In the market, when consumers want to buy a medium-sized pure electric SUV, there is still a lot of choice. The first place may be Tesla's Model Y (parameter 丨 picture), in addition to BMW's iX3, Mercedes-Benz's EQC and products such as BYD Tang and Polar Fox Alpha T from independent brands.
Counting these products, if you want to buy a decent configuration and good power, then the price is basically more than 300,000 yuan. But what if you only have a budget of 200,000 and you want value, technology and performance? The zero-run C11 performance edition we experience today seems to be the answer to consumers with limited budgets and higher requirements.
Dynamic performance - dual motor 4WD confidence
Before the dynamic feeling, let's first introduce the power and endurance of the zero-run C11 series. In fact, if you carefully study the configuration of the zero-run C11 model, you can find that the other configurations of the three models in the whole series are exactly the same in addition to the different power and endurance. In terms of power, it is divided into two power versions: single motor rear and front and rear dual motors. The single-motor model has a maximum power of 200 kW, a maximum torque of 360 Nm, and an official acceleration time of 7.9 seconds per 100 km/h.
The zero-run C11 performance version we tested today is equipped with dual motors, and the dual-motor version has a maximum power of 400kW, a maximum torque of 720Nm, and an acceleration time of only 4.5 seconds per 100 kilometers.
In terms of battery life, the entry-level model is equipped with a 76.6kWh battery pack with a comprehensive endurance of 510km. The medium model is equipped with a 90kWh battery pack with a range of 610km, and the performance version we tested today is also equipped with a 90kWh power battery, but because it is equipped with dual motors, its endurance is slightly shorter than that of the middle one, which is 550km.
Now that we've seen the Zero-Run C11, let's talk about how this model performs in terms of dynamics. Because the test drive today includes S-bend and straight-line acceleration, the following is from these two aspects to understand the zero-run C11 performance version.
First of all, the zero-run C11 series of models have adopted a front double wisharm + rear five-link four-wheel independent suspension, which will greatly help to improve the vehicle control, in the link of linear acceleration, we can feel the strong push back feeling brought by the vehicle instantaneously, and finally achieved an acceleration of 4.7 seconds in the case of riding two people (weighing about 200kg).
Since only one car in the venue is frequently accelerating and braking, its acceleration performance is about 4.6 seconds, and it can also be seen from this aspect that the overall electronic control efficiency and stability of the zero-run C11 performance version model are very good.
In terms of braking, due to frequent braking, the models in the venue have overheated, so the actual braking performance is not highly referenced. In terms of brake foot feeling, the zero-run C11 performance version is still relatively good, and the feedback force of stepping down is also very uniform, the depth is controllable, and there can be good confidence from the foot feeling. The braking force release is also very uniform, you can accurately control the braking force with the depth of the step, and the entire braking force is also very controllable when the vehicle is about to brake, and there will not be many nods that are not well tuned models, and this tuning also improves the comfort of the whole vehicle.
In the S-bend experience session, it is a test of the vehicle suspension, acceleration, braking and deceleration instantaneous acceleration. First of all, in terms of suspension, because the hardware conditions itself are very high, the basis of the vehicle in terms of handling is also higher. In the S-bend experience process, it can be found that the zero-run C11 performance version of the suspension tuning is not a model that tends to extreme control, or takes care of the comfort of daily use, so in the process of rapid cornering can still feel the obvious roll, but due to the front double wishbones + rear five-link four-wheel independent suspension, can make the wheels have good circulation and grip in the process of cornering, although the suspension support is not better than pure performance cars, but the limit of the whole vehicle when cornering is still very high, Of course, it is also higher than other SUV models in the same class.
From the directionality of the steering wheel can also be judged that the zero-run C11 performance version is more to take care of daily use, but in terms of steering feel is still relatively good, in the vehicle has the speed of the rapid direction of the process of feedback is also relatively uniform, the return force is moderate, the entire direction is well controlled, and the slightly heavier feedback force also adds some sense of superiority.
In terms of acceleration, the models we are testing to drive today use the sport mode, in the sport mode, the overall performance of the accelerator pedal is too sensitive, and the vehicle will have a relatively fast acceleration with a light touch, which is definitely superior in absolute acceleration ability and rapid acceleration performance.
But if we are in daily use in sports mode we need to control the accelerator pedal very precisely, coupled with strong power, a slightly faster step on the vehicle will have a very obvious reaction, may not be so easy to control when stuck in traffic. Simply put, if you adjust to the exercise mode during daily use, the whole person may be in a tight state. Maybe other driving modes are more suitable for everyday life, but we lose the ability to drop "opponents" in an instant.
