The great wall gun became popular! Known as the benchmark in pickup trucks, it sold 160,000 sets with ZF 8AT.

The Great Wall has developed rapidly in recent years. Haval focuses on the home SUV market, WEY focuses on high-end SUVs, while the first love, big dog, mocha (parameter picture) and other models complement the SUV segmentation field. I’m afraid there is no manufacturer in China who is more obsessed with building SUVs than Great Wall. No wonder the brand has the confidence to claim to be the leader of domestic SUVs. In 2020, the Great Wall sold a total of 1,111,598 cars, an increase of 4.84% over the same period. Faced with the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, enterprises grew against the trend, with operating income reaching 103.283 billion yuan and net profit reaching 5.392 billion yuan, both of which achieved year-on-year growth, especially in 2020, when automobile manufacturers were generally sad.

The three technology brands of Lemon, Tank and Coffee Intelligence were also officially released last year. It can be seen that the Great Wall hopes to cover consumers’ needs in SUV and commercial vehicles more comprehensively. The 2020 Great Wall Cannon is the great wall’s ambitious work in the field of pickup trucks. Although there are already Fengjun series of pearls and jade in the front, the market segment has been tepid due to the policy that pickup trucks are forbidden to enter the city. The launch of this Great Wall Cannon shows the determination of Great Wall to start the pickup truck brand. From January to September in 2020, the sales volume of the Great Wall Gun reached 160,351 units, ranking first in the market segment.

In terms of appearance, the front face of the Great Wall Gun looks round and full, which is in line with the momentum that a pickup truck should have. The quadrilateral air intake grille is magnificent and powerful, and there are large pieces of silver chrome-plated strips wrapped inside and on the edge, which is consistent with the temperament of the whole vehicle. In the configuration of far and near lights and daytime running lights, all the Great Wall guns are made of LED materials, and all the Changan Kaicheng F70 at the same level are halogen lamps. It should be obvious who is more kind. The length, width and height of the new car are (mm)5437/1958/1893, and the wheelbase is 3230mm. The car side lines are relatively smooth, and the surface is more natural. Keyless entry and keyless start in the front row are standard, which is commendable.

The wheel hub specification is 265/65 R18, and the tire comfort performance is good, which is suitable for road driving. The tailgate style is more conventional, but the straight lines are slightly boring. The taillights are also LED light sources, and the effect after lighting at night is quite outstanding. The floor of the container is equipped with container treasure, which can prevent wear and corrosion. The combination of the container frame and the tailgate pneumatic lever allows users to easily put down the tailgate, which is rare in the same class and greatly improves the convenience.

Entering the interior of the Great Wall Gun, it is difficult for you to associate it with a pickup truck, because the interior is no different from a general passenger car, more like an SUV, with a symmetrical layout and a large four-spoke steering wheel. At first glance, it is for male drivers, and both sides are integrated with functional buttons such as multimedia control and cruising. The 9-inch central control LCD screen is embedded, and the addition of 360 panoramic images can significantly improve the convenience of parking. The center console is covered with a large area of soft materials and leather, which feels quite good. The real shot model is red, but personally, it feels more advanced with black and brown.

In the power part, the gun adopts a 2.0T gasoline engine independently developed by Great Wall and code-named GW4C20B, with a maximum power of 190 HP and a peak torque of 360 Nm. Automatic transmission models are matched with 8AT gearbox from ZF, and the stability and ride comfort have passed the test of the market. The front suspension is a double wishbone single suspension, which focuses on comfort. The four-wheel drive system comes from Borgwarner and is also produced by a big factory. It can switch between three driving modes and is equipped with front and rear differential locks. Configuration parts, such as tire pressure display, front seat belt unfastened reminder, body stability system, cruise control, steep slope descent and other functions are standard equipment.

Conclusion: There is no doubt about the hard power of the Great Wall Gun in the pickup truck field, which is why it can become the benchmark product in the domestic pickup truck field. ZF 8AT, Borgwarner four-wheel drive and Great Wall engine are all genuine configurations, and the fully-used interior is also a bright spot, which can not help but make people feel the illusion of family cars. With the adjustment and relaxation of pickup policies in various places, I believe that the sales performance of this car can reach a new high.

