Since the new car-making forces ushered in the industry star- the technology giant Huawei, it has been trying to refresh people's understanding of smart cars with its own smart car solutions. At the Huawei new product winter conference in December 2021, the emergence of aito Q&A M5 once again ignited the car circle and made people understand that Huawei still insists on not building cars and only being an enabler, but their enthusiasm for cars is no less than that of brand OEMs.
Upgraded version of SF5? Unique range extender electric vehicle
As a car with Huawei's multiple technologies and full attention to "blessing", the "Q&I M5" is positioned as a smart luxury SUV, equipped with HUAWEI Drive ONE pure electric drive range extender platform and HarmonyOS smart cockpit, starting from 250,000 yuan.
But this new model, which looks full of technology, actually has similarities with the Cyrus SF5 in many ways: the Q&I M5 and SF5 are all extended-range electric vehicles, and the S&C M5 has many similarities with the Sf5 series, such as the front face design of the Q&C M5 and the large-area trapezoidal grille are similar to the SF5, and the interior is also very simple design style, and the appearance is also familiar...
However, the M5 has a certain improvement in the hardware configuration, the car has a 10.4-inch curved full LCD dashboard, 15.6-inch 2K HDR intelligent central control large screen, wireless charging area and other designs, equipped with HUAWEI DriveONE pure electric drive range extender platform, four-wheel drive performance version peak power of 315kW, and the top version of the model dual motor is more than 365kW and 675N·m, Acceleration up to 4.4 seconds per 100 km/h and a 1.5T four-cylinder Miller cycle range extender for range extender systems, with a compression ratio of 15:1, thermal efficiency of 41 percent, and a maximum power generation efficiency of 3.2 kWh/L.
Just like the evaluation of a technology circle bigwig who participated in this conference: AITO Q&I M5 is like a well-decorated Cyrus SF5! But it still has its own uniqueness.
Hongmeng blessing: AITO wants to build a super terminal
Although AITO and Xilis SF5 are inextricably linked, careful analysis found that Huawei's release of AITO may not be simply to do a simple upgrade, behind it should be the confidence in improving the flaws after the Sf5 test, as well as the layout of Huawei to build the Hongmeng ecology, and there is that Huawei may be really anxious, in addition to the inconvenience of personally teaching this alliance car, other means that can be used are basically used.
Looking back at the sales of Cyrus SF5 in the past four months, 700, 1000, 2200 and 2900 respectively, it is about to exceed 3000 vehicles, and the overall growth momentum has been maintained, compared with last year's sales have increased many times. According to the data released by the Association of Passenger Transporters, the data of the domestic new energy SUV sales TOP15 in November shows that the sales volume of the BMW X3 BEV ranked 14th is 2754 vehicles, according to the sales volume of the Cyris SF5, it can be said that it has been very successful, which shows that Huawei tested the water SF5 and did let it taste the sweetness, which is a great encouragement to Xiaokang shares and Huawei, in this cooperation mode of Huawei's control of the dominant power, Huawei accelerated the research and development upgrade and release of new cars, which is naturally expected.
A more important mission of the birth of AITO Q&I M5 is that Huawei's consideration in the ecological layout of smart cars, as the first model equipped with the new HarmonyOS smart cockpit, "Q&I M5" is a super terminal that seamlessly flows with people, mobile phones, smart homes, smart watches, etc., for the first time in the industry to achieve seamless connection between the mobile operating system and the car, creating a connected world based on the Internet of Everything, and has innovative technologies and experiences such as industry-leading all-round digital car keys.
Undoubtedly, this car will apply the advantages of Huawei's Hongmeng ecology for the first time, and will lay a solid foundation for Huawei's later layout of the automotive vehicle networking ecology.
Huawei does not build cars: but will be deeply integrated into the high-end car field and channel sales
"Huawei does not build cars" This is the sentence we hear the most, but no matter how strong the strength is, it is afraid of the assist of "pig teammates", which may be one of the internal reasons for the birth of AITO Q&A M5! We have heard many times last year that Huawei is not satisfied with the standards of its partners and is ready to change the "car", and some people have said that they are negotiating with a factory in Anhui. It's hard to tell the truth, but it's true that these stocks have risen a lot.
The advent of AITO Q&A M5 is also a powerful response to these rumors. However, AITO asked who is responsible for the sales leadership of the M5, and it will become the focus of the world's attention. With the clumsy performance of teammates before, will Huawei personally get on the horse this time?
Judging from the current news, Huawei announced that since December 23, it has successively displayed real cars in 180 Huawei stores in 42 cities. Since January 20, 2022, 500 Huawei stores in 118 cities have opened to make test drives and reservations, and users can make reservations through the AITO official website and my Huawei APP.
What does this mean? To give a few comparative examples, ideal car cut on September 30, 2021, there are only 153 retail centers in the country covering 85 cities, this data is only 176 by December 2021. Weilai Auto stores in 2021 plan is 366, that is to say, AITO Q&I M5 under the blessing of Huawei, in one month to complete the road of the new car-making force Sanxiong in 23 years to complete the round, coupled with the blessing of Huawei Hongmeng ecology, and Huawei's strong technical strength and its own brand aura, this is obviously the rhythm of "opening and hanging", what reason is not full of confidence in the future of AITO Q&AO M5?
In addition, Huawei has carried out in-depth cooperation with three car companies, BAIC, GAC, and Changan, and will jointly build three automobile sub-brands. As a new business after the shrinking mobile phone business, Huawei is very likely to launch more high-end and more intelligent electric vehicles in the future based on the existing test waters, and fully enter the automotive intelligence market. Its top technology in terms of intelligent cockpit, Hongmeng system, automatic driving system and lidar will escort the launch of follow-up high-end cars.
Write at the end:
Overall, although aito M5 has similarities with Thexis SF5 in terms of product design and configuration, it is undoubtedly a new model with stronger intelligence and networking level and better electric drive technology, which is obviously not as simple as left and right mutual bo.
With huawei's blessing, aito asked the future market performance of M5 we think will break through the past results, absolutely worth the market expectations, we will also conduct in-depth test drive evaluation of this car, please wait for our evaluation!
