Application of AI

The next-generation intelligent network base with AI native as the core 6G is not simply a generational upgrade in communication, but is designed from the bottom up with AI native as the core. It integrates ultra-high-performance connectivity, wide-area perception, and distributed computing into a unified intelligent platform. In the future, it will spawn new application and service models in fields such as intelligent vehicles, intelligent manufacturing, drones, and global interconnection.

   Geely’s New Hybrid Challenges Toyota’s Dominance: 2.22L Per 100 Kilometers!

                In 1997, Toyota launched the Prius, kicking off the era of hybrid vehicles.
                                                                                                                                                                                                 

 

                    For 28 years, Japanese automakers have built an almost insurmountable “fuel efficiency barrier” in the hybrid vehicle sector.  On April 13, 2026, this barrier was breached by a Chinese automaker.

                                                                                                                     2.22L vs 2.52L

                       

           Geely has made a breakthrough. Geely has officially launched the i-HEV Intelligent Hybrid System. The Emgrand model equipped with this system achieved an ultra-low comprehensive fuel consumption of only 2.22 liters per 100 kilometers in real-world tests, setting a new Guinness World Record. The previous record set by the Toyota Prius in 2024 stood at 2.52 liters per 100 kilometers — Geely’s figure is 12% lower.
 
          Another key figure is 48.41%. This represents the thermal efficiency of the i-HEV engine, which has been certified by China Automotive Technology and Research Center (CATARC) as the highest among mass-produced vehicles worldwide. For reference, the thermal efficiency of Toyota’s latest Dual Engine system is approximately 41%.

        It’s not copying Toyota, but surpassing Toyota

                                  Geely i-HEV adopts a completely different technical route from Toyota: motor-driven dominant and oil-electric coordinated.

              Key performance parameters: The motor power reaches 230kW, which is 1.72 times that of Japanese hybrid models; it accelerates from 0 to 30km/h in 1.84 seconds, 18% faster than Japanese hybrid vehicles; it supports pure electric driving below 66km/h, consuming almost no fuel for urban commuting. In addition, the i-HEV is equipped with the AI Cloud Power Large Model for the first time — the system dynamically determines when to use electricity and when to store electricity by acquiring real-time weather and road condition data. Simply put: it gets smarter the more you drive, and saves more fuel in traffic jams.

      Targeting Toyota’s most profitable “safe zone”

                                       

             In 2025, Toyota’s global sales reached 11.3 million units, including 4.43 million hybrid vehicles, accounting for 42% of the total. In the Chinese market, the combined market share of Japan’s top three automakers has dropped to less than 10%. However, backed by its solid hybrid vehicle lineup, Toyota remains the last “safe haven” for joint-venture fuel-powered vehicles.     
                Geely’s i-HEV is precisely targeting this market segment.
 
              The i-HEV system will be first equipped on models including the Xingrui, Xingyue L, Boyue L and Emgrand, with pre-sales starting on April 19. This technology is derived from Geely’s Thor Hybrid platform, which has seen over 1.15 million mass-produced vehicles and accumulated a total driving mileage of nearly 25.4 billion kilometers.

               Conclusion

                   A 28-year-old technological barrier has been broken by a Chinese car with a fuel consumption of 2.22 liters per 100 kilometers. Toyota defined hybrid vehicles with the Prius, while Geely has redefined hybrid technology with i-HEV. This time, Chinese brands have stepped to the forefront of the world.
