With a budget of 200,000 yuan, which faction should you choose for oil cars and trams? Professor's answer this time is eπ!
Recently, Dongfeng executives posted a question on social media platforms - "200,000 to buy a gas car or a tram", which has aroused widespread attention from netizens. With the continuous development of new energy vehicles, this question is also the most received question by professors in recent years, and it seems that both the automotive industry and consumers cannot avoid this "soul question".
Since the mainland began to vigorously develop new energy, great progress has been made today, and the penetration rate of new energy vehicles has been increasing year after year. But even so, traditional fuel vehicles can still occupy half of the current automotive market, especially in certain market segments. For example, Dongfeng executives mentioned in the video that in the car market of about 200,000 yuan, traditional fuel vehicles are still the main force.
In the market segment of 200,000 yuan sedans, traditional fuel vehicles and pure electric vehicles, no matter which faction they choose, actually attract endless public justification, and mother-in-law says mother-in-law is reasonable. Pure electric vehicles say that they have good power and good texture, and the cost of using the car is still very low. No matter what you say, the reasons for both sides are reasonable, there are deficiencies in fuel vehicles, otherwise new energy vehicles will not have such a high penetration rate, and trams naturally have shortcomings, otherwise there will still be many fans of fuel vehicles. Of course, the above situation exists in almost all classes of gasoline cars and trams, but it will be more prominent in the 200,000-class car market, why? Because the 200,000-level sedan is a state of more than one travel and less luxury, consumers will not pay for a single attribute, and if they want to be recognized, quality, power, space, configuration, and car maintenance cost are indispensable.
Therefore, in this difference, whether consumers choose oil vehicles or trams, they are rational choices. Looking to the future, whether to stick to the fuel market or focus on pure electric vehicles is not a question that consumers are concerned about, but from the perspective of users, what they want is a product that can integrate the respective advantages of fuel vehicles and pure electric vehicles. On this point, the answer given by Dongfeng Motor Group is a new mainstream technology electric brand eπ. How does Dongfeng eπ integrate the respective advantages of oil vehicles and electric vehicles? The first time the eπ brand was released was at the Shanghai International Auto Show on April 18 this year, Dongfeng launched the 1258 "e-Qi" plan, and launched a new electric series brand eπ, opening a new chapter in the transformation and development of electrification. The naming of the "eπ" brand is endowed with rich connotations, in which "e" stands for electric, energy, and exploration, and "π" is the well-known pi, which is an infinite non-cyclic mouse, representing the exploration of infinite possibilities.
At the 200,000 level, what is the simplest and most straightforward advantage of fuel vehicles? As we mentioned earlier, there is no endurance anxiety and low temperature resistance, in response to this, the eπ brand has come up with Mach E power and Dongfeng quantum architecture. Mach E power includes a new generation of ultra-high-set, high-efficiency low-carbon power system, the most advanced 10-in-1 electric drive assembly will have a comprehensive efficiency of 89.1%, and an industry-leading mass-produced solid-state battery, in addition to bringing excellent conventional range, it is said that the low-temperature range has also been increased by 30%. Dongfeng quantum architecture also contains a large number of industry-leading technical reserves, involving electric drive, battery safety, power, chassis tuning and vehicle energy consumption level, etc., including in-wheel motor technology and vehicle 800V platform, the former can give the vehicle a more flexible power layout, and the latter can greatly improve the energy replenishment speed of eπ brand models in the future, and even have the possibility of approaching oil vehicles.
In today's automobile market, intelligent performance is also the key to unavoidable, and there is even a tendency to become the core "large item" of the car. In this regard, eπ will be equipped with a new generation of digital, intelligent driving fun intelligent cockpit. One of the highlights is also worth looking forward to is the SOA central integrated electronic architecture, if it is put into the 200,000 price range, this will be the only configuration in the same class, and the cockpit scene supports a high degree of customization, as well as a voice control system with fast response speed, if you look at the birth time of the brand, eπ is a latecomer, the advantage is that it can respond to future development with a more forward-looking attitude, such as the 800V platform we see, SOA central integrated electronic architecture, in-wheel motors, solid-state batteries, Ultra-highly integrated electric drives, etc., are hot technologies with future potential in the new energy vehicle market, and eπ has mastered these as soon as it debuted. There is also a point that cannot be ignored, that is, in the 200,000-level market, especially sedan users, have relatively conservative characteristics, and the brand image they value when choosing a car does not have to be high-end and fashionable, but it must be reliable and stable. In this regard, the Dongfeng eπ brand can be backed by the Dongfeng brand endorsement, which is an advantage that many new brands cannot have. As one of the world's top 500 central enterprises, Dongfeng Motor has 54 years of car-making accumulation, during which it has won the trust of more than 60 million customers, so Dongfeng Motor has always had a mature, stable, reliable and long-standing image in the hearts of users, combined with the scientific and technological attributes and intelligent technology of the eπ brand itself, this combination of reliability and avant-garde is actually rare in the 200,000-level market, and the attraction of traditional users is worth looking forward to. Therefore, in the professor's view, eπ not only combines the advantages of gasoline vehicles and trams, but also combines the advantages of tradition and the future. Talking about the upcoming eπ007 back to the beginning of the question - "200,000 to buy a fuel car or a tram", the most direct answer given by Dongfeng executives is actually the first sedan of the eπ brand - eπ007.
Some time ago, eπ officially announced the official picture of the car, from the picture, it is not difficult to feel that the car has a very strong avant-garde technological style, smooth body lines, low-lying attitude, with sharp and narrow headlight groups, very scientific and technological sports style.
At present, the dimensions of the car have also been announced, the length, width and height are 4880×1895×1460mm, the wheelbase is 2915mm, the aspect ratio has reached 1.3, and the side can also see the hidden door handles, frameless doors and slip-back design, the size of this car is still very stable.
And it is said that the car is expected to be equipped with electric scissor doors, and the professor personally speculates that it should be more exclusive to the top model or the special edition model. In addition, according to the information released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, eπ007 will also provide rear wing and logo color for consumers to choose, scissor door + original rear wing, handsome effect and return rate must be full.
eπ007 was born from the Dongfeng quantum architecture we mentioned earlier, using Dongfeng Mach E power battery management technology, the power will also be equipped with Mach E power system, you can choose 160kW or 200kW electric drive assembly, the first to launch or will be a pure electric model, the follow-up will most likely launch a four-wheel drive version and an extended range version. The SOA intelligent fun cockpit we mentioned earlier, the panoramic sound music system will not be absent, and there will also be a low-e double-layer coated panoramic canopy that can block 100% ultraviolet rays, since it is named "007", then the technology and hard work must be arranged in place for consumers. Finally: another key point is the vehicle 800V platform, eπ007 is equipped with no exact news, if the car can be equipped with 800V platform, but also to achieve a price of about 200,000, that really has the potential to "kill". The mystery will not be kept secret for too long, on November 10th, the eπ brand will hold a press conference, at which time eπ007 will make its world debut, the professor squats with everyone to see if in the face of the problem of "200,000 budget, which faction to choose for oil cars and trams", eπ007 can provide "reasons that cannot be refused", so that everyone can choose eπ.
