Zero run T03
In the pure electric new energy market, A0-class models are a very important category. Through the combination of electrification upgrades and small bodywork, it has become an excellent choice for daily transportation in large cities. In the pure electric new energy market in 2021, A0-class models will account for most of the sky.
Among them, the zero-run T03 model has become a dark horse that none of us predicted, and by the end of last year, the micro-pure electric vehicle listed in May 2020 had delivered a total of 34,618 units, and the order volume last year exceeded 50,000 units. Its hot sales also made zero-run cars rank 7th in the sales list of new car-making forces last year.
On the whole, it is enough to show that this small and exquisite model is really loved by users, so why is this car so popular? This time, titanium media App on the 2022 zero-run T03 test drive, it has been upgraded in terms of performance, intelligence and battery life, see if this car can meet your expectations.
Vehicle design
In the A0-level pure electric new energy camp, most brands will design their models as cute as possible to win the favor of female users. However, among the users who choose this type of model, there are also many male users, elderly users and novice users who pay attention to daily commuting. At this time, the particularly cute shape is not so popular.
The overall design of the zero-run T03, the author feels that it is a balance between cute, technological and urban styles, and different colors can have different styles, which can meet the aesthetic needs of more users.
Front face design
In the front part of the vehicle, the zero-run T03 chose two oval headlights with a curved style front, the front face design is relatively gentle, and the middle net adopts a fully enclosed design.
The two headlights partially integrate the functions of day running lights, low beams, high beams and turn signals, and the zero-run T03 also has an automatic headlight function, so it does not design independent light buttons in the cockpit position, but places its adjustment options in the central control screen.
Below the center LOGO is the charging interface, zero-run T03 charging efficiency, in the AC slow charging mode, the battery charge from 30% to 80% takes 3.5 hours, DC fast charging takes at least 36 minutes. In addition, in slow charging mode, it has a timed charging function.
2400mm wheelbase
Zero-run T03 body length, width and height dimensions are 3620/1652/1592mm, wheelbase is 2400mm, from the level point of view, is a mini car, but belongs to the body of the large mini car. Moreover, the new models are equipped with multiple 15-inch aluminum alloy wheels and disc brakes as standard, and only high-end models are equipped with old models.
Rear space
Compared with the A0-level competitors at the price of 100,000 yuan, the zero-run T03 still has a big advantage in the rear space, the height of the model in the picture above is about 165, and there is still a lot of room for head and leg space.
Tail design
The taillights of the Zero Run T03 use a full LED light source, which has a better visual effect and texture than the headlight group. The taillights on both sides are connected by a piano lacquered decorative panel, on which is the English logo LEAPMOTOR of the zero-running car.
Interior design
The interior design of the 2022 zero-run T03 is a simple style, which is a popular design trend nowadays, and a central control large screen and a full LCD instrument basically cover the functions of the whole car. In addition, the 2022 model also provides five interior colors of all gray, purple gray, black and blue, green gray and green orange, which can meet the tastes of any crowd.
8 inch LCD meter
Even the most entry-level model, the 2022 Zero-Run T03 is equipped with a full LCD instrument and a 10.1-inch central control screen, while practical basic features such as automatic headlights, reversing images and reversing radar are not absent.
After the revamp, the gear handle of the 2022 Zero Run T03 adopts a pocket block design. At the same time, the mechanical handbrake was replaced with an electronic handbrake, and the AutoHold function was integrated. Such a configuration is placed on the zero-run T03 positioned at 100,000 yuan, which will still make people feel that there is a feeling of "value for money".
10.1 inch HD touch screen
The 10.1-inch central control screen performs well in terms of smooth operation and functional integration, including driving mode, air conditioning, lighting, charging, interconnection, etc. However, because there is no obvious touch feedback, common operating functions such as air conditioning cannot be "blind exercise", but can be adjusted through the voice function.
In particular, the size of the central control is large, and for the driver, it feels that about 10% of the screen viewing angle will be blocked by the steering wheel. The proportions are harmless, but they only aggravate the mentality of staring at the screen operation.
Smooth operation of the car machine
The center control menu of the zero-run T03 adopts the most traditional bottom Doc bar + air conditioner, and the overall design of the multi-stage display of the upper function. In terms of the fluency of the operation is still good, but in the process of opening a certain function, the delay is still perceived, such as when clicking into the map and other functions.
