As one of the three major domestic new power brands, ideal has been able to play with Weilai and Xiaopeng in the past year with the "ideal ONE" model, which is enough to see that its own product strength is relatively strong.
But "one trick to eat all over the sky" is obviously not a long-term solution. As a result, the ideal second model, the Ideal X01, began fermentation and preheating.
Compared with the road test spy photos of "Ideal X01" that were previously circulated, the parameter configuration and time to market of "Ideal X01" have been further exposed.
According to the news obtained so far, the "Ideal X01" is positioned as a full-size large 6-seat SUV with a pricing range of about 400,000, and the benchmark model is Mercedes-Benz GLS. When seeing this information, presumably many netizens will say: Where does the ideal come from to dare to benchmark mercedes-benz GLS with a price of more than one million?
Indeed, in terms of history and brand influence, the ideal is far less powerful than Mercedes-Benz, but when it comes to technological precipitation and market prospects in the field of new energy, Mercedes-Benz is far less than ideal.
The data shows that the ideal X01 has reached 5150/1980/1800mm in body size and a wheelbase of 3100mm, and the ideal X01 is more than the Land Rover Range Rover known for its "big" in terms of size performance, directly reaching the level of Mercedes-Benz GLS. In addition, it cancels the traditional structure of the gearbox, so that the 2 to 3 rows of space in the car are released to the greatest extent.
At the same time, in order to make the occupants of the car feel better, the ideal X01 also adopts the suspension combination of the front double wishbones and the rear five connecting rods, and the biggest advantage of this suspension combination is that it has a strong shock filter, even if it is not paved, it can ensure the stability of the body.
It is worth mentioning that the ideal X01 may be paired with the German Air Suspension System of Wybaker, which also ensures the comfort of the occupants of the car to a large extent. Of course, this system is only expected to appear on some models with medium and high equipment.
As a new energy model, the configuration of the car machine has always been one of the most concerned points for users.
Judging from the information currently revealed, the ideal X01 will be equipped with Qualcomm's 8155 chip, which can realize five-screen interconnection including the center console OLED dual screen, HUD TouchBar, and two-row screen, which is also a great progress compared to the ideal ONE.
In terms of intelligent assisted driving, the ideal X01 is also unambiguous. The new car is equipped with a dedicated Orin-X chip including an AP controller horizon J3+J5 chip and an SP controller, 12 ultrasonic radars and 8M cameras, 5 millimeter-wave radars, a 128-line lidar and DMS.
With the blessing of so much autonomous driving hardware, it is not a problem for the ideal X01 to theoretically become the first model in China to meet the requirements of L4 level assisted driving. However, because China's road environment is relatively more complex, the relevant policies and regulations have not yet been opened to L4 assisted driving.
In terms of powertrain, the much-maligned three-cylinder engine has finally been replaced by a four-cylinder engine, and will be OEM by xinchen power, which is undoubtedly good news for those ideal fans.
The ideal X01 will use the second generation of range platform, the new replacement of the New Chen Power 1.5T four-cylinder engine will replace the position of the previous Dongan Power 1.2T three-cylinder engine, and the use of front and rear dual motors to drive the vehicle, the power of the front and rear motors are 130Kw, 200Kw, the peak torque is 200N·m, 450N·m, due to the use of dual motors, so that the new car can complete 0-100km/h acceleration in 3.8 seconds.
In terms of mileage, the new car is equipped with a battery pack with a capacity of 44.5kWh, which supports fast charging function, and the charging time of 20%-80% is shortened to 36 minutes. In the pure electric mode, the 200KM endurance of the new car can be guaranteed, and the fuel tank volume of 65L can produce 820Km of fuel life, making the comprehensive cruising range of the new car go to 1020km. This achievement also alleviates the user's mileage anxiety disorder.
On the whole, the comprehensive strength of the ideal X01 is still relatively capable in today's market environment. The perfect vehicle configuration and excellent chassis system make the ideal X01 far ahead of the domestic new energy products. And these are also the bases for positioning the Mercedes-Benz GLS against the target players.