What is the competitiveness of the "big flat layer in the air" polar krypton 009, positioning luxury pure electric MPV?

Car Review Observation "Car Review Society"

In the new energy era, all major car companies have tried their best to lay out the automobile market in depth. As an independent "first brother", Geely has successively launched a number of new energy brands such as Geometry, Maple Leaf, Polar Star and Polar Krypton, among which Polar Krypton is one of its most concerned brands, which can be seen from the hot discussion of Polar Krypton 009 on the Internet.

On November 1st, Kyk 009 was officially launched, and two new models were launched, of which the WE version was priced at 499,000 yuan and the ME version was priced at 588,000 yuan. According to the car review agency, the new car is positioned in the medium and large MPV.Adopt 6-seat layout,The length of the car body is 5209mm and the wheelbase is 3205mm, and there are quite a few bright spots in the sense of design of the whole car and the luxury of the carriage. So what is its product competitiveness? Look down with the car review society.

Let’s first analyze the most distinctive label of Extreme Krypton 009. Compared with competing products such as Tengshi D9 and Lantu Dreamer, Extreme Krypton 009 is an MPV that pays more attention to electric drive, and does not provide extended range or plug-in power options like the first two, which directly refreshes the use concept of MPV. Before, there has always been a media V that MPV is the most suitable vehicle to be combined with pure electric power.

The main advantages are still reflected in the use scenario, including: pure electric power can bring better use cost and more advanced ride experience; Due to the long service time of MPV models, the entertainment functions and external power supply provided by pure electric models are more practical in waiting for people or outdoor scenes; Coupled with the faster acceleration of electric drive at medium and low speeds, the driving experience in pure electric MPV city will be better.

Of course, what needs to be entangled is the cruising range and charging problem, which needs to be weighed according to its own mileage and charging conditions. But we might as well look at the performance of Krypton 009 according to the advantages of pure electric MPV.

In terms of appearance, Extreme Krypton 009 maintains the futuristic design language of pure electric vehicles, and the chrome-plated closed mesh is quite eye-catching, and the whole body contour is mainly square, creating a quite strong gas field. The daytime running lights with the design concept of "light trace" are also unique in shape, and the new car has a strong recognition.

Imagine driving this car to attend some business parties and stopping around Mercedes-Benz S-Class and Erffa, the gas field is still quite inconsistent. More directly, the design of Krypton 009 is more atmospheric and can meet the needs of users for face.

Let’s talk about the space problem that everyone is more concerned about. The length, width and height of the new car are 5209*2024*1856(1867)mm respectively. When air suspension is selected, the car height is 1856 mm. When passive suspension is selected, the car height is 1867mm and the wheelbase is 3205 mm. From the data point of view, it can be regarded as a big car, except for the length of the car body, other data all exceed GL8.

In terms of internal space, under normal conditions, the second/third row space of a new car is still quite spacious. As for Li Xiang’s question about whether the second row can be adjusted to the end and the third row space can meet the comfort of adults, it is still necessary to experience the real car before reaching a conclusion.

What is even more subversive is the functional experience in the car. In the overall style of the interior, Extreme Krypton 009 still continues the family design style, and the main color is mainly white, which is simple and generous, such as the full LCD instrument in the front row, the independent central control large screen, the steering wheel and the electronic gear handle style, which are almost consistent with Extreme Krypton 001.

The focus is on the back row, and the polar krypton 009 adopts a six-seat layout. The new car is equipped with a 15.6-inch central ceiling screen in the second row, with a conference mode, which can meet the needs of business users for teleconferencing and consulting materials on the way. At the same time, this screen also supports the functions of SWITCH game machine access and mobile phone wireless screen projection, which directly meets the entertainment needs of home users.

Looking down, the functionality is somewhat similar to the ideal L9. If you think narrowly, maybe this is also the reason why Li wants to question directly.

In addition, in the specific configuration, the first two rows of seats of Krypton 009 are equipped with headrest audio; On the door panel below the sliding door switch, a touch LCD screen named "Smart Bar" is also provided to control the functions of rear air conditioner, window and sunshade. The second row of seats are equipped with cup holders, seat adjustment buttons and leather table boards; The third row of seats can be completely flat, which improves the flexibility of spatial layout.

