Field research: Why LNG models sell well in Shanxi? It saves 90,000 yuan in economic accounts than a tanker.

The problem of automobile emission has always been a priority blank for environmentalists and environmental management departments. The accelerated upgrade of emission standards in recent years can well prove this point.

Of course, my brother is not here to defend automobile emissions or criticize certain behaviors. After all, the harm of automobile exhaust can not be ignored after a long time.

LNG models: New in Shanxi and other major energy provinces?

With the approach of the sixth national emission standard, problems emerge one after another.

On the one hand, the high purchase cost, high fuel consumption and high maintenance cost of common products of National Six virtually increase the operating cost of card friends, and their "delicate bodies" also affect the attendance rate of vehicles to some extent.

On the other hand, due to the inevitable emission pollution of diesel engines, more and more cities are increasingly restricting trucks from entering the city. For the sake of environmental protection in the production process, many docks and port factories also restrict the entry of diesel vehicles.

Compared with diesel engines, at present, the mainstream LNG vehicles in China do not need to install expensive DPF+SCR, and most of them reach the national six standards through the technical route of equivalent combustion +EGR+ three-way catalysis, which also means that LNG vehicles can reach the national six standards through fewer technical means and lower cost.

Based on these background conditions, LNG vehicles with liquefied natural gas as fuel and simpler technical means began to spread slowly in Shanxi, a major energy province, and even climbed to the position of mainstream engines locally.

Then, for such a small gap market, what solutions have major manufacturers proposed? Look down with my brother.

Industry leaders hand over their answers: liberating J6P? LPG

Old readers should know that my brother went to Shanxi in January, and it was this journey that made me realize the comprehensiveness and reliability of the products that liberated the industry leader.

So today, let's take a look at one of the star products of liberation-Jiefang J6P quality version 2.0? What are the characteristics of LNG vehicles conquering a large number of "old drivers" in the northern region?

Let's look at the appearance first. The front face of the new J6P has not been greatly changed, and it is obvious to see the family-style front face after liberation.

Because wind resistance, wind speed and wind pressure are fully considered in the design of the cab top, a very low wind resistance coefficient can be obtained even without fairing.

○? Numbers, liberation forces, CA6SM3? 440 HP LNG engine

In terms of power, the car is equipped with Jiefang Power 6SM3? 13 liter engine with power range of 420-470 HP; At the speed of 1000~ 1400 rpm, the torque of 2000n·m can be generated, which also makes the vehicle more energetic when facing the mountain working conditions.

How do users evaluate such an engine? Here, I use the original words of Li Jianzhi, a card friend interviewed during my trip to Shanxi, to answer everyone: "Look, it's uphill now, let's cross the bridge directly. In the case of 50 yards, I'll directly add 12 gear, and after painting, I'll get on it, and I'll get on it after 7 or 80 yards. There is no such meat. "

The gearbox adopts its own products. In my opinion, there are two main reasons for this. First, this product has high assembly rate, good economy and transmission efficiency, and good reputation.

Secondly, because of the driving comfort mentioned above, driving the vehicle day after day and shifting gears smoothly can comfort the driver to the greatest extent and reduce the driving risk to a certain extent.

Speaking of driving comfort, my brother would like to add another sentence here. According to the feedback of the interviewed card friends, if the manufacturer adds a little soundproof cotton to the cab, the sales of this model in Shanxi will definitely increase. I hope manufacturers can upgrade in time after seeing it.

The rear axle is equipped with a 435 punching and welding bridge that liberates itself. On the premise of ensuring the bearing capacity, there is also an intermediate differential lock and ASR-driven acceleration slip adjustment, which can effectively prevent the driving wheel from slipping when the vehicle starts and accelerates. Very suitable for icy roads in northern winter.

The post-processing part is not as complicated as ordinary diesel vehicles. LNG vehicles use clean energy-liquefied natural gas as fuel, so there is no need to spend extra money to add urea, and there is almost no need to worry about the problem of substandard emissions.

In addition, it is worth noting that the vehicle has been designed to be light-weight: aluminum alloy gas cylinder frame, light-weight rear cross beam and saddle bottom plate, which makes the vehicle weigh less than 9 tons, much lighter than similar products on the market, and the relative load capacity is much higher.

There is a small oil tank on the side of the vehicle chassis, not for the engine, but for the parking independent heater.

Finally, liberate J6P? LNG is also equipped with a single large gas storage tank with a volume of 1000L, which is lighter than double gas storage tanks, and can also ensure the cruising range of vehicles to the greatest extent and reduce the number of refueling stops, thus improving transportation efficiency.

