BYD Touchdown in Advance: Analysis of Sales Achievements in 2024

After October, BYD once again broke through the monthly sales mark of 500,000 vehicles in November, and sold 504,003 new vehicles in a single month. By the end of November, BYD had sold 3,740,930 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 67%. So far, BYD has achieved the sales target of 20% growth in 2024 one month ahead of schedule. In addition, according to the current growth trend, BYD is more likely to become the first new energy automobile manufacturer in the world with annual sales of more than 4 million vehicles.

In the face of increasingly fierce market competition and technological changes, BYD insists on technological innovation and product diversification, and has launched many new models that are deeply loved by consumers, such as Qin L, Yuan UP, Wangwang U7, Tengshi N7 and Equation Leopard 8, and has kept its price competitiveness by continuously optimizing its cost structure. At the same time, BYD has also made remarkable progress in overseas markets. In the first 11 months, it exported more than 360,000 passenger cars, accelerating the pace of internationalization. Being able to stand out in the complex and changeable market environment and achieve a double harvest of sales and profits is closely related to BYD’s series of strategic plans since it entered 2024.

  R&D investment continues to grow.

Behind the steady growth of BYD’s sales, it is inseparable from the long-term huge investment and continuous innovation in technology research and development. From January to September this year, BYD’s R&D investment reached 33.32 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 33.6%, and the accumulated R&D investment exceeded 160 billion yuan. Up to now, BYD has nearly 110,000 technical R&D personnel, making it the car company with the largest number of R&D personnel in the world.

High R&D investment has also brought continuous breakthroughs in technological innovation for BYD, especially in battery technology and intelligent driver assistance system, and BYD’s progress is obvious to all.

Taking the blade battery as an example, this technological innovation greatly improves the energy density and safety of the battery pack through structural optimization, and also effectively reduces the production cost. The introduction of blade batteries enables BYD to install more batteries in a limited space, thus significantly improving the cruising range of vehicles and solving the problem of users’ anxiety about the battery life of electric vehicles. At the same time, the safety of the blade battery has been greatly enhanced, reducing the risk of thermal runaway. In addition, the cost-effectiveness of blade batteries becomes more obvious with the promotion of large-scale production and technological progress, which helps BYD maintain its price competitiveness and attract more price-sensitive consumers.

More crucially, the design concept and technological innovation of blade battery make it realize the loading of large-capacity battery without occupying the space of passenger compartment. This advantage is very important to improve the overall performance and user experience of the vehicle. Take the Han EV with a maximum battery capacity of 85.4kWh as an example. Although this model has a large battery pack, BYD skillfully places it at the bottom of the car body, ensuring that the battery pack will not occupy the space of the front and rear passengers on the basis of ensuring a certain ground clearance. This has therefore become one of the important reasons for the popularity of Han EV and other models.

At the same time, the intelligent driving assistance function has also become a key to BYD’s research and development. BYD launched the "Eye of the Gods" advanced intelligent driving assistance system, in which the application of NOA pilot-assisted driving technology in cities has made rapid progress. Urban NOA can help drivers achieve more accurate operations in complex urban environments, such as automatic braking and obstacle avoidance, which can ensure driving safety and reduce the burden on drivers. This intelligent experience not only enhances the sense of science and technology of products, but also provides more powerful reasons for young consumers who pursue convenience and high-tech configuration to choose BYD products.

Furthermore, BYD’s "CNOA" has also made new progress. At the end of October, this function has been opened in six new cities, namely Guangzhou, Shanghai, Beijing, Suzhou, Xi ‘an and Chengdu. Together with Shenzhen, which has been opened, there are currently 7 cities, and according to the current plan, the national cities can be opened by the end of December. For BYD, intelligent technology is bound to become an important boost to promote the development of the automobile industry.

  Product line careful layout

The rapid rise of BYD in the new energy vehicle market is largely due to the orderly market competition strategy. Through a series of carefully planned product line expansion and optimization, a product matrix covering all models from entry-level to high-end is gradually constructed, so BYD can quickly occupy more shares in the domestic market, and at the same time launch a differentiated competitive offensive against other car companies.

At the beginning of 2024, BYD launched the glory version of Qin PLUS DM-i, which started at 79,800 yuan, directly lowering the threshold of A-class new energy vehicles and giving consumers more choices. Since then, BYD has launched more than ten glory models in a short time, such as destroyer 05, dolphin and Han family, covering different market segments, from compact cars to SUVs, and each model has been optimized and upgraded for specific consumer groups.

With the continuous introduction of glory models, BYD has been able to consolidate its position in the low-end market, especially in the key price range of 50,000-150,000 yuan, which accounts for half of the whole market.

