Chapter 3179: New idea

"In addition to these, the hydraulic retarder is connected in parallel or in series on the side of the transmission, so that heavy-duty vehicles are no longer afraid of downhill sections and effectively and efficiently improve mountain driving safety."

Sandra still has feelings for Steyr, so when she speaks, she strives to use all the advanced technology in the heavy trucks here.

Because, exporting directly from Han to Europa will have a lot of resistance. After all, the heavy-duty truck companies here have already formed a few dominant players. Mercedes-Benz, Scania, MAN, these manufacturers are firmly established. Land control controls the heavy-duty truck market in Europa, and even Eagle Country’s heavy-duty trucks cannot enter.

If Han's heavy trucks want to enter, they must rely on strength, absolute strength.

Through the acquisition of Steyr Motors and the creation of advanced heavy trucks, the market in Western Europe was opened in one fell swoop. Now that we have encountered this opportunity, we have to grasp it naturally.

"Wait, what's the matter with autonomous driving?" Alexander couldn't keep up with Sandra's rhythm.

"The era of the future is the era of intelligence. Humans will be replaced. Just like the mechanized looms used in large quantities in the textile industry in the past, replacing the previous manual looms. In the future, cars will be automated. The profession of driving, unmanned driving, and driver will disappear in the future, and our northern heavy truck plant is to achieve this development goal." Sandra said.

After that, I took a look at Alexander for nothing. Your eyes can no longer be seen in the long term, and you can't even see such an important trend.

In the future, the profession of driver will disappear, and cars will all be driven automatically. Although the realization of this technology requires a long process, as long as the goal is recognized, it is enough to work hard.

For automatic driving, it must be an automatic gearbox. The hydraulic retarder is also an inevitable means of downhill. These are all improvements made on the gearbox. Now, it is here to officially enter this unknown field. Right.

"Let's talk about the engine." Sandra continued his introduction: "Emission regulations in various countries will become more and more stringent. Vehicles that do not meet the emission standards will face more and more restrictions in the future. We are just now Europa. However, as a company that loves the environment, our engine will directly achieve the subsequent No. 3 exhaust emission standard, which will be ahead of the curve within ten years."

"Is this necessary?" Alexander asked, "If it's just a slogan, it's not worth it."

Now, even the various car companies in Europa do not take exhaust emissions seriously. The current standards are still very wide and it is easy to meet the standards. As for the subsequent standards, who knows whether they can be achieved? we'll talk about it then.

But now, in your side, you have to rise to the No. 3 standard all at once? Is this too advanced? It's not necessary!

"Of course it is not only for publicity slogans, but more for performance." Sandra continued.

At present, most diesel engines still use normal mechanical control methods. The higher the speed, the greater the torque, but at the same time, the more fuel consumption will be. For customers who use cars, they all value fuel consumption. With the rise of world oil prices, fuel consumption is the biggest expense of users.

The lower the fuel consumption, the better the opportunity to lead in market competition.

"Taking the current international standards as an example, even those advanced car companies whose heavy trucks have a total weight of 55 tons, on normal road sections, have fuel consumption of about 40 liters per 100 kilometers. "Sandra said: "If we apply our new technology, this fuel consumption will be reduced to about 30 liters per hundred kilometers."

What you save is what you earn! If you go out, other cars cost four thousand fuel, your own only three thousand, the extra one thousand will be saved!

"It's impossible." Hearing this, Alexander shook his head. If you say that you can reduce it by one liter or two liters, he can still accept it. If you directly reduce it by ten liters, it is definitely a joke.

Yes, this is just kidding!

"First of all, our engine uses a high-pressure common rail injection system. The injection is completely controlled by a computer. This allows the engine to achieve the maximum torque in the most fuel-efficient speed range." Sandra knew that the other party would not be easy. Believe, so, I immediately made an explanation: "In this speed range, from 1,400 to 1,700 rpm, compared to those heavy trucks that often run at 2,000 rpm, do you think you can increase the fuel consumption? "

This is a need to improve the driving style. Many old drivers like the throttle to the end when they get in the car. They feel that this is the most powerful. Now, the most advanced heavy truck in Han is no longer like this. The engine is at a medium speed, and the fuel consumption is low. It is also strong, which can only be achieved by advanced high-pressure common rail engines.

At the same time, because it is difficult for old drivers to change their habits, they must use automatic transmissions!

A smart gearbox can perform various operations on its own, keeping the engine working in the most fuel-efficient range at all times, and at the same time full of power. In this way, fuel saving is no longer unimaginable.

After Sandra introduced these, she was silent for a long time.

If it’s just for an environmental protection slogan, of course it’s not worth it, but if it’s fuel saving, it’s different. Because of the use of electronic injection, the engine’s ECU will refuse to perform excessive injection even if the driver’s accelerator pedal is fully depressed Fuel order, otherwise, the fuel in the engine will not be completely burned, and will only cause more carbon deposits.

It not only saves fuel, but also saves maintenance costs.

"As for maintenance, we have a greater advantage here." Sandra continued: "Our entire vehicle uses a 100,000-kilometer-long oil change method, which means that every 100,000 kilometers the user operates , Will enter the repair station once."

"One hundred thousand kilometers?" Alexander was left in awe.

A normal vehicle is maintained at a time of 5,000 or 10,000 kilometers, which may not matter to a car, but for a heavy truck that runs all day, it may be half a month, and you have to enter the repair station once, which greatly reduces The efficiency of attendance.

What if it is 100,000 kilometers? In those six months, even a year, one maintenance is enough.

Now, they have nothing to say. These technologies are indeed the most advanced in the world and are indeed worthy of cooperation!

You know, when the news of Steyr's decision to sell its heavy-duty truck business came out, many companies have come. MAN, who ignored them before, is now the most sincere. After all, they are all companies in Europa, Feishui It doesn't flow outsiders' fields, and the various practices of the northern heavy truck factory make them very dissatisfied.

And now, the prospects and future outlined by the Northern Heavy Truck Plant for them are definitely beyond the reach of other plants.
