There will also be a flagship model, the “Dragon Flagship†(Dongfeng Commercial Vehicle D760 Project) as its supporter. .
During the Shanghai Auto Show, Dongfeng Commercial Vehicle was also the “Queen of the topic.†The topic of the joint venture between Dongfeng and Volvo and the positioning of Dongfeng’s future strategic products was even more remarkable.
Joint venture process or completion in the second half
On January 26 this year, Dongfeng Group and Volvo Group held a strategic cooperation alliance signing ceremony.
After a lapse of three months, is the Sino-foreign joint negotiation process still on track?
Huang Gang, general manager of Dongfeng Commercial Vehicle Company, told reporters that the work is still proceeding at the established pace. "Our internal (related to joint venture) preparations have been carried out in an orderly manner. External work mainly includes two aspects: First, the EU's anti-monopoly review is expected to be completed in May; second is the Chinese government's approval." Huang Gang said. Judging from the current progress, the joint venture company is expected to be established and officially launched in the second half of the year.
“Because this year is a new term for the leadership of the government, the approval time for the joint venture project will be delayed from what was originally expected.†Huang Gang said frankly, “The previous plans of the joint venture parties were to fight for the listing on July 1 this year. In view of the establishment, it is not realistic on July 1, and the joint venture company is likely to be established between July 1 and the end of the year. This depends mainly on the progress of the government approval."
Once the joint venture company begins operations, the foreign party will soon move in and participate in the research and development of Dongfeng Heavy Trucks and Engine's existing products and future products. "Moreover, the joint venture agreement clarifies the need to introduce Volvo transmissions. After the establishment of the joint venture company, it is estimated that it will soon be introduced, resulting in the matching of Volvo's 14-speed transmission and Dongfeng's 14-speed transmission." Dongfeng Commercial Vehicle Technology Center Center chief Jiang Ming revealed.
Tianlong’s flagship launches in the second quarter of next year
This year's Shanghai Auto Show, Tianlong Ultimate Edition with a new shape, new configuration, new positioning, impressive.
It is understood that Tianlong flagship equipped with Dongfeng Cummins ISZ13480 horsepower four engine and ZF12 block AMT mechanical automatic transmission, is Dongfeng commercial vehicle independent research and development of the next generation of strategic products. Huang Gang told the first commercial vehicle network reporter, "Tianlong flagship" positioning efficient long-distance transport vehicles, will be put into production in the second quarter of next year. “This high-end heavy truck is the benchmark for international standards, and it also targets the domestic and overseas markets. It represents the development trend of Dongfeng’s future products. To ensure high quality, we have parts systems such as engine, transmission and brake systems. At the same time, they have conducted extensive and in-depth cooperation with excellent international suppliers."
"This car is based on the success of the Tianlong D310 heavy truck market. Dongfeng commercial vehicle is exploring how to compete with the world's most advanced vehicles and benchmarking. Its benchmark in design is the high-end imported cars such as Man and Mercedes." Ming said, “At the same time, because many domestic suppliers do not meet the brand positioning and feature pursuing of high-end vehicles, we also have to adopt a large number of foreign suppliers to develop comprehensive cooperation and systematic matching development with them. Future and Volvo After the group's joint venture, we will work with foreign companies to develop some special technologies on the Tianlong flagship."
“As we all know, the brand positioning of Chinese truck manufacturers is lower than that of Chinese domestic brands in China. We hope that this Tianlong flagship brand positioning can reach or even surpass Japanese cars.†Jiang Xuefeng, deputy director of Dongfeng Commercial Vehicle Technical Center, added further: "From the pursuit of the characteristics of commodities, we hope that Tianlong's flagship will completely exceed the characteristics of Japanese cars in terms of the characteristics of the goods after it is put on the market, and it must achieve the level of European cars in the characteristics of some commodities."
According to him, Tianlong’s flagship D760 project has adopted a new development method. “For example, Tianlong's cab development method is a joint development between China and Japan based on the Nissan Diesel G105 cab. And Tianlong’s flagship cab development, Although it has taken joint development with domestic and foreign design companies, the body structure design, surface design, and subsequent process manufacturing are developed by Dongfeng itself, which means that the core technology is in our own hands."
It seems that by the next year, Tianlong’s flagship may be the most promising new product in the heavy truck market.
