Former US Treasury Secretary Summers said on Wednesday local time that if Trump is elected president and fulfills his campaign promise, the United States may face a serious inflation crisis again. In an interview with the media, Summers pointed out that Trump’s policies of reducing taxes, raising tariffs and expelling illegal immigrants will have a serious impact on the US economy. He believes that if these plans are implemented, the United States will suffer a bigger inflation crisis than in 2021.

Considering the scale of inflation in 2021 and its harm, Summers’ warning is particularly serious. At that time, the US CPI data began to rise rapidly in the spring and reached a 40-year high of 9.1% in June 2022. Many Americans have never experienced such a high inflation rate, and until today, the economic and political system in the United States still feels its impact. Although the current inflation rate has dropped sharply, the price level has not decreased, and the high cost of living is also one of the important factors for Trump to return to the White House.

The latest data shows that the CPI of the United States rose by 2.6% year-on-year and 0.2% quarter-on-quarter in October; In October, the core CPI rose by 3.3% year-on-year and 0.3% quarter-on-quarter. All four indicators are in line with market expectations.

Summers hopes that Trump can learn from this election and adjust his plan to avoid causing inflation. However, Trump’s transition team refuted this warning, and spokeswoman Caroline Levitt said that during Trump’s first term, he imposed tariffs on foreign countries, created employment opportunities and stimulated investment, which did not lead to inflation. She added that Trump will quickly repair and restore the economy and achieve full employment by returning American jobs, reducing inflation, raising real wages, reducing taxes, reducing supervision and lifting the energy constraints in the United States.

Scott Besant, a hedge fund executive who may become Trump’s finance minister, also refuted inflation concerns, saying that Trump would reproduce the inflation crisis is absurd. He said that Trump hopes that under his leadership, all Americans can live a good life.

In addition to Summers, the Nobel laureate in economics also warned that Trump’s agenda would "reignite" inflation. According to a recent survey, more than two-thirds of economists believe that if Trump is re-elected, the inflation rate in the United States will rise faster than if Harris is elected.

Summers believes that the Biden administration’s excessive stimulus to the economy in 2021 led to the inflation problem. He said that the current situation is similar to the period after the last election. He also warned that Trump’s series of plans may have a linkage effect, which will lead to the risk that inflation will get out of control.

In recent years, camping and go on road trip have been favored by consumers, and outdoor consumption and gathering scenes are also one of Wang Laoji’s important consumption scenes. On April 25th, Wang Laoji and Chery Jietu Automobile held a strategic cooperation signing ceremony in auto china. The two brands jointly focus on the field of go on road trip, and use innovative forms such as product empowerment, online and offline linkage, and joint branding to explore new outdoor consumption scenarios around the "Travel+"ecosystem. At the signing ceremony, Wang Lao Ji × Jietu co-branded custom cans were unveiled. Combined with the theme of this cooperation and the layout of the "Travel+"ecological circle, this joint-name can adds the Jietu automobile logo and travel quotations to the can body, aiming at conveying the fun of go on road trip and adding impetus to the journey of consumers and sincere cooperation between the two parties.

As the world’s top-selling natural plant drink *, Wang Laoji is a representative of fashionable and healthy drinks. Jietu has the reputation of a five-star healthy car and is an advocate of "travel+"fashion lifestyle, which coincides with Wang Laoji. At the same time, Wang Laoji has always paid attention to the outdoor innovative experience. Combining with the "Travel+"ecosystem proposed by Jietu, drinking Wang Laoji in core consumption scenes such as self-driving and camping will be an outdoor innovative experience. The cross-border cooperation with Jietu Automobile is the deep resonance of the two brands’ pursuit of quality life for consumers. I believe that this cooperation will bring consumers a carefree experience of "not afraid of getting angry, all the way to success" and feel the good luck and auspiciousness brought by Wang Laoji.

The successful launch of the conference between Wang Laoji and Jietu Automobile is an important witness to the joint efforts of the two sides to break the circle and cross the border to create a new travel ecology. With "go on road trip" and "camping" as the anchor point, we can gain insight into the demand of the tourism market and give play to our own advantages. In the future, Wang Lao Ji and Jietu will jointly develop related scenes in go on road trip, and break down industry barriers from the perspectives of "food", "beautiful scenery" and "go on road trip travel" by combining the existing categories and product characteristics. Open up a broad market space and create a unique series of go on road trip products. Both parties will constantly improve and upgrade the "Travel+"ecosystem to enhance the consumer experience.

