This trip to Changshu was carefully planned and prepared. I didn't expect to take pictures in the morning, but I didn't take pictures or video in the afternoon. Oh, my God. What am I doing here? The equipment in my schoolbag ...
So there is today's text, but then again, this time I participated in Toyota's EV activity and experienced the feeling of no electricity in the morning, which was very urgent. ...
In other words, this is a mobile phone, and the super power-saving mode of the car won't last that long. However, the battery life of mobile phones should be the same as that of cars. They are telling the truth about their needs and talking about everything being ideal.
The main models we saw this time are: C-HR EV, Yize E-Engine, Lexus UX 300e. These three vehicles are also the first pure electric vehicles of Toyota and Lei Jia in China.
Let's look at the basic data. The maximum output power of UX is 150kW, the maximum torque is 300N·m, the acceleration of 100km is 7.5s, the maximum speed is 160km/h/h, and the ternary lithium ion battery with 54.35kWh has a battery life of 400km under NEDC condition.
The data of C-HR EV and Yuzawa E-Engine are the same, the maximum power 150kW, the maximum torque is 300n·m, and the battery life under NEDC condition is also 400km.
As can be seen from the data, Toyota does not emphasize greater endurance and acceleration performance.
So what does he emphasize? Let's have a boring professional class.
Everybody cheer up. Do not fall asleep. Let me talk about some key points. You can also look at the pictures.
The lithium-ion battery pack is laid flat on the chassis and designed as a part of the body frame. In addition, TNGA (GA-C platform) has a lower center of gravity than the fuel version.
Cold air duct: the lithium-ion battery pack is square (basically, electric vehicles are of similar design at present to achieve the best efficiency). The high-voltage circuit is arranged in the center of the battery pack, and the structure surrounding the battery pack with a cold air duct forms a buffer zone to protect the battery cell and the high-voltage circuit.
In order to improve the waterproof and dustproof performance, the battery packaging is designed as a closed structure. The sealing material adopts sealing rubber strip, which is waterproof and dustproof. At the same time, the bottom of the battery pack is coated with an anti-rust coating (Toyota claims that its thickness is twice that of the conventional coating) to ensure anti-rust performance. In addition, each single battery block has a heating system, which is also for the charging problem in low temperature areas, such as Northeast China, and the durability of the battery.
Ok, see here, a little understand? He just wants to tell you, worry-free and practical. Toyota takes this as a starting point, but isn't this what it should be? However, if you think about it carefully, in the past two years, I have occasionally heard that electric vehicles are on fire and the electrical efficiency is poor. This is indeed the foundation. If this can't be done, it will be a bit embarrassing to talk about unrealistic battery life and fancy human-computer interaction.
Let's talk about UX. Toyota R&D center is not allowed to take photos. After all, this place is a secret. However, each project, each person's experience time does not exceed 5 minutes, and many places cannot be deeply understood. We'll talk about it in detail when we test drive later. Let's draw an outline this time.
The first experience is UX. Pure electric acceleration is really fast. After all, with the blessing of the motor, it is not as fast as the top. The acceleration is not abrupt and the sound is not contradictory. There is no obvious buzz from the subway in the car. The chassis is complete and the posture of the car body is well controlled. Although the tires are ringing, everyone inside is fine and confident in controlling the car.
But in the gold card, the steering wheel feels slippery in your hand, and the grip is thick and flat, but very comfortable. He is an SUV, which was not originally used for extreme driving.
The difference between UX300e.
It's the first time to use the active grille. The battery will automatically turn off when the temperature rises and automatically turn on when the temperature drops. When the air volume during driving is greater than the cold air that needs to be cooled, it will automatically turn off, improving aerodynamics. This is easy to understand, that is, put on clothes when it is cold, and take off clothes when it is hot, that's all.
The interior was replaced by an electronic pole, just like LS. Shift paddles on both sides of the steering wheel are used to adjust energy recovery. Generally, the energy recovery of pure electric vehicles has two or three gears, but the UX 300e has four gears to facilitate your driving habits. I like to drag, at least step on the brakes less. Ha ha ha ha, I'm lazy.
