【Pacific Auto Network Review Channel】Under the general trend of the development of domestic new energy vehicle products, many powerful electric vehicle brands have been spawned, and the competition between the new forces of car manufacturing and traditional car companies has also played a role in mutual motivation, so the choice of high-quality domestic electric vehicles is more diverse; Jihu ARCFOX Alpha T is a product with excellent comprehensive ability, and has a good strength in the new energy market of hundreds of schools, and how many points can its performance be scored in the face of strong enemies? So we found a Terrass Model Y and saw which of the two cars was more powerful and more lethal.
Alpha T: The interior grade is the best in the 300,000 class
The two cars in the interior design is a completely different route, into the Alpha T car luxury sense of the face to pounce, 20.3-inch oversized central control LCD screen almost occupies the entire dashboard area, the size of the full LCD screen also reached 12.3 inches, in addition to the lower air conditioning control panel also uses LCD screen design size of 10.1 inches, functions including car entertainment, online applications, voice control, gesture control and more local APP download and use, Among the models with a price of more than 300,000, it has to be admitted that the sense of grade of the Alpha T is the strongest.
Sitting in the Tesla ModelY car again will feel a big psychological gap, the interior is simple enough to make you unable to start, all the functions are integrated in the middle of the 15-inch central control screen. In the UI interface design also uses a directory-style functional partition, poor vision is really difficult to operate, dense and compact functional options are like reading a book, and the large screen that is not rich also has to undertake the work of the dashboard, such an experience is definitely not comfortable.
Space: The back row is the Model Y's pain point
In terms of space, the performance of the two cars is obvious, the Alpha T has a clear advantage in size, and the rear seat space is very generous, but the small rear space of the ModelY is already a recognized problem, which is actually confirmed by our experience as a 1.85-meter-tall passenger. There is also a difference in the performance of luggage space, ModelY uses a slipback design with a larger opening, the threshold is lower, and it will be easier to store items; Alpha T as an SUV considering higher passability, the luggage threshold is higher, but after equipped with the luggage induction opening, the loading and unloading items can also save some effort.
Driving: The power is high and the judgment is high, but the performance has its own strengths
Daily driving these two cars can do both power and comfort, the power response is positive and will not make people feel abrupt, but compared to the ModelY, the more powerful Alpha T needs to spend more effort to take care of the power output more smoothly to meet the higher daily comfort needs, not only that, in the context of the traditional car companies, the driving experience of the Extreme Fox Alpha T and the new forces of car building are also obviously different, its driving experience is very close to the oil car, Especially in the case of vehicle taxiing, there will be no drag feeling in power recovery, and when it is also a single pedal mode, the state of the retracting and discharging door is also as smooth and linear as possible, and the comfort of the ModelY in this regard is not as natural as that of the Alpha T.
For power, Alpha T does have a very obvious advantage in sport mode, the burst of downward torque of each foot electric gate will exceed your expectations, more importantly, in the continuous acceleration process, its power will not have a significant attenuation, and the continuous push back feeling is more intense and durable than modelY, which is still compared to the power version that has not been castrated. Of course, if you don't consider the price of the ModelY's four-wheel drive version (priced at 417,900) is definitely more violent than the Alpha T four-wheel drive high-performance version (priced at 319,900), but the ModelY can't give you this feeling at the same price point.
The Polar Fox Alpha T four-wheel drive high-performance version has an off-road mode and is achieved by the front and rear motors, and the passability of this car is better than the ModelY with higher ground clearance. Of course, what I am talking about is not really off-road, but has a certain non-paved road capacity, especially in rain and snow weather with four-wheel drive Alpha T will greatly improve driving safety, although ModelY also provides snow driving mode, but it is still a two-wheeled rear-drive car, I believe many friends can also understand that the performance of the rear-drive in ice and snow driving is not friendly.
0-100km/h acceleration test
Alpha T four-wheel drive high-performance version and ModelY standard endurance after-drive version of the official 100-kilometer acceleration performance is 4.6 seconds and 5.6 seconds (2022 Model Y6.9 seconds), through the actual measurement we got the results of The AlT four-wheel drive high-performance version is 4.93 seconds, modelY rear-drive version is 5.35 seconds, I have to say that a single motor can run such a performance has been quite outstanding, congratulations in advance to buy the owner of the modelY without castration; but don't look at the difference in performance between 0.5 seconds, the actual difference in body feeling is very obvious, ModelY after the start of the push back feeling is strong but very short The Alpha T will press the driver firmly on the seat during the entire acceleration process, and the push back will last longer and happier.
100km/h-0 brake test
In the test of the 100 km brake, both cars showed good performance and very similar results, the Alpha T 100 km brake had a best time of 37.52 meters and the ModelY had a best score of 37.86 meters. From the curve chart, it can be seen that the braking force of Alpha T is stable in all sections, almost all of which can be maintained between -1 and -1.2G, while the modelY initial braking force is weak, and the latter stage is gradually less linear than the force.
