On the evening of August 27th, Tucki M03 was officially launched on "Xpeng Motors 10th Anniversary Hot Love Night". The new car was launched in three configurations, namely, 515 long battery life version, 620 long battery life version and 580 long battery life MAX version. The official guide price range was 119,800 yuan to 155,800 yuan. The price of Tucki M03 is not high, but its configuration is not cheap. According to official news, the number of new cars has exceeded 10,000 in 52 minutes. Then, what is the specific product strength of this car? Let’s learn more about it together.

The overall appearance of Tucki M03 presents a young and fashionable style design, which adopts a closed front face and is equipped with a T-shaped integrated light group, and the front enclosure is equipped with an AGS active air intake grille, which can effectively reduce the wind resistance. The headlights come standard with automatic headlights, adaptive low and high beams and delayed turn-off.

The new car has a length, width and height of 4780x1896x1445mm and a wheelbase of 2815. It is a compact car. The overall lines on the side of the car body are smooth, with a hatchback body design and a hidden door handle. The new car comes standard with 18-inch aluminum alloy wheels, and 19-inch sports wheels and Michelin tires are available for optional installation. The D-pillar position of the vehicle also has an air deflector. The rear part adopts a T-shaped split taillight similar to the headlight style, and a "duckling tail" is designed on the trunk cover. The whole car adopts a lot of aerodynamic optimization design, which can effectively reduce the wind resistance, and the wind resistance coefficient of the new car is only 0.194.

In the interior part, the whole new car adopts minimalist design, the leather steering wheel adopts double-spoke D-shaped structure design, and there is a wheel button on each side of the steering wheel, which is matched with an electronic gear shifting mechanism. The new car needs optional LCD instrument panel, and does not provide HUD head-up display function, only equipped with a 15.6-inch floating central control panel. The car has built-in Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155P on-board intelligent chip, which provides functions such as front and rear partition speech recognition control system, GPS navigation, facial recognition, 4G network, gesture control, OTA upgrade and so on.

The new car seat is made of imitation leather, which supports the standard 6-way electric adjustment of the driver’s seat and 4-way electric adjustment of the co-driver’s seat, and the whole system comes standard with the seat welcoming function. The long battery life version also provides seat ventilation and heating and main driving memory functions.

In addition, Tucki M03 also comes standard with functions such as wireless charging panel of mobile phone, built-in driving recorder, etc., and provides PSS advanced customized speaker sound system with 18 speakers, and 7.1.4-channel surround sound arrangement with sky channel is optional.

In terms of power, the new car provides two different specifications of single motor drive. The maximum power and torque of the motor on the 515 long-life version are 140kW, 225N·m, the matching capacity is 51.8kWh, and the CLTC pure electric cruising range is 515km；. The 620 long battery life version and the 580 long battery life MAX version are equipped with a motor with a maximum power of 160kW and a maximum torque of 250N·m, both of which have a matching capacity of 62.2kWh. Due to the slight differences in configuration, the CLTC pure electric cruising range of these two versions is 620km and 580km respectively.

In terms of intelligent driving, Tucki M03 has L2-level intelligent driving assistance capability. The 515 long battery life version and 620 long battery life version models with low mid-range are equipped with XPILOT assisted driving operating system, equipped with 2 millimeter-wave radars, 12 ultrasonic radars and 9 cameras inside and outside the car, supporting adaptive cruising, lane keeping and intelligent parking in full scene. The top-of-the-line 580-long-endurance MAX model is equipped with XNGP driver-assisted operating system, built-in NVIDIA DRIVE Orin intelligent driver-assisted chip, 3 millimeter-wave radars and 12 ultrasonic radars, and has 12 cameras inside and outside the car. In addition to the basic intelligent driving assistance function, it also supports high-speed/city full-scene NGP navigation assistance, parking, intelligent outbound and other functions.

The entry-level 515 has a long battery life, pushing the price to 119,800. Obviously, it has a fight with the price killer BYD, and the configuration is relatively complete and the cost performance is high. 620 long battery life version, the power and battery capacity have been improved, and the front seat has been heated and ventilated, as well as the ambient light in the car, which is 10,000 yuan more expensive. I feel that everything except power and battery is given, and the cost performance is still outstanding. If I am not interested in smart driving, I highly recommend buying this one. The 580 long battery life MAX has the same power as the long battery life version, but the battery life is less. Three millimeter-wave radars, ORIN-X chips and XNPG system are added to the configuration, which mainly improves the intelligent driving ability, and friends who often run long distances can consider it.

