In fact, I quite admire courage Xiaopeng repairer, not only is the first mass production car G3 sales, they also made the second paragraph of car, choose a car, or a mid-size sedan, but a mid-sized electric car. Just cars that are for the consumer groups, car mentality of consumers in the most traditional.
natural environment very challenging car market, but as one of the new forces repairer, I think Xiaopeng No matter what kind of car making, we should face the same challenge, or take a look at the new car product information right. New car named P7, the factory arranged a small area to see the new car ahead of events, I found Xiaopeng does have some new thinking into the car in. Interested, you can then look down, see these reflections Xiaopeng, can move you to continue to pay attention to it.
anchored precisely Tesla Model 3
Tesla has not been a big success, but definitely put it on a modicum of success in the field of electric vehicles, Tesla is considered a mountain, new forces are to build cars in China, even more so . Although the mountain cross in front, in fact, can also be leveraging.
Xiaopeng P7 is a car length 4.9 m cars, the size of Bitesila Model 3 is bigger, revealed the current price range may be in the 25-30 million worth of inter, but because this market segment and no more cars, if P7 give people the first impression. “this is like a Model 3 but cheaper electric car”, for Xiaopeng, it is a successful start.
From the point of view Xiaopeng launched P7 there may be many reasons, I think, the anchor Model 3 should have more reason to be considered a viable market.
“cheap” is not a panacea
Of course, as a brand new forces, even in the face Model 3, in automotive engineering, it is already quite highly set a goal, because only than Model 3 is cheap enough.
to P7 factory where the new platform, named SEPA intelligent electric platform (Smart Electric Platform Architecture). The arrangement, of course, is fully consider the layout of the core assembly of the battery compartment, there are 4.9 meters long car wheelbase of 3 meters, electric cars really better layout was achieved. P7 also used steel and aluminum hybrid vehicle body structure, according to engineer say, it can be done in the C-NCAP five-star rating.
Chassis, the suspension specifications pricey, double-wishbone front, multi-link independent suspension, and the continuous active damping control system (the CDC), the top version is further provided a on the brakes to Brembo four-piston, the set-ups, saying that Germany got the engineering team to help.
autopilot technology definitely has now become a significant automotive technical indicators. P7 Xiaopeng on the new architecture, it is introduced, the data transfer speed will be used NVIDIA DRIVE Xavier autopilot chip, the faster the new structure (Xiaopeng data are given is 200 times higher than can conventional CAN bus), the final achievement, P7 will have the ability to support L3 level autopilot. Of course, I believe that when a mass production, P7 should not have L3 level autopilot function, rely on a subsequent OTA upgrade.
emotion of new technologies sublimation
in front of said new architecture, the processor calculates P7 should make faster, faster data transmission, but also can be processed simultaneously things more. In fact, this is often referred to, the general logic of development of intelligent vehicles.
so down the technical ideas to think about it, might actually no surprise at all, Xiaopeng Internet engineering team, shared their research and development of a new way of thinking P7 with us.
They believe that users care about results, not the process of implementation, technical assistance should reach all kinds of intelligent interaction, it is best to achieve the “forgotten user process.” In other words, P7 was created to those new features, and will be less need for the user to confirm the operational aspects, while trying to find more understanding with the user. Principle Logic says it is still better to understand, but we are more concerned about the inevitable result – P7 what function can be realized when the sale.
have said features, will include:
[ 123]
- perception of the environment, or the identification of the user, providing different cars wake-up feature and UI image.
to simplify the process of dialogue voice control, or that more people like to say the words, but also through the dual-screen display can be interactive operation
with the Dynaudio sound system, intelligent scene atmosphere of light, they also mention a “musical cockpit” concept, even in the driver’s seat head restraints are embedded speaker, I would think that might be more than the so-called “smart cockpit” like the concept, more straightforward to impress people (think of those HiFi music phone).
There are a variety of applications, in addition Xiaopeng own, as well as Ali applets, as well as smart home Internet (and see how to achieve it).
more than logical thinking, can be said to bring the emotional sublimation through new technologies, in fact, inside and outside of P7 design has a similar idea. P7 inspired shape of said element from Star Wars, many details of the process by further realized drag coefficient of 0.236. Made frameless doors, low-emissivity glass and do not need roof insulation shielding, and it is based on a similar idea, to render an atmosphere, an atmosphere or technology, or the young avant-garde atmosphere.
through the interior of one large screen by a 10.25 inchesLCD meter, 14.97 inches and a touch-screens, the actual perception or refined enough. The overall atmosphere of the cabin, can sit in feel than the original product Xiaopeng obviously on a higher level.
Not published really are Xiaopeng interior P7
[ 123] performance
Finally talk about electric vehicles as performance. Several published factory with high data:
1, P7 with dual four-wheel drive motor, power close to the integrated peak 450 hp, 0-100km / h acceleration data light generalities about –4 seconds.
2. Use Ningde age NCM811 batteries, the NEDC mileage than 600 kilometers.
3,28 min percentage from 30 to 80 percentage of charging power.
4, of course, when listed, P7 should also provide cheaper low motor life or a single version or the like.
was poured emotional R & D products is to praise, but in the end have to return to reality if the money to buy. So, more than a new car this Xiaopeng P7, it will be sold for what price? You can talk about their own speculation.
