At present, the market on the electric vehicles are mainly micro cars, cars and SUVs, of which the best sales of mini cars is Wuling Hongguang MINIEV, the best sales volume in the sedan is BYD Qin, the best sales volume in the SUV is Tesla Model Y, and in the electric MPV market, there is no competitor at all, and new car manufacturers and traditional car companies have not laid out this type of electric vehicle. In view of this special market situation, Zhixing Box seized this opportunity and released two pure electric MPV, BM-400 and BM-600. The BM-400 is a compact MPV scheduled for 2023 and the BM-600 is a medium-sized MPV scheduled for 2024.
It is reported that Zhixing Box has won 42,000 orders for 42,000 vehicles before the car is listed, which is related to the positioning of Zhixing Box, which mainly focuses on online ride-hailing, chauffeur-hailing, taxis and high-end rental markets. The market is also very optimistic about its development prospects, otherwise there would not be 42,000 orders. BM-400 and BM-600 are based on the "Octopus" 1.0 modular platform independently developed by Zhixing Box, which supports three driving forms: single motor front drive, single motor rear drive and dual motor four wheel drive, and adopts the power battery CTC structure (battery and chassis integrated design).
The BM-600 adopts a "square box" design, which can maximize the space in the car, and the name of the Chi Heng box can explain its design concept. Its left side has no doors, the right side is equipped with electric side sliding doors, the front door also adopts hidden door handles, the length, width and height of the BM-600 are 4900 * 1900 * 1790mm, the wheelbase is 3100mm, its NEDC mileage is 600km, and supports 600V high-voltage fast charging. BM-400 has a length, width and height of 4530 * 1900 * 1790mm, a wheelbase of 2850mm, its NEDC mileage can be divided into two versions, one is 420km, one is 530mm, support power exchange, but also support 600V high voltage fast charging.
BM-600's interior design is very simple, its center console does not have a physical button, the visual center is the size of the huge central control vertical screen, the car machine built-in HIGH DO intelligent interaction system, the main function is to entertain the passengers in the car, it supports 5G car networking, car KTV, live broadcast, games, movies and so on. The BM-600 is not equipped with a passenger seat, and on the co-pilot center console is an on-board beverage machine for chilled drinks. Under the co-pilot's centre console is a huge storage compartment that can be used to hold the suitcase, and is also secured with a seat belt to prevent the suitcase from rolling off and sliding.
The BM-600 adopts a 6-seat layout of 1+2+3, the second row of seats supports a 30° elevation angle to lie flat, and the seats are also equipped with massage functions, which makes the ride comfortable. In terms of supporting facilities, Zhixing Box will establish a super fast charging station with a maximum output voltage of 1000V, which can last 200km for 10 minutes with a 240kW super charging pile and 400km for 10 minutes with a 480kW super charging pile. It is foreseeable that after the listing of the Chi Heng Box BM-600, it will definitely shake the position of the Buick GL8 in the mid-to-high-end rental market, because they both have similar functions, although one is a fuel car and the other is an electric car. So, what do you think about the Zhixing Box MPV?
