Red Flag E-HS9 leads the way, independent brands make an effort to take stock of new energy models listed in December

With the gradual increase in the number of new energy models, people's choices are getting wider and wider, from mini-cars to SUVs, from 400km range to 600km+ range models we can buy. Even into the "bumpy" 2020 there are a lot of new energy vehicles to come. This year, the "new crown" burst, new energy vehicle sales several cuts, but also new energy power, new car-making forces in the capital market harvest year, but also the traditional car companies in the crisis of the transformation of the opportunity to make a living.

While the November new energy vehicle sales list is not yet out, but many car companies began to layout the next year's program, and the end of previous years, new energy vehicle enterprises "anxious" to rush in the New Year on the arrival of the new different, this year in Beijing, Guangzhou Auto Show will bring no less than twenty models, and as the last January 2020, the new energy segment market is as bleak as it was in the past. As if the new energy market segment has dimmed a lot, but there are a few products to appear as the finale, today we will talk about them in detail.

One, Red Flag E-HS9

Pre-sale price: 55.00-75.00 million yuan

Launch time: December 4

The first recommendation is? Red Flag E-HS9 model, before our colleagues have made a detailed test drive of this car, here we will talk briefly. At last year's Frankfurt Motor Show, Red Flag, as a "special" independent brand, brought an E115 pure electric concept car, which at the time we all agreed would only serve as a facade, but we didn't know that people were playing for real, and the new car has already completed the pre-public media test drive, so we're waiting for the new car's official listing on December 4th. The new car will be sold on December 4, and the price will be the same as the new car.

Talking about Red Flag, must be mentioned is the sales, once less than 1,000 to today's luxury car series sales exceeded 100,000 units, Red Flag seems to be hanging on; in this year's October luxury sedan sales list, Red Flag's new luxury sedan H9 monthly sales of 2,103 units, is located in the list of the seventh; the same October sales, FAW Red Flag's sales of 1,530,000 units, a year-on-year increase of 103%, this is for FAW Red Flag's sales of 1,500,000 units, a year-on-year growth of 103%. This is for FAW Hongqi, to complete the 2020 sales target probability of no problem.

But Red Flag doesn't seem to have the intention to rest, at this moment the Red Flag from sedan to SUV to new energy field have layout, said it is a comprehensive blossom, and now ushered in a new car E-HS9 to improve the product line layout. The E-HS9, a full-size luxury electric SUV, will be officially launched in early December, and it deserves its place as the grand finale of the new energy vehicle segment.

As a large luxury pure-electric SUV, Red Flag E-HS9 to a certain extent supports people's longing for a strong "face" and sufficient "interior". In the front design, Red Flag E-HS9 avoids the traditional serious and stereotypical design of Red Flag and adopts the new mainstay family design, and the "high mountains and flowing water" shape grille also gives the car a strong Chinese element. It's worth noting that the grille is not completely closed, and the center section can be actively opened and closed to take into account wind resistance and heat dissipation, making it very practical.

The E-HS9 measures 5209/2010/1731 millimeters with a wheelbase of 3110 millimeters. The car has air suspension and chassis ground clearance of up to 240 millimeters, while in loading mode, the ground clearance drops very low to allow users to access items from the luggage compartment. The sides also show the flagship model's caliber.

Inside, it's fair to say that the real selling point of the Red Flag E-HS9 is luxury. The natural straight-grained walnut trim, metal-textured door panels, and diamond-checkered leather seats with bold stitching bring a very traditional and sophisticated touch of luxury to the E-HS9.

Configuration-wise, the Red Flag E-HS9 features 18-way adjustable seats and an integrated wrap-around large-screen design, while the car adopts a streaming rearview mirror and an enhanced real-estate head-up display system for greater practicality. And in terms of technological display, the E-HS9 adopts the new FEEA2.0 electronic and electrical architecture, which fully meets the requirements of the L3 level of automated driving while having the potential to be expanded to part of the L4 level.

Power part, the Red Flag E-HS9 adopts the FME platform, adopts the front 160kW, rear 160kW dual-motor integrated drive, with a combined power of 405 kW, peak torque of 750 Nm, respectively, with the capacity of 84 kWh, 99 kWh lithium-ion battery packs, and the NEDC comprehensive working condition range of 400 kilometers, 500 kilometers, respectively.

