Speaking of pickup trucks, I believe most people will see the picture of muscle pickup trucks in Hollywood blockbusters. Hard core, roughness, large displacement, powerful tool properties, etc. It seems that the pickup truck should be like this. However, if one day it breaks our inertia thinking, becomes more comfortable, is closer to our home scene, or even is driven by pure electricity, will it still be a qualified pickup truck in your heart? Today, we will talk about the first domestic pure electric pickup truck born in the vast sea architecture-Radar RD6.

? ? Break the routine "pickup truck"

If you look at the radar RD6 from the front, it is difficult to associate it with the pickup truck. The less heavy front and closed air intake grille are far from our inherent impression of pickup trucks. Even though the RD6 adopts the exaggerated design of reflux grooves on both sides and adds hard elements such as bottom guard, its front face still looks more like a home SUV.

The headlights of RD6 are integrated with the black decorative panel of the enclosed grille, and the L-shaped LED daytime running lights are connected with four through light bars. This design language not only improves the visual width and integrity of the RD6 front face, but also gives the vehicle more sense of technology and fashion.

In addition, RD6 has a front cabin with a volume of 70L under the engine room cover, with a dust cover, which can store small items such as backpacks, camera bags or tool boxes.

Compared with the conventional front face, the side of the RD6 is a very standard four-door pickup truck shape. With the concave design above the wheel arch and the convex skirt line, the overall visual effect is still relatively tough. In terms of size, RD6 is positioned as a medium-sized pickup truck, with the length, width and height of 5260x 1900x 1830mm and the wheelbase of 3 120mm respectively.

The rear part of the RD6 is simple, with no exaggerated design elements. The prominent rear bumper and silver fender make the rear shape more powerful and layered. Through taillights with "X" light source highlight the design concept of vehicle "riding".

Of course, the biggest highlight of RD6 is its cargo hold. Its volume reaches 1525x 1450x540mm and as high as 1200L, so it can easily hold fishing rods and fishing gear, camping equipment, even refrigerators, ovens and other large items.

At the same time, the cargo hold of RD6 is also equipped with 6kW super-power panel, which has six discharge modes, such as electrostatic discharge, mobile discharge, V2V discharge to the vehicle, 220V/ 10A household electrical interface, 220V/ 16A industrial electrical interface and 12V weak electrical interface. Whether it is small and medium-power appliances such as televisions, computers, table lamps and washing machines, or high-power equipment such as electric kettles, induction cookers, coffee makers, water heaters, air conditioners and drones, power can be obtained through RD6, which can fully meet the diverse power consumption scenarios covering C and B terminals such as RV camping, outdoor barbecue, fishing and diving, live performance, plant protection drone operation, water transportation and road maintenance. This is also the most distinctive feature of RD6.

? ? Internal strength should not be underestimated.

Friends who are familiar with Geely products may feel very cordial when entering the car. Whether it is a simple central control layout, black and brown contrast interior and "?" Air conditioning air outlet, or double 12.3 inch full LCD instrument+suspended central control panel, three-spoke multi-function steering wheel, flying gear handle, exactly the same as Geely Hao. Although this set of interior has maintained a high standard in vision and materials, it seems a little "lack of originality" for a brand-new pickup truck with higher positioning.

The central control of the new car is equipped with the latest Geely Galaxy OS intelligent networking system, with built-in car applications such as Gaode map, voice assistant, multimedia and smart life. The voice assistant can be awakened by "Hello, Xiao Lei", and the functions such as window, air conditioning, navigation and music can be controlled by voice. The overall interactive experience is very smooth, and the recognition accuracy can be maintained at a high level.

Thanks to the advantages of SEA's huge architecture, the space of RD6 is not occupied too much by the cargo hold. Sitting in the back row with a height of 18 1cm, I can still get about 1 of fist and half leg space, with a head allowance of 1 of left and right fists, and there is no obvious bulge on the back floor. In addition, it is equipped with a soft leather seat, a 5 1 inch panoramic sunroof, a 72-color streamer follow-up ambient light, a rear air outlet, a HUD head-up display and an L2+ class assisted driving system, which can provide users with a comfortable and safe driving experience.

In addition, the RD6 car also has rich storage space, including a hollow central passage, a central armrest box with excellent depth, and a storage tank under the rear air outlet. There is even 48L storage space hidden under the rear seat cushion. Even if there are more luggage and odds and ends, we can find a suitable "shelter" for them.

? ? It's as easy to drive as a home SUV

Finally, talk about the test drive experience of radar RD6. The new car * * * is available in three endurance versions: 350km+, 550km+ and 6 10km+. The vehicle for this test drive is a 550km+ medium endurance version, with rear-mounted rear-drive layout and a high-power three-in-one electric drive system. The maximum power is 200kW, and the official 0- 100km/h acceleration time is only 6.

In practical experience, the dynamic response of RD6 is very fast. Without hesitation, you can feel the feedback of power immediately by lightly stepping on the accelerator pedal. After stepping on the accelerator pedal deeply, the obvious backward pedal feeling and the smooth and brisk speed-up process will make you have the illusion that you are not driving a pickup truck. In addition, RD6*** has three driving modes: economy, comfort and sports, and users can switch freely according to their driving habits and needs.

The steering sense of RD6 is very light, and there is no obvious virtual position. When turning, turning, changing lanes and overtaking, you will feel particularly well controlled, just like driving an ordinary household SUV, without the tension of pickup trucks in our memory.

Similarly, the chassis of RD6 is also very passenger. Any small bumps on the road surface can be completely filtered by the chassis. Even on the uneven unpaved road surface, the shock absorber can absorb most of the vibration and create a stable and comfortable riding environment for the people in the car as much as possible.

? ? Edit abstract

If the Great Wall Gun pioneered the pickup truck ride, then the radar RD6 went further, giving the pickup truck the connotation of electrification and diversification. The brisk power performance, comfortable driving experience like a family SUV, and diversified car and electricity scenes have completely broken people's traditional cognition of pickup trucks and become a brand-new "species" closer to people's lives, which is also its competitiveness.

At present, the policy restrictions on pickup trucks are gradually relaxed, and many places in China have even lifted the ban on pickup trucks. The appearance of pure electric pickup radar RD6 undoubtedly brings the reason for further loosening the policy. Perhaps in the near future, more families will enjoy the convenience and playability of pickup trucks.
