Mid-Size SUV Smart Running Boards

-- Steady & Reliable Manufacturer --

Technical Overview

Smart Running Boards for mid-size SUVs (like the Haval F5, VW Tanyue, Skoda Kodiaq) focus on optimal footprint and integrated technology suitable for daily urban and suburban use. The system leverages a simplified, high-efficiency motor and control unit designed for fast deployment and minimal energy consumption. The step platform length is precisely matched to the passenger door openings, maximizing the usable stepping area while minimizing the overall weight.

The integration relies heavily on the vehicle's standard electrical protocols (often CAN-Bus or simple door trigger) to provide a reliable, low-latency deployment. The structural design emphasizes a compact stowed position to maintain the vehicle's aesthetic profile and factory ground clearance.

Introduction

The mid-size SUV segment demands accessories that balance utility, technology, and cost efficiency. Our smart running boards provide the core benefit of enhanced accessibility through automated deployment, making them an excellent convenience upgrade for high-volume family and commuter vehicles. They are engineered for consistent, hassle-free operation throughout the vehicle's life.

Bohai Automotive Technology Co., Ltd. utilizes efficient, large-scale manufacturing processes in Huzhou to deliver these technologically integrated products at a competitive scale, serving the vast mid-size SUV market with a durable and smart accessory solution.

Common Questions

Q: Does the step design accommodate the vehicle's standard factory jack points?
A: Yes. All mounting brackets are designed to avoid interference with the factory jack points, ensuring routine maintenance and tire changes can be performed without step removal.

Q: What is the benefit of the high-efficiency ECU in this category?
A: The high-efficiency ECU minimizes the load on the vehicle's 12V electrical system, which is particularly relevant for newer vehicles that manage numerous electronic accessories and systems concurrently.

Q: Are the steps suitable for vehicles that sometimes travel on unpaved roads?
A: Yes. While optimized for paved roads, the components are sealed and the linkage is designed to shed typical dirt and gravel, ensuring function on well-maintained unpaved roads.

Core Features

Efficiency Focus: The motor and control system are designed to minimize electrical draw, maintaining the vehicle's overall energy consumption profile.
Vehicle-Proportional Fit: Steps are sized appropriately for the mid-size platform, ensuring they look integrated and do not protrude unnecessarily.
Reliable Deployment: Simplified mechanical linkage and robust motor guarantee consistent function in everyday conditions.
Cost-Effective Technology: Delivers smart automation and safety features at a competitive price point, suitable for high-volume market demand.

Manufacturing & Customization

Production involves High-Volume Automated Stamping and Forming of the structural components. Quality control includes Dimensional Sampling of the finished steps against the mid-size SUV CAD data to ensure fitment consistency.

Customization Opportunities: Focused on volume and market adaptation:

Bulk Packaging Solutions: Offering specialized container loading and packaging designed to minimize freight costs for high-volume global distribution.
Localization of Manuals: Providing electronic and printed installation and user manuals translated and formatted for specific regional markets (e.g., Russian, Spanish).
Platform Tread Variations: Offering minor variations in the step surface texture to cater to regional aesthetic preferences or specific anti-slip regulations.

Material Selection

The platform uses 6063 Aluminum Extrusion for a strong, cost-effective structure. The surface is often finished with a Lightly Textured Powder Coat to provide adequate grip without the need for heavy rubber inserts.

Mounting brackets are constructed from Stamped and E-Coated Steel, chosen for its optimal balance of strength and manufacturing volume efficiency.

The motor uses Automotive-Grade Polymer Housing to reduce weight and provide inherent electrical insulation and sealing.
