It takes ten years to sharpen a sword.  Innovation“Blade”Aim at the industry“Mount Everest”

At the Weichai Power 2024 Business Conference,Covering commercial vehicle power、Power of agricultural equipment、Power of construction machinery、Energy and electricity、Ship Power、New energy power and other full scenes、Hundreds of engine products of the whole series were presented.。Weichai announced 18 2024 models covering multiple market segments.。In here,In addition to conventional diesel engines,,And natural gas engines、Hydrogen fuel cell engine、Power Battery、Light truck hybrid power assembly and other green low-carbon multi-energy power products。

A series of new products fully demonstrate Weichai's“Traditional energy+New Energy”Reserve and strength on the double track。

Scientific and technological innovation is the essence of Weichai。Over the years,Weichai is well versed in innovation and empowerment,Unswervingly play the card of scientific and technological innovation,Constantly shape new competitive advantages in the market。Tightly grasp the high level of science and technology, self-reliance and self-improvement“Bullnose”,Dare to show the sword and climb the peak bravely,Promoting high-quality development through scientific and technological innovation,Accumulate new kinetic energy in the new journey、Win the new track。

For more than 20 years,Weichai's annual compound growth rate reached 29 percent%,The same frequency resonance with Weichai's scientific research hard core strength。

At the same time,Weichai continues to work hard on research and development,In the past 10 years, the total R & D investment in the engine sector has exceeded 30 billion yuan.。Engine R & D investment accounted for 8%,Basic research accounts for more than 20% of R & D expenditures%。

Sustained R & D investment,Big moves are constant.——Invest 11 billion yuan to build Weichai Power Central Research Institute,Building the Future Technology Research Institute、Engine Research Institute、Large Bore Engine Research Institute、Electronic Control and Software Research Institute、Craftsman Research Institute、New Energy Research Institute、Hydraulic Transmission Research Institute、Artificial Intelligence Research Institute、Product Test Center“Eight courtyards and one center”R & D layout,Formed“Independent innovation+Open and innovative+Craftsman innovation+Innovation in basic research”Four-in-one scientific and technological innovation system,Gathering Weichai's powerful technological innovation force。

Ingenuity concept with scientific management  Erect the quality benchmark

In the past 2023,,The natural gas heavy truck market in the northwest market is extremely hot.,Among them, there are many Weichai products.。

“The product quality of Sinotruk is very good.,Carry WeichaiWP15NGThe engine has strong power,It is also very gas-saving,100 km solar term 4-Five kilos。”Engage inLNGLi Zhanning, general manager of Ningxia Dening Transportation Co., Ltd., said.,At present, the company has more than 20 HOWO heavy trucks with Weichai natural gas engines.,ConfiguredS-AMTThe gearbox is also very convenient.,The driving comfort of the vehicle is greatly improved.。

Wu Xueping, founder of Ningxia Juheng Logistics, also said.,His company was founded in 1999.,Mainly engaged in Xinjiang to Ningxia、Coal transportation business in Inner Mongolia。At present, the company has more than 20 Shaanxi Auto Delong heavy trucks.,All equipped with Weichai Gold Power Assembly。

“The altitude drop along the transportation route is large.,The weather conditions are harsh,The temperature difference between day and night is large,And there are few people along the way.,Vehicles and drivers are facing many challenges.,So when I buy a car, I prefer Weichai engine.。”Wu Xueping said,His company has a car with a mileage of more than 2.22 million kilometers.,“The car is still driving efficiently on the road transporting coal.”。
