As the first SUV launched by Geely Automobile Group's high-end pure electric brand, Geometry C is equipped with the industry-first SEM intelligent energy management system independently developed by Geometry Automobile. Officials say that its endurance accuracy is close to 100%, and its endurance is up to 40%. The market guidance price of Geometry C is 135,700 to 172,700 yuan, and the endurance is divided into two versions: 400km and 550km, and the cumulative sales volume in 2022 is 4788 vehicles.
Recently, Upstream News was invited to participate in the long-distance test drive of Geometry C, through the Congested Sections of Qianpumen Bridge, Hongya Cave and other congested sections to experience its kinetic energy recovery feedback; it also alternated on the urban expressway and the rugged mountain road. In the case of turning on the air conditioner throughout the test drive and not deliberately using the energy-saving mode, the geometric C true endurance is not false, and the actual driving mileage is consistent with the table display, which is very competitive in the electric vehicle market.
The excellent endurance accuracy of the Geometry C is due to its energy return and control management. In terms of energy recovery, the Geometry C is equipped with the Bosch IBOOOSTER energy recovery system, which has a braking energy recovery efficiency of nearly 100%, and about 30% of the endurance during driving comes from energy recovery. If you are driving an ECO economy model, this energy recovery will be more obvious. On urban roads, lightly pressing the accelerator can achieve the effect of lightly pressing the brakes, making driving easier and easier. In terms of energy control, Geometry C adopts the industry's original SOC mileage algorithm, integrates the VCU vehicle controller and the BMS battery management system, and realizes the remaining endurance and actual endurance accuracy of nearly 100% through four sets of SOC calculation logic weighting, so that the endurance is more and more accurate.
It is worth mentioning that Geometry C is also equipped with a self-learning VCU prediction algorithm, which accurately predicts the mileage that can be driven by the current power by calculating the average energy consumption of the vehicle in the previous driving mile and the identification of driving conditions in real time. It's also powered by dual-SOC-weighted BMS battery management technology that monitors the battery in real time and keeps it in top condition at all times.
In addition to excellent endurance, this test drive experience also allowed everyone to have a deeper understanding of its appearance and interior design language. The exterior design continues the design language of the geometric family "multi-dimensional flowing lifeform", and its front grille adopts a closed design, and the deflectors are provided on both sides of the bumper to reduce wind resistance. Matrix LED headlights are narrow and sharp, and the three strips on the outside of the LED daily running lights can provide high recognition both day and night.
The interior continues the simple scientific and technological wind of the appearance, and a lot of geometric design elements have been added to the center console, equipped with a 5-inch LCD instrument + 12.3-inch central control screen, the air conditioning control panel is integrated in the air conditioning outlet, the knob-type gear and the honeycomb touch buttons, etc., all show a good scientific and technological atmosphere.
With a length, width and height of 4432/1833/1560 mm and a wheelbase of 2700 mm, the geometry C is very high in the same class, and the rear space is very generous. During the test drive, the author also experienced a "lying flat" test ride in the back row for nearly an hour, and compared with the same level, the seat wrapping and comfort of the geometric C were of a medium to high level.
Since the release of the brand, Geometric Cars has always started from the needs of users and created pure electric models for users that exceed expectations. In the endurance challenge held by the media, Geometry A Pro and Geometry C have won the evaluation championship for 9 consecutive times, and the highest battery life cashing rate has reached 116.7%. In terms of cabin health, the formaldehyde content of geometric cars is only 1/8 of the national standard (0.1mg/m). At the same time, Geometry A Pro and Geometry C also adopt 8 strict battery safety tests, with L2 intelligent driving assistance, 540 ° AR chassis perspective and other intelligent configurations.