For BYD, occupying the low-end market is the first step, and then it will gradually fill the gap in the middle and high-end market through in-depth optimization of the cost structure of the original models and introduction of higher-end product lines such as Tengshi Z9GT. The easy-to-square technology of Tengshi Z9GT makes the vehicle have the functions of extreme steering and intelligent crab walking, which are incomparable to traditional fuel vehicles, and it also provides BYD with a powerful competitive weapon in the market of more than 200,000.

Obviously, BYD’s product line layout is not just a simple price reduction promotion, but by virtue of the advantages of vertical integration, it effectively reduces production costs and converts the saved costs into more competitive prices. In sharp contrast, Tesla’s market share in China is gradually being eroded. Although it has taken several price reduction measures, the space for brand premium has become smaller and smaller. In contrast, BYD achieved sales growth while ensuring a certain profit rate through the cost-oriented pricing method, which proved the effectiveness of this business model.

It should be pointed out that whether it is product line planning or new product launch, BYD always focuses on how to better meet the needs of consumers, and at the same time actively seeks technological innovation to maintain long-term competitive advantage. This ability of dynamic adjustment is the key for BYD to stand out in the rapidly changing market environment.

  The globalization process is accelerating.

Since the official announcement of the "Passenger Cars Going to Sea" program in 2021, BYD has expanded its business map to 78 countries and regions on 6 continents. Through a series of strategic measures such as localization and integration, BYD is gradually establishing a strong brand awareness and market share around the world.

Specifically, BYD has built a new energy vehicle production base in Segde, Hungary, which is BYD’s first new energy passenger car factory in Europe. Hungary is located in the center of Europe, with a mature automobile industry supporting system and relatively low labor costs, which also brings more help for BYD to enter the European market.

In addition to Hungary, BYD also plans to invest $1 billion in Turkey to build a factory with an annual output of 150,000 vehicles, which is expected to be put into operation in 2026. In Brazil, BYD spent R $3 billion to set up a large-scale production base complex consisting of three factories, covering the production of electric buses and truck chassis, the manufacturing of new energy passenger cars and the processing of lithium iron phosphate batteries. These overseas factories not only help BYD to better serve the local market, but also provide the company with a wider supply chain network and support system.

For a long time, BYD’s overseas expansion has not only focused on simple export sales, but also included the process of deep localization. Taking Thailand as an example, BYD not only launched product lines suitable for local market demand, such as Dolphin, Seal and Atto3, but also actively participated in local industrial chain construction, including establishing the first overseas passenger car factory in cooperation with WHA MUGUR PETRU CIUBANCAN Group, with an estimated annual production capacity of about 150,000 vehicles.

Similarly, in the Israeli market, Atto 3 (Yuan PLUS) has become the best-selling single model, which proves BYD’s deep understanding of consumer preferences in different regions and its adaptability. This localized operation mode also brings BYD a faster response speed to market changes, and at the same time effectively reduces the risks caused by international trade frictions.

  Conclusion:

Byd, with its profound technical accumulation, flexible market strategy and deep understanding of consumers’ preferences in various places, is steadily moving towards a broader development space. In this process, BYD has to face the uncertainty in the process of global economic recovery and the challenges brought by changes in trade policies. However, it is these uncertainties and challenges that will prompt BYD to innovate constantly and seek new development opportunities. We can foresee that it will continue to play an important role in the world in the future and have a lasting impact on the entire automobile industry.

Boiling wine on whether car iCAR 03 can make the brand come from behind.

  [car home Industry] In the field of new energy, it is obvious to all that the "new forces" have suppressed the traditional car companies. Faced with this situation, an important strategy for traditional China brand manufacturers is to change their thinking and create a brand-new brand which is significantly different from the original brand in terms of design style, positioning and concept. This kind of brand, which is different from both new forces and traditional car companies, is called "traditional new forces" by many people. From the earlier Ai ‘an, Polar Fox, Lantu and Euler, to the more recent Polar Krypton, Tengshi, Zhizhi, Feifan, Aouita and Deep Blue, the camp of this new category has become increasingly large.

Home of the car

  After experiencing some initial twists and turns and the pains of some brands, the "traditional new forces" camp has gradually found the right direction and gradually got better. For example, in Ai ‘an, sales in May exceeded 45,000 vehicles. Up-and-coming stars like Krypton and Deep Blue, the monthly sales can also be stabilized at the level of seven or eight thousand and continue to grow. Aouita, Zhiji and Feifan, including Lantu, are gradually getting rid of the dilemma of traditional car companies in the field of new energy.

  You may start snapping your fingers: Great Wall, Chang ‘an, Geely and even BYD, Guangzhou Automobile, SAIC and BAIC all have them, but who is worse? Chery! Indeed, although Chery set foot in the field of pure electricity very early with "Chery New Energy", the market performance of products such as small ants and QQ ice cream is also remarkable, but obviously this is not a "traditional new force". Thus, there is the protagonist discussed in this paper: iCAR.

