Text: Understand the original Car Emperor Pan Zichun
As the first batch of models launched by the new car manufacturing forces, Xiaopeng G3 did not seem to stir up much splash at the beginning of its advent, and subsequently, Xiaopeng successively launched p7 and p5 two car products, which gained a wave of heat and market recognition, and it was also time to improve and upgrade SUV products.
Today, Xiaopeng has launched the first mid-term redesign of the smart SUV, the G3i, with a price range of 149,800-185,800 yuan after comprehensive subsidies, which is specifically divided into 4 models of 460g, 460n, 520g and 520n. Whether it is the appearance adjustment or the intelligent configuration upgrade, g3i has targeted the young audience this time.
So, what configurations should young people's preferred smart SUVs have? Before xiaopeng automobile chairman and CEO He Xiaopeng's most recommended g3 smart version, put on the g3i is still good?
Compared with the current g3, the Xiaopeng g3i has obvious adjustments in appearance, replacing the x robot face family front face, adopting the same family design language as p7 and p5, and equipped with a newly designed through-type headlight. From the appearance level, it strengthens the youthful and technological attributes.
In addition, Xiaopeng g3i has added five new colors: azure green, light yue blue, nebula white, yue dong red, and cold gray. At the same time, new NBA exclusive custom colors, as well as 50 kinds of official body color films for users to choose.
In terms of size, the new car has a length, width and height of 4495/1820/1610 mm and a wheelbase of 2625 mm.
Coming to the car, you can see that the overall shape of xiaopeng g3i has not changed much, and it will continue the layout of the current vertical central control display with full LCD instrument. What is special is that the new car is different from the design styles such as red and black commonly used in traditional models, and adopts the interior design of blue and white contrast.
At present, the interior space of xiaopeng g3i remains basically unchanged compared with the current g3, and from the actual experience, the overall space size is not excellent. Compared with the front row, the rear space of the new car is slightly inferior.
The experiencer is 178 cm tall
In terms of power, the Xiaopeng g3i has a comprehensive cruising range of up to 520km under NEDC conditions. The detailed power parameters are consistent with the current Xiaopeng G3: the front motor with a maximum power of 145 kW and a peak torque of 300 Nm.
As far as the four versions of the Xiaopeng G3i model naming are concerned, the configuration difference can be basically seen more clearly. The "460" and "520" represent the cruising range of the vehicle under NEDC conditions, of which the 460g version is equipped with lithium iron phosphate batteries, and the other three versions use ternary lithium batteries.
The main difference between "n" and "g" is whether it is equipped with the xpilot driving intelligent driving system, the xpilot parking intelligent parking system, and the xpilot safety active safety configuration. In addition, the n version of the model is also equipped with:
Remote control camera (360 degree panorama)
X-robot face through led daily running lamp design, intelligent LED lamp language
Horizon themed interior (blue and white interior + light gray roof)
Front/rear head airbags (air curtains)
Front parking radar/side parking radar
Main driver msb electric seat belt (with collision warning)
Auto-dimming inner rearview mirror
Mobile phone wireless charging (support 15w fast charging)
Heating of the driver's seat and passenger seat
In addition, Xiaopeng Motors provides a "leapfrog comfort package" for owners to choose from in the 520n version, which includes: ventilated main seat, nappa + high-quality leather seat, external rearview mirror with memory function, suede roof, 4-way waist rest for the main driver, and heated rear seats.
In terms of appearance, users of the four versions of the model can also spend an additional 3,000 yuan to install "Yue Dong Red + Cool Black Top", "Light Joy Blue + Cool Black Top", "Azure Green + Ying White Top", and replace 18-inch tires.
460g
Price after comprehensive subsidy: 149,800 yuan
Recommendation Rating: ★★
Recommended reason: The battery life performance is acceptable, there is no eye-catching configuration
As the entry-level model of the whole series, the main hardware difference between the 460g and other configuration models is the battery pack and mileage. However, the car's comprehensive cruising range of 460 km under NEDC conditions can also meet the needs of daily use.
