As the first high-end medium and large electric sedan under the Xingtu brand, the new ES car is priced at 1988-33.980,000. In the future, it will be exported overseas, and the selling price will also reach the million level. The leapfrog increase in the export price is the blind confidence of the Star Era ES? Or is Star Era ES really unique? The answer, of course, is the latter.
On the basis of adopting the E0X pure electric platform, which has invested a total of 10 billion yuan and lasted 4 years of independent research and development, the Epoch ES is also equipped with a gimbal chassis. With the blessing of the gimbal chassis, it also brings the display of the product strength of the Star Era ES to a higher level.
The Star Era ES suspension is configured as a four-wheel independent suspension with front double wishbone + rear five-link link, and is equipped with IAS intelligent air suspension and CDC electromagnetic damping shock absorption system. It is worth mentioning that the front double wishbone independent suspension adopts the design of the front high-end double wishbone with a virtual kingpin, and the lower control arm is replaced by two connecting rods with a triangular control arm, and the virtual kingpin formed by the two control arms is closer to the wheel contact position, and at the same time will change according to the different steering angles, providing the most ideal ground contact angle for the wheels to the greatest extent, as well as a more natural steering feel and a more stable high-speed straight driving state, so that the Star Era ES has more possibilities in terms of handling and comfort.
The highlights of the IAS intelligent air suspension and CDC electromagnetic damping and damping system that are standard in all ES series are that it has six major functions: high-speed suspension intelligent control, suspension soft and hard adjustable, chassis lifting and lowering, intelligent vehicle height adjustment, body attitude maintenance, and intelligent welcome. The one-key assisted pass mode can raise the suspension height by 50mm, so that the ground clearance of the vehicle reaches 180mm at the SUV level, which not only ensures passability and does not have to worry about the occurrence of underpinning. CDC electromagnetic damping can use sensing hardware and algorithms to predict speed bumps, pre-adjust suspension damping, and improve ride comfort when passing speed bumps.
Thanks to the construction of the gimbal chassis, the Epoch ES has a lightweight steel and aluminum body and an all-aluminum chassis made of a large number of aluminum alloy materials. The self-developed one-piece die-casting technology successfully integrates the chassis parts from 78 into 4 aluminum castings: the front shock absorber tower and the rear longitudinal member wheel cover. In this way, the processing quality is improved, and the deviation caused by the process complexity and tolerance accumulation is reduced; The overall mechanical characteristics are more consistent, the structural strength is significantly improved, the structural safety is improved, and the stiffness is increased by about 50%; Reduce manufacturing costs, improve material utilization, and increase production efficiency; The utilization rate of die-casting materials can reach more than 95%; Weight loss of about 30%.
In addition, thanks to the empowerment of the 800V high-voltage (electrical) platform, the Epoch ES can increase the cruising range by 10%, increase the charging speed by 50-100%, and reduce the energy consumption by about 4-5% per 100 kilometers. The final result of this is that the 800V Long Range and Ultra Long Range versions have a range of up to 720 km and 905 km. The long battery life also means that the power consumption is saved, and the lowest power consumption of the ES 720KM version is 117kWh 100km is the lowest energy consumption in the world. At the same time, the Star Era ES also adopts super fast charging technology, which can last 218km in 5 minutes and replenish 30% to 80% in 15 minutes.
Inside, the design of the Star Era ES has also been put into the design. First of all, in terms of space, thanks to the gimbal chassis, the "room rate" of the interior space of the Star Era ES is as high as 702%, the space utilization rate is quite good. According to the actual measurement, the male experiencer with a height of 180cm sits in the front row, the seat is adjusted to the lowest, and the headroom is a fist. The front seats are one-piece design, and the internal padding is moderately soft and hard, and the overall comfort is very high, and there is a certain amount of wrapping. With the front seats unchanged, the experiencer sits in the back row with one fist of headroom and more than two fists of legroom. The length of the back cushion is very reasonable, which can basically completely set off the thighs, and the middle seat floor is flat design, and the seat is more comfortable, which is quite advantageous in the same class of models.
Secondly, the Star Era ES integrated envelops the cockpit 15The 6-inch central control screen has a resolution of 25K, based on the 8155 software and hardware platform, the vehicle-machine system is the first to use the iFLYTEK Xinghuo cognitive model, using a new scenario-based interface design, which will greatly improve the intelligent attributes and learning ability of the car, and realize a variety of functions such as human-computer natural interaction, voice control, knowledge question and answer, and ** writing, so that drivers and passengers can enjoy the convenience and fun of intelligence. Epoch ES is also equipped with a Lion Melody audio system, equipped with 23 speakers, the peak power of the audio system can reach 960W, support panoramic sound effects, and the main driver's headrest speakers can realize the use experience of three different application scenarios such as full car mode, driving mode, and private mode.
After a comprehensive analysis, the performance of the Star Era ES in many aspects such as hardware, styling design, intelligence and battery life is remarkable, and after the official launch, it will undoubtedly drive the 300,000-level pure electric vehicle to a new height. Especially in terms of the "super comfort" promoted by Star Era ES, the control of details is also in place. It is no exaggeration to say that the entire chassis system of the Star Era ES is completely comparable to that of overseas million-class trams.