  Chery released a brand new brand iCAR as early as April this year, and its first production car (|) also rolled off the assembly line in June. So, as such a latecomer, is iCAR going with the flow, or is it going to catch up? Perhaps, we can find some answers from iCAR 03, which has partially released information.

Positioning: a very clever "young card"

  When it comes to new forces, many people will subconsciously pop up a keyword: "high-end". Both Tesla and Wei Xiaoli are following this idea. It is precisely because of the success of these pioneers that more imitators have been inspired-look at the "traditional new forces" listed at the beginning of the article, from Lantu to Krypton, from Zhiji to Aouita, all of which started with 300,000 yuan.

  Regardless of whether this move is right or wrong, the result is undoubtedly that the track is very crowded. This year’s price reduction tide, the products in this price segment also belong to the "hardest hit"-the decline is less than 50,000 yuan, which is considered very "firm". If iCAR also participates in this battle group, obviously there will be no good results.

Home of the car

  ICAR repeatedly stressed at the brand launch that its target group is young people, without consideration and multi-level coverage. The "I" LOGO, which is like a grid and a jigsaw puzzle, and a series of interpretations of the "I" letter at the press conference all seem to emphasize that this is a new brand of power for young people. Of course, a more accurate measure of positioning is the price range of ICAR 03.15 million yuan, which completely avoids the confrontation with the mainstream new forces.

  Note that this "150,000 yuan interval" of iCAR 03 is completely different from the "150,000 yuan interval" of second-line new power products such as zero running. Instead of creating a homogeneous product with a size similar to that on the market, it relies on new product design ideas to create a model that faces a specific group, fills the gap in the market, and has strong product strength.

Chery new energy iCAR 03 2023 basic model

  Those who win the youth win the world. These "great truths" are simple to say. Many manufacturers may also think so when they set up the project. However, if we really want to do well and succeed, it will test the team’s basic skills-not only the innovation ability, but also the control of market demand. Of course, we can’t judge whether iCAR 03 can be successful at present, but it doesn’t prevent us from seeing how it is done.

Design: Re-innovation under the trend of hard core

  When you see iCAR 03, most people may think of the key word "hard". Obviously, this just resonates with the trend. In the past two years, from the Bronco, tanks and big dogs in fuel vehicles to the "big hits" in new energy vehicles that have not yet been listed, all of them confirm the preference of the current user groups for this style.

Chery new energy iCAR 03 2023 basic model

  However, from the official announcement, iCAR does not seem to regard iCAR 03 as a hard-core SUV. The official definition is ARV. This AR can be understood as ALL ROAD or ALL ROLES. From some known information, iCAR 03 has indeed been strengthened in some aspects. For example, although it adopts a full-load all-aluminum body structure, it also adopts an integrated die-casting longitudinal beam. That is to say, while being extremely lightweight, the demand for body stiffness is fully considered. However, this does not mean that iCAR 03 is a hard-core SUV. It is more like a design product under this style trend, but it is by no means a big toy to satisfy cross-country enthusiasts.

  From our point of view, iCAR 03 adopts this design idea, which is more to reflect another level of understanding of pure electric vehicles and another creativity in vehicle design.

  Why are the products of the new forces popular? There are many reasons, but the bold breakthrough in design is absolutely indispensable. The new forces, represented by Tesla, pay more attention to streamline modeling and sense of movement, which has a lot to do with their demand to flaunt the high performance of fuel vehicles at the same price.

  However, if we change our thinking, from another point of view, this straight-line style design actually fits well with the positioning of pure electricity.

  You can pay attention to a data. ICAR 03 has a body length of 4406mm, but its visual impact on people is much higher than this figure, which is roughly equivalent to that of a compact fuel SUV. The reason for this is that, in addition to its straight line "significantly larger", the wheelbase of 2715mm also contributed.

  Yes, the exaggerated axle length ratio is a major feature of pure electric vehicles. The addition of hard-core style modeling will also be revolutionary for the expansion of the interior space. Although we haven’t actually experienced it, we boldly predict that the driving space of iCAR 03 will exceed many people’s expectations.

  Another reason why we agree that iCAR 03 is not "hard-core" is that it does not take the retro route in modeling, which is a significant difference from many hard-core SUVs at present. On the contrary, iCAR 03 pays more attention to the sense of the future in many detail designs. For example, its logo, the shape of the front and rear lights including the integration of logo elements, and the straight lines with a concept car style can clearly reflect this feature.

  Because of this, we believe that design creativity is likely to become an important plus item of iCAR 03 product strength. This is also in line with the consistent logic of the success of new forces, including traditional new forces products.

