Development of Pedestrian Protection for the Qoros 3 Sedan
13th International LS-DYNA Users Conference Session: Occupant Safety Development of Pedestrian Protection for the Qoros 3 Sedan Niclas Brannberg, Pere Fonts, Chenhui Huang, Andy Piper, Roger Malkusson Qoros Automotive Co., Ltd. 15/F HSBC Building IFC, No 8. Century Avenue Shanghai 200120, P.R. China Abstract Pedestrian protection has become an important part of the Euro NCAP consumer test and to achieve a 5-star rating for crash safety, a good rating for the different pedestrian load cases is imperative. It was decided at the very start of the Qoros 3 Sedan’s development program that this should be made a priority. A skilled team of safety engineers defined the layout of the vehicle to support this target, and an extensive simulation program using LS-DYNA® was planned to define and validate the design intent without compromising the design of the vehicle as well as maintaining all other important vehicle functions. This paper will provide an insight into part of the journey taken to establish a new vehicle brand in China, fulfilling high European safety standards at an affordable cost, and how Qoros succeeded in this mission with a combination of skills, extensive CAE analysis and finally the validation of the recipe during physical testing. The paper will highlight how the high rating for pedestrian protection was obtained and give a short overview of the complete safety development of the Qoros 3 Sedan. Introduction This paper introduces Qoros and the development of the first vehicle on Qoros’ new compact-segment platform, the Qoros 3 Sedan. It is difficult to present a whole vehicle development in one paper so this text focuses on pedestrian protection as the main topic and will discuss how the rating for pedestrian protection was obtained in the Euro NCAP test as well as discussing some areas where difficulties were encountered with the initial assessment using CAE. -

Purpose-Driven Automotive Business Model Is Key to Survival
Revving the Asian automotive market A purpose-driven exploration of trends and business models Abstract Driven by rapid urbanization, economic prosperity, and a rising population, mobility needs in Asian countries have increased for people and goods. While passenger transport is expected to rise, vehicle ownership remains low. This imbalance has created an enormous opportunity for mobility service providers to capture the Asia-Pacific (APAC) market, primarily dominated by a young population. With their high spending power and interest in value for money, they want to better utilize the time spent on the wheel and monetize their assets such as the vehicle they own. This paper highlights the specific characteristics of APAC automotive trends and how automakers can benefit by building purpose-driven business models. Challenges and opportunities in the APAC automotive market The automotive industry is witnessing disruption, as car owners increasingly question the value of money spent on purchasing an automobile. For a small population in Asia, owning a car may be a matter of pride, but a large proportion looks for a car’s utility. This trend has resulted in reduced car sales and profitability, overcapacity, consolidation, layoffs, and more. It has also affected the supplier ecosystem. To tackle the challenge head-on, car manufacturers in the APAC region are experimenting with a series of new product launches, smart features, connected services, immersive car buying experiences, and new market expansion programs. However, as the results are not too impressive, there is a need to revisit the fundamentals of the current business model with a focus on mobility. Going back to basics requires automotive firms to answer some fundamental questions: • What needs to be moved – people or goods – from point A to B? • How will the asset be designed and what is the end purpose? • If there is movement today, what problem needs to be solved? • Is vehicle ownership necessary? Let us look at how the automotive industry in Asia is addressing these questions. -
