With the continuous development of the electric vehicle market, the field has emerged a lot of distinctive models, they are mainly aimed at domestic young consumers, the use of most of the use of commuting commuting, buying vegetables and receiving babies, etc., this type of model does not need too much space and long-distance endurance, but to be small and easy to drive, while the cost of the car can not be too high. Today, Uncle Che has brought you two high-quality pure electric mini cars that meet the above requirements, their names are Euler White Cat and Baojun KiWi EV.
The 2022 Euler White Cat was launched in January last year, and the new car currently has a total of 7 configurations in the whole series, with a price range of 71,800 to 88,800 yuan. The 2022 Baojun KiWi EV was recently launched, and a total of 2 new models were launched, with a price range of 70,800 to 77,800 yuan.
Next, the car uncle will choose two entry-level models for comparison, the price difference between the two is 0.1 million yuan, almost negligible, let me learn more about their specific performance.
Exterior design
Euler White Cat continues the shape of the previous concept model in terms of appearance design, and roundness and simplicity are the first impressions it brings to us. The interior of the front face of the new car is embellished by an irregular-sized oval air intake, and the headlights group in the rounded rectangular style on both sides looks very full, and the entry-level model uses a halogen light source for the lighting, but it has LED daytime running lights, and the height of the headlights can be adjusted.
The new Baojun KiWi EV is mainly adjusted for the configuration level, the shape of the new car is very sci-fi, there is no traditional sense of the front and rear, the overall more like a vehicle from the science fiction film. Among them, the front design of the new car is very creative, the square headlights and the bottom decorative panel are integrated, and the central car logo is the charging port, which is well integrated into the front face, and driving it on the road will definitely be unforgettable.
In terms of body size, the specific length, width and height of euler white cats are 3625× 1660×1530 mm, and the wheelbase is 2490 mm. The body sides of the new model are also rounded and full, the curves are smooth and natural, and everything is designed with simplicity.
The specific length, width and height of Baojun KiWi EV are 2894×1655×1595 mm, and the wheelbase is 2020mm, which is obviously lagging behind in terms of body length and wheelbase. The side of the new car should be the most bright and recognizable part, and the overall design is split, just like a double-decker bus, which looks very innovative.
Euler white cat rear part of the car adopts design elements similar to the runway circle, the rounded rear surround and the front part of the style are unified, and the rear surround part of the light source uses LED, which is like a smiling cat after lighting, and the recognition is good. In addition, the entire rear of the car is filled with a large number of rounded corner design elements, which is completely consistent with the Euler Black Cat, which can be regarded as the unity and continuation of the design style of the Changan Euler series models.
Viewed from a rear 45-degree angle, the unique waistline design of the Baojun KiWi EV is unobstructed, and the C-pillar part of the car is very backward, thus ensuring a generous head space for the rear passengers. The entire rear design of the new car is very conceptual, there is no taillight in the traditional sense, and the functional areas are designed separately, and the contour lights on both sides of the rear windshield are lit up, and the shape is like Arabic numerals 3, which will definitely not give the rear vehicle driver a cheap feeling when blocking the car.
Interior design
As a micro electric vehicle, Euler white cat in the interior design or has a very good texture, which the new car center console uses a joint screen design, a good way to enhance the scientific and technological atmosphere in the car, in addition, the interior of the car provides a variety of colors to choose from, so that it meets the personalized needs of different consumers, the new car's center console shape is also round and full, and the design style is unified, there is no suspense in the use of hard plastic, but its actual touch and visual feeling created are still relatively good. The touch LCD screen size of the entry-level model is 9 inches, and the functions are more comprehensive, supporting satellite navigation, Bluetooth car phone, original mobile phone interconnection mapping, voice recognition control, Car Networking, OTA upgrade, etc.
Although the overall shape of Baojun KiWi EV in the interior design is relatively simple, the strange steering wheel and irregular center console will still make you feel like sitting in the space capsule, at the same time, the new car also uses a lot of environmentally friendly materials made of plant fibers in the center console and door panels, which further enriches the visual experience of the interior. Most of the center console of the new car is made of hard plastic, but it is embossed and does not look cheap, and the steering wheel has a sci-fi feeling under the unique shape, but unfortunately the steering wheel does not support position adjustment. There is a very open space on the center console in the car, the full LCD dashboard size is 10.25 inches, because there is no central control display screen, so the LCD screen integrates most of the functions including navigation, vehicle information, etc.
The seats in the Euler White Cat are wrapped in fabric fabric and only support manual adjustment in terms of function, but support imitation leather materials and front seat heating options. The front seat surface of this model is relatively thin, not enough to be excellent in the length of the seat cushion, which can give good leg support to the front passengers.
The seats in the Baojun KiWi EV are wrapped in imitation leather fabrics, and only manual adjustment is supported in terms of functions. The front seats in this model are slightly thicker and more comfortable to ride, but because its steering wheel cannot be adjusted up and down, users with long legs may be slightly suffocated.
Euler White Cat adopts 5 doors and 4 seats design, the upper and lower second row is very convenient, and the leg space of the car is relatively generous and sufficient, and the actual ride shows the expectation of the car uncle, which can be said to be the first echelon level in the field of micro electric vehicles.
Limited by the body data, the rear space of the Baojun KiWi EV is not particularly ideal, and the car adopts a 3-door and 4-seat layout, which is inconvenient to enter and exit the second row. If the second row of seats is used, the trunk space is basically reduced to zero, and the seats can only be stored after they are receded.
dynamical system
The Power Side of the Euler White Cat is equipped with a drive motor with a maximum output of 35 kW and a peak torque of 125 Nm. In terms of battery life, it is equipped with a ternary lithium battery pack with a capacity of 29.4 kWh and a cruising range of 305 km.
The Baojun KiWi EV is powered by a drive motor with a maximum output of 40 kW and a peak torque of 150 Nm, and unlike the Euler White Cat, the car uses rear-mounted drive for better driving pleasure. In terms of battery life, the model is equipped with a lithium iron phosphate battery pack with a capacity of 31.9 kWh and a range of 305 km.
Uncle Che summed up
As a representative model in the field of A00-class micro-electric vehicles, Euler White Cat and Baojun KiWi EV both have high attention and good sales, and the two models have a cute Q cute in terms of appearance design, a sci-fi avant-garde, representing the two directions of the field. Through the comparison of the above aspects, we can also see that the advantages of the two models are different, among which the Euler White Cat has a larger external size, a more comprehensive functional configuration and a more generous rear seating space, while the Baojun KiWi EV has better power performance and better driving pleasure. In comparison, the Euler White Cat will be more practical and cost-effective, so in this round of duels, the final winner is the Euler White Cat.