For a long time, Wang Lao Ji brand has been committed to adopting innovative ways to bring novel products and unique experiences to consumers and show the charm of the brand in a diversified way. In order to deeply integrate into consumers’ daily life, Wang Laoji focuses on excavating the deep meanings of "fear of getting angry" and "auspicious culture", and comprehensively explores and meets the specific needs of different consumer circles. Wang Lao Ji brand knows that if it wants to stand out in the fierce competition market, it must always stand from the perspective of consumers and constantly innovate and improve.

Therefore, the brand has always been committed to deeply understanding the needs of consumers, so as to provide products and services that are more in line with their expectations. The success of Wang Laoji brand lies not only in the uniqueness and high quality of its products, but also in its persistence in taking consumers as the center, innovation as the driving force and culture as the link to create a better life experience for consumers.

　　Reference message networkReported on August 6Western media said that it is not easy to create an Olympic mascot, and it is even more difficult for people to like it and stay in memory. Mascots first appeared at the 1972 Munich Olympic Games in Germany. "National newspaper" organized a number of design experts to count and rank 12 mascots since Munich Olympic Games.

　　According to the Spanish newspaper El Pais on August 4th, the original mascots often faithfully reflect the most representative animals in the host city or country. Many mascots are conservative in design and lack innovation. So Spanish designer Javier Mariscal brought the mascot Cobi to the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games. Cobi outlined by abstract lines brings infinite imagination to people, but we can still see the appearance of Spanish shepherd. Izzy, the mascot of the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games, is a completely imaginary creature. Design experts point out that high recognition is very important for a mascot. The image of the mascot should not be a cliche, at least let the audience spend a second thinking: why is it designed like this?

　　According to the report, in the minds of several design experts, the mascot of the 1976 Montreal Olympic Games, Beaver Amik, ranked first from the bottom, the mascots of the Barcelona, Rio and Munich Olympic Games occupied the top three, and the mascot of the Beijing Olympic Games, Fuwa, ranked seventh in the middle reaches. The following will introduce these 12 Olympic mascots one by one from back to front:

　　Twelfth place: Amik, the mascot of the 1976 Montreal Olympic Games.

　　Amik’s image is a realistic beaver. Beaver is a unique animal in Canada, and Amik means "beaver" in aboriginal language. Design experts believe that Amik’s design is too simple, lacking originality and dull in color. Many spectators forgot all about this dusty beaver after this Olympic Games.

　　Eleventh place: Izzy, mascot of the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games.

　　No one knows what Izzy really is. It was the first Olympic mascot that didn’t represent any real animals. In fact, its original name was "What’s this". According to the designer, Izzy is a little boy who lives in a city among the Olympic flame and dreams of participating in the Olympic Games. The reason why Izzy hangs the Olympic rings on his eyes and tail is to be able to transform at will and have stronger athletic ability. Although Izzy’s birth broke the old rules, the sense of over-exertion in design did not win the favor of the audience and experts.

　　Tenth place: Sam, mascot of the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games.

　　Sam, the mascot designed by the American Disney Company, is a perfect interpretation of the United States, and almost all the cultural representative elements of the United States are collected. Sam is a bald eagle, the national bird of the United States, with the same name as the American symbol "Uncle Sam", and the color of his clothes is taken from the American flag. It is worth noting that the last Los Angeles Olympic Games was held in Moscow, when the United States and the Soviet Union were in the cold war. Therefore, experts agree that Sam’s interpretation is more like patriotism than the Olympic spirit.

　　Ninth place: Misha, mascot of the 1980 Moscow Olympic Games.

　　Misha is a Russian bear, created by a famous Soviet illustrator for children. Its image has been used in hundreds of Olympic souvenirs such as T-shirts, backpacks and cups, so it has made great achievements in the commercialization of mascots. However, experts believe that Misha’s design is not successful, because its audience seems to be limited to children, and it can’t convey the Olympic spirit well.

　　Eighth place: Olly, Sid and Millie, mascots of the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games

　　Olly, Sid and Millie are three endemic animals in Australia: Kookawa, platypus and echidna. Experts believe that these mascots are really cute, interesting and different, but it seems that this is more because of the selection of rare species as mascots than because of the brilliant design. If nothing else, these mascots at least enable the audience to distinguish the mole from the echidna and know that the platypus is a mammal.