In terms of power that everyone is most concerned about, Extreme Krypton 009 is equipped with a four-wheel drive system consisting of two motors, with a peak power of 400kW and a top speed of 190 km/h. In addition, thanks to the technology of containing SiC in the rear motor, the highest efficiency reaches 98.5%, and its 0-100km/h acceleration time is only 4.5s, the only MPV member in the club with 4 seconds.

It is worth mentioning that Krypton 009 is Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited’s latest Kirin battery, which is the first model for global mass production. Kirin battery can increase the energy density of ternary battery system to 255Wh/kg and lithium iron phosphate battery system to 160Wh/kg.

That is to say, under the same chemical system and the same battery pack size, the power of Kirin battery pack is 13% higher than that of 4680 system. In terms of battery life, the comprehensive cruising range of CLTC of WE version with a battery capacity of 116kWh is 702km, while that of CLTC of ME version with a battery capacity of 140kWh is 822km.

In terms of chassis structure, the front suspension of Krypton 009 adopts double wishbone virtual double ball head independent suspension, and the rear suspension adopts integrated multi-link all-aluminum independent suspension. At the same time, Krypton 009 comes standard with automatic air suspension system and +CCD electromagnetic vibration reduction system.

Another good news is that Krypton 009 will be delivered in the first quarter of 2023.

Finally, let’s talk about the sales prospect of Krypton 009. As of 2021, the domestic MPV market has been declining for three consecutive years, but in the segmentation field, pure electric MPV and medium and large high-end MPV have been on the rise. From the direction, Krypton 009 is undoubtedly on the right track.

At the same time, considering the selling price and product strength, the technological configuration brought by the new car is quite subversive to the use experience of traditional fuel MPV. How to make users truly feel the advantages of pure electric MPV will become the key to the hot sale of extremely Krypton 009.

Last year, it made a big profit of 16.6 billion yuan, and BYD, the king of volume, was busy harvesting.

This article was originally published by wumiancaijing.

Editor: Chen Jian

Design: Lansheng

BYD, the king of domestic prices, made a fortune.

In 2022, the company’s revenue and profits rose sharply, including revenue of 424.061 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 96.2%; The net profit attributable to listed companies was 16.622 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 445.86%.

The increase is mainly attributed to the increase in sales of new energy vehicles. Last year, BYD sold 1,863,500 vehicles, making it the world’s top seller of new energy vehicles. This year, Chairman Wang Chuanfu’s goal is to become the largest automobile manufacturer in China.

This means higher sales. In today’s auto market scuffle, BYD continues to attack.

Most car companies "reduce the price and ensure the quantity", while a few protect the price against the price reduction storm. BYD is more of a "price reduction impulse".

In the best mass market,BYD still uses the method of "cost performance", and under the banner of "the same price for oil and electricity", it is crazy to roll up fuel vehicles..

From the champion version of Qin PLUS DM-i 2023 in February to the "increase in allocation and decrease in price" of Han EV champion version and Tang DM-i champion version in March, BYD accelerated to seize the joint venture A-class and B-class markets, which also seemed to indicate that "BYD will accept all the shares below 300,000".

The effect is immediate. In the car sales ranking in February, BYD Qin soared from the 10th place in January to the 1st place in February, with sales increasing by 24.6% year-on-year, while joint venture rivals Sylphy and Xinllavida dropped by 8.5% and 20.4% respectively.

On the other hand, the new forces that are still making huge losses, represented by Wei Xiaoli, focus on the middle and high end, and it is still difficult to reap the dividends of the mass market.

In this accelerated knockout, BYD is ahead again.

Price cuts across the board are all about sales.

After Tesla cut the first knife in the beginning of the year, BYD made moves one after another, and it was not soft at all:

The price of the main sales models has been reduced across the board, covering 100,000-300,000.

The latest is BYD Han EV Champion Edition and Tang DM-i Champion Edition which were listed in March.Both models are "increasing the allocation and reducing the price", and the cost performance is improved, with the price range of 200,000-300,000..

