For this reason, it is not only Huawei and Xiaomi.Mobile phone manufacturers, and the e-commerce company Alibaba and the world’s largest drone manufacturer Daxin Innovation (DJI) also join.

China Automobile Company and IT giant enters the smart car market

Currently, China’s electric car market is from Shanghai Auto The group and BYD are dominated by traditional companies, and the volume of new forces is not so big. In particular, BYD decided to expand the installation of the blade battery and used it to other vendors, including the Red Flag and Modern Motor Group, and attracted the attention of various manufacturers through the launch of the new 800 volt platform. In addition, most Chinese companies that advocate the battery, such as the ambassador, Geely Automobile, has increased investment in new energy vehicles in accordance with the Chinese government’s policies.

In Chinese companies, it is concerned that smart phones and home appliance manufacturers Xiaomi will invest 10 billion US dollars in electric vehicles in the next decade, Huawei plans to invest $ 1 billion this year. In addition, Baidu is working with Geely Automobile Corporation to develop electric vehicles, almost all companies have increased investment in electric vehicles.

[2] Intelligent new energy vehicles reduce carbon emissions in China, achieving economic sustainable development is vital

Among the global auto companies, the public, Audi, BMW and Mercedes – Mercedes-Benz are showing the most advanced technology and models of China’s local production.

In US companies, Ford cars show different attitudes, such as the announcement of Changan Ford in China, and sells cross-boundary electric vehicles EVOS and Mustang Mach E E, which is the current unique electric vehicle in the Chinese market. It is worth noting that both models use Baidu Ai and use SYNC + 2, using new interfaces and localized applications.

The move is based on the planning of the Chinese government to expand the electric motor market. In October 2020, the Chinese government has developed the goal of 50% battery electric vehicles and 50% hybrid electric vehicles by the new energy vehicle development strategy in 2035. Despite 2019 new energy car in new car salesThe proportion is 5%, but the new route map will increase to about 20% in 2025, an increase of about 40% in 2030 and increased to more than 50% in 2035. This policy stipulates that more than 95% of new energy vehicles are dominated by battery electric vehicles. As the world’s largest carbon dioxide emission source, China believes that the large-scale supply of batteries and electric vehicles is critical to transforming into a commoditic society and is implementing bold policy reforms to dispose of all gasoline vehicles.

All other gasoline vehicles will be converted into hybrid vehicles. The proportion of hybrid electric vehicles will increase to 50% of gasoline vehicles to 2030, reaching up to 75% in 2030, reaching 100% in 2035, and the production and sales of existing gasoline vehicles other than hybrid power will stop.

In 2020, the market share of new energy vehicles in China’s new car market was about 6.3%, but in March this year, about 9%.

At present, China’s battery electric vehicle market has a wide range of battery electric cars. Whether it is foreign brand Tesla, or a local high-end brand, and Wuling Hongguang Mini EV electric vehicle, only 28,800. Despite the low-cost model, Wulinghong MINI EV has also achieved great success.

Of course, in a Chinese public opinion, two-thirds of respondents hoped to buy electric cars worth 100,000 yuan, as can be seen from the response, the sustainability of Wuling Mountain MINI EV Not sure. In the past, India’s Tata Motors launched a low cost, practical household car, but it failed too cheap. At present, government subsidies for new energy vehicles in the Chinese market apply only to passenger cars of 300,000 yuan or less.

[3] Baidu, Huawei, Ali, participating in intelligent electric drivatic technology research and development

Integrate software technology to electric After the car, they will eventually become smart electric automatic driving. In the United States, Google Waymo, Cruise, Tesla and Apple have attracted people’s attention in this field, but in China, BaiduPerformance is the most active. Most importantly, it works with the Chinese government to accumulate experience through road driving tests and automatic taxi tests.

In March, Baidu has received the qualifications of automatic taxi service fees from the intelligent network vehicle road test and the driver’s operation management team of Zhangzhou City, Hebei Province. At present, 35 cars are showing intelligent transportation services, and 10 automatic driving cars have been qualified. The first charged demonstration mode is China’s first, Baidu Apollo can explore various forms of charge mechanisms, such as discounts, experience coupons.

Zhangzhou is the first city that China announces the policy of automatically driving the company to the passenger, and Baidu claims that the city is a milestone of China’s technological progress.

Baidu launched a Robotaxi service called Apollo GO in Cangzhou City in August 2020, enabling people to use it free of charge via a smartphone. It can also be used in Beijing and Changsha and plan to extend to 30 cities within three years.

