Shenlong Speeds Up Dongfeng Liuzhou's "Self-production" Three Engines


Most of Dongfeng Liuzhou’s passenger car engines come from Mitsubishi. With the continuous expansion of the passenger vehicle business, self-produced engines have become a trend. The reporter recently learned that the new engine plant of Dongfeng Liuzhou Automobile will be laid on the 9th of next month and will produce three 1.6L, 1.8L, and 2.0L engines. The technology of these engines comes from the Dongfeng Group's Dragon Motors and will be carried on Its Lingzhi, King Plaza SUV and King Plaza S50 three series models.

On June 6, Liu Weidong, deputy general manager of the passenger vehicle business of Dongfeng Automobile and Tong Dongcheng, the commercial vehicle operator, attended the kick-off meeting of the engine project in Liuzhou. On July 9th, Dongfeng Liuzhou Automobile will celebrate its 60th anniversary. As the Dongfeng Group’s “gift” to Dongfeng Liuzhou Auto, the engine plant will officially start construction.

Dongfeng Liuqi really can afford this gift. In 2013, the sales of Dongfeng Liuzhou Automobile Co., Ltd. reached 223,000 units, an increase of 33% year-on-year, setting a record high for the company's annual production and sales. Among them, Dongfeng Liuzhou Automobile's popular series of models exceeded 180,000 units in 2013, an increase of 32% year-on-year, which is three times the average increase in the auto market. From January to May this year, Dongfeng’s cumulative sales volume has exceeded 100,000 units, reaching 101,818 units, an increase of 30.5% year-on-year, ranking sixth in China’s own brand area.

Self-made "core"

In foreign countries, the core components such as automobile engines are basically produced by the automakers themselves. In China, many automakers rely on procurement joint ventures, wholly-owned companies, and imports because of insufficient funds and insufficient technology. In China, a market with higher profits, the Mitsubishi engine has become relatively monopolized. In the past, Liuzhou, one of the independent brands, also used Mitsubishi engine. After 2007, Liuzhou Automobile changed its “China Core” and started to use SAIC's ROVER engine.

However, with the rapid development of the entire vehicle industry, mature engine technology can guarantee the production and sales of automobile companies. More and more independent brands have begun to join the ranks of independent research and development engines. Dongfeng Liuzhou Automobile is no exception, focusing on "self-produced" engines.

Made "core" technology from Dragon Group
<br> <br> master core "core" technology equal right to speak, Liu steam engine to be self-produced engines will improve the situation in the foreign procurement subject, but also greatly increase the cost. Dongfeng Group expressed its support for the growing development of Liuzhou Automobile and will introduce Shenlong Group's technology to allow Liuzhou Automobile to produce its own 1.6L, 1.8L and 2.0L engines. These three engines are actually imported from the National Cheng Chi Citroen Group.

These three engines are naturally aspirated engines and have been widely used in new Elysees, Peugeot 301, Citroen C4L, Peugeot 3008 and other models, technology has been relatively mature. "Naturally aspirated engines are still very marketable, and most Japanese cars still use naturally aspirated engines," said Dongfeng Liu Automobile's relevant person in charge of China Netcom.

Shenlong Company is one of the first batch of three passenger car manufacturing and manufacturing industrial bases planned and constructed according to economic scale. It has modern automobile production and manufacturing bases in Wuhan and Fuyang and has complete research and development testing capabilities, strong strength, and independent research and development. Technology center for independent innovation.

Among them, Shenlong Company's Leiyang Plant is a production base for powertrains such as engines, transmissions, and axles. It currently has an annual production capacity of one million engines and 540,000 transmissions. Liu Automobile will "self-produced" three engine technologies derived from - Shenlong 1.6LCVVT technology engine, 1.8LCVVT technology engine, with high efficiency, economic, environmental protection and excellent performance.

It is estimated that Dongfeng Liu Auto's self-produced 1.6L, 1.8L and 2.0L “Self-core” will be carried in its three major series of vehicles in the future, including Lingzhi, Jingyi Sedan, and Jingyi SUV. In addition, popular CM7 will not be equipped with its own production engine because it uses 2.4L and 2.0T engines.

With the “self-produced core”, apart from providing guarantees, it will also gain more profits. The development of Dongfeng Liuzhou will be even more powerful.
