Will the dieselization of automotive products be an inevitable trend?


As domestic gasoline prices continue to rise, and the country repeatedly emphasizes the policy of “energy conservation and emission reduction”, various auto manufacturers have made R&D and mass production of new energy and diesel vehicles one of the core strategies for the future. At the international auto show in recent years, various new energy concept cars and diesel vehicles have appeared on the spot frequently.

Cui Zhongzhi, vice president and general manager of Huatai Automobile Group, expressed his confidence in diesel vehicles. He believes that diesel vehicles still have obvious advantages in the competition between diesel vehicles and new energy vehicles. “Accurately speaking, new energy vehicles refer to a wide range of vehicles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as a source of power, including hybrid electric vehicles, pure electric vehicles, fuel cell electric vehicles, and other new energy vehicles such as hydrogen-powered vehicles. Due to the high R&D cost of new energy vehicles, the cost of new energy vehicles will be tens of thousands of dollars or even several hundred thousand dollars more than the same class of cars, so it is difficult to popularize them in the short term. , with obvious advantages of low fuel consumption and low emissions."

“In fact, diesel vehicles have already been popularized in the developed markets. Statistics from abroad show that in 2005, 100% of heavy vehicles and 90% of light vehicles sold in Europe and the United States were all powered by diesel. Diesel cars accounted for the annual production of European cars. 40%, in France, Spain and other countries up to 50% or more." Cui Zhongzhi said.

Cui Zhongzhi said that over the years, Huatai Automobile has adhered to the road of energy saving and environmental protection technology research and development. Diesel power represents an advanced and practical approach to energy conservation and environmental protection for automobiles. It is an inevitable trend for market development and the only way to achieve sustainable development of reducing energy consumption and maintaining the living environment. In terms of product planning, Huatai Automobile has mastered the world's most advanced high-pressure common-rail diesel direct-injection CRDi diesel engine technology, through the precise control of the solenoid valve, direct injection of ultra-high pressure fuel into the cylinder, so that diesel atomization is more thorough, burning Fuller, it can save 30%~40% of fuel consumption compared to gasoline vehicles of the same displacement and take the lead in meeting Euro IV emission standards. As of the end of October, diesel models accounted for 65% of Huatai's total sales. In order to extend the advantages of Huatai Automotive in the field of diesel vehicle technology and advance the dieselization process of China's automobile industry, Huatai Automobile and Italian VM Co. Ltd. jointly developed four diesel engines for clean cars of 1.5L, 2.0L, 2.5L, and 2.8L. Coming soon. At present, preparations for production have been basically completed. It is estimated that by the end of 2008, it will reach an annual production capacity of 450,000 units, and by 2012 it will have a capacity of 1 million units.

According to the latest data, the number of civilian vehicles in China is 31.6 million, of which private cars are 18.52 million, accounting for 58.6% of the total. The rise in fuel prices will not completely reverse the trend of cars entering the family, but will only impose higher requirements on the fuel economy of automotive products. When consumers purchase cars, they will certainly pay more attention to and favor fuel-efficient automotive products. Fuel economy is the biggest advantage of diesel vehicles. “Industry is recognized that diesel vehicles can save 30% to 40% of fuel compared to gasoline engines with the same power,” said Cui Zhongzhi.

Statistics show that Europe is the region with the highest degree of dieselization of cars. The penetration of diesel cars in many countries exceeds 50%. In 2006, one in every two new cars in Europe was a diesel car. Among them, the growth rate of diesel vehicles in Western Europe has been the fastest in recent years, and its share has increased at a rate of 4 percentage points per year. Diesel vehicles have a market share of over 67% in France and Belgium, and nearly 90% in Austria. Cui Zhongzhi believes that the popularity of diesel vehicles in Europe benefits from the government's policy promotion and environmental awareness among European consumers. Energy conservation and environmental protection are two major advantages of diesel vehicles. Therefore, there is a strong sense for European consumers with higher awareness of environmental protection. Attractive.

Cui Zhongzhi said that whether it is from the practice of foreign developed markets or the status quo of domestic diesel vehicles, the dieselization of automotive products will be an inevitable trend. At present, domestic diesel car products are mostly concentrated in the commercial vehicle sector, but more and more car manufacturers are launching diesel car products, including Audi A62.5TDI, Passat 1.9TDI and so on. Some mainstream car manufacturers are pushing for diesel cars, indicating that they have a consensus on the dieselization trend of cars.
