In the era of new energy, where will the traditional internal combustion engine companies go?
According to Lin Tiejian, director of the Engineering Research Institute of Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Co., Ltd., the word “seriously” is enough to help Yuchai achieve its role as a leader in the field of traditional internal combustion engines and a leader in the new energy industry.
Traditional and New Energy Dynamics Develop in Parallel
From April 25th to May 4th, the Beijing International Automobile Exhibition held every two years as scheduled, Yuchai brings its four models including diesel, gas engine, hybrid and pure electric motors to the exhibition area. Showcasing multiple solutions for companies to respond to future emissions upgrades.
In recent years, the bias of public opinion has led many people to place traditional and new energy power in opposition. Obviously, this is not correct. At least for a certain period of time, traditional power and new energy power will also be used in different application scenarios. Embodies their respective values.
Therefore, Lin Tiejian repeatedly emphasized that traditional power and new energy power are not on the balance, and Yuchai chose to develop in parallel.
Perhaps a great success in the domestic internal combustion engine area has masked the fruitful achievements Yuchai has made in the field of new energy. Until now, people have positioned themselves to remain at the level of traditional internal combustion engine manufacturing. As everyone knows, professional power drives a better life, and Yuchai is in the mouth. The 'professional power' includes both traditional power and new energy power.

In fact, as early as many years ago, Yuchai started to develop and produce hybrid and pure electric products. In addition, when the new energy policy subsidizes the decline, the technology reserves of the next-generation hybrid system and pure electric system are realized. The continuous upgrading of traditional power has made stringent demands on product performance, fuel consumption, emissions, size, weight, etc. Only with the help of the new generation of electrification technology can we achieve further reduction of energy consumption and emissions.
'The new energy system is not just a matter of material accumulation, but it requires a correct understanding of the application scenarios of each component, and it will gradually optimize and improve at the levels of cost, miniaturization, and intensiveness. These efforts will never be imagined by the outside world. It's that simple.' Lin Tiejian said.
Technology deposition and market infrastructure to help advance
According to the data released by the China Automobile Association, Yuchai successfully defended its diesel engine sales championship in March. The momentum is strong. Lin Tijian is very light on this. He pointed out that from a development perspective, it should not be just 'obsessed' with sales data. Instead, we must focus on the future, actively research and develop, and prepare for the next stage of product and market layout.
The reporter learned that in the face of fierce market competition and stringent emission requirements, Yuchai was the first to release several S6 products of S, K and Y three technology platforms earlier this year, with a displacement of 2L~15L. Covering 100-650 horsepower, it has improved significantly in terms of comfort, economy, environmental protection, reliability, etc., and has achieved strategic cooperation with Dongfeng, Yutong and other car companies.
Lin Tiejian said that Yuchai is expected to complete the calibration and development of several major S6 products during the year and will launch small batches in the market next year to lay the foundation for the implementation of SVI-6 in 2020. At the same time, the company will also fully deploy the next generation of hybrids. Power system and fuel cell system, it is expected that there will be a new series of products released later this year.
When asked about the advantages of traditional power production companies in the deployment of next-generation energy systems, Lin Tiejian bluntly stated that Yuchai has extensive experience in large-scale production of mechanical parts, strict control of production quality, complete construction of sales and service teams, and a solid foundation. The market foundation.
'The foundations accumulated over the years can help Yuchai to better research and develop, produce new energy systems, and serve the development of new energy markets.' Lin Tiejian added, 'Yuchai is not afraid of any market competition, relying on its own technology, strength, to create Product quality, cost-effective quality products, will certainly be able to attract the attention of the market and users.
