In recent years, with the rapid development of new energy vehicles, many people have focused their attention on new energy vehicles. However, a well-known automobile giant recently announced its withdrawal from internal combustion engines. This is the famous Volvo. Many people Everyone is asking what to think about Volvo's exit? Are fuel vehicles going to become history?

Are fuel vehicles going to become history

Will Volvo completely withdraw from internal combustion engines?

According to reports, Volvo, a car company with a history of nearly a century, announced that to achieve full electrification in 2030, the company will transfer its 33% stake in the powertrain company Aurobay to Geely Holding Group and will officially withdraw from the research and development of internal combustion engines. Manufacture. Volvo and large multinational automobile groups such as Daimler, Audi, Nissan, and Hyundai have mentioned that they will focus on electrification transformation and stop or stop the research and development of internal combustion engines in some areas. In addition, many countries and cities have also announced timetables for banning the sale of fuel vehicles.

In 1876, a salesman born in a small town in Germany and dropped out of middle school started the journey of the modern automobile industry. This year, 44-year-old Nicholas August Otto improved the internal combustion engine and created a new four-stroke internal combustion engine that uses gas. Six years later, Daimler, an engineer who left Otto, and his friend Maybach introduced the internal combustion engine into the transportation field. In October 1885, Carl Benz installed the previously developed two-stroke gasoline engine on a three-wheeled vehicle, the prototype of the modern automobile.

The engine that Benz built still survives

The internal combustion engine has been the "jewel" of the automotive industry for over a century. However, the automotive industry is abandoning internal combustion engines under the electrification wave.

According to data from CleanTechnica, global electric vehicle sales continued to have strong momentum in September this year, increasing 51% year-on-year to over 1.04 million units. This was the first time global electric vehicle sales exceeded 1 million monthly units. In the first nine months of this year, the cumulative sales of global electric vehicles reached 6.8153 million units, accounting for 13% of the global automobile market, of which pure electric vehicles accounted for 9.3%. In 2021, global electric vehicle sales will account for only 8% of total automobile sales.

At present, pure electric car company Tesla has become the world's largest car company in terms of market value, far ahead of Toyota, the car company with the largest sales volume of fuel vehicles in the world.

According to China Business News, BYD announced in March this year that it would stop the production of pure-fuel vehicles, but it still retains plug-in hybrid models. Volkswagen said it will withdraw from the European internal combustion engine market between 2033 and 2035. Audi plans to launch only pure electric vehicles from 2026. Nissan will cease the development of new internal combustion engines in all regions except the United States. Hyundai, the representative of Korean cars, announced the closure of its internal combustion engine R&D center. Most of the employees will be reorganized into an electric vehicle R&D team, while a small number will continue to provide technical services and optimization for existing internal combustion engines.

Are fuel vehicles going to become history?

Although Volvo's wishful thinking has come true, it does not mean that fuel vehicles have completely entered the museum of history. There are many reasons for this. The main reason is, on the one hand, the current new energy vehicle technology still needs to be mature. Although we have now seen many new energy vehicles, the biggest shortcoming of new energy vehicles has never been solved: the battery problem. It is fine to run around in the city in the short term, but once it is used for large-scale, long-distance transportation, the disadvantages of new energy vehicles have been revealed. Even during some short holidays, netizens are jokingly calling electric vehicles "electric daddy." This is because the current technology of new energy vehicles has yet to mature fully, and it is not realistic to replace fuel vehicles in a short time completely.

On the other hand, economic development worldwide still needs to be more balanced. Although we have seen that many developed countries have begun to comprehensively promote the development of new energy vehicles, in many developing countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America, there still needs to be more economic strength to promote the comprehensive replacement of new energy vehicles. Many underdeveloped countries still need to use fuel vehicles that developed countries have eliminated. Therefore, from a global perspective, it may still be unrealistic to fully replace fuel vehicles and make new energy vehicles fully popular.

Therefore, Volvo's withdrawal is a landmark event, but its promotional value is greater than its practical significance. The era of parallel fuel vehicles and new energy may continue for a long time.

Internal combustion engine lubricating oil plays a vital role in engine operation.

Lubrication and anti-friction: Lubricating oil forms an oil film with a certain viscosity and thickness between the metal friction surfaces that move, thereby avoiding direct contact between the metal surfaces and effectively reducing friction and wear. This lubrication reduces friction losses, saves energy, and extends the life of engine parts.

Cooling: During engine operation, a large amount of heat is generated, part of which needs to be dissipated through lubricating oil. Lubricating oil can take away excess heat as the engine runs, ensuring that the engine's operating temperature will not be too high, thereby avoiding damage caused by engine overheating.

Cleaning: Lubricating oil can wash away dust and oil inside the engine and keep engine parts clean. The lubricant of the quality level above API SD also contains metal detergents and ashless dispersants, which can clean metal surfaces, disperse dirt, and keep engine parts clean.
