Introduction | starts from scratch and should not be underestimated
Since its delivery in October 2021, the Zero-Run C11 has quickly become an internet celebrity model. In January this year, 2,103 vehicles were delivered, helping Zero Run to conquer the fifth place of the new forces, second only to Xiao Liwei and Nezha.
Che Jujun, a former colleague, planted grass after seeing the C11 at the Shanghai Auto Show. After the booking, in order to pick up the car as soon as possible, I even wanted to go to a fish platform to buy the first batch of orders. January finally picked up the car, just in time for the annual electric vehicle winter endurance test project, so we started first!
How about zero-run C11 battery life and intelligence? Let's take a look at the actual measurements:
▲Measured zero running C11, can run 380km in winter
It is about 16 minutes long and is recommended for viewing under Wi-Fi
1 Stable endurance performance, winter discount rate of 66.7%
The test is the zero run C11 premium version, the original price of 179,800, colleagues bought another 10,000 yuan optional bag, so the total price came to 189,800. Optional includes 20-inch aluminum alloy sports wheels, Nappa leather seats, main driver waist support electric 4-way adjustment, steering wheel heating... It is said that 80% of users will choose.
The C11 battery uses a ternary lithium battery of 90 degrees, the NEDC has a range of 610km, and the actual full display is 599km. We charged the WEIlai supercharging station in Anting, Shanghai, and set off for Rugao, Jiangsu Province.
The previous test end point was near Yancheng, so that the power consumption was close to 0, counting the outbound performance; fully charged, and then tested the return trip. The C11's battery life is too long, and we decided to use the round-trip running method, measuring only one charging mileage.
5-6 degrees on departure, this temperature is still quite cold in the winter in Shanghai. Sensitive people will freeze red noses, and the body feels close to 0 degrees in the north. There were two people in the car, according to normal driving habits, talking and laughing quickly arrived at the destination: the Olympic Park in Rugao, Jiangsu Province.
The first section of the journey is 171.3km, 90% high-speed, the average energy consumption is 22.8kWh/100km, and the average speed is 68km/h. The endurance of the table display has changed from 599km to 355km, a decrease of 244km. Well, the discount rate for this stretch of the journey is 70.2%, which is good and slightly exceeds our expectations.
However, as far as the previous test experience is concerned, the second half of the endurance of some models is relatively collapsed.
In addition, colleagues have to go to Hongqiao to catch the train station, so driving is more intense, which is a challenge for endurance. The average speed should be around 100km/h, and the reason why it is uncertain is because the navigation phone is out of power. That is to say, the power of zero-run C11 wireless charging is not enough to support the power consumed by normal navigation.
The second section of the return journey, after arriving in Anting, the table shows a range of 106 km, a cruising range of 249 km, and the actual driving is 163 km, and the discount rate of this section is 65.5%. It seems that the speed will indeed affect the endurance, but in the case of running all the way, this endurance is still relatively solid, and it is slightly beyond expectations.
Combining the outbound and return journeys, the show endurance discount rate of this high-speed trip is 67.7%.
The third stage is to return the car. Carry colleagues from Anting to Hongqiao, and then return the car from Hongqiao to the city. This tour has some highways/elevated roads, long tunnels, and daily traffic light roads, a total of 55km. The endurance of the table was also reduced from 106km to the final 27km, and the test was over. Then the discount rate for this section of endurance is 69.6%.
To tell the truth, Che Jujun was still surprised after seeing the results. Zero-run C11 runs within 100km, the endurance is still firm, not like some lithium iron phosphate cars, cliff-like fall. And it is more linear than the general ternary lithium battery, closer to the real-time scene.
For example, the North Horizontal Passage is a newly built long underground passage, there is no traffic light, coupled with less traffic, the car has been moving at an average speed of 60km per hour, and the endurance can actually rise by one kilometer.
This precise BMS algorithm has a fight with Tesla.
In this way, after a full day of testing, the watch display endurance of this zero-run C11 ranged from 599km to 599km fully charged, and finally the remaining 27km was reduced by 572km. The corresponding actual mileage is 389km. Well, its full table endurance discount rate is 68.0%.
Considering that the NEDC advertised by the zero-run C11 is 610km, not the fully charged 599km, its NEDC endurance discount rate is: 66.7%.
