New coupe body logo
AITO's first mass-produced car, the M5, adopts a new exterior design in appearance, and the entire front face is like a supercar modeling idea. The position of the headlights is lower, using shark fin streamer light clusters, rich internal details and a full LED structure.
The central net is decorated with horizontal strips, the opening area is large and inverted trapezoidal, with a new AITO logo on the top and the installation position of the millimeter-wave radar below. The fog light areas on both sides retain the design of the daytime running lights, which are also the light source of the LED.
The AITO logo in the middle was thus displayed in the C position, while the body nameplates of the Cyrus and The Inquisition M5 were retained below. A large area of scratch-resistant trim is used under the rear of the car, and some patterns that imitate diffusers are also made at the bottom to further enhance the overall sporty atmosphere.
It is understood that aito inquisitive M5 has a total of gilded black, ice crystal gray, ceramic white, sea blue, pine frost green five colors, while there are three different combinations in the interior, so there are fifteen different personalized programs to choose from.
Interior
HarmonyOS Smart Cockpit
The AITO M5 is the first production car equipped with harmonyOS smart cockpit, with a 10.4-inch curved full LCD instrument panel and a 15.6-inch semi-suspended central control screen that brings an obvious sense of technology. The combination of curved full LCD instrument and center console is very harmonious, and the information displayed on the screen is also quite rich, and the scrolling information on the left side can be switched with the multi-function buttons on the steering wheel.
The operation of the middle 15.6-inch large screen is also relatively smooth, and the system itself has the characteristics of minimalist interaction, unified notification and control center, and efficient multi-task operation. The UI design of the main interface is similar to the style of Huawei terminals, and the smartDock service card of the personalized shortcut bar is permanently stationed below the desktop, and it also supports full-screen, split-screen, suspension and other operations. The switching of the interface is also relatively silky, with exquisite details such as 3D simulation animation, light and shadow animation of driving mode switching, icon micro animation and ambient light animation effect of light with sound.
AITO Q&I M5 is also pre-installed with a wealth of applications, including car maps, Huawei music, Huawei video, Douyu, Migu video, Bilibili, etc., and the Huawei application market can also bring more functions to the vehicle. At the same time, Q&I M5 also has an industry-leading voice assistant Xiaoyi, which can do 60 seconds of continuous dialogue and support Cantonese and Sichuan dialect. The interconnection attribute of the whole vehicle has also been further improved, and under the distributed technical support of HarmonyOS, the seamless switching of mobile phones and car machines can be realized, and it is no longer imaginary to take photos, payments, connect cars and homes, and even unlock vehicles with HUAWEI WATCH 3.
Driving-related parts, AITO Inquisitive M5 adopts a two-piece flat-bottom steering wheel, the outer ring of the steering wheel adopts nappa leather, the grip is full, and the middle airbag cover also adopts the process of leather and stitching, which is more advanced. However, the adjustment method is manual, and it will be more intelligent if it can be added to the electric adjustment interconnected with the car machine in the later upgrade.
The rest of the central control materials are mostly soft materials and light leather, which are relatively advanced in texture and touch. The one-piece leather gear lever is made from a single piece of leather for a delicate touch. The front is also set up with The Suprcharge's mobile phone wireless charging panel, and a cup holder is set up next to it in pursuit of aesthetics, but the storage capacity of the entire front row is still enough.
During the real shooting process, we also experienced a smart lamp language of the Q&I M5, which has 128 colors of stepless adjustable atmosphere lights, which can match the voice interaction changes and can also accompany the rhythm of the music beat. In the future, through OTA upgrades, it is also possible to achieve light and dark changes in vehicle driving.
In terms of assisted driving and safety configuration, the aito inquisitive M5 is also very comprehensive. The new car is equipped with 1 high-perception camera, 3 millimeter-wave radar, 4 surround view cameras, and 8 ultrasonic radars. This enables L2+ level driver assistance functions, 360 surround view images and automatic parking.
At the same time, at the level of intelligent security, HarmonyOS inherits Huawei's security capabilities on mobile terminals, and users can log in with 3D face recognition accounts after getting on the bus and adjust personalization options. The system itself is also in place for privacy protection, microphones, cameras, geographical location and other privacy permissions can be controlled separately to ensure the increasing security of user data.

Human-centered comfort
The performance of the rear row, first of all, the opening range of the rear door is larger, and the configuration is also equipped with a seat heating function to improve the comfort of the seat. The padding is very soft, and the rear seats can be proportionally reclined, further enhancing the flexibility of the space. The rear also offers a storage mesh pocket, a central armrest with cup holder, a rear vent and two Type-c USB ports.
In actual experience, female passengers with a height of 165cm have a very abundant space to enjoy, whether it is the front or rear seat. Especially after the entire roof is equipped with a canopy, the head space has a very good performance, and the leg space in the rear row benefits from the wheelbase of 2880mm, which also has a distance of more than two fists. The flatness of the rear floor is also better, only a slight bulge, and does not affect the rear passengers in the middle.
The trunk has an electric tailgate, and the interior space after opening is regular, with a capacity of up to 369 liters of trunk space and a capacity of up to 776 liters when the rear seats are reclined. There is a hierarchical processing up and down, and it also intimately retains the power supply of 12v and 220v, which further improves the practicality of daily use. However, the entire rear row is not fully flat after the seat is receded, if this detail can be optimized, I believe that the load performance of the entire trunk will be stronger.

Summary of the full text
The product characteristics of AITO Q&I M5 are still very obvious, it is for those young people who pursue a smart travel experience, not to forget the various Huawei branding on it, and can also capture middle-aged consumers who have special feelings for domestic products.
Overall, the design of the interior of the AITO Q&A M5 has a high degree of maturity, configuration and performance are remarkable, especially the HarmonyOS intelligent cockpit, HUAWEI SOUND sound system and DriveONE pure electric drive range extender platform, so that this car really has the strength to challenge the new forces to build a troika.
