"Chasing the wind and chasing the moon mo stop, the end of Pingwu is the Spring Mountain." Under the premise of a year-on-year increase of 121% in sales in 2021, the Xingtu brand hit the iron while it was hot and continued to rise, opening the first year of brand hybridization in 2022. A new model equipped with a plug-in hybrid system is spent chasing the wind.
This new car, called the Wind Chaser ET-i, is another sales force after the fuel version of the Wind Chase. The whole series is equipped with a pure electric cruising range of 105km as standard, with zero hundred acceleration of only 6.8 seconds, and the comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is as low as 1 liter. Just looking at this data is enough to make people eager to try.
The average fuel consumption is 2.8L/100km
At 24:00 on March 31, a new round of price adjustment window for domestic refined oil products opened. Institutions generally predict that the price of refined oil products is facing "seven consecutive increases".
Netizens commented that oil prices have risen for seven consecutive years since December 31, 2021
On the one hand, oil prices remain high, and on the other hand, there is a rigid demand for commuting. Especially with the long-term epidemic, economical and practical private cars are safer. Hybrid cars are obviously really fragrant at this time. The fuel consumption of Chinese brand SUVs per 100 kilometers is mostly 7-9 oil, and the average is about 8 liters. Driving this wind chasing ET-i, that kind of feeling is different. At first, because it is fully charged, it uses EV pure electric mode; press the physical button "HEV" below the central control to switch to hybrid mode. From Chengdu to Dujiangyan, the city congestion road conditions + highway + national highway, a total of 86 kilometers, the average fuel consumption of 2.8L, the average power consumption of 9 degrees. If it is replaced by a fuel vehicle, the average fuel consumption will be seven or eight liters.
After the test drive throughout the day, the mileage exceeded 200 kilometers, and in the later period, because there was no electricity and all the fuel was used, the fuel gauge was again displayed as 5.0 liters. This is very close to the official claim of 4.8 liters of fuel consumption. Under the epidemic, I believe that everyone knows how to open source and reduce expenditure; and a car can save money for users, which is indirectly "making money" for users.
It is worth mentioning that this car has a total of two configurations, pure electric mileage of 105 kilometers as standard, and the city commuting is enough to use only electricity every day. When you go home from work to make an appointment, you can use the trough electricity price in the middle of the night and the staggered peak charging, which is more cost-effective. Electricity on weekdays, occasional hiking with oil on weekends, the essence of hybrid models, this gets you.
For residents of cities with limited licenses and restricted traffic, they can be green and unlimited, which is also a major advantage of plug-in hybrid vehicles. Perhaps this is also the reason why major brands have launched PHEV in 2022.
"Upside down" with a selling price of 15W and a cost of 30W
Almost overnight, major Chinese brands are laying out hybrid car products. Just like the honey snow ice city full of streets, whether it is a first- or second-tier city, or a fourth- or fifth-tier small city, it is all full of magical colors: you i I, I i you, oil and electricity hybrid sweet honey!
All the drinks in Michelle Ice City are below 10 yuan, freshly ground coffee is only 5 yuan, not to mention the small town youth, even if it is a Thames town youth, it can not be indifferent - the price of an ice cream, the enjoyment of petty bourgeois life. Nai Xue's tea has been unable to withstand loneliness, crazy price reduction, perhaps Ruixing is also difficult to "survive".
Back to the topic of hybrid cars, what is the difference between the Wind Chaser ET-i, as the first hybrid product of the Xingtu brand? At the analysis meeting before the test drive, Zhao Xichang, director of exeED Xingtu Wind Chasing Project, revealed that ET-i did a full test verification before listing, and more than 100 mass production vehicles were put into mass production in the early road test, and the cost of each vehicle was more than 300,000 yuan, which was equivalent to 40 million yuan invested in test vehicles alone, which did not include other aspects of research and development costs.
The cost is 300,000 yuan, and the price of the wind chasing ET-i is only 150,000 or 160,000 yuan. Such an obvious upside down, as a consumer, I want to like! For nothing else, for the brand's responsible attitude to consumers and craftsmanship.
As we all know, Chery is an enterprise with a strong engineer culture, and it is also the first Chinese automobile brand to explore the road of high-end brands. After several ups and downs and many attempts, Chery's original intention of deeply cultivating technology and technology has not changed, especially in the field of engines and other fields, which is ahead of many Chinese brands. And this time, Xingtu stands at a historical high in sales in 2021, and if you want to hit the iron while it is hot, you must be more sincere in the layout of new products. The Wind Chasing Fuel Edition is the highest-selling model of the Xingtu brand, and its intention to take the hybrid technology on the wind chaser is self-evident.
As a compact SUV, the Starway Wind Chaser ET-i is equipped with 1.5TCI four-cylinder turbocharged power, zero hundred acceleration in only 6.8 seconds, and a maximum torque of 510 Nm - which is also the highest torque level of the world's hybrid vehicles, equivalent to the level of a 3.0L V6 engine. At the same time, it is matched by a special transmission for DHT hybrids and a dual motor. It is worth mentioning that the dual motors of the Xingtu Wind Chasing ET-i can be directly involved in the drive, which is one of the few models in the current Chinese automotive market equipped with three intelligent combinations of power sources. In other words, if any 1.5T player wants to follow the wind-chasing ET-i car, I am afraid that only by switching to a pure electric model or a sports car with more than one million will he have a chance to win.
In short, the wind chasing ET-i has more power, lower fuel consumption, can be green card, the price is 150,000-160,000 yuan, at least in the same class of models it is difficult to find a second car. According to reports, ET-i stands for Exeed elctric Technology intelligent, which is true. The later remodeled models are more perfect with the wireless charging of mobile phones and seat ventilation and heating that young people like.
