The motor speed is 30,000 rpm, leading the industry. Hyper GT Quark Electric Drive 2.0 will reshape the V8 legend.

In the history of the global automotive industry, the roar of the engine has always been a symbol of speed and passion.

From the first revolution of the steam engine to the rumble of the internal combustion engine, and then to the silence of the electric motor, each technological leap has accompanied the redefinition of the human limit of speed. Nowadays, with the wave of new energy sweeping the world, the prelude to a power revolution is slowly unfolding.

In this revolution, automotive companies are constantly refreshing their highest achievements. Hyper HL, with its Quark Electric Drive 2.0 system, has made the three core indicators of motor speed, efficiency, and power density leading globally. Especially the motor speed has reached 30,000 rpm, surpassing many new energy automotive companies at one stroke.

Therefore, Quark Electric Drive 2.0 also endows Hyper HL with a powerful horsepower that surpasses the V8 engine.

This not only represents the extreme exploration of China's automotive companies in electric drive technology, but also a bold imagination for the future travel mode. Different from the roar of the engine, its unique silence and environmental protection bring consumers a new driving experience.

The outstanding performance of Quark Electric Drive 2.0 has also been officially certified. Recently, the New Energy Inspection Center of China Automotive Technology and Research Center awarded Hyper the "Premium Drive High-Quality Electric Drive" certificate. Quark Electric Drive 2.0 has passed numerous tests and stood out.

With the advent of Hyper HL equipped with Quark Electric Drive 2.0, this technical competition in new energy vehicles will also extend from the competition in battery technology to an all-round competition in motor efficiency.

Electric Drive Efficiency, the "Must-Compete Project" for New Energy Vehicles

2024 is the starting year for automotive companies to compete for the performance and efficiency of electric drives. Starting from Xiaomi's mass production of a 21,000-rpm motor, companies such as Zeekr and Huawei have continuously brought new breakthroughs in the内卷 of rotational speed. The improvement of motor efficiency has become a key indicator to demonstrate the technical strength and market competitiveness of enterprises.

Recently, Hyper once again dropped a heavy bomb in the electric drive competition - Quark Electric Drive 2.0.

Quark Electric Drive 2.0 will be equipped on the pure electric version of the new vehicle Hyper HL, achieving a mass-produced motor efficiency of 98.5%, which is a shocking figure in the new energy vehicle industry.

At the same time, the power density of the motor of this product reaches an astonishing 13kW/kg, which is more than twice the industry average level, and the motor speed even reaches an astonishing 30,000 rpm. It should be noted that Xiaomi's V8 motor speed is only 27,200 rpm, and it has not yet been mass-produced.

As soon as Hyper makes a move, it shows a profound foundation in vehicle manufacturing, pulling the motor speed, efficiency, and power density to a new high point at once. What is more worthy of mention is that Quark Electric Drive 2.0 has obtained official certification.

Recently, the New Energy Inspection Center of China Automotive Technology and Research Center officially released the 2025 version of the New Energy Vehicle Electrical Safety Technology Verification System (hereinafter referred to as "NESTA 2025 Version").

The NESTA 2025 Version has been iterated in terms of test depth, breadth, and rigor. The verification items have been expanded from the original 20 to 33, with a wider coverage. The various electrical safety risk scenarios and the corresponding evaluation rules have been refined. At the same time, the verification items are further divided into three levels: "mandatory items", "optional items", and "challenge items".

In such a strict technical verification, Quark Electric Drive 2.0 still stands out and has obtained the second batch of "Premium Drive High-Quality Electric Drive" certificates issued by the New Energy Inspection Center of China Automotive Technology and Research Center.

Of course, whether it is the leading of various data or the winning of various awards, it has become a normal matter for Quark Electric Drive 2.0. This technology is not just a PPT presentation, but a real mass-produced and on-board technology. Consumers can not only feel its power from the data, but also feel the shock at the practical level after the real vehicle experience.

For example, the Hyper HL equipped with Quark Electric Drive 2.0 can increase the cruising range by 50 km without increasing the battery. That is to say, if the Hyper HT 825 ultra-high voltage version is equipped with this technology, the cruising range can be increased to 875 km. If the range-extended model is used, even without a large fuel tank, the cruising range can be increased by 150 km. This is a hidden benefit brought by the technological upgrade for consumers.

