The first prototype of the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV for short) developed independently by the Chinese independent automotive design company IAT has been successfully completed in trial production. The prototype is successfully installed with IAT PHEV powertrain, which can realize three driving modes: parallel, series and pure electric, and it can also perform full-time four-wheel drive.
The three core components of IAT PHEV powertrain include front power coupling device, rear drive reducer and vehicle control unit, all of which were developed independently by hundreds of IAT experts for more than two years.
The successful trial production of the PHEV prototype marks the completion of the first phase of the PHEV development, which will be followed by further optimization of the PHEV system functions and component performance and the test & validation will be completed as well. In addition, IAT has invested hundreds of millions yuan in the establishment of the Chengdu IAT PHEV manufacture and R&D base. The construction has already been commenced.
The PHEV project is an important milestone in IAT's diversification process. The company transforms its positioning from complete vehicle design to complete vehicle design plus high-end parts design and manufacture. In the future, IAT will implement diversified ecological strategy which keeps vehicle design, high-end components, high-end customization and modification, and new energy vehicle design in parallel.
