BAIC may join hands with CATL to jointly promote CIIC intelligent chassis and advanced technologies

According to news on June 18, BAIC Group and CATL are about to join hands to start a new round of cooperation. According to the Financial Associated Press, the two industry giants have reached a strategic cooperation agreement, covering power battery supply, battery swapping and V2G technology introduction, as well as the joint development and application of new CIIC integrated intelligent chassis products.

One of the highlights of this cooperation is that both parties will jointly promote the development and application of CIIC integrated intelligent chassis. CIIC, the CATL skateboard chassis, passes CTC (Cell to Chassis) technology highly integrates core components such as batteries, electric transmission systems, suspensions, and brakes on the chassis to form an independent and fully functional area. This design not only optimizes the space layout of the vehicle, but also realizes the separation and decoupling of the upper and lower bodies through the reserved electrical and car body interfaces, so that the upper car body can be flexibly replaced according to user needs. It is expected that this innovative chassis system will achieve mass production in the third quarter of this year, injecting new vitality into the new energy vehicle market.

CATL and Vietnamese electric vehicle manufacturer VinFast signed a memorandum of understanding on global strategic cooperation to jointly promote cooperation in projects such as CIIC skateboard chassis. In January this year, Times Intelligence, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CATL, also signed a cooperation agreement with Nezha Automobile in Shanghai. The two parties will work together to develop the CIIC integrated intelligent chassis project. It is expected that the first model equipped with this chassis will be launched as soon as possible. It will be launched on the market at the end of 2024.

The cooperation between BAIC Group and CATL will undoubtedly inject new impetus into the development of the new energy vehicle industry. The technical advantages and resource integration of both parties are expected to promote technological innovation and product upgrades in the new energy vehicle industry, bringing consumers a more convenient and efficient travel experience. At the same time, this also indicates that the two industry giants will create more sparks in future cooperation and jointly create a bright future for the new energy automobile industry.
