· Break through yourself? Gearbox development route car companies have the final say
The debate about the technical path of new energy vehicles has never stopped. When hybrid power and pure electric power have not competed, the fuel cell has begun to show its edge. What kind of driving force is the real life that can help Chinese cars complete the "curve overtaking". The gap between the sword and the sword is difficult to distinguish. However, as another important component of the powertrain, the gearbox presents another picture of the route choice.

Chen Yong, deputy dean of Geely Automobile Research Institute, said that the choice of gearbox, whether it is AMT (mechanical automatic transmission), AT (automatic transmission), CVT (continuous transmission), or DCT (double clutch transmission) It is based on its application in different cars and the strategic decisions made by each company. They often have their own markets and have their own development prospects.
"For Geely cars, our A0-class models use 4AT, and the displacement is slightly larger, such as 1.8L or more. We will use CVT, and then we will use DCT, and larger with 6AT. It also shows that Geely decides which gearbox to use according to its own development stage," Chen Yong said.
“The gearboxes in China are now in a variety of ways, and the flowers are in full bloom.†Fu Xiuqi, general manager of Jifu Power Technology (China) Co., Ltd., believes that it is difficult to say that a gearbox corresponds to a certain market. What kind of gearbox a market chooses is often determined by the company's controllable resources.
"8AT or 9AT should be determined by the company itself. As long as it can meet the direction of energy conservation and emission reduction, the government should adopt corresponding policy support and preferential treatment." Huang Yonghe, chief expert of China Automotive Technology and Research Center, said that the government is formulating policies. In the process, technology neutrality should be adopted, and the development path should be determined by the enterprise itself. “The choice of many gearbox technologies in the Chinese market is mainly based on the fuel consumption or emission policy formulated by the state. The gearbox technology developed by the company should adopt technical support policies as long as it meets the direction of energy conservation and emission reduction, instead of simply supporting or suppressing Some kind of technological development."
Focusing on the transmission test service, Jifu Power is seeing the strong demand in the Chinese market. Company CEO Wolfgang Klaus revealed that JF will add 11 test benches in China and plans to implement 31 test benches in 2015. According to reports, Jifu has about 140 test benches around the world. From the distribution of test benches, one-third of the stands serve Chinese car manufacturers. "We are full of confidence in the development of the Chinese market. In the future, we will invest 15 million Euros in the Chinese market."
