A luxury electric car should have what kind of quality, Mercedes-Benz opened EQC know

Author: little magic

In June, Mercedes-Benz Japan-China science and technology, we will be introducing domestic first-Benz pure electric vehicles already have some of this station understand, at the time of the vehicle in terms of shape and parameters, to be honest in electric vehicles in the army, EQC did not bring too many surprises.

However, some car experience to get started if you do not really do not know, for the inventor of the car in the end create a kind of luxury electric vehicles, which in recent years with the rise of those pure electric car branding of products there much difference, after its two-day test drive experience, we have found the answer, and I just want to say this electric SUV: EQC open up is so delicious!

styling and fuel cars are similar, but there are electric cars exclusive elements

Perhaps because EQC (parameters | Picture) Mercedes-Benz is the first model EQ series, Mercedes-Benz in the design of this car or presents a conservative state, it does not want the car user to treat other brands of electric cars, just think of it as an electric toy, but a genuine Mercedes-Benz cars. So the whole shape of the car and did not get rid of the shadow fuel vehicles, and fuel version of the GLC (parameter | pictures) very high similarity.

The front face EQC is not used by most electric vehicles closed grille design, it is still a classic headlights and grille design retains the traditional elements of the Mercedes-Benz brand and gas field, while the non-enclosed vehicles grill can better help dissipate heat. To highlight the electric vehicle and the identity of EQ family models, above the grille with the through LED lights, headlights on both sides and is integral with the lamp.

electric SUV line design is very sleek, with plenty of surface elements make the car look not only full but also very powerful. EQC the domestic Benz vehicle size is consistent with the overseas edition, still 4761/1884 / 1623mm, wheelbase 2873mm.

through the rear tail lights and headlights using modeling echoes, and the entire tail shape is also rounded. Chrome bumper downward widening the visual width of the rear. Mercedes-Benz logo on the tailgate opening switch hides the folded luggage compartment.

After the right vehicle side and the lower right corner of the fenders disposed rear fast charge and slow charge port of the vehicle, respectively, to support the maximum current 7.4kW and 90kW of fast charge slow charge exchange, the former is fully charged may be from 10 percent to 80 percentage in 40 minutes, which is charged with about 12 hours.

a continuation of the Mercedes-Benz luxury ambience, the operation is more familiar with the

EQC domestic interior design still retains a sense of luxury Mercedes-Benz brand, but also our interior layout Mercedes-Benz familiar layout, and not because it is an electric car has undergone enormous changes, the operation is very easy to get started. Materials used in the car while reducing the leather material, but selection is still elegant, new dashboard not only environmentally friendly material is also easier to clean, inside the cockpit overall texture is very good.

Although this double 10.25 inches of double screen in the shape of the Mercedes-Benz fuel version of the model is no different, but its onboard MBUX intelligent interactive system has been based on electric vehiclesRelated functions were optimized. In the control panel includes a vehicle control, navigation, music, radio stations, shops and other conventional features, support CarPlay and Carlife smartphone Internet services.

support a variety of touch screen in the control mode of operation, in addition to conventional touch operation, also supports voice, touch buttons on the right side of the steering wheel, and the center console below the touchpad. However, in actual use, the feeling of personal control panel in addition to the direct operation with a finger, the other mode of operation is not useful, it would be a common problem inherited the Mercedes.

touch key on the console touch panel and steering wheel when it is not working spirit, through the “Hello, Benz” wake-speech system, understanding the semantic optimization is not in place, some basic control functions completely unable to follow the instructions, Mercedes-Benz hopes the future will be to upgrade the system, do not let these features originally provided to simplify the operation of the vehicle becomes tasteless.

crystal dashboard information display is very rich, and offers three theme style

MBUX car system designed options for the number of electric vehicles to join the EQ options within the integrated energy, power, energy flow, search for charging stations

for the moment the problem of insufficient battery life of electric vehicles, Mercedes-Benz We are also working to provide optimized solutions for the owners. For example, optimized specifically for the Chinese market navigation systems, it provides a quite useful function –EV optimal path planning function. This feature will provide more intelligent route planning and charging options based on real-time information for the owners of energy, traffic and usage charging stations and so on. Owners can also be set freely open to the lowest level when each destination requirements, thereby minimizing range anxiety.

Mercedes-Benz offers for the EQC “star assistant” is also a very convenient and practical parking service charge, as long as the use of the Mercedes-Benz star and the Friends of Hui App appointments, reaching parking lot after the car driver will have exclusive access to provide services. The service is now in Beijing Daxing International Airport opened, the future will open in more cities hot spots and landmarks in the region.

space in general, but the front seat comfort is very good

As the EQC is not born out of pure self-electric platform, which also makes this a pure electric SUV 2873mm wheelbase did not show the electric car it should have space superiority.

178cm height tester after sitting in the driver seat and adjusted to the appropriate position, can see the head space is quite ample, from the basic three punches. Supportive front seats and comfort performance is very good, thick neck headrest to have good support, and the legs are also equipped with adjustable leg rest.

but the rear of the vehicle performance can be said at this level models can only be considered general. Front row position remains unchanged, when testers sit in the back row, their fists in the head space is less than the distance, knee and only a little more punch, is not very abundant. And the rear seat back angle is relatively straight, take a long time is not comfortable, the raised rear center of the floor, but also the comfort to play a certain discount. But fortunately there are rear support temperature and air volume control of the air conditioning vent and a separate USB interface, so that rear passengers will not be too lost.

by fairly regular trunk portion, 500L provide loading capacity, but also further extended to 1460 liters

of pure electric vehicles blessing in performance, fuel prefer riding comfort of the car

with the same Overseas EQC, EQC are made longitudinal axis of each one equipped with induction motors, both motors have different division, using the axle motor at low speed with more attention to efficiency and economy, and is more focused on the rear axle motor power, to provide more torque.