Simple contrast can be seen:

Han EV Champion Edition, the price is 209,800-299,800, and the old jia price is 219,800-290,800; Tang DM-i Champion Edition, the price is 209,800-233,800, and the old model is priced at 209,800-281,800.

BYD’s price reduction is more’ chicken thief’. Unlike other car companies, the existing models follow the price reduction, but new configurations are introduced and new prices are set in the same model.. "An industry insider told ID:wumiancaijing, a researcher in finance and economics.

In terms of color, performance and configuration, Han EV Champion Edition and Tang DM-i Champion Edition have been upgraded.

Among them, the Han EV Champion Edition has added a premium version with a lower price, with a battery life of 506 km and 605 km respectively, and the price is 209,800 yuan and 229,800 yuan respectively.

In addition, the same model with a battery life of 715 kilometers, the price of the Han EV Champion Edition is lowered by 12,000 yuan compared with the 2022 model; The price of the flagship model of the Han EV Champion Edition is also 10,000 yuan cheaper than the old model.

The same technique appeared in the champion version of Qin PLUS DM-i 2023 launched in February, which also improved the configuration compared with the old model, but the average selling price dropped by 16,400 yuan; The price is 99,800-145,800, and the price has dropped to less than 100,000 yuan for the first time.

In addition, in March, BYD Seals and Song PLUS officially announced a discount of several thousand yuan each. In addition, BYD Han DM-i and Han DM-p models can enjoy a cash subsidy of 10,000 yuan before the end of April.

As a result, BYD’s Song, Qin, Han, Tang and Seal were all involved in the price war. The price of the main models in different price ranges has been lowered, and the company’s heart of capturing market share and rushing sales can be learned.

It is rumored in the industry that BYD will challenge the goal of 4 million vehicles this year.Last year, the company sold 1.87 million cars. According to this calculation, to achieve the goal, the sales volume will double..

According to the forecast of China Post Securities, in 2023, BYD’s annual car sales are expected to exceed 2.5 million.

From the sales data, BYD has a strong performance.

According to official information, the 2023 Qin PLUS DM-i Champion Edition received 32,000 orders in 7 days, and the Hantang Double Flagship Champion Edition received 8,196 orders on the same day.

According to the data of the Federation, in February, BYD sold about 177,000 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 103.8%; The market share reached 39.8%, much higher than Tesla, which ranked second.

▲ Sales ranking of new energy brands in February, the picture comes from the Association.

According to the vehicle insurance data tracked by CMB International, from January 1 to March 19, in the mainstream market, BYD has surpassed Volkswagen brand in the same period, becoming the best-selling automobile brand in China.

Is the opponent going to be killed?

In contrast to BYD’s fierce offensive, the life of rivals is not easy.

Qin PLUS DM-i 2023 Champion Edition wants to seize the A-class car market of 100,000-150,000 yuan. This subdivision is mainly joint-venture fuel vehicles, and the representative models include Nissan Sylphy, Volkswagen LaVida and Toyota Corolla.

The Chinese EV Champion Edition is competing with Camry, Accord and other joint-venture B-class cars to seize market share and accelerate the seizure of the fuel vehicle market.

In this round of price war, these two segments are chilly.

According to the China Automobile Industry Association, in the first two months of this year, the traditional fuel A-class vehicles sold a total of 1.266 million vehicles, which was the highest in the oil vehicle market at all levels, but it fell by 25.7% year-on-year; B-class cars sold 549,000 vehicles, down 26.6% year-on-year.

By simply comparing the data in recent years, we can know how fierce BYD is and how much pressure its opponents are under.

BYD’s Qin model,Before 2021, it was not able to squeeze into the top 15 of the car retail list, and entered the list in 2021, ranking 12 th, and jumped to the fourth place in 2022..

In 2021 and 2022, BYD’s sales increased substantially, while Nissan Sylphy, Volkswagen LaVida and Toyota Corolla all declined year-on-year. Last year, the year-on-year decline was over 18%, and Corolla has fallen from the top 3 to the sixth.

