At the Huawei winter new product launch conference a few days ago, the AITO M5 jointly created by Huawei and Xilisi was officially released, and the pre-price was announced to be 250,000-320,000 yuan. Although Huawei unanimously emphasizes that it does not cause it, in my opinion, this car is actually Huawei's car, and Cilis is more like a foundry.
AITO Q&I M5 is based on HUAWEI Drive ONE pure electric drive range extender platform, this time launched a total of 3 models, six car paint colors, three interior colors, respectively, rear-drive standard version, four-wheel drive performance and four-wheel drive flagship version. The car has a length, width and height of 4770/1930/1625mm, and a wheelbase of 2880mm, which can be regarded as the size of a medium-sized SUV.
From the appearance point of view, the overall design of the AITO M5 is still somewhat similar to the Cyrus SF5, but the new car has done a lot of subtraction, whether it is workmanship or the overall temperament has a great change, the visual effect is more imposing than the Race Lance SF5.
In terms of interior, the layout design of aito M5 is also relatively simple, the most eye-catching is the 10.4-inch curved LCD dashboard and 15.6-inch intelligent central control large screen. In addition, the Hongmeng OS smart cockpit is also the biggest highlight of the whole car, and the fluency and operation logic of its car-machine system are comparable to the mainstream smart phones on the market. Of course, intelligent voice interaction, navigation, and all-round digital key are the most basic operations.
In terms of power, AITO Q&I M5 is equipped with a range extender hybrid system, the range extender uses a 1.5T engine, the maximum power is 92kW, the maximum torque is 205 Nm; the four-wheel drive performance version of the model comprehensive peak power position is 315kW, the four-wheel drive flagship version of the comprehensive peak power level is 365kW; the four-wheel drive flagship version of zero hundred acceleration is 4.4 seconds, the rear-drive standard version is 7.1 seconds, the four-wheel drive performance version is 4.8 seconds, and the first echelon of new energy vehicles with proper performance performance. In terms of endurance performance, its pure electric endurance is 150 km WLC and WLTC can reach 1000 km.
In summary, the product strength of AITO Q&I M5 is significantly higher than that of the previous Xilix SF5, coupled with the blessing of Hongmeng OS system, I think the car still has some highlights.
From an objective point of view, Huawei has ranked first in the R&D investment of domestic enterprises for many years, even in the international community has always been the top ten, or even the top five levels, so Huawei's technical reserves are no problem, and its capital is also very strong, so if Huawei wants to seriously build cars, the problem should not be big. In addition, as the first major IP of domestic brands, Huawei has a brand influence that many enterprises cannot match, so as long as Huawei's banner is erected, it should not worry about sales, especially this time Huawei is basically a showdown at the conference is to build its own car, with Huawei's marketing ability to call the wind and rain, sales should not be a problem.
