Sanxiang Metropolis Daily · New Hunan Client, November 16 (Reporter Pan Xianxuan) Today, Didi Travel held the "Didi Open Day" and officially released the world's first customized online car D1. Based on 550 million passengers, tens of millions of driver needs, and tens of billions of trip data on the Didi platform, this car is customized for the online car-hailing travel scenarios in terms of human-computer interaction, driver experience, and Internet of Vehicles. Design, for example, passengers can independently select the color of the "welcome light" through the App, control the air conditioning in the car, and even K song through the car screen. It is understood that D1 will be officially put into operation next month, and the first city of operation will be Changsha.
, as the first new car species born for shared travel, D1 was jointly designed and developed by Didi and BYD, which will lead the automobile transportation industry into a new stage.
The theme of this Didi Open Day is "Always Day 1," and the first customized online car-hailing released is named "D1", which means that the 8-year-old Didi continues to explore the unknown spirit, consistent and never forgetting his original intention. More than 31 million vehicles are connected to the
Didi platform. After analyzing a large number of travel scenarios and data, it is found that some travel problems need to be resolved from the vehicle side to be more effective.
D1 adopts fresh "green fruit color" as the main color, which is different from the conventional color of vehicles on city streets. It has been customized for driver scenarios and passenger needs.
For drivers, D1 adopts highly customized super seats, mobile briefcases, etc., so that drivers can relieve fatigue during long hours of driving. In order to reduce the operating cost of drivers, D1 is more affordable in terms of rent and charging. D1 also connects the car and Didi platform, and realizes the integrated operation of car and network through a large 10.1-inch screen. It is worth mentioning that the "Didi button" on the steering wheel, the driver's master uses the "Didi button" to take orders with one click, and no longer need to use a mobile phone to take orders during driving.
For passengers, D1 is a "remote control" online car-hailing. Passengers can adjust the temperature and air volume of the air-conditioning in the car through the Didi App before getting on the bus. When passengers call D1, the platform will distribute a rainbow color to match the driving car. "Rainbow driving lights" makes it easier for passengers to find a car. The single-sided electric sliding door of D1 makes getting on and off the car better.
In terms of safety, the D1 is equipped with an AEB system, which automatically brakes when encountering obstacles in a hurry to ensure the safety of drivers and passengers. This is the first time the AEB system has been adopted in the same class of cars, and it is also the first online car-hailing car equipped with AEB system.
Two years ago, Didi joined the upstream and downstream of the automobile industry chain to build an open and mutually empowering automobile operator platform to jointly promote the development of the travel industry in the direction of new energy, intelligence, and sharing. The idea of customized online car-hailing was born.
Half a month ago, Didi announced that its domestic monthly active users exceeded 400 million. In the past five years, Didi has carried more than 10 billion passengers annually. Before the National Day this year, Didi set a record of providing 60 million services to the world in a single day. The rapid increase in the number of travellers has led to accelerated restructuring of travel modes, and consumers expect customizable and personalized travel services.
