In the face of the current development trend of accelerating the transformation of the automobile market from fuel to new energy, independent brands have emerged and continuously provided better and better choices for consumers with user-oriented. But it is undeniable that in the current price range of 30~400,000 yuan, Tesla Model Y is still a choice that many consumers cannot avoid. As the saying goes: the gun shoots the first bird, and the subsequent new car-making products continue to impact this model, as a rising star, although the Skyfan R7 landed on the market later, but it understands domestic consumers better in the control of market demand and user demand, and its competitiveness cannot be underestimated. So in this round of head-to-head confrontation, which is the stronger and weaker Tesla Model Y and Skyfan R7? Today we will analyze it well.
From the perspective of selling price, the subsidized price range of the Feifan R7 is 27.99~389,900 yuan, and the price range of Model Y after subsidies is 26.19~361,900 yuan. For the sake of fairness, we select the 2023 Feifan R7 performance screen version priced at 319,900 yuan, and the 2022 Model Y facelift long-range all-wheel drive version with a guide price of 311,900 yuan for comparative analysis, the price of the two versions of the model is very close, so under this premise, which model will be more prominent?
Outstanding intelligence, more prominent scientific and technological atmosphere
As a pure electric model, Tesla Model Y and Skyfan R7 both adopt a simple styling design, but in terms of the final visual effect, the Skyfan R7 is undoubtedly more dominant, of which the whole line of the car is more rigid, the front part matches the split light group and the through-type LED light strip, and the visual effect is more personalized. At the same time, the body line of the car is smooth and smooth, the top of the car has a large sliding back design, and the rear through tail light group echoes the front part. In contrast, the body of the Model Y is thicker and heavier, the visual effect is slightly bloated, and its body posture is relatively low, which is inferior to the Skyfan R7 in terms of passability.
At the same time, the two models also have completely different visual experiences in the interior design part. The Model Y's minimalist interior design has indeed led the trend for a long time, but the cabin layout of the car is too simple, and only a large-sized floating display screen is matched on the center console of the car, and the details lack decorative elements, which is almost meaningless in terms of class.
The comprehensive texture of the interior of the Skyfan R7 is more prominent, among which the new car's center console matches the three-screen design with a comprehensive size of 43 inches, and the screen and air conditioning vents and other elements are staggered, effectively enhancing the sense of technology in the interior part. The dual-width steering wheel directly in front of the main driver has a unique shape, and the button areas on both sides are like gamepads, full of technology. At the same time, the car also introduces a double-color interior color scheme, the details are integrated with Nappa leather material, piano lacquer plaque and silver decorative parts, effectively enhancing the luxury of the entire cockpit.
In addition, the two cars also have a certain gap in intelligent technology configuration, among which at the intelligent driving level, Skyfan R7 matches 28 perception hardware, supports L2 intelligent driving assistance system, built-in NVIDIA DRIVE Orin chip has a total computing power of 254Tops, and the car supports dual-chip options, and the total computing power of the optional chip can reach 508Tops. The Model Y vehicle only matches 21 perception hardware, although it can also achieve L2 intelligent driving assistance system, but compared with the Skyfan R7 lacks automatic lane change assistance and other functions, the FSD chip equipped with the car only has 144Tops computing power. In terms of intelligent cockpit, compared with Model Y, the SkyFan R7 also has Huawei's visually enhanced AR-HUD, streaming mirror, HD map, facial recognition and other functions.
Positioning crush, one larger Model Y
From the perspective of product positioning, Model Y belongs to a mid-size SUV, with a specific length, width and height of 4750×1921×1624mm, and a wheelbase of 2890mm. The Skyfan R7 is positioned as a medium and large SUV, it is also known as the big one Model Y, its specific length, width and height are 4900×1925×1655mm, wheelbase 2950mm, all data are significantly ahead.
When the body data is reflected in the actual seating space performance, the Skyfan R7 will naturally have more advantages, in which the rear legroom of the car can reach more than two punches, the head room is about one punch and three fingers, the central floor is fully flat, and the panoramic sunroof brings a better sense of space for rear passengers. At the same time, the softness of the seats in the Skyfan R7 is better than that of Model Y, and the actual ride is more comfortable, and in terms of seat functions, the Skyfan R7 also has more front seat ventilation/massage, front passenger seat power seat memory, and passenger leg rest adjustment.
Plenty of power, with the ability to break 100 in 3.8 seconds
Let's take a look at the performance and endurance performance of the two models, the models we selected belong to the front and rear dual motor version, of which the comprehensive maximum output of the electric motor of the Skyfan R7 is 400 kW, the peak torque is 700 Nm, and the whole vehicle has the ability to break 100 in 3.8 seconds, and the performance is extremely strong. Model Y's electric motor has a combined maximum output of 331 kW, a peak torque of 559 Nm, and an official acceleration time of 5 seconds per 100 km/h, although its performance is also relatively good, but it is significantly behind the Skyfan R7.
In terms of range, the Skyfan R7 and Model Y match battery packs with a capacity of 90 kWh and 78.4 kWh, respectively, and the corresponding CLTC cruising range is 606km and 660km, respectively. In contrast, the Skyfan R7's battery pack has a larger capacity and a cruising range of more than 600km, which is not a problem to meet the needs of most users, but it sacrifices some endurance in terms of performance.
summary
Overall, Tesla Model Y and Skyfan R7 are highly overlapping in terms of price, and there is the most direct competition between the two cars. Through the comparison of the above two vehicles, it can be seen that the higher-level Skyfan R7 has completed the suppression of Tesla Model Y in terms of intelligence level, space performance and performance. From the perspective of the actual use of the car by ordinary consumers, we are still more inclined to recommend the Skyfan R7, after all, the cost performance and product power of the car are more prominent.