▲ Comparison of sales of BYD Qin and Han models with similar models. The data source is the Association, and there is no financial chart.

Although Nissan Sylphy and Volkswagen LaVida are still entrenched in TOP3, after the Qin PLUS DM-i 2023 champion version with a starting price of less than 100,000 came out, the ranking began to have suspense.

In the past February, BYD Qin ranked first, while Sylphy and LaVida fell to third and fifth.

According to Cinda Securities Research Report, BYD Qin PLUS DM-i 2023 Champion Edition is expected to quickly seize the joint venture share of the domestic A-class car market, with an expected monthly contribution of 20,000 vehicles and a steady-state monthly sales of 40,000 vehicles.

BYD Qin’s sales volume last year was 342,000. According to the monthly contribution of the above-mentioned models of 20,000, the annual sales volume can reach 480,000.

Similarly, in the past two years, BYD Han rushed into the top 15 in car retail, ranking fifth last year, ahead of Camry and Accord.

Dongfeng group, which took the lead in "breaking a fracture" in this round of price stations, is a typical representative of the impact.

Dongfeng Group’s products are concentrated in the A-class car and B-class car markets. Last year, the Group’s sales volume dropped by 11.2% year-on-year. Nissan Sylphy and Toyota Corolla, corresponding to the two major joint ventures, Dongfeng Nissan and Dongfeng Honda, the main contributors to sales, all saw their sales drop by over 10% last year.

Besides,The new BYD Han EV is in direct competition with Tesla Model 3 (229,900-329,900 yuan), which has been repeatedly reduced in price, and Tucki P7I (249,900-339,900 yuan), which is also listed soon..

For Xpeng Motors in the trough, Tucki P7i is regarded as "the hope of the whole village", but it is still unknown whether it can shoulder the "explosion mission" of the old P71.

In terms of overall sales volume, in the third week of March, that is, the first week of P7i’s official launch, Xpeng Motors’s overall licensing volume decreased by about 21% compared with the second week.

The other two new car-making forces are great and ideal, and the models focus on the middle and high end. In the mass market that BYD specializes in, there are no products.

Although Weilai has plans to launch the "Alpine" brand covering 200,000-300,000 markets, the first product will not be available until next year at the earliest, and the products with an ideal value of less than 300,000 will not be launched until next year at the earliest.

BYD’s advantage is still great.

According to the data of the Federation, in the first two months of 2022, BYD’s share in the new energy vehicle market was 28.7%, and it increased to over 31% by the end of the year; In the first two months of this year, the share reached 40.8%.

The owner’s story from Jianghuai iEV2 to Geometry A, listening to a car practitioner telling about 9 years of electric life.

Two weeks ago, we told a story about a man.The story of weilai car ownerHe bought his first electric car JAC iEV4 five years ago, and then he was no longer an "electric sprayer".

After the article was published, many old car owners added my WeChat and recalled the first tram they bought that year. Coincidentally, many of these people’s first tram experiences are related to Jianghuai.

What interests me most is one of the car owners named Mingzhou, because he said that he drove an electric car as early as 2011. I quickly checked the data of that year and found that more than 8,000 new energy passenger cars were sold in 2011. In the next two years, the market scale was only in the early 10 thousand, and it was not until 2014 that the real explosive growth was realized.

My intuition tells me that Mingzhou is definitely not an ordinary car owner.

Sure enough. After in-depth communication, he told me that his current occupation is the research and development of new energy vehicles. However, in 2011, he did the research and development of traditional fuel vehicles. At that time, his old club was Jianghuai Automobile.

After the start and development of new energy vehicles, as an industry practitioner, how does Mingzhou view the changes of trams? What expectations did he have for trams? Have they all come true now? Is his car selection experience different from that of ordinary car owners?

We talked intermittently for several days. Today, we can finally present his story to everyone and listen to his story together!

(The owner is in Mingzhou, and the picture is provided by the owner)

In 2001 and 2011, I bought a JAC iEV2 in Hefei.

In 2011, I just graduated and worked in Jianghuai, where I was riding a bike. Later, I talked about my girlfriend and bought a motorcycle. After a fall, my leg ached terribly, so I thought it was time to buy a car.

