FAW Fudi's new energy power battery project goes into production, helping Hongqi electric vehicle set new world record

The first phase of the FAW Fudi New Energy Power Battery Project, a joint venture project between China FAW Group Co., Ltd. and BYD Co., Ltd., was officially put into production in the Changchun Automobile Economic and Technological Development Zone recently. The launch of this project marks the establishment of the first new energy vehicle power battery strategic base in Northeast China, which is of great significance.

Since its establishment on January 15, 2022, FAW Fudi New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. has demonstrated strong strength and forward-looking vision in the field of new energy vehicles. The company covers a total area of ​​370,000 square meters, with a construction area of ​​340,000 square meters, and a total investment of 18 billion yuan. The project is planned to be constructed in three phases. The total production capacity is expected to reach 45GWh, with each phase constructing 15GWh. The first batch of products will be installed on new pure electric vehicles of the Hongqi brand, providing consumers with more environmentally friendly and efficient travel options.

It is understood that FAW Fudi has made significant breakthroughs in power battery technology. The company has adopted BYD's most advanced blade battery technology, combined with a module-free, highly integrated innovative design solution, to successfully solve the three major problems of power batteries in terms of safety, endurance and lifespan. This breakthrough has injected strong impetus into the development of new energy vehicles.

According to official data from FAW Hongqi, in January this year, the retail sales of the Hongqi brand reached 40,300 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 82.9%. This data shows that the Hongqi brand has very strong momentum in the market. At the same time, Hongqi also launched two new pure electric models - Hongqi EH7 sedan and Hongqi EHS7 SUV, which were officially unveiled at the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. Both models are positioned as medium and large vehicles, which will further enrich the Hongqi brand's product line. It is worth mentioning that the power batteries used in these two new cars are provided by CATL and FAW.

The model parameters of Hongqi EH7 include body size of 4980/1915/1490mm and wheelbase of 3000mm. This model offers two power options: single motor and dual motor, with a combined power of up to 453kW. The body size of Hongqi EHS7 is 4925/1950/1680mm (the vehicle height is 1665mm when air spring suspension is optional), and it also provides two power options: single motor and dual motor. Both new cars use ternary lithium batteries provided by Times FAW Power Battery Co., Ltd. to provide stable energy support for the vehicles.

In addition, the Hongqi brand’s technical strength in the field of electric vehicles has attracted much attention. In December last year, Hongqi announced that its new autonomous electric vehicle successfully broke the world record for the braking distance of an electric vehicle from 100 kilometers, reaching an astonishing 29.68 meters. This feat fully demonstrates the Hongqi brand’s technical strength and innovation capabilities in the field of new energy vehicles. This achievement attracted widespread attention and proved the Hongqi brand's leadership in electric vehicle technology. Hongqi's technological breakthroughs in the field of electric vehicles have set new benchmarks for the entire industry, while also providing consumers with safer and more reliable travel options. Hongqi brand electric vehicles will continue to promote the development of the entire industry and provide users with a better travel experience.