Application: keep up with the tide and pinpoint the pain point

  If positioning and creativity "pass", a new product will have a high probability of "passing". And the final key will be reflected in the product strategy. Since iCAR 03 is only offline, we can only analyze and "look forward" based on the existing information.

Home of the car

  Judging from the official announcement, iCAR 03 repeatedly emphasizes "scene intelligence". This can be understood as a feature of its intelligent car machine. There are more and more signs that cars, or more accurately, smart cars, will become the most important intelligent terminal after PCs and mobile phones. Some analysts in the semiconductor industry even hope that semiconductors will be intelligent in vehicles for a long time from the growth cycle. As a new brand with young people as the target group, it is normal for iCAR to focus on this aspect.

  Before the actual experience, what we can do at present can only be "talking from pictures" and "talking on paper". Judging from the published interior drawings, the technological atmosphere of iCAR 03 cockpit can be described as "full enough". Many people’s eyes may be attracted by the color matching of rose gold and the elaborate crystal shift knob for the first time, but we are more concerned about its screen and the content displayed on it. Although the size of the central control panel is unknown at present, it is quite impressive from the visual effect-it is large enough, and the visual effect brought by the narrow side screen is advanced enough. Of course, the more important point is the interface and system.

  Since I haven’t experienced it, is this link "nothing to say"? That’s not true. You can notice the i-VA virtual human on the interior diagram, which will be an important part of the iCAR 03 intelligent car machine and the "scene intelligence" advocated by it. From the official announcement, iCAR 03 will pay more attention to interaction and intelligent service. This is different from the current "volume" culture that pays too much attention to computing power and chip equipment. It can be seen that iCAR 03 wants to better satisfy young drivers and passengers through "scene intelligence", so that they can not only experience the intelligent service of iCAR 03 without influence, but also be willing to interact with iCAR 03 system.

Chery new energy iCAR 03 2023 basic model

  At present, there is no clear information about the three power companies that everyone is concerned about. Officially declared as "intelligent adaptive electric four-wheel drive equivalent to 2.5TGDI power", this description should be enough to make people "relax" about its power. As for the battery life, there won’t be much suspense: based on the current industrial chain, Chery New Energy’s precipitation in the three-electricity technology and the control of the mainstream market demand, the final result should not be disappointing. Instead of "speculating", it is better to leave a suspense until the listing to see how many surprises it can bring.

  However, one thing is certain, and it is also the strength of traditional new forces, that is, service and channel construction. According to Chloe Wang, iCAR has already started channel construction, and it is estimated that 200 brand updates and 100 sales centers can be achieved by October. These 300 stores can cover more than 78% of the cities in the country. Combined with the interaction of virtual digital people and the establishment of MY iCAR user brand, iCAR’s service card can also have more expectations.

Summary:

  Although there are frequent new cars in the new energy market, the competition seems to be getting more and more intense (otherwise there will be no remarkable price reduction tide), but in the price range of about 150 thousand, there are still few products that are creative enough to attract young consumers and cost-effective. ICAR 03 has found a blue ocean for itself while meeting the needs of specific groups through its unique design and accurate card position. Judging from the available information, iCAR 03 has the foundation of catching up, but the final result depends on its product strategy at the time of listing, as well as its service and quality.

From human measurement to computer measurement, the Intelligent Evaluation of Driving can be more reliable.

  Hey! It’s going to hit!

  If you often pay attention to the short video of evaluating the intelligent driving ability of the car, I believe you will not be unfamiliar with this beginning. From the beginning of the video, I have been working hard to catch the audience’s eye all the time. Screaming, cheering, ups and downs of the "plot" throughout the video.

  The video is breathtaking and full of traffic, but it gives people a feeling — — I said everything, as if I didn’t say anything. An autopilot engineer also lamented helplessly that most of the intelligent driving tests on the market now lack professionalism and are too subjective and one-sided. "Just watch it as an entertainment program."

  A few years ago, in order to test AEB, people and cars made of cardboard were used as obstacles from the media. Not only was the professionalism questioned by the audience, but even the car companies finally went to court.

  And high-order intelligent driving is far more difficult than AEB test. Not only fairness and justice are needed, but also stronger professionalism is needed. It is more difficult, more uncertain and more complicated. How to judge as objectively as possible is also the key.

  At the same time, the location of the test is also particularly important. Nowadays, high-level intelligent driving is moving towards the "no map era", and many car companies have started the slogan of "all the countries can open". However, many tests are still clustered in first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen, and what’s more, they are directly tested by lines arranged by car companies. In this scenario, whether the car companies have made "software special adjustments" or "fake maps" is probably unknown, including the media evaluated.

  Needless to say, this test result not only can’t truly reflect the intelligent driving ability of a car, but also can’t prove that a car can have similar performance in other parts of the country.