　　Seventh place: Fuwa, the mascot of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games

　　The five Fuwa are called Beibei, Jingjing, Huanhuan, Yingying and Nini, and their shapes incorporate elements of fish, panda, Olympic flame, Tibetan antelope and swallow. The colors of the five Fuwa are taken from the Olympic rings, and they also represent the five elements of China — — Gold, wood, water, fire and earth. Interestingly, reading their names together means "Welcome to Beijing". Experts believe that the image of Fuwa is quite Asian, but the five mascots seem to be too scattered. For ordinary people, it is not easy to keep all their names in mind and correspond to them one by one.

　　Fifth place: Hodori, the mascot of the 1988 Seoul Olympic Games, and Athena and Phevos, the mascots of the 2004 Athens Olympic Games.

　　The mascot of Seoul Olympic Games is a little tiger named Hodori. Experts believe that this little tiger, which looks rather like a cat, is very cute, symbolizing friendship, joy and respect.

　　With Hodori tied, Athens Olympic mascots Athena and Phevos were brothers and sisters. Their creations are inspired by ancient Greek clay sculptures. Experts pointed out that the unique image of the two brothers and sisters broke the tradition, and the hand-in-hand gesture conveyed the spirit of world harmony and friendship first.

　　Fourth place: Wenlock, the mascot of the 2012 London Olympic Games.

　　According to the designer, Wenlock is made of the last drop of molten iron left when casting the steel beam of London Olympic Stadium. Wenlock’s name is to commemorate the wenlock Games held in March wenlock, England. Coubertin, the father of the Olympics, was inspired by the wenlock Games, and then founded the modern Olympic Movement. Experts believe that Wenlock’s image is completely out of animal nature and quite innovative.

　　Third place: Waldi, mascot of the 1972 Munich Olympic Games.

　　The first mascot in the history of the Summer Olympic Games was Waldi the dachshund. Dachshunds are produced in Bavaria, Germany. They are very cute with long body and short legs. Waldi’s image represents the tenacity and agility of athletes. However, some experts pointed out that the five rings represent five continents, and Waldi has only three colors, which is suspected of ignoring Africa and America.

　　Second place: Vinicius, mascot of Rio 2016 Olympic Games.

　　This half-monkey, half-cat, blue and yellow mascot is inspired by Brazilian animals. Vinicius was named in memory of Brazilian musician and diplomat vinicius de Moraes. Experts believe that Vinicius conveys joy and sportsmanship, with a pleasing image and a sense of the times. Other experts emphasized that designers also expressed their love and respect for the natural environment through Vinicius.

　　First place: Cobi, mascot of the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games.

　　Some people may think that Spanish design experts will definitely wear the laurel on the head of the Spanish mascot during the selection. But experts said that Cobi won the first place — — The lovely shepherd image represents joy and innocence, and the simple and smooth lines are not only contemporary, but also impressive.

　　BEIJING, Aug. 16 (Xinhua) According to the US "World Journal" report, Beibei, a panda born in Washington, USA, will celebrate her 4th birthday in August, but it also means that Beibei will soon leave Washington and return to China. Washington National Zoo will hold a birthday party for Beibei on August 22nd, and it will be open to the public.

　　Data Map: On August 20, 2016, local time, the Chinese Embassy in the United States and the National Zoo in Washington, USA jointly celebrated the first birthday of the giant panda Beibei in the park. Beibei, a male giant panda, was born on August 22, 2015. His parents are Tian Tian and Mei Xiang, giant pandas living in the United States. China News Service reporter Yan Haiyang photo

　　It is reported that this will be the first time for Beibei to leave her home in Washington. According to the regulations of the Sino-US cooperative breeding program, pandas born in the United States must be sent back to China before they are 4 years old. The National Zoo in Washington said that the specific date has not yet been determined, and the initial plan is in the next few months.

　　The zoo is planning a birthday party. The garden said that the nutrition science department of the zoo will make a special frozen cake for Beibei. In 2018, they made a "bamboo cake" for Beibei, with all kinds of fresh fruits and biscuits made of leaves. On the same day, people can go to the scene to celebrate Beibei’s birthday. The zoo is open from 8 am to 5 pm.

　　Beibei was born in 2015. Her mother Mei Xiang and her father Tian Tian were pregnant with Beibei through artificial conception. Mei Xiang and Tian Tian had another Bao Bao, who was two years older than Beibei, and was sent back to China in 2017.

　　"Meixiang" has been successfully pregnant again recently. The National Zoo in Washington said that various behaviors of "Meixiang" in recent days show that it may be successful, including increased sensitivity to noise, drowsiness, building a nest for herself with bamboo, and spending less time outdoors, preferring to exercise indoors.