On the whole, the design, dynamic performance and intelligent configuration of Tucki M03 are remarkable. The configuration of Tucki M03 is relatively perfect, and the battery life is also long, and the overall cost performance is relatively high. However, there is a price difference of 27,000 yuan between the top version and the middle version. Although it is equipped with high-level intelligent driving assistance function, its endurance is slightly inferior. In this respect, it depends on whether consumers are pursuing cruising range or intelligent driving function. Personally, Tucki M03 will be a good choice for young consumers who want to start a cost-effective pure tram.

HarmonyOS Zhixing enjoys the world S9 and Huawei’s full-scene new product launch conference for almost an hour. Yu Chengdong finally took the stage slowly with the shouts of the audience, bringing the third brand new car of Huawei HarmonyOS Zhixing to enjoy the world S9. After losing in the intellectual world, enjoying the world has become the key to whether Huawei can gain a foothold in the high-end pure electricity market.

This year, Yu Chengdong stopped mentioning "far ahead". It is said that it was because of a ban inside Huawei. He denied it, but he never used these words again. In the audience under the stage, someone gave a sign saying "those four words".

Yu Chengdong can really afford to be "far ahead". The first half of 2024 is the half year in which Huawei HarmonyOS Zhixing has made great strides. The M9 released at the end of last year was a great success. Since its mass delivery in April, it has been ranked first in monthly sales of cars with a price of more than 500,000 yuan, regardless of body and energy form. It can be regarded as a curve that helped LI complete the KPI of MEGA. At present, the M9 has delivered a total of 70,000 vehicles. At the beginning of this month, the 400,000-th mass production car was officially rolled off the assembly line.

In March, Cyrus’ share price once hit an all-time high of 106.66 yuan, and its market value surpassed that of LI to become the first new force to build cars. He Liyang, president of Celeste, said at the Huawei conference in April, thanks to the great Huawei.

This is not the first car company to praise Huawei so enthusiastically. Also at the Huawei conference in April this year, Yin Tongyue, chairman of Chery, also said that Huawei is a great enterprise and a model for them, and it is indispensable for China to build a good car.

However, the same statement did not bring the same sales volume to the intellectual S7 as the intellectual S7. If the sluggish sales of Zhijie S7 before April can be explained by the shortage of spare parts, after the production capacity resumed in April, the monthly sales of Zhijie S7 still stayed at more than 2,000 units, which can only be described as the cold market. Yu Chengdong had to admit before that the intellectual S7 didn’t sell well, and there was still a big gap in their marketing ability, and the intellectual brand had not been built.

At yesterday’s press conference, the Zhijie S7, which appeared on PPT with three SUVs in the world, was even more shabby. Several models in the world are marked with the sales volume of the covered screen or a large number, and only Zhijie S7 has the first net recommended value (NPS) of the brand.

Positioning the enjoyment S9, which is higher than the intellectual world and more expensive, is another attack of Huawei in the field of pure electric cars, and it is also a key battle that Huawei cannot fail. Some market voices think that the car market is not as good as SUV, and the pure electric car market is even worse, and they have doubts about whether Enjoy S9 can win the luxury pure electric car market. Huawei HarmonyOS Zhixing has not yet proved itself in the field of pure electricity.

A comparable example is Weilai ET7. The starting price of this pure electric car is nearly 30,000 yuan more expensive than that of the enjoyment S9, and the sales volume in the past two months is about 1,000 units. Since its launch, ET7 has never really established the luxury car market dominated by BBA.

Enjoy the positioning of S9 as a C-class medium and large car, and Yu Chengdong hopes it can leapfrog the D-class luxury car market of Mercedes-Benz S-class, BMW 7 Series and Audi A8. At the press conference, he used the successfully-asked M9 as the platform S9, and the two 9-series models were "Double Nine Flagships, Meet at the Peak".

Restricted by the market performance of pure electric cars in the past, it may be difficult for Enjoying S9 to replicate the sales miracle of Asking M9. The starting price of Enjoy World S9 is 399,800 yuan, which is much lower than the pre-sale price of 450,000-550,000 previously disclosed. At the press conference, Huawei also hired two stars, Huang Xiaoming and Gao Ye, as "brand friends" for Enjoyment, and they talked about the advantages of Enjoyment S9 at the press conference.