Of course, no matter how good the configuration is, it is useless if it is not recognized by the market. The following brother will tell you why LNG vehicles are so popular in North China based on the use of a Shanxi LNG fleet interviewed in January.

Truck operation also needs to "teach students in accordance with their aptitude"

Liberate J6P? The LNG model is mainly aimed at the resource transportation market in North China, and Shanxi, as a big energy province, is undoubtedly one of the best "testing grounds" for this model.

As far as my brother knows, there are many fleets engaged in iron ore transportation in Shanxi Province. The main workflow is to pull iron ore and iron concentrate to the steel plant. Then a fleet of 65,438+00-65,438+05 can generate 6-7 million yuan a year, which can be said to be very impressive.

As for why I chose to liberate LNG as the main means of transportation, after my trip to Shanxi, I summarized the following reasons.

LNG models are more comfortable.

As we all know, for short-distance fixed-point transportation tasks, the comfort of the vehicle itself will also be included in the evaluation criteria under the same other conditions. Due to its own structure, LNG vehicles are superior to ordinary fuel vehicles in vibration and noise performance.

Imagine that if the car you drive up and down every day is noisy and vibrates greatly, then your desire to drive it must be decreasing day by day; Similarly, in order to capture the hearts of these transport fleets in Shanxi, it is also very important to improve the driving comfort of the products themselves.

When the model is decided, it is much easier to choose a brand. We can start with the brand's after-sales service, product reliability and failure rate. Of course, there is no doubt that users pay more attention to their subjective trust in big brands when buying a car.

Liquefied natural gas models are more economical.

On this issue, we can simply calculate an account: the fuel consumption of an ordinary six-axle car is about 32 per 100 kilometers. According to the current diesel price of 6 yuan/liter, it takes about 100 km to run 192 yuan; The gas consumption of coaxial LNG vehicles is 33Kg, calculated at 4.55 yuan per kilogram, and the gas consumption per hundred kilometers is about 148.5 yuan.

○? Shanxi local natural gas price

In addition to lower transportation costs, if the body is lighter under the same conditions, users are more likely to choose.

Liberate J6P? The LNG model has an obvious advantage-it is about 500 kilograms lighter than similar models on the market, and this extra load is also saving money for users.

Here, my brother borrows the original words of Master Wang, the leader of this interview trip, so that everyone can feel the liberation? How much cost can LNG models save users: "We have been running for so many years, and the round trip is about 100 km. According to the usual calculation, each trip of LNG can save about 60 yuan, one trip105km,105km, and 300 yuan every day. The whole LNG model can save 90 thousand yuan a year. "

LNG models are more worry-free.

As we all know, ordinary fuel vehicles are most afraid of being patronized by gas users, and they often start to worry about where to rest, while LNG vehicles do not have this problem. With the technical means and social relations of criminals now, it is impossible to handle the transshipment and reselling of natural gas at all.

In addition, due to the characteristics of natural gas, there is no need to worry about frozen oil in the cold winter in the north. Basically, just twist the key and you can drive away.

Liquefied natural gas vehicles are more environmentally friendly.

As we all know, the air quality in a big energy province like Shanxi has been criticized by people, and the driving of ordinary fuel vehicles in these places will also be greatly hindered.

Due to the fuel characteristics, LNG vehicles only emit carbon dioxide and water, and will not emit harmful particles, which is in line with the green environmental protection concept advocated by government departments.

More importantly, the emission standards of LNG vehicles in the market are always higher than those of fuel vehicles in that year. Compared with the emission restrictions in various regions, driving LNG vehicles has more advantages.

Write it at the end

A good truck product must be able to fit the working conditions perfectly, which is also one of the purposes for automobile manufacturers to constantly adjust the vehicle configuration and enhance the user experience.

The reason why LNG vehicles are so popular in northern cities is that on the one hand, the implementation of the most stringent emission standard "National Six" has added fuel to the flames, and the restrictions on road restrictions have forced the entire automobile industry to change; On the other hand, unqualified diesel and spare parts threaten the failure rate and attendance rate of vehicles all the time. Compared with fuel vehicles, LNG vehicle parts are more streamlined and the failure rate is naturally lower.

Imagine that if gas stations can be as common as gas stations, with the improvement of environmental awareness and the support of the state for LNG, it is not impossible for gas vehicles to replace fuel vehicles in the future.
