Chinanews.com, February 18th (China News Finance reporter Xie Yiguan) Guangzhou's auto production is expected to exceed 3.1 million in 2022. If calculated according to the national annual output of 27 million vehicles predicted by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, every 9 vehicles produced nationwide , there is one from Guangzhou.

  As the largest industry in Guangzhou, the automobile industry also plays an important role in Guangzhou's high-quality development.

In recent years, the transformation of the automobile industry has brought new development opportunities for Guangzhou's automobile manufacturing industry, and Guangzhou is moving towards a trillion-level "smart car city".

  "In GAC Aian, an electric car can be rolled off the production line in an average of 60 seconds, and it can also realize the customized production of cars in the mobile phone 'remote control' factory." The relevant person in charge of the company said.

  In April 2017, the GAC Zhilian New Energy Vehicle Industrial Park with a total investment of 45 billion yuan started construction in Panyu Automobile City, anchoring the direction of new energy and intelligent network connection. GAC took the lead in separating new energy vehicles from the traditional fuel vehicle field develop.

  After years of hard work, GAC Aian has not only become a leading global new energy vehicle company, but under its leadership, the Panyu auto industry chain has formed more than 40 auto parts and related projects, and basically established a "three electric" complete intelligent Networked new energy vehicle industry chain.

  It is reported that in 2023, Guangzhou will focus on promoting the development of chain clusters of strategic emerging industries, and vigorously implement projects such as "strong core", "bright screen", "integrated network" and "smart cars", and arrange more than 800 industrial projects throughout the year.

  As the "chain master" enterprise of Guangzhou's new energy vehicle industry chain, Xiao Yong, deputy general manager of GAC Aian, said, "Next, we must look at the world, seize the new opportunities for the development of the 'dual cycle', and participate in the important phase of the world's automobile industry pattern. We are very confident in China's new energy vehicles."

Explore low-altitude travel, let the "flying car" shine from dream to reality

  Have you ever seen a flying car?

There is such a "car" parked downstairs in Xiaopeng Huitian.

  After more than 3,000 test flights, the Luhang X2 self-developed by Xiaopeng Huitian has recently officially obtained the chartered flight certificate issued by the Central and South Regional Administration of Civil Aviation of China, becoming the first in China to apply for and successfully Approved manned eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing) product.

  When the Voyager X2 slowly took off, the "flying car" that once appeared in science fiction movies turned from a dream into reality.

  Flying cars, as an exploration direction for the transformation of travel methods, have also received attention from all parties in recent years.

  For example, the "Outline of Mid- and Long-term Development Plan for Scientific and Technological Innovation in the Transportation Field (2021-2035)" issued by the Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Science and Technology mentions the deployment of research and development of new delivery vehicles, including the deployment of flying car research and development, breakthroughs in the integration of aircraft and cars, Free switching between flight and ground driving and other technologies.

  With the strong support of the policy, the Traveler X2 has now been granted a chartered flight certificate. From the perspective of the industry, this also means that the development of flying cars will be accelerated, and the industry will continue to move towards maturity, which will have a huge impact on the development of the entire industry and the industry. driving effect.

  However, as a brand new species, flying cars still need a long period of development and iteration.

  Qiu Mingquan, General Manager of Xiaopeng Huitian Brand Marketing, said that the company's current flying car products are still mainly land-based cars.

In the future, as the flight time and mileage of flying cars continue to increase, flying scenarios will increase rapidly.

It can be applied in low-altitude travel fields such as future urban air traffic, tourism, emergency rescue, and air patrol, contributing to urban three-dimensional traffic.
