In recent years, the trend of highway logistics efficiency has been fully demonstrated, especially in the transportation scenarios such as express delivery, green pass, cold chain, etc., because of the long distance and tight timeliness, the requirements for transportation tools are getting higher and higher. For car companies, this market is not only an arena for competing for sales, but also a big stage for competing for technical strength, seizing the efficient trunk logistics market, which is equivalent to occupying the commanding heights of the forefront of the industry. Therefore, many industry leaders have invested in the most advanced technology and the most advanced configuration and launched a number of flagship models.
Objectively speaking, the configuration of the flagship models of major brands is not low, but the car we introduced today, even among so many excellent competitors, still appears to be different, TA is dongfeng Tianlong KX king version.
High horsepower Low fuel consumption for efficient logistics
The development of tractors in the direction of high horsepower is the trend of tractors in recent years, I believe that many old drivers still have memories, before 2010, the logistics market is still dominated by 340/380 horsepower models, to 2013 after the 400 horsepower segment models gradually formed a climate, and after 2016, the market has appeared 500 horsepower models, until now has occupied the mainstream of the high-end tractor market.
Time has passed, today, whether it can enter the 600 horsepower segment has become a watershed for high-end heavy trucks, and there are only a few models on the market that can really get the 600 horsepower threshold, and dongfeng Tianlong KX King Edition is one of them. In terms of engine, Dongfeng Tianlong KX King Edition is equipped with Dongkang 14L engine, with a maximum horsepower of 600 horses and a maximum torque of 2750 Nm, and the horsepower and torque have reached the top gear in the industry. This engine has a fast power response, the starting acceleration time, overtaking acceleration time is better than similar models by 5%, and the high-speed climbing time is better than 9%, and the competitive advantage is obvious.
In terms of gearbox, Dongfeng Tianlong KX King Edition adopts the Win Motion (Cummins Eaton) AMT gearbox, which reduces the frequency of shifts by 25%, has fewer power interruptions, higher transmission efficiency, and smoother gear changes. At present, AMT has become the standard of high-end heavy trucks, and its effect in improving driving comfort and reducing fuel consumption has been recognized by the vast majority of cardholders. However, although AMT has many benefits, it also needs to pay attention to choosing a brand. Its working principle is to use TCU modules to simulate manual shifting, requiring the software to have a large number of road condition model accumulation and mature analysis capabilities to ensure the ability of AMT to cope with complex working conditions. As a well-known brand in the field of transmission, Eaton is also an early company that invested in the research and development of AMT, and its experience in this area is undoubtedly more reassuring.
In addition to the efficient power configuration, economy is also a highlight of Dongfeng Tianlong KX King Edition. Thanks to a number of fuel-saving technologies for the engine and the whole vehicle, its minimum specific fuel consumption reaches 184g/kwh, and the fuel consumption of 100 kilometers of real roads is also about 2L lower than that of the same level of models on the market, and according to the calculation of 200,000 kilometers of annual operation, 24,000 yuan can be saved a year. In terms of maintenance costs, Dongfeng Tianlong KX King Edition has achieved a maintenance mileage of 10+30+300,000 kilometers of machine + box + bridge, which is lower in maintenance costs and improves attendance.
In addition, Dongfeng Tianlong KX King Edition also matches the dual fuel tank design of 850+300L, and the volume of the large urea tank is 65L. From the perspective of domestic operating lines, the farthest one-way is about 3,000 kilometers, and there is no need for additional fuel urea, eliminating the process of refueling queues, and further improving transportation efficiency.
Comfort and intelligence lead the development trend of high-end heavy trucks
Long-distance trunk transport is a big test for the driver's physical state, the current mainstream logistics companies in the recruitment of drivers, in addition to the lower limit of driving age, most of the upper age limit also has certain requirements, is afraid of "elderly" drivers are difficult to cope with high-intensity work, which to some extent caused the scope of employment to shrink, increase the difficulty of recruitment. From the perspective of automakers, improving driving comfort and increasing the driving assistance system is a way to help users solve problems, and it is also the current trend of high-end heavy truck development.
Observing the comfort of the Dongfeng Tianlong KX King Edition, you will find that there are many surprises. The 140mm full airbag cab is suspended, and the adjustable airbag seat has ventilation and heating function, and the overall vibration damping effect is better than that of the same class. The overall cab is very well sealed, with acoustic acoustic insulation materials applied, and the noise during idling and driving is lower. Standard 12.3-inch instrument + 12.8-inch large screen, support voice control, mobile phone interconnection, set entertainment and practical functions in one. The multi-function steering wheel integrates 20 function controls, and the sleeper area also integrates lighting, sound, air conditioning, side window/sunroof integrated control panel (optional 1 meter pull-out sleeper, co-pilot airbag seat, car refrigerator, etc.). In addition, there are some details of the configuration is difficult to describe one by one, on the whole, Dongfeng Tianlong KX King Edition of the comfort configuration is more comprehensive, intimate, basically taking into account the most practical needs of the card friend car, can see Dongfeng's warm care for users.
Buying a car is to get rich, in addition to money and wealth, personal health and safety is the most important wealth in our lives. In this regard, Dongfeng Tianlong KX King Edition has also made sufficient efforts, and the active and passive security configurations have reached the highest level in the industry. It comes standard with ESC Electronic Stability System, LDWS Lane Departure + FCWS Pre-Collision Warning. Optional all-vehicle disc brakes, steering wheel puncture emergency safety devices, vehicle tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), electronic braking system (EBS), automatic emergency braking system (AEBS). Through the camera and the large screen in the car, high-definition surround view images, double-sided blind area monitoring, a number of technical blessings, full of security.
In addition, Dongfeng Tianlong KX King Edition also has two models to choose from, cold zone and hot zone, which provide some differentiated configurations to better meet the individual needs of users in different use scenarios.
Overall, the configuration of Dongfeng Tianlong KX King Edition accurately positions the core demands of efficient logistics, and has a good performance in terms of power, fuel saving, comfort, reliability and intelligence. Compared with the high-end flagship models of the current mainstream brands, Dongfeng Tianlong KX King Edition has achieved comprehensive configuration without losing, and has certain advantages in horsepower, fuel saving and a series of detailed design, which is enough to score a high score of S+ level.
