It is not difficult to see the sincerity of ET5 in hardware. In addition, in order to improve the visual perception performance in the surround view scene, the four surround view cameras of the Aquila system adopt Sony's latest generation of 3 million pixel high-sensitivity surround view cameras, which can better support the 360° panoramic image, transparent chassis and park assist functions in the low light environment.
Powerful and longer battery life