  This also makes many users feel "confused". "After reading so many evaluations, it seems that I can’t tell who is good and who is bad." A friend who is interested in intelligent driving commented on today’s intelligent driving evaluation.

  However, there is an intelligent driving test video in a video column recently, which is somewhat different.

  2 million devices "get on the bus", and the professionalism is further improved.

  In July this year, Baidu’s smart car test video column "Intelligent Evaluation of Driving" released two new videos. Different from the usual intelligent driving test, this test directly uses the R&D-level auxiliary driving truth equipment of automobile enterprises. The total price of this equipment is close to 2 million yuan, including three mechanical lidar, optical fiber integrated inertial navigation system, time synchronization equipment, horizon smart camera, several cameras, acquisition industrial computer and industrial computer display.

  This set of equipment can record a lot of information. For example, test the vehicle’s body posture, acceleration, position with other traffic participants, and the distance from the lane lines on both sides in the lane. This information is of great significance to objectively analyze the intelligent driving ability of a car.

  Using this set of equipment, the evaluation has entered a more professional and objective era of "machine measurement" from the stage of "human measurement". The output of "anthropometry" is mostly subjective, but it lacks strict unified scales and standards, and it is difficult to give quantitative results and analyze specific problems. The "machine test" can accurately record the assisted driving performance of the vehicle. For example, the acceleration value given by inertial navigation system can be used to accurately measure the braking ease or braking urgency of a car; Whether a car is centered in the lane or whether there is a phenomenon of "painting dragons", you can use the images taken by the camera to record the distance between the car and the lane lines on both sides.

  Looking through the previous videos of "Intelligent Evaluation of Driving", we can find that they have used this set of truth-assisted driving equipment to test high-level intelligent driving since the program was launched in September 2023. This is also the first time in the industry that the media has adopted this equipment for testing, which is the first in the industry.

  Intelligent driving Baoding test? Closer to the user’s real car scene

  The latest two videos have chosen the stage of intelligent driving test in Baoding, Hebei. As a second-tier city, Baoding will not be given priority by the "special adjustment" of car companies, and the road conditions in Baoding are highly complex, and there are many other traffic participants such as electric vehicles, which makes the test difficult. This ensures that the column can test the ultimate capacity of a car under the condition of "no picture" and no special adjustment, and the reference value is higher for users.

  This test restores the user’s car scene as much as possible. For example, the test time is selected at the congested road section in the morning and evening rush hours, and it includes scenes such as intersections and unprotected left turns that occur frequently in the city; At the same time, in addition to the working condition of urban roads, the test also added scenes such as high-speed roads and rural roads to ensure that more scenes that users care about are covered, and practical reference content is provided for users.

  At the same time, the test not only covers unprotected left turn, morning and evening rush hour congested roads, expressways and country roads, but also tests special tests with Baoding characteristics and high difficulty, such as "true and false right turn lanes", "tidal left turn intersection" and "Liudaokou".

  Choose a car to buy a car, watch intelligent evaluation, and search for "intelligent evaluation of driving" on Baidu APP.

  If you have been paying attention to the column "Intelligent Evaluation of Driving", you will know that these two programs are only their "basic operations".

  As early as 2022, Baidu’s professional active safety test caused widespread concern. The test not only uses professional equipment and venues, but also covers extreme working conditions such as fog, rainy day, night and backlight. These tests have aroused heated discussions among the audience and manufacturers, and even promoted the algorithm upgrade of the main engine factory, improving the shortcomings of active safety of smart cars. In 2023, Baidu Youjia launched a strategic cooperation with the National Automobile Quality Inspection and Testing Center (Tongzhou, Beijing) to jointly pay attention to the field of automobile intelligence and jointly formulate and publish a scientific and perfect evaluation system, which undoubtedly made the intelligent evaluation of Youjia more credible.

  With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, intelligence has become the focus of the "second half competition" of new energy vehicles. The intelligence level of a car will affect the decision-making of users and the key battlefield of R&D and announcement of car companies. To this end, Baidu Youjia, as a professional automobile media, launched the first large-scale automobile intelligent evaluation program "Intelligent Evaluation of Youjia" in the whole network.

Easily teach yourself to change the filter: DIY guide for air conditioning and air filter

After a certain number of kilometers, some consumables in the car have to be replaced, otherwise it will affect the performance and comfort of the car, such as engine oil, machine filter, steam filter, air filter, brake oil and so on.

Today we will talk about how to replace the air filter and air conditioner filter.

Prepare materials: Pay attention to the air filter and air conditioning filter purchased, which must match your car model, otherwise it will not be installed!

Installation method of air filter element

First, drive the car to a clean and flat site, open the hood to see where the air filter is. Generally, there is a big black plastic box in front of the driver’s side, which is the air filter box.

