There is no doubt that Lantu Dreamer is not the first new energy MPV product, but it is a new power electric MPV model with enough heat and topic. The reason is the pre-price of Lantu Dreamer, the price of the 7-seat version is 380,000-480,000 yuan, and the 4-seat customized version has reached 600,000 yuan, which will increase the price of the domestic MPV to the luxury brand range. The heat comes from the configuration and positioning of the dreamer, and the official said that the new car is the standard model alpha, and it is comprehensively higher than all products at the same level in terms of power, intelligence and configuration.
In this way, the ambition of the Lantu dreamer is still not small, and the strategy has directly skipped popular models such as honda odyssey and Buick GL8, and has gone straight to the high-end luxury level. Of course, it is easy to shout slogans, it is difficult to do, and when it actually lands, let's see what it takes to do all this, and where Lan Tu's confidence in this dreamer comes from.
How does the Dreamer ride and rear row perform?
First of all, the focus of an MPV is undoubtedly in the rear, and the first thing that the owner of the MPV values is the space and comfort of the passengers. The body size of the Lantu Dreamer is 5315/1980/1810mm, relying on the design of the short front suspension long wheelbase, the wheelbase can reach 3200mm, which is probably second only to the Mercedes-Benz V-class long shaft version. And when Che Yunqi sat in the driver's seat, he realized that this car would have a better experience not only from the seat side.
The seven-seat version of the Lantu Dreamer has a seat layout of 2+2+3, the front, middle and rear rows of seats maintain a high degree of consistency, the seats themselves are wide and thick, and the surface is decorated with a diamond-shaped dermal pattern, and the visual effect is very advanced. In detail, the softness of its seat padding is not the feeling that you will sink in as soon as you sit on it, but it is slightly tough, has good support, and is also moderately soft and hard. Unlike the Nissan "big sofa" that just sits down, the advantage of the Lantu Dreamer seat is that you won't feel tired even after a long ride.
Coming to the second row is the top priority of the Lantu Dreamer, its seat retains the characteristics mentioned above, but also adds electric leg rest, waist support, heating ventilation, seat massage function, these configurations can bring a quite comfortable feeling to passengers when riding. In addition, in the second row, there are also switch buttons with electric side door changes, air conditioning control panels, USB charging ports, small table boards, small drawers, and cup holders, which can be described as taking care of everything.
The second row naturally does not have to worry about the riding space, when in the state of four people in the car, you can use the ultra-long slide rail, slid backwards sharply, almost forming a lying flat space.
As Che Yun fungus just mentioned, the difference between the seven seats of the Lantu Dreamer is not large, which means that even if you come to the third row, the seats still do not feel thin, and because you have a higher platform, you will not have the feeling of sitting on a "small bench".
As for the third row of seating space is not a relative advantage, if the second row of seats in the backmost position, then the third row is definitely unable to sit people, need to adjust the position appropriately forward, with two 175cm standard adults riding in the second and third rows is OK, if it is higher, it will be sacrificed. Fortunately, lantu dreamer is still equipped with air conditioning outlets, cup holders and USB charging ports for passengers in the third row, and the care is still very thoughtful.
Of course, there are two sides to the quality of things, although sacrificing some riding space, but the trunk loading capacity of the Lantu Dreamer is still very good, the depth is basically the size of a checkerboard box, and after putting away the third row of seats, the depth will be greater expanded.
The interior is characterised and draws a clear line with traditional MPV
In the interior, the Lantu Dreamer also tries to maintain the same theme elements as the Lantu FREE as much as possible, such as the overall design of the wrap-around type, the horizontal three-in-a-row large screen (non-lifting), the layout of the steering wheel and the shift lever area, etc., but in the button design of the air conditioning control panel, the Lantu Dreamer has changed to touch, and the sense of grade has been improved.
The size of the three large screens is 12.3 inches, the dashboard is on the left side, the information displayed inside is very comprehensive, the interface design is simple and clear, and there is AR real-world navigation, which further improves the sense of technology. The surface of the central control screen adopts a frosted treatment, which is very practical, not only is it smoother to draw, but also the suppression of fingerprints and reflections is more effective. Thanks to the HiCar system, which is deeply cooperated with Huawei, the system is pre-installed with common apps such as Kuwo Music, Baidu Map, and Tuanyou, and it is not a problem to query the stock market, movies, weather, news, etc.
The intelligent voice interaction system increases the convenience of the car, and can use voice commands for air conditioning, windows, sunroofs, trunks, instruments, seats, etc., and supports natural language recognition and scene-based commands, such as "I am sleepy", the vehicle will directly make the window open 25%, the sunroof tilt, the air conditioning outside the loop, play lively style music This series of actions.
In addition to the commonly used functions in the multimedia screen, there are two functions of transparent chassis and rear monitoring, the former can improve safety in the driving, and the rear monitoring can more intuitively see the status of the rear passengers, such as taking children out, you can always observe the emotions of children.