Editor's comment:

In my personal understanding of the E-HS9 for Red Flag does not lie in the sales, after all, more than 500,000 yuan price point in the new energy market do not seem to be very good sales, Tesla Model?S/Model?X and other models sales have plummeted, and like Audi, Mercedes-Benz, such as the launch of the traditional brand of luxury electric SUVs are not quite sold; now this is the case! Luxury high-end positioning SUV sales is not a product problem, but the demand for market segments is limited, so the ultimate mission of the Red Flag E-HS9 is to Red Flag to the outside world to convey that we have such a level of high-end manufacturing, design and technological processes, as for the mission of the sales volume is still given to the fuel car to do.

Second, the new Baojun E300 small Biu

Launch time: late December

Pre-sale price: 65,800-85,800 yuan

The new Baojun E300 small Biu continues the design of the ordinary version of the model, the "Star Geometry" design language combines the brand's unique intelligent gene.

The new Baojun E300 small Biu continues the design of the normal version of the model, the "Star Geometry" design language combines the brand's unique intelligent genes, the two square light clusters are surrounded by blue strips to form a strong sense of hierarchy, and between the light clusters in the "BIU" identity mark, the new Baojun logo and new energy-specific closed design greatly enhances the overall quality of the car.

The two-color floating design separates the whole car into two parts, and the visual sense of hierarchy is stronger. The car measures 2625/1647/1588 millimeters (1595 millimeters), from a distance there is a kind of cute sense of vision, such styling and the Wuling Hongguang MINI?EV has a high degree of similarity.

Coming to the interior, the design of the new Baojun small Biu is as simple as the normal version, canceling the center control screen, only has a full LCD dashboard with a two-spoke multi-function steering wheel, and a lot of rounded rectangles to make its design more youthful. And in the configuration part, the car supports AI artificial intelligence voice interaction, remote control and cell phone car search and other functions, and the parking system is provided on the high end model, which can realize APP control of the vehicle, one-key parking and manual remote parking.

Finally, the power part, the car adopts a 40 kW drive motor, with a capacity of 31.9 kWh lithium battery pack, NEDC range of 305 kilometers, support for 220V home charging, fast charging only 1 hour.

Editor's comment:

It is not difficult to find that the visibility of miniature electric cars on urban roads is increasing, and the reasons for choosing it are no more than the advantages of cheap price, unlimited lines, unlimited number, small size and good parking after the car, and the same as a miniature car of the Wuling Hongguang MINI?EV has become a direct rival to it, but combined with the 23,762 sales in October previously, its Cost-effective to be much higher, at the same time in terms of growth, the total sales of sedans also ranked in the forefront, so for the new Baojun and many other new energy manufacturers, the Wuling Hongguang MINI?EV model of short-term success has a high reference value.

MG Pilot?PHEV

Launch time: within December

MG Pilot PHEV has not changed much compared with the fuel version, but this product in the addition of the battery pack, so that the economy of the car has been greatly improved. Such a new energy vehicle may be a good choice for cities with limited license plates and purchase restrictions on fuel vehicles. The car will be officially launched within the next month.

The MG Pilot PHEV adopts the "Shark Hunt" front design concept. Through the "inverted buckle" approach to the front face of the opening and headlamps are separated, creating a sports car general low front face posture, and around the cover and the center mesh also make the front face more distinctive sense of hierarchy. The car also features specific LED headlamps with progressive arrays and fang-like LED daytime running lights to enhance its aggressiveness.

Dimensionally, the MG Pilot PHEV measures 4610/1876/1685 millimeters in length, width and height, respectively, with a wheelbase of 2720 millimeters. The side of the body is not overly trimmed, and the slightly muscular shape makes it fuller.

Coming to the interior, a lot of leather upholstery is solidly made, and the whole creates a good luxury atmosphere. The leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel with 12.3-inch LCD gauges + 10.1-inch center control screen design, together with the fighter jet style electronic gear lever, creates an extremely strong sense of sport.

Lastly, in terms of power, the MG Pilot PHEV adopts a 1.5T engine with a drive motor, with a combined power of up to 224 kilowatts, and is paired with a lithium-ion battery pack with a capacity of 16.6 kilowatt-hours, giving it a pure electric range of 75 kilometers. In addition, it continues the IEM intelligent energy management system adopted by the MG family, which reduces energy consumption and emissions by 3% overall.

Editor's comment:

At present, from the point of view of the product planning released by the brands, although the automatic brand's point of strength is still above the pure electric models, but it is not difficult to find that there are still BYD Han, Link, Toyota and other brands continue to play the advantages of plug-in hybrid market, and it is not difficult to see that the launch of the plug-in hybrid brand is still a lot of the previous Guangzhou Auto Show. After all, in the new energy market is more complete today, the growth opportunities are less obvious, plug-in hybrid models you can see it as an important opportunity to develop the brand advantage, but also look forward to the MG series of models can have more room to play.