In fact, in addition to the power part, the zero-run C11 performance version is almost no different from the single-motor version model in terms of hardware and suspension tuning. The name zero-run C11 performance version is actually the best definition of this car, in fact, the ordinary version of the power in daily life has been completely enough, zero-run C11 performance version more with strong power to make the vehicle have the ability to burst instantaneously, in fact, no one can start every time to a zero hundred 4.5 seconds, more through the strong power, so that the driver has "can not use but can not be without" confidence.
appearance
In terms of appearance, the design of the new car is novel enough to basically continue the design style of the zero-run C-more concept car, mainly based on soft rounded lines. The grille-less design makes its electrification characteristics extremely obvious, and the smooth lines and minimalist decoration of the entire front of the car make it look quite advanced.
The front of the car adopts a grilleless design, a tough line runs through the front of the car, and the two sides of the insurance are also designed with air vents, the combination of these elements makes the entire front face three-dimensional sense is very strong, and the black decorative air vents on both sides also increase the sense of movement of the entire front.
The headlights are designed through, with the two side headlights connected by a strip of light, and the lamp eyebrows extend to the sides of the body, widening the lateral visual effect of the entire front. In terms of light source, the new car uses a full LED light source, and adopts a double-layer matrix arrangement, coupled with a blackened design, so that the entire headlights look very textured.
The side also continues the rounded design style, a smooth waist line runs through the side of the car, making the entire side shape look very full. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the zero-run C11 performance version are consistent with the ordinary version of the model, which is 4750/1905/1675mm, and the wheelbase has reached 2930mm, positioning it as a medium-sized pure electric SUV.
Half of the window line on the body also added a chrome decoration, from the front and rear mirrors all the way to the rear, in addition, through the addition of large glass between the C and D columns, so that the window size appears very large, in addition, this design also makes the surface of the vehicle look more exquisite.
The charging interface of the vehicle is also designed above the rear fenders, and when opened, it can be seen that the fast/slow charging interface is designed together. In terms of charging time, it takes 7.5 hours for slow charging 30%-80%, and fast charging time is less than 45 minutes.
The rear of the car also uses a rounded design style, the tail lights adopt a through-line design, the entire line echoes the headlights, and the front and rear design effects are very uniform.
The tail light adopts a transparent design, the interior uses a red width indicator light strip, even if the headlights are not lit, the whole sense of refinement is also very sufficient, and the details outlined by the red width light are also very distinctive, and the overall fashion and recognition are both stylish and recognizable.
Interior
In the interior part, the new car adopts the traditional T-shaped layout, the center console is equipped with a total of three large screens, two small, and the size of the driving screen, the central control screen and the passenger screen are 10.25, 12.8 and 10.25 inches respectively. The design of the three large screens and the addition of piano paint materials around the screen make the entire interior look both futuristic and refined.
The steering wheel is double-spoke and wrapped in light leather. Functionally, it is also designed with rich buttons above it, the left side controls intelligent driving, and the right side controls the audio entertainment.
The middle large screen adopts the industry's top third-generation Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 processor, which can greatly improve the fluency of user operation and the stability of system operation. With iFLYTEK's latest 3.5-generation intelligent voice interaction system, users can control and manage the hardware of the whole vehicle, such as doors, windows, air conditioners, seats, thermal management, and charging.
The door panels are also designed using a lot of soft materials, and the use of suede and Nappa leather materials, not only looks very advanced to the touch.
In addition, it is worth saying that the new car adopts a borderless door design, and the degree of pulling and temperament of this borderless door after opening the door is incomparable to the border door.
On the door handle we can see that the new car designed a button to open the door, this design is more similar to the Tesla Model 3, the operation is exactly the same, a light press can open the door.
Face recognition is a zero-run traditional signature function configuration, on C11, through the in-depth AI intelligent learning evolution, the system can recognize the face ID in seconds, so as to achieve air conditioning, rearview mirrors, mood lights, music, seats, driving mode and other 15 functions of self-adaptation. All individual functions in the car are automatically adjusted to the best of the driver's preferences.
In terms of riding space, the driver with a height of 186cm and a weight of 110kg sits in the front of the car, and there are three fingers left in the head space.
The rear part thanks to the extra-long wheelbase. The same experiencer sits in the car, the leg space remains one punch and four fingers, the head space remains four fingers, and because it is built from a pure electric platform, the rear floor is completely flat, and the middle seat can also be very comfortable under the feet.
Summary: Compared with the ordinary version of the C11 performance version, the zero-run C11 performance version is only a nuance in terms of appearance details, including chassis tuning, which is almost the same, which can be fully understood as a version with stronger power. In fact, from the perspective of the entire car series, the performance version we experienced today seems to be the most cost-effective choice for the entire car series, it is the model within 5 seconds of 100 kilometers acceleration that can be purchased in the entire new energy market for 230,000, if there is a demand for power, then the zero-run C11 performance version is very worthy of your attention.
