(Nezha Auto is a brand of new energy vehicles owned by He Zhong, which was founded on 20 14. It is the only enterprise with "double qualifications" and "double factories" among the new car-making enterprises. )
The shrinkage of Weilai exhibition hall also reflects the difficulty and difficulty of the new force of building cars to a certain extent. However, is Nezha Automobile, which has occupied half of Weilai Exhibition Hall, a powerful "afterwave"? Recently, Deer was invited to participate in the test drive of Nezha U, and finally had a chance to experience the strength of a car of this brand.
Angle of view: "transparent A-pillar" is eye-catching, and the penetrating design has high recognition.
As we all know, there are so many new car-making forces in China that even as a car media, I may not be able to name the logo of these new forces.
But Nezha's car, let me remember it as a success. The reason why I can remember it probably dates back to last year's Guangzhou Auto Show, and the "transparent A-pillar" on Nezha U left a deep influence on me.
The "transparent A-pillar" was actually taken at the Guangzhou Auto Show last year.
The so-called "transparent A-pillar" is simply to capture the road conditions in front of the blind area of the A-pillar through two cameras on the rearview mirror outside the car, and then reflect the photographed road conditions to the driver through two LCD screens embedded in the A-pillar, thus achieving the effect of supplementing the blind area.
Actually, the similar design was not initiated by Nezha U, but in my impression, Nezha U was the first model to put this function into mass production.
So this test drive, I especially hope to experience the dynamic performance of this function. Unfortunately, none of the test cars in this activity are equipped with this configuration. According to the staff, because the OLED screens used are imported, the supply of screens can't keep up with the epidemic, so these vehicles are not assembled now. However, from the simple static experience of the auto show, the clarity and sensitivity of the screen can still make up for the safety hidden danger of the blind area of A-pillar to some extent.
Fortunately, we can also see other "small thoughts" in the design.
Like many pure electric vehicles, Nezha U also adopts a closed front face design. In addition, Nezha U also released the concept car Eureka? Inspired by 0 1, the headlights are designed through, which is quite recognizable. After the lights are on, the brand logo can be outlined, which is full of technology.
Walking to the side of the car, smooth body lines, suspended roof and 19 inch "hot wheels" wheel design all add a lot of sense of movement to this car. Unlike some electric vehicles, which put the charging port in the front, the charging port of Nezha U is placed on the left and right sides respectively.
The design of the rear part echoes the front face, and also adopts the through taillight design, which visually increases the width of the whole vehicle, and at the same time, with the inverted L-shaped lines on both sides of the upper and rear enclosures, the tail shape is more layered.
Walking into the car, two 12.3-inch LCD screens integrated the functions of instrument panel and central control panel. In addition, there is an 8-inch multi-function touch screen in the center console area, and the touch buttons on it also replace most physical buttons, so the overall design looks more avant-garde and concise.
But personally, there are still some fly in the ointment, mainly in two aspects. First, the touch screen of the center console is easy to reflect light under strong light, which is not conducive to operation even if you bow your head, let alone exercise for the blind;
Secondly, Nezha U adopts knob shift. However, personally, I think the material of the knob is too plastic, which is a bit out of place compared with the simple design with full sense of science and technology around it. If the design can be more refined and the material is more textured, it will be more harmonious with the whole interior design.
Passenger's Angle: The voice assistant is smart, and the rear suspension adjustment is hard.
Test drive is of course the most important part of the whole activity.
At the briefing, the staff introduced that although the length of Nezha U is less than 4.6 meters, the wheelbase of 2770mm makes this car have quite spacious rear space. So at the beginning of the test drive, I didn't rush to sit in the driver's seat, but sat in the back row, hoping to experience this so-called "emotional technology pure electric SUV" more deeply.
For me, whose height is 16 1cm, the back row of Nezha U is really spacious. Ge You is completely paralyzed, and the support of the seat cushion for the legs is also very comfortable. A colleague sitting backstage and my height 175cm also said that the space in the back row satisfied him.
The central armrest in the back row has a small design similar to a tissue box, which is quite interesting.
On the way, we flirted with your clever voice assistant on the bus and found its very clever side: for the first time, I proposed to listen to Jay Chou's songs, but I couldn't play them because of copyright issues. When I said "I want to listen to Eason Chan's songs" for the second time, I made a slip of the tongue and said Jay Chou first, and then immediately changed my mouth to Eason Chan. As a result, the system played Eason Chan and Jay Chou's chorus "knockout" very intelligently. I don't know whether it is coincidence or the logic of the system is really so clever. Anyway, the feeling at the moment is absolutely wonderful!
It is worth mentioning that the response of the system is not only intelligent, but also fast, not to mention crushing many joint venture brands, even compared with some independent brands. In addition, the voice assistant can also perform some routine operations, such as window opening, navigation, air conditioning temperature adjustment and so on.
