Pure electric vehicles more or less have mileage anxiety, how do car companies alleviate the owner's maximum mileage "anxiety"? Their approach is simple and rude, from the beginning of the endurance of 300-400km, to the later 600-800km, and now the maximum cruising range of more than 800km models abound, and even more has made the maximum cruising range of more than 1000km. Is increasing the maximum range the most effective way? In fact, it is not, just like the fuel car, a tank of fuel endurance 600km owner is not in a hurry, many gas stations are very dense, the amount of fuel is not much, it is not a big deal to refuel, if the charging facilities and gas stations are as dense, is it not necessary to "hollow out" in terms of the maximum mileage? A range of 600km is enough. Therefore, increasing the maximum mileage of "changing the soup without changing the medicine" cannot eliminate the "anxiety disorder" of the maximum mileage of the owner. So, why do car companies increase the maximum mileage? The logic behind it is this: the cost of replacing large-capacity batteries is paid by the owner, and the cost of building charging facilities is paid by the car company. Which is cost-effective, at a glance.
Recently, GAC Aeon launched AION LX PLUS, the new car launched a total of 4 models, priced at 286,660-45.96 million yuan, the difference between the models is very large, especially the price of the top model of 459,600 yuan, but also broke through the price of new energy vehicles created by traditional car companies "ceiling", its biggest selling point is the top model of 459,600 yuan, it is equipped with a magazine battery, using sponge silicon anode plate battery technology, the maximum cruising range can reach 1008km. From the power level, the top model and the standard model of the power system is exactly the same, are 180kW / 350N · m permanent magnet / synchronous front motor, the chassis is also the front McPherson rear five-link structure, the difference in configuration is also very subtle, the biggest difference is the battery pack, a high capacity, a low capacity, the price difference is as high as 173,000 yuan, in line with what I said earlier "the cost of replacing the large-capacity battery is paid by the owner".
In addition to the standard and top models, the middle two models are to take the "performance model", they no longer follow the standard and top models of the single motor route, but replaced by the front and rear dual motors, the front motor alone is the front drive car, the front and rear dual motors work together is a four-wheel drive car, its system total power is 360kW, the total torque of the system is 700N ·m, 3.9 seconds to break the hundred, the maximum mileage is 600km.
In terms of body size, the AION LX PLUS has a length, width and height of 4835*1935*1685mm, and a wheelbase of 2920mm, positioning a mid-size SUV.
Like other new energy vehicles, the interior style of AION LX PLUS is also based on simplicity, the visual center of the center console is a 12.3-inch LCD dashboard and a 15.6-inch central control screen, there are not too many physical buttons and control knobs on the center console, and all functions are integrated on two large screens. Functionally, AION LX PLUS supports satellite navigation, voice recognition control, facial recognition, Internet of Vehicles and OTA upgrades, etc., which is decent in new energy vehicles, not lagging behind, nor leading. Its knob-type gearshift mechanism is very ceremonial, rising after power-on and falling after power outage, but this design is very common in Jaguar Land Rover's models, and for consumers, it has long lost its sense of surprise.
Its rear leg space is quite spacious, the whole series is equipped with rear seat backrest adjustment as standard, in addition to the standard model, the other 3 models are equipped with rear leg rest adjustment, improving ride comfort. Trunk volume is also very advantageous, but the position is slightly higher, which is also a "common disease" of many electric vehicles, some of the bottom of the trunk need to put the battery pack, some need to put the rear motor, affecting the height space of the trunk. So, are you bullish on the market performance of the AION LX PLUS?