Say goodbye to UX, let's talk about C-HR and Yize.
Look carefully at the front faces of these two cars, except the difference between the bottom honeycomb and the bar, there is no difference.
The position of fangs in the front face is different from that in the ordinary version, and the teeth are longer and straighter. As for the height of the tail, I didn't see it higher than the fuel version. You can compare it yourself. My eyes are wasted.
In terms of interior, there is almost no difference between the two, and 12.3-inch full LCD instrument, electronic shift lever and electric seat are added.
However, in terms of power experience, we drive the gasoline version and pure electricity. To be honest, there is a great difference in acceleration, especially in the middle section, where the speed is 30- 100, and the tram is obviously faster, without the gradual progress of the gasoline car and the wheezing of the engine.
Personally, I prefer the electric version of Tang Ze. Color matching has texture. The roof is mixed with chocolate and the interior echoes, which also fits a smoother sense of acceleration. Low center of gravity, good posture in corners. Just a little tire noise ruined the quiet summer of electric cars.
Anyway, although it is new, it is not strange, and the captain is not strange. It still looks like a gasoline car. After so many years of mixing and turning to pure electricity, HEV and EV have a lot in common. Toyota's advantage lies in the accumulation of experience in "building a car", such as the adjustment of the whole vehicle and the matching of power units.
At the scene, I asked a Japanese engineer a question, that is, why did Toyota choose to start with this level of SUV in the field of pure electricity instead of selling better mid-level cars?
The answer I got is that from the perspective of incremental market, this level is more promising.
Finally, talk about maintenance warranty and price.
The warranty period of Lexus UX 300e is 6 years/150000 km, which is the same as that of Jia Lei. The warranty period of Jia Lei gasoline is 4 years or 100000 km, and the warranty period of Sandian system is 8 years /200000 km. The charging pile is installed free of charge for the first time (the AC charging pile can be filled in 6 and a half hours at the earliest, and if the parking space can't fit, an electronic charging voucher will be sent instead).
I strongly recommend that car lovers go to Lexus 4S shop to blow air conditioners and have a drink. Of course, this is not a sea fishing, but also an experience service. If you are afraid of embarrassment, just watch ES. It's out of stock anyway. It's not that I don't buy.
C-HR EV, Yize E-Engine and Lexus UX 300e, these three cars went on sale at the end of April this year. C-HR EV price: 225,800-249,800 yuan after subsidy, which is divided into five types according to different configurations. Price of Yize E engine: 225,800-253,800 yuan after subsidy, which is divided into three types according to different configurations. Price of UX 300e: 362,000 yuan and 385,000 yuan after subsidy.
The three major power systems, C-HR EV and Yize E-Engine, are also guaranteed free of charge for 8 years/200,000 km, Yize E-Engine provides free warranty and basic maintenance for 3 years/654.38+10,000 km, and C-HR EV also provides free warranty for 3 years/654.38+10,000 km (two free maintenance). The details are different, but they are basically the same.
As you can see, the prices of Toyota's two small SUVs are not cheap. Even with implicit purchase support such as exemption from purchase tax, green card and unlimited line, the price/performance ratio is still not high. In fact, we have tested both C-HR and Yize. The chassis is quite outstanding in a small SUV, which is fun to drive and has a "back wave" shape, which is nothing like the "Toyota" in the past. However, the sultry riding environment brought by the small windows in the back row is not the dish of most people. Europe sells well, but China is another scene.
Let's talk about UX 300e. In addition to the car purchase treatment enjoyed by electric vehicles, I also found an extra "egg" in Lei official website: 50% down payment, zero interest for the next 24 months, and the remaining 50% car payment will be paid in two years. There are quite a few details. You can see more clearly when you go to official website, so I won't go into details.
Well, I went back by bus, because filming was not allowed this time, and I only took a few photos in Shang Hu scenic spot for half an hour, so there was no video. I wrote a manuscript, which was very detailed. It's too difficult for me. Please give me a compliment. ...