Some people will ask, why distinguish between the "apparent" endurance discount rate and the "NEDC" battery life discount rate?
Because each has its own uses. When buying a car, everyone will think, the manufacturer advertises THE NEDC 610km, how many kilometers can it actually run? How much do I have to discount in winter? Can I buy it? Now the answer is: about 380km; if the endurance is 0, you can run for early 400km.
But when using a car, everyone will only care about the 599km of the table, how much can it actually run? This is related to how to plan the intermediate charging when running long distances. It turns out that the zero-run C11 full charge allows you to drive from Shanghai's People's Square to the center of Yancheng City, and there are still dozens of kilometers left.
How much more can I run when the table is 106km? Will you be able to keep dropping people off at the train station, or do you have to go to charge them first? Facts have proved that the power of the tail section of zero-run C11 is still "used", with a 40% discount on the opening and a 30% discount on the mild opening. This way you don't have to charge it first, so as not to waste a rare Spring Festival train ticket.
Let's take a look at the segmented endurance of the zero-run C11. The front section shows a discount rate of 68.6%, a mid-section endurance discount rate of 72.3%, a discount rate of 66.2% in the back section, and 68.8% in the tail section, and the overall performance is quite stable.
If you must subdivide, there is such a law: the most power-saving is the middle section, then the leap Pilot is used on the high speed, and the machine driving is smoother and more predictable than manual driving, so the energy consumption is lower. Secondly, the manual opening of the highway in the front section and the manual opening of the urban area in the tail section are comparable in energy consumption. The highest power consumption is in the back section, because there are a large number of urban starts and stops, high-speed manual driving and rushing conditions. Again, the high-speed is not necessarily more expensive than the urban area, completely depending on the congestion and your opening method.
In general, the energy consumption of zero-run C11 in each section is very balanced, especially in the tail section, not only did not collapse, but even the lowest energy consumption and the highest discount rate of endurance, which is rare in recent tests.
Here is a list of the mainstream electric vehicles that Chejujun has measured in recent years, basically similar test conditions, the difference is not bad, the most important influencing factor is the weather. A simple rule is that in the winter of the Yangtze River Delta, if the temperature is around 5 degrees, then the discount rate of electric vehicles is generally between 50% and 60%.
It can be seen that if you ignore the difference in weather, the endurance performance of the zero-run C11 is the best.
2 Static and dynamic, zero run C11 anti-hit?
The appearance is for everyone to see for themselves. The overall style is between the universal style of traditional car companies and the radical wind of new forces, which is round and not exaggerated, concise and not monotonous. Not amazing, but quite resistant.
The design of the zero-run C11 does not have the "embryonic feeling" of Tesla, nor does it adopt the "nightclub style" like other new forces, but the warm "home style". For example, the steering wheel and the center control are wrapped in leather, and the color is between gray and purple, which has a calm texture and does not look frivolous, just right.
The biggest highlight of the interior is the triple screen, equipped with a 10.25-inch dashboard and a 12.8-inch central control screen. When cornering and hitting directions, the screen displays a live-action image of the turned side, and the resolution is good. The most special thing is that the co-pilot also has a 10.25-inch entertainment screen, which can realize the master driver control and the co-driver entertainment without delay.
Some people may ask: When the co-driver watches the video, will it not affect the main driver?
The answer is no, because it comes with an original Bluetooth headset. Open the storage box under the large screen, which has a set of customized Bluetooth headphones, and automatically play the sound of the entertainment screen after opening. There are also special storage and charging ports.
Before it's over, there's another treasure in this storage box: the original mobile phone stand! After pulling it out, it can support the online navigation of most mobile phones, is it very user-friendly?!
Good places are praised, and bad places can not be let go.
Che Jujun set the air conditioner at 27 degrees, but the actual body feeling is only about 21 degrees of Tesla, and the seat heating and steering wheel heating are also relatively cold. This practice may be to ensure battery life, but since it is included in the 10,000 yuan optional bag, it should still reflect a little luxury, right?
There is also a slot point, there are several emergencies encountered during the drive, Che Jujun and colleagues rushed to find emergency warning lights. In the end, I found that it was set on the ceiling, and there was still some reflection from the main driver position, which was not easy to find! Unfamiliar friends may be at a loss for a moment.
