On June 17, 2025, new filings from China’s National Intellectual Property Administration reveal that Dongfeng Motor Group Co., Ltd. has applied for a patent titled “Control Method, Device, Equipment, and Storage Medium for Improving Vehicle Skidding.” With a publication number of CN120156523A and an application date in April 2025, this innovation targets critical safety improvements in vehicle braking.
The patented technology addresses a significant gap in existing anti-skid systems. By integrating real-time data on driving mode (e.g., sport, eco, off-road) and road surface conditions (dry, wet, icy), the system calculates precise slip rate thresholds. Leveraging wheel speed and vehicle velocity sensors, it dynamically adjusts the vehicle’s output torque during braking. This approach ensures optimal traction control across diverse driving scenarios, resolving the common issue where traditional systems fail to account for varying driving modes, leading to potential skidding risks.
As a veteran in China’s automotive industry, Dongfeng Motor Group, established in 2001 and headquartered in Wuhan, holds a registered capital of 8.589 billion yuan. Its business footprint spans automotive manufacturing, with extensive activities including 43 outbound investments, 5,000 bidding project participations, and ownership of 5,000 patents. The company also holds 157 administrative approvals, reflecting its robust operational scale and technological prowess.
This patent filing underscores Dongfeng’s commitment to enhancing vehicle safety through intelligent engineering. If successfully commercialized, the technology could redefine braking performance standards, providing drivers with more reliable and adaptable anti-skid protection across different driving conditions.
