BYD Equation Leopard responded to the "wrench" incident: all kinds of tests meet the strict use requirements.

On January 7 th, recently, the story of "using a wrench to break the equation Leopard 5 girder" spread on the short video platform, which triggered a heated discussion among netizens. In this regard, Equation Leopard Product Manager responded in the official community "Leopard Solution Equation" column.

The cause of the incident is.

However, some netizens have questioned that this is based on the principle of physical leverage, and the stress point is selected at a corner rather than the bearing area of the actual chassis. It is bound to be deformed when a big wrench is used to pry the small side. As this incident intensified, the original video of the incident has also been deleted by myself.

The product manager of Leopard 5 responded that the main frame of Leopard 5 is made of high-strength steel with yield strength > >750MPA and tensile strength of 800MPA;. Chassis swing arm high strength steel, yield strength > 500 MPa, tensile strength 550MPA.

In structural simulation, ultra-high strength bench test, real vehicle durability test, high and low temperature test, salt spray corrosion durability test and misuse test in various off-road working conditions, the non-load-bearing big frame of Leopard 5 meets the strict use requirements.

The main contents of the response from IT House are as follows:

As the core component of non-loaded hard-core SUV, the big frame bears the heavy responsibility of giving consideration to reliability, passability and comfort when dealing with various off-road working conditions. Among them, the non-load-bearing big frame also replaces the safety collision and bearing capacity of the load-bearing car body and chassis to some extent.

Under extreme working conditions such as off-road, the big frame can absorb most of the impact energy and then protect the upper body. Therefore, the non-load-bearing big frame is the core component for hard-core off-road vehicles, which not only ensures the structural strength of off-road impact, but also ensures the convenience of maintenance and disassembly.

Leopard 5 is a super hybrid hard-core SUV with dual characteristics of urban and outdoor off-road use. In order to ensure the safety of users’ vehicles in various scene conditions, the main body and swing arm of the non-load-bearing large frame are made of high-strength steel and high-quality steel commonly used in the automobile industry. At the same time, in the process of R&D and design, different types of materials will be selected according to the comprehensive conditions of the use environment requirements, structural strength requirements, lightweight requirements and simulation tests in different areas of the large frame.

Among them, the main body of the big frame is made of high-strength steel with yield strength > >750MPA and tensile strength of 800MPA;. Chassis swing arm high strength steel, yield strength > 500 MPa, tensile strength 550MPA. In structural simulation, ultra-high strength bench test, real vehicle durability test, high and low temperature test, salt spray corrosion durability test and misuse test in various off-road working conditions, the non-load-bearing big frame of Leopard 5 meets the strict use requirements.

Equation Leopard brand always believes that "safety is the greatest luxury of electric vehicles", and car safety is always at the top of our research and development. Adhering to the core value of people-oriented, through the safe and reliable design concept and the intelligent production of real materials, we have polished the Leopard 5 product after years of research and development, and gradually gained verification and feedback from a large number of users. The satisfaction of users is the biggest motivation for us to keep moving forward.

A wrench has aroused the attention of many users. We look forward to starting with the column "leopard solving equations", so that we can not only pay attention to speculation, but also get professional and scientific answers and bring better and more beneficial value experience to users. Thank you for your support!