The screen in front of the co-pilot is mainly air conditioning, entertainment, vehicle status, etc., of course, here you can also play games, KK songs, but also a good helper to relieve fatigue in long-distance driving.
From the back row to the front row, we can see that Lantu Dreamer cares for everyone in the car, and fully considers the various use scenarios of the family car "many, miscellaneous and large" from the perspective of "people" and "things", which not only creates a flexible and comfortable environment for the rear row, but also can be called a "mobile living room", a good helper for proper family travel.
The size is large but unusually easy to open
In fact, as a medium and large MPV of Lantu dreamer, there is another identity - "Daddy Car", the driving performance of the whole vehicle, texture creation will be around its positioning, simply put, comfortable, easy to drive is an essential "drama".
Powerly, the Pure Electric Version of Lantu Dreamer is equipped with dual motors, the maximum power is 320 kilowatts, the peak torque is 620 Nm, and the zero hundred acceleration is 5.9 seconds; and the extended range version of the Model driven by Che Yun bacteria this time is also a dual motor, with a maximum power of 290 kilowatts, a peak torque of 610 Nm, and a zero hundred acceleration of 6.9 seconds, from its overall book parameters, the overall strength of the Lantu Dreamer is indeed in the upper class level of the MPV model.
In the case of sufficient power, the power of the Lantu Dreamer is completely unnecessary to worry, in the normal driving, the dynamic performance of the Lantu Dreamer is almost the same as the feeling of pure electric vehicles, relying on pure electric drive, the power response is very linear.
But on this car, the power feedback between the various driving modes will still give people a clear distinction. Che Yun bacteria feel that in the comfort mode is still very pleasing to the passengers in the car, how much to step on how much acceleration performance is not very extreme, can fully ensure the passenger's riding comfort.
In contrast, the high-energy mode has more "tram" characteristics, although it can be felt that there is still some buffer space between the initial section and the peak acceleration, but the moment you step on the acceleration pedal, the motor power has been very "direct", without waiting for the speed to climb is also the biggest difference between the motor and the internal combustion engine. And at this time, the damping feedback of the suspension will also be completely different from the performance in comfort mode.
Since the focus is comfortable, the chassis and suspension system are also an important part of it, and the front double wishbone independent suspension assembled on the Lantu Dreamer is rare in the MPV model, because among many models in the same class, the most used is basically the lower-cost McPherson independent suspension. The combination of the independent suspension of the front double wishbone and the suspension of the rear five connecting rods is combined with the three major blessings of the CDC shock absorption control system to give the vehicle a more comfortable dynamic driving performance.
Walking on the city road hanging is very soft, Lantu dreamers will have a "sense of boating". But it doesn't make you shake your head, and it can completely isolate the fine bumps. On the high speed, the toughness of the chassis will be a little more sufficient, and the feeling of flickering and flickering when paralleling and turning is still there, but the amplitude is much smaller. The city is like a two-person sightseeing boat, which has become a 10,000-ton cruise ship on the highway. When encountering cracked and broken pavement, slow down, "bang bang" two crisp and clean, excess shaking or impact? inexistent.
Followed by NVH performance, Lantu Dreamer used 80 sound insulation and noise reduction technologies throughout the car, such as motor noise reduction, engine noise reduction, excess vibration and double-layer sound insulation glass treatment. In the actual experience, the inside and outside of the car are like two worlds, and the sound of the engine is not perceived during driving, and the wind noise and road noise control are also quite good.
Finally, talking about the driving assistance function of Lantu Dreamer, he can achieve L2 level automatic driving, support ACC adaptive cruise, lane assist holding, AEB automatic braking, remote parking, night vision system, 360 ° imaging and other up to 26 functions.
Among them, Che Yunmei focused on experiencing the automatic lane change function of Lantu Dreamer, when the Pilot system is activated, by flicking the steering lever, the system will confirm that the surrounding environment can execute the lane change command and the target lane line is clear, and can complete the lane action by itself. From the experience point of view, Lantu Dreamers are somewhat sensitive to the grasp of the distance between the near lanes, and will reserve a large space for paralleling, and the advantage is that they will not make dangerous parallel actions. However, the steering range will be slightly anxious during the parallel process, and the personnel in the car will have a more obvious feeling.
Che Yun summary
From the perspective of the product type, overall configuration and dynamic performance of the vehicle, the Lantu Dreamer is indeed a unique model in the MPV market, why? From a traditional point of view, high configuration is one thing, but there are not many models that integrate many intelligent configurations into MPV, coupled with the pre-price of 380,000 yuan, it is that Lantu Dreamers seem to be unable to find a matching competitor at this stage. Today's domestic new energy MPV market has provided fertile "soil", at this time who can insert the first batch of seedlings into this soil earlier, who can harvest opportunities earlier. Che Yun fungus believes that Lantu Dreamer has the strength to gain after listing, and also has the strength to be a dreamer.
