Because of work, the friends I make are usually all over the world, so I am often asked the question: "How cold is the winter in the northeast?" Is there really more than thirty degrees below zero? As early as ten years ago, when living in Shanghai, a neighbor in Yunnan once asked, "Have you ever seen a tiger on the mountain?" ”
In fact, I would like to say that because of geographical differences, many people's cognition of the northeast only stays at the level of GDP ranking and old iron 666, and even many people who are accustomed to 2D maps are not very clear about the northward depth of the three eastern provinces, nor do they know that most of the northeast old iron has not seen tigers, and can only go to the zoo if they want to see it.
For example, on January 25, when this passage was typed, the minimum temperature in Shenyang, where the author lived, was -15 °C and the maximum temperature was -3 °C, while the Mohe River in Heilongjiang, which is more than 1700 km north-northeast of Shenyang, was -30 °C at this time, but that 1700 km was almost equal to the distance from Shenyang to Shanghai.
Talk so much, because a while ago I saw a lot of big questions about the winter test of the tram, dozens of trams gathered in the extremely cold zone to test, no matter what positioning, according to the unified standard of the station platoon training, and even in the magnificent and heroic side of the snow scene, you can also find the same dumb players as the Wuling MINI EV.
To tell the truth, the winter test of the major platforms is very rational, and the performance "floor" of each brand of tram is measured for consumers in the most rigorous and responsible way, and it also completely refreshes the market's awareness of the battery life of the tram in an extremely cold environment.
However, rationality is rational, when I see that the winter low-temperature endurance of the ID.3 is only 38%, I can't help but be amazed, to know that after the test drive of the ID.4 in May last year, my impression of the endurance of the MEB platform product is very good, even better than the 95% of the models on the market. With a questioning and "sorry I didn't test drive the ID series in winter", I borrowed an ID.3. Of course, there is only one purpose, is its endurance achievement rate really low?
Three words: real endurance written on the face
I borrowed this car for 17.3888 million PRO Jizhi version, has been equipped with AR enhanced real-life navigation, but did not install carbon dioxide heat pump air conditioning, in this case, I opened 2km after only to find that the 99% of the electricity meter display endurance is only 141km, the endurance rate at this time is only 33%, [can be double temperature zone air conditioning are opened to HI], that is can not be higher temperature.
There are two reasons for the low endurance of the table display, one is that the energy consumption of hi-file air conditioning is too large, and the heating effect is no different from more than 20 degrees in the winter low temperature; the second is that the vehicle has been standing in a cold state for a long time, and the driving computer judges the vehicle endurance as no different from the extremely cold zone.
I then set the air conditioner to 22 ° C, which is the temperature of the old iron I can take off the down jacket without heat, and the meter shows that the cruising range returned to 219km (221km full power), and the endurance at this time was 51.3%.
To be honest, I was a little frightened, after all, since last year, I have test-driven a lot of trams in Shenyang, including the first batch of Xiaopeng P5, but no one has ever given me a full sense of oppression through the mileage at the first time on the bus.
So the question is, is the endurance of the table in front of you real? Will there be a few more folds of imaginary space? With more questions, I casually cleared the small mileage and conducted uninterrupted test drives in congested urban areas and loops in 22 °C and B mode (kinetic energy recovery mode), with the intention of calculating the authenticity of the meter mileage by showing the 219km standard.
When traveling to 21.7km, the meter shows battery life
Meter endurance when traveling to 37.4 km (air conditioning 22°C)
Metered battery life when traveling to 37.4 km (air conditioning turned off)
After taking the last two pictures, I returned from the test drive to the parking lot downstairs of the unit, the whole journey was about 17km.
Finally stopped under the unit building, the meter mileage is 185km (turn off the air conditioning)
Preheat the air conditioner before leaving the unit, set 22 ° C, and consume several kilometers of endurance.
Get on the bus from the unit, the meter shows a cruising range of 173km (turn on the air conditioner 22 ° C)
Backstairs, a total of 62.6km was driven that day, and the remaining cruising range was 167km (22°C for air conditioning)
At 11:35 the next day, the vehicle had been standing for 16 hours in the cold winter of -14 °C, and the natural power loss was about 2km.
The data proves that the meter mileage of the ID series is not only real, but also the mileage will be opened more and more due to the transient calculation of the driving computer and the warmer and warmer conditions of the car. In my personal understanding during the test drive, the more part is equal to the gain brought by the kinetic energy recovery of the B gear.
