Because of the hot sales of Hongguang MINIEV (parameter | inquiry | picture), many manufacturers have seen the potential of mini cars, and have also greatly released everyone's demand for mini cars. But Hongguang MINIEV audience is limited after all, the quality of the car can only meet the basic needs, for users with higher commuting quality needs, Hongguang MINIEV is definitely too beginner, so Wuling launched NanoEV, the Great Wall with the help of Euler to bring good cats, today to share with you also in August to meet with us the new Baojun KiWi EV.
KiWi EV is relatively simple to divide the entire car series, and there are currently two models on sale, namely 69,800 designers and 78,800 artists. From the price point of view, KiWi EV directly competes with "old" players such as Euler Black Cat and Chery Little Ant, so what are the highlights of KiWi EV compared to them, or how is the product strength of KiWi EV? Today, let's take a look.
For most consumers, the value of the face is undoubtedly the "stepping stone" to open the market, and the overall styling design of the KiWi EV is quite eye-catching and appears very personal. Specifically, the rounded rectangular headlights are fully recognizable, and the "golden photo booth" on the front bar not only enriches the visual effect, but also provides a good posing angle for the little sister who likes to take pictures, which is more practical.
The vision shifts to the side section of the KiWi EV and it can be found that the combination of the suspension design + hidden door handle brings a nice futuristic feeling. The rich double carpool paints such as obsidian, emerald, clear sky, rouge, cream, etc., also bring a good sense of fashion; in terms of size, the length, width and height of kiWi EV are 2894/1655/1595mm, and the wheelbase is 2020mm.
Like the front face and the side, the rear of the KiWi EV is also not lacking in highlights, the rear windshield with rounded rectangular design looks very rounded, and the built-in left and right side light groups are highly recognizable. The design of the rear surround echoes the front of the car, and also uses rounded rectangular trim strips to highlight the integrity of the whole vehicle. In general, in terms of appearance, I personally think that the appearance of KiWi EV is quite high, and the futuristic, technological shape can also cater to the aesthetics of most young consumers.
Entering the front row, we can find that the interior of the KiWi EV is as prominent as the exterior, and the design is very prominent. The entire center console follows the design idea of "doing subtraction", integrates all display functions into the 10.25-inch suspension LCD instrument, and cooperates with the double-spoke steering wheel to create a good sense of technology. In addition, black / gold, gray / silver two kinds of interior color, users can choose according to their own preferences, the former is more high-end, the latter is slightly light and luxurious; it is worth noting that KiWi EV uses more than 20% of the rice straw plant fiber interior material, with a unique wheat smell, and has the advantages of low volatility and no odor, which is more pleasing.
Not only that, kiWi EV also has leather seats, which feel and feel good, and the comfort is not bad. In terms of space, although the size of the KiWi EV is not very large, in terms of actual tests, the author who is 175cm tall still has a relatively spacious space left in the front row. The passenger seat also has a one-button entry and exit handle, which is convenient for passengers to enter and exit the rear seat, and the rear seat supports to be put down, and if there is a slightly larger item, it can also be placed.
In terms of battery life, the KiWi EV is equipped with a lithium iron phosphate power battery with a total capacity of 31.9 kWh, and the NEDC has a cruising range of 305km, which is enough to meet the needs of daily commuting. The high-power motor with it, using the rear layout, the maximum power of 40kW, the maximum torque of 150N · m, in terms of actual test drive, the start is relatively fast, the front section of the power is very abundant, the middle and rear section is slightly weak, but there is not much problem in dealing with the passage in the city. In addition, the front McPherson-rear double cross-arm four-wheel solo combination is not only a rare configuration level in the same class, but also improves the driving texture.
In terms of charging, in addition to supporting conventional AC ac slow charging, KiWi EV also provides DC DC fast charging, fast charging time 1h, can charge 80% of the power. In addition, the KiWi EV also supports 220V three-pin socket charging, further reducing travel costs. It is worth mentioning that the KiWi EV can also discharge externally, and when users travel in the wild, they can use high-power appliances such as power bottles and induction cookers to rescue vehicles and reverse charge other "nest" trams, but only artist models have them.
For artist models, KiWi EV also offers an optional smart driving package with adaptive cruise, full-scene remote parking, 360° panoramic imagery, active braking and more. Among them, the adaptive cruise function can be actively followed by the car, active start and even braking operation on high-speed and urban roads; while the full-scene remote parking function can be actively completed for different parking scenes, such as underground garages, surface parking lots and other scenarios, and users can operate in three ways through the keys, keys, and mobile phone APP in the car.
In summary, it is not difficult to find that KiWi EV not only has a higher appearance, battery life and power can also meet the needs of most consumer cities commuting, and the richer intelligent configuration can also provide better convenience. Although it has many disadvantages, such as limited absolute space and insufficient re-acceleration ability when driving at high speeds, it should be flawed in general. For users whose main car use scenario is the city, and there is a higher demand for commuting quality, then the KiWi EV is a mini car worthy of key consideration.
