As an important brand of new forces, Weilai Automobile has led the domestic pure electric SUV market segment for 13 consecutive months. In the golden autumn of Beijing, we finally ushered in the test drive of Weilai EC6. Let's take a look at its performance! If someone wants to buy a new energy vehicle, they must mention Weilai Automobile. As an important brand of new forces, Weilai Automobile has led the domestic pure electric SUV market segment for 13 consecutive months. In the golden autumn of Beijing, we finally ushered in the test drive of Weilai EC6. Although this CoupeSUV has been released for a long time, the time to market has been delayed due to the epidemic, and our test drive is also late. The Weilai EC6, which was delivered in late September, started at a price of 368, yuan before subsidy. It has three vehicle versions, namely, signature version, performance version and sports version, and there are two battery schemes of 7 kWh and 1 kWh to choose from. Appearance: Wei Lai, or that Wei Lai. Some people say that apart from styling, the luxury of Weilai EC6 is not compromised at all. Yes, Weilai EC6 inherits the family-style design language of Weilai Automobile, adopts coupe style and has streamlined design. As a coupe SUV version of Weilai ES6, the biggest change of the two cars lies in the addition of a slip-back body design. The integrated dome-shaped glass roof area has reached 2.1 square meters, and the visual effect is quite shocking. The discerning X-Bar front face style, coupled with the use of a large number of curves, is still a very aggressive and futuristic shape. Split headlights, long and narrow LED daytime running lights and turn signals are exactly the same as ES6. If you look closely, you can see that some chrome trim strips have been added inside the net to enhance the overall effect. The appearance of Weilai EC6 mainly depends on the side. It has a sexier slip-back shape. The outline of the roof slowly descends from the B-pillar position, and the smooth lines extend to the rear of the car, and then blend with the slightly tilted duck tail design. The sense of movement and coordination of the whole car are just right. 17, the aerodynamic performance of Weilai EC6 is excellent, and the drag coefficient is .26cd. The whole vehicle presents a visual feeling ready to go, which is both dynamic and elegant. Weilai EC6 is the first time to adopt the design with the same body color. It has six paint colors to choose from, and EC6 provides six paint colors to choose from. Among them, five colors, namely Yunbai, Deep Space Black, Star Grey, Mars Red and Extreme Sky Blue, are provided free of charge, of which Extreme Sky Blue is its exclusive color, while Antarctic Blue needs to be charged 1, yuan. This new car is still positioned as a luxury medium-sized SUV, with a body size of 485/1965/1731(1714)mm and a wheelbase of 29mm, which is bigger than Mercedes-Benz GLC and Audi Q5L, and it is still a veritable "big guy". Therefore, EC6 has the spacious and comfortable interior space of Weilai Automobile as always. At the same time, as a new energy vehicle, it feels better than the driving space of the same level of fuel vehicles. In addition, Weilai EC6 has five wheels to choose from. The sports and performance models come standard with 19-inch five-spoke wheels, and the other four models are 2-21 inches in size, among which the carbon fiber wheels are designed with low wind resistance. In order to solve the problem that the sliding back shape encroaches on the passenger's head space, and also to look good in visual effect, the panoramic skylight on ES6 is changed to the panoramic canopy on EC6. It is called the canopy because it covers an area of 2.1 square meters. At the same time, it also innovatively adopts an integrated dome-shaped glass roof and adopts double-layer high-strength tempered glass. Its light transmittance is 15%, while enjoying the most beautiful sky privately, it can isolate more than 83% of heat and 99.5% of ultraviolet rays. Interior: Simple and textured, with advanced comfort. In the interior of Weilai EC6, the family style is still continued, and the design style is simple, luxurious, comfortable and full of science and technology. In the center console part, there are a lot of curved lines to create a sense of hierarchy. Through different materials and colors, the interior atmosphere of Weilai EC6 is more fashionable. The EC6 car has a combination of BASF Haptex synthetic leather and Nappa leather. BASF Haptex synthetic leather has excellent production efficiency and mechanical properties. It can still maintain excellent durability, wear resistance and hydrolysis resistance in the environment of -3℃, effectively reduce VOC content and odor in the car, and improve the air quality in the car. There are three options for the interior color matching of the vehicle, including technical black, Himalayan brown and speed gray, and speed gray only appears in the interior of Nappa leather. Himalayan brown was specifically mentioned by the product manager, and it is said that it was inspired by the first ray of sunshine falling on the Himalayas in the morning. This is an interior color scheme that is neither too picky nor boring. Weilai EC6 comes standard with Microfiber Microfiber ceiling and Nappa leather sports steering wheel, which is very similar to Alcantara or suede in texture and soft in touch. At the top of the instrument panel and the door panels of the front