【Introduction: On April 17, Zhiji L7 was officially listed, and the official price was 368,800 yuan to 408,800 yuan. After announcing the Zhiji L7 Pro and the price of 408,800 yuan on March 29, Zhiji Automobile announced the Zhiji L7 Dynamic configuration and price of 368,800 yuan. At the time of breaking into the new world of electric vehicles, Zhiji Automobile chose to refresh the "longest electric drift" world record to prove itself. 】

At the press conference, Zhiji Automobile announced the record of Zhiji L7 continuous drift of 1 hour and 6 minutes, 258 laps, and 43.646 kilometers, and successfully removed the new crown with the longest drift distance. This world record, which considers the overall performance of the car's handling, was previously broken by the Porsche Taycan in August 2020 at the Porsche Experience Centre (PEC) in Hockenheim, Germany.
When it comes to luxury cars, everyone's first choice will think of BBA. Indeed, as a traditional luxury brand, many budget-rich "prospective car owners" will give priority to these three brands when buying luxury cars. However, in recent years, with the continuous rise of new energy vehicles, the advantages of BBA are no longer obvious. Many of the new force car companies that have come after them have begun to become one of the important choices for users to buy cars. In the 400,000 level, the new Zhiji L7 is directly benchmarked against the BMW V Series recently, and occupies a lot of advantages in many aspects, so who are you more optimistic about this "fairy fight"?
Zhiji Automobile was established on December 25, 2020, is a new user-based automobile science and technology innovation company jointly created by SAIC Motor, Zhangjiang Hi-Tech and Alibaba Group, as the first model of Zhiji Automobile - Zhiji L7, has been concerned by many car fans, but for the price of new cars 368,800 yuan - 408,800 yuan, I don't know if you can accept it?
Inside and outside, the appearance wins
In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the Zhiji L7 are: 5098/1960/1485mm, the wheelbase is 3100mm, and the BMW 5 Series PHEV has a body length, width and height of 5106/1868/1490mm, and a wheelbase of 3105mm. The two cars are basically the same in terms of size, of which the Zhiji L7 is slightly wider and the BMW 5 Series is slightly longer.
Zhiji Automobile prepared a sci-fi styling design for the L7, the appearance continued the design style of the concept car, the front of the car adopted a closed grille, the design of the headlight group is also very recognizable, and the headlights are made with a sharp shape similar to "∑", which enhances the momentum of the front face. And at the bottom of the A-pillar, black trim strips are integrated, giving people a visual feeling similar to a suspended roof.
In the side part of the car, the Zhiji L7 adopts a large slipback shape that represents sports, and after combined with the through-type taillights with programmable text function on the upper tail, the sense of science fiction has been significantly improved. In terms of appearance, the overall silhouette of the Zhiji L7 is full of futuristic, and bmw is much more decent,
Power performance, wisdom L7 strength crushed
In terms of performance parameters, the maximum power of the Zhiji L7 is 425kW and the peak torque is 725N·m, which is particularly close to the parameters of the BMW M5 4.4T V8 engine (maximum power 441kW, peak torque 750N·m). In addition, the actual acceleration and braking performance, the Zhiji L7 is as low as 3.87s and 32.69m, while the BMW M5 is measured at 3.54s and 32.67m.
As we all know, the BMW M5 belongs to the performance car, which is a model that can get off the track, which is completely different from the ordinary 5 Series. Moreover, there is also a big gap between the price of BMW 5 series and M5, if you can have M5 at the price of 5 series, then I believe everyone is willing to pay. Nowadays, zhiji L7 has the performance performance of BMW M5, which can truly realize the experience of the price M of the 5 series, and in terms of control performance, Zhiji L7 is better.
The Zhiji L7 is not only fast, with the mercedes-Benz S and other models equipped with the rear wheel steering system, the L7 successfully grasps the essence of luxury brand driving control. Coupled with the aluminum alloy materials on the chassis and the tuning of the engineering team that is homologous to the F1 Williams team, in the cornering scene, the Zhiji L7 can be delicately processed and successfully counterattack the million-class luxury car.
The Zhiji L7 is equipped with dual motors front and rear, and its intelligent dynamic four-wheel drive technology can realize the intelligent distribution of front and rear axle power. In addition, the body drag coefficient of zhiji L7 is only 0.21. In terms of endurance, the new car will be equipped with two different capacity battery packs of 93 kWh and 115 kWh, of which the 115 kWh battery pack adopts silicon-doped lithium supplement technology, which can achieve an energy density of 300Wh/kg of a single body. The current standard 93 kWh version has a maximum cruising range of 615km.
Smart leader to PK BMW 5 Series
In terms of intelligent driving, BMW currently uses the MobileEye Q4 chip, the computing power is only 2.5TOPS, can only identify simple low-definition image materials and millimeter-wave radar materials, for higher pixel cameras and lidar signal processing capabilities are weak. The algorithm of its operation is relatively simple, and it is completely powerless to encounter complex scenarios such as rain and snow days, large curvature bends and so on.
Equipped with NVIDIA's Orin series chips, the Zhiji L7 can provide more than 1000 TOPS final power to process the massive data output of many sensing components. Through 12 high-definition cameras, 5 millimeter-wave radars, 12 ultrasonic radars, military-grade high-precision IMUs, Zhonghaiting high-precision maps, and V2X (auxiliary role), the new car can realize assisted driving functions including full-speed domain adaptive cruise, linear driving, lane departure assistance, visual fusion parking and so on. In addition, subsequent users can also upgrade the lidar and Orin computing platforms to achieve higher-order intelligent assisted driving. For the first time, Zhiji also used a "full-process data-driven algorithm" to improve the experience of autonomous driving.
The Zhiji L7 is equipped with a 39-inch giant smart scene screen and a 12.8-inch AMOLED central screen that is exceptionally eye-catching, and the BMW 5 Series uses a traditional suspension 12.3-inch central control screen and a 12.3-inch LCD instrument, without much surprise. In today's continuous iteration of smart models, the BMW 5 Series is obviously a little lacking in stamina.
With the advent of the era of automotive intelligence, the design of the BMW 5 Series is difficult for people to link it with intelligent technology. Importantly, with the continuous changes of the times, the Zhiji L7 can continue to iteratively upgrade and empower different new technologies, while the BMW 5 Series is slightly inferior. Technical iteration upgrades, the endurance of the Zhiji L7 can be improved, and the only advantage of fuel vehicles will be completely "smoothed out".
Comments
Zhiji L7 uses the "longest electric drift" world record to prove itself, at least the Zhiji L7 is not only a new model of world-class performance level of the strength of the verification, but also China's high-end intelligent electric car relying on electrification technology to subvert the traditional luxury car technical barriers and game rules, the era of taking the lead in shaping the new world of intelligent electric driving control has arrived. The reason why zhiji L7 dares to directly call the BMW 5 series is not without reason. If you happen to have a car purchase budget of more than 400,000 yuan, will new energy be your first choice?
