How far can your electric car go in minus 20 degrees Celsius and with the air conditioner on at 24 degrees? Recently, the car emperor conducted this test, and the performance of two models showed a clear contrast.
BYD Dolphin, the manufacturer's guidance price of 9.38-12.18 million yuan, measured in an environment of minus 20 degrees, achieved a range of 225 kilometers, while its nominal endurance is 405 kilometers, and the endurance rate is as high as 55%.
Volkswagen ID.3, manufacturer guidance price of 15.9888-173888 million yuan, in the environment of minus 20 degrees, the nominal endurance of 430 kilometers, only ran out of 167 kilometers, the endurance rate is only 38.9%. The Volkswagen ID.3, which is said to have a higher endurance, is nearly 60 kilometers lower in battery life. And the Volkswagen ID.3 uses a ternary lithium battery with a smaller low temperature attenuation, what is the problem?
On the one hand, because the Volkswagen ID.3 uses TPC heating air conditioning, that is, the material of our household radiator, which consumes a lot of power, while BYD Dolphin uses heat pump air conditioning, which consumes less power.
On the other hand, the gap between the two sides in terms of electronic control, the battery capacity of volkswagen ID.3 is 57 degrees, while the dolphin is less than 45 degrees, but the actual measurement endurance of the two sides is far away, which has the reason for the car-making experience and electronic control system, BYD Dolphin as the first model of the e-platform 3.0, using the world's first deeply integrated eight-in-one electric powertrain, the comprehensive efficiency of the system reached the industry-leading 89%. And the use of battery pack refrigerant direct cooling and direct heat technology to ensure that the battery pack is always at the best working temperature. The combination of these technologies makes the winter test endurance of BYD Dolphins satisfactory.
In the era of fuel vehicles, we have become accustomed to the leadership of foreign car brands in technology, domestic cars seem to have always been the follower, direct procurement of Mitsubishi engines, reverse Volkswagen EA888 engines, copycat joint venture car chassis, domestic cars seem to be no matter how hard they try, can not catch up with the pace of joint venture cars, can only be in the configuration, design, space and price of the clever, hope to be able to fight with the joint venture car, to get a place.
But in today's era of new energy vehicles, the situation has completely reversed, once the overlord of the fuel vehicle era - Volkswagen, but in the development of new energy vehicles at a slow pace, until this year, only launched Volkswagen's ID series, however, these pure electric models are still like using the idea of fuel vehicles to build electric vehicles, the engine is replaced by a motor, the fuel tank is replaced by a battery, but in terms of driving experience, sense of technology, vehicle engine system, auxiliary driving level, Volkswagen's fuel vehicle has not formed a significant differentiation, Compared with the models launched by some new car-making forces, and even compared with the electric vehicles launched by some traditional car companies in China, they are not so "trendy".
In terms of motor battery electronic control, the public, which does not have much technical accumulation, is far inferior to BYD in terms of low temperature endurance, which is also reasonable.
Therefore, we are actually witnessing the birth of a new era, the giants in the era of fuel vehicles, in the era of new energy vehicles, there is no longer a crushing advantage, and car companies like BYD are in the forefront.
When Nokia was acquired by Microsoft, CEO Joma Olilla concluded at a press conference: "We didn't do anything wrong, but somehow we lost." This sentence may be confirmed in more and more traditional car companies in the future, you seem to have done nothing wrong, but it is precisely because when the change happens, you have not done anything, or done too late. At this time, people will remember that when RT-Mart was acquired by Ali, the founder's painful understanding: "When the times abandoned you, they would not even say a goodbye."