At that time, a colleague of mine bought JAC iEV1, and only a hundred cars were put into use in Hefei. I drove it several times and it felt good. Half a year later, iEV2, which was on the same platform as iEV1, came. I wanted to try it, so I started with a try.

(Jianghuai iEV2, picture from the network)

At that time, the domestic new energy vehicle market was still in its infancy, and there were few electric vehicles in the market. The state and Hefei municipal government provide great support. In addition to subsidies for car purchase, they can also enjoy free parking and free charging.

But frankly speaking, the technology at that time was still very imperfect and the battery capacity was very low. IEV2 can be regarded as a pioneer model of electric vehicles in China, but it can only run for 100 kilometers, and it has no fast charging function or energy recovery.

In terms of appearance and interior space, this iEV2 is exactly the same as that of Jianghuai Tongyue fuel vehicle at that time, that is to say, iEV2 is still an oil-to-electricity vehicle.

But for me at that time, the main consideration for buying a car was to be able to shelter from the wind and rain and have air conditioning, so it was enough to run to and from work in Hefei, so this iEV2 still met my use requirements.

In the end, the car was driven for less than two years and ran almost 20 thousand kilometers. There was only one problem during this period, and it was reported once in a winter, but it will be fine soon after restarting. It is also such a smooth car experience that I have always believed that Jianghuai has a good reliability.

To say that it is inconvenient, it is because of the limited cruising range and the lack of fast charging function that cross-city use cannot be realized. It was for this reason that I finally sold it, because I was going to work in Nanjing.

I still remember that I chatted with a Japanese expert more than once and said, "If only the electric car could run 300 kilometers."

In 2002 and 2016, I bought JAC iEV4 and BYD Qin in Nanjing.

After I arrived in Nanjing, I bought a fuel-efficient car, but I still feel that the electric car is easier to drive. I have been paying attention to the dynamics of Jianghuai Automobile and I am full of expectations for the electric car.

When you think about it, the requirements at that time were really not high, just hoping for fast charging and energy recovery. Later, I learned that iEV4 began to be sold, and these two functions I was looking forward to very much were available. I quickly returned to Hefei and bought one.

(Jianghuai iEV4, picture provided by the owner)

At that time, the endurance was increased to 150 kilometers, which was much better than iEV2 in acceleration, steering stability and chassis comfort.

The first challenge I faced after picking up the car was to drive the car back to Nanjing from Hefei and challenge the actual distance of 180 kilometers with a battery life of 150 kilometers. I was still a little worried at that time. However, after driving at a speed of 70-80km/h, I really arrived in Nanjing smoothly, and there was about 20% electricity left. At that time, I realized that the working condition was too important for electric vehicles.

In fact, there are many models to choose from in 2016. BYD and BAIC have already produced models with a battery life of 300 kilometers. The reason why we chose JAC iEV4 instead of a 300-kilometer model is mainly the cost performance. This car was the cheapest car I could look at at at that time. Coupled with my familiarity, affection and trust in its quality, it was easy to make such a choice.

After driving iEV4 back to my home in Nanjing, I encountered a new problem-charging. In fact, I can charge at my own door, but the property does not allow it, and I often get complaints. The charging station near my home is also difficult to use, and I often encounter the situation that oil trucks occupy space.

This iEV4 is now being driven by my father who lives in his hometown in Hebei. At that time, it was very hard for us to drive the car back to Hebei. My father and I drove slowly all the way, and we often encountered incompatible charging piles in high-speed service stations, so we had to choose slower charging piles with higher compatibility to charge, so it took us three days and three nights to drive this iEV4.

This is my personal experience. I already have a 300-kilometer electric car that can meet the needs of most people. What is the bottleneck of electric cars? Until now, I also think it is charging.

Fortunately, the quality of this iEV4 is not bad, and it has been very easy to use. Now it has run 30,000 kilometers. Father scoffed before, but now he really likes it. After all, it’s quiet and saves money.

