Reborn 80s

Chapter 214 Path Selection (Addition)
In terms of data, before Chen Huaiqing, he always emphasized not to exaggerate the publicity.

Product data is whatever it is.

But, for some things, it's useless to insist on yourself.

Other manufacturers praised their cars to the sky, saying that their cars belonged to the unparalleled existence on earth.

Really...

In this way, the publicity has been slightly adjusted.

On the whole, the Mota Group is still very conscientious in publicity, and the performance only talks about the test data in the best state.

Although users will never reach this test data when using it, the Mota Group has absolutely never said false propaganda.

On the user manual, it has been marked, which is the data obtained in the closed test road section.

Chen Huaiqing saw the new car Timo in the laboratory.

In China, there are no hatchbacks.

In people's concept, a car should be a sedan with a trunk at the back.

The hatchback does not have a special trunk, but it can also put some things.

There's a space between the rear seats and the rear door, and there's still no problem putting two upright suitcases.

Chen Huaiqing doesn't care about the shape of the car, he cares more about the Kunpeng engine developed by Mota Power.

Kun is also a big fish; Peng is also a big bird!
The engine is named Kunpeng, which means strong power.

At this time, fuel engines still have great development potential to be developed, and various car companies in the world are also constantly developing new fuel engines.

Want to get more powerful power.

Kunpeng's 1.5L four-stroke inline four-cylinder gasoline engine has a horsepower of 104 horsepower, which is not too big.

Because in Chen Huaiqing's memory, the horsepower of the 1.5L four-cylinder self-priming engine should reach more than 110 horsepower.

With turbocharging, it's 180 horsepower directly.

The 1.5L inline four-cylinder engine is widely used in family cars, and it can be described as the absolute main engine.

Therefore, Chen Huaiqing attaches great importance to the research and development of this displacement engine.

There are quite a lot of engine models researched by Mota Power, 1.4L, 1.8L, and 2.0L inline four-cylinder engines.

In addition to researching gasoline engines, Motta Power also develops diesel engines.

After all, Motta Motors also involves trucks and pickups.

As for trucks, Mota Motors is on the top of the positioning, so light trucks are the only thing to do, and heavy trucks should not be touched.

Chen Huaiqing took the engine data and looked at it. In terms of speed, this engine is a bit high, and the maximum speed can reach 8000.

Does Chen Huaiqing know that the future car engine will start to pursue low speed to output enough power.

Sufficient power can be output at low speeds, which means fuel saving!

Of course, the requirements for engine technology have also become increasingly strict.

Now many car manufacturers in the world are able to manufacture their own engines, but in the future, many car manufacturers will simply stop making engines themselves and purchase from other car manufacturers.

In other words, this engine relies on high fuel consumption to achieve high power output.

Chen Huaiqing looked at the gas consumption, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

Fortunately, the price of gas is cheap now.

In other words, people who can afford a car at this time are not too sensitive to fuel consumption.

"The fuel consumption is still too high. In the future, in the direction of engine development, we must try our best to maintain sufficient power output with lower fuel consumption."

Rising oil prices, coupled with various environmental protection pressures, the future development direction of fuel engines is in the direction of low fuel consumption.

The second oil crisis broke out in 1978, and the oil price soared, making low-fuel consumption cars completely become the mainstream in the auto market.

Anyway, every oil price rise is a severe blow to the global economy.

For car companies, models with high fuel consumption will also become difficult to sell.

Global car companies have been developing engines and models with lower fuel consumption in order to gain an advantage in market competition.

At this time, Mota Power is not too big in terms of engine competition pressure. After all, the domestic technical standards for engines are not high, and there are even no technical requirements.

As long as nothing happens, that's fine.

Today's cars run relatively slowly, as long as they are strong enough, even if they are close in other aspects, there is actually no problem.

In the future, the top speed of the car will reach more than 220 kilometers per hour. Now on the domestic highways, if you let go of running, anyone who dares to drive at 100 kilometers per hour is considered a beast.

It's not ordinary courage, it's just a life-threatening.

If you just want to get involved in the domestic market, to be honest, the Mota Group doesn't need to continue to invest so much money in research and development.

As far as the technology of the Mota Group is concerned, if it goes well, if it is modified slowly, there will be no problem at all in 30 to [-] years.

However, Chen Huaiqing's position in the Mota Group has always been based on the domestic market and impacted the international market.

The domestic market is the basic market. To compete in the international market, we must constantly sharpen our own technology.

A company can't really become strong just by staying in one place.

To be really strong, you have to practice with others.

Keep challenging, keep fighting.

The three major parts of a car: engine, gearbox and chassis.

On the gearbox, all the models on Mota Motors still use manual gearboxes.

In terms of technical difficulty, the manual gearbox has no problem for the Mota Group.

Now the important thing is the automatic transmission.

Chen Huaiqing knows that with the development of urbanization, cars will eventually enter thousands of households.

Driving has changed from a professional skill to a life skill, and what people want is a simpler and more comfortable driving operation.

foolish...

Although it doesn't sound good, the development trend of technology is like this, treating people as fools.

As long as your product can reach the point where even a fool can operate it, it will definitely sell well in the market.

Humans are lazy creatures, and if they can reduce their own operations, they definitely like it.

The driving method of the car, from manual transmission to automatic transmission, then to assisted driving, and then directly to unmanned driving.

Assisted driving and unmanned driving are still too far away now.

Mota Group's research on the gearbox at this time is to improve and optimize the technology of the current manual gearbox to enhance the driving experience.

The focus is still on the research on automatic transmissions.

There are four technical paths for automatic transmissions, hydraulic automatic transmission (AT for short), mechanical continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT for short), electronically controlled mechanical automatic transmission (AMT for short), and DCT dual-clutch automatic transmission.

The AT gearbox was directly given up by Chen Huaiqing. Looking at the structure inside the AT gearbox, he knew that it was not easy to handle.

The structure inside is extremely complicated.

As a result of the complex structure, the technical difficulty is high.

This kind is not something that the Mota Group can touch. It needs to have super machining and design capabilities.

Therefore, Chen Huaiqing mainly asked to study CVT and DCT gearboxes, including AMT gearboxes.

The advantages of the AMT gearbox are obvious. This gearbox is improved on the basis of the manual gearbox. Under the condition that the overall transmission structure of the mechanical gearbox remains unchanged, the automatic operation system controlled by a microcomputer is added to realize the gear shifting. automation.

Therefore, the core technology of AMT is microcomputer control!