With a few days of test drive, standing overnight and the air conditioner adjusted to the HI gear, the endurance of the table has reached 170Km, and it can reach 260km at 22 ° C, which shows that the driving computer has been predicting the minimum driving mileage based on multi-dimensional factors such as past driving data and working conditions, and finally po the data that "it" believes to be the most reliable.
This means that the endurance rate of ID.3 in different regions, different ambient temperatures, and different previous day use conditions is completely different, but in short, the driving computer will directly tell you the endurance that "it" thinks is the most real, at least in the few days of Shenyang test drive, the achievement rate fluctuates between 52% and 60%.
Speaking of which, some envy the southern partners, MEB's products in the right temperature at the endurance performance will always be reassuring.
What is the point of this endurance?
The id.3 car sold to the top in Europe can also show that it can overcome the corresponding climatic environment. The latitude of Europe is between 71° north latitude and 36° north latitude, while the latitude of the northeast region is between 55° north latitude and 38° north latitude, and there are many latitudes between each other.
It's just that I don't think an urban scooter should be in the extremely cold weather that is rarely visited. On the contrary, due to its electric attributes, most consumers are only used as urban transportation after purchase, and according to the promotion intensity and depth of new energy vehicles in the three eastern provinces, they can only cover the three cities of Changchun, Shenyang and Dalian, and it is more difficult to continue to explore secondary cities or further north. Then it is obviously of practical significance to spy the real endurance in the big cities of the northeast.
Taking Shenyang as an example, due to the greenhouse effect, the urban temperature is often several degrees higher than the suburbs, which is warmer, so the ID.3 in the city is what he should look like. It's like a Wuling MINI EV running in a minus 30° no man's land. Can it go or will someone drive him?
As for why not test high-speed, I think at this stage of electric vehicles can do a good job in urban transportation work is enough, infrastructure, energy supplementation methods need to be further built, I believe that even in the south, electric vehicles are not the primary target of long-distance travel, especially some low-end electric vehicles, there is no brand fast charging support under the low threshold of new energy vehicles, and in the north, not to mention, the urban popularization of electric is difficult.
Just like a picture that was very popular on the Internet a while ago, it is really killing people without nodding their heads...
What kind of car is the ID.3?
The ID.3 is really easy to drive, with a length of less than 4.3 meters with a wheelbase of 2.76 meters, and the rear-drive attribute makes its turning radius comparable to smart, and it is also extremely agile when overtaking and merging in daily days. But I don't agree with some of my friends' analogy of electric "golf."
According to the actual driving situation, the SITTING posture of ID.3 is significantly higher than that of the Golf, if you pursue a better view, after getting on the car, it will raise the seat again, at this time its sitting posture is higher than that of ordinary cars and lower than normal SUVs, the image point description is basically no different from Sharon, Tianyu SX4, B200, I think this is due to the 20-inch wheel support.
All MEB models are front disc rear drum brakes, the reason why the wide rear tire design is not used like the ID.4, because the battery module does not pave the entire battery frame, the center of gravity is slightly forward, and the rear axle motor forms a balanced axial load.
Speaking of which, id.3's large noodle tire is also a problem. The 20-inch wheel hub is equipped with the original 215mm wide tire, which is characterized by the built-in automatic tire repair fluid in the inner wall of the tire, so how difficult is it to find a snow tire of the same size in the northeast? Even four-season tires can only be found in michelin or Bridgestone's high-end series, at least 1500 pieces.
As for friends who ask ID.3 to work, they are exempt from opening their mouths. Where the tape was previously attached to the Yaston test drive ID.4, it had to be pasted again on the ID.3. But the workmanship belongs to the workmanship, the material is returned to the material, in the core configuration ID.3 has not yet appeared crotch pulling phenomenon, at least not like the WMAR W6 test drive 2 months ago, -10 ° stand overnight after the black screen of the car machine can not be opened, but the car can still run normally...
If there is anything constructive to say, believe me, buy white, pay for white interiors...
Asteron summary
For the gourmets who have tasted all the electric vehicles, the endurance of the ID.3 is not outstanding, and it can only be regarded as qualified. But for the vast majority of consumers in the enlightenment stage of electric vehicles (especially northern consumers), the real endurance directLY PO to you, this kind of straightforward and without any rhetoric will indeed win the favor of a few people - at least will not let you fall into the uncertainty of running 1km and dropping 5km.
Eventually I fell into a philosophical musing, which is more acceptable to the people between sleekness and integrity? Just like between a straight man and a scumbag, which is easier for the little sister to accept? So when the turbidity of the industry becomes the norm, is innocence a sin?