and rear four doors, the Microcloud fiber cloud material with more delicate touch is innovatively used, which can be said that the sports atmosphere will not make the comfortable texture a little discount. EC6 still brings Weilai intelligent digital cockpit, which has rich technology configuration. The 9.8-inch ultra-narrow digital instrument standard in the whole system can display driving mode, multimedia projection and vehicle status; 11.3-inch high-definition multi-touch central control panel, the UI design style is still simple and capable. Because the car system has integrated most of the car functions, there are few physical buttons in the car, which makes the interior more concise; Built-in NIOOS2. car machine system and the latest NOMIMate2. artificial intelligence robot can form a complete voice human-computer interaction. You can enjoy the intelligent and efficient in-car digital interactive experience while driving, and the journey is no longer boring and monotonous. Weilai EC6 also comes standard with advanced surround sound. It is equipped with 12 speakers and 6 sound stage modes to choose from, combined with 5.1 immersive surround sound, which brings you immersive listening enjoyment. The rear passengers have independent air outlet, USB interface, and the rear cup holder also supports magic retraction, which is beautiful and practical. As a coupe SUV, EC6 adopts a hatchback tailgate design, with a large opening, which is convenient for taking things and a large trunk space, which can fully meet the needs of daily travel. Weilai EC6 also provides a wealth of optional packages: Nappa leather optional package includes front seat ventilation and massage functions, while Queen's co-driver optional package provides leg dragging, foot dragging and larger backward moving space for the co-driver's seat, as well as steering wheel heating, rear seat heating, intelligent fragrance, HUD and other functions. Power: 4.5-5.4 seconds acceleration per 1 kilometers. In terms of power, Weilai EC6 has two different power systems. The sports version is equipped with 16kW permanent magnet motors at the front and rear, while the high-end version is equipped with the front 16kW permanent magnet motor and the rear 24kW AC asynchronous induction motor. The maximum total output power reaches 32/4kW and the maximum output torque is 61/725Nm. The 1-kilometer acceleration results of these two models are very strong, which are 4.5 and 5.4 seconds respectively. Endurance: 43km, 44km, 65km, 615km, which completely solves the mileage anxiety. In terms of batteries, Weilai EC6 provides 7kWh and 1kWh batteries with NEDC battery life of 43km, 44km, 65km and 615km respectively. At present, the battery capacity of the three models on sale is 7kWh, and the 1kWh model will not be available until December. Also released at the same time as Weilai EC6 is Weilai's 2kW household DC charging pile. This charging pile only needs 38V three-phase power supply, which will greatly improve the charging efficiency of household charging pile. Theoretically, it only takes 5 hours to complete the charging of 1kWh battery pack. In fact, Weilai Automobile also provides charging car service for car owners. It is a charging car, similar to a mobile charging treasure, which can complete the charging operation with a battery life of 1 kilometers in 1 minutes. In addition, Weilai Automobile can also use Weilai super-charging piles or third-party charging equipment in the public area to supplement the power. Coupled with Weilai NIOPower's power exchange service, it can be said that there is no mileage anxiety when buying Weilai Automobile. Driving: Just to feel NOP. Software version: NIOOS2.7. chip: MobileyeEyeQ4 vision chip MMW radar: 5 MMW radar ultrasonic radar: 12 ultrasonic radar cameras: 1 binocular camera +4 36 parking cameras. This test drive of Weilai EC6 started from Weilai Center in Zhongguancun, Beijing, and went to Huairou Yanqi Lake Scenic Area, 7km away, including urban roads and expressways along the way. In addition to experiencing the powerful acceleration performance of Weilai EC6 in 4.5 seconds, the key point of our test drive is to experience the pilot-assisted NOP function just released by Weilai Automobile at the 22 Beijing Auto Show for the first time. Recently, Weilai Automobile has pushed the latest version of NIOOS2.7. system to users batch by batch through FOTA. Users who have installed the NIOPilot full package will get the NOP function after this update. NOP stands for NavigateonPilot, which deeply integrates navigation system, high-precision map and NIOPilot automatic assisted driving system on the basis of the functions of cruise speed control, distance keeping, steering assistance and lane change control by turn signals that have been realized by Pilot function. The new NOP pilot assisted driving system makes Weilai the second car company in the world to launch this function after Tesla NOA. NOP supports the navigation path planning, and it can automatically enter and exit the ramp and switch the main roads under most highways and urban expressways covered by high-precision maps. It can dynamically adjust the speed, intelligently change lanes and overtake the slow train in the lane according to the information such as road speed limit requirements and environmental vehicle condition perception, and realize automatic assisted driving according to the navigation route under the specified path. In terms of autonomous