In this slow breathing should be advertised their low carbon society, electric vehicles have no doubt become the darling of the media. But in fact, there is no enterprise can realize the industrial production of electric vehicles. If we can not do the "zero fuel", we can try to "low fuel" car?
Advantages of innovation
When it comes to the automobile industry's independent innovation and energy saving, but also really have a lot of people in the automotive parts of the brain - Beijing Shuo Ke love can Technology Co., Ltd., general manager Liu Cheng. This is a 26 year old young entrepreneurial passion one aimed at the automobile shock absorber parts on this small business.
"After repeated experiments proved that this technology can make a large passenger cars a year to save on fuel costs 14256 yuan, heavy trucks to save 12960 yuan, medium-sized passenger car to save 10800 yuan, saving 336 yuan of commercial vehicle." Chinese entrepreneurs in the Tsinghua University training camp enterprise promotion, Liu Cheng in the introduction of their own research and development of ShockEner technology, said with confidence.
Looks like a good thing. Automobile shock absorber assumes a production of 100 buses all use ShockEner, a year can save money about 1400000. Thrown to the cost of words, profit margins are also about 1100000.
According to Liu Cheng's introduction, they this car shock absorber for the target consumer group is heavy trucks and large and medium buses. First of all, we must return to the original question: one of the most fuel-efficient cars can use the shock absorber plate market how much?
Market prospects
According to the reporter, in recent years, the domestic market share of the heavy truck is mainly concentrated in the 5 companies, namely Chinese sinotruk (quotes, information, reviews), China FAW, Dongfeng Automobile (600006) Shaanqi and futian. Data show that from 2005 to 2008, China's heavy truck sales increased from 235 thousand to 540 thousand, the market capacity increased by 129.1%.
Large and medium-sized passenger cars, according to Chinese automobile industry association had statistical data on the 97 bus companies submitted to analysis, July 2010, large passenger car sales 5882, a decline of 14.82%, an increase of 47.01%; medium sized passenger car sales 5777, a decline of 9.95%, an increase of 4.62%.
However, another big market cake, no knife and fork in vain. The scale of the market demand, the Liu Cheng team has his own secret sorrow.
Go to the crab.
The Liu Cheng team a total of 4 doctoral, 3 master, graduated from Peking University and Beijing University of Aeronautics and astronautics. Team members are generally young, have the ability to research and development, but the lack of market operation experience. In case of shortage of funds, to further demonstrate improved fuel economy performance and automobile shock absorber is very difficult. Team members can only use the resources of students, and occasionally to use the school's laboratory to complete the further improvement of research and development projects.
After twists and turns, the team has been with the Shanxi Universiade card signed a letter of intent preliminary. Initial financing 5 million, for the industrialization of the production of products.
In fact, as early as 2007, the team developed the ShockEner has been patent protection, but the delay can not find investors.
In an interview with reporters, "Xiaokang Caizhi", well-known industry experts, China Social Sciences Institute of Industrial Economics Industrial Development Director Zhao Ying said, in contrast, the financing is relatively easy, relatively cautious China venture. The invention of automobile shock absorber on the entire automobile industry seems not too large, the parts are not standard. Furthermore, there are spread between economic interests and manufacturing cost saving brought enough to attract enterprises, patent industrialization needs for a long time will affect the market prospect of the product.
Experts point of view is slightly conservative, business to the technology is more interested in it? The "Xiaokang Caizhi" reporter also interviewed Shandong Masson Polytron Technologies Inc chairman Zhang Lei, who specializes in the production of auto parts enterprises Mister said, "there is very supportive of the independent innovation of energy saving and environmental protection technology, as long as it can bring benefits and profits to the enterprise, no matter how much is good."