At the end of 2016, I also bought a second-hand BYD Qin PHEV, which was purely to experience plug-in hybrid. I didn’t think that this car, which had only driven 20 thousand kilometers at that time, brought me a lot of trouble First, I bought it and changed a few power batteries soon, and then I changed the motor and gearbox assembly. Later, the state was still not good, and these were changed for the second time, which was very tossing. However, BYD is awesome, and all of them are replaced for free.

Later, I heard from friends in the circle that there were many problems with this first car, and BYD later solved and improved it. But anyway, the experience I had was really not very good.

In March, 2019, I was in Ningbo, and bought JAC iEV6E and Geometry A.

In 2019, I have already worked in Ningbo, but I still pay attention to Hefei Jianghuai and am very interested in the iEV series. Because the subsidy dropped sharply in that year, it was more appropriate to buy a car before the fall. So I started a JAC iEV6E, and later I drove it back to my hometown in Hebei to drive it for my sister.

(Jianghuai iEV6E, picture provided by the owner)

The tram in my home is Geometry A now. In April 2019, after Geometry A went on the market, my wife and I liked it very much and soon went to the store for a test drive.

My lover obviously likes it better than me. I understand that women are all impressionists and attracted by the beautiful temperament of Geometry A.. The interior is sci-fi, the appearance is beautiful, the seat is comfortable, and it is fully functional. It also has L2 assisted driving, and the power is much better than that of previous JAC cars. So at present, this car is driven by both of us. The gas truck is running at 15 or 6 gas, and I am really more and more reluctant to drive.

In fact, it’s not just me, many people around me are like this. As long as the first electric car is not too bad, people often continue to choose the tram for the second car. Even if you have a petrol car at home, you will still buy another tram as a supplement.

Now this Geometry A has been driving for less than a year, and it has run 13,000 kilometers. It is really easy to drive. As long as it is within 150 kilometers one way, we will choose Geometry A..

The reason for this is the distrust of public charging stations, because it is really difficult to judge whether the charging stations in the high-speed service area are good or not unless they have been there. I have encountered the situation that the charging station is not easy to use twice in a row, which is a headache.

In addition, if I say that the one-way distance is less than 150 kilometers, I will choose Geometry A, because the cruising range of my Geometry A is 410 kilometers. I tried it once at high speed, and I can run about 360 kilometers. Plus, I will leave some allowance for myself, and I can run at least 300 kilometers back and forth.

My hometown is in Hebei, which is far from Ningbo where I live. I can’t drive a few times a year, but the mileage will be longer once. In daily life, I drive electric cars the most, and the mileage is much more than that of oil cars every year.

In my opinion, if you only need to drive long distances once or twice a year, electric vehicles can completely replace fuel vehicles. Moreover, the feeling of driving an electric car is too different from that of driving a fuel car. There is no frustration, quietness and unpleasant smell, and the more you drive, the more you like it.

04, 2020, recalling the past and looking forward to the future.

After more than ten years of strong support from the state and huge R&D investment from car companies, the key components such as batteries, motors and electronic controls in China have developed very well. In addition, the oil price is still subject to international crude oil resources, and the electrification of private cars will definitely be a national strategy and a future development trend.

At present, the pioneer Tesla has started the brand, and there are also new power brands that have done well in China. After the localization of Tesla, Huawei, Xiaomi and VIVO in the automotive industry may appear soon.

Although there are many good models with a battery life of 500 kilometers, I always think that electric vehicles are not simply pursuing high battery life. After a certain degree of attenuation, reaching 300 kilometers has actually met the needs of most people.

For the mileage anxiety and charging problems that the industry is generally concerned about, they are actually interrelated. If one problem can be solved, it will not be a problem. For example, considering the attenuation in winter, the battery life can still meet the use requirements; Or realize convenient charging and convenient fast charging.

The residual value of used cars is related to the stability of vehicle quality and market acceptance. In my opinion, in 2025, or a year earlier, electric vehicles will be in full bloom in the China market. At that time, the cost will come down, the sales volume will rise, the acceptance of consumers will rise, and the market will open at once.

Are you also a new energy owner? If you are interested in sharing your car experience, please add me to WeChat 421008676 for a private chat, become the owner of the first electric bull, and send out the voice of the real owner together. There are surprises ~
