Recently, the “Protect Wild Siberian Tiger We Are in Action” public welfare activity jointly sponsored by China Automobile News, China Ecological Civilization Research and Promotion Association, Hunchun Wildlife Conservation Association, “Automobile and Sports” magazine, and Chery Automobile was officially launched. During the activity, the team members and the patrol officers of the Hunchun Forestry Bureau jointly drove Chery’s new-generation Tiggo 8, Xingtu TXL, and Xingtu LX three models deep into the forest, sea and snow field to remove all kinds of hunting traps and animal traps that threatened the survival of Siberian tigers. And learn to identify the footprints and traces of various wild animals in the snow, and investigate the distribution of local vegetation and winter wild survival knowledge, and make your own efforts to understand and improve the living environment of wild Siberian tigers.
As the largest cat in the world, the Siberian tiger is erratic and ferocious. Its main habitat covers Northeast China and the Russian Far East. However, due to various reasons such as changes in the living environment, there are currently only more than 30 wild Siberian tigers. In order to allow the Siberian tigers living here to survive the winter with peace of mind, it is particularly important to maintain and create a good natural ecological environment.
Gong Demin, director of the Propaganda and Liaison Department of the China Ecological Civilization Research and Promotion Association, expressed his high appreciation for this event, “It is imperative to strengthen biodiversity protection. The survival status of the ‘King of the Mountain’ tiger is endangered, and the survival of more vulnerable creatures Even less optimistic. Although the scale of this event is small, it focuses on major themes, which is very meaningful and down-to-earth.”
Since the start of the activity, the mountain patrol team has lasted 10 days, with a total journey of more than 4,000 kilometers, passing through the Shanhaiguan Pass and the Northeast Plain, and finally arrived at Changbai Mountains, one of the habitats of Siberian tigers, and went deep into the mountains of Hunchun, Jilin. Severe weather and complex road conditions such as icy and snowy roads and winding roads for activities have put forward higher requirements for the overall performance of vehicles.
It is worth mentioning that the three new-generation Tiggo 8, Xingtu TXL, and Xingtu LX vehicles driving this time are all equipped with the Chery 1.6TGDI engine that won the “China Heart” 2019 Top Ten Engines , which took the lead in adopting five core technologies of Chery iHEC (intelligent effect) combustion system, rapid heating thermal management system, rapid response supercharging technology, friction reduction technology, and lightweight technology. Its thermal efficiency is as high as 37.1%, and it continues to lead Chinese brand engines. It is worthy of the name The strongest “Chinese core”.
During the event, the team members were deeply impressed by the performance of the new-generation Tiggo 8 and other three event vehicles. With the peak torque of 290N m and the maximum power of 145kW produced by the 1.6TGDI engine, the team was able to easily cross forests, seas and snowfields and conquer This section of nearly 4,000 kilometers of complex road conditions. At the same time, the NVH (vibration and noise) adjustment and energy-saving and environmental protection performance are even more outstanding. On the way from Beijing to Hunchun, the team members experienced the performance charm of this top ten engine through personal driving experience.
In addition to the gratifying performance, Chery’s reliable quality during the long journey is even more commendable. As the only OEM that promises a 10-year engine warranty of one million kilometers, Chery has developed a new engine that requires at least 15,000 hours of various bench tests and at least 1 million kilometers of actual vehicle road tests. The development and verification of high humidity extreme environment honed the best product quality.
Chery hopes that through the protection of such a rare species as the Siberian tiger, Chery hopes to awaken the public’s awareness and protection of the degradation of biodiversity, the degradation of the ecological environment, and the decline of ecosystem services in the existing ecosystem. . In the future, Chery Automobile will carry out more forms of charitable public welfare activities in combination with its own business. While the rapid development of the enterprise creates more economic benefits, it will actively seek the meeting point between the development of the enterprise and the harmony of the society, create value together, and seek common welfare. Assume more corporate social responsibilities, and strive to be a warm and responsible Chinese national brand.
