On January 10, Leapmotor held a high-profile global self-development open day in Hangzhou, showing its LEAP3 to the world in a unique "open class" waySix core technologies of intelligent electric vehicles under the 0 technology platform.
These include the advanced four-leaf clover** integrated electrical and electronic architecture, the innovative new energy ** power hub (combined with CTC battery and oil-cooled electric drive system), the intelligent cockpit equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 chip, the intelligent driving system suitable for urban and highway conditions, and the global vehicle architecture.
Zhu Jiangming, founder, chairman and CEO of Leapmotor, emphasized that the value of technology lies in its application in actual vehicles, which can bring practical benefits to users. In other words, these technologies are all groundible. Leap3The six core technologies of the 0 platform have all entered the mass production stage, ensuring that consumers can immediately experience the convenience brought by these technologies.
Specifically, the electronic and electrical architecture is the support for the intelligence and networking of the vehicle, and the integrated electronic and electrical architecture is the foundation of the software-defined vehicle and determines the upper limit of the intelligent performance of the vehicle. Leapmotor's "four-leaf clover"** integrated electronic and electrical architecture, with a SoC chip to create the best supercomputer, integrates the cockpit domain, intelligent driving domain, power domain, and body domain, realizes the efficient collaboration of the core components of intelligent electric vehicles, and brings intelligent electric vehicles into the era of software-defined vehicles.
Following the release of the world's first mass-produced battery-pack-free CTC battery-chassis integration technology in April 2022, the CTC20 technology, the innovative use of no battery pack, no module technology, the battery and the chassis are more extremely integrated, so that the battery has safer, more durable and more intelligent characteristics. ctc2.0 technology has an industry-leading battery structure and the industry's original "zero voltage" technology, with 720min non-thermal diffusion technology, which can give full play to the 400V fast charging capacity.
In terms of intelligent driving, Leapmotor has also launched a self-developed intelligent driving system, which aims to provide users with a safe and convenient driving experience. The system is equipped with 30 high-performance perception elements and high-computing power modules, which support urban NAC (urban navigation assistance control without opening the city) and high-speed NAP (navigation assisted driving) full-scene experience, and has the potential to upgrade to Level 3 autonomous driving functions.
At the same time, for the first time, the industry's single-chip cabin driving and parking trinity integration system was launched, and the functional integration of cockpit control, intelligent driving and automatic parking was realized through an 8295 chip. This design not only simplifies the system structure, but also feeds back intelligent driving data to the driver in real time to improve the driving experience.
In addition, it pioneered NAC (Adaptive Cruise Control) navigation-assisted cruise technology. In the absence of a high-precision map, the system can recognize information such as traffic lights, zebra crossings, lane markings, and obstacles through multi-modal perception and big data models, and automatically adjust vehicle speed. The driver does not need to pedal during the entire driving process, and only needs to control the steering wheel to complete operations such as going straight, turning and making a U-turn. In this regard, Zhu Jiangming said that the intelligent driving mode of full-time ACC is the best intelligent driving solution at the current stage, and at the meeting, Leapmotor also announced its LEAP3Pre-orders for the C10, the first global model under the 0 platform, began. A total of two power models were launched, and the pre-sale range of the extended range version was 15180,000-18180,000 yuan, and the pre-sale range of the pure electric version is 15580,000-18580,000 yuan.
The Leapmotor C10 continues the "dual power" strategy of the C series, providing dual options for pure electric and extended range. Among them, the maximum battery capacity of the pure electric version is 699kWh, CLTC range up to 530km; The maximum battery capacity of the extended-range version is 28With 4kWh, CLTC has a pure electric range of up to 210km and a CLTC comprehensive range of up to 1190km.
Through 8 years of technology accumulation, Leapmotor has completed the transformation from leap 10 to leap30 upgrades and iterations of technical architecture. The application of these technologies has made Leapmotor comprehensively improve its safety, endurance, and performance. Leap3The 0 platform transforms cutting-edge technology into practical technology.
In the past 2023, Leapmotor has delivered a total of 144,155 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 297%, and the monthly delivery volume in December reached 18,618 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 119%, a record high, which made Leapmotor rank among the top three new car brands.
Automobile Network Review: In 2024, the annual sales target of Leap is expected to be 20-300,000 units, referring to the amount completed last year, and the launch of the new model C10 is estimated to be no problem for the completion of the target of 200,000 units. With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle market, we will wait and see what results Leapmotor will achieve this year by relying on its self-developed technical strength and product strength.
