On December 9, it was reported that @aito Auto responded to part of the controversy about the M7 model in the "2023 Chedi Winter Test" late last night.
It is understood that the domestic car media "Know Chedi" has recently conducted winter tests on dozens of new energy vehicles, but in the "pure electric endurance achievement rate" project of the plug-in hybrid group, the M7 is only 3160% achievement rate, ranking at the bottom.
According to the question, the test** confirmed that the vehicle was heated by air conditioning for a total of 71 minutes before the official test, and after the temperature inside the car reached 24 degrees Celsius, it continued to heat for another 40 minutes.
In this process, there are more than ten operations to open and close the doors and windows, of which the longest time is more than 3 minutes, which greatly increases the energy consumption of the air conditioner and leads to a rapid drop in power. Under the extreme cold and continuous heating conditions of the air conditioner, the windows and doors are opened for a long time many times, which seriously deviates from the user's real usage scenario.
In addition, the remaining charge of the vehicle at the time of the test was 749%, with the driver and 4 60kg sandbags on board, the test started until the battery level was 20The range extender starts at 4% and actually consumes 54 battery power5% to achieve a pure electric range of 55 in extreme weather conditions in winter3 km.
The Question Circle also said that the pass rate was only 33In 3% of the "Night Snow ACC vs. Static Fake Car Test (60km H)", the Wenjie series models successfully passed, and in the subsequent "Night Snow Backlight ACC vs. Static Fake Car Test (60km H)", the Wenjie series models were able to identify obstacles in advance and brake steadily.
However, in the "Test of Static Fake Cars by Backlit and Snow ACC at Night (40KMH)", the first round of the new M7 passed smoothly, and the vehicle showed "Active Safety Assistance System Limited" when it was 100 meters away from the fake car, because the tester mistakenly thought that the ACC was invalid, and the test was judged to be invalid, but in fact, the alarm was an active prompt after the vehicle's AEB*3 system was affected by extreme snow and fog weather, and did not affect the ACC results.