It’s hard to say how much these two stars have driven the entrepreneurs aged 40-50 targeted by Enjoy World S9, and their publicity role may not be as good as that of Weibo CEO Wang Gaofei and 360 Chairman Zhou Hongyi who co-produced short videos with Yu Chengdong. In the past, Huawei has never hired a spokesperson for HarmonyOS Zhixing’s brands.

However, the success of the industry is ahead, and car companies can no longer consider too much. BAIC Group, which cooperates with Huawei to enjoy the world, had poor sales of the polar fox brand in Hi mode before, with sales of only 30,000 vehicles last year. This year, with a lower price/performance ratio, Polar Fox finally achieved a delivery volume of over 8,000 vehicles for two consecutive months.

BAIC reached a smart car selection cooperation with Huawei last year. At the press conference, Zhang Jianyong, Chairman of BAIC Group, came to power after Yu Chengdong, and as usual, he emphasized a wave of determination to cooperate with Huawei, saying that they regarded the cooperation with Huawei as the company’s core strategy and the first priority strategy, and BAIC All In enjoyed S9.

In addition to enjoying the world, the first model of Zunjie, which Huawei cooperates with Jianghuai, is expected to be released in the first quarter of next year, and its positioning may be higher than that of Enjie.

Zhijie will also release a coupe R7 based on S7 this year, and plans to have an extended range version. Previously, there had been widespread discord between Chery and Huawei, and Yin Tongyue’s statement temporarily eliminated these disputes. But you can still see some differences from open channels.

An early user of Zhijie S7 posted a post on the social platform, and BAIC actively forwarded it on the social platform to follow up Huawei’s publicity before the release of the enjoyment, and Weibo was the top one. On the other hand, Chery, the user said, "As the owner of the intellectual world, I opened the official numbers of Chery Group and Chery New Energy. Yes, there is no such car. Weibo, who is not even willing to forward Zhijie cars. "

Zhang Jianyong’s speech on the stage may represent the attitude of car companies. He said, "BAIC and Huawei are worthy of the name, although Mr. Yu has a lot of friends." There was a lot of laughter under the stage.

Today (August 7th), the share price of Beiqi Blue Valley closed at 9.08 yuan, down slightly by 1.52%.

Lei Feng. com reported on April 11 that Baidu Smart Yunfeng Club opened today. Since Baidu announced the organizational restructuring at the end of 2018 and announced for the first time in early 2019 that the single-quarter revenue of cloud business exceeded 1 billion, the trend of Baidu Cloud has always attracted attention. At today’s conference, there was no Zhang Yaqin-style opening speech (Zhang Yaqin announced that he would retire in October this year), but both Yin Shiming, vice president of Baidu, and Baidu AI Cloud executives were full of technical models and announced many new products.

Yin Shiming’s opening speech explains in detail the behind of Baidu Cloud upgrade.

In Yin Shiming’s speech, the two key words emphasized are "intelligence+"and "+intelligence".

Yin Shiming said that Baidu put forward ABC’s strategy in 2016, and it hasn’t changed much until today, but there is an upgrade of the version (currently version 3.0). Baidu has always insisted that intelligence, data and traditional cloud computing should be trinity, but intelligence should be the core, and products and services of any industry will be transformed into intelligence.

Baidu Cloud was upgraded from Business Group (BU) to Business Group (BG) not only because it was renamed once, but because "intelligence is the DNA of Baidu Cloud", which carries Baidu AI TO B and cloud services. The cloud in the intelligent age has infinite possibilities for computing, which means that the computing power has no boundaries, the algorithm will be everywhere, and the data will be productive around the algorithm. Baidu will lead the "qualitative change" to "intellectual change" of AI thinking.

"ABC3.0 is not limited to+intelligence, not just intelligence+. Nowadays, CTOs in various industries should think about whether the business is opened in the intelligent age. "

Yin Shiming mentioned that the reason why Baidu’s ABC3.0 architecture doesn’t combine with blockchain and security slogans at will (the industry has ABCDE, etc.) is because blockchain is technology, while ABC is architecture. With this architecture, you can add any technology and do things at the platform level, including intelligent video platforms, but the architecture should be stable. Baidu has always believed that besides the primary, secondary and tertiary industries, video may become the fourth industry, and many technical directions in Baidu AI Cloud in the later period are also related to this.

