3月18日，长城汽车董事长魏建军发布视频，对近期市场热炒的长城固态电池欧洲认证及准入消息予以澄 清。他表示，这个消息并不准确。长城的固态电池处于技术开发及验证阶段，当前重点是进行材料及体系的 开发和验证，他预测固态电池具备商业价值上车至少也需要五年。同时，他也指出，固态电池是一项新技 术，希望大家理性看待它的发展。 魏建军用了一个形象的比喻解释技术难度：传统动力电池的锂离子传导如同"人在水里游泳"，而固态电池要 让离子在固态物质中移动，必须找到特殊的固态电解质。这看似简单的介质转换，实则涉及材料科学、电化 学、制造工艺等多维度的系统性重构。 魏建军指出，目前行业内主要有硫化物、氧化物、聚合物三种技术路线。以主流的硫化物为例，它遇水会释 放剧毒的硫化氢，在空气中极不稳定，制备需要全程无水环境，生产成本极高，且安全问题还没有突破。除 此之外，固态电池还存在固固界面阻抗、寿命、高压运行等许多核心问题有待攻关。 不过，魏建军也强调，固态电池相比液态电池理论上具有更高的能量密度和安全性，是行业公认的下一代动 力电池技术。长城汽车在固态电池领域以硫化物路线为主，在材料、工艺设备方面坚持自研与合作并行。 2023年长城已经 ...

（图片来源：摄图网） 近日，福特CEO吉姆·法利在澳大利亚为期三天的出访行程中，亲自试驾了两款中国插电混动皮卡：比亚迪 Shark 6和长城炮Alpha(国内称"山海炮")。与此同时，他还对比测试了丰田兰德酷路泽LC70、福特Ranger、 丰田Hilux等经典硬派车型。 近年来，中国皮卡在技术、设计和市场定位上不断创新突破。以比亚迪Shark 6和长城山海炮为例，它们搭 载了先进的插电混动技术，既拥有皮卡车型的强大动力和载货能力，又具备电动车的节能环保和智能科技优 势。在外观设计上，它们摒弃了传统皮卡的粗犷风格，更加时尚大气，符合现代消费者的审美需求。 法利在试驾后坦率承认，中国皮卡具备可观的市场竞争力，但强调它们与传统燃油皮卡属于完全不同的类 型。在他看来，比亚迪Shark和长城山海炮精准适配了"有皮卡使用需求、追求电动化属性，但无高频重载、 重型拖拽使用场景"的消费群体。长城山海炮更是被法利视为进入该细分市场的一款强劲竞争产品。 不过，法利也强调福特和丰田等传统汽车巨头仍然拥有明显优势。因为这些公司在工作型皮卡领域拥有数十 年经验积累，在底盘技术、拖拽性能、载重适配等核心领域具备短期内难以被复刻的优势。 ...
