Futian Euro V hybrid bus leveraging policy Dongfeng interpretation of "green" legend


Futianou V is refreshing an item record at the fastest speed. According to public information, Foton Euro V hybrid buses have been sold in large quantities in Guangzhou and Beijing. This is surprising compared to the situation in which most of the new energy buses launched by domestic auto makers are in the prototype or demonstration operation stage.

Then, in the cities of Jinan, Kunming, Hangzhou, Shanghai, Qingdao, Shenyang, and Zhejiang Yiwu, energy-saving and new energy buses have also started to emerge. The most important one is the Futian Euro V hybrid bus. "As an operator, we are most concerned with cost-effectiveness and energy consumption. When purchasing, the price of hybrid buses is definitely higher than that of traditional passenger cars. However, after one year of operation, these buses have a 98% attendance rate. The accumulated mileage (review picture forum) exceeds 1.2 million kilometers, and the maximum mileage of bicycles exceeds 60,000 kilometers. There is no major breakdown; and its average fuel consumption is more than 25% more than traditional models." Putting into operation 30 Futianou V Hybrids Zhang Weixiong, chairman of Guangzhou Bus No.1 Bus Co., Ltd., said the passenger car.

The achievement of these achievements can not be separated from one's hard work, even this person has acted as the Fukuda Europe V hybrid bus trader role. He is Liu Guoqiang, deputy general manager of Futian Europe V Bus Company. It is worth noting that before this, new energy vehicles, especially hybrid vehicles that are the closest to industrialization, have been controversial in the industry. There are debates on whether it is feasible, but there are also differences in direction and on the road. But some time ago the National Development and Reform Commission 164th "Vehicle Production Enterprises and Products Announcement" announced that a number of new energy vehicles have been awarded "grant licenses."

Hard work, come back later

In the hybrid bus market, where the market structure is still stable, Futianou V is undoubtedly a latecomer, and even it is still in the investment phase. However, no one can ignore it. On the contrary, it is considered by the industry that Futian Euro V and Yutong Bus (the oldest coach in China) are powerful contenders for changing the passenger car market pattern in the future.

“Being a new energy bus requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and how much money is invested will naturally make us back during the revenue period.” For the development of a new energy bus that some people think is “making money out of money,” Liu Guoqiang looks confident and calm. He stressed that Futianou V did long-term investment.

According to Liu Guoqiang, the Foton Euro V bus production line was established on September 16, 2003, with a total investment of 160 million yuan. The construction lasted for one year. The first Euro V bus was rolled out on November 30, 2004. Up to now, Foton Euro V has developed Pioneer series of intercity buses and Shinkansen series city buses and dozens of varieties. Among them, the hybrid city bus was successfully commercialized in January 2008, and the fuel cell bus has been successfully selected into the National 11th Five-year Plan “863” vehicle project. The European V passenger car, with its user-friendly design, novel and unique appearance, safe and reliable performance, and excellent cost performance, has been favored by the majority of users, and has quickly become a new force in the domestic passenger car market.

In recent years, Futian Euro V has continuously increased investment in R&D in energy-saving and environmental protection technologies, and has focused on the development of products with low energy consumption and high environmental protection. In particular, from 2008, the new energy passenger car production line with a total investment of 230 million yuan in Euro V buses was formally put into use, indicating that the European V passenger car has become a passenger car production base with first-class domestic manufacturing processes. At the same time, Futianou V also independently developed a full-load passenger car body structure by learning from Futian Automotive's strategic partner Mercedes-Benz bus technology and combining with the actual road conditions in China. "If our European V passenger car is fully loaded with 3-6 times the anti-torque strength of semi-loaded vehicles, it also has a strong anti-rollover capability, which greatly enhances the product's safety performance," stressed Liu Guoqiang.

For Foton Euro V buses, the industry’s opinion is that its passenger car products are already at the leading domestic level and have advantages such as energy saving, environmental protection, safety, comfort and fashion. "Technology Futianou V does not have any problem. Now, it is only targeted to put products in accordance with different market regulations." Liu Guoqiang admits that the difference between Futianou V and Other companies is that Futianou V has a very systematic product plan, not what to do in front of making money, but after analysis of the market, analysis of resources, and analysis of the competitive advantages of the company itself. The company has made product layouts for three segments of the bus, passenger, and travel markets, and detailed how to do it in each length segment and each platform.

According to Liu Guoqiang's introduction, Foton Euro V also has detailed plans for the development of new energy products. First, Futian Euro V is making great efforts in CNG alternative fuels, and has achieved breakthroughs in the bus and travel markets. Second, in terms of hybrid buses, Foton Euro V has taken the lead in the industry. Thirdly, in terms of fuel cells, it is still in the conceptual stage. Futianou V has made long-term preparations. It is believed that there must be something after 10 or 20 years. In fact, its prototype will begin its one-year trial run in Beijing on October 1 this year.

