Recently, the 7th China New Energy Commercial Vehicle Industry Conference in 2024 concluded successfully in Chengdu. Against the backdrop of vigorous development in new productive forces, SAIC Hongyan has integrated intelligence and new energy to bring innovative and high-value adaptive solutions to users. The Smart Electric Version New Energy Heavy Truck, with its core advantages of “Intelligence in Abundance, High Energy at Charge,” won the “Annual Green Card” award at this conference.
Amid the global energy transformation and technological innovation, SAIC Hongyan, with its deep accumulation in new energy and intelligence technologies, is steadily leading the heavy truck industry, continuously driving its transformation and development. Adhering to the R&D concept of “Defining Products by Scenes, Deciding Experiences by Data,” SAIC Hongyan has highly integrated four core technologies—intelligence, connectivity, customization, and integration—with new energy. The industry-first adaptive scene technology, leading with the product value of “Intelligence in Abundance, High Energy at Charge,” guides the new energy scene TCO, providing users with the most sensible solutions in “power, safety, driving, and operation.”
The award of the “Green Card” to SAIC Hongyan’s New Energy Heavy Truck is the best proof of the company’s strength and market reputation. The Smart Electric Version New Energy Heavy Truck comprehensively enhances the market competitiveness of SAIC Hongyan’s new energy products. In terms of intelligence, the Smart Electric Version New Energy Heavy Truck achieves intelligent calculation and iterative intelligence. The vehicle comes standard with FOTA function across the board and features industry-first adaptive scene technology, precise matching of user scenarios, and optimal data version push, achieving optimal control of scene energy consumption. Through cloud data perception of scenes, the vehicle adjusts the overall power strategy intelligently and timely, reducing energy consumption by 30% compared to the industry average. During transportation, the vehicle can analyze actual scene conditions and formulate optimal power calibration strategies in real time through big data intelligence and remote updates, with energy recovery of up to 70%.
The Smart Electric Version Heavy Truck also performs impressively in range and attendance, equipped with a large-capacity battery of 282 kWh to 350 kWh, achieving a range of over 230 km and supporting high-power output. It combines charging and swapping, ensuring that the vehicle completes swapping in 3 to 5 minutes and charging in 40 minutes, with super-long range and convenient energy replenishment. The industry-first use of high-speed oil-cooled flat wire motor technology ensures sustained climbing of 6 kilometers without power attenuation, with a maximum climbing angle exceeding 35%, ensuring adaptability to complex road conditions. With a transmission efficiency of over 97.5%, it maintains strong power even in high-temperature environments.
The Smart Electric Version Heavy Truck is highly integrated and lightweight, allowing for multiple loads in one trip. It introduces the industry-first five-in-one high-voltage controller, reducing the controller’s volume by 30% and weight by 30 kg, with a system efficiency of over 95%. Lightweight batteries and vehicle carrying systems allow for an additional load of 1000 kg per trip. With a vehicle curb weight of 9.9 tons and a usage cost as low as 0.5 yuan/km, it can save the cost of one vehicle in three years, suitable for scenarios such as steel, coal, sand, stone, and port towing transportation.
Looking back on its development journey, SAIC Hongyan has always adhered to its original intention, helping the heavy truck industry achieve sustainable development. In the future, SAIC Hongyan will continue to leverage its leading technological advantages in new productive forces, closely follow the trends of new energy, lightweight, intelligence, and connectivity, collaborate with more partners, and jointly create a true blue ocean for China’s automotive manufacturing in the new energy environment.