As a passenger, the only drawback is that although Nezha U adopts multi-link rear suspension, its adjustment style is hard. When passing through the speed bump at a certain speed, the road conditions will be directly fed back to the passengers, and the comfort will be reduced.
Driver's angle: the power output is stable and linear, and the car smells of fuel.
I still have to drive in formation after changing hands, and I feel a little unable to display it. So soon after I got on Nezha U, I used it to call it "L2+ level" autopilot assistance system. According to reports, this set of Nezha u? IACC intelligent adaptive cruise can not only work in the full speed range of 0- 150km/h, but also realize the automatic deceleration function in corners. In the actual experience, although the measured speed range is not as wide as the official one, I am deeply impressed by its relatively simple and humanized operation and smooth speed control and adjustment.
In the free driving of the subsequent return trip, I can finally let go of the experience.
Nezha U*** has two power outputs to choose from. The low-power version has a maximum power output of 120kW and a peak torque of 2 10Nm, and is only equipped with the lowest model. The high-power version has a maximum power output of 150kW and a peak torque of 3 10Nm, and it is equipped with this set of power except the lowest one.
In terms of battery life, Nezha U is divided into two versions (400km and 500km) (NEDC working condition), using limited batteries of contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Ltd. with capacities of 54kWh and 68kWh respectively. Based on Hozon? EPT2.0 powertrain platform, Nezha u is equipped with self-developed Hozon? EPT2.0 constant temperature battery management system can achieve 95% constant temperature in the whole working range.
(Hozon？ EPT2.0 constant temperature battery management system can estimate the available capacity, health status and other key parameters of the battery in real time, and manage the charging, discharging and faults of the battery. The vehicle travels 6.5438+0.5 million kilometers, and the battery loss is within 5%. )
In order to provide different driving pleasure, Nezha U provides three modes: "comfort", "economy" and "sports". On the whole, the difference between the three modes is obvious, although the throttle is more sensitive in sports mode. However, the acceleration adjustment is relatively linear, and there will be no uncomfortable feeling of pushing back.
In terms of braking, I personally feel that the front of Nezha U's brake adjustment is soft, and it takes about 1/4 pedal stroke to get obvious braking force. So the braking force is often insufficient at first, but it takes a little time to get used to it.
In addition to adaptive braking, there is a more comfortable braking method, which is to use the energy recovery mode. Like many pure electric vehicles, Nezha U has three levels of energy recovery, 1 is the lightest and level 3 is the strongest. From the actual experience, the recovery strength of 1 gear is almost negligible, and the second gear is only very slight. On the contrary, the third gear has obvious mopping feeling, but fortunately, its adjustment is relatively linear, and there will be no feeling of being suddenly dragged down.
The escort coach also said that the third gear braking effect is the most comfortable and the closest to the fuel car. I can't agree with this, because in the past pure electric vehicle test drive, generally speaking, the second gear is the most moderate. Although the third gear can really achieve "single pedal operation", it is often too strong and the actual experience is unnatural.
Equipped with automatic parking and active braking functions, older than the old driver.
In addition to the roadshow time, the venue also conducted a test drive. In the field test drive, the main experience is automatic parking and active emergency braking system.
In the APA automatic parking experience, after finding a suitable parking space, the driver presses the button and leaves the steering wheel with both hands. Vehicles can automatically park in a narrow parking space that is only 80 cm longer than the length of the car body (that is, 5.3 meters) in the lateral direction only after about 3-5 trips. Then press the stop button, and the vehicle can stop with one button, which is very convenient, and it is good news for both novice and experienced drivers.
In the AEB active emergency braking experience, when the vehicle is fully loaded, the driver accelerates from a distance to 50 km/h, and then collects the oil. When facing the fixed obstacles in front, the speed of Nezha U at 50km/h or below can completely avoid collision through the intelligent system. It is said that this system can not only identify cars, but also effectively identify bicycles, adults and children, which provides a certain guarantee for driving safety.
Finally, of course, talk about power consumption. We test-drive a car with a battery life of 500km, and the official power consumption per 100 km is14.6 kwh. During the whole day's test drive, we recorded an average power consumption per 100 km of 16.2kWh, which is quite satisfactory when there are four people fully loaded, the air conditioner is always on, and occasionally driving in sports mode.
At present, Nezha U has been listed, and the subsidy guidance price is 13.98- 199800 yuan. * * * There are six different models to choose from. Although compared with Weilai and Tucki, the first echelon of new forces, Nezha's reputation is not very big, and its market qualifications are relatively shallow, but its product experience is still worthy of recognition. Generally speaking, it may be an interesting choice for consumers who live in restricted cities and are willing to try new things.