It is because of the hard work of Futian Europe V in highlighting the characteristics of its products “energy saving and new energy”. Now it is filed in the industry, Futianou V, everyone will first think of “hybrid buses” and “energy saving and environmental protection” and other key words. This is exactly what Liu Guoqiang looks forward to be able to play on the Futian Euro V body.

It is expected to become the "standard" for the automotive industry

Authoritative experts in the industry stated that under the background of “energy saving and emission reduction” has become a national policy, the development of new energy vehicles will surely be strongly promoted by the government, but the high cost is a bottleneck to the widespread application of commercial new energy vehicles. In response, Liu Guoqiang said firmly and optimistically, “Fukuda Europe V is preparing to use Guangzhou as a fulcrum, and (on January 11, 2008, 30 Futianou V hybrid buses were formally delivered to the Guangzhou First Bus Company) to continue to expand hybrid power. The practical scope of passenger cars is to be demonstrated in key cities in the country, and the use of fully market-based mechanisms will promote their popularity.

“We have been committed to the R&D and technological innovation of new energy bus products since its inception. After several years of hard work, we have already achieved the first commercialization of hybrid buses in the industry.” For the future of hybrid buses, Liu Guoqiang is Think that "hybrid buses will become the standard in the automotive industry."

In order to make the Foton Euro V bus more competitive, the green energy design and manufacturing technology of the Beijing New Energy Automotive Design and Manufacturing Industrial Engineering Base has been widely used in Futian Euro V's large and medium-sized buses, MPV [Review Photo Forum], In a full range of commercial vehicles such as heavy trucks and light trucks. “Beijing New Energy Automotive Design and Manufacturing Industrial Engineering Base has five major manufacturing processes including five manufacturing technologies for chassis manufacturing, body manufacturing, electrophoretic painting, assembly and testing, five major passenger car manufacturing processes and machining, and ATPU. Passenger car manufacturing has reached the international advanced level. The level of engine production and its 400,000 units of capacity and the high pressure common rail diesel engine that can meet Euro IV, Euro V and Euro VI emission standards are undisputedly the world's highest level energy-efficient engine manufacturing base.” said Liu Guoqiang. .

Industry experts also stated that in the field of new energy vehicles, the current gap between Chinese and foreign auto companies is not large. If the Chinese auto industry can seize this century-long strategic opportunity period and realize the integration of the entire industry chain, it is entirely possible to make breakthroughs in the new energy auto market and subvert the existing structure of the world auto industry. Futian Automobile has a long-term vision, taking new energy as the main direction for the future development of the company, winning the top spot in the battle for new energy, and achieving a strategic commanding height in the development of the industry. Therefore, Foton Motor will inevitably gain new competitive advantages and emerge in crisis. Become the new leader of the automotive industry in the future.

In response, Liu Guoqiang said: "The source of domestic bus companies is the same. The key to success or failure is whether companies can integrate their resources and become their own product highlights. Our approach is to enumerate all the vehicle indicators. , Including space utilization, security, energy saving and environmental protection features, etc., to see which one can lead the opponent.” Liu Guoqiang said.

Thanks to the strategic vision and meticulous cultivation of Foton Motors, Futian Eurobus has undergone continuous product development in recent years and has now formed a relatively complete product line covering a full range of 8-13.7m urban passenger cars and intercity cars. Passenger car products. Among them, all passenger-car products have been developed to complete 7.9- to 9-meter and 12-meter series intercity buses, and urban buses 11-12 meters have also been developed.

Liu Guoqiang said that the strategic objectives of research and application of energy-saving technologies have laid a solid foundation for the European V bus green tour. HEV has become an inevitable trend and important choice for the development of urban public transportation in the future with mature and reliable technology. The Futianou V BJ6113C7M4D and BJ612 [Review Photo Forum] 3C7B4D hybrid city bus is known as the "first hybrid vehicle in China". According to reports, the Euro V hybrid bus adopts a series-type energy hybrid electric-electric hybrid technology line with a fuel cell engine and a power battery pack. It truly achieves "zero emissions and zero pollution" and effectively meets the vehicle emission technology route. The ultimate goal of development.

The reason why Futianou V can achieve such a result is that Liu Guoqiang thinks that a very important reason is the background of Futianou V. The strength and influence of Foton Group in the field of commercial vehicles is not available to most bus companies, and Europe V can rely on the Group's management experience and parts supply system. For example, on March 13 this year, Beijing New Energy Automobile Industry Alliance was announced in Foton Motor. On August 28th, Beijing New Energy Automobile Design and Engineering Center was again in Foton Motor. The announcement of the headquarters building in Chengdu has greatly benefited us in the development of new energy buses; in addition, the Euro V buses have faithfully applied the Futian Auto Group’s adherence to independent innovation and new energy technology-oriented applications to the company.