Second, find a screwdriver to remove the screws of the air filter box in turn and put them in the proper place. Be careful not to drop them in the engine compartment, otherwise it will be difficult to take them. Some boxes are designed without screws, and they are usually buckled, so just move them directly. Open the lid of the box, and you will see a white or orange wrinkled thing, which is an air filter. Write down its installation direction and take it off.

Third, tear open the packaging of the new air filter and put it in according to the installation direction just noted. Be careful not to turn the front and back upside down. Generally, the plane is up and the folded face is down. Adjust the gap between the air filter and the box so that there is no gap, or it will leak in. When it’s done, cover it and tighten the screws.

Installation method of air conditioning filter element:

First, the air conditioning filter of most cars is in the glove box of the co-pilot. Let’s take this as an example today. Sit in the passenger seat, set the seat to the back, open the glove box, and take out all your personal belongings and put them on the other side.

Second, observe the movable pull rods fixed on both sides of the glove box. Generally, the right side is semi-fixed on the center console. Hold the ring of the fixed rod with a screwdriver, and don’t use too much force. When you hear a click, take the fixed ring off the fixed pin. Press the glove box to the lowest level to see if there is a black plastic box inside the center console. Generally, that is the air conditioning filter box.

Third, after finding the air-conditioning filter box, see if there is a rectangular baffle on it, that is, the air-conditioning filter baffle. If there is a screw, just use a screwdriver to directly break the buckle and drag it out. Write down the installation direction and front and back of the old filter element and take it out. Put the new filter element in the right direction, clamp the air conditioning filter cover plate and install the glove box. Over!

Start the car inspection after installation:

Don’t cover the engine compartment, start the car, hit the accelerator a few times, listen to the engine compartment for abnormal noise, and if so, continue to check. Turn on the air conditioner, turn on the internal circulation and smell whether the smell inside the car is fresh and normal. Just check that everything is all right.

The advantage of replacing spare parts by yourself is that you can improve your understanding of your car, and the accessories in online shopping or retail stores are cheaper than those in 4S stores, which can reduce the cost of car use.

Domestically, there is a "macho man’s car", and the Dongfeng warrior 917 arrives at the store, and the style is pulling generate’s thousand horsepower

Obviously, since the arrival of the Great Wall and its new brand tanks, it has not only won a very strong sales performance for itself, but also truly vindicated the domestic hard-core off-road! In order to grasp this newly opened "fertile soil", for a time, the vocabulary of "domestic macho car" was endless. Even the Dongfeng Warrior series, which appeared to be "the dragon sees the head but does not see the tail" because of the limited production in the early years, began to increase its production proportion in the civil car market. It is also in line with the current market trend of new energy vehicles, and launched a pure electric vehicle. And it is the brand-new Dongfeng Warrior 917!

Thanks to the completion of the mass production process of Dongfeng Warrior 917, a few days ago, some netizens took pictures of the first batch of models for display at the local dealers. Then, as a new "macho car" made in China, what are the highlights of Dongfeng Warrior 917? Below, let’s take a look at it through the lens of netizens.

First of all, from the appearance, the design trend of Dongfeng Warrior 917 is very in line with its qualitative style of "macho car". The front face of the new car has angular lines, and the unique headlight dress, combined with solid front enclosure and large-size blackened radiator; At first glance, you can’t escape the essence of fashion.

The side part of the car body is also cut with sharp lines with strong "mecha wind" to create a burly figure that a hard-core off-road SUV should have. The climbing ladder of C-pillar and the roof rack effectively sublimate its hard-core attributes at the detail level. In terms of body size, the Warrior 917 has a length, width and height of 4987/2080/1935mm and a wheelbase of 2950mm; The "physique" aspect is quite in line with the characteristics revealed by its shape.

In the rear part, the square box "schoolbag" with the word "warrior" is added. With the T-shaped rear enclosure and vertical cross taillights, it can not only echo the painting style of the front face similar to "chariot", but also correspond to the aesthetic feeling of science fiction.

The interior part has not been officially made public. However, referring to the spy photos previously exposed, it is not difficult to find that, as a pure electric vehicle, its large-size full-LCD instrument and central control screen, together with the horizontal push electronic gear handle, can not only correspond to the scientific and technological atmosphere that its new energy vehicle should have, but also meet the domineering feeling that its hard-core off-road vehicle should have.

