On January 25, the all-new BMW 5 Series was officially launched in China, with a total of 12 models launched, setting off another boom in the luxury car market. It is worth mentioning that as a rookie in the industry, AVATR 12, which is jointly supported by Changan, Huawei, and CATL, is known as the "disruptor" of the luxury car market. Both models undoubtedly have strong product power, and if you had to choose between them, who would be more attractive?
The first impression of the exterior design is very important, and the design style of the AVATR 12 and BMW 5 Series is also very different. As a medium and large car, AVATR 12 adopts a GT coupe shape, which perfectly integrates minimalism and luxury, with a butterfly wing front face and no rear porthole design, and the optional HALO screen, electronic exterior mirrors, as well as standard hidden door handles and frameless doors, etc., also further enhance the sense of science fiction and futurism. The all-new BMW 5 Series still continues the family-oriented design style, the iconic kidney grille and angel eye headlights highlight its identity and status, the rear design of the coupe brings a strong sporty style, and the front face is equipped with a BMW ring light grille, so that the vehicle can be seen at a glance when driving at night, with a sense of sportiness and power. In contrast, AVATR 12 has a stronger sense of science fiction as a whole, as if it was a model driven from a movie, and it will surely be more popular with young people.
Intelligence is the strength of AVAT12,With the blessing of Huawei technology,AVAT12Equipped with HarmonyOS cockpit4.0, not only can realize the real interconnection of all things, but also bring a better human-vehicle interaction experience, the operation of the car machine is silky, taking into account the functionality and entertainment. In contrast, the BMW iDrive system equipped with the BMW 5 Series still has a big gap compared with the AVATR 12 in terms of user experience, operation fluency, voice recognition, entertainment, etc.
In terms of intelligent driving, AVATR 12 is equipped with 3 lidars as standard, the vehicle has stronger perception ability, and the upper limit of intelligent driving will be higher, Huawei high-end intelligent driving ADS 20 can also realize a number of high-end intelligent driving functions such as urban NCA and high-speed NCA, automatic parking, lane keeping assistance, etc., so that many novice drivers fall in love at first sight. However, the strength of BMW 5 Series in intelligent driving is not eye-catching, there is no LiDAR configuration in hardware, and it is still equipped with some relatively basic auxiliary functions, compared with AVATR 12, the driving experience is much worse.
Overall, as a rookie brand in China's new energy market, AVATR 12 undoubtedly has a very strong advantage, and even has the strength to be on a par with the old luxury model BMW 5 Series, especially in terms of intelligent cockpit and intelligent driving assistance, and even surpasses the BMW 5 Series in an all-round way. If you want to choose one or the other, you might want to consider this model.
