#Where did the 45 disappeared cars go#Cross-border cooperation is not a new thing for car companies. But then again, looking at the past cases, it is mainly the linkage between products and products, and the focus is not on the brand level. However, Lantu Automobile recently announced that it will carry out in-depth cooperation with JD.com in the automotive ecology to jointly explore the new model and opportunities of "automobile + Internet", and it will also make a big fuss in Chinese New Year's Eve night. This is obviously different from the way we have seen cooperation in the past, because it is a linkage between two major enterprises. So what are the benefits of this cooperation for Lantu?
I think that before answering the question, we may wish to first understand Lantu Automobile, after all, Jingdong is already very familiar with it. Lantu Automobile, as a high-end electric vehicle brand that has only been born in recent years, stands behind the traditional car companies with more than 50 years of manufacturing experience, which belongs to the "national team" players. Therefore, Lan Tu's "background" should be deeper than "Wei Xiaoli". Of course, just by the background, we can't judge the strength of Lantu, in the final analysis, it still falls on the product, after all, this is what consumers care about most.
Lantu FREE positioning medium and large SUV, providing two power schemes of extended range version and pure electric version, the former is priced at 313,600, providing optional packages worth 20,000; the latter is priced at 333,600, providing optional packages worth 30,000, and there is also an urban pure electric vehicle model, priced at 348,600, the price is not cheap. So, how does Lantu FREE's actual product performance really do? Here, the author will take the four-wheel drive extended range version of the exclusive luxury suit version of Lantu FREE as an example to take you to understand.
Seeing this, there may be small partners who will ask, lantu FREE does not provide two power schemes with extended range and pure electricity? Why not talk about pure electricity? This involves the experience of using the car, because in the author's opinion, the extended range is more suitable for the current environment than pure electricity. Because the current charging infrastructure is not fully rolled out, there are also problems such as charging piles cannot work, and the exclusive parking space of charging piles is occupied by fuel vehicles.
The Lantu FREE extended range version of the model, in addition to being able to use charging piles to replenish energy, can also directly convert battery life by filling gasoline. Its range extender can consume No. 92 gasoline and continuously power the drive motor and battery. Because of this, its extended range version of the model does not produce mileage anxiety during long-distance driving. Nor will it be "lying down" because there is no charging pile to charge. In terms of endurance, according to official data, in the case of full fuel and full power, its NEDC comprehensive endurance can reach 860km, exceeding most pure fuel vehicles.
In addition, this Landu FREE also comes standard with air suspension, which also makes it more capable of passing in remote and highland areas. Of course, this can not be said that landu FREE has a strong off-road nature, because the main role of air suspension is to actively adjust the height of the body, alleviate and inhibit the impact caused by uneven road surfaces, and thus ensure the driving experience of the occupants in the car.
Not only that, lantu FREE extended range version can also meet the user's performance needs, which uses an AC/asynchronous dual motor system, the total power of the motor is 510kW, and the total torque of the motor is 1040N·m. In terms of data alone, the power performance of the Landu FREE extended range version is stronger than some V6 models. In terms of acceleration results, Landu FREE's 4.5 seconds to break the hundred results is the first in electric power and the fourth level in the world, and it is also very eye-catching in new energy vehicles.
Through the above aspects, it can be found that the actual product performance of the Landu FREE extended range version is still good, not only no mileage anxiety, but also a convenient form of supplementation, as well as strong performance. The air suspension is also equipped with higher comfort and better passing ability. Of course, more importantly, Lantu FREE can also be green carded and exempt from purchase tax, which is a big saving for consumers.
In general, as a high-end electric vehicle national team, Lantu Automobile has a good strength, which can be seen from the Lantu FREE extended range version. The practice of cooperation with JD.com, in my opinion, is nothing more than to further expand sales channels. After all, Lantu Automobile is currently choosing the direct operation mode of the new car-making forces. And Jingdong, as an e-commerce platform with relatively large user resources, the drainage ability is naturally unquestionable. Therefore, in my opinion, Lantu Automobile and JD.com, the most direct benefit is to allow more people to contact Lantu FREE, which is certainly beneficial and harmless to the growth of Lantu FREE's sales in the later stage, but how to cooperate, the official has not yet announced, we may wish to wait and see.