In his view, ABC originated from the practice and judgment of the Internet, and it is the accumulation of search engine ideas. Now it is time to feed back the Internet. In the era of PC Internet, technical thinking was relatively heavy, and storage servers were born at that time; In the era of mobile internet, tool thinking is relatively heavy, and IaaS/PaaS are on the rise, but traditional giants will have some difficulties; In the era of intelligent Internet, ability and thinking are very important. ABC can add anything and bring new models. What Baidu provides is "ABC+ intelligence+",which implies that it can be both+intelligence and+intelligence.

"I believe this is a great era. When AI comes, we can use AI as a tool to improve our productivity. We can also say that it is a new form of intelligent Internet after PC Internet and mobile Internet. This needs us to think about it."

Xie Guangjun released new products and announced the price reduction of several cloud products.

Subsequently, Xie Guangjun, deputy general manager of Baidu AI Cloud, followed Yin Shiming to give a speech.

Xie Guangjun said, why is intelligence so hot today? It is not the rapid rise of AI capabilities, but the improvement of capabilities such as big data and cloud computing. Baidu cannot do without ABC. Today, Baidu’s ABC3.0 will also promote the transformation of Internet basic technologies.

What technology does Baidu AI Cloud have at present? This may be a place that the outside world is interested in. Xie Guangjun used a picture to answer this question.

The core message is:

At the AI level, there are 158 general capabilities, and there is the world’s number one data forecasting platform, which is known as the largest large-scale heterogeneous computing platform in China.

Big data level, 100,000-level machines, 3EB of data storage, and 100 P of data for millions of jobs per day.

In terms of cloud computing, 3 million CPU cores, 6EB storage capacity, PUE1.9, and the super-average level increased by 88%; Trillion web pages, tens of billions of video image data.

Then he recalled that in the Spring Festival Evening of 2019, Baidu AI Cloud withstood the red envelope test of China’s largest traffic, and experienced 20.8 billion activities, 100 times of traffic, 100,000 servers, 8 special clusters and 60 times of resources, which can be regarded as a comprehensive test of Baidu’s resources, but it is the technical accumulation of Baidu in the past 20 years that it can do this. To sum up, it is still the core of ABC.

Then, Xie Guangjun talked about Baidu’s existing capabilities and products to be released today from three perspectives: cloud computing, big data and AI.

At the level of cloud computing, he first announced the continuous launch of high-specification data centers, such as Baoding in North China, new AZ in Beijing in North China, new AZ in Suzhou in East China, new AZ in Guangzhou in South China, and Singapore in the near future.

Subsequently, the curtain of product release was officially opened, and more than a dozen new products were announced in one breath.

The first is to calculate new products. New generation cloud host release, high performance computing GPU release, container instance release, function computing upgrade.

Then, Xie Guangjun announced that Baidu AI Cloud fully supported IPv6.

Lei Feng. com noted that in the second half of 2018, Ali, Tencent and JD.COM have announced their full support for IPv6. What are the highlights of Baidu’s announcement? According to Xie Guangjun, Baidu provides dual-stack access capability, supports dual-stack VPC inside and outside, or an internal network from IPv4 to IPv6, and is the first instance of IPv6 BLB supporting IPv6 load balancing capability in the industry.

Subsequently, the new network products also have some feature upgrades. For example, releasing local DNS products; Flexible network card product release, service network card release, users can build multi-available services; In addition, the flexibility of the network has been enhanced, and EIP can temporarily upgrade and release bandwidth packets, which can save customers’ costs.

In terms of storage, Xie Guangjun used the word "heavy" to announce the advent of a new storage BTS.

Technically, BTS has multi-stage compression technology, with IO consumption decreasing by more than 40% compared with Hbase, parallel lock-free data structure, multi-thread throughput and writing performance improving by more than 50%. In particular, Schema Free is convenient to support millions of cases of single linear expansion to PB level; Ten million TPS.

In terms of database, a new product CRDB was released, which further improved the reading and writing ability, and realized TP-AP mixed load in NewSQL ability, with a maximum of 1 million QPS；; Transparency is achieved in fault migration, and node failure is said to be "second-level recovery". Xie Guangjun emphasized that CRDB is the core of Baidu’s search engine, and Baidu’s web database is to store data on this system.

