Against the backdrop of carbon neutrality becoming a global consensus, the advent of the electric vehicle wave, and consumers demanding higher vehicle performance and aesthetics, the value logic of every component in the automotive industry is being restructured. Among them, wheels—a field once dominated by steel and aluminum alloys—are experiencing a disruptive revolution with carbon fiber materials. Professor Wang Dengfeng, professor at the School of Automotive Engineering, Jilin University, director of the Automotive Lightweighting Research Center, and chief scientist of the China Automotive Lightweighting Technology Innovation Strategic Alliance, points out that lightweighting is an important technological path for the automotive industry to achieve its dual carbon goals and reduce energy consumption. As an important rotating component at the end of the automotive power transmission system, the four wheels of a passenger car account for about 1/40 of the total vehicle weight, so the potential for lightweighting is enormous.
Carbon fiber automotive wheels, with their lightweight, high-strength, excellent fatigue performance, and corrosion resistance, are becoming a new favorite in the automotive industry. Their lightweight characteristics can effectively improve the cruising range of new energy vehicles, reduce energy consumption, and greatly improve vehicle safety and handling, giving them broad application prospects in high-performance vehicles and racing.
The carbon fiber automotive wheel production line put into operation by Ningbo Carbonfly Company not only fills the domestic gap in this field but also promotes the in-depth application of carbon fiber composite materials in the automotive industry. Liu Yanrong, researcher at China Automotive Technology & Research Center Co., Ltd. and former executive vice president of the Wheel Branch of the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, affirmed that the landing of Carbonfly Company's first domestic annual production line of 10,000 carbon wheels is another important achievement in China's new materials industry development. It marks the successful advancement of China's wheel industry towards high-end products with high technical content and high added value, and will strongly promote the transformation, upgrading, and sustainable development of the automotive industry. Liu Chunhai, a government special allowance expert and former deputy chief engineer of CITIC Dicastal, also vividly compared it: "Steel wheels are like cotton-padded jackets, aluminum alloy wheels are like down jackets, and carbon fiber wheels are like fur coats—they are high-end."
