100 Assistance Program Recently, China's own brand cars made another attack in the 2023 winter driving test, showing extraordinary performance. In particular, BYD's two new electric vehicles, Yangwang U8 and Denza N7, have made significant progress in overcoming the difficulties caused by harsh weather environments with the help of powerful intelligent driving technology. This test not only tested the active safety performance of the vehicle, but also provided valuable experience for the development of intelligent assisted driving.
In the icy winter of the Northeast region, the 2023 winter driving test kicked off. The competition is called "Night Snow ACC Orienteering Race", which aims to test the power, handling, safety and other aspects of the car's performance under extreme conditions. In the test site, the organizers deliberately set up stationary cars as obstacles to simulate the unexpected situations that the cars may encounter during driving. It is worth noting that since this test was conducted on snow, this undoubtedly increased the risk of the event;Coupled with the dark night and flying snowflakes given by the snowy environment, the test process was extremely difficult.
According to the test results, a total of 51 models participated in the competition, including Huawei's Wenjie M5 and Wenjie M7, as well as many models of domestic independent brands. After fierce competition, a total of 17 models successfully passed the first link. In the subsequent difficult second stage test, only five models successfully advanced to the third stage. The much-talked-about Tesla Modely not only failed to break through the first two levels, but even lost to the other players in the second part of the competition.
However, when the difficulty of the competition was raised to the first challenge, which included backlighting and snowfalling, the "Flying Snow Backlit Spot Orienteering Fake Vehicle Recognition Competition", the scene at the test site changed dramatically. In such an environment, the participating cars faced great challenges and were forced to reduce their speeds to 40 km/h. Surprisingly, despite the difficulties and obstacles, some vehicles still managed to cross the line with extraordinary performance, including BYD's two brand-new models, the Yangwang U8 and Denza N7.
In recent years, many new energy manufacturers have invested a lot of resources and energy in the field of unmanned driving, and have launched corresponding models. Previously, consumers generally believed that only new power cars oriented to intelligent technology could be comfortable in this race, but today's reality reveals too one-sided ideas. In this duel, BYD's performance was amazing, exceeding the expectations of the public.
Take the Yangwang U8 and Denza N7 as examples, which consistently performed consistently throughout the test. Among them, Yangwang U8 is known for its long-range recognition and timely braking measures, and finally achieved a deceleration and finish with an excellent score of about 12 meters, far ahead of other competitors. Such a performance undoubtedly left a deep impression on people. However, on the contrary, the strength of BYD's intelligent driving system in the public's mind is often underestimated, which is also a problem worth pondering.
According to people familiar with the matter, BYD's current R&D status shows that its technology R&D team has grown to more than 90,000 members, and the number of teams specializing in intelligent research has exceeded 2,000 people, which can be called one of the enterprises with the richest talent reserves in this field of domestic car companies.
The performance of the DENZA N7 has already shown its excellent performance with high-speed NOA function. In a variety of challenges, the DENZA N7 is able to cope with a duck in water, including complex roads, magic interchanges and various normal life scenarios, demonstrating its dexterity and intelligent driving experience. It is said that in the future, the high-speed NOA application of DENZA N7 will be gradually popularized to the public. Therefore, the industry has more expectations, hoping that in the near future, BYD can bring people more peculiar surprises in the field of unmanned driving.
Conclusion: In this winter driving test, BYD's superior performance in harsh weather conditions with its advanced intelligent driving technology strongly proves that domestic auto brands have made solid efforts in technological innovation and quality control. In the future, it is believed that consumers will be full of confidence in the innovation and cutting-edge technology of China's own brands.
