The polar fox turnaround battle, the new HI version of Alpha S ushered in a new era of intelligent driving

Huawei's entry into the automotive industry is nothing new, including ARCFOX Polar Fox, AITO Q&Awei, and Avita have all cooperated with Huawei. Nowadays, as long as it is Huawei's "circle of friends", it will be accompanied by many topics.

On May 7, the world's first mass-produced car equipped with HI Huawei's full-stack intelligent car solution, the New HI version of The Jihu Alpha S, was officially launched, with a price range of 397,900 to 429,900 yuan. The new car seems to be a product of in-depth cooperation between Jihu and Huawei, but it is actually a huge progress of smart cars in China.

All-round upgrades give the new HI version of Polar Fox Alpha S an overwhelming advantage

The new HI version of Polar Fox Alpha S still belongs to the product sequence of Pole Fox Alpha S, but compared with the ordinary version, the new car has been upgraded from the inside out in all aspects and has created a number of global firsts. It is not only the world's first mass-produced car equipped with HI-Huawei's full-stack intelligent vehicle solution, the world's first high-end pure-powered sedan equipped with Huawei's smart cockpit-Hongmeng car machine OS, but also the world's first mass-produced car that supports high-end intelligent driving on urban roads.

In the internal upgrade, the new car relies on the first 800V high-voltage mass production car platform in China to build, its battery system supports 800V, 250A super fast charging, charging power up to 187kW, charging 10 minutes can supplement the cruising range of nearly 200km, charging from 30% to 80% only takes 15 minutes, which also makes the new car can minimize the range anxiety caused by pure electric vehicles.

In addition, the new car adopts the combination of front-drive asynchronous motor + rear-drive synchronous motor, the peak power of the four-wheel drive motor exceeds 473 kilowatts, the peak torque exceeds 655 Nm, and the zero-hundred acceleration takes only 3.5 seconds. Its maximum power is 153 kilowatts higher than the previous performance-biased 603H version, and the acceleration capacity is increased by 2.7 seconds. Not only that, the new HI version of Polar Fox Alpha S can also achieve 20 consecutive uninterrupted 100-kilometer acceleration without decay, truly bringing supercar acceleration experience.

In addition, if you want to experience a smoother driving experience, you can also choose a customized ramp mode and track mode. Drivers can also customize the vehicle's handling settings to independently adjust the four-drive force distribution, vehicle stability control and regenerative braking, whether they are keen on drift, like to shock lap recording, or want to practice vehicle handling by switching different settings, they can find the right solution in the track mode and enjoy a more extreme handling experience.

Externally, the most significant difference between the new car is the addition of multiple perception systems in the front and rear surrounds. Specifically, its perception system includes 3 lidar, 6 millimeter-wave radar, 13 cameras, and 12 ultrasonic radars, which can achieve multi-layer perception and mutual redundancy. The decision system supports the simultaneous calculation of two sets of high-power chips in the intelligent driving master controller. In the steering and braking systems, the steering system and braking system with dual controllers are designed respectively. Thanks to the six-in-one fully redundant design, the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S can greatly guarantee the normal operation of one system if the other system fails. In other words, the new HI version of Polar Fox Alpha S gives users a comprehensive "double insurance" to ensure that the system runs worry-free in all aspects of the whole scene to the greatest extent and protect the user's travel safety.

After the upgrade from the inside out, the new HI version of the Polar Fox Alpha S can be described as a rebirth and change, and it is already in a far leading position in the same level. Although the new HI version of Polar Fox Alpha S has been waiting for a full year from release to official listing, it still has overwhelming advantages.

The mutual empowerment of Huawei and Jihu shows the high-end of the new era

As a product of in-depth cooperation between Huawei and Jihu, the new car can be described as a mutual empowerment of both sides. From Huawei's technical empowerment, the most important embodiment is the Huawei Hongmeng vehicle machine system equipped with the new car. We all know that Huawei's Hongmeng OS has achieved the interconnection of mobile phones, computers, tablets and smart homes. This time, Huawei's Hongmeng car machine is the same, supporting the interconnection of car machine mobile phones, supporting mobile phone counter-control car machines, and truly illuminating the dream of interconnected life into reality.

At the same time, the software created based on the Hongmeng system has always had the advantages of faster start-up and safer use environment, and can also be deeply customized and customized according to the user's use needs. For the car machine, the Hongmeng system not only retains the advantages of the original mobile phone, but also develops up to more than 30 models of car machine application ecology, and the advantages of the Hongmeng system are placed in the car machine, which is bound to help driving safety. For example, faster start-up means that the driver can reduce the time it takes to implement the transfer, and custom windows can define the functional position according to the driver's habits.

In addition, this set of car machines also supports gesture recognition to precisely control music, gesture control cars, full-scene voice and other functions. Among them, the functionality of the full-scene voice control is very powerful, and all the text that appears on the screen can be opened or the corresponding content can be opened or found through the way of voice, so as to achieve the integration of human-vehicle interaction.

The empowerment of the polar fox is reflected in its study of the supply chain. As we all know, Polar Fox has always chosen to cooperate with Magna in terms of production and manufacturing, and the two sides have established a high-end intelligent pure electric vehicle research and development and manufacturing center. At the rear of the Polar Fox, we can also clearly see the logo of the Blue Valley Magna. Magna has more than 100 years of development, during which time more than 3.7 million luxury flagship models have been licensed, which means that Magna's standardized manufacturing process provides vehicle solutions for the Polar Fox brand. In addition, Polar Fox has also cooperated with more than 70 world-renowned supply chain companies such as South Korea's SK Battery, Germany's Siemens, France's Valeo, and BorgWarner's United States to better provide Vehicle solutions for Extreme Fox.

On the other hand, the IMC architecture used by Polar Fox Alpha S is very open, which can achieve super expansion, super intelligence, super interaction, super evolution, and provide complete hardware such as 5G T-Box, V2X module, and large computing chip. In order to provide a guarantee for undertaking more advanced intelligent driving systems and intelligent cockpit systems, the new HI version of Jihu Alpha S has the first advanced intelligent driving experience in urban areas and the first cockpit system that runs smoothly in the Hongmeng ecosystem, all thanks to the upgrade of the IMC architecture in the field of intelligence.

Today's high-end models are no longer limited to the comfort and functional configuration of leather seats, panoramic sunroofs, and automatic air conditioning, but are more reflected in the level of intelligence and convenience. The new HI version of Alpha S launched by Huawei and Jihu has made a qualitative leap in intelligence and convenience, worthy of the title of Jihu, a high-end brand.

For the first time, it is equipped with 800V high-voltage overcharge technology, which can supplement the cruising range of nearly 200km in 10 minutes; coupled with its acceleration ability to enter the 3-second club and the blessing of Huawei's full-stack intelligence, it has undoubtedly become one of the most important products in the recently listed new cars. However, today coincides with a period when the entire automotive industry is fraught with uncertainties, and for the current Polar Fox, the most important thing is to grab scarce resources in the market. I believe that after solving this problem, the new HI version of Polar Fox Alpha S is bound to deduce a bit of a latecomer to catch up.
