If you want to vote for a configuration that can reflect the luxury and high-end sense of the vehicle, presumably the air suspension is on the list. Indeed, air suspension has always been a relatively high-end configuration, in the past, less than 500,000 models will basically not be equipped with air suspension, but also in the million-level high-end luxury car, air suspension may be standard. However, after the advent of blueprint FREE, this situation was broken, and the car became the only model in the current 300,000 class equipped with air suspension.
However, for the air suspension of Lantu FREE, many consumers still have doubts. For example, Lantu FREE is not highly priced, why would it provide air suspension? How does the air suspension of Lantu FREE perform, and what is the gap between the air suspension of BBA? In the face of everyone's doubts, today I will take you to peel back the cocoon and see what characteristics of its empty suspension are.
For blueprint FREE's air suspension system, we mainly look at what functions it can achieve, what configuration it has, and see what kind of use scenarios it can meet.
The air suspension of the Landou FREE can be adjusted up and down by 100mm, the chassis height can be switched from 113mm to 213mm, and there are currently 5 height options. At the lowest chassis, it is more convenient for the elderly and children to get on and off the car. When the speed reaches more than 5km/h, the chassis will rise to 163mm, the height is relatively centered, the suspension shock absorber up and down the stroke is also centered, the margin is relatively large, and there is better comfort in the face of potholes. When the chassis height is 133mm, the body center of gravity is lower, the driving is smoother, and the roll of the high-speed cornering body will be reduced, and it can reduce wind resistance and save energy. When the height of the chassis is 213mm, the passing performance of The Landu FREE is stronger, and the common road teeth in the city and the potholes in the mountains will not bump the chassis.
Purely from the perspective of the adjustable range of the suspension, the performance of the Landu FREE has reached the mainstream or even slightly higher level in the industry, the air suspension adjustable range of the Audi e-tron is 76mm, and the air suspension adjustable range of the NIO ES6 is 90mm. In the air suspension test activities held by Landu Automobile, the overall performance of Landu FREE is also relatively good, and in the same stage duel with Volvo XC60 and Mercedes-Benz GLC, land map FREE's passability, handling and comfort have performed remarkablely, and even have slight advantages.
It is worth mentioning that Landu Automobile also integrates intelligent technology into the air suspension, which can be found in the welcome mode of Landu FREE. When the function is enabled, as long as the owner walks into the Landu FREE, the chassis of the vehicle will automatically be reduced to 113mm, and the light group is lit and the door handle pops out, which makes the car more ceremonial.
So, why is land-to-free free not priced and equipped with air suspension? We have to know that the air suspension carried by the vast majority of models at present is provided by overseas brands, whether it is the cost of the air suspension itself, or the follow-up maintenance and repair, the cost is relatively high. However, the air suspension of Lantu FREE is not the same, its air suspension is independently developed, jointly developed by Lantu Automobile and academician enterprise Kong Hui Technology, mastering all independent property rights, Lantu Automobile has thus become the first car company in China to break the monopoly technology of empty suspension.
The benefits of localization are not only the reduction of production costs, but also the subsequent maintenance, replacement of spare parts when the cost will be lower, after encountering technical problems, experts can solve and feedback at the first time. It is understood that the set of air suspension selected by Lantu FREE, in addition to rubber, the rest like air spring packaging, oil pump, control valve, electronic control system, etc., are all produced by Chinese enterprises.
The development process of this air suspension of Lantu Automobile lasted 9 months, after 100 times of solutions and 70 rounds of testing, and finally developed. In addition to the excellent adjustable suspension height in this suspension, its service life is 1.5 times that of the industry air suspension.
Of course, the air suspension of Lantu FREE needs to be optional, in addition to the pure electric city version, Lantu FREE conventional pure electric version, extended range version, need to be additionally selected corresponding to the exclusive luxury set, in order to obtain the air suspension this configuration. Among them, the optional price of the exclusive luxury suit of Zengcheng is 20,000, the optional price of the exclusive luxury set of pure electricity is 30,000, and in addition to the air suspension, it also provides a number of configurations including intelligent air management system and headlight height adaptive adjustment, and the actual value is higher than the package price. You know, the BMW 7 Series alone needs 29,000 for the optional air suspension.
Written in the end: Air suspension has always been one of the proofs of whether a model is high-end, and the reason is that in addition to the air suspension itself can bring a better riding and handling experience, the high price of air suspension is also an important factor. The birth of the autonomous air suspension may further lower the loading threshold of the empty suspension and tear apart the empty suspension "million-level body value". And we also believe that now that Lantu FREE has verified its air suspension strength, there will be more and more independent brands willing to choose domestic air suspension.
