How many new power brands are there in China? This question is probably not answered even for people in the industry, because there are so many. Nowadays, the new power brands have also been rolled into the crazy comparison with other new power brands to endurance and screen size, but now the lack of chips and battery price increases in the background, still blindly competing for endurance and intelligence, it seems to become very unrealistic.
So now there is no prospect for the new power brands entering the market? No, since you can't fight head-on, then do differentiated positioning, such as self-travel NV that takes outdoor camping and self-driving tour positioning.
Uniquely wild
Nowadays, more and more scientific and technological elements have been added to the design of new energy vehicles, in order to open up the gap with fuel vehicles as much as possible, and they are eager to engrave the three words of new energy on the brain door. Although the self-touring NV also has popular elements such as hidden door handles and through-type front and rear light strips, it does not have too much sense of technology to look at, but has some primitive wildness.
According to the official, the design of the Self-Touring NV combines two different styles of urbanism and exploration. The silhouette of the whole car is more square at first glance, and the black plastic wheel arch and lower skirt convey an attitude of drawing a clear line with the city. The double-track ring LED strip inside the headlight group is quite retro style, and the round headlights can not only sell cute, but also play hard.
Another reason for the wild appearance of the Self-Touring NV comes from its body shape, its length, width and height are 4915, 1950, 1750mm, the wheelbase is 2900mm, positioning medium and large SUVs.
Why is it only five?
For an SUV with a length of more than 4.9 meters, it is not difficult to make a seven-seater from the size of the Tourer NV. But the reality is that it is one thing to be able to sit down with 7 adults, and it is another thing to be uncomfortable. Imagine maintaining the same position in the third row for hours in a row, which obviously ruins the good mood of the trip.
For long journeys, is the most important thing practical? No, it's actually comfort. Therefore, the self-touring NV chose to sacrifice the third row of seats, so that the first and second rows can enjoy the luxurious 2.9-meter wheelbase. In addition to the large space, the self-touring NV has also optimized the riding comfort, such as the length of the second row of seat cushions reaching 520mm, which can effectively ensure a leg support space.
But the real selling point of the self-touring NV is not in the second row, but the co-driver. The Co-Pilot's Air Lounge Immersive Seat features wider headrests and cushions, a backrest that can be reclined to 130 degrees, and a freely removable glove box that adjusts the leg rest to fully flat.
Another reason why the NV has made five seats is that it has more space for the trunk, which has a trunk volume of 788L in standard conditions, and can reach 1730L after the second row of seats is reclined, and the oversized trunk can bring more luggage and camping equipment when traveling, such as its official map gives the answer.
If the trunk volume is not enough, the official map also gives another answer: the roof trunk. Probably because the appearance of the self-touring NV itself has off-road attributes, it looks particularly harmonious after hanging up the roof suitcase. I think self-travelers could even consider launching a rear-mount spare tire kit, even in the form of an option.
All the details are taken into account for the trip
If it is only the layout of the shape and the large five seats, it seems a bit far-fetched to say that it is self-contained. The scene-based positioning of the self-touring NV lies more in the details of the car. For example, its interior vertical 15.6-inch central control screen is more suitable for navigation, and this central control screen also has 6 built-in linear micro-motor, which can bring better haptic feedback when touching operation, and is more suitable for blind operation in driving. For example, the large mobile phone wireless charging board under the central control screen can easily accommodate two mobile phones to charge at the same time, with two Type-C interfaces in the front and rear rows, which can charge 6 mobile phones at the same time.
The self-touring NV also comes standard with ACC adaptive cruise, LKA lane keeping, fully automatic parking and other driver assistance functions, while the car is also equipped with fresh air system, double laminated glass, seat massage and ventilation and heating functions, all just to make the journey more relaxing. In addition, it is equipped with a 220V external discharge function, which can power various appliances while camping.
No endurance anxiety can go further
Long-distance self-driving for the current pure electric vehicle is still a headache problem, since the tour home NV provides pure electric and range extender two power systems, the extended range version will be equipped with a 1.5T four-cylinder engine as a range extender, the highest thermal efficiency reached 41%, WLTC comprehensive endurance up to 939km, this endurance makes long-distance self-driving possible. The standard intelligent electric four-wheel drive also has stronger passability when dealing with unpaved paved roads.
Write at the end
Since Youjia NV originally planned to hold a listing conference on March 31, it was forced to postpone due to the epidemic in many parts of the country. The national epidemic has affected not only the listing launch, but also the work, life and vacation of many people. I hope that the epidemic will end as soon as possible, because only by going out and measuring the national territory with a self-driving car can we understand the true meaning of travel.
