my country's new energy vehicle market has ushered in great development in recent years. The production and sales of new energy vehicles have increased year by year. However, this is only limited to the passenger car market. In fact, there are new developments in the commercial vehicle field. Energy models also have a huge market. On November 8, Geely's commercial vehicle brand Yuanhua Automobile released Yuanxinghan H, which the official defined as a new energy smart luxury heavy truck. The new car provides targeted solutions for life, energy supplement, driving assistance and other aspects, and incorporates a large number of new technologies. Compared with the current similar products, it can be said to have a disruptive change. Next, I will show you What will the future of logistics and transportation look like?
From the appearance, we can see that compared with the remote Xinghan H Today's tractors have more rounded lines and are more like a conceptual product, with the body lifted off the ground. The clearance is very low, even compared with similar products, it can be called "low-profile". The wheel rims also adopt a closed shape commonly used in new energy vehicles. The rear driving wheel is almost completely enclosed inside the surround. These designs are all for Give the vehicle a better aerodynamic appearance.
When it comes to passenger cars, we all like to pay attention to design, but for heavy-duty trucks, a money-making machine, actual users are not too concerned about the beauty and ugliness of the appearance. Note that the design of this type of car is mainly functional, supplemented by visual effects. As a large tractor, the Yuanxing Xinghan H has a drag coefficient of only 0.351. This number means a reduction in energy consumption. The most intuitive thing is to save energy costs. Of course, as a new energy vehicle, such a design will help reduce battery life. Anxiety also plays a role.
Buying a commercial vehicle is to make money. Try to keep the vehicle on the road to operate efficiently. Many users eat and drink in the car. Sleeping in the car, so the car itself is also a mobile living space, so Yuanxing Xinghan H has arranged comprehensive living facilities in the car.
External kitchen
Washing and drying integrated washing machine

An external kitchen and an integrated washing and drying washing machine are arranged on the left and right sides above the front wheel arch of the vehicle. These two configurations are currently unique among similar models.
The interior design of Yuanxinghan H is also subversive compared to similar models. The center console adopts a driver-centered design, and the overall color is gray. , white and wood colors are the main colors. This color combination is visually very homely, getting rid of the simple, rough, dull and depressing design style of heavy trucks in the past.
The center console is equipped with a dual-screen design, and the steering wheel is also equipped with a separate small LCD screen. The steering wheel also adopts a rectangular design. Judging from the picture, the size is very small, somewhat similar to a racing steering wheel. feeling.
Necessary living facilities such as shower rooms, toilets, single beds, refrigerators, and tea makers are also distributed behind the cockpit. This comprehensive design reduces the user's cost of living and indirectly improves operating efficiency. .
There has always been a contradiction in information connection in commercial vehicle transportation. Remote Xinghan H obtains information from the logistics platform , analyze and process orders, calculate trip costs, and match the most suitable business. The predictive energy management system can integrate the vehicle's own multi-sensor and real-time data from the traffic network, upload road condition information in real time and calculate the global energy consumption under multi-path, and help the driver recommend the most efficient route. At the same time, through the predictive energy management algorithm, Control the power system in advance Enter the corresponding mode (pure electric drive, extended range drive, parallel drive, pure electric energy recovery, etc.) to achieve optimal economic performance; when the power is insufficient, cloud map data is used to connect the vehicle and the energy supply platform to select a reasonable interval for the driver The best energy replenishment route for battery swapping.
Use modern technology to use intelligent network connection, big data and other technologies to connect "people, vehicles, goods, stations and electricity" to help users save costs and improve operating efficiency.
According to different usage scenarios, Yuan Xinghan H matches a variety of new energy sources such as pure electric, extended range, methanol P2 hybrid, etc. In terms of power mode, for short-distance transportation on fixed lines, pure electric models can be used, extended-range models are products that take into account low energy consumption and endurance, and methanol P2 hybrid is a product developed for specific routes in specific scenarios.
At the same time, both pure electric vehicles and extended-range vehicles are equipped with battery swapping devices, which provide rapid energy replenishment for the vehicle to ensure operating efficiency. It is currently the best solution when there is no breakthrough in battery technology itself. plan.
Commercial vehicles often run uninterrupted for efficiency, which brings about the problem of fatigue driving. At the same time, due to their large body size, driving is also a physical job, so this type of vehicle requires high-end driving assistance systems. Long-range Xinghan H is equipped with multi-dimensional sensing hardware that integrates lidar, millimeter wave radar, ultrasonic radar, surround-view camera, front-view camera and other multi-dimensional sensing hardware. It also matches 5G+V2X communication modules and software algorithms, relying on which to achieve high-end automatic Driving assistance is implemented, and the system itself can be continuously upgraded through OTA.
According to the plan of Yuanhua Automobile, L3 highway automatic driving and L4 limited scene automatic driving will be realized in 2023; L4 trunk logistics automatic driving will be realized in 2026; L5 integration will be realized in 2030 Autonomous driving in smart cockpits is truly industrialized. The implementation of high-end driving assistance can free users from heavy labor, improve safety, and improve operating efficiency.
Yuanxinghan H plans to be officially launched in 2024. The current policy given by the manufacturer is a deposit of 200With a deposit of 0 yuan, you can enjoy a car purchase gift of 20,000 yuan; with a deposit of 10,000 yuan, you can enjoy a car purchase gift of 50,000 yuan; in addition, the first 1,000 customers who reserve a car can receive an exclusive VIP black gold card, free lifetime OTA upgrades, and customized exclusive services for the Internet of Vehicles.
Based on the information currently exposed, Yuan Xinghan H is more suitable for operation on major highways with good road conditions. Domestic commercial vehicles are operated by both retail operators and corporate collectives. For retail investors, price-performance ratio will become a decisive factor in purchasing a car. For companies, what they need is machines that run efficiently. Although manufacturers provide a variety of energy matching, the corresponding infrastructure must be fully laid, especially for replacement vehicles. power station.
The tide of new energy is irreversible. New energy, intelligent network connection, and high-end driving assistance are not developing rapidly in the field of commercial vehicles. Yuanxinghan H can be said to be a disruptive product in the domestic commercial vehicle market. Products, for long-range cars, entering the game early will give them an advantage. For this car, how to balance price and configuration to cope with traditional similar models is very critical. At the same time, there is also a long way to go in brand promotion and building.
