The M5 is a mid-size SUV launched by Celis Automotive, which adopts a range-extended hybrid system and combines the advantages of pure electric and fuel power, aiming to provide an efficient, environmentally friendly and intelligent driving experience. In February 2022, the M5 launched the 2022 extended range model, which has been comprehensively upgraded in terms of power, range, and configuration, enhancing the competitiveness and attractiveness of the product.

*The power system of the M5 Range Extender consists of three parts: a range extender, a generator and an electric motor. The range extender is a 1The 5T four-cylinder turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 125 horsepower increased to 152 horsepower and a peak torque of 205 Nm, is mainly used to charge the battery and does not directly drive the wheels. The generator is rated at 60kw, which can provide stable power to the motor. The electric motor is divided into rear-wheel drive version and four-wheel drive version, the rear-wheel drive version of the motor has a maximum power of 272 horsepower and a peak torque of 360 NmThe all-wheel drive version has a total power of 428 hp or 496 hp and a peak torque of 720 Nm or 675 Nm. The electric motor drives the wheels directly, providing a strong power output.

*The power system of the M5 extended range version has been significantly improved compared with the old model, not only the power of the range extender has increased by 22%, but the power of the generator has also increased by 20%, making the battery charge faster and the power of the motor more sufficient. At the same time, the performance of the electric motor has been optimized, improving efficiency and responsiveness, reducing energy consumption and noise. **The official 0-100km h acceleration time of the M5 extended range version is 71 second (rear-wheel drive version) and 44 seconds (four-wheel drive version), which is 03 seconds and 0In 2 seconds, the top speed is 200 km h (rear-wheel drive version) and 210 km h (all-wheel drive version), and the power performance is excellent.

*The range of the M5 Range Extender has also been significantly improved, mainly due to the increase in battery capacity and the reduction in fuel consumption. **The battery capacity of the M5 extended range version has been increased by 25% from the original 40kWh to 50kWh, and the battery energy density has also increased from the original 1417Wh kg increased to 160Wh kg, the battery performance is better. **The WLTC pure electric range of the M5 extended range version has been increased by 70% from 150 km to 255 km, and the CLTC pure electric range has been increased by 67% from 180 km to 300 km.

*The fuel consumption level of the M5 extended range version has also been significantly reduced, mainly due to the optimization of the powertrain and the lightweight body. **The power system of the M5 extended range version adopts more efficient turbocharging technology, more accurate fuel injection technology, and more intelligent energy management technology, which makes the fuel efficiency of the range extender higher, the power conversion rate of the generator higher, and the energy consumption of the motor lower. **The body of the M5 extended range version uses more aluminum alloy materials, which reduces the weight of the body, reduces the drag coefficient, and makes the driving resistance of the vehicle smaller. **The WLTC fuel consumption of the M5 Range Extender has been increased from 081L 100km reduced to 053L 100km, reduced by 35%, the lowest state of charge fuel consumption from the original 64L 100km reduced to 52L 100km, a reduction of 19%, and a lower level of fuel consumption.

Combining the above two factors, the comprehensive endurance of the M5 extended range version has also been significantly improved. **The comprehensive cruising range of the M5 extended range version has increased from the original 1100 kilometers to 1500 kilometers, an increase of 36%, and the cruising capacity has reached more than twice that of pure electric vehicles of the same level, effectively solving the range anxiety of pure electric vehicles and meeting the long-distance travel needs of users.

*The configuration level of the M5 Extended Range Edition has also been significantly improved, mainly reflected in the fact that it is equipped with Huawei's high-end intelligent driving system, which provides a variety of intelligent driving assistance functions to improve safety and convenience. Huawei's Advanced Intelligent Driving System is a set of intelligent driving solutions jointly developed by Huawei and Celis Automotive, which includes hardware, software, and services. In terms of hardware, the M5 extended range version is equipped with 1 lidar, 3 millimeter-wave radars, 11 cameras and 12 ultrasonic radars, forming a 360-degree all-round perception ability, which can detect vehicles, pedestrians, obstacles and other targets within 200 meters.

At the same time, the M5 extended range version is also equipped with Huawei's self-developed MDC intelligent driving computing platform, which has a data processing capacity of 1GB seconds, which can achieve high-speed and high-precision decision-making and control. In terms of software, the M5 extended range version is equipped with Huawei ADS 20 high-end intelligent driving system, providing a variety of intelligent driving assistance functions, including: NCA (intelligent driving pilot assistance): on the highway, the system can realize automatic following, automatic lane change, automatic speed regulation, automatic obstacle avoidance and other functions, so that the driver can relax his hands and enjoy a comfortable high-speed cruising experience. The system can also automatically select the best entrance and exit based on the navigation information, so as to avoid missing exits or entering the wrong lane.

APA (Intelligent Parking Assist): The system can automatically search for and identify surrounding parking spaces, including unconventional parking spaces such as ramp parking spaces and broken parking spaces, so as to realize the ability to park when seen. The system also automatically controls the steering wheel, accelerator, brake and gear shift to complete the parking action, making parking easy and simple. RPA (Remote Parking Assist): The system can remotely control the parking action of the vehicle through the mobile phone APP, realizing the function of direct entry and direct exit, solving the parking problem of narrow parking spaces, and allowing drivers to easily get out of the car or pick up objects. **P (Valet Parking Assist): The system can automatically find and drive into a suitable parking space through the mobile phone APP command, so as to realize the driverless parking function, so that the driver can save the trouble of finding a parking space. The system can also automatically drive the vehicle out of the parking space through the mobile phone APP command, realize the driverless car pick-up function, so that the driver can quickly get into the car.

Huawei's high-end intelligent driving system also provides a variety of intelligent interconnection functions, including: Huawei Hicar: The system can seamlessly connect the mobile phone to the vehicle, allowing the driver to use the applications, services, and data on the mobile phone, such as navigation, payment, and communication, through the on-board screen or voice control, to achieve a full-scene experience of intelligent travel. HUAWEI HiLink (Huawei Smart Home Connect): The system enables the interconnection of vehicles and smart devices in the home, allowing drivers to remotely control air conditioners, lights, curtains, and security in their homes through on-board screens or voice control, achieving a full-scene experience of smart life. HUAWEI HiCloud: The system enables high-speed connectivity between the vehicle and the cloud, allowing drivers to enjoy cloud data storage, data analysis, data synchronization, and other services, enabling an all-scenario experience of intelligent driving.

*The M5 Range Extender is a medium-sized SUV that combines high efficiency, environmental protection, and intelligence, which has not only been comprehensively upgraded in terms of power, range, and configuration, but also is equipped with Huawei's high-end intelligent driving system, which provides a variety of intelligent driving assistance functions and intelligent interconnection functions, so that drivers can enjoy a safer, more convenient, and more comfortable driving experience. The M5 extended range version also has more advantages than pure electric models of the same level, and is more cost-effective, which is a model worth paying attention to and choosing.
