DENZA Holds First Open Winter EV Test Drive in China
2017-03-09 11:40 by admin 点击量：2387

Manzhouli, Feb 21, 2017 —— The DENZA 400 electric vehicle (hereinafter referred to as “DENZA 400”) successfully conducted an open test-drive under snowy winter conditions in Inner Mongolia. With temperatures dipping below minus 25 degrees Celsius, the convoy was led by a group of DENZA owners, consumers, and members of the media, showcasing the innovative technology behind DENZA’s new vehicle by pushing it to its limits on the ice. The event marked a milestone for the EV brand in China.

With consumer needs as focus, DENZA’s goal is to produce the best electric cars in China. To put its technology to the test, the snow driving challenged DENZA vehicles with the harshest winter weather conditions, including low temperatures, rain, snow, and high winds. What consumers need most from electric cars are reliability, stability, and comfortable handling. The successful completion of the winter test drive in Manzhouli proves the DENZA 400 can cope in even the most treacherous winter driving situations, thus consumers can drive with peace of mind in their daily lives.

Other concerns for electric car users include battery and driving range. Manzhouli’s climate and terrain offers the ideal opportunity to put these elements to the test. DENZA uses lithium iron phosphate batteries, which perform well even in low temperature environments. During the event, the 62kWh batteries in accordance with the highest standards and upgraded motor and electronic control systems were found to work perfectly even in temperatures reaching minus 25 degrees Celsius. At the same time, DENZA’s intelligent power supply protection function automatically switched the battery to a low-voltage charge to avoid over-consumption. This guaranteed a reliable start-up even in arctic conditions.

In winter climates, low temperatures have a greater impact on the mechanical properties and stability of a vehicle. Snow turns roads into treacherous obstacle courses, meaning that reliable control and safety are vital. for the field test, , DENZA carried out various turns and angles to spell out “DENZA” on the icy surface of Manzhouli’s North Lake . The vehicles took corners with perfect control, remaining stable throughout each curve. A 0.26 second full torque response took the DENZA 400 Aurora just 4 seconds to complete, with 0 to 50 km/h acceleration, and a speed advantage within straight 150-meter acceleration. This ease of handling offers users a safe yet exhilarating driving experience.

For the test drive, figure-8 trails were created with side slipping driving lines. Faced with ultra-low road adhesion, the DENZA 400’s excellent handling and body stability were made obvious. Equipped with Daimler’s chassis, suspension and tuning design, and a specially assembled ESP system from Bosch, the DENZA 400 offers a dynamic, stable, and comfortable performance, even in the harshest snow and ice. High-quality German technology provides consumers with excellent handling and five-star safety.

The snow driving test team set out from Manzhouli’s Taowa Square to reach the finishing point at the border of China, Russia, and Mongolia. The journey allowed the team to experience the full range of DENZA’s technology – quiet, comfortable driving, along with rapid acceleration. The new seat heating system provided much needed warmth and comfort in temperatures that dropped below minus 25 degrees Celsius, which was vital on such a long trip. The test drivers got to experiment with the new trunk induction function (easily operated with just the press of the foot), as well as the panorama roof, ambient lighting system, outside mirror memory, and Easy Access main auto position adjustment.

DENZA's exceptional performance in winter conditions comes with the assurance of numerous cold-climate trials and experiments. DENZA has tested more than 120 vehicles in various climatic and road conditions across 1.8 million kilometres of terrain. Every year, DENZA sends search and development teams to China’s northern region for winter testing. Rigorous tests across the entire vehicle and its various components guarantee that DENZA cars meet users’ driving requirements even in arctic environments.

With DENZA, quality and peace of mind can be achieved in the harshest of winter conditions making outstanding performance in regular daily use a breeze. With its pioneering technology and strong consumer focus, DENZA is set to become China’s best electric car.

…‘No News Is Good News’. Everyone at TVR remains acutely aware of the expectation among enthusiasts as well as the appetite for updates on the new cars.

Such high levels of interest are tremendously flattering and, as we continue to make exciting progress with our development plans, it’s certainly tempting to reveal snippets.

However, we continue to believe it’s best not to share details of our plans publicly just yet. We understand this is the source of a little frustration for some, though a majority of the community have been generous in applauding our tight-lipped stance. In previous years there have been disappointments, when early announcements came to nothing, and we’re determined not to make similar mistakes. However, we’re pleased to report enormous progress towards TVR’s return and our relative silence shouldn’t be interpreted as anything more than our absolute focus on making this comeback permanent.

Much Loved British Sports Car Brand TVR Returns

Revered British sports car brand TVR is to make a welcome return to Britain after its owner, Russian businessman Nikolai Smolensky, agreed to sell the brand rights and all other assets to a syndicate of British investors.

Revered British sports car brand TVR is to make a welcome return to Britain after its owner, Russian businessman Nikolai Smolensky, agreed to sell the brand rights and all other assets to a syndicate of British investors.

The syndicate, incorporated as ‘TVR Automotive Ltd.’, now owns all TVR’s IP including its global trademarks, patents and designs. Also included in the sale were the entirety of TVR’s physical assets, including engines, chassis, jigs, body parts and spares, together with large amounts of historical documentation in both hard and soft copy formats.