Baidu has also obtained a test license for 10 driverless cars in Zhangzhou. In order to meet the qualifications, companies must complete 50,000 kilometers of public road local tests on safe roads without safety accidents. Based on this, Baidu is still in the US California.

Since 2013, Baidu has been investing in automatic driving. There is currently more than 210 partners and 55,000 global developers are participating in Baidu Apollo project. Apollo is an open platform for automatic driving, with 700,000 line source code.

To date, Baidu Apollo vehicles have increased by 500, and the public road trials were carried out in nearly 30 cities around the world, and the maximum mileage exceeded 7 million kilometers. In China, Apollo has obtained 214 automatic driving licenses, 161 of which are used in passenger transport.

Baidu also ranks first in miles. Baidu’s automatic driving car drove more than 1.1 million kilometers per year, it is said to account for 9 of the total driving distance of all companies6%. In the past three years, Baidu has accumulated more than 2 million miles in the city.

Baidu ranks first in the number of test vehicles in the third consecutive year. By the end of 2020, Baidu has also obtained five licenses that test unmanned vehicles in China. In addition, as part of the automatic driving passenger service pilot, it launched the Robotaxi service in Beijing in October.

By 2020, more than 15,000 passengers have tried the service, 90% of them said they want to use it again. Baidu said that the Apollo automatic driving system will be installed on 1 million vehicles in the next three to five years.

In particular, due to the US mobile phone chip sanctions in China. For companies like Huawei, transition vehicles are considered a new opportunity. Huawei said that it has been aware of the limitations of the current market, and will enter new development trajectories in the future, and promote the rapid development of smart vehicles and automatic driving through their own advantages. Electric Motors are aware of NVIDIA to develop next-generation automatic driving electric vehicles. Geely also started a test of automobile driving in 2020.

[4] Bosch, Chevfu, et al, etc. Supplier giants, strengthen the R & D and investment in China

Of course, foreign companies have been exploring and developing in smart cars. Whether it is a car manufacturer or a component supplier.

Qifu announced an Pro Ai supercomputer at the Shanghai Auto Show, which meets software-defined cars and E / E architectures, and US mainland China also shows various software and related hardware. Solution to facilitate integration of software features.

Bosch opened R & D center in Shanghai, China to develop digital technology for automobile cockpit. Shanghai’s 2,500 square meters of Bosch Digital R & D Center is developing digital products, including info, entertainment control, driver, and occupant monitoring system, and 5G V2X connection control unit.

Bosch Shanghai R & DThe center is China’s third R & D center after the Automobile Information Entertainment R & D center of Suzhou and Wuhu. The R & D Center will not only develop software for China’s automotive users, but will also conduct high-tech research and innovation for the global auto market. Therefore, these German large suppliers of technology will support China’s automakers.

[5] Based on a huge market, China will lead the world’s automatic driving car market

, whether Still products, there is a need for market support. McKinsey Company predict China will become the world’s largest automatic driving car market. By 2030, the sales of automatic driving vehicles in the Chinese market will reach 230 billion US dollars, and the orders based on automatic driving services will reach $ 260 billion.

Of course, to develop this market, there is a need to consider many factors, such as technology and cost, quality, and laws and regulations. This means that there is still a long way to run from test running to practical applications. However, many technologies have been put into development in the process of grade 2, 3 and 4, regardless of the commercialization of automatic driving cars, and created new profits.

However, it is worth noting that due to the cause of the epidemic, European and American companies have postponed the development of automatic driving vehicles. Therefore, in China, the Chinese government announced earlier this year that it plans to allow automatic driving tests on the road. By the end of 2020, China has opened a 2,000-kilometer public road to test smart internet cars and have issued more than 400 licenses to enterprises for automatic driving tests. In addition, the total mileage of the road has exceeded 2 million kilometers. China currently has a 54.6-kilometer unmanned driver, which is longer than the US, Germany and Finland, and the latter runs unmanned bus on the public road. As we all know, in 2022, China will increase to 60, with a total distance of more than 300 kilometers.

In the new road map of China’s fourteenth five-year plan, there is a policy to promote automatic driving development. The focus is automatic driving technology in the highway in 2030. In 2035, advanced automatic driving techniques such as logistics will be practical in all parts.

In 2020, the number of new cars sold in the Chinese market was 25.1 million, down 2% from 2019. Despite the decline in 2017, it still accounts for one-third of the global market. According to the data of the China Automotive Industry Association, China’s new car sales in China in the first quarter of this year were 6.5 million, an increase of 75% over the same period last year. Obviously, this is an amazing record compared to global trends.