　　"Meixiang" received artificial insemination in March 2019. It is reported that Mei Xiang and Tian Tian have had three cubs before, namely Tai Shan, born on July 9, 2005, Baobei, born on August 23, 2013, and Beibei, Taishan and Baobei, born on August 22, 2015, currently live in China.

With the rapid development of automobile technology, automatic transmission, as the core component of automobile power transmission, its performance and durability have always been the focus of consumers’ attention. Among them, 6AT(6-speed automatic transmission) and 8AT(8-speed automatic transmission) are two mainstream gearbox technologies in the market at present, and their durability differences and gear selection issues have been discussed.So, who is more durable, 6AT or 8AT? The higher the gear, the better? Who has the strongest 8AT technology in domestic car companies? This article will make it clear for you at one time.

1. Technical principles and structural differences

Both 6AT and 8AT belong to hydraulic automatic transmission (AT), and its core components include hydraulic torque converter and planetary gear set. The hydraulic torque converter transmits the power of the engine to the transmission mechanism through transmission oil, while the planetary gear set is responsible for the power transmission and transmission. From the structural point of view, 8AT has one or more planetary gear sets than 6AT, which means that 8AT may have more advantages in shifting smoothness, fuel economy and performance. However, it is precisely because of the more complicated structure that the difficulty in manufacturing and maintenance of 8AT increases accordingly.

2. Durability considerations

Durability is a comprehensive consideration, involving the design, manufacturing quality, use conditions and maintenance of gearbox. From the perspective of structural complexity, the failure probability of 6AT is theoretically lower than that of 8AT because of its relatively simple structure. However, this does not mean that 6AT is necessarily more durable than 8AT. With the development of technology and manufacturing technology, the durability of 8AT has also been significantly improved. In addition, the advantages of 8AT in shifting smoothness, fuel economy and performance also make it more competitive in some usage scenarios.

3. Market performance and user feedback

In terms of market performance, both 6AT and 8AT have their own market positioning and user groups. 6AT is widely used in low-end vehicles because of its simple structure and low cost. The 8AT is more mounted on mid-to high-end models to provide better driving experience and fuel economy. In terms of user feedback, both of them have certain praise and bad reviews. Some users think that 6AT is stable and reliable, and its maintenance cost is low. Others prefer the shift smoothness and fuel economy of 8AT.

To sum up, there is no absolute difference in durability between 6AT and 8AT. Which is more durable depends on the specific vehicle model, manufacturing process, use conditions and maintenance.

1. The relationship between gear and performance

The number of gears is an important factor affecting the performance of gearbox. Generally speaking, the more gears, the better the shift smoothness, fuel economy and performance of the gearbox. Because more gears mean that the gearbox can match the engine speed and load more finely, thus achieving more efficient power transmission and lower fuel consumption.

2. Misunderstanding of gear selection

However, this does not mean that the higher the gear, the better. In actual driving, the choice of gear should be flexibly adjusted according to the road conditions and the actual situation of the vehicle. Choosing a low gear can provide greater power output, which is suitable for situations that require higher power such as acceleration and climbing; Choosing a high gear can provide higher driving speed and lower rotating speed, which is suitable for high-speed cruising and fuel-saving driving. Therefore, the best balance point should be found in gear selection, which should not only ensure that the engine is in a suitable speed range, but also ensure that the power output and running speed of the vehicle can meet the actual demand.

3. Correct gear selection method

The correct gear selection method includes observing the engine tachometer, feeling the acceleration response and driving smoothness of the vehicle, etc. When the gear is properly selected, the engine speed should be within the recommended range, neither too high nor too low; At the same time, the acceleration response and driving smoothness of the vehicle should also reach the best state. If the engine speed is too high or too low, or the vehicle accelerates slowly or is stuck, it is necessary to adjust the gear in time to ensure the normal operation of the vehicle.

Among domestic cars, Chery, Geely, FAW, Great Wall, SAIC and many other car companies are actively developing and applying 8AT technology, and have achieved remarkable results. Among them, the 8AT gearbox independently developed by Chery Automobile is the first high-end automatic gearbox with complete intellectual property rights in China, and its technical level and market performance are in the leading position in the industry.

