In vehicle development, the overall layout plays a pivotal role from the very beginning, overseeing the entire model development project. During the project, it is responsible for coordinating the simultaneous work of various technical sections, leading the resolution of technical “issues” between these sections. The overall layout ensures optimal spatial configuration of components to enhance vehicle performance and user experience.
Firstly, Yiwei Auto determines the vehicle’s overall layout based on the type of vehicle, market demand, and technical objectives. This includes the layout of the body structure, power system, and operating systems.
Secondly, vehicle layout engineers use design software such as CAD (Computer-Aided Design) and CATIA to create precise 3D models, simulating the vehicle’s performance under different conditions. Advanced technologies like Finite Element Analysis (FEA) are employed to optimize the body structure for strength, rigidity, and crash safety, ensuring the vehicle is both lightweight and sturdy, with excellent stability and safety.
For pure electric vehicles, the layout of the power system is particularly crucial. Yiwei Auto meticulously plans the positions of key components such as the battery pack, motor, and energy management system to minimize transmission losses and improve energy conversion efficiency, thereby extending the vehicle’s range.
The overall vehicle layout work is akin to a complex symphony, requiring coordination of various technical sections such as the body, chassis, powertrain, and electronics. This ensures the rational spatial configuration of components, meeting functional requirements while balancing aesthetics and cost, and enhancing the vehicle’s reliability and maintainability.
After completing the layout design, Yiwei Auto conducts multiple rounds of rigorous testing and validation, including both simulation and real-world tests. Simulation tests use advanced software to model vehicle performance under various conditions, predicting potential issues and resolving them in advance. Real-world tests validate the scientific and practical aspects of the design through actual driving and trials.
Data collected during testing is crucial for subsequent design optimization. Yiwei Auto analyzes and evaluates the results to identify deficiencies and areas for improvement, continuously iterating and refining the design to enhance overall vehicle performance and user experience.
In summary, Yiwei Auto’s approach to vehicle layout involves comprehensive consideration of multiple factors. Through meticulous design and optimization strategies, the company aims to continually improve vehicle performance and competitiveness. Yiwei Auto places significant emphasis on testing, ensuring product quality and performance through real-world tests under various conditions, including extreme temperatures, high altitudes, and high-speed roads.
