On December 17, a blockbuster new car that changed the rules of the game in China's SUV market finally unveiled its last layer of mystery: the WEY latte DHT was officially launched with a price of 15.98-17.98 million. The majority of netizens are not only surprised by its lethal price, but also curious about the excellent product power of the new car. This hybrid model independently created by the Chinese brand has sounded a powerful clarion call for the new energy transformation of the WEY brand.
Perhaps many friends are still impressed by the previous VV6 and VV7 of the WEY brand, but the technological progress and market update will not stop for a moment, and the new WEY latte DHT can be said to embody all the advanced technologies of Great Wall Motors, and represent the international car manufacturing standards of Chinese car brands shoulder to shoulder with the joint venture.
Some friends may ask, what is the strength of this WEY latte DHT, worth such a big book? The root cause lies in its two-speed DHT hybrid technology layout. This set of HEV hybrid system independently developed by the Great Wall adopts a dual-motor hybrid topology, equipped with a combination of 1.5T engine + dual motor, gasoline engine integrated Miller cycle, VGT supercharger and other advanced technologies, compression ratio of 11.8:1, the system comprehensive power of 246 horsepower, peak torque of 532 N · m, the transmission system matches the two-speed DHT transmission, and equipped with ejection start mode and single pedal mode. It is not difficult to see from the data that this car has good performance. Taking the commonly used urban transportation conditions as an example, 0 -60km/h acceleration takes only 3.9 seconds, and 100 km/h acceleration takes only 7.5 seconds, and the excellent performance exceeds 90% of the 2.0T pure gasoline SUV.
Fast acceleration is not the only advantage of latte DHT, fuel saving is an important reason why many users choose hybrid models. Official data shows that the comprehensive fuel consumption of latte DHT 100 km is as low as 4.9L. Compared with the fuel consumption of 9-12 liters per 100 kilometers of conventional 2.0T pure gasoline SUV, the fuel consumption of latte DHT has considerable advantages. Another benefit of low fuel consumption is the long endurance, with a maximum range of 1,000 km for latte DHT. Long endurance brings three real benefits, one is that daily cars do not need to frequent gas stations, there is more time to accompany the family, the second is to encounter holidays, do not have to worry about the long queue of high-speed gas stations, and if you drive through remote areas, you do not need to worry about endurance and refueling problems frequently.
In addition to low fuel consumption and long range, a distinguishing feature of the latte DHT is its excellent driving texture and smoothness comparable to that of an electric car. Conventional turbocharged SUV in the driving process inevitably have vibration, turbo hysteresis, slight setbacks and other physical characteristics, but thanks to the DHT hybrid layout, the dual motors of the latte DHT can participate in real-time speed regulation, intelligent switching drive mode to cope with different road conditions, so that the clutch in the state of no slip grinding to achieve engine non-inductive intervention, to ensure that in a variety of modes can have the smoothness of pure trams, for users to bring the whole process of high-energy, smooth and silky driving experience.
In addition to being smooth, another advantage of the latte DHT comparable to an electric car is its quietness. Different from the noise problem in the driving of conventional gasoline SUVs, the latte DHT can achieve pure electric driving in most scenarios, which essentially solves the core problem; in addition, the new car has carried out technological innovation from the three channels of sound source, transmission path and noise reduction technology, and has applied more than 10 sound source optimization designs such as high sound attenuation structure. A series of ultra-quiet materials such as 5.0mm acoustic laminated glass far exceeding the same level, as well as HARMAN ANC active noise reduction and other technologies, reduce the impact of noise on the cockpit in an all-round way, thus creating the quiet driving texture that luxury brands should have.
However, we need to pay attention to the fact that THE WEY latte DHT not only has comparable Hybrid Technology comparable to the Japanese system, but also achieves a comprehensive surpass of the same level of joint venture SUVs in the intelligent and security levels. Safety has always been the foundation of the WEY brand, latte DHT has remote control parking, transparent chassis, AEB intersection assistance, ESS automatic emergency steering assistance, navigation enhanced head-up display and many other leading intelligent driving assistance technologies, escorting the smart travel of Z generation people. And latte DHT is equipped with 6 millimeter wave radar, 12 ultrasonic radar, 9 high-definition cameras and other intelligent safety configurations, which can realize HWA highway driving assistance, ACC full-speed domain adaptive cruise, front collision warning, rear collision warning, lane keeping, lane departure warning, parallel assist, track reversing, transparent chassis and other practical configurations.
In terms of details, latte DHT is the first in the same level to build intelligent electronic child locks, rear vital signs monitoring system, rear seat heating and other functions, providing meticulous and intelligent care for grandparents, so that technology no longer stays at the cold and empty level, but with strength and practical care for every family trip.
Not only that, latte DHT also has an AI intelligent facial recognition system, which realizes unique driver distraction monitoring, fatigue monitoring, identity login and other functions at the same level, and truly achieves technical service safety.
It can be said that in the most core power and driving level of hybrid models, WEY Latte DHT fully shows excellent strength and first-class level. The price of 15.98-17.98 million can be described as lethal, not only 50,000-70,000 lower than the Japanese hybrid SUV of the same level, but also showing users the full sincerity of the WEY brand with leading intelligence and all-round security. Under the unfavorable situation of long-term monopoly and technical blockade of Japanese brands, WEY relies on independent research and development, integration and innovation, and realizes the breakthrough of the key technology of Chinese automobile brand HEV hybrid. In the grand strategy of Chinese brands to transform to new energy, WEY has taken a solid step and grasped the opportunity and initiative.
