On May 13, the new Mocha Hi4 of the Wei brand, which is positioned as a five-seater flagship SUV, was officially launched, with a guide price of 238,800 yuan. The new car continues the design of the current model, equipped with the Hi4 intelligent electric hybrid all-wheel drive system, and the CLTC pure electric range can reach 200km. Before June 30, you can enjoy 5,000 yuan to deduct the balance of 10,000 yuan for car purchase, 10,000 yuan replacement subsidy (30,000 yuan for Wei brand car owners) and up to 10,000 yuan of national trade-in subsidy, with a minimum price of 213,800 yuan.
From the name of the car, you can feel that the changes of the new Mocha Hi4 are mainly in terms of power, the new Mocha Hi4 performance version adopts three power sources and two axes, and realizes the electric hybrid architecture of series and parallel four-wheel drive through the distributed arrangement of dual motors; The first-of-its-kind iTVC intelligent torque vectoring control system effectively suppresses skidding on low-adhesion roads, understeer or oversteer when cornering through millisecond torque adjustment. The innovative design of the four-speed electromechanical coupling unit of the Hi4 Performance Edition can also cover the working conditions of the engine direct drive near the full speed range.
The new Mocha Hi4 is more powerful, with a 1.5T high-thermal efficiency engine, an 80kW highly integrated four-speed gearbox, a 150kW high-performance electric rear drive axle, a CATL 35.04kWh high-energy-density battery pack, and a newly upgraded electronic control system.
The new Mocha Hi4 dual-motor dual-shaft drive accelerates to 4.7s per 100 kilometers and has a maximum climbing angle of 70%. With a golden ratio axle load distribution of nearly 50:50 and a torque distribution of 100:0-0:100 on the front and rear axles, the iTVC system can provide millisecond-level road feedback, effectively suppressing low-adhesion road slippage in extreme conditions such as snow, ice, rain and slippery roads, so that the driver is not easy to slide sideways or lose control.
In terms of energy consumption, the new Mocha Hi4WLTC has a fuel consumption of 5.95L per 100 km, a combined fuel consumption of 0.8L per 100 km, and a power consumption of 20.1kWh per 100 km. It can be called the most economical four-wheel drive, comparable to the energy consumption of two-wheel drive at the same level.
In terms of battery life, the new Mocha Hi4 has a CLTC 200km pure electric range, and users only need to charge it once a week for a daily commute of 30-40 km. Fast charging with 30%-80% battery and fast charging takes only 26 minutes.
In addition, the new Mocha Hi4 has three power modes of "intelligent hybrid + pure electric priority + pure electric", plus a four-wheel drive system to meet the different driving needs of users. The new Mocha Hi4 also has a maximum external discharge function of 3.3kW, which can meet the continuous use of 2kW induction cooker for 11 hours, which is convenient for outdoor camping.
In terms of appearance, the new Mocha Hi4 is based on the design language of "natural new environment aesthetics", through the double-layer structure of the front face and a slightly sleek body posture, creating an elegant and dynamic design experience. In terms of dimensions, the length, width and height of the new Mocha Hi4 are 4881/1960/1690mm, respectively, and the wheelbase is 2915mm.
Inside, the cabin layout of the new Mocha Hi4 has not been significantly changed. The narrow LCD instrument panel with a large central control screen and lower control screen creates a modern technological look, which is in line with its identity positioning as a new energy model. The new Mocha Hi4 is equipped with the updated Coffee OS 2. At the same time, based on iFLYTEK's voice assistant, the new car can support 2 minutes of unlimited voice commands, coupled with HUD head-up display, 50w wireless charging slot and other configurations, which can also improve the convenience of the vehicle during use.
In terms of intelligent driving assistance, the new Mocha Hi4 is equipped with 22 perception units, with 360° panoramic perception capabilities, and a perception system composed of 5 millimeter-wave radars + 12 ultrasonic radars + 1 ADAS camera + 4 million-pixel surround view cameras. At the same time, it is also equipped with HWA highway driving assistance and NOH high-speed intelligent navigation assistance.
The new Mocha Hi4 continues WEY brand's ultimate pursuit of safety, and the body-in-white is designed based on the Sino-European double five-star safety standard, with high-strength steel accounting for 80.41% (including anti-collision beams), and the maximum strength of hot-stamping steel is 2000Mpa.
In terms of battery safety, the CATL battery pack equipped with the new Mocha Hi4 adopts multiple battery safety protection, and is equipped with IP67 waterproof long-term immersion and double protection technology for various potential risks such as high temperature, low temperature, and impact, and has passed safety tests such as immersion, temperature shock, drop, acupuncture, fire, and thermal runaway.
In terms of active safety, the new Mocha Hi4 is equipped with 30+ active configurations, including AEB emergency braking (the effective working speed range is not officially indicated) and FCW front collision warning.
Write at the end
In general, the new Mocha Hi4 has not been adjusted in the exterior and interior, with the addition of the Hi4 powertrain, which is also more urban positioning, but can also be used for outing and light off-roading. The new Mocha Hi4 relies on an all-new hybrid all-wheel drive system that offers the driver a choice of multiple driving and powertrain modes. Pure electric two-wheel drive, pure electric four-wheel drive, engine series, petrol-electric parallel, etc., cover almost all scenarios of daily driving. In the face of the increasingly fierce competition in the new energy vehicle market, Mocha Hi4 has prepared a full range of product capabilities for consumers. We have reason to believe that in the near future, this mid-size pure electric SUV star from the WEY brand will definitely make waves in the market segment.
