Born with a golden spoon, Zhiji Automobile, which integrates the resources of SAIC, Alibaba and Zhangjiang Hi-Tech (Shanghai), is about to face the ultimate test of the market.
On March 29, Zhiji Automobile officially announced the price of the zhiji L7 Pro, the first model of mass production, 408,800 yuan. At the same time, Zhiji Automobile also opened the lock list for angel wheel users and A round users, and announced the full version of "A round user exclusive rights" and "angel wheel user special rights". The delivery of Zhiji car is imminent.
As the first model of the Zhiji brand, zhiji L7 aims to integrate intelligent electric vehicles with driving experience and intelligent electric vehicles to enter the intelligent electric vehicle market.
With a length of 5098mm, a width of 1960mm, a height of 1485mm and a wheelbase of 3100mm, the body data of the Zhiji L7 has reached the level of medium and large cars. However, taking advantage of the power revolution set off by electrification, the first model of the Zhiji L7 Pro is equipped with a front and rear dual permanent magnet synchronous motor that can release 425kW/725Nm of power, reaching 2 times the level of the same level of luxury fuel vehicles, and accelerating 3.87s at zero hundred. The industry's hot motor oil cooling technology can ensure that the Zhiji L7 achieves more than 10 consecutive accelerations.
The four-wheel steering all-wheel drive system provides a total of 12° rear wheel steering angle in both directions, enabling the Zhiji L7 to have the ability to deflect the front and rear wheels at high speeds, improve the stability of the corner, and the reverse deflection ability of the front and rear wheels at low speeds, and has a 10.8-meter turning diameter comparable to that of the hatchback A-class cars such as the Golf.
Brembo one-piece four-piston optional exclusive color calipers, combined with a fully decoupled wire-controlled dynamic system, can achieve a braking distance of 32.69 m for 100 km/ h. The Pirelli P Zero custom performance tires are also designed with the same front 245mm/rear 275mm tire width concept as F1 racing cars. The two-wheeled real car tuning of the Zhiji L7 was completed by the Williams forward-looking engineering team at the Millbrook Proving Ground in the United Kingdom, and the driving limit was close to the maximum lateral acceleration of 1G steady state.
Zhiji L7 comes standard with a 93kWh battery, using NCM523 ternary lithium battery cell, and the battery pack energy density is 195Wh/kg. At the same time, the rear axle motor of Zhiji L7 adopts 8-layer Hair-pin flat wire winding technology and the industry's first mass-produced magnesium alloy shell, which increases the full rate of the motor slot by 20%, improves the efficiency of the motor, and thus increases the endurance performance. On March 29, the comprehensive cruising range of the CLATC version of the Zhiji L7 Pro version reached 615km. In addition, the Zhiji L7 can also be equipped with 11kW of vehicle wireless charging.
In terms of intelligence, zhiji L7 is equipped with 12 ultrasonic radars, 11 high-definition perception cameras, 5 millimeter wave radars and 2 high-precision positioning units in the early stage, and applies the intelligent driver assistance supercomputing hub (IPD) based on NVIDIA chips. In the future, long-distance high-precision lidar and intelligent driving domain controller high-power Orin chip can be upgraded through the user data benefit plan.
As for user benefits, Series A users can upgrade the Nappa seat, Brembo one-piece four-piston exclusive color calipers, main passenger seat massage and other configurations for free, as well as the optional price of 6,800 yuan for bavarian semi-aniline leather seats.
In terms of electric intelligent hardware, A-round users can have the right to use the IM AD intelligent driver assistance system for 3 years, and enjoy a buyout price of 8,800 yuan, or exchange it for the corresponding value of the data rights "rough". In addition, lidar and high-end energy batteries can be upgraded in the "data equity rough + cash" method.
Angel Wheel users can additionally choose from the Carlog intelligent car camera system, or the first year "IM Care one-click high-end service package", as well as a one-time 10,000 crystal gift.
Since January 2021, after holding brand launches in Shanghai, China, CES in Las Vegas, and London, England, Zhiji Auto has pressed the accelerator button.
Only half a year after the brand's release, the zhiji L7 engineering vehicle in Downtown Shanghai and the elevated highway for 40 consecutive minutes to take over the automatic driving road test video broke out, so that the public recognized the intelligent driving ability of this "new force". At the end of 2021, the first batch of 200 Zhiji L7 Beta Experience Editions were delivered offline, opening the real-world scenario data verification stage of intelligent driving of Zhiji cars. A year later, the announcement of the price of the first model Zhiji L7 Pro and the lock order of angel wheel users and A-round users announced that Zhiji car delivery was imminent, ready to meet the direct judgment of users.
