Team Leader Jin saw that he had no problem and continued: "Secondly, after the modification, the original engine of Rafa was dismantled and replaced with the T9 distributed motor developed by Mr.
Jiang, one per wheel, a total of 4, with a total horsepower of 1,400 horsepower!"
"It's also worth mentioning that the T9 engines are extremely lightweight, weighing 12 kilograms each, so the total weight of the four engines is only 48 kilograms!"
Marcio was shocked. 1400 horses!
48 kg!
What about Rafa's original engine?
800 horses!
357 kg!
This engine alone has reduced the weight by more than 300 kilograms!
Of course, it can't be so simple to calculate, because the battery of an electric car is much heavier than gasoline.
But that's also an exaggeration!
Team Leader Jin continued to introduce, and seemed a little dissatisfied in his words: "Unfortunately, the battery is too heavy.
In order to reduce weight and increase speed, we did not install too many lithium batteries, and the range of this Rafa is only about 800 km. ” Only 800 km?
Marchionne was a little numb, he had just come to buy lithium batteries, but found a lightweight material with excellent performance - manganese steel foam.
Before I could figure out how to talk about this problem, a new distributed T9 motor popped up.
Although the engineers did not provide detailed data on the T9, Marchionne quickly figured out that the T9 performed about twice the horsepower of Tesla's latest electric motor.
And Tesla's latest electric motor weighs up to 30 kg, and the T9 weighs only 12 kg!
You know, Tesla basically represents the most advanced electric car in the world, at least the current Fiat is not as good as Tesla.
Now Jiang Yuan actually used less than half the weight to make twice the performance of Tesla's electric motor.
It's not a little gap, it's a desperate technology generation gap!
Marchionne was blindheaded.
Jiang Yuan's speed of developing breakthrough technology was comparable to that of a robot cat digging into his pocket, and if Rafa flew up the next moment, he wouldn't be surprised.
In any case, he knew that his task had been added to one more point, to grab the production capacity of the T9 motor!
Team Leader Kim went on to talk about a lot of technical details, but unfortunately Marchionne didn't have the attention to listen, he just wanted to see the measured results of this Rafa now.
Once the performance is really as the engineer said, I estimate that I will immediately change the itinerary and continue to stay in China for a while.
Team Leader Kim finally finished his introduction and finally concluded: "The expected 0-100 km/h acceleration time is between 1.5 and 1.8 seconds, and 0-400 km/h is expected to be in under 8 seconds."
Marchionne clenched his fists, 1.5 seconds to 1.8 seconds?
The original Rafa accelerates to 100 km/h in about 2.7 seconds.
You know, there is no normal supercar that can run for 2 seconds.
Those exaggerated results of 1.2 seconds and 0.9 seconds are not at all run by vehicles that can be marketed normally.
Those cars don't even use gasoline, but use fuels like liquid oxygen and space fuel.
It's better to say they're cars than land-driven rockets.
At this point, the test rider activated Rafa.
As the first time he got his hands on the car, the engineer repeatedly told him that he could run into 2 seconds, but he did not dare to accelerate at full speed immediately, but ran a few laps on the side of the track to familiarize himself with the car's performance.
Even so, it was clear to Marchionne that Rafa was much faster and more agile than when it first left the factory, and that was the power of the new technology.
"Look, it's running!"
"Rafa is so handsome, I really want to buy one!"
The rich second generation cheered and picked up their mobile phones to shoot, Jiang Yuan didn't mean to stop it, just stood aside and watched with a smile.
Team Leader Jin was still chattering and complaining: "Actually, this is far from the limit, because we didn't make any adjustments to the shape due to the tight schedule."
"It also had a big impact on performance, for example, the weight ratio of the front and rear bodies after the modification was far less perfect than that of the original Rafa, for example, we didn't have time to carry out wind tunnel tests, and our technical strength was also limited."
"If Ferrari were to build a new supercar using these new technologies, I believe it would be possible to accelerate to 100 km/h in one second."
Marchionne was silent.
Finally, the riders were ready and Rafa was back on the straight.
The engineers checked the vehicle again, and after confirming that there were no accidents, Team Leader Jin asked Jiang Yuandao: "Mr.
Jiang, let's officially start?"

Jiang Yuan smiled: "Let's get started."
Team Leader Jin immediately asked everyone to check again, confirmed that there were no problems with the vehicle, speedometer, and camera, and said to the driver: "Let's get started, stay safe."
The rider made an OK gesture and slowly stopped Rafa on the starting line.
The engineers fell silent.
Marchionne's face was extremely serious.
The rich second generation also found that everyone was serious, knowing that the test was about to officially begin, they all held their breath and raised their mobile phones again to point at Rafa.
Rafa starts instantly.
Like a violent gentleman, Rafa rushed out with a suppressed roar, the electric motor far quieter than the gasoline engine, without the explosions that are hallmark of a supercar.
The speed increased in a very short time, and in two or three breaths it turned into a small red dot in the field of vision.
Soon the results came back.
Acceleration to 100 km/h in 1.5 seconds!
The engineers of the modification team immediately cheered, they never thought that such a murderous sports car was actually modified by themselves!
The rich second generation is speechless, they are all owners who like to play sports cars, so they will come to the track to play, usually know all kinds of data well, 1.5 seconds is too anti-human!
The little fat man who drove the GTR felt that the pores all over his body were open, staring at Rafa greedily and stopping with heat, and he couldn't wait to buy one now.
It's a pity it's too expensive!
His family is rich, but they don't have the money to the point of buying tens of millions of toys casually, and this GTR is a birthday gift that he begged his father to buy for a long time.
Tens of millions of sports cars, don't even think about it!
Besides, he also often plays with cars, so he doesn't know that the money spent on modification to this point must be more than the money spent on buying a car!
He stared at Rafa, his saliva was about to flow, and without thinking about it, he posted the video he just shot to the circle of friends, and the title was very shocking.
"A new record for acceleration of 100 km/h was born!
1.5 seconds!
Think deeply about the boss Jiang Yuan's modified Rafa!
” Jiang Yuan laughed and patted Team Leader Jin, and unscrupulously dug into the foot of the wall and said: "You're doing a great job!
Each person will be rewarded with 100,000 and you will be 500,000.
How about it, do you want to do it with me?
” Earned 500,000 in half a month?
Team Leader Jin was pleasantly surprised: "Absolutely!
But deep thought there is no automotive department. ” Jiang Yuan glanced at Marchionne, who was staying in place, and smiled meaninglessly: "If you want, Shensi Group will soon have a car company!"
Although Marchionne knew the performance of the modified Rafa in advance, his mind was still blank after the actual results came out.
But now that he has calmed down, as a business elite, he has too much experience in dealing with unexpected situations.
After a brief moment of shock, he quickly forced himself to accept this fact and began to think about how Fiat could stand at the head of the wave before the wave of great change in the automotive industry arrived, instead of being knocked into the icy waters!
For a long time, various high-performance cars such as F1 and supercars have not only been a powerful tool to show the company's strength and advertising, but also to explore the development direction of civilian cars.
Although the modified electric puller is still far from the limit, it has clearly shown the direction of the future car.
Electric, distributed electric motor, ultra-lightweight body.
These three key technologies are now in the hands of the Deep Thinking Group, and Fiat must pay enough to get on board.
If you think about it that way, it doesn't seem so unacceptable to trade Ferrari, right?