Chery 8AT technology highlights：

• The 8AT gearbox independently developed by Chery Automobile is the first high-order automatic gearbox with complete intellectual property rights in China.
• The gearbox has the characteristics of super smoothness and high performance, and the gear shifting is smooth, and the highest mechanical efficiency reaches 96%.
• It has not only experienced global development and verification, but also achieved global quality, which forms a perfect combination with Chery’s 2.0TGDI Kunpeng power engine.

Application vehicle type：

• Tiggo 8L: As Chery’s self-developed flagship SUV, Tiggo 8L is equipped with this 8AT gearbox, providing users with unparalleled power and control experience.
• Star Way Lingyun: The 2024 Star Way Lingyun adopted the power combination of 8AT transmission and 2.0T engine on the 400T model, which significantly improved the performance and driving experience of the model.

To sum up, Chery Automobile has outstanding performance in 8AT technology of domestic cars, and its self-developed 8AT gearbox is in the leading position in the industry in terms of technical characteristics, market performance and user feedback. Of course, with the continuous progress of automobile technology and the intensification of market competition, other domestic automobile companies are also actively catching up and surpassing. It remains to be seen who will become the leader of 8AT technology in domestic cars in the future.

A few days ago, I learned that Dongfeng Yipai e π 008 will be officially listed on June 14. As the second model under the Dongfeng Yipai brand, Dongfeng Yipai e π 008 is positioned as a medium and large SUV, providing range extension and pure electric power. It has been pre-sold on April 25. The pre-sale price range is 200,000 – 250,000 yuan.

From the perspective of the product itself, the appearance design of Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 is relatively simple. The traditional front grille area is integrated with many dot matrix light sources, and it is equipped with a luminous brand logo and a through-type headlight group. After lighting, it can present a rather cool lighting effect and enhance the technological attributes of the vehicle. On this basis, the Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 front surrounds both sides with an integrated blackened air diversion groove design, so that the wide and full front face does not appear too calm.

Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 has the body profile of a mainstream SUV, and the hidden door handle, low wind resistance aluminum alloy rim and other design elements that are commonly used in new energy are not absent. At the same time, the lower edge of the door is integrated into black decoration, which weakens the heaviness of the vehicle to a certain extent. In addition, the rear tail light group of Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 is also a through style, and the light sources on the left and right sides are arranged in dotted lines, which looks normal. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 are 5002/1972/1732mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 3025mm.

Entering the car, the Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 is equipped with an independently designed floating LCD instrument and a large-size central control screen. The steering wheel shape is basically the same as the Dongfeng Yipai eπ 007, and it is covered with a two-color material, with a correction logo at 12 o’clock. On this basis, some areas of the Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 are covered with wood grain trims, which helps to enhance the sense of class in the cockpit.

Due to the Huai block design, the design layout of the central channel functional area of Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 is quite regular, with the upper layer designed with horizontal double cup slots and mobile phone wireless charging panels, etc.; the lower layer is hollowed out to further enhance the storage space in the car.

Positioned as a medium and large SUV, the Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 adopts a cockpit layout of 2 + 2 + 2 with a total of six seats. The first and second rows of seats provide heating/ventilation functions, and the third row of seats is equipped with independent cup holders, charging ports, reading lights, etc. At the same time, the Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 third row of seats supports reclining, and the trunk volume can be expanded to 783 liters.

Other configuration parts, Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 provides second-row right-hand small table board, 15.6-inch rear entertainment screen, 20-speaker sound system, high-speed NOA pilot assist driving, remote car transfer, LAPA over-the-horizon memory parking and other functional configurations; while the dual-purpose car refrigerator will not be absent, and the refrigerator can achieve electric sliding before and after the first row to the third row, but it is not expected to be standard in all systems.

In terms of power, the Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 range extension version uses a 1.5-liter engine with a maximum power of 108 kW as a range extender, and is equipped with a drive motor with a maximum power of 200 kW and a 34.32 kWh group. The pure electric cruising range of the CLTC condition can reach 210 kilometers. The Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 pure electric version also adopts the rear drive form, and the maximum power of the drive motor is 200 kW. With the support of the 82.28 kWh group, the pure electric cruising range of the CLTC condition is 636 kilometers.

Based on product positioning and pre-sale prices, Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 Extended Range Edition is expected to compete with popular SUVs of the same level as Dongfeng Yipai Eπ 008; competitors of Dongfeng Yipai Eπ 008 pure electric version or models such as Direction, FAW-Volkswagen. Nowadays, the competition in the domestic new energy market is quite fierce, and Dongfeng Yipai branding impression and influence are still quite limited. Therefore, if Dongfeng Yipai eπ 008 wants to gain a firm foothold in the market and increase its volume quickly, the official may need to give more sincerity in the final pricing.

