At the Science and Technology Awards Conference of the Chinese Society of Automotive Engineers, Great Wall Motors' "Key Technologies and Applications of Hybrid 4WD Intelligent Off road Series Passenger Cars" project won the Special Prize of Science and Technology Award. It is reported that this is the first time that the special prize of the Science and Technology Award has been awarded to hybrid technology, and the evaluation mechanism of the China Society of Automotive Engineers Science and Technology Award is extremely strict. The Great Wall Motors Hi4 technology system can stand out, fully demonstrating its technological height.

Great Wall Motors' Hi4 technology system focuses on the pain points of using new energy vehicles in all scenarios. It has independently built four hybrid four-wheel drive architectures and nine powertrain systems, comprehensively improving the performance boundaries and user experience of new energy products. Moreover, this technical system inherits the wisdom of Dujiangyan Irrigation Project for thousands of years, and uses modern thinking to interpret the traditional philosophy of "guiding according to the situation and following the trend". Specifically, the Great Wall Hi4 can achieve real-time torque distribution and active power optimization through the iTVC intelligent torque control system, dynamically adjusting the vehicle's driving logic and energy efficiency output to the optimal state, and providing users with excellent driving experience in various road conditions.

In addition to "guiding and following the trend", Dujiangyan Irrigation Project also aims to "benefit all the people", which has been popular for thousands of years. The Hi4 technology system of Great Wall Motors is based on the original intention of "universal technology", and through expandable and diverse configurations, it has built a complete product matrix, covering the full range of needs from urban SUVs to extreme off-road scenarios. Moreover, the Great Wall Motors Hi4 has overcome multiple core technological bottlenecks, making advanced technology no longer exclusive to a few people. For example, the Hi4 technology system is the world's first dual motor multi gear series parallel four-wheel drive architecture, breaking the technical bottleneck that traditional series parallel cannot achieve four-wheel drive, effectively accelerating the process of "universal four-wheel drive".

In addition, Great Wall Motors' Hi4 technology system has achieved significant breakthroughs in off-road intelligence. Its independently developed off-road intelligent recognition control system can accurately recognize 32 off-road scenarios and 3 urban scenarios, with a recognition accuracy of up to 99%, effectively solving the risk of misuse of traditional modes. Great Wall Motors is also the world's first off-road dedicated battery pack, which combines full temperature range power release and high-level protection capabilities, with safety performance reaching the international leading level, adding a safety guarantee to users' off-road travel process.

Focusing on the domestic market, Great Wall Motors' technology system is driving the rapid expansion of the hardcore new energy off-road market. From 2020 to 2024, Great Wall Motors' hardcore off-road market share has risen from 10% to 52%, driving the overall market share of domestic brands from 26.9% to 80%. In the global market, Great Wall Motors products have been exported to 19 countries including Australia and New Zealand, continuously expanding their global influence.

Great Wall Motors' creation of the Hi4 technology system is not only an innovative technological breakthrough, but will also help push the Chinese automotive industry towards the direction of core technology self-reliance. Next, Great Wall Motors will continue to increase its research and development investment, constantly iterate its own technology, and promote the transformation of China's automotive industry from a manufacturing powerhouse to a technology and brand powerhouse.
