56 Baba Mall CEO Liang Zhenming

56 Baba Mall CEO Liang Zhenming said: China’s express delivery business has more than 40 billion pieces per year, which has been ranked first in the world for four consecutive years, but China’s total logistics cost as a percentage of GDP is much higher than that of developed countries, such as the ratio in 2018 16%, less than 10% in the US, Japan and Germany. At the same time, the National Development and Reform Commission clearly stipulated that in 2020, the entire ratio must drop by another 1% from the current 16%, so there is still much room for the development of China's logistics industry.

Fan Duanwei, Deputy Minister of Transportation and Logistics Department of China Merchants and Deputy General Manager of Sinotrans

Fan Duanwei, deputy director of China Merchants Transportation Logistics Division and deputy general manager of Sinotrans Changhang, said: "As a logistics company, we are more concerned about the future landing scenarios of smart cars. From the perspective of technology and industry research, we believe that private car travel and shared passenger transport Barge transportation and freight logistics are likely to become the three main application scenarios of autonomous driving. In the future, it will gradually land from low difficulty areas (closed low-speed application environment) to medium and high difficulty areas (highways and complex urban roads)." He believes that The most realistic application scenario of intelligent driving is still unmanned docks, such as Xiaolongshan, Qingdao, Ningbo Zhoushan Island and other unmanned docks. Because the application scenarios and application environments are relatively fixed and closed, it is convenient for the realization of autonomous driving application scenarios. At the same time, smart trucks are the fastest commercial application scenarios for autonomous driving technology.

So, how do logistics companies view the impact of autonomous driving? Fan Duanwei said that the four core issues considered by logistics companies are: First, how to reduce operating costs, operating costs mainly include fuel consumption, labor, bridge tolls, vehicle waiting, vehicle depreciation and other factors; second is a safe driving environment; third is exhaust Emissions; the fourth is road congestion. Therefore, the fundamental purpose of logistics companies to apply self-driving cars is still to reduce costs and increase efficiency, and logistics companies are more interested in self-driving cars to change the working environment of driver groups.

Autonomous vehicles will begin commercial operation in 2020

Li Xiangping, Executive Deputy General Manager of Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd.

According to Li Xiangping, executive deputy general manager of Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd., this year, Dongfeng launched the L4 autonomous driving logistics solution and established an unmanned intelligent logistics distribution system covering trunk logistics, feeder logistics, and transportation platforms.

Leading conditions. He believes: "Smart commercial vehicles have three distinctive characteristics: First, smart commercial vehicles are deeply integrated with scenes, there are many application scenarios for smart vehicles, and product requirements include operation processes and operation requirements are very different. The customization needs of the sub-markets should be highly valued. Second, the cross-border integration of vehicle models, in the future, intelligent commercial vehicles will truly achieve product as a service, so the traditional boundaries of intelligent commercial vehicles and construction machinery and transportation robots will be broken. Products in this field will achieve cross-border integration. Third, the commercial value of smart cars and commercial vehicles is huge, so it is reasonable to believe that autonomous driving commercial vehicles in some scenarios around 2020 will be the first to achieve commercial operation in the world."

Li Guiping, CEO and President of CIMC Vehicles (Group) Co., Ltd.

According to Li Guiping, CEO and President of CIMC Vehicles (Group) Co., Ltd., there are about 30 million semi-trailers in the United States, Europe, and China. Therefore, semi-trailers occupy an important position in highway transportation in a country. But China's semi-trailer standards are relatively backward. In 2004, China issued the first-generation national standard, which was 50 years behind the US semi-trailer standards. China's first-generation national standard is rough, simple, and full of loopholes. A national standard with many loopholes will cause many dangers. The second-generation national standard 1589-2016 was successfully announced. This generation of national standard fully refers to the EU standard and the auxiliary national standard 7258-2017. It further stipulates the safety of the semi-trailer's exercising mechanism. The combination of these two national standards can guide China's first The second-generation national standard gave birth to China's second-generation semi-trailer. China's second-generation semi-trailers are extremely similar to European semi-trailers.

"Now, China's semi-trailers have almost no sensors, nor Internet of Things, and intelligent network devices. In the next three years, the semi-trailers will implement intelligent network devices to improve fleet operating efficiency and vehicle safety." He added.
