On February 25th, Ziyoujia Automobile held its first model of self-Touring Home NV new car tasting meeting in Beijing, And Self-Tour Home NV also made its official debut in front of the media for the first time, although the exhibition car at this event is still an engineering verification car, there is still a big difference between internal and external details and functionality and the real mass production version in the future, and it is not yet possible to feel the experience on the car, but the Self-Tour Home NV also showed the understanding and interpretation of its own car-making style through this appearance.
Perhaps many friends do not know much about the new car brand of Ziyoujia, so here we need to introduce it, the main body of the Niutron brand is "Jiangsu Niu Innovative Energy Technology Co., Ltd.", and the car manufacturing plan was established in November 2018, and the company was officially registered in 2020. It will focus on the field of intelligent high-end new energy vehicles, the brand headquarters is located in Beijing, Shanghai has set up a research and development center, and the R&D and intelligent manufacturing base is located in Changzhou. At present, Youjia Automobile has a core R & D team of more than 1,000 people, all from mainstream first-line automobile companies at home and abroad, with an average working experience of more than 10 years. Its company's mission is to "let more people enjoy the beauty of smart travel".
Self-touring NV is positioned as a medium and large electric SUV, based on the "Urban Exploring" design concept, to create an electric SUV that can meet daily commuting and outdoor exploration temperament, and will provide two power options in the future: range extender hybrid and pure electric power.
In terms of shape design, the Self-Touring NV is obviously a model with a distinct personality and even unforgettable, and the two main bodies of the city and exploration have a very good embodiment of it, and the recognition is also very strong, which is still very important for a new brand.
Of course, the headlights still use a full LED light source, but its design has a strong retro sense in addition to personality, and it also runs through the entire front face through the pulse-style shape, which is officially called a double-track ring headlight. According to reports, after mass production, the self-touring NV will also provide an active grille, and this time the engineering verification car has not yet been equipped.
The lines on the side of the body are still very simple, and the suspended roof created by the two-color body is also a popular design style, and the C-pillar adopts a metallic cover design, and embeds a digital dynamic charging indicator to display the power status, which is very intuitive. In terms of body size, its length, width and height three-dimensional parameters are 4915/1950/1750mm, the wheelbase reaches 2900mm, and the steel and aluminum hybrid material body is adopted.
The design of the rear part of the car is simple and does not lose its personality, the tail wing shape integrates the roof spoiler and the side wind wing, which is officially called the integrated crater design, and the rear wiper is embedded inside the roof spoiler to achieve a more simple tail shape. The through-type tail light group adopts a pulse matrix design, which also has a good echo with the headlights.
According to reports, the interior of the self-touring NV uses DigiLux "digital luxury" style to create, although simple, but through the immersive experience for the user to bring a different feeling, this time because we can not for the self-touring NV project verification car interior for a more in-depth experience, the interior of the pictures used some from the manufacturer, more or from the design of the description.
The overall design of the interior follows the design principle of simplifying complexity, minimizing the stitching process and stitching, such as the car dashboard frame with a rounded rectangular design theme, and the upper dashboard is covered with a whole IMG mother leather, without any stitching, bringing a continuous, tension visual effect.
The steering wheel adopts a double-colored leather wrapped cut design, through two metallic chrome-plated five-way adjustment wheels to achieve ADAS, voice assistant, music, call and other functions, using this kind of rolling, dialing interaction with a sense of positioning, it is easier to intuitively operate than multi-button disc control, simplifying the complexity of disk control interaction.
The seat is covered in Nappa leather, retaining its natural texture with a plant-based tanning process, while using the industry's first embroidered lifting technology (pulling a part of leather into the seat to form a lifting structure), reducing seat cutting, improving fit, and organically combining function and design.
The co-pilot seat has a wider headrest and seat cushion, the backrest can be reclined to 130 degrees, the front part with the removable glove box can make the leg rest can be adjusted to fully flat, and the seat massage and ventilation heating function are also set up in the function, which can greatly alleviate the fatigue of the journey.
Two MiniLCD screens are designed for the air conditioner air outlets at both ends of the instrument panel, making it easy for users to read relevant information such as temperature/air volume/PM2.5. According to reports, the whole vehicle adopts higher standards of environmental protection materials, such as LASD water-based damping materials, the vehicle VOC volatilization is only 1/10 of the national standard, and the air quality in the car reaches C-ECAP platinum quality.
Since the Youjia NV is equipped with a 15.6-inch central suspension screen, compared with the current mainstream size in terms of size, it has no small advantage, and the specific car system and operation cannot be experienced at present, and we will continue to pay attention to it in the follow-up.
In terms of convenience and storage space, the self-touring NV will provide more than 20 storage spaces, the central armrest box can be opened left and right, the co-driver glove box can be detached, there is a tote bag storage space below, the luggage compartment will provide 788L space in the standard state, and the space will be expanded to 1730L when the rear seat is reclined.
In today's new car-making forces emerge in an endless stream, but the real personalized products are rare, the self-touring NV does bring people a refreshing feeling, it can be seen that the internal and external design is indeed a heart, of course, in the random flowers and increasingly charming market, enhance brand influence, get more attention, but also the future of the self-tourer need to face the problem. It is reported that the Self-Touring NV is expected to be produced in small batches in March 2022 and will be delivered to the first users at the end of September.
