BAIC Group said that the development of new energy vehicles is the only way for China's auto industry to become bigger and stronger

Recently, in the field of domestic new energy vehicles, BAIC Group has repeatedly reported heavy news: the National New Energy Vehicle Technology Innovation Center settled in BAIC, BAIC Group and Daimler to build Beijing Benz new energy production capacity, and Daimler became a subsidiary of BAIC New Energy Company. These big moves clearly explained to the outside world the "leading 2025 strategy" proposed by BAIC Group in 2017, which demonstrates the determination of BAIC Group to work hard and implement comprehensive new energy.

Heyi Xu, secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of BAIC Group, pointed out: "New energy vehicles are the only way for China's auto industry to become big and strong. How to turn first-mover advantage into leading edge is the biggest proposition in China's auto industry." Made in China 2025 Key developments such as the coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, the construction of Beijing Science and Technology Innovation Center, and the Beijing's ecological environment governance, BAIC Group proposed a strategy of “leading 2025” with comprehensive new energy as an important feature. Heyi Xu said: “BAIC Group will strive to open the 2.0 era of innovation energy vehicle development. By 2025, it will build a world-class new energy vehicle technology innovation center and a world-class new energy vehicle company.”

From the first mover to the leader

BAIC Group is one of the earliest companies in the country to develop new energy vehicle industry. After years of development, BAIC Group has mastered a series of core technologies such as e-Motion Drive super-electric drive, integrated power system integration technology, and lightweight body; built a forward development process EVDP2.0 that meets European standards and covers international test standards. ETVS and comprehensive safety management system ETSM; launched six series of more than 10 pure electric passenger cars such as EC, EV, EU, EX, EH and LITE; built the largest and independent new energy vehicle sales service network in the country; It also promoted the power-exchange mode and implemented the “Optimus Prime Plan” to lead the progress of the new energy automobile industry.

How do you transform the first-mover advantage into a leading advantage from individual soldier breakthroughs? Heyi Xu pointed out: "The new energy automobile industry is not a simple kinetic energy conversion, but a motorization as a breakthrough, driving a new car concept, a new research and development process, a new platform manufacturing process, a new sales service model update and replacement, must go out of a different path than the traditional car industry."

If BAIC is 1.0 times in the development of new energy vehicles is individual breakthrough, quickly obtain professional development stage of the first mover advantage is seal mode, then under the background of collectivization 2.0, Beijing automotive group new energy vehicles to a new stage of development, evolution, open to a comprehensive new energy into a important characteristic of Beijing auto group new energy vehicles development 2.0, full implementation of "leading 2025 strategy, build a joint fleet mode.

In the 2.0 era, BAIC Group will continue to focus on breakthroughs in core resources such as “Three Powers” core technologies and batteries. At the same time, it will strengthen the new energyization of self-owned brand passenger vehicles, accelerate the transition to “product hybridization”, and build 48V, HEV, PHEV, and EV technology matrices to prepare for “comprehensive hybridization” in 2025.

Changhe Automobile, which is positioned as “Southern Base of BAIC Group, Strategic Base of Energy-saving and Environmental Protection Vehicles and New Energy Vehicle Development Base”, has already qualified for new energy vehicles. In April 2017, Changhe Automobile officially started construction of a 100,000-capacity new energy base planned in Jiujiang, Jiangxi. Changhe Automobile will rely on the core R&D resources of BAIC Group to promote the two routes of pure electric drive vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles.

In the field of commercial vehicles, Beiqi Foton has established a full range of product research and development capabilities for new energy commercial vehicles. New energy products cover micro-cards, light trucks, medium-sized trucks, buses, special vehicles, etc., and are the first to realize the development of hydrogen fuel cell buses in China. Run with the demonstration.

Hainachuan co., LTD has launched the “lightweight, intelligent and electrified” forward-looking technology transformation in accordance with the development direction of “new energy, intelligence, network, sharing and internationalization”, which will be Beiqi. The Group and its peers develop new energy vehicles to provide more parts and technical support.

In January 2018, the re-integrated Beijing Automotive Research Institute Co., Ltd. was established. This is an important step for BAIC to build product and technology research and development capabilities and realize the integration of R&D resources. The Research Institute will focus on improving the research and development capabilities of intelligent network, modeling, lightweight, NVH, etc., and fully integrate into the innovative new research and development system of BAIC Group's comprehensive new energy.

From competitors to industrial ecological builders

At present, the country's policy in the field of new energy vehicles is fully open. In order to gain a leading edge, it is necessary to open arms and actively carry out extensive and in-depth joint venture cooperation and collaborative innovation.

Open and innovative, BAIC takes the lead in creating a new energy car national business card

On March 1, the National New Energy Vehicle Technology Innovation Center settled in Blue Valley, which is China's first national-level new energy vehicle innovation center. BAIC Group, as the lead unit of the center, shoulders the responsibility of building and building world-class new energy vehicle technology innovation. The important task of the source will actively cooperate with 21 cooperative parties to carry out cooperation of “communicating, building, co-governing, sharing and sharing”.

Open innovation and deepen the internationalization level of new energy auto industry

On February 23, Beijing Automotive Co., Ltd. and Daimler announced that they plan to invest more than RMB11.9 billion to build a new luxury car and new energy vehicle production base in Beijing Benz. On March 8, Daimler Greater China Investment Co., Ltd. officially acquired 3.93% of BAIC New Energy and became one of its shareholders. So far, the strategic cooperation between Daimler Group and BAIC Group in the field of new energy vehicles has been further deepened, and the resources sharing between technology research and development, supply chain and product marketing have become more in-depth.

Open innovation and join hands with Internet companies to build intelligent network new energy vehicles

New energy, intelligence, and networking have become an inevitable trend in the development of automobiles. In the future, these technologies will be integrated into the same carrier of automobiles. Only by actively cooperating with car companies and Internet companies can we achieve a win-win situation. As a Beijing-based enterprise, BAIC Group will fully grasp the opportunity of Beijing to build a “National Science and Technology Innovation Center”, and use global scientific and technological innovation and high-quality resources to actively seek potential partners and innovations to further promote Baidu, Xiaomi and Didi When IT and Internet companies cooperate, they will implement the cooperation to the project, implement the results, implement the products, and make the cooperation really bear fruit.

The "New" Future Declaration issued by BAIC Group pointed out: "Future car = driverless + new energy. When the coordinates of time enter 2018, we can clearly see the future of the automotive industry. The end of car evolution is near the final sprint has arrived."

"I hope that we can unite and work together, and with the strong cooperation of the Chinese team, we will sail to the new future of the global automotive industry." This is the declaration of BAIC and the "Chinese Dream" shared by Chinese auto companies.
