November 11, the global future travel high-level forum opened in Hangzhou International Expo Center. At the meeting, Li Wei, chairman of Wei to the car made the car to the present brought four major negative problems: a waste of time, pollution, traffic accidents, and users Opposition. 'Smart cars + electric vehicles' will bring a completely different future, Wei Lai car production car launched in 2018 will liberate users in the car 50% of the time, 100% liberation by 2025. Completely liberated After the car has become a mobile living space, the use of electric vehicles will certainly exceed the experience of gasoline vehicles.
In the media exchange link, Li Bin introduced the first electric network, Wei to car now has 56 investors, the financing of money will focus on research and development and user experience, more than 3,000 teams have more than 2,000 R & D personnel, Each year will invest 1 billion dollars in research and development.Li Bin believes that the future competition in the automotive industry must rely on service, rely on the user experience to win, Wei to the car will invest a lot of user experience, including next year will invest 2 billion yuan to improve infrastructure .
Wei Wei Li Bin, chairman of the car
The following is Li Bin speech (slightly cut):
Since the invention of a car more than a hundred years ago, it has quickly become the most influential product in mankind history. Consumer goods, why is it so important? Because it can liberate our restrictions on space and speed, but the development of the car to Nowadays, more and more negative things are brought in. Looking forward to the future, we still have to see what problems exist in the present. If we want to analyze clearly, we will know the future direction.
The first big issue is wasting time because nothing can be done after the traffic jams, and the world is blocked by 130 billion minutes a day, equivalent to more than 90 million people being handcuffed to the car for a full day by the steering wheel Very large waste of life, but also a very large waste of productivity.
The second problem is that pollution, pollution not only affects the health of people, but also affect the mental health.Congestion is the same, congestion will affect our psychology, people will become more and more anxious, in fact, the psychological impact Is bigger.
The third problem is traffic accidents, which kill 1.2 million people each year and have already far surpassed the number of deaths caused by the plague and the war today. It is not the cars that auto companies produce that are unsafe. The main problem is driving people or Pedestrian behavior on the road is not safe enough, leading to these accidents.
The fourth problem is the opposite of the user.Because today's automotive industry chain division of labor is formed 100 years ago, no one negative overall responsibility for user experience, the most efficient way is to allow insurance companies to do insurance companies, so cheer Station to do the gas station thing, so 4S shop dry 4S shop thing, the car company just made the car out to everyone, open high-end brand or low-end brand user experience is no different. If you go to Jingdong today Things, you have to go to the bank transfer, you have to get the package, if something is broken you have to repair things in Hangzhou repair things, who will use today's electricity supplier? But this is the automotive industry issues, segmentation. I think it is still everyone's dream to own a car because he can give you a more intimate space and can guarantee your travel needs. The auto industry need not worry about getting rid of it. I am the chairman of the company, So I have this say.
'Smart car + electric car' These two things put together how in the end can bring us a different car's future? I would like to simplify it, called Smart EV, I do not think there are other technical routes Just like Smart Phone, we are Smart EV. Today, in another 10 years, we will discuss hydrogen fuel cells. Discussing nothing else, that is, Smart EV, will bring about a completely different future.
We will solve these problems. First, congestion can not be effectively solved because congestion is determined by the supply of roads, the number of vehicles, and the amount of traffic, but it will free you from the car. Autopilot can not solve traffic congestion , Will only ease, in the short term may also increase the congestion, but the time was liberated, traffic jam was no way in the past, the hands of the steering wheel more and more anxious. Later is to buy a car to send drivers, and every minute in the Evolution, so it is time to liberate your car.I am willing to use a ratio to see the degree of liberation, from a technical point of view, in our production car in 2018, in the typical application of the Chinese city , We have been able to liberate 50% of the time, that is more than 50% of the time car safety is better than you open to 2025, the technical ability to achieve 100% liberation, the liberation of the car into a mobile Living space.
The second problem to be solved is to be more friendly to the environment. This friendship is multifaceted, and I think EVs will definitely replace gasoline vehicles, in fact, the user experience will be better than the cars. If each has a charging pile, users no longer need Going to the gas station, which is a good feeling.Nowadays, China can not do every household has a charging pile, so we need innovative solutions, Wei to the car in the past few years has done a lot of innovation, we have a few Hundred patents are committed to solve this problem, of course, there is a very large investment, Wei to cars next year in this area will probably invest 2 billion yuan to improve the user experience. Do not ignore the mobile Internet, the logic behind the Mobile Internet, the car, Service staff all connected, it will be a very efficient use of energy experience.
Third, smart electric vehicles will be safer.Electric vehicles will replace the core reason for gasoline cars is that it is more suitable for automatic driving, because the electric car to respond faster, from giving it instructions to the combustion of gasoline vehicles, work, and then the average output of 400- 500 milliseconds, but the electric car 30 milliseconds, responsible for driving autopilot but also with decision-making, analysis, perception of time, but also add one or two hundred milliseconds, so the electric car reaction fast, can do likeness, it is natural And the car will evolve over time, create new cycles, collect data, reach the cloud, learn better through deep learning, analyze capabilities, and remotely upgrade to the car, creating a loop that iterates over time The more smart electric vehicles, the more autopilot vehicles, the better intelligence, just like the AlphaGo iteration speed, which is much faster than mechanical iteration and safer.
The fourth, more friendly to people.We look at the AI technology, the most important thing is to make the car will become an intelligent partner, the car will become temperature, understand you, all the infrastructure will be connected, let You really can do a one-touch solution to all problems, an APP to solve all problems, even without response to solve the problem.We say the infrastructure is completely laid out on the mobile Internet infrastructure, so the entire infrastructure to be refactored, This is a smart electric car with the original car than all the different future.
We believe that smart electric vehicles will bring us a new future, of course, we not only imagine, we want to turn it into action, just as we WeiLai car LOGO, we have more than 3,000 people in the world R & D And marketing staff from more than 40 countries, we have the support of the top tech companies, we have the global investment capability, our support from top Chinese investors, and we have created us in more than two years Own history, Wei to EP9 is the world's fastest electric car, creating the fastest electric car record of many well-known track, 0-200km / h acceleration 7.1 seconds. Welcome to continue to support.