As for performance, according to official information, Dongfeng Warrior 917 will be available in pure electric version and extended version. Among them, the pure electric version will be equipped with four drive motors, with a comprehensive horsepower of 1,000 horses in generate and a comprehensive maximum torque of 1,240 Nm, which can even support this "big guy" to complete the ability of breaking 100 in 4.2S; In addition, its comprehensive cruising range is 500 kilometers. The extended-range version is based on the 1.5T four-cylinder engine developed by Dongfeng, with a total power of 600 kW and a comprehensive torque of 950 Nm, and has the ability to break through 100 in 6S and a comprehensive cruising range of 800 km. The front/rear double wishbone independent suspension system, air suspension and CDC "magic carpet chassis" system, M ATS all-terrain mode and crab walking mode can not only show its luxurious comfort, but also meet the strong performance of its hard-core off-road models.

So, ladies and gentlemen, will you look forward to the official launch of Dongfeng Warrior 917, a brand-new domestic "macho car"?

Deepen the promotion of network security work at a new starting point

  According to "2006— China’s informatization has entered the fast lane of rapid development for ten years. The development of information and communication technology is changing with each passing day, and ten years is enough to turn the world upside down. Today’s application scenarios of information development have exceeded the imagination of any prophet. The Outline of National Informatization Development Strategy (hereinafter referred to as "the Strategic Outline") implements the strategic thought of the Supreme Leader’s General Secretary to strengthen the country through the Internet, and makes an analysis of the "2006— The National Informatization Development Strategy in 2020 has been adjusted and developed, which has made overall arrangements for the informatization work in the next decade. Among them, the "Strategic Outline" puts forward new and higher requirements for network security work on the basis of summarizing the existing achievements and facing the great demand of maintaining national security in the new period.

  Compared with the deployment of network security work ten years ago, the Strategic Outline has the following series of important changes:

  In terms of guidelines, the dialectical relationship between security and development has been further deepened.

  In 2003, the Central Office and the State Council issued the first programmatic document "Opinions on Strengthening Information Security" (No.27 [2003] of the Central Office) in China’s network security. At that time, the document profoundly pointed out that the relationship between security and development should be correctly handled, so as to ensure development with security and seek security in development. Therefore, the informatization strategy in 2006 takes it as an important guiding principle.

  The Strategic Outline further explains the dialectical relationship between security and development, which is "one body, two wings and two wheels drive", and upgrades "ensuring development through security and seeking security through development" to "ensuring development through security and promoting security through development". "Ensuring development with safety" shows that safety is the foundation of development, and "seeking safety in development" emphasizes solving safety problems in development, rather than ensuring safety with stagnant development. However, "promoting security through development" further requires that security problems should be solved by means of development and provide a material basis for maintaining network security through development. This is in line with the thought of "Qiang Bing can be defended only when the country is rich, and Qiang Bing can defend the country" in the overall national security concept of the Supreme Leader, which is very rich in connotation and sublimates the dialectical relationship between security and development to a new height.

  In terms of strategic objectives, we will make solid progress towards "a network power"

  The overall goal of the informatization development strategy in 2006 is to "greatly improve the level of national information security", which is not a measurable goal with stage characteristics and has little guiding significance for practical work. This is related to the weak network security foundation and too many clues in China at that time. In terms of specific objectives, the informatization development strategy in 2006 proposed to break through and master a number of key and core technologies by 2020, and realize the leap of information technology from tracking and introduction to independent innovation, and generally demanded that "the national information security guarantee system is relatively perfect and the information security guarantee capability is significantly enhanced".

  The "Strategic Outline" clearly requires that in 2025, "the situation that core technologies are subject to people will be fundamentally changed and a safe and controllable information technology industry system will be formed". The core technology is the "life gate" of network security. As long as this problem is not solved, our network security system will be unstable and in danger. If ten years later, at the end of the "14th Five-Year Plan", we still can’t reverse the situation of being controlled by others, "network power" and "the Chinese nation’s great rejuvenation of the Chinese dream" are really out of the question. For such a very specific and crucial goal, we have no retreat, otherwise we will bear historical responsibility. Of course, this is a great test of perseverance, confidence and focus.

  On this basis, the "Strategic Outline" points out that network security should be "advanced in technology, developed in industry, leading in application and indestructible in network security", which is another measurable and meaningful goal. "Invincible" means invincible in confrontation, which is an inevitable requirement for safeguarding national security.

  Reveal and follow the inherent laws of network security more comprehensively.

  The information strategy in 2006 has a basic grasp of the inherent law of network security: network security is based on risk, and it is necessary to comprehensively balance the cost and risk of security, and to prevent both over-protection and under-protection. This basic law directly determines what method to use to maintain network security, and then the deployment of information security level protection, risk assessment and other work comes from this.

  But this is only part of the inherent law of network security. With the deepening understanding of the objective world, the "Strategic Outline" points out that it is necessary to "establish a correct network security concept". This includes five aspects: network security is holistic rather than fragmented; Network security is dynamic rather than static; Network security is open rather than closed; Network security is relative rather than absolute; Network security is common rather than isolated. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made a profound exposition on the "correct concept of network security" at the symposium on network security and informatization on April 19th. The inherent law is inviolable, and any work should be consistent with it, otherwise it will get twice the result with half the effort, or even go the opposite way.

