For pure electric vehicles, endurance has always been a bottleneck. Although slowly, the mainstream endurance threshold has come to 500 kilometers, and the winter endurance discount still makes consumers bitter. Just think, if it is a 1,000 km endurance, it will have no mileage anxiety like driving a fuel car.
A few days ago, GAC Aeon launched the world's first 1008km ultra-long endurance model - AION LX PLUS, launching a total of 80 Zhizun version, 80D flagship version, 80D Max version and Thousand Mile edition of four models, priced at 286,600-459,600 yuan after subsidies.
To achieve a thousand kilometers of endurance, it is inseparable from the technical difficulties. After 5 years of secret research, GAC Aeon has taken the lead in the industry to overcome the application problems of silicon anode materials in large power batteries, and has the world's first sponge silicon anode chip battery technology, with nearly 50 independent intellectual property rights patent technologies such as "nano composite silicon technology", "self-repairing adhesive technology" and "gradient composite coating technology". Equipped with these technologies, the AION LX Plus CLTC has a comprehensive working range of 1008km, becoming the world's first mass production car with a pure electric endurance of more than 1000km, marking the end of the pure electric endurance race and bringing real convenience to users.
Where is this new battery technology? Sponge silicon anode chip battery technology can make the silicon anode inside the cell as soft and elastic as a sponge, so that the expansion and contraction of silicon during charge and discharge is limited and buffered, and will not break. At the same time, it can also absorb water like a sponge, so that the silicon anode can exert the advantages of large capacity and store more energy. Thanks to the sponge silicon anode chip battery technology, the AION LX Plus battery has an energy density of more than 205Wh/kg in the whole package, achieving a large battery power of 144.4kWh and bringing 1008km cruising range in one fell swoop.
Today, when other car companies are still anxious about the delivery of the first-generation lidar, GAC Aeon directly equipped AION LX Plus with three second-generation intelligent zoom lidar.
The AION LX Plus, which has three second-generation lidars at the same time, has a 300° cross coverage field of view, a 10-30Hz dynamic adjustment of the environmental perception refresh rate, and a dynamic adjustment of vertical resolution of 0.2-0.05 °, giving the whole perceptual system a greater perceptual range, recognition speed and recognition accuracy.
In addition, AION LX Plus has 35 sensing hardware and a high-computing intelligent driving computing platform. Based on this, AION LX Plus supports the urban NDA intelligent pilot assisted driving function to achieve high-speed, urban full-scene coverage.
In terms of interior, AION LX Plus has added a white theme interior of Daystar, showing a light and luxurious atmosphere. In addition to the visual effects, the comfort configuration is equally rich. The AION LX Plus is equipped with Nappa leather seats, two rows of seat leg rests and a 10-speaker Alpine Master Tuned Speaker for a luxurious and comfortable space. Hidden electronic air outlets that intelligently control wind direction and wind power, and take into account the sense of technology when creating a luxurious atmosphere.
In terms of human-computer interaction, AION LX Plus is equipped with a 15.6-inch central control large screen and the latest ADiGO 4.0 intelligent IoT system, adding voice control driving mode, energy recovery, vehicle control, etc., greatly improving the human-computer interaction experience; the new Aeon car machine ecology, bringing rich software to enjoy life; at the same time, the new car is also upgraded with IBCM sensorless start, new AR real-life navigation, DMS+OMS cockpit monitoring intelligent technology configuration, the degree of intelligence is not lost to the new force of car building.
In terms of appearance, the AION LX Plus has not changed much compared to the old model, but it has added more dynamic design in details, making the whole car more refined. At the same time, the new car adds two new body colors, sky gray and pulse blue, and the former can present different colors under different angles of lighting, which is more fashionable.
In terms of services, AION LX Plus launched the "three electricity" and "vehicle" lifetime free warranty, lifetime free basic maintenance. In addition, AION LX Plus also provides lifetime free data traffic, free roadside assistance and other superior services. In addition, AION LX Plus also provides car owners with the industry's original door-to-door intelligent driving personal training service, which is more convenient for users to learn to use intelligent driving assistance systems.
In addition, users can also connect to the Aeon headquarters, roadside assistance, free installation of charging piles and OTA vehicle intelligent evolution services through the GAC EIAN APP, as well as the exclusive scooter service for car owners, and the entire service system can be said to take care of all aspects of the car.
Che Toujun believes that after the launch of AION LX Plus, which is comprehensively leading in products and services, GAC AEAN is expected to be more aggressive in 2022.
