At the 21st Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition, China Changan Automobile Group, with the theme of “Embrace Innovation and Win-Win Future”, presents 88 products, focusing on displaying innovative technologies in the fields of power transmission, intelligent chassis, thermal management, etc., demonstrating its determination and strength to lead industrial transformation.
Towards new trends: Technological breakthroughs build core competitiveness
China Changan Automobile is accelerating its transformation with the “1255+” technological innovation system as the engine. Its subsidiary, Chenzhi Technology, has released a new generation of intelligent chassis sports integrated solution, integrating EMB full wire control brake, SBW wire control steering, and other technologies, with multiple power combinations and system-level redundancy characteristics, wire control brake response speed increased by 50%, suspension dynamic adjustment range of ±50mm, and many performance leading the world, pushing it from “following” to “leading” in the field of intelligent chassis.
Chongqing Qingshan launches the “GI-Drive2.0” full-domain intelligent electric drive platform, which is equipped with a six-layer technical architecture and integrates 293 domestic and foreign invention patents. The EDS4 distributes electric drive assembly efficiency reaches 96.5%. In conjunction with 4 global first technologies, on-site demonstrations of scenarios such as U-turns on the spot demonstrate the precise control capabilities of distributed drives and redefine the industry’s technological boundaries.
Gathering new trends: Full-chain layout to build an industrial ecosystem
China Changan takes the “3+2+N” business layout as the core and collaborates with multiple brands to build a full industry chain ecosystem:
Powertrain and electric drive: Dong’an Power exhibits a range-extended engine with a thermal efficiency of 46%; Chongqing Qingshan and Huachuan Denso, respectively display an all-in-one electric drive assembly and a range-extended generator to support the implementation of electric drive platform technology.
Intelligent chassis: Chenzhi Technology demonstrates the full-stack capabilities of the wire-controlled chassis. Sichuan Jianan’s third-generation deeply integrates rear axle has become a market highlight with its high precision and high cost performance, with sales increasing by 210% year-on-year in 2024.
Thermal management and electronic appliances: The thermal management module of the Innovation Research Institute can reduce energy consumption by 8%; the Southern Inter heat pump air conditioner realizes multi-domain intelligent temperature control; the Electronic Appliance Division exhibits more than 30 core products for the first time.
Smart Logistics: Changan Minsheng Logistics combines digital platforms with intelligent equipment to realize full-process digital logistics services.
Innovation: Open collaboration drives industry upgrading
China Changan adheres to the concept of “innovation-led, green and low-carbon”, launches the “customization + pre-research collaboration” cooperation model, and carries out technology co-creation with more than 20 OEMs. Digital lean management is introduced on the manufacturing side, the automation rate of key processes reaches 95%, and an industry-leading quality inspection system is established. In terms of sustainable development, a battery recycling system is built, and more than 50,000 tons of waste batteries are recycled cumulatively, promoting the green transformation of the entire industry chain.
In the face of global industrial changes, China Changan takes technological innovation as its foundation and ecological integration as its path, and works with industry chain partners to explore cutting-edge fields, empower industrial upgrading with an open attitude, inject new impetus into the high-quality development of China’s automobile industry, and lead the industry into the future.