Commenting on the acquisition, Chairman of TVR Automotive Les Edgar said, “It’s a tremendously exciting day and superb news for TVR enthusiasts and owners at home and abroad. Having lamented the demise of the famous Blackpool-based company, lovers of British sports cars everywhere now have something to celebrate. TVR is back where it belongs.”

Reflecting on the process of landing the brand back in Britain, the investors have put on record their thanks to Nikolai Smolensky for clearing the way for the acquisition and sincerely appreciate the cooperation received.

For his part, Mr. Smolensky added, “I am pleased to see TVR returning to its home country and, along with all sports car fans, look forward to what’s coming next. I’m confident TVR Automotive will do a great job.”

Les Edgar continued, “Our intention is to build new TVRs in the best traditions of the much loved classics. Planning is well under way for all-new cars, but we also intend to support the existing TVR community. Owners, enthusiasts and specialist engineering firms have kept the thunder rumbling these past few years and we’re looking forward to meeting and building great relationships with everyone.”

TVR Accepting Deposits for its New 2017 Car

TVR to accept deposits for its new 2017 car in view of unprecedented enthusiasm and demand following announcement of the new car.

TVR to accept deposits for its new 2017 car in view of unprecedented enthusiasm and demand following announcement of the new car.

We have to say that we have been delighted – indeed bowled over – by the tremendous positive reaction to the announcement of our plans for the new TVR, and in particular the huge number of positive expressions of desire to place an order and to secure a place in the production queue. In order to satisfy that desire, and as it will assist us in planning the early years ahead, we have brought forward our plans to accept formal deposits against allocated build slots for the new car, in order of date of application.

We are very aware of the historic issues surrounding previous owners of the marque and issues over deposits, and can assure that these will not be repeated. If you are uncomfortable placing a deposit at this stage, we respect that. However, we should advise that from the expressions of interest to date we are confident that at least the first year’s production run will quickly be sold out. A small measure of risk isn’t for everyone, and we appreciate that, but we are very well backed, and here to stay.

The deposit scheme will go live at midday on July 7th 2015.

Here are some examples of the great coverage we have received since the announcement of the car.

FAQs
Is my deposit refundable?
Yes, until you place your formal order (once specifications and options have been announced), you will be able to apply for a refund. There will be no deductions for administration fees or the like by TVR, although there may be charges/deductions by bank or credit card companies. All we ask is that if you place a deposit, you do so in good faith.

Is my money at risk?
No – we would never allow that to be the case. We are well funded, and are here to stay! The deposit line has opened in response to a large number of requests from potential customers wishing to place a deposit on the basis of the information currently available both in the motoring press and on our website. If you do not consider this to be sufficient for you to decide whether or not you should place a deposit, we recommend you do not do so. However, if you pay by credit card, your payment is guaranteed by the credit card company.

What is the Launch Edition?
The Launch Edition, or LE (no prizes!), is a limited run with extra specification and special features at a discounted price against the usual list price for that specification, to celebrate the marque’s return to production in its 70th birthday year.

If I order a car now do I have to have a Launch Edition?
No, you can exercise a choice when placing your order. This can be changed later on. Once the slots have been sold a waiting list will be maintained in case any LE orders are varied or cancelled.

Is it permissible to place multiple deposits?
We are aware that some individuals may intend to place two deposits – ‘one to keep, one to sell’. Acceptance of more than 2 deposits from one individual or organisation is subject to prior discussion. We are aware that there is likely to be a profit opportunity from selling on build slots, but wish to keep that aspect contained to a reasonably measured degree – we want the cars to go to enthusiasts at the right price, not via speculators making multiple turns.

Will I be able to sell, or ‘flip’, my deposit?
Yes – this will be allowed – but only once per buyer save by prior arrangement.

There is no formal specification or price list yet – how can I be sure I want one?
If you don’t agree that the new car is a giant slayer, a TVR in every way, and incredible value for money, and you decide you don’t want to proceed with a formal order, we’ll give you your money back – no problem.

I’d Like to place a deposit on a convertible – can I do that now?
We are not yet taking deposits for convertible cars.

Will there be a LHD drive version at launch?
Yes.

Will the launch car meet legislation in my country?
The first car will initially be manufactured to EC SSTA (EU Small Series Type Approval) specifications and as such will be available in all EU countries and be available in right or left-hand drive versions.

In due course we will manufacture to further international standards. However, the launch model will need to be purchased in the EU and you will need to arrange for it to be individually exported and undertake whatever local type approvals are required to register the car locally yourself.

We are happy for you to place a deposit on a car in order to secure a place in the queue now while you investigate this further, and should you discover that it is unlikely that you would be unable to import the car then we will happily refund the deposit.

How will I know what my position in the queue is?
We will not be announcing specific positions at this stage, but broadly speaking, your position is determined at the time we receive cleared funds for your deposit. However, as credit card companies, banks and cheques can take varying times to clear funds, there may be a discrepancy between when you authorise your payment and when we actually receive the funds.
