The Boyue PRO four-wheel drive version successfully escaped from trouble with one wheel through the pulley group
The four-wheel drive system has powerful functions and strong ability to escape from trouble
In terms of the four-wheel drive structure, Boyue Yue PRO is equipped with BorgWarner's fifth-generation electro-hydraulic four-wheel drive system. This four-wheel drive system eliminates the traditional accumulator and is equipped with a centrifugal electric hydraulic pump, which reduces its overall weight by 35%. In addition, this system, combined with the front and rear EDL electronic differential function, can more accurately control the torque of each wheel, thereby effectively improving the vehicle's passability and stability.
As an intelligent four-wheel drive SUV, Boyue PRO does not have manually operated configurations such as low-speed 4-wheel drive. This four-wheel drive system is more computer controlled. This four-wheel drive system will Depending on the driving state of the vehicle, the control unit issues instructions to distribute the front and rear power by increasing or decreasing the pressing force of the multi-plate clutch. Under normal circumstances, the system will distribute most of the power to the front axle, thus saving fuel consumption. To achieve the purpose of energy saving and emission reduction.
Boyue PRO four-wheel drive version uses the cross axle to successfully escape the front and rear wheels
But in general off-road conditions, or severe off-road conditions, such as the front wheel starting to slip , the system will increase the system operating oil pressure and compress the clutch through the piston, thereby transmitting the power to the rear axle, thus redistributing the power so that the rear wheels can obtain power to get out of trouble. In terms of power distribution, the maximum torque distribution ratio between the front and rear wheels of the Boyue PRO four-wheel drive version can reach 50:50, and the torque output to the rear axle can reach 1050 N·m, which greatly improves its passability and escape ability.
On actual off-road roads, the Boyue PRO four-wheel drive version also showed good off-road performance. Thanks to the taller chassis, there will be no bottoming out when facing larger potholes. In the 45-degree side slope test and the off-road steep slope section, the reasonable weight distribution of the body of the Boyue PRO prevented the entire body of the Boyue PRO from sliding down. The whole process was very easy, and the four-wheel drive system with its intelligent power distribution was also able to pass on steep slopes. Relatively relaxed.
On gravel roads, the chassis of the Boyue PRO four-wheel drive version has strong integrity and does not feel loose.

From the on-site test drive and off-road test drive, thanks to the integration of the 48V light hybrid system, this powertrain has demonstrated two major characteristics. First, the overall power output is very smooth and linear. Whether it is low-speed off-road or quick lane changes, the power output is very smooth. This is not only due to the extra power provided by the light hybrid system, but also the fast dual-clutch gearbox. The gear shifting also provides a good driving control experience.
