On December 15, another domestic new energy brand made its debut in Beijing, which is a box car. Different from the previous new energy brands, the two models launched by Box Auto this time are facing the B-class market. Among them, the BM-400 is mainly aimed at the car, online car and taxi markets, while the BM-600 is aimed at the mid-to-high-end rental market. The real-time car in our article is the BM-400, which is an MPV model that is very close to mass production. So what is the specific performance of the car, and what are the highlights? Let's take a look.
In terms of appearance, the overall shape of the BM-400 is very square, although the front face is simple and smooth, but the unique headlight shape and a rectangular display between the two sides of the light group create a very sci-fi visual effect.
The side of the body is also relatively square, which has the advantage of maximizing the space inside the car. Since it is purely electric, the four wheels of the BM-400 are also arranged in the position of the four corners as much as possible, which looks more like a "box".
It is worth mentioning that the door of the car adopts an asymmetrical structural form, in which there is only one sliding door on the right side of the body, no passenger door and a third row of windows. Although the left side of the body provides the main driver's door, there is no rear door, and the third row has a window. It feels very familiar, yes, it is very similar to the design of the bus.
Coming to the rear, the taillight shape of the BM-400 and the rectangular display between the light groups on both sides have the front of the car to echo, the family characteristics are obvious, and the recognition is also quite high.
In terms of body dimensions, the car has a length, width and height of 4530/1900/1790 mm, and a wheelbase of 2850 mm.
In terms of interior, the BM-400's central control area is designed to be simple, the two-frame steering wheel looks very personal, the center console has a large longitudinal central control screen, and there is a cold drink cabinet on the side of the co-driver. However, the passenger side is not provided with seats, but is set up as a luggage area.
In addition, the interior of the car adopts a 1+1+3 seat layout, and the overall L-shaped design makes it possible to get on and off more conveniently, and the design concept is very similar to that of buses.
According to the information currently exposed, the box BM-400 model will provide two cruising ranges, namely 420 km and 530 km. At the same time, the new car also supports fast charging, while the higher-level BM-600 models will support power replacement in the future.
