Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the recent move by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) in China to solicit opinions on the mandatory national standards for automotive door handle safety, highlighting the growing importance of safety regulations in the rapidly evolving electric vehicle (EV) market [3][10]. Group 1: Historical Context and Design Evolution - The hidden door handle design is not exclusive to EVs, with its origins tracing back to the 1952 Mercedes-Benz 300SL, which featured a unique gullwing door design [4]. - Tesla adopted hidden door handles starting with its first car, the Roadster, in 2008, initially to emphasize a futuristic design and luxury positioning, but later continued this design for brand recognition in mass-market models like Model 3 and Model Y [4][5]. Group 2: Economic and Performance Benefits - Hidden door handles can reduce the drag coefficient by up to 12%, which is significant for improving energy efficiency and extending the driving range of EVs, especially as battery costs account for nearly 40% of total vehicle costs [5]. - The cost of a hidden door handle is approximately 100 yuan, while the equivalent increase in battery costs to achieve the same range improvement could be several hundred to over a thousand yuan, making hidden handles a more economical choice [5][6]. Group 3: Market Trends and Consumer Preferences - Not all EVs utilize hidden door handles; for example, BYD's lower-priced models still use traditional mechanical handles, indicating a strategic choice based on market segment and cost considerations [6][8]. - As battery technology improves, the need for minor range increases (5-10 km) becomes less critical, revealing the drawbacks of hidden handles, such as their complexity and potential durability issues [6][8]. Group 4: Safety and Regulatory Implications - The MIIT's proposed regulations aim to address safety concerns related to hidden door handles, which have been criticized for their lack of redundancy in safety features, particularly in scenarios where power is lost [9][10]. - The previous standards established in 2014 did not adequately cover the unique challenges posed by hidden door handles, necessitating updated regulations to enhance safety and reliability [9][10]. Group 5: Future Considerations - As the market for EVs matures, the novelty of hidden door handles as a distinguishing feature may diminish, prompting manufacturers to reassess their value and practicality in consumer preferences [11]. - The evolving regulatory landscape may lead to increased costs for hidden door handles, compelling manufacturers to evaluate their design choices in light of safety, cost, and consumer demand [10][11].

Core Viewpoint - The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) is seeking public opinions on the mandatory national standard for "Automotive Door Handle Safety Technical Requirements," following recent regulations on advanced driver assistance systems, indicating a significant move towards enhancing automotive safety standards in China [1][11]. Group 1: Design and Functionality - Hidden door handles, while criticized for being counterintuitive, have become a mainstream feature in electric vehicles (EVs) over recent years, despite their historical use dating back to luxury models like the 1952 Mercedes-Benz 300SL [1][2]. - Tesla has consistently used hidden door handles since the launch of its first car, the Roadster, initially to emphasize futuristic design and luxury positioning, but this design has been adopted by other EV manufacturers as well [2][3]. Group 2: Economic and Performance Benefits - The adoption of hidden door handles can reduce the drag coefficient by up to 12%, which is economically beneficial in the context of rising battery costs, as it can enhance vehicle range without the need for additional battery capacity [2][3]. - The cost of a hidden door handle is approximately 100 yuan when purchased in bulk, significantly lower than the cost of increasing battery capacity, which could add hundreds to thousands of yuan to the vehicle's price [3][6]. Group 3: Safety and Regulatory Concerns - The complexity of hidden door handles, which require multiple steps for operation, raises concerns about durability and safety, especially in the event of component failure [4][6]. - The MIIT's proposed new standards aim to address safety redundancies and structural integrity, which have been lacking in previous regulations, particularly regarding the performance of hidden door handles in emergency situations [7][11]. Group 4: Market Trends and Consumer Preferences - Not all EV manufacturers are adopting hidden door handles; for instance, BYD uses them in higher-end models but retains traditional handles in more affordable options, reflecting a strategic choice based on market positioning and consumer demand [3][6]. - As the market for EVs matures, the novelty of hidden door handles as a distinguishing feature may diminish, prompting manufacturers to reassess their value and consider consumer preferences more closely [11].

ari 8 e ● e . . . . � . . e e . . 0 8 ..... 作者 | 王小娟 编辑 | 柴旭晨 在外界的一片观望中，小米YU7终于来了。 5月22日，时值小米15周年，小米集团创始人、董事长雷军用两个小时发布一系列战略产品，以此来作为小米15周年的新起点。而其中最被关注的，还是玄 戒O1芯片与新车小米YU7。尽管没有公布小米YU7的价格，也没有开启小定，但小米YU7依旧是整个发布会的高潮。 不过，在这场发布会上，雷军并没有直接回应最近以来外界对小米造车的一系列质疑。但一切并非丝滑地过去了，改变在悄然发生。 回溯来看，在小米SU7的第一场发布会上，雷军用近三个小时讲述在造车方面新技术，安全只是其中的一部分。但这次YU7发布会上，安全成了压轴大戏。 一个多小时里，提了十数次"安全"，在安全硬件方面，还提到了铠甲笼式钢铝混合车身等。 而在最近事故争议点上的辅助驾驶，也有所改变。这一次，雷军先是介绍了这一次YU7上搭载的辅助驾驶的硬件。然后又强调，小米YU7将全系标配激光雷 达。 作为对比，激光雷达在探测距离以及异形障碍物识别精度方面，相比没有搭载的版本有所提高。在此之前，发生事故的车型为 ...

经历交通事故风波的小米，终于回归大众视野。 5月22日，在15周年的战略发布会上，小米首先发布了制程领先的3nm手机芯片玄戒O1，并在最后推出了小米汽车的第二款产品YU7。 行业中似乎曾上演与小米相似的节奏与步调。2023年，华为和赛力斯联手推出的问界M7，一直处于销量低谷，不见起色。9月，华为带着自研麒麟芯片与改 款问界M7亮相。 芯片领域的关键技术突破，打碎了问界销量的低靡局面。改款问界M7上市后，同月大定数量便超过3万辆。由此，问界乃至鸿蒙智行共同走向上升趋势。 今天的小米，几乎就在复刻这样的道路：借助核心技术突破带来的重大势能，让全线产品走上增长道路，重振汽车业务的低垂情绪。 小米YU7，设计、续航、安全都是重点 设计一直是小米汽车的重要锚点，小米YU7的产品介绍也是从设计开始的。 车身比例、颜色以及细节设计都与SU7保持了一致风格，唯一的大不同，便是YU7做了大量的空气动力学设计。全车共有40处风阻优化设计，以及10组贯穿 式风道、19个风口来整理全车气流。 最终，小米YU7的风阻系数达到了0.245Cd，而空气动力学优化带来的最直接表现便是续航里程的提升。 小米15周年战略发布会 小米YU7共分三 ...