Followed by the release of new safety products. In addition to the general capabilities of login management and asset monitoring, Xie Guangjun announced the addition of a new product (key management service) and a new feature (host security HOSTEYE). Among them, Baidu adopts distributed architecture and national secret standard in key management, which has high security and high availability, and has perfect SDK support, so users can manage and use keys independently. Host security HOSTEYE can detect and kill malicious processes such as mining.

Subsequently, two products related to audio and video were released one after another.

CDN dynamically accelerates the release of new products, with 30% requesting speed increase. Lei Feng net note: Baidu network disk is an application with high upload speed, and this technology can solve this kind of problem. The characteristic of the new product is to realize one-way acceleration to the nearest access network.

Real-time audio and video communication RTC product release has 1080P video call experience, 20% anti-packet loss rate, 99% connectivity rate, and a lot of AI capabilities integration, which is currently used in interactive live broadcast, online education classroom and video conference fields.

When Xie Guangjun finished introducing the ability of computing, a long picture showing the ability of big data suddenly appeared on the big screen.

Xie Guangjun said that in big data, Baidu has three goals:

Openness: continue to contribute core technologies to the open source community;

Easy to use: 20+ product system, perfect data processing system;

Security: authentication, security isolation, data encryption and desensitization, etc.

He also announced that Palo, a multi-warehouse product, has entered apache incubator. At present, many domestic manufacturers are using Baidu’s multi-warehouse solution, such as Meituan, Chain Home, Sohu and Xiaomi. This warehouse has deployed more than 1,000 machines, more than 200 application services, and the largest single online business volume reaches 500TB.

In streaming computing, BSC product release can be applied to real-time log analysis, real-time monitoring, real-time personalized recommendation and IoT deployment, and can be completely hosted, so users do not need to pay attention to and manage infrastructure details. In addition, he also announced the release of Pingo, a data factory, which is a highly integrated platform for data development, analysis and mining. It can complete the development of big data in one stop, which may be sought after by developers.

As the highlight of Baidu technology, AI capabilities have always been used for the finale release.

Xie Guangjun showed the picture of Baidu Brain 3.0, indicating that 158 abilities such as deep learning, dialogue search and natural language processing have been achieved. Its carriers are also diverse, including model standard platform, customized training platform and ABC all-in-one machine.

In terms of intelligent speech ability, it has high-precision speech recognition, awakening, intention understanding and smooth speech synthesis ability.

In face technology, there are comprehensive face algorithms and live detection, and perfect face products have been created, such as offline SDK, face integrated machine, PaaS API and intelligent hardware.

Subsequently, Xie Guangjun announced the price reduction information of several products, which was close to the price "waist cut". It mainly includes cloud server BCC (up to 50%), cloud disk CDS (up to 50%), object storage BOS (up to 13%), and live audio and video LSS (up to 50%).

On top of ABC’s core architecture, Baidu released the first open source edge computing platform in China, which became one of the top ten events in the field of Internet of Things in 2018 and won wide acclaim on GitHub. Open Edge builds a new edge computing framework by using Baidu’s technology accumulation, and implants strong computing power on edge devices. In addition, Baidu ABC has some combination with new 5G technologies, and is currently cooperating with China Mobile.

At the end of the speech, Li Xu, general manager of Baidu AI Cloud Video Intelligence, and Xie Danming, vice president of iQiyi, came to the stage to release the intelligent video platform. As shown in the figure.

Summary of Leifeng. com

When Baidu proposed ABC strategy in 2016, it was still a weak voice. Today, ABC has become a recognized theme in the industry. From PC Internet to mobile Internet to today’s smart Internet, the ambition of this search giant has been expanding.

"Overlapping innovation" and "thinking change" may be the most prominent labels of Baidu now.

When the internet traffic is no longer growing, Baidu must think about how to switch users. Obviously, Baidu Cloud is the leading weapon, bearing the ambition of AI to B.

Since Baidu Cloud’s DNA is intelligent, in the next 20 years, Baidu will also develop into the position and role of the intelligent core hub of the Internet. Only in the current competition on the cloud, although Baidu Cloud has become the fastest player in the industry with a revenue of over 1 billion in a single quarter, it still has a lot of work to do.
