At the December 2021 Huawei winter flagship product conference, Yu Chengdong personally introduced the first SUV of the car brand AITO cooperated with Xilis "Ask the Boundary" M5, at first glance, he thought that Huawei was going to build a car (Ren Laozi said that Huawei would not build a car in three years), whether it was Huawei-led, Cyris OEM, or Cyris-led, Huawei is only deeply bound, in fact, it is difficult to judge who is dominant, but Huawei's deep involvement in the automotive industry ecosystem is an ironclad fact, Anyway, in the future, AITO's products will be sold in the Huawei mobile phone flagship store, so when the new car arrives, I will go to see what level this highly anticipated star car is.
Vientiane World is not far from my home, less than twenty minutes by car, the elevator out of the door is the floor-to-ceiling large glass Huawei mobile phone store, just "ask the boundary" M5 tail tribe into my eyes, there is a Porsche Macan feeling, it is said that this car from the design, production and sales of Huawei are deeply involved, my whole family is using Huawei products, There is a natural affinity for Huawei, quite looking forward to it.
From the shape to open, there is no particularly stunning place, the body length of 4770mm, the width of 1930mm, the body size is not large, the wheelbase is up to 2880mm, a proper medium-sized SUV size.
Interior
In the past two years, the design and workmanship of domestic brands of automobile interiors have advanced by leaps and bounds, the design of the M5 is a bit like Huawei's mobile phones and computer products, the appearance is not too amazing, but the selection of materials is exquisite, the workmanship is very textured, a little low-key and connotative taste, but I think it should be the opposite, stunning high-profile to attract everyone's attention is the usual way to improve brand awareness, maybe a little tacky, but as long as the method is easy to use the purpose to achieve it.
Open the car machine system, Hongmeng OS smart cockpit is undoubtedly the biggest highlight, OTA will constantly automatically update the version, the final delivery to the customer product is not necessarily the latest version, but certainly through countless tests to confirm a reliable version.
In order to test the 15.6-inch semi-suspension central control touch screen fluency, I constantly switch the menu interface, in and out of various subdirectories, back and forth, feel no difference with Huawei's latest mobile phone, click panel response quickly, and the menu up to three layers, you can also define the page APP, with the same use habits as the mobile phone, Hongmeng system can be seamless docking, in the navigation state, after getting off the car, the phone continues to automatically navigate, guiding the owner to walk to the destination.
The showroom of this car should be the highest configuration of the model, basically the competitors on the market have the functions, as for the L2 driver assistance system, power and driving control performance to really test drive to know how to perform.
Seats and space
The seat cushion is soft and hard, the support force reaches the same level, the body is shaken left and right, the coverage is not too good, and the salesman introduced me to the front ventilated seat with massage function, which is a surprise configuration on the tall.
Rear seats of course do not have this treatment, the rear seat cushion is relatively high, looking at the panoramic large skylight, invincible, to spit is the 2880mm wheelbase, the front seat backrest is too thick, make the rear leg space in general, feel that the rear row is like a big friend seat.
Powertrain
The M5 part adopts a 1.5T extended range engine, that is to say, the engine is only responsible for charging the power battery, the wheels are driven by the electric motor, and the whole driving principle is basically the same as the ideal one.
Because it is a plug-in hybrid, there is a fast charge and slow charge interface in the left tail of the body, and there is a fuel injection port in the same position on the right side, which can drive 1102km in the state of full oil and full power, and can drive 150km in pure electric mode, which is still very powerful from the parameter point of view, the most important long-distance running does not have to worry about no electricity, especially on holidays, the uncertainty factors of the charging pile in the high-speed service area are too many, and there are too many new energy brands that can be used to enjoy certain state subsidies.
There are three models available for reservation, the lowest version is the rear-drive standard version, equipped with a single motor, the maximum power is 200Kw, the maximum torque is 360Nm, and the total battery power of the sanyuanli is 40kWh.
The other two models use four-wheel drive, the four-wheel drive performance version of the front motor maximum torque of 420Nm, the back of my permanent magnet synchronous motor is 300Nm, the total torque output reached a staggering 720Nm, because in the real driving state, the body weight of more than 2.5 tons, is expected to accelerate 0-100km for 4.8 seconds, not particularly powerful.
The highest configuration of the four-wheel drive flagship version of the front motor torque output of 315Nm, the rear motor position 360Nm, 0-100km acceleration time of 4.4 seconds, although it is faster than the performance version, but only 0.4 seconds basically do not feel, the two cars are more of a difference in configuration, reflected in the price, is expected to be 25-32 million, this price is not worth it or the market has the final say.
summary
In actual use, acceleration is only a reference dimension, control, safety, failure rate, maintenance costs, and even second-hand car residual value are factors considered by consumers, Huawei is the absolute boss in the communications industry, this is an unquestionable fact, but in the automotive industry, Huawei or new Ding, AITO asked M5 is Huawei's half-off test of the water, Ren Lao to three years is not a long day, I hope that Huawei will continue to practice internal strength, add new brilliance to domestic car brands, I am a pollen, He is also an unswerving patriotic middle-aged man who wishes the motherland to become stronger and stronger and the people's lives to be better and better.
