Some time ago, a car company always said this, "Why are there still people buying fuel trucks?" Such remarks have caused a lot of controversy on the Internet.
Indeed, sales of new energy vehicles have been rising in recent years. On the one hand, the current new energy vehicles have certain policy support, and car buyers can enjoy certain preferential treatment; on the other hand, after a long period of development of new energy, the most headache-inducing endurance problem is gradually alleviated, so that the practicality of new energy vehicles has been greatly improved.
If you are in the car selection stage, the budget on hand is about 400,000-500,000 yuan, and the target model is a new energy medium-sizeD SUV, the two models to talk about today are very suitable for you.
Model: BMW iX3
Price: 399,900-439,900 yuan
BMW should be one of the many brands on sale in China, and it has an advantage in terms of controllability. The main reason for this performance is that BMW's chassis tuning has its own unique understanding, so that each of its cars has a good driving pleasure.
Even the BMW iX3, a pure electric model, is no exception. This car is driving up, and there are many differences with many new energy vehicles now. The solid chassis is something that many new energy vehicles can do, but it is not only solid, but also has a certain flexibility in the tail, and there is better performance in the corners.
The power is also the level that pure electric models should have, and the acceleration time of 100 kilometers to the end of the throttle is 6.8s, and the acceleration performance is comparable to that of a small steel cannon. At the same time, the whole series has only one powertrain, a single motor in the rear, a maximum power of 210kW, and a peak torque of 400N·m. Matching the 80kWh battery pack, the cruising range is about 500km, and the short intercity commute is completely fine.
The appearance and interior of bmw iX3 is very similar to bmw X3, but if you look carefully, you can find that its grille is not the fully enclosed design used by pure electric models, but a semi-open design, at the same time, the interior also adds an active closing mechanism, which can ensure that the vehicle's excellent wind resistance coefficient can also ensure that the motor cabin has always been the appropriate working temperature.
The difference from the BMW X3 is even more difficult to see in the car, but the gear bar is still a bit promising. The regular "+"-" gear was changed to B gear, which is a single pedal mode. After selecting this gear, the right foot basically only needs to control the throttle. But this requires drivers to adjust their driving habits, it is recommended that before they are really used to it, do not use this gear to drive on the road.
Model: GAC AION LX
Price: 286,600-459,600 yuan
GAC is one of the more well-known automobile groups in China, and before entering the 21st century, it mainly relied on joint ventures to make The Chinese people familiar. After the birth of the Trumpchi brand, it was also favored by many consumers. AION once belonged to Trumpchi, and then became an independent electric vehicle brand, and in just a few years, it has formed a rich product array.
As the brand's flagship model, the AION LX's overall design continues the family's characteristics. The front face is very aggressive, with a convex closed design on the upper part and a regular grille at the bottom, which looks sporty. The A/B/C columns and roof on the sides are painted in black to create a hidden effect. Combined with the wheel hub designed to reduce wind resistance, the overall feeling is very futuristic.
The car seems to be more conventional, 15.6-inch central control screen, 12.3-inch full LCD instrument. In fact, the car's gear bar not only adopts a knob design, but also adds a lifting mechanism to make the interior more futuristic. It is worth noting that other models, if they have leg rests, are generally in the co-driver, but the AION LX even has a rear seat, which is enough to prove the spaciousness of its rear space.
Power For electric vehicles, the acceleration of 100 kilometers is less than 4s, and it seems that many models have done it. However, the maximum cruising range of the AION LX is 1008km, and it is also the only model on the market with a cruising range of more than 1,000 kilometers, which is why the price of the AION LX is high.
Summary: After a long period of development, the current new energy models are not only fast, but even "silly fast". Instead, in addition to being fast, more consideration is given to the reality of consumers, such as the BMW iX3, which is fast and the handling is also quite excellent; the AION LX is eye-popping in the mileage. So, are you starting to think about new energy vehicles?