Good "wind" interprets green legend

Taking a look at the history of the Futian Euro V bus, apart from vigorously seeking breakthroughs in new energy sources and striving to master the most advanced technologies, what Futianou V did was to introduce Futianou V through various large-scale events and unique promotion events. Product promotion. Liu Guoqiang's summary of this is "a good wind borrows a good force."

According to Liu Guoqiang, during the Beijing Olympics, Futian Euro V has three fuel cell buses (zero emissions, zero pollution) operating on bus 801 lines; at the 2010 Shanghai World Expo, Foton Euro V will also appear again, and Strive to expand the scale. It is worth noting that at the recent Futian Euro V Bus Products Promotion Conference in Shanghai, Foton Euro V buses, which have already taken the lead in the new energy bus industry, have demonstrated the exquisite technology and clear market for Futian Euro V buses to users in Shanghai. Competitive advantages have won many wins.
At the same time, Liu Guoqiang also began to travel frequently in Kunming, Hangzhou, Jinan, Qingdao and even Tangshan, expanding the sphere of influence of Foton Euro V. “Today, the Euro V hybrid bus has been demonstrated in Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenyang, Kunming, Jinan, and Yiwu, Zhejiang, and has achieved good results, especially in Guangzhou, Beijing, Jinan, and Taiwan. The sales of all-car passenger vehicles with light weight, low fuel consumption, and high safety have begun to be put into the market in batches, and low-pollution, low-consumption CNG city and city buses are also sold throughout the country,” said Liu Guoqiang.

If there is no accident, in February of next year, in the bustling sections of Taipei and Taipei County, the Euro V hybrid new energy bus with the Foton logo will begin to formally operate. Liu Guoqiang disclosed that on June 20 this year, Beiqi Foton Motor Co., Ltd. and Taiwan’s Chengyun Automobile Co., Ltd. formally signed a sales contract for 75 Euro V hybrid new energy passenger vehicles, which is the first single in the domestic export of new energy vehicles to the Taiwan market. . At the same time, Foton Motor also delivered pure electric sanitation vehicles to three family car units such as Beijing's Xicheng District sanitation department.

On January 11, 2008, with the successful operation of 30 Futianou V hybrid buses in the Guangzhou public transport market, bus companies in many cities across the country have sent olive branches to Foton Motor. For example, in December 2008, Beijing Public Transport Group and Foton Motor signed a purchase agreement for 800 vehicles and chassis for hybrid city buses. This is China's largest purchase order for new energy vehicles so far. This fully proves that the Futian hybrid bus technology has been recognized by the market, and Futian New Energy Automobile has taken a successful step in the industrialization.

In this process, the signing of Guangzhou has an exemplary role. According to Liu Guoqiang, there is also a story: As one of the three major bus groups in China, the Guangzhou Bus has actually been interested in hybrid buses for a long time, but it is concerned about the technical maturity of the car. For this reason, after the launch of the 2006 hybrid bus, we boldly proposed a free trial for a Guangzhou-based bus for half a year (since April 2007, a demonstration run at Guangzhou FAW Bus Co., Ltd. was completed until October 2007). In the past few months, the trial operation of the Guangzhou bus has yielded unexpected results. The fuel consumption of the Foton Euro V hybrid bus has exceeded 30% year-on-year, which not only reduced the single-month operating cost by more than 20%, but also reached the European level. Emissions of IV require that the nitrogen oxides decrease by about 27% and the absorbable particulates by about 19%. In this way, the half-year free trial period of the Guangzhou bus has yet to arrive, and it can't wait to sign a large list of 30 vehicles with Foton Motor.

“Because the Guangzhou Bus chose the Euro V Hybrid Bus, besides trusting its technology and brand in the field of new energy buses, excellent after-sales service is also the most important reason for Guangzhou Bus to trust the European V Bus.” said Guangzhou Xinsui Bus Service Company : “Five-Worry-free” caring service implemented by Futian Euro V Hybrid Bus not only effectively guarantees the quality of the European V hybrid car, but also arranges special service stations to follow up the service and strictly implement the 24-hour service system. Such as Guangzhou bus bus driver to give professional training, driving maintenance and vehicle maintenance and other aspects of the guidance and training; in the event of fault repair, try to make Guangzhou Xinsui bus vehicle technicians to participate in it, to facilitate the mastery of technical points as soon as possible Moreover, the warranty period is extended and vehicle tracking files are established so that it can be repaired in time if a problem occurs in the vehicle.

