In the minds of some domestic consumers, buying a car is to buy those traditional luxury brands, such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, etc., because they feel that the products of these brands have better handling and comfort, and even disdain to understand the current independent brands.
Take the ideal ONE, the official guidance price of this car is 349,800 yuan, and even the starting price of the BMW X3 is not high, but the ideal ONE has long occupied the top of the sales list of medium and large SUVs, indicating that this car is indeed highly recognized by consumers. We compare the two models once and the answer will be clear.
It is also a 300,000-class SUV
The body size is so much different
As a consumer, the primary reason for buying a car is to facilitate transportation, followed by the fact that you can take your family to a self-driving tour with your family during the holidays, so that the vehicle requires a large enough space to ensure the comfort of all passengers in the car, and you will not feel too tired during the journey, otherwise the holiday is not as comfortable as "lying flat" in bed.
Unless the interior layout of the car is extremely unreasonable, the space in the car is not large, in fact, it depends on the body size and wheelbase. According to the car uncle, the ideal ONE body length and width height is 5030mm, 1960mm, 1760mm, wheelbase is 2935mm; BMW X3's body length, width and height are 4737mm, 1891mm, 1689mm, and wheelbase is 2864mm. In comparison with the two, the ideal ONE is the BMW X3 in terms of body size and wheelbase, and the ideal ONE uses a 6-seat layout in the car, and the first row of seats and the second row of seats are equipped with seat heating and seat massage, which is definitely one of the most comfortable models in the same price point.
The advantages of large-size models are not only comfort, the current ideal ONE as a 6-seat model, the two seats in the rear support 50:50 ratio to put down, after the rear compartment space will be greatly expanded, usually pull some large luggage has no problem, this advantage is small size SUV does not have.
Technology configuration is a trend
Ideal ONE keeps up with the times
As young people become the main force of automobile consumption, consumers attach great importance to the technological configuration of cars, and the stronger the atmosphere of technology in the car, the greater the attraction to consumers. First look at the BMW X3, the interior design of this car is very conservative, the layout of the entire center console has no highlights, not only no sense of fashion, but even slightly dull, the floating central control screen assembled on the center console is like a temporary patchwork, which looks very uncoordinated. BMW's interior design has not always been an advantage, but being so unenterprising will only get more and more behind the times.
In contrast, the ideal ONE, the entire center console of this car presents a symmetrical "T" type layout, in line with the aesthetics of domestic consumers, and at the same time, the center console is equipped with a large screen composed of three screens, and there is a large screen below it, which can be interacted with between the four screens, and it is also very convenient to operate, bringing a perfect experience to the user. More importantly, the screen in front of the ideal ONE co-pilot mainly plays an entertainment role, in this screen you can watch movies, listen to radio, listen to music, etc., so that the journey is full of fun.
Comparing the ideal ONE with the BMW X3's top-of-the-line model 2022 modified xDrive 30i Premium M Yao Ye Suit model, the price of the Ideal ONE is 130,000 yuan lower, but the configuration is not necessarily less than the BMW X3 2022 modified xDrive 30i Premium M Yao Night Suit. Judging from the configuration table, the ideal ONE is equipped with a front knee airbag, at least in terms of safety, and the steering wheel is also equipped with a heating function as standard, bringing warmth to the driver in winter. In addition, the seat material of the ideal ONE is Nappa leather, and the seat of the BMW X3 2022 modified xDrive 30i Premium M Yao Night Suit model is still imitation leather material, and the better material has a better touch, and the sincerity of the ideal ONE is reflected here.
Better experience
Only need to be lower car maintenance costs
Generally speaking, consumers who can afford to buy 300,000 yuan of cars have reached the level of the middle class in China, and they are not particularly concerned about the cost of raising a car, but it is best to save money, who will feel that there is more money? Therefore, the cost of car maintenance is also an important factor in measuring whether a car is worth buying, so which car is more economical than the maintenance cost of the ideal ONE compared to the BMW X3?
The ideal ONE adopts a range extended range power system, equipped with dual motors with a maximum system comprehensive power of 245 kW, a system comprehensive torque of 455 N·m, and zero hundred acceleration can be completed in only 6.5 s. At the same time, the car is equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged ranger and a ternary lithium battery with a capacity of 40.5kWh, the pure electric mileage can reach 188km, and the comprehensive fuel consumption of NEDC 100 km is only 1.5L.
BMW X3 is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, matching the 8-speed manual transmission, and is divided into two types of power, the 2022 xDrive25i M Sport suit model has a maximum horsepower of 184Ps and a peak torque of 300 N·m, zero hundred acceleration requires 8.9s to complete, NEDC 100 km comprehensive fuel consumption is 8.3L; the 2022 xDrive30i power class has a maximum horsepower of 252Ps and a peak torque of 350N·m. The time required for zero-100 acceleration is 6.8s, and the comprehensive fuel consumption of NEDC is 8.7L per 100 kilometers.
From the above sets of data, it can be seen that the acceleration ability of the ideal ONE is stronger, thanks to the fact that it is equipped with a power battery, so the comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is also lower, and the size of the key ideal ONE is a full circle larger than that of the BMW X3, which is surprising with the acceleration level and fuel economy. From the data of the professional media platform, BMW X3, whether it is a high-power version or a low-power version, the total cost of maintenance of 60,000km is estimated to be 13,276 yuan, while the estimated total cost of maintenance of the ideal ONE's 60,000km is only 9,038 yuan.
Uncle Che summed up
Ignoring the brand aura, from the space, configuration, power, fuel economy and other aspects of the all-round comparison, the ideal ONE product strength is better than the BMW X3, but the price difference between the two is quite different. As a family car, the ideal ONE is indeed very competent, its comfort can satisfy all passengers, and the rich high-tech configuration can also make it more convenient and fun for users to travel, and the cost performance is self-evident. The product chosen by most people does not necessarily have any shortcomings, but it is definitely flawed, as a new energy model with high sales, the ideal ONE is still worth buying, of course, the premise is that you can refuse the temptation of blue sky and white clouds.