The high-performance four-wheel drive model equipped with Quark Electric Drive 2.0 can even achieve a cruising range comparable to that of the two-wheel drive model, achieving a perfect balance between performance and cruising range.

The reason why Hyper can achieve a leading electric drive performance in the industry is that it independently masters the core technology. In the field of new energy three-electric systems, Hyper has achieved comprehensive independent research and production.

Quark Electric Drive 2.0 is produced in the Ruipai Intelligent Ecological Electric Drive Factory. In January this year, the factory was completed and put into operation, and the M25 Super Electric Drive was launched, with a rotational speed of 22,000 rpm, which was also the highest mass-produced motor speed in the world at that time.

The Ruipai Electric Drive Factory has a total investment of 2.16 billion yuan and covers an area of 104,000 square meters. It is expected that by 2025, the factory can achieve an annual output of 400,000 sets of IDU electric drive system assemblies, as well as 100,000 sets of motors and electronic control systems for the GMC hybrid electromechanical coupling system.

In order to make the mass production of electric drive products more smooth, Hyper has created the RTS super process in the electric drive factory, including a variety of advanced manufacturing processes such as ultra-high precision shaft and gear grinding process, high-speed wire forming and winding manufacturing process, ultra-flexible flat wire assembly process, and ultra-high precision rotor dynamic balance process.

Quark Electric Drive 2.0 is manufactured in these cutting-edge processes. In addition to the manufacturing process, the secret to the excellent performance of Quark Electric Drive 2.0 lies in the use of a material. Hyper has realized the mass production and use of this material on Quark Electric Drive 2.0 from scratch.

This is the amorphous alloy material, and the Hyper HL is also equipped with the world's first mass-produced amorphous alloy electric drive.

Amorphous Alloy, Triggering the "Energy Efficiency Revolution" in Electric Drives

After the maximum efficiency of the mass-produced motor reaches 98%, it is close to the physical limit. Every 0.1% increase is a world-class problem, and its difficulty is comparable to manufacturing a lithography machine.

The automotive industry has almost tried every way to optimize the motor performance, such as using ultra-thin silicon steel sheets, increasing the reluctance torque, reducing the conductor size, optimizing the slot to reduce the AC loss, etc., but the efficiency improvement is very limited.

It was not until Hyper used the amorphous alloy material in Quark Electric Drive 2.0 that the motor efficiency began to continue to break through.

The amorphous alloy material is called "liquid metal" and also "metallic glass". It has both the characteristics of metals and the fluidity of liquids, as well as excellent properties such as high strength, high hardness, corrosion resistance, superplasticity, and soft magnetism. Therefore, it is widely used in many fields including aerospace, medical, and energy.

In simple terms, this material can not only be used to manufacture medical devices such as heart stents and vascular stents, but also can be used in the follow-up systems and vacuum-sealed transmissions in rockets, satellites, aircraft, tanks, and radars, as well as the connection of robot arms.

As the most advanced soft magnetic material in the world today, the use of amorphous alloy material in motors has also triggered an "energy efficiency revolution".

Compared with the traditional process, the cooling speed of the amorphous alloy material is as high as 1 million ℃/s, which is 1,000 times faster than the iron-based silicon steel material. Because it is very easy to magnetize, the magnetic permeability of the amorphous alloy material is 20 - 100 times that of the ordinary silicon steel sheet. At the same time, its thickness is only 1/4 of the thickness of the standard A4 paper. Compared with the traditional silicon steel sheet, the material thickness is reduced by 90%, and the iron loss is reduced by more than 50%.

Therefore, when the amorphous alloy material is used in the motor, the motor efficiency can break through the material limitation of the traditional silicon steel sheet and reach 98.5%, infinitely approaching the level of the room-temperature superconducting motor.

It is easy to show the figures, but the research and development process is full of difficulties. In order to create this revolutionary product, Hyper starts from the design, process, and structure, independently researches and develops the new material patent process, and realizes the mass production of the world's first amorphous alloy electric drive.

