Reports from The GreatAuto

There is such a type of model, which is deeply loved by the grandparents, and is almost publicized by the riders as a "baby artifact", they are "big six-seat models". There are two types of SUVs and MPVs, if it is an unlimited green car, it is even more popular, after all, no one will refuse an unlimited, do not delay the transfer of children to kindergarten big guy.

At this point, you can probably understand why the ideal ONE last year will be so hot, it has almost all the qualities necessary for the dad car, and the entertainment screen in the car can also solve the big problem that children are reluctant to sit in the car, coupled with the inherent low energy consumption characteristics of the extender, even if it is not charged and only refueled, the cost of the car is significantly lower than that of the traditional fuel "nanny car".

However, for more families, the ideal ONE is still too expensive, and the starting price of 338,000 yuan has even been equal to the price range of the main models of luxury brands such as BBA.

So, are there any cheaper six-seater baby artifacts? Is it best to choose a green model?

There are many consumers who have paid attention to the upcoming BYD Song MAX DM-i, as well as the Geely Jiaji Platinum Edition PHEV that has just been listed, these two models are green-brand PHEV models, but also have a large 6-seat layout, but also support automatic assisted driving and central control intelligent large screen and other configurations, considering that the price range is not much different, then, how should they choose?

Feeder fuel consumption of Jiaji P2.5 architecture

Not much higher than the BYD DM-i

In terms of body size, we take the topmost body parameters of the two cars in 2022 as a comparison, we can see that after the Song MAX DM-i installed the roof "upgraded roof", the overall three-dimensional size and Jiaji on the basis of the same level, the head height advantage is more obvious, the 1880mm body height is significantly better than the Jiaji PHEV's 1713mm. This also means that when taking children in and out of the second and third rows, including some non-sitting movements in the car, the activity space of song MAX DM-i "upgrade roof" is more dominant.

Of course, Jiaji PHEV also has its own advantages, such as the wheelbase reflecting the longitudinal length space, its 2805mm wheelbase is slightly longer than the 2785mm of song MAX DM-i, and the legroom will be slightly more comfortable when riding.

The space is similar, the seat layout is similar, and even the price is not much different. The core difference is only the difference between power perception and fuel consumption, which is related to whether driving is good or not, and whether to worry about the later stage of car maintenance.

BYD's DM-i system is honest and really good at playing. Even when placed on such a large-size MPV as the Song MAX DM-i Top Executive Edition, the energy consumption performance is still amazing.

The data shows that even if it is not charged, its feed fuel consumption is only 4.5 liters per 100 kilometers, and it also has a maximum power of 145 kilowatts, a maximum power of 325 Nm drive motor, in the initial and middle section of the speed up, feel no less than some traditional large-displacement models, it can be said that the performance and energy consumption have achieved the level of fish and bear paws.

At the same time, thanks to the extreme squeeze of the blade battery for cost and space, in the limited space of the vehicle chassis, BYD also stuffed a large battery pack of up to 18.3 kWh for it, corresponding to the NEDC pure electric mileage of up to 105 kilometers, and also supported 30 minutes of DC fast charging to 80% of the external charging capacity, the performance is extremely strong.

However, this does not mean that Geely Jiaji PHEV can not be played, although from the book point of view, its P2.5 architecture hybrid system is not as advanced as DM-i, but in Geely's more advantageous internal combustion engine hardware and post-tuning, its performance is not bad.

The data shows that jiaji PHEV feeder fuel consumption of 5 liters per 100 kilometers, only 0.5 liters more than song MAX DM-i's 4.5 liters per 100 kilometers of the gap, considering that the top of the model vehicle price is cheaper, the overall car maintenance cost difference is not much.

In addition, although Jiaji PHEV does not use a "blade battery" and does not have the advantage of a structured module, under the innate advantage that the energy density of the ternary lithium material itself is greater than that of lithium iron phosphate, it has also successfully achieved a 15.5 kWh battery pack in the limited space of the chassis, corresponding to the NEDC pure electric endurance of 82 kilometers, which can also meet the daily pure electric transportation needs.

In terms of power, because of the P2.5 structure limitations, the drive motor of Jiaji PHEV is less than that of Song MAX DM-i in terms of power and torque; but at the same time, because of the advantages of the P2.5 architecture, when the owner needs rapid power, the energy of its hybrid output is not weaker than that of the DM-i system, and the maximum hybrid output power of 190 kilowatts and the mixed output torque of up to 415 Nm are enough to support the smooth acceleration experience of Jiaji PHEV.

In other words, BYD Song MAX DM-i in the city road conditions, performance more like a pure electric model, hybrid is only its means to save fuel consumption, reduce endurance anxiety; and Geely's Jiaji PEHV, in any working conditions, is more like a pure hybrid model, you do not have to deliberately care about fuel consumption, it can always give you a smooth experience of fuel vehicles, and fuel consumption is not high, as long as you have charging conditions, the more charged, the lower the fuel consumption.

Automatic assisted driving

There is also room for improvement of the Song MAX DM-i

Compared with space and power, as a nanny car for families with babies, safety is also the top priority of purchase.

Under the existing passive safety conditions, it is difficult to say that there will be qualitative differences in the safety of the body structure between the two cars, and even the performance of the airbags on the books is not much different, and the airbag protection is basically achieved in all directions.

The only core difference is the proactive security level.

First of all, Jiaji PHEV, which adopts the geely brand's universal automatic assisted driving solution, has reached the L2+ level capability, has the core functions of intelligent pilot driving, urban pre-collision safety, etc., and the autopilot assistance of the commercially praised Geely car series, Lynk & Co, Volvo, Pole Star and other brand models is at the same level of performance, which is very safe and very reassuring.

The only fly in the ointment is the lack of an automatic parking function, which may be almost interesting for the mothers who carry their babies alone.

Of course, bydir Song MAX DM-i also does not have automatic parking function, so there is no need to compare who is good and who is broken.

In terms of automatic driving assistance, although BYD Song MAX DM-i's autopilot assistance system has also reached the level of L2, it is still slightly different from the actual performance of Jiaji PHEV. Although the core full-speed domain ACC, lane centering and other functions are available, but in our previous test drive, there are still some flaws, to see if BYD has the possibility of OTA continued optimization in the later stage.

However, BYD's intelligence is not so lost to Geely. In fact, in terms of vehicle intelligence, BYD's Dlink system is currently almost the head benchmark level of domestic brands, and it performs better in terms of system response speed, voice recognition control capabilities, expansion of application stores, and playability of car machines.

Therefore, in terms of intelligence, the two cars are also equal in the strict sense, BETTER THAN BYD's in-car intelligence, and Geely's automatic driving assistance performance is better.

Therefore, in the final car purchase suggestion, we believe that consumers can stand on their own actual needs to choose, if more attention is paid to intelligent driving for the improvement of safety, Geely Jiaji PHEV is a better choice. Conversely, if you trust your driving skills enough and prefer low fuel consumption and low cost, BYD Song MAX DM-i is a better choice.
