Chery New Energy: Technology Builds the Foundation for Nuclear Technology

Chery has mastered advanced power battery and battery management systems, motor and motor control systems, and vehicle control three core technologies. It has broken through series of core accessory technologies such as electric air conditioning, electronic vacuum pumps, and electric power steering to form a competitive advantage.

On the afternoon of June 1st, when the reporter came to the system control laboratory of Chery New Energy Automotive Technology Co., Ltd., Han Youguo, head of the laboratory of the hybrid power department of the Chery Automobile Engineering Research Institute, was accompanied by two young people who were meticulously observing and monitoring. The data on the screen. Han Youguo said: “This is a Chery hybrid HIL test system that can simulate various driving environments and test the performance of the entire vehicle.” In Chery’s new energy R&D system, the Engineering Research Institute at the North Regional Headquarters focuses on high-end cutting-edge technologies. The test is more specific and closer to the market.

"Technology as the core" has always been the basic attitude of Chery in exploring new energy fields. Since the establishment of the “Clean Energy Vehicle Special Group” 11 years ago, Chery has devoted itself to the exploration of energy saving and environmental protection technologies. The reporter learned that as the “National Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection Vehicle Engineering Research Center”, Chery has successively assumed the R&D responsibility for the 19 national “863 Program” energy-saving and new energy automotive projects, and its independently developed low-noise, bottom-vibration, and high-efficiency small-scale Power generation ranger technology and products can solve the current problems of electric vehicle cruising range, etc. The energy conservation and environmental protection automobile technology platform construction project won the “National Science and Technology Progress Award First Prize”, laying the foundation for China’s auto companies to seize the commanding heights of new energy vehicles. .

The pace of marketization has become emboldened by technical support. “At present, we sell 4,000 to 4,500 new energy vehicles, of which 2,100 have entered the hands of private consumers and there are a number of government procurement orders.” Zhang Yong, deputy general manager of Chery New Energy Automotive Technology Co., Ltd. told reporters, Chery New Energy In the product line, there are a number of flagship products represented by A5 ISG, A5 BSG, and M1EV, covering three major areas: hybrid vehicles, pure electric vehicles, and fuel cell vehicles. At present, Chery has a total of 10 new energy vehicles on the Ministry of Industry's new car announcement and a list of recommended new energy vehicles, including a fuel cell car, 2 hybrid cars, 7 pure electric cars.

According to Zhang Yong, in accordance with the “timetable” of the industrialization of new energy vehicles in China, hybrid vehicles will take the lead in breaking through. It is expected that pure electric vehicles will enter the stage of rapid growth and mass production after 6 to 8 years. At present, the new energy automobile market is still immature. Consolidating the core technology base is the key to seizing the market in the future. In the vicinity of Chery New Energy Automotive Technology Co., Ltd., a battery diaphragm plant that Chery and BenQ Materials jointly established is under construction. The two parties will cooperate in the R&D and production of separator materials used in power lithium batteries to further increase their ability to grasp key technologies for new energy materials and new energy sources. The project is planned to be put into operation within the year.
