Pole Fox new coupe, with Hongmeng intelligent cockpit, with 3 laser radar, is it worth buying?

On the evening of May 7, the new HI version of BAIC Jihu Alpha S was officially launched, and a total of 2 new cars were launched, namely the advanced version and the high-end version, priced between 397,900 yuan and 429,900 yuan.

The pricing of the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S is not low, and this price can basically buy the entry-level version of the same level of luxury brands, like the Audi A6L start-up version. Even if the standard is the same level of pure electric vehicles, the price of about 400,000 is basically the top stream.

So, what is the material of the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S, and can it support this price? Today I will take you to a good look.

Want to play smart cards?

As we all know, one of the most significant labels of pure electric vehicles is intelligence. Whether it is Tesla, which people began to know in the early days, or Xiaopeng Motors in the later stage, it is particularly prominent in terms of intelligence.

Simply put, users pay attention to intelligence mainly at two levels, one is the intelligent driving assistance function, and the other is the intelligent car-machine interaction system centered on intelligent voice.

Let's take a look at the intelligent driving assistance features of the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S. As a high-end intelligent luxury pure electric vehicle, the new HI version of The Extreme Fox Alpha S is almost all full in terms of intelligent driving software and hardware.

In terms of hardware, the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S is equipped with a total of 3 lidars, which is currently the world's first production car equipped with 3 lidars. One of them is equipped directly in front of the detection distance of 150 meters, and the other two are equipped on both sides, with a detection distance of 80 meters.

In addition to 3 lidars, the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S is also equipped with 6 millimeter wave radars, 12 ultrasonic radars and 13 high-definition cameras, and the number of hardware is more than the current strongest Xiaopeng P5, of course, this has a certain relationship with the price difference between the two.

These detection hardware and lidar allow the new HI version of The Extreme Fox Alpha S to realize the ADS high-level intelligent driving system, which is the so-called highway automatic driving (basic class) and the urban high-level intelligent driving function (advanced version).

This is also another high-level intelligent driving assistance function after Tesla NOA, Xiaopeng NGP and NIO NOP.

Of course, if you want to make the experience better, only hardware is not enough. In terms of software, the autopilot central supercomputer ADCSC equipped with the new HI version of Polar Fox Alpha S has a computing power of up to 400 TOPS, that is, the calculation speed of the chip in 1 second can reach up to 40 billion times, which is very exaggerated, and it is necessary to know that the computing power of Tesla's self-developed chip is only 144 TOPS.

All mentioned above are the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S, which has advantages in terms of intelligent driving assistance functions. In terms of intelligent vehicle interaction, the new HI version of Jihu Alpha S is equipped with Hongmeng intelligent cockpit, and it is also the first batch of intelligent cars equipped with Hongmeng OS.

Thanks to the Hongmeng OS software platform, the new HI version of Jihu Alpha S can realize some multi-scenario deep interaction definition at the intelligent interaction level, which is simply that its "ecosystem" will be wider.

For example, it can achieve intelligent split screen, and it can also make the car and mobile phone seamlessly connected, including the second flow of video or call.

The 12.3-inch + 21.7-inch 4K HD all-in-one screen can not only achieve three-screen linkage with HUD, but also support custom UI interface distribution, with single-player mode and two-player mode, and support CarPlay and CarLife mobile phone interconnection.

From the perspective of intelligence, the new HI version of Jihu Alpha S, with the joint support of Huawei's full-stack intelligent car solution and Hongmeng car machine OS system, brings the intelligent driving assistance function and vehicle-machine interaction experience of the industry front end, which is indeed a major advantage.

How does it perform other than intelligence?

Like intelligence, performance is also an inherent advantage of pure electric vehicles. In this regard, the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S is also very powerful.

The new HI version of polar fox alpha S adopts a front and rear dual motor four-wheel drive layout, the maximum output power of the front asynchronous motor is 221kW, the maximum output power of the rear synchronous motor is 252kW, the total power of the system is up to 473kW, and the maximum torque is 655N·m.

In the face of such a powerful performance, the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S can accelerate to 3.5 seconds per 100 km/ 100,000 seconds, and it is close to 3 million Lamborghini Huracán EVO RWD Spyder, whose 100 km/h acceleration time is also 3.5 seconds.

In terms of battery life, the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S is equipped with a 74.5kWh ternary lithium battery, and the NEDC cruising range is 500 kilometers. This endurance, to be honest, is not very strong, but given its performance, it is also understandable. And it is fast charging is relatively fast, from 30% to 80% only takes about 15 minutes.

Thanks to the structural advantages of pure electric vehicles, most pure electric vehicles have relatively spacious spaces. As a medium and large luxury sedan, the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S has a body size of 4980/1960/1599mm (length/width/height) and a wheelbase of 2915mm, which is closer to the size of the BYDHan EV.

In terms of design, the design of the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S has nothing to say, and the current Weilai ET7, Zhiji L7 and other pure electric vehicles of the same level are similar, futuristic, and they are also very sporty.

Regarding the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S, one of my favorite designs is its pocket gear shift form. Although it takes a certain amount of time to adapt to the first use of the gear, it is indeed more convenient than other forms of gear shifting after adaptation, and it is also helpful for the storage space in the central control area.

400,000 buy TA value? Which is the best deal?

Nowadays, the price of pure electric vehicles is generally higher, and many high-end pure electric vehicles are sold to the price of luxury fuel vehicles, which has many reasons behind it, including policies, market environment, costs and so on.

Like the price of the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S, you can basically buy most of the fuel vehicles of the same level of luxury brands. Although compared with luxury brand pure fuel vehicles, its advantages in intelligence and performance are greater, but after all, not all users pursue intelligence and performance.

This leads to a narrow user surface of such pure electric vehicles, which is why many high-end new energy vehicles, including Weilai and Ideal, are difficult to have a big breakthrough in sales. It's a bit like the relationship between luxury brands and other brands, users have needs, but not everyone has the ability to choose.

However, if the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S is compared with the pure electric vehicle of the same level, the advantages of the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S are more obvious. On the one hand, its comprehensive strength is relatively strong, and it has achieved the cutting-edge level of the industry in several dimensions that everyone pays the most attention to.

In particular, its ADS high-end intelligent driving system has obvious advantages compared with most of the high-end intelligent driving assistance functions of the same category. Especially in the face of extremely complex urban road conditions, its judgment and operation have reached the mainstream level, and it is very smart and stable.

Therefore, for the part of the user whose car has a new and more forward-looking need, the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S is a new car worth trying.

As for how to choose the new HI version of the polar fox alpha S, it depends on personal needs. If you have higher requirements for intelligence, especially intelligent driving assistance functions, then the advanced version is obviously more recommended.

If you just want performance, luxury and configuration, and don't want to give most of the initiative to the vehicle itself, then the Advanced edition can basically meet most of your needs.

However, from the pricing point of view, perhaps the high-end version of the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S will be more popular. Because the price gap between it and the advanced version is not large, but the functions that can be experienced are more advanced and more valuable.

Write at the end

I have to sigh that the times are progressing too fast, the meaning of the telephone is no longer a simple means of communication, and the car is no longer a simple means of transport. In the face of the new energy that has just started, all technologies are developing rapidly, and ITC Polar Fox can react in a short period of time, bringing a product that is at the forefront of the industry in all aspects, which is really surprising.

But what is worrying is that the current automobile market environment is not good, and most of the high-end pure electric vehicle sales are constantly declining, so the future of the new HI version of The Extreme Fox Alpha S can leap as fast as technology is still unknown, but such products are still worth looking forward to.
