Xiaomi did it.

On April 17, Shanghai Taibo, a car networking company, announced that it had won the B round of financing from Xiaomi Group, and the two sides will carry out in-depth cooperation in the future to jointly explore the car networking market. This is also an important exploration in the field of car networking after Xiaomi extended its business tentacles to hotels and real estate.

In the mobile phone market, Xiaomi is facing increasingly fierce competition. The strategy of "mobile phone +AIOT" has become another growth engine of Xiaomi, hoping to gradually develop from 2C business to 2B business. In 20 19, under this strategy, Xiaomi took the lead in entering B-end markets such as hotels and real estate. At the same time, Xiaomi has also been paying special attention to the field of car networking. Taber has been focusing on the car networking market, and has formulated "1+ 1+N" in its development strategy, that is, car+mobile phone +N, where n refers to various input and output devices, including smart homes such as headphones, watches, bracelets, televisions and various Internet of Things devices. From the perspective of corporate strategies of both parties, there is a high degree of fit.

It is understood that in the past few years, Xiaomi and Taber have communicated many times. Based on this strategic investment, Xiaomi and Taber will carry out all-round cooperation in software and hardware, voice multi-scene interaction and so on. Xiaomi believes that Xiaomi's voice assistant "Little Love Classmate" will play an important role in the car networking scene.

Shortly before obtaining Xiaomi's strategic investment, Taibo received hundreds of millions of dollars in strategic investment from Dongfeng Motor Group.

The public really wants to

Enter the charging pile industry

Recently, the parts company of Volkswagen and a new energy technology company in Shanghai established Innoway New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. They plan to produce "fast charging piles with flexible energy storage" in China. Literally, it is not difficult to find that the main characteristics of the charging pile that Volkswagen will develop are "flexibility" and "energy storage".

According to the public's expression to the outside world, flexible energy storage charging piles can be installed almost anywhere needed. Compared with ordinary charging piles, this charging pile does not need to plan the space of charging facilities in advance, so the charging piles to be developed by the public will have greater flexibility.

According to reports, this kind of charging pile has higher flexibility than ordinary charging piles because of its movable characteristics. This means that charging piles can be installed anytime and anywhere according to users in different places and users with different frequency of use. This can not only greatly improve the charging efficiency, but also solve the problem that many domestic electric car owners are worried that the charging parking space is occupied by fuel vehicles.

Regarding the energy storage effect of this charging pile, the public explained this. The charging pile has a built-in battery pack, which can store extra energy, indicating that the charging pile is out of the power grid and can run independently by its own stored energy. This can better reduce the operating pressure of the power grid during the peak period. Volkswagen told the outside world that the energy storage device inside the charging pile can use the old batteries eliminated by electric vehicles. This design also makes this charging pile more environmentally friendly.

It is understood that this "flexible energy storage charging pile" developed by Volkswagen will be officially produced in the second half of this year. With the continuous upgrading of electric vehicles, charging piles are also constantly upgrading. Nowadays, in the era of rapid development of electric vehicles, the development of its supporting charging facilities is also an important force to promote the development of electric vehicles.
