Hannover Commercial Vehicle and Parts Exhibition (IAA 2022) opened. As an internationally renowned Weichai, it is bound to not miss this show.

Weichai, which has sufficient reserves in the fields of traditional power and new energy, once again demonstrated its strong independent research and development capabilities to the world.

What did Weichai bring?

On the whole, the exhibits brought by Weichai can be divided into three modules: one is the engine, the other is the powertrain, and the third is the new energy power.

For the engine part, Weichai WP2H, WP5H, WP8H, WP10H and WP15H are all on display. There is no doubt about the excellence of Weichai H platform, which is comparable to the world's advanced level in terms of power, fuel consumption and reliability. It is worth mentioning that WP2H, WP5H, WP8H and WP10H (dual booster) are all displayed for the first time, and it is also the first time that they have unveiled their "mysterious veil" on the international stage.

At the powertrain level, Weichai's WP13H commercial vehicle powertrain with a thermal efficiency of 51.09% is really eye-catching. At the Hannover Motor Show, the highest show of cutting-edge commercial vehicle technology, Weichai "brought up the face" for domestic commercial vehicle powertrains.

In terms of new energy power, Weichai brought four exhibits this time. One is the 260kW hydrogen fuel cell engine, the second is the Weichai WP15 hydrogen engine, the third is the pure electric integrated axle drive system, and the fourth is the hybrid powertrain.

Multi-energy technology reserves show the king's style

There is no doubt that Weichai will showcase its advanced technologies and products to the world at the Hannover Motor Show. Traditional power and new energy power are integrated vertically and horizontally, and the posture of multi-route layout makes Weichai's future road bound to be more stable and practical.

Weichai's strength in traditional power needs not to be said. Weichai has matching fuel engines for trucks of any load class, especially in the medium and heavy field. Weichai has been the first choice for card lovers for many years. It is the distinctive label of Weichai Engine. It should be known that the application scenarios corresponding to Weichai WP2H, WP5H, WP8H and WP10H are pickup SUVs, special power for trucks and buses, special power for construction vehicles and tractors, while Weichai WP15H is a domestic high-horsepower diesel engine. Star products, all aspects of performance have been completely comparable to European and American engine brands.

The reporter learned that due to the epidemic in 2020, Weichai's world's first commercial diesel engine with a thermal efficiency of 50.23% was not exhibited at the Hannover Commercial Vehicle Show that year, which is a big regret. On January 8, 2022, Weichai Power released the world's first diesel engine with a thermal efficiency of 51.09% in Jinan, breaking its own world record. At this year's Hannover Motor Show, Weichai unveiled the WP13H with a thermal efficiency of 51.09%. How good can commercial vehicle power be? Weichai gave the answer.

In terms of new energy power, Weichai has displayed a wealth of content this time. From 15L hydrogen engine to 260kW hydrogen fuel cell high-power engine, to pure electric integrated axle drive system and hybrid powertrain, Weichai has obviously completed the product reserve of various new energy technology routes, many of which have excellent performance. reached the world level.

For example, Weichai's 260kW hydrogen fuel cell engine ranks among the top in the world in terms of power and power density.

For another example, the pure electric integrated bridge drive system displayed by Weichai this time is matched with a five-in-one integrated controller, and the integration of the controller is increased by 20%. The technical high point of light truck drive system.

In this regard, relevant Weichai technicians said in an interview: "The development direction of the drive system of new energy light trucks is high efficiency, integration and lightweight; Integration, the integration of auxiliary machine controller, PDU and main drive controller, combined with mid-mounted battery to create a dedicated chassis for pure electric light trucks, this will be another upgrade of new energy commercial vehicles."
