On December 22, 2023, the annual closing event of the TEDA Automobile Forum, the Annual Voice of China Automotive Industry Development (TEDA) International Forum, was successfully held in Tianjin. Focusing on the annual theme of "reshaping", leaders of industry institutions, senior executives of automobile companies, and industry experts summarized the industrial development in 2023, judged the future transformation trend of the automobile industry, and provided think tank support for the high-quality development of the automobile industry. As a representative of automobile enterprises, You Zheng, deputy general manager of Dongfeng Motor Group (hereinafter referred to as Dongfeng Motor) and member of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee, made a speech on "Correctly Grasping the "Double Carbon" Goal, Firmly Promoting New Energy Transformation, and Contributing to Green and Low-carbon Development", sharing the new trend of automobile industry transformation and the new practice of Dongfeng Motor's new energy transformation and development.

You Zheng, deputy general manager of Dongfeng Motor and member of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee, delivered a keynote speech.

At present, the evolution of major changes unseen in a century is accelerating, and accelerating the green and low-carbon transformation has become a global consensus. China's automobile production and sales will rank first in the world for 15 consecutive years.

1. The passenger car market will exceed 20 million for 9 consecutive years, and the number of cars will exceed 3300 million vehicles to promote green and low-carbon development is a "must-answer question" that the automotive industry must think about and answer.

You Zheng said that in the face of arduous challenges such as the safety and controllability of the industrial chain, the research of key core technologies, the renewal and upgrading of production capacity, and the collaborative carbon reduction of upstream and downstream and cross-fields, automobile companies should accurately grasp the development law of the industry and the actual situation of the enterprise itself, "progress" and "stability" complement each other, achieve gradual development in dynamic balance, constantly consolidate the foundation of "stability", consolidate the advantages of changing lanes, and continue to stimulate "progress" with scientific and technological innovation and ecological co-construction to achieve effective quantitative growth and effective qualitative improvement, and take a stable, green, low-carbon and high-quality development path.

To achieve the "double carbon" goal, scientific and technological innovation is the key. Dongfeng Motor deeply implements the scientific and technological leap action and the new energy "leaping project", improves the R&D system, enhances innovation capabilities, promotes new industrialization and industrial renewal and upgrading, accelerates the transformation and upgrading of digital, intelligent and low-carbon, accelerates the construction of new quality productivity, cultivates and releases new development momentum, and wins the initiative for future development with productivity leap.

In the field of core technologies, Dongfeng has accelerated the research of forward-looking technologies, breakthrough technologies and key "stuck neck" technologies, adhered to the technical route of super hybrid (PHREV), pure electric and hydrogen energy simultaneously, and has realized the independent control of "three horizontal and three vertical" key technologies and core resources, striving to be the leader of the modern industrial chain in the fields of new materials and integrated die-casting, laying a solid technical foundation for green and low-carbon development. At present, Dongfeng has created three platforms in the field of passenger cars: M Tech Mengshi luxury electric off-road architecture, Dongfeng quantum intelligent electric modular architecture, and DSMA multi-energy low-carbon and energy-saving modular architecture. In terms of powertrain, Dongfeng has built the "Mach" power brand covering energy-saving, hybrid and pure electric in the field of passenger cars, achieving a number of industry firsts. In addition, in the field of hydrogen energy, Dongfeng also has the "Dongfeng Hydrogen Boat" brand, as well as two sub-brands of hydrogen element and hydrogen core, with a power covering 20-350kw, which can meet the needs of a full range of passenger cars and commercial vehicles.

In order to realize the renewal and upgrading of production capacity and promote the coordinated carbon reduction of the whole value chain, Dongfeng has built a green and intelligent benchmark factory. At present, VOYAH and Dongfeng Yunfeng factories have been rated as national intelligent manufacturing demonstration factories, and Mengshi factories will become world-class intelligent manufacturing, green and zero-carbon benchmark factories, and reduce energy consumption in the manufacturing process by more than 30% through digital empowerment, process innovation and energy utilization. At the same time, Dongfeng has accelerated the promotion of green power application and built a photovoltaic green industrial park, and the first phase of the photovoltaic power generation project has been put into operation, which is also the largest distributed photovoltaic project in Wuhan at present, with an annual power generation of 20 million kWh and a reduction of CO2 emissions of 11,620 tons per year. In addition, Dongfeng Motor is accelerating the construction of a green and low-carbon circular chain and production and marketing system through new business formats such as R&D collaboration, green access and evaluation, green logistics, resource recycling and clean energy use, and creating a new ecology of green and low-carbon development.

In recent years, Dongfeng Motor has accelerated the implementation of the "Three-Year Action for Transformation and Upgrading" around the mission of high-quality development, and expanded to brand, product and value based on the achievements of scientific and technological leap. In order to strengthen and optimize Dongfeng's independent business and promote the development of energy-saving and new energy vehicles based on fuel vehicles, 21 independent new energy passenger car models and 17 new energy commercial vehicle basic models will be launched one after another. In 2024, 100% of the new models of Dongfeng's main brand of independent passenger cars will be electrifiedIn 2025, the company will sell 1 million new energy vehicles.

VOYAH has achieved a product layout of "three categories in three years".

Dongfeng has built a "Mengshi" luxury, "VOYANT" high-end, "Dongfeng" mainstream new energy brand pattern, which has won the recognition of more and more consumers, showing a momentum of momentum. As a high-end smart electric brand, VOYAH has achieved a "three-year-three-category" product layout, and the overall sales volume has shown a steady upward trend, with a year-on-year increase of 129% year-on-year from January to November this year, achieving six consecutive sales increases, and will sprint to a new level of 10,000 units per month in December. As a luxury electric off-road brand under Dongfeng, Mengshi 917, the first product, has been delivered, bringing a new experience to off-road enthusiasts with hard-core technology and subversive innovation. In addition, Dongfeng Motor implements the group's integrated management of the three major product series brands of Dongfeng Fengshen, E and Dongfeng Nano under the "Dongfeng" brand, and integrates the efforts of the whole company to develop the new energy business of independent passenger cars.

Focusing on the requirements of the "double carbon" goal and promoting the new development of the automobile industry with scientific and technological leaps, You Zheng proposed: "Dongfeng will firmly promote green and low-carbon development, accelerate the scientific and technological leap and new energy transformation, release new momentum for reform, seize the new highland of science and technology, build new advantages for development, win the new track of transformation, promote energy conservation and carbon reduction in the whole life cycle of automobiles and the whole industrial chain, and strive to contribute to the 'double carbon' goal and the construction of an automobile power." ”