Although they are all minor issues, they are related to convenience and security, and we still hope to improve.
Mechanical qualities are not said. The start of the C11 is very linear, with the performance of electric vehicles; but it does not have the sharp feeling of Tesla, and the feeling of pushing back is not obvious, indicating that it is more inclined to the home orientation.
However, when driving manually at high speeds, it will inadvertently go from 90km/h to 120km/h, and the power reserve in the middle and rear sections is still very sufficient. It is low speed like natural inhalation, high speed like turbocharging.
The brakes are linear and heel-foot. There was a sudden accident on the highway, about 100 meters away from us, and after stepping on the brake, it was found that the braking distance was shorter than expected, even shorter than the braking distance of Tesla.
Turning to the middle review, very sensitive but lacking some sticky feel, slight swing will have too clever reaction, if you can balance the sensitivity and stability, it is better.
Suspension is a highlight, as it is equipped with a rare front double wishbones and rear multi-link in its class. When passing the speed bump, it is very neat and crisp, the overall amplitude and bounce are also well controlled, the only small regret is that the shock is too brittle, if there is more delicate feeling and texture, it will be closer to the level of luxury cars.
Zero-run C11 is known as a full-stack self-developed self-manufacturing, one of the major selling points is equipped with the self-developed Lingxin 01 chip.
The corresponding driver assistance hardware is: 10 cameras, 1 forward binocular camera on the outer windshield, 1 driver's face recognition camera in the driver's seat, and 4 blind spot detection and 4 surround view. In addition, it is equipped with 12 ultrasonic radars and 5 millimeter-wave radars. The number of sensing elements can be up to 27.
Just looking at the book is quite powerful, how about actual driving use? Overall good, but with the following slots:
After opening the ACC, when a car in front of it is far away, when the deceleration is close to about 100 meters, the system suddenly comes to a very obvious brake, and the human body involuntarily leans forward. However, when encountering high-speed traffic jams, it is kept close to the distance in front of the car, causing certain psychological pressure to the driver.
The LCC lane center remains too sensitive. For example, if the turn signal is turned on, the system exits immediately. There are two kinds of automatic lane changes on the market, Tesla is a unique "light lane change", most models allow manual lane changes without exiting after lights, and automatically bite the new lane after entering the new lane. Obviously, the zero-run C11 is the third.
This situation may be related to the fact that the zero-run C11 lane change assist function is not enabled, and it is still in a gray state, and perhaps it can be improved after OTA.
On the way, in the lane line and good light conditions, Che Jujun just opened the LCC, it inexplicably flashed back, some people can not understand.
Not only these sensitivities, after opening the ACC and LCC, on the way encountered a large truck, Che Jujun in order to ensure safety, deliberately turned the steering wheel slightly to the left, the result of the system automatically exited.
In particular, the assisted driver exit prompt tone is small, and it is not an independent sound, which is controlled by the amount of music. Then when the music is very low, the driver is likely to have an accident without knowing that the LCC has exited.
This can refer to Cadillac Super Cruise, which not only separates the prompt tone, but also formulates the bright strip and seat vibration to the disc, reminding from the three aspects of hearing, vision and touch, ensuring that the machine exit and manual takeover are seamless.
It is strongly recommended that zero run improve the exit reminder mechanism of ADAS to make intelligence more humane.
Car gathering summary
Compared with the Han EV tested last time, the zero-run C11 almost won in an all-round way, and the mechanical quality, suspension tuning, and battery life were very strong. And the intelligence is also far beyond Han EV, especially in the lateral identification of obstacles is very sensitive - of course, some overreaction, I hope that the later through the OTA upgrade can have a more mature performance.
The reason is that the hardware architecture and intelligent redundancy of the zero-run C11 are placed here, and there are inherent advantages. In addition, it is an SUV model, which is better in terms of space and vision, while the price is tens of thousands lower. It can be said that in the range of 160,000-200,000, zero-run C11 is a benchmark-level product, and whether it can become a phenomenon-level product depends on market performance.
For zero running, which has only been established for a few years, the product strength has been very close to or even catching up with the first-line traditional car companies.
Readers, what do you think is the level of zero-run C11? Feel free to leave a message in the comment area.