Not only that, if we move forward again to October 2005, Futianou V used to serve as a health ambassador to return to the “Shenzhou VI” and became the first domestic brand to be adopted in high-end space transportation in recent years.

Industry insiders commented that so far, although many domestic manufacturers have introduced hybrid buses one after another, they are rarely operated on the road because of high product prices and unstable performance. In contrast, although Futianou V started late but has a high starting point, through the well-known universities in the United Nations, independent innovation, integration of global resources, and taking the development path of combining its own brands with international cooperation, it has far ahead of its peers. .

Wide support under policy support

Planned from the “Industrial Revitalization Plan” promulgated at the beginning of the year, by 2011, the number of new energy vehicles based on electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles, and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in China will reach 500,000, and new energy vehicles will take passengers. 5% of total vehicle sales. By May, the State Council decided to use a loan interest subsidy to arrange for 20 billion yuan to support the technical reform of new energy vehicles. In June, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology announced the rules and plans for the purchase of new energy vehicles, including cities in Guangzhou, Shanghai, Chongqing, and Shenzhen.

The recent encouraging news is that the Ministry of Science and Technology will actively cooperate with the relevant departments of the State Council and take effective measures to further increase support for the research and development, demonstration and industrialization of energy-saving and new energy vehicles, and promote the rapid development of energy-saving and new energy vehicles in China. development of. For example, the Ministry of Finance is expected to invest more than 20 billion yuan in the next four years. It will adopt direct financial subsidy measures for consumers who purchase new energy vehicles and support the development of new energy vehicles through taxation policies from production and use to stimulate new energy sources. Car consumption and R&D. It has also taken the lead in the promotion of more than 30,000 energy-saving and new energy vehicles in public areas such as public transportation, rental, public service, municipal administration, and postal service. Wan Gang, Minister of Science and Technology, also stated: “The Ministry of Science and Technology is contemplating to carry out tests on 1,000 energy-saving and new energy vehicles in more than 10 cities in China that are conditional for three consecutive years, and to form a scale market for new energy supply facilities. The number of energy-saving and new energy vehicles in China will reach 10,000 by 2010."

The implementation of these policies is undoubtedly a big plus for car manufacturers including Futianou V. “Futian Euro V has always regarded R&D and application of new energy as the core strategy of the company's development. At present, Foton Motor has been at the forefront of the domestic automotive industry in terms of R&D and promotion of new energy, and with the country supporting the development of new energy vehicles. With the introduction of the policy, new energy vehicles will surely be widely promoted.

In the absence of policy support, Foton Motor had early tastes of new energy vehicles in the market and tasted the sweetness; now it is well prepared to take advantage of national policies and start Fukuda Europe V from government procurement. "Now Futianou V mainly cuts into hybrid and pure electric power, and industrializes it," said Liu Guoqiang. In this respect, Foton Motor undoubtedly reached the front.

Many people believe that 2050 will be the watershed for a comprehensive shift of traditional energy vehicles worldwide to new energy vehicles. However, in the process of developing new energy vehicles, prices, costs, technologies, and risks are several major shadows that companies are lingering. The resulting “marketization” problem is the result.

In response, Liu Guoqiang expressed his deep feelings: "Hybrid power technology is based on petroleum-based internal combustion engine technology. Since technology is popular earlier, depending on the degree of mixing, the price of the product will not be much higher than that of conventional models, and zero fuel consumption will be realized. The cost of a zero-emission hydrogen fuel cell bus is close to 2 million yuan, while the cost of an ordinary bus is only about 200,000 yuan, so it is very difficult for users to accept it. Therefore, we hope that we can give car companies some support with government procurement." Not only that, the improvement of the new energy auto industry chain also requires government intervention to make the auto industry have this manufacturing capability.

However, Liu Guoqiang also believes that the current trend of pursuit of new energy vehicles in the market is obvious, and as the country's supporting policies are further tilted towards new energy buses, the status of Euro V passenger cars in the domestic new energy vehicle sector will be consolidated. Since the development of the automobile industry, whether it is the whole world or China, who can take the initiative in the field of new energy vehicles, who will become the master of the future market.

Fortunately, Foton Euro V buses, the first to enter the field of new energy buses, have become China's fastest-growing enterprises and have received the most orders in the domestic market. He once won the "China Bus Passenger Bus Gold Award", "China Bus Fuel Economy Award", "China's Best Bus Chassis Award", and "worth paying attention to China's bus companies." At the 6th Beijing International Commercial Vehicles & Components Expo, Foton Euro VBJ6102 and BJ6113 hybrid buses won two awards, namely China Road Passenger Car Silver Award and China New Energy Bus. In March 2008, Futian Euro V was awarded the "Top 10 Brands in China's Bus Industry" and "Top 500 Chinese Brands."