  From "prevention" to "response", both defense and deterrence capabilities are simultaneously developed.

  The informatization strategy in 2006 requires "active defense and comprehensive defense", which are actually the same thing, both of which focus on "defense", but the former emphasizes the ex ante nature of actions and the latter emphasizes the comprehensiveness of means. However, the "defense" and "prevention" that are "active" and "comprehensive" are defense after all. Facing the severe situation of network security struggle, we urgently need to form the network deterrent ability. Of course, this is not to develop cyber attacks, but to make opponents "think twice before taking action" through deterrence capacity building, so as to deter wars, achieve the purpose of protecting themselves more effectively, and achieve real stability and balance in cyberspace.

  Therefore, the "Strategic Outline" is changed to "actively defend and take the initiative to respond" and "enhance the defensive ability and deterrent ability of network security", which is of great significance to safeguarding the sovereignty, security and development interests of national cyberspace.

  The important task of maintaining "network sovereignty" was put forward for the first time.

  The principle of network sovereignty is the core proposition of global cyberspace security in China. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader proposed at the Second world internet conference that we should respect cyber sovereignty, refrain from cyber hegemony, not interfere in other countries’ internal affairs, and not engage in, condone or support cyber activities that endanger other countries’ national security. China’s National Security Law stipulates that the sovereignty, security and development interests of national cyberspace should be safeguarded. The "Strategic Outline" regards "safeguarding network sovereignty" as a major task and requires "firmly defending China’s network sovereignty". Sovereignty is inviolable and the issue of sovereignty is non-negotiable. In order to safeguard network sovereignty, we should take all means, including politics, diplomacy, economy and justice, without excluding military means.

  "Cybersovereignty" is a major change in the Strategic Outline compared with the information strategy in 2006, which is an inevitable requirement to enhance China’s institutional discourse power in global cyberspace governance activities.

  The focus of protection has expanded from "2+8" to critical information infrastructure.

  Any country’s informatization or network security strategy must determine the protection focus, which is the "prescribed action" of the strategic document. In 2006, the key point of informatization strategy was "basic information network and important information system related to national security, economic lifeline and social stability". In practical work, it is specifically implemented as radio and television transmission network, telecommunication network, Internet, and information systems in banking, insurance, securities, civil aviation, railways, taxation, customs, electric power and other fields, commonly known as "2+8" (the three basic networks are under the charge of two ministries).

  With the accelerated penetration of information and communication technology in various industries of the national economy, the scope of protection mentioned above is obviously too narrow. In addition, in view of the importance of such systems, it is necessary to establish a special safety management system. Therefore, in recent years, China has put forward the concept of "key information infrastructure", which has replaced "basic information network and important information system". The "Strategic Outline" requires "establishing and implementing a protection system for key information infrastructure". Recently, the Cyber Security Law (the second draft for review) echoed this, pointing out that "the specific scope of key information infrastructure and security protection measures shall be formulated by the State Council".

  Have a deeper understanding of the relationship between openness and autonomy, and establish the ability to maintain national network security in an open environment.

  When formulating the information strategy in 2006, openness and autonomy have not yet become a pair of main contradictions, and the understanding of this issue is still at a shallow level. At present, with the deepening of economic globalization, information flow leads the flow of technology, capital and talents. How to dialectically understand and handle the relationship between openness and autonomy is a new topic. On the one hand, when determining the breakthrough route of core technology, we should consider how to use global innovation resources and choose the right "shoulder"; On the other hand, our network security policy should take into account WTO commitments. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader profoundly pointed out that we should not shut ourselves out of the world, but must establish a global vision and an open mind. However, maintaining national network security in an open environment requires scientific means to ensure the safety and controllability of products and services, and to prevent product providers from illegally controlling, interfering with and interrupting user systems and illegally collecting, storing, processing and utilizing user-related information by providing products. This is the network security review system, which is deployed as an important strategic task in the Strategic Outline.

  Further strengthen basic work.

  The foundation is not firm, and the ground shakes. Network security work should always focus on laying a solid foundation. But in different periods, the content of basic work is different. On the one hand, the "Strategic Outline" requires continuing to do basic work with long-term characteristics, such as network security technology research and development, level protection, risk assessment, talent education, standardization and so on; On the other hand, for the special basic work that has not been completed as scheduled, it is also required to get results as soon as possible, such as network security certification and accreditation. In addition, in view of the development of network security situation, some new basic work has been put on the agenda, such as situation awareness work, which will be gradually implemented under the guidance of the Strategic Outline.
