AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)06/10 Report--
He Xiaopeng, CEO of Xiaopeng car, posted a video of Xiaopeng's flying car on Weibo on June 9, showing the flying car at a speed of 5m/s and an altitude of 20m. He Xiaopeng said that many people do not believe that flying cars can be made. In order to finally convince them, there is only one way to really make them and see them with their own eyes. Please give us a few more years.
In addition, it also pointed out that one of the challenges in making great innovation is that professionals are required to use professional processes, professional tools, professional division of labor to make things high-quality, systematic and market-oriented, but most of these people's previous training was trained and grown up in mature markets with mature technologies and mature products. They are pragmatic, and they have seen a lot of difficulties and failures. So I think some things are logically too difficult or impossible. At the same time, we need another kind of person, good to say is to have feelings and dreams, to say bad is to dare to think boldly and not afraid to die, to promote investment to persist in trial and error. How to couple such two different groups of people together is a great difficulty in such innovation. In previous successful cases, those who are bold and the core dare to say that they dare to obtain resources may be successful, but now they also need to understand technology, market and management, and they have to be more daring.
According to official data, Xiaopeng flying car body, the use of carbon fiber single shell body, the use of aviation aluminum, magnesium alloy and special glass, and the use of high energy density, high discharge rate power battery, high power density electric drive, and through the mechanical structure integrated design to reduce weight, compared with the Xiaopeng P7 weight loss of nearly 50%.
As for he Xiaopeng's dream of flying, it began to plan as early as 2020. In 2020, Xiaopeng established a flying automobile company, Guangzhou Huitian Aerospace Technology Co., Ltd. In September 2020, Xiaopeng Motor Traveler T1 flying car was unveiled at the Beijing Auto Show. It is understood that this flying car can fly at an ultra-low altitude of 5-25 meters and can be used by 2 people to achieve intelligent interaction and low-altitude map navigation at a price equivalent to that of a luxury car. "I believe that one day flying cars will be born and we will be able to travel more freely in the low altitude of the city," he Xiaopeng said. " In addition, it also said: the current smart car is not a real smart car, but a primary form. A small number of cars will fly into the sky after 2024 and occupy the sky on a larger scale in 2030. One day flying cars will be born and we will be able to travel more freely in the low altitude of the city.
When he Xiaopeng participated in the CCTV "meet Big Bigs" program last year, he Xiaopeng also said publicly that flying cars could be built by the end of 2021, and China's ultra-low-altitude or low-altitude areas will be open to civilian use in the next few years. Xiaopeng is making a coupling product of flight and car. This kind of flying car is the same size as an ordinary car and can take off and land vertically in a parking space. Many people think it is impossible. Xiaopeng has been exploring the field of flying cars for seven years and has conducted tens of thousands of safe manned flight tests. This is a brand-new field, there is no plan that can be used for reference, we also feel the stones to cross the river, through many detours. So far, Xiaopeng has released and unveiled a number of flying cars, such as Voyager T1, Voyager X2, and the sixth generation of flying. According to officials, the sixth generation of flying cars will have two different driving modes, divided into land state and flight state. It has all the functions of a car and can also support flight. With regard to this flying car, Xiaopeng aims to achieve mass production by 2024 and keep its price within 1 million yuan.
But to get to the point, compared with traditional cars, flying cars are much more difficult to develop, which is one of the major reasons why flying cars are not commercially available at present. Maybe one day, the scene of cars in sci-fi movies is expected to be realized in reality, but for now, there are still many problems in the field of flying cars. After all, at present, the use of drones still need to be declared in advance. In addition, for Xiaopeng's flying cars, some industry insiders pointed out: flying cars are difficult to achieve commercialization, it is impossible to replace cars on a large scale, and the market prospect is very limited.