　　If home is the power that everyone relies on to move forward, then a car is a moving castle that carries happiness, both immediate life and distant dreams.

　　With the aging of the population and the liberalization of the "three-child policy", coupled with the pandemic changing travel patterns, the MPV market has ushered in the best era. Whoever can run faster will be able to seize the opportunity. On May 7, the industry’s first high-end electric MPV – Landmap Dreamer was officially launched. The seven-seat version is priced at 369,900 yuan – 439,900 yuan, and the private customized version is priced at 639,900 yuan.

　　Lantu carries the dual mission of Dongfeng’s brand upward and exploring new models of independent brand development, which determines that it must continue to innovate and change. Electrification is still a rare label for the growing market segment of MPV. When Sandian and intelligent configuration are full, Lantu dreamers obviously seize the opportunity to redefine luxury MPV, bringing a new mobile and warm home to people with dreams, and at the same time opening up the new category of household pure electric MPV market for the industry, thereby accelerating the replacement of fuel MPV.

　　In the blue ocean of high-end electric MPV, the wave set off by Lantu Dreamers is not only the price of 400,000, but also the value of rejuvenating the vitality of the MPV intelligent electric era.

　　Let everyone become a dreamer

　　According to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, domestic MPV sales reached 1.055 million in 2021, an increase of 0.09% year-on-year, and the market gradually recovered. This is mainly due to the transformation of family demographics brought about by the country’s policy of encouraging fertility.

　　Since 2016, due to the popularity of the "two-child" policy and the liberalization of the "three-child policy", the proportion of multi-population families in China’s overall family population structure has shown a steady upward trend, with the proportion of two-child families rising from 30% in 2013 to about 43% in 2021. With the increase in the number of families, ordinary 5-seat models cannot meet the travel needs of the whole family in different scenarios at the same time, and family cars with 6 seats, 7 seats and more have gradually become the upstart of the automobile market.

　　It is worth noting that China’s automotive industry is currently experiencing major changes unseen in a century. The application of the latest industrial revolution achievements such as 5G, AI, and new energy is developing in depth. Technological upgrades and consumption upgrades are superimposed, causing profound changes and iterations in the automotive market.

　　From the top 10 brand models in the domestic MPV market in March this year, the mid-to-high-end models of joint venture brands located in the comfort zone are almost all fuel vehicles, while they lack a representative model of the intelligent electric era.

　　With the younger and more family-oriented mainstream consumer groups, users will consider family cars that improve their quality of life with more mature and rational consumption concepts. Practical comfort, versatility, and high value and high quality have become the decisive factors for car purchases, providing each family member with a warm space outside of home.

　　IKEA, a new category "Mobile Living Room MPV" with more space, more comfortable driving experience, more technology and intelligence, and unlimited environmental protection has become a personalized and differentiated market demand. After accurate insight, Landmap launched the second landmark strategic model in a timely manner – Landmap Dreamer. As the pioneer of intelligent electric luxury MPV, Landmap Dreamer fills the existing MPV in terms of electric, intelligent, performance, comfort and luxury.

　　Lu Fang, CEO and CTO of Lantu Automobile, said in a bold statement, "Lantu Dreamers are a new species born from different backgrounds. They will create a new category of electric MPVs, and will also establish a new benchmark for electric luxury MPVs, leading MPVs into a new era of electrification and intelligence."

　　It is understood that since the pre-sale started on April 7, Lantu Dreamer has received more than 4,000 orders and is expected to start delivery in the third quarter of this year. It turns out that the electric luxury MPV segment is not without demand, but lacks ceiling-level products.

　　What the new category should look like

　　Compared with traditional MPVs, the Landmap Dreamer offers five advantages: performance, space, luxury, intelligence, and safety. It also has seven-seat models and private customization models to choose from. It is a well-deserved super MPV, establishing a new standard for electric luxury MPVs, and has great opportunities to seize market opportunities.

　　According to Lu Fang, Lantu Dreamer was born in ESSA’s native high-end intelligent electric architecture, with four advantages of natural intelligence, extreme safety, arbitrary control, and all-round comfort. The new generation power system "Lanhai Power" of Lantu Automobile is equipped with the ESSA architecture, which can support high-performance pure electric and intelligent multi-mode drive two power schemes, which are respectively applied to the 0-carbon version of Lantu Dreamer and the low-carbon version of Lantu Dreamer.
