When talking about China's automobile industry, we have to mention Yuzhou.

At this time, Yuzhou had a reputation as the automobile city of China. Motta Motors, the largest automobile manufacturer in China, was located in Yuzhou.

In addition to automobiles, there is also the motorcycle industry in Yuzhou, not to mention, Mota motorcycles are sold all over the world.

In the domestic market, Mota ranks first in motorcycle market share, with annual sales exceeding 10 million.

It is also the only domestic brand with annual motorcycle sales exceeding 10 million.

The domestic market share is extremely high, reaching more than 60%.

The output of Mota motorcycles exceeded 10 million in 1993, and about 70% of them were exported at that time.

During the Asian economic crisis, motorcycle exports were hit, especially the Southeast Asian market.

Fortunately, we have made some positive adjustments, such as exploring countries that have not been affected by the economic crisis.

For example, Annan Market.

The most important point is the domestic market.

At this time, in terms of per capita GDP, we definitely still have a big gap with developed countries, but some consumption has already formed a certain ability.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation!

This is something people definitely need.

With some savings in hand, there is a need to solve the problem of convenient travel.

More and more people are buying motorcycles.

In addition to motorcycles, there is another means of transportation that is emerging.

Battery car!

That's right, it's a battery car.

For Mota Motorcycles, the development of battery vehicles is also a necessary measure to respond to market needs.

Some cities in China feel that motorcycles pollute a lot, and the large number of motorcycles aggravates traffic congestion in the city, so they prohibit motorcycles from entering certain areas.

Since motorcycles are prohibited, then battery-powered scooters are not allowed. This is not on the prohibited list.

Technically, it wasn't really difficult, and it was done very quickly.

The price is not too expensive, just over 3,000 yuan.

When electric scooters first came on the market, the price was just this much.

The technical requirements for battery vehicles are really not high, and some small manufacturers will soon follow suit.

However, the Mota brand of battery scooters is still the best in sales. One is the guarantee of quality, and the other is the after-sales service.

The after-sales service of Mota electric scooters is the same as that of motorcycles.

Sales are also together.

The maintenance of battery vehicles is much simpler than the maintenance of motorcycles. It can be done with a simple understanding.

Chen Huaiqing came to Mota Automobile, naturally, not for the electric cars. He came to see the electric cars.

A car powered by electricity!

Motta Motors has been conducting research and development on new energy vehicles for a long time.

Among them, hydrogen vehicles are naturally a research and development focus.

In fact, it is not difficult to develop hydrogen as a fuel.

Yes, there is no reason why it is difficult.

For example, natural gas vehicle engines and hydrogen vehicle engines are all developed at Mota Power.

And it has achieved a lot of achievements.

In essence, they are all internal combustion engines.

It's just that traditional engines burn gasoline and diesel, while new energy engines burn natural gas and hydrogen.

In the previous life, the engines of natural gas-burning cars were generally modified from direct fuel engines, and the power would be reduced by 10%-20%.

Now, Mota Power has specially developed a gas engine.

Compared with gas engines and fuel engines, the engine service life is much improved.

Mainly due to engine wear.

"This gas engine is specially developed for family cars, with a horsepower of 120 horsepower. Compared with a fuel engine with the same horsepower, it is definitely much more economical. It can probably provide car owners with

Compared with fuel vehicles, it saves half the money."

Since 2003, global oil prices have skyrocketed.

In September 2004, oil prices broke through $40 and headed towards $50.

Of course, the rise in oil prices has a lot to do with global oil demand.

At this time, the global economy is in a period of rapid growth. In 2003, global GDP increased by 12.13%. This year, judging from the performance of the first half of the year, the global economy is still quite good.

Economic growth requires the consumption of resources, of which energy, namely oil, is naturally the first to bear the brunt.

The rise in oil prices is not a direct takeoff, but an upward trend.

"In addition to saving money for car owners, gas vehicles are better than fuel vehicles in terms of environmental protection."

Twenty years later, the direct pollution emissions of fuel vehicles will be able to reach very low levels.

The exhaust gas is directly oxidized and reduced by the three-way catalytic converter and then discharged into the air.

What is emitted is carbon dioxide, water and nitrogen.

Carbon dioxide, water and nitrogen are not considered pollutants. The air itself contains carbon dioxide and a large amount of nitrogen.

As for water, it goes without saying.

There is also a lot of water vapor in the air.

Theoretically, it seems that after some treatment of car exhaust, the pollution is indeed solved.

Of course, this was only 2004, and automobile exhaust emission standards were not as stringent as they would be twenty years later.

Gas vehicles can still be promoted in the name of environmental protection.

It is environmentally friendly and saves money, so it seems that it is not so difficult for car owners to make a choice.

Of course, for some car owners, they actually don’t care much about the money saved.

Oil prices are high now, and gas prices are actually not cheap either.

In this way, one of the attractions of gas vehicles is greatly reduced.

Another thing is that gas vehicles must have a gas cylinder. For many people, its safety is also a concern.

In terms of safety, it must be done well.

In fact, in addition to car accidents, fuel vehicles pose a safety threat, and spontaneous combustion of vehicles also often occurs.

Don't think that only electric vehicles can spontaneously ignite, fuel vehicles are the same.

Of course, the cause of spontaneous combustion is mainly due to problems with the wiring.

Especially at high temperatures.

In addition to the gas engines used in family cars, there are also gas engines used in trucks.

Six-cylinder in-line engine with maximum horsepower of 430.

For use on a tractor, such horsepower is still sufficient.

For truck drivers, there has always been a very troublesome thing, and that is fuel consumption.

Once you get to the parking lot to rest, you have to guard against these people.

The fuel tank of the truck is large. If the fuel is stolen, the loss will be considerable.

If you have a gas vehicle, you don’t have to worry about this.

Chen Huaiqing pinched his chin. Gas vehicles are indeed very good in terms of environmental protection.

"Are there any difficulties in the development of gas vehicles now?"

Electric vehicles are not yet available. It should be said that there are still many limitations in the current technological development of electric vehicles and they are not yet mature.

Mainly in the battery area.

Today's electric vehicles have a completely inadequate cruising range. If they have a cruising range of more than 100 kilometers, what can they do?
