22 August 2012
www.chinabuses.org:Recently, Xiamen Golden Dragon hybrid bus XML6125JHEV38C won "technical innovation" and "best commercial vehicle of the year" in the 3rd China energy-saving and new energy bus innovation contest. The core theme of this contest focuses on independent brand innovations and developments. In the bus industry, the new energy bus have become the key trend, therefore the competitions within bus industry have entered a new era of new energy developments.12 bus manufacturing enterprises with 16 new energy buy have attended this contest. After the intense competition of road performance and running test, Golden Dragon hybrid bus won the first prize with good control performance and low energy consumption. The result represented the strength of Golden Dragon Hybrid Bus in the field of independent development, independent innovative technology.
16 new energy buses in accordance with different horsepower were divided into three categories, respectively is the hybrid, pure electric vehicles and electric plus vehicles. Hybrid bus competition starts from Hangzhou Stone Bridge, covers a total of 12.3KM, the normal city bus running environment have been simulated in this competition. Buses have to call at 16 different stops one after one. Evaluation of the quality of competition models, in addition to control performance, the most important is the standard of fuel consumption. After nearly a day of fierce competition, Golden Dragon hybrid bus XML6125JHEV38C with excellent performance was highly recognized. According to the result of Organizing Committee: hybrid group schedule 135.3km, vehicle load 4 tons, air-conditioning temperature 28 degrees, ensure the competition vehicle fuel consumption of 100 kilometers test is more accurate and effective. Golden Dragon hybrid bus fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is 26.93L. In comparison to the hybrid buses average fuel consumption of 100 kilometers 30.52L levels, Golden Dragon hybrid bus represented an outstanding performance. The competition encountered a rainy weather condition, Golden Dragon XML6125JHEV38C showed the excellent performance of braking and acceleration, full zero faults throughout the whole competition, fully demonstrated the brand strength of independent development in the GHS-IV system.
According to Lin Yibei, New Energy Project Director of Xiamen Golden Dragon Technology Center, Golden Dragon is developing the new generation of GHS-V system, it will be launched in the market maybe in this year. At the same time, Golden Dragon continuously invests in the vehicle safety, reliability and software, become truly customer solution experts. At present, Golden Dragon offers three solutions to satisfy various needs of customers: i) the pure super capacitor energy storage + driving motor direct drive scheme for city road without climbs and congestions. The super capacitor is characterized by safety, high efficiency, and long life. ii) a super capacitance coupling lithium battery combined energy storage + driving motor direct driving scheme. iii) the pure super capacitor energy storage + motor + automatic transmission scheme. Scheme ii and iii are suitable for the road condition of large slope, elevated, jams and traffic. In terms of super capacitor combined mode of application, is the unique technology of Golden Dragon which catches up the advance world level. The independent core technology can reduce production cost, shorten the delivery cycle, easy maintenance, customer service and software upgrade.
Reportedly, Golden Dragon is the first bus builder to realize hybrid bulk sales and marketing operation in China. Early in 2002, Golden Dragon started its new energy bus project and set up research and development team, and launched the first hybrid bus in the domestic hybrid city bus market in 2006. Golden Dragon hybrid had experienced the test of domestic market, successfully achieved in marketing operation scale. Moreover, hybrid buses had enjoyed highest national subsidies. Products cover from 7-12 meters with plug-in hybrid, pure electric, natural gas and other types of energy saving program, reach an annual output of 5000 units, rank No.1 in the non-protection area. Products have successfully entered the market of Kunming, Tianjin, Hangzhou, Xiamen, Haikou and Finland Turku. Golden Dragon Hybrid Bus not only represents the advanced technology, but also leads the bus industry into a mature technology route.
2012 is a critical year for China's new energy automobile development, along with the "energy saving and new energy automobile industry development plan (2012-2020)" come on stage, new energy bus will become the main force in our domestic bus industry. According to some experts, hybrid technology maturity will largely determine the product promotion and popularity of feasibility, hybrid bus is the rational choice.
