Mid-size SUV with advanced tech and impressive range: A detailed look at the new electric model

First of all, in terms of appearance, it continues the family-style dragon-face aesthetic design concept. I think this car gives people a calm and capable feeling. The front face has more lines, and the upper and lower layers are clear. The headlights on both sides are slender in shape, and the daytime running lights inside are similar to the dragon beard style, with an obvious sense of dynamics. The lower air guide outlet is C-shaped, which looks very delicate.

From the side of the body, the streamlined lines are obvious, and there is a floating roof design. It does not look traditional, but exudes a youthful atmosphere. The window edges are decorated with silver chrome bright strips, and the lower part is equipped with multi-spoke aluminum alloy wheels. The tail has a full shape and adopts a through-type taillight group design. It is more eye-catching when lit at night, and the lower part is wrapped in black.

The headlights have LED headlights, LED daytime running lights, adaptive high and low beams, automatic headlights, steering assist lights, headlight height adjustment, delayed headlight shutdown function, and headlight rain and fog mode. When we experienced it, we got the car from the underground garage of the exhibition hall. The light in the basement was dim, so we turned on the headlights and switched between high and low beams. Judging from the range of light on the opposite wall, the penetration is good, because the distance to the wall is about 18 meters.

Sitting in the back row and looking towards the front row, the field of vision is quite open. Although they are all dark colors, the different layouts make it look warm and delicate. Silver trim is also used to embellish the center console and the inside of the car. It feels textured and there are Chinese knot patterns. The texture on the seats is clearly visible, and the covering material is quite soft. The steering wheel is leather and supports up and down + front and back adjustment and heating functions.

It is also equipped with a 12.3-inch full LCD instrument panel and a 15.6-inch central control screen, with a built-in DiLink car system, GPS navigation, car networking, OTA upgrade, voice recognition control system, app store and other functions.

During the experience, I felt that the central control screen was like a smart phone, with similar display and partition layout of functions. First of all, it can be rotated and moved, and can be switched in different usage scenarios. If it is navigation, the vertical display is more detailed and convenient to use. If it is watching a video, it will be more intuitive horizontally. There are some commonly used function card areas on it, such as music playback, map navigation, weather, etc.

There is also 3D modeling in the vehicle control interface, which can control the front and rear rows, such as air-conditioning temperature, seat heating, ventilation, memory and other functions. The voice recognition control system is quite smooth because it supports continuous recognition and partition recognition, which is equivalent to a small assistant.

In terms of safety configuration, it is equipped with an L2-level assisted driving system, which has front collision warning, rear collision warning, reversing side warning, active braking, lane change assistance, lane keeping assistance, fatigue driving prompts, road traffic sign recognition, tire pressure display, front and rear reversing radar, 360-degree panoramic image, transparent chassis, full-speed adaptive cruise, variable suspension adjustment and other configurations.

This car has a rich configuration, whether it is active or passive safety, it is very convenient in daily use, such as deviating from the lane, being too close to the front car, and having obstacles on the side. In addition to reminders, the system will also actively intervene.

The dimensions of the vehicle are 4900mm in length, 1950mm in width and 1725mm in height respectively, with a wheelbase of 2820mm. It is positioned as a medium-sized SUV, and the seats are made of leather. The layout is 2+3+2, and the second row of seats are independent seats. The driver and co-driver seats support electric adjustment. The driver's seat supports forward and backward movement, height adjustment and backrest angle adjustment, and the co-driver seat supports forward and backward movement and backrest angle adjustment. I am 1.80 meters tall, and there are about two fists of leg space left when sitting in the second row, and less than one fist of head space left. Although the third row is not as spacious as the second row, it is still good for daily use.

In terms of power, it is equipped with a 245-horsepower permanent magnet synchronous motor with a total power of 180 kilowatts and a total torque of 350 Nm. The lithium iron phosphate battery has a capacity of 108.8 kWh, fast charging in 0.5 hours, and a pure electric range of 730 kilometers. The transmission is matched with an electric vehicle single-speed gearbox, and the chassis is equipped with a front McPherson independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension.

Although this car is equipped with a single motor, its power output is more than enough. When I need strong power, I can feel the momentum when I step on the pedal deeply. In sports mode, the power performance will be more positive. The steering wheel is flexible. The driving speed in the city is relatively slow, which makes it look light and not heavy. The steering control of the front of the car is stable at high speeds. At the same time, when turning, the chassis suspension tuning is heavy and solid, without any loose feeling. I think it is quite suitable for home use.

As a mid-size SUV, this car is mainly aimed at home use and offers 7-seat and 6-seat layouts, which can increase the usage scenarios to a certain extent. The interior has a wide-body layout and uses more soft materials, which feel soft and delicate. The car system is relatively rich and the experience is obviously similar to that of a mobile phone. It is worth mentioning that the range is 730 kilometers, which I think can meet daily use needs.