In terms of configuration, the 460g is equipped with a 1.889 square meter panoramic front windshield, self-sensing full LED headlights, integrated diamond matrix LED taillights (with streamer steering effect), LED high brake lights and rear fog lights, alloy wheels and 17-inch tires.
At the level of intelligent functions, the 460g is equipped with ccs cruise and reversing image with parking auxiliary line, and is equipped with xmart os on-board intelligent system and basic functions such as infotainment and ai intelligence.
Although the smart function seems to be comprehensive, as the minimum 460g neither xpiliter driving intelligent driving system nor xpililot parking intelligent parking system, nor x-robot face through led daytime running light design and intelligent LED light language. You know, the latter is the biggest highlight of this G3 upgrade.
It can be said that the more practical significance of the 460g version is to pull the price range of the G3i down to less than 150,000 yuan, but it has lost the "soul" of Xiaopeng Motors. In the same price range, there may be a more cost-effective option.
460n
Price after comprehensive subsidy: 172,800 yuan
Recommendation Rating: ★★★★
Recommended reason: battery life is enough, intelligent configuration is comprehensive, and the cost performance is the highest
Compared with the lowest 460g model, the 460n maintains sufficient endurance, but it is equipped with the xplot driving intelligent driving system and the xpilot parking intelligent parking system.
That is to say, with an additional 23,000 yuan, you can have the ACC adaptive cruise system (with stop &go automatic stop start function), LCC lane center assist system, alc automatic lane change assist, ASL automatic speed limit adjustment, atc adaptive corner cruise.
In terms of parking, the 460n also supports visual + ultrasonic environmental perception parking solution, super automatic parking assistance system (with multi-parking space selection and memory), voice control parking assistance, automatic parking assistance, vehicle summoning (rvs), mobile phone parking assistance, remote key parking assistance, 360° panoramic visual parking assistance system, and equipped with remote control camera (360 degree panorama).
Overall, the 460n version of the model equipped with autonomous driving capabilities has almost all the room for growth of Xiaopeng Automobile's software capabilities. For young people, the 460n can focus more on the performance of intelligent technology, and it is relatively more able to meet the needs of daily driving.
520g
Price after comprehensive subsidy: 165,800 yuan
Recommended reason: Compared with the minimum version, the improvement is not large, and the battery life increase is limited
In addition to the 60 km increase in endurance, the 520g version of the model is almost exactly the same as the 460g in terms of configuration, but the price is 16,000 yuan higher. From the perspective of daily commuting of electric vehicle users, the endurance of 460 kilometers is completely enough, and it is not meaningful to pay some additional costs.
520n
Price after comprehensive subsidy: 185,800 yuan
Recommendation Rating: ★★★
Recommended reason: the price is high, but it can balance comfort and intelligence
As the top model, the 520n includes almost all the configurations that Xiaopeng currently offers. But look closely, in addition to the intelligent functions on the 460n, although the price of the 520n is 13,000 yuan higher, the improvement is very limited: the endurance increases by 60 kilometers, and it can optionally include: the main driving seat ventilation, nappa + high-quality leather seat, the memory function of the exterior mirror, the suede roof, the main driver 4-way waist rest, the rear seat heating and other configurations of the "leapfrog comfort package".
More importantly, the price of the 520n version has approached the range of 200,000 yuan.
After a detailed comparison, we found that, as He Xiaopeng recommended when he was listed on the G3 before, the Medium Version model has the highest cost performance. Only by adding about 20,000 yuan on the basis of the minimum version, you can add nearly 40 more technology, safety and convenience configurations, and the mileage level can basically say goodbye to mileage anxiety.
Such configuration differences can maximize the curiosity of the younger generation for new features and new technologies. In contrast, the highest-end model is 13,000 yuan more expensive, but the improvement is very limited. In addition to the 60 km range, there are 5 more configurations that focus on improving comfort, and additional money is needed to optionally be added.
Nowadays, consumers are becoming more and more rational, and practicality and cost performance are the primary considerations when buying a car. After the comparison of the four models, the cost performance is high. Since Xiaopeng's boss He Xiaopeng recommends buying it, Xiaopeng g3i chooses the 460n version to specify no problem.
