Hydrogen fuel and 5G self-driving trucks are delivered in batches. Why is SAIC Hongyan so powerful?

Let's talk about the background of SAIC Hongyan first. SAIC Hongyan should be an early domestic automobile company that cooperated with European trucks. As early as 2007, Hongyan established SAIC Iveco Hongyan Commercial Vehicle Co., Ltd. in cooperation with SAIC and Iveco, and was also the first heavy truck manufacturer in China to introduce European heavy truck technology through joint venture.

After years of development, SAIC gradually repurchased Iveco shares, and SAIC Iveco Hongyan gradually became SAIC Hongyan, and SAIC became the absolute controlling party of SAIC Hongyan. SAIC Hongyan has also become an important heavy truck strategic unit of SAIC, enjoying all kinds of technical resources of SAIC like other car companies under the Group.

Apart from the strength of SAIC, SAIC is the largest automobile listed company in China A-share market. In 2020, SAIC ranked among China's Fortune 500, and SAIC ranked seventh. It can be said that SAIC is the most powerful car company in China at present, and intelligence and networking are also important strategies of SAIC.

According to relevant sources, SAIC has achieved 100% autonomy in intelligence, and not only developed a set of control systems by itself, but also included some hardware with corresponding layout. SAIC Hongyan 5G smart heavy truck is a typical representative. The control system used by SAIC Hongyan 5G self-driving car was developed by SAIC itself.

On the other hand, other intelligent self-driving trucks in China are mostly led by car companies, chain and third-party control system suppliers and related hardware suppliers, and finally integrated into the corresponding vehicles. In this process, car companies do more integration and lack relevant core technologies. In a sense, car companies are also a hardware supplier.

From the perspective of technology and marketization, SAIC Hongyan's related products are relatively more reliable. After all, it is self-developed and manufactured synchronously, which has some natural advantages in matching consistency and related intelligent technology calibration. From the market point of view, the hardware of the vehicle itself and the software of the control system can be handled by SAIC Hongyan or even SAIC Group, which improves the convenience of users.

At present, SAIC Hongyan's 5G intelligent self-driving LNG heavy truck has been commercialized in Shanghai Yangshan Port, and it is also the first heavy truck enterprise with self-driving heavy truck officially commercialized in China (heavy truck self-driving heavy truck is a pure electric vehicle). Through SAIC's intelligent control system, not only automatic driving can be realized, but also automatic loading and unloading can be realized with the dock and yard. In addition, SAIC Hongyan's 5G smart heavy truck will not turn at the dock, but enter the social road. In theory, its automation level can reach L4.

In addition to commercial intelligent self-driving heavy trucks, SAIC Hongyan is also at the forefront of the hydrogen fuel cell industry. /kloc-in late October, SAIC Hongyan signed an order for hundreds of hydrogen fuel heavy trucks with Inner Mongolia Sheng Yuan Energy, which indicates that SAIC Hongyan hydrogen fuel cell heavy trucks will be put into the market in batches in the near future and put into commercial use.

Similarly, SAIC Hongyan's hydrogen fuel cell heavy truck also adopts many technologies of SAIC Group. With the support of SAIC, SAIC Hongyan took off again. In terms of technical reserves, SAIC is at the forefront of the whole industry with its strong group strength, all of which are independently researched and developed, and have mastered the core technologies.

In addition, with the technical support of SAIC Hongyan, a new generation of heavy trucks will be officially released in 165438+ 10. Judging from the information disclosed before, the sixth generation heavy truck of SAIC Hongyan and the previous heavy truck technology of Iveco are already two technical routes, and there is basically no shadow of Iveco heavy truck.

According to the introduction of the sixth generation R&D personnel of SAIC Hongyan, the new car has been upgraded in intelligence and electrification on the basis of the global R&D capability of SAIC Group. And combined with domestic users' car habits and domestic logistics market demand, it is more suitable for domestic logistics vehicles and users' needs.

postscript

Since SAIC became the absolute controlling party of SAIC Hongyan, the investment in SAIC Hongyan has increased greatly, both in technology and capital. SAIC Hongyan also relies on SAIC's strong technical strength to realize the leap-forward development of heavy trucks. In the future development trend of intelligence and electrification, SAIC Hongyan will surely be at the forefront of the industry.