The total electric power system SUV power 300kW, integrated torque is reached 730Nm, so that medium-SUV can only 5.1 seconds to accelerate from zero to 100km / h , the maximum speed can reach 180km / h, for this size SUV is already a great performance.

of the longitudinal axis can provide timely four-wheel drive, although for the occupants concerned, and can not detect the drive system of instantaneous switching, but the intelligent four-wheel drive vehicle can help to optimize for longer battery life and reasonable mileage. In most cases the vehicles are using precursor to reduce energy consumption, when sudden acceleration or slippery floor, the motor will start promptly, were driving four-wheel drive, of course, there will be some special cases the vehicle is rear-wheel drive traveling .

EQC acceleration performance not only spike the most fuel vehicles, especially in the test drive in a personal sense of power output tuning this car also belong to pure “Benz” style, unlike other electric cars start feeling special thief, EQC acceleration is very smooth and fast, even in sport mode, it will not give the kind of very unexpected sense of acceleration, speed is unknowingly brought up.

Benz provides lower sensitivity personalized pedal switches, movement, comfort and energy saving four modes, the latter three modes to vary this electric car, but also corresponding to different power output. Maximum motion pattern, most responsive pedal switches, the output power at this time is straightforward and fast reaction is also accelerated, while energy-saving mode, by definition the reaction will be relatively slow. As for the next personalization mode, the owner can steering, power output, ESP be set independently, rich driving needs.

EQC with three block kinetic energy recovery, primarily switched by shift paddles on the steering wheel. Wherein the D + kinetic energy recovery mode will be completely closed, so that the vehicle is free-running state in which the brake must rely entirely on the mechanical brake.

As the strongest D- mode, personally like to use, it can not only recover more energy, as said before Mercedes-Benz wants to provide more texture to drive this car, so driving fuel vehicles people open this electric car will not have a strong suited. Thus, while there is obviously a sense of pattern D- slowdown, but not the kind of strong drag, so open this car unlike other electric cars to take extra time to adapt to anything.

can be said that the dynamic performance of the vehicle gave me the feeling is still the Mercedes-Benz really looks like, rapid acceleration performance is not crazy, suspension tuning rather texture, can filter out all the fine on the road bumps encountered when hanging big jolt performed very simply, quickly spring back into place not waste motion, and will provide adequate support for the body in the corners, so this action is very agile SUV.

As for NVH, performance can say it better than most electric cars. Mercedes-Benz engineers to reduce vehicle noise by a variety of measures. EQC sub-frame, the use of two damping system between the motor and the vehicle body structure: a rubber damper between the frame and the sub-motor system using a hydraulic shock absorber between the vehicle body and the sub-frame, high-frequency noise isolation , as well as the front windshield and front side windshield have adopted better sound insulation of special material, so that the EQC quiet performance comparable to the S-class (parameter | pictures).

battery and vehicle safety remains the highest quality Mercedes-Benz

aspects of battery, domestic battery EQC dress up Ningde era, a total of four modules 384 batteries, providing power 79.2kWh, Overseas reduced a little compared to the NEDC life currently a maximum of 415km, compared to competitors like Audi and Tesla’s battery life is lower.

But this test drive, the personal feeling EQC’s overall battery life performance is still very good, especially in this part of the table and the actual use of significant mileage difference is very small. Test drive, we have security in the parking lot of male New Area is an electric vehicle charging, when instrument display driving range of 215 kilometers. Thereafter, upon reaching the first transfer point, full speed road, air conditioning and I have been driving the vehicle set in Sport mode, the vehicle speed is maintained at about 120km / h. When

reaches the rest stop, the table also show significant travelable distance of 153 km, and this is the actual travel distance 60 km, 2 km more than just the actual mileage. EQC visibility meter display accuracy is very high, no vacuity.

aspects of security, this electric car in the development of Mercedes-Benz has always maintained a strict high standards, especially for vulnerable batteryGroup, EQC surrounded with a solid frame crash unitary structure, the framework can absorb energy. Additional energy absorbing deformation element is mounted between the frame and the battery, and these elements can suffer serious side collision of the vehicle. Battery hood front region of the battery can be prevented from being pierced foreign matter.

test in a collision, the front surface 40 EQC percentage offset collision to 64km / h speed head-on collision accepted, non-destructive still maintain the windshield, the car to ensure passengers have a high enough security.

before you actually drive to EQC, EQC personal feeling should be a mediocre vehicle does not have too many surprises. But then the real driving off, felt Benz treat this electric car attitude. Although this electric car is Mercedes-Benz’s first product, but if you put aside power is concerned, it really still is a pure Mercedes-Benz cars, this car can bring a sense of luxury and quality feel doubt, so the plan to buy electric Mercedes-Benz people need not worry because it is electric, it will compromise on quality.

Therefore, for consumer users of high-end electric car, if you just want a electric toys, electric car experience those innovative ideas and features that may experience a sense of pure electric cars like Tesla in this area stronger. But if you still need is a high-quality, high ride quality of the car, but it happens in the power system is electric, it is clear or “car inventor” more experienced in this area.