The energy conversion efficiency of the amorphous alloy material is higher, so it can increase the cruising range by 50 km without increasing the battery. Although 50 km may not seem like a lot, Hyper has been the first to realize the application of the amorphous alloy material on the motor. In the future, after this material is popularized in China's new energy vehicles, the effect will be extremely considerable.

Based on the current data, the number of new energy vehicles in China is about 24.72 million. Calculated based on each vehicle traveling 10,000 km per year, if all use the amorphous alloy material, it can travel an additional 18.5 billion kilometers, equivalent to 4.62 million circles around the Earth's equator. It can save 90 billion kWh of electricity per year, equivalent to saving 26 million tons of coal and reducing 68 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions.

More intuitively, 90 billion kWh is equivalent to the annual power generation of the Three Gorges Power Station. Hyper has taken a small step, but in fact, it is a big step forward for China's new energy vehicle electric drive technology.

Hyper's breakthrough in amorphous alloy materials has a demonstration significance not only limited to the new energy vehicle industry. The application of amorphous alloy materials has always been a technical problem that countries around the world want to overcome.

China's amorphous alloy research and development started in the 1970s. Currently, China's amorphous alloy researchers account for 2/3 of the world's total. The research and development level has exceeded that of Japan and the European Union, and is comparable to that of the United States, becoming the world's first echelon.

However, there is still a lack of leading enterprises with an international level. The research and development capabilities of domestic laboratories are not strongly related to enterprises and the market, and the bottleneck of large-scale industrial application of amorphous alloys has not been broken.

The Quark Electric Drive 2.0 equipped on the Hyper HL can already be used as a model for the large-scale application of amorphous alloy materials in China. The mass production of this technology has also opened a new door for Chinese researchers in the large-scale industrial application of amorphous metal materials.

Of course, back to Quark Electric Drive 2.0, its breakthroughs in motor efficiency, power density, and rotational speed will also empower the Hyper brand, setting off a luxurious storm belonging to technological breakthroughs.

Conclusion: The Upward Breakthrough of the Hyper Brand

China's automotive industry has always been large but not strong. One is the lack of high-end brands, and the other is the inability to master core technologies. This means that China's automobiles often find it difficult to compete with foreign brands with a long history and advanced technology in the international market, and also limits China's automobiles' influence and profitability in the global market.

However, the wave of electrification and intelligence has allowed China's automotive industry to overtake on a curve. China's market share of power batteries in the global market exceeds 60%. The three-electric technology of China's automotive companies has been exported overseas in reverse, and the intelligent driving ability of China's automotive companies is also firmly in the first echelon globally.

More new brands in the Chinese market have also emerged to impact the high-end market. The Hyper brand was born under such a background.

The Hyper brand was officially released in September 2022. It is a luxury brand in the new energy era painstakingly created by GAC Group. From the successive appearances of pure electric supercars such as Hyper SSR, Hyper GT, and HT, in just two years, the Hyper brand has mastered a large number of pioneering, exclusive, and leading core technologies, becoming one of the few brands in China with top EV + ICV technology.

Nowadays, Quark Electric Drive 2.0 is equipped on Hyper HL. Whether it is the "land yacht" posture of this new vehicle, the "luxurious living room" space, or the 127.5° NASA-level golden zero-pressure double zero-gravity seat, it makes competing models pale in comparison.

In terms of intelligence, the Hyper brand has also upgraded the new vehicle to the NDA4.0 high-level intelligent driving system, achieving the industry's first intelligent driving through the toll station, creating a smooth journey from the highway to the urban area, and traveling thousands of miles a day with 0 takeovers.

The dense loading of high-end technologies also shows that the Hyper brand is a concentrated display of GAC Group's technological innovation strength, and the Hyper brand is bringing consumers the ultimate travel experience.

As the fulcrum for GAC Group's upward breakthrough, in the future, Hyper will continue to撬动 the ceiling of products and the market, and take technology and luxury as the core competitiveness, leading China's high-end automotive brands to create a new chapter in the era and making a new contribution to the high-end and intelligent development of China's automotive industry.