Voice navigation
The intelligent upgrade of technology is also one of the key points of the 2022 zero-run T03, which is equipped with an upgraded voice control function, which has greatly improved the recognition rate and fuzzy voice input. During the navigation process, by blurring words, the car automatically selects the destination, and the entire dialogue interaction is quite responsive.
Voice-controlled vehicle function
In addition to some information voice queries, zero-run T03 can also adjust the functions in the car through voice, and actions such as switching on and off air conditioners, switching lights and opening and closing windows can be realized. However, during the test, the author seems to be unable to adjust the temperature of the air conditioner, which still needs to be improved.
Overall, the zero-run T03 is positioned in the 100,000 yuan A0-class market, but its technology configuration is indeed very high, especially the cockpit part, breaking the tradition of small cars only focusing on cost performance, and providing a new choice for users who want to experience intelligent travel.
Driving experience
It has a maximum power of 80 kW in its class
The 2022 model of the Zero-Run T03 has undergone a key upgrade in terms of power, and its entry-level model still has an electric power of 55 kW and a maximum torque of 155 N·m. In the other versions of the four specifications, the maximum power is increased to 80kW, the maximum torque of 158N·m specifications, in the same class of competitors have more advantages.
In terms of batteries, the 2022 zero-run T03 full range of models is equipped with high-performance lithium iron phosphate batteries, the energy density of the battery system reaches 136.6Wh/kg, the battery capacity of the entry-level model is 31.9kWh, and the comprehensive working range of NEDC is 301 kilometers. The battery pack capacity of the remaining models is 41 kWh, and the comprehensive operating range of NEDC is 403 km.
Three driving modes
Zero-run T03 has 3 different driving modes, namely standard, sport and economy mode, which is widely used in the driving habits of non-drivers, providing better choices according to different car use scenarios.
L2 level intelligent driver assistance can be realized
In the actual driving process, the driving performance of the zero-run T03 is indeed better than other competitors in the same level, whether it is starting to accelerate, or overtaking in the driving is more comfortable, coupled with the body is relatively small, the steering is flexible, the driving is brisk and dexterous, and it can be driven well in the city.
The maximum speed can reach 110km/h when driving on high-speed roads, but due to cost limitations, NVH performance needs to be improved, and after the speed exceeds 80km/h, the wind noise is more obvious.
At the same time, the zero-run T03 also supports L2-level intelligent driver assistance functions, and its whole vehicle has 1 millimeter wave radar, 1 monocular camera, 11 ultrasonic sensors and 15 high-precision sensors. Driving can do a series of functions including active lane following, adaptive cruise, low-speed automatic follow, front collision warning and so on.
In actual use, the intelligent driving assistance function of the zero-run T03 is still a relatively "robust" style. For the car, the braking performance is relatively calm, the sudden sharp braking situation is very rare, unless it encounters a too close parallel situation, the vehicle itself will use a more aggressive braking action. In the acceleration process, although it improves the dynamic performance, the overall performance of intelligent driving assistance is still relatively soft, even if it encounters unexpected situations, the driver can have more reaction time.
Automatic parking function
In addition to the L2 level intelligent driving assistance function, Zero Run also added an automatic parking function to the T03 car, although it is not large and can be parked in a limited space. However, considering female users and novice users, Zero Run has added an automatic parking function to it.
The automatic parking function switch of the zero-run T03 is on the multi-function steering wheel, after clicking on the function, the parking space below 10km/h will be automatically recognized, and the next step will be confirmed in the central control screen after successful recognition. The overall recognition rate is still very high, as long as the distance between the vehicle and the parking space is maintained, it can basically be scanned.
Automatic parking demonstration
Similar to the parking environment in the picture above, the Zero-Run T03 can complete automatic parking with a small body and basically two wheels. This feature adds a lot of intelligent genes to this daily car, and at the same time, it also makes this car suddenly different from those "old man music" who only rely on low prices to attract customers. At present, the automatic parking efficiency that can achieve such a performance within 100,000 years seems to be only zero-run T03.
summary
For the author, because I live in Beijing, a congested city, I still have a lot of good feelings about small pure electric new energy models such as zero-run T03. However, the A0-class and A00-level pure electric new energy products on the market generally pursue the addition ratio, and there are not many options to meet the performance, intelligence and high endurance.
After this test drive of the 2022 zero-run T03, the author's love for it has risen sharply, although it is not large, but it has better performance, more interior space and higher endurance.
The combination of many aspects has made him a more exquisite A0-class pure electric new energy choice. The 2022 zero-run T03 well meets all the characteristics of the big city scooter that needs to be provincial, flexible, good-looking and sufficient.
