AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)10/23 Report--

When new energy vehicles are becoming more and more popular, a number of incidents of spontaneous combustion of new energy vehicles have occurred, which to a certain extent increased consumers' concerns about buying electric vehicles. In this regard, GAC Wei to the official commitment: if the vehicle caught fire because of the battery, the whole vehicle will pay for it!

Recently, Guang Qi Wei issued a statement: "if the 811 battery of the Ningde era catches fire, the whole vehicle will pay for it!" At the same time, GAC NIO also openly advocated: "all battery car manufacturers in the industry who use Ningde era jointly promise to protect the rights and interests of users!" Compared with the various safety promises made by other car companies, GAC is obviously more sincere.

According to public information, GAC Lai New Energy Automotive Technology Co., Ltd. was established in April 2018 and is jointly owned by GAC GROUP, GAC NE, Lulai Fund, Lulai Automobile and the founding team. Guangzhou Qilai's brand "HYCAN Co-creation" was officially launched in 2019 and has launched only one model-Hechuang 007. At present, its three models are equipped with Ningde-era NCM811 batteries.

Since February this year, domestic electric car fires have occurred all over the country, some of which are equipped with 811 batteries. Including a number of spontaneous combustion accidents occurred in GAC NE Aion S, which was equipped with NCM811 high-nickel ternary battery provided by Ningde era.

It is understood that the 811 battery in Ningde era refers to the collocation of nickel, cobalt, aluminum or nickel, cobalt and manganese in the cathode material according to the proportion of 8:1:1, so that the proportion of nickel is higher, the content of cobalt is further reduced, and the higher the battery energy density is, the higher the proportion of nickel is, the higher the battery energy density is. This is also so that domestic cars use the Ningde era of 811 ternary lithium batteries, the endurance can generally soar, and become the choice of most car companies.

However, the 811 battery not only achieves high energy density and low production cost by increasing the proportion of nickel, but also brings more instability to the battery, while the reduction of the proportion of cobalt also brings challenges to the battery cycle life.

On October 16, Zeng Yuqun, chairman of Ningde Times, once again announced that according to the new national standard of battery and the global technical regulations and standards of the United Nations, the thermal diffusion time of the system should not be less than 5 minutes. The 811 ternary battery system designed and developed in Ningde era can easily pass the thermal diffusion test without fire. Once again, it has attracted the attention of the automobile industry to the "811 ternary battery system".

Judging from the current pain point of new energy vehicle battery, 811 battery is still the choice of the vast majority of car companies, and the risk still exists, and this commitment from GAC can be said to be the first in the industry, and it is also an extra layer of protection for consumers. However, the promise of "full compensation for the whole vehicle" not only shows the manufacturer's trust in the 811 battery of the Ningde era, but also gives the consumer a promise, but also throws the pot to the Ningde era. Even through the Ningde era than the Guangqi Wei to greater popularity, free of charge to rub a hot.

Although Guang Qi Wei Lai has a reputation, it is only a joint venture brand between Guangzhou Automobile and NIO. Sales data show that GAC NIO 007 sold only 562 vehicles in the five months from May to September 2020.