driving, Weilai EC6 adopts NIOPilot autonomous driving assistance system independently developed by Weilai, and is equipped with MobileyeEyeQ4 autonomous driving chip to complete autonomous driving operation. The vehicle is equipped with three current cameras, four panoramic cameras, five millimeter-wave radars and 12 ultrasonic sensors. All three models of Weilai EC6 are equipped with basic NIOPilot functions as standard, which can realize L1-level automatic driving assistance functions such as cruise control, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking and lane departure warning. The signature version also comes standard with NIOPilot's full package, which can realize L2-level autopilot functions such as automatic assisted navigation driving, congestion automatic assisted driving and turn signal control lane change. This includes: automatically merging into the main road, cruising in the main road and intelligently choosing the optimal driving lane, automatically switching to another expressway or viaduct according to the navigation plan, and automatically leaving the main road. Of course, in all the process of automatic assisted driving, the vehicle will remind the driver of the next operation of the vehicle through screen display and voice prompt. If the driver does not want to complete this operation, it reserves enough time for manual intervention. In the process of NOP driving, the vehicle will intelligently adjust the speed of the vehicle by integrating information such as road speed limit and environmental perception, and if it feels that the following speed and the following distance are not suitable, it can also adjust the distance. However, in any case, Weilai NOP is still an auxiliary driving function, and it will be in the stage of continuous optimization for a long time, so drivers still need to always pay attention to the driving state of the vehicle. In Beijing, NOP can use the pilot-assisted autopilot function on the ring roads and high-speed roads outside the Fifth Ring Road. However, you can't completely ignore the road conditions, and you should always take over the steering wheel and pedals according to the vehicle reminder. Moreover, the fatigue monitoring system will also remind you whether you are focused on driving, and will prompt you if you are distracted. If you want to experience the NOP function, you need to choose the NIOPilot full package, and the optional price of the NIOPilot full package is 39, yuan. On the basis of the selected package function, the full package has eight functions, such as pilot assistance (NOP), high-speed automatic assisted driving (HighwayPilot), turn signal control lane change (ALC), road sign recognition (TSR) and automatic speed limit adjustment (ISA). After entering the ADAS interface, you will see the "navigation assistance" function when you slide down. After turning on the navigation assistance function, the system will remind you of the precautions for using the navigation assistance function. There will also be functions such as turn signal control lane change, NOMIPilot prompt tone, car-following start prompt, road sign recognition and driver fatigue monitoring. If any of the functions such as turn signal control lane change, road sign recognition, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, blind spot monitoring and lane change warning are turned off, the pilot-assisted driving function will be turned off. In the actual driving process, under the road conditions with small traffic flow, the vehicle's self-selected lane change effect is good, which saves effort and effort, and will not be too abrupt. However, when the road conditions are relatively complicated, the self-selected lane change will be prompted by voice to cancel the lane change, and NOMI will make a voice: if you are a little nervous, you will not change the lane, and so on, and the driving atmosphere is very relaxed. When changing lanes, if there is a vehicle speeding up behind to catch up, even if the vehicle has already crossed the lane line, the system will still choose to return to the original lane to avoid the danger caused by forcibly grabbing the lane. The overall strategy is conservative and reassuring. Back to driving itself, Weilai EC6 adopts ultra-high-strength all-aluminum body and aviation-grade 7-series aluminum in key structural parts, which enables the torsional stiffness of the whole vehicle to exceed 4, Nm per degree. There are also active air suspension system and CDC dynamic damping control system as standard, which make Weilai EC6 enjoy comfortable driving pleasure while having perfect control. Coupe-shaped SUV models have now become the development trend of SUV models, and almost all luxury brands, independent and joint venture brands are launching new CoupeSUV models. For example, Mercedes-Benz GLE and GLECoupe, Volkswagen Touran and Touran X, Porsche Cayenne and Cayenne Coupe, etc. Coupe-shaped SUV is so popular because this streamlined body is born to symbolize sports and fashion. The new energy vehicle has the natural advantage of launching CoupeSUV. In this era of surging waves, although such a coupe pure electric SUV will appear a little niche, however, the times belong to young people, the younger generation of consumers with strong spending power, who yearn for individuality, love novelty, pursue scientific and technological intelligence, and have the ultimate pursuit of comfort and luxury. Weilai EC6 is for them.
