Easy car originalAt the end of last year, the much-anticipated Star Journey Star Era ES was officially launched at a price of 2258-33.980,000 yuan, and recently, Xingtu has launched a price of 19880,000 yuan of the Star Era es Guochao version of the model, at the same time, the first 10,000 owners can also get a cash red envelope of 20,000 yuan for the whole system (excluding the Guochao version), which once again improves the cost performance of the model. In this positioning level, there are outstanding players such as ZEEKR 001, ZEEKR 007 and NIO ET5, but how will Star Era ES stand out from the encirclement?
Ceiling-level configuration at this level
In terms of modeling, the Star Era ES adopts the styling concept of wind aesthetics, sci-fi and smart, and the trendy through-type light strip and LED headlights are also standard for the whole system, in addition, the wing-type ISD intelligent interactive lamp expresses emotions at the same time, but also reflects the charm of science fiction.
The E0X platform of Epoch ES is a new car series built with Chery's 26 years of technology development experience, global resources, and a cost of 10 billion yuan, with a body drag coefficient as low as 0205cd, ranking third in the world for current production models.
The design of the rear of the new car is simple, with continuous taillights and interactive light language design. In addition, the Epoch ES also has a "Wind Pilot" electric rear wing, equipped with a two-speed adjustment function, which takes into account both visual effect and aerodynamic performance.
The interior cockpit design of the vehicle adopts the Galaxy AI concept, and the overall embracing shape creates an immersive and comfortable atmosphere. The instrument panel adopts a large area of soft wrapping, and the through-type 256-color crystal atmosphere lamp design is also ingenious.
The new car is equipped with 8The 2-inch LCD instrument cluster is 15 for the central controlThe 6-inch super-large LCD screen, the system is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip, and has a Lion AI large-scale model voice assistant, which can continue to learn and evolve independently, and the voice interaction experience is more excellent.
The whole car is equipped with Nappa leather seats, and features such as double-stream three-zone intelligent air conditioning, large panoramic sunroof, 50W wireless charging for mobile phones, and Lion Melody immersive 23 speakers are all extraordinary manifestations of internal strength.
The Epoch ES is equipped with a gimbal chassis, IAS intelligent air suspension and CDC electromagnetic damping system as standard, and the entry-level model is equipped with opposite-direction four-piston front brake calipers, while the top-of-the-line model has opposite-direction six-piston front brake calipers, comparable to supercars.
The front suspension of the vehicle is a high-end double wishbone structure, and the rear suspension is a five-link structure, which balances comfort and performance. The wheelbase of the Epoch ES reaches 3000mm, and its minimum turning radius can be achieved to 57m, and a rear-wheel steering version will be introduced at a later date, which will also get a smaller turning radius.
The Epoch ES is built on the main 800V electrical platform, which can achieve a charging efficiency of 5 minutes and a range of 218km, and can charge the battery from 30% to 80% in 15 minutes, and has 117kWh 100km global ultra-low energy consumption. The 4WD Ultra Performance Edition accelerates from 0 to 100 km h with a time of 37S, and the high-end model also has L2+ level driving assistance, automatically up and down the high-speed ramp, worry-free and safe.
The strongest competitiveness in the same class
At present, in this positioning, there are pioneers such as ZEEKR 001 and NIO ET5, as well as ZEEKR 007, which has just been listed. First of all, for ZEEKR 001 and NIO ET5, the starting prices are 300,000 yuan and 29 yuan respectively80,000 yuan, which is more expensive than the Star Era ES, and according to my analysis, the Star Era ES Max Long Endurance Edition is the most worthwhile model to buy, with its 26The guide price of 980,000 yuan has a great advantage, not to mention that you can now enjoy the 20,000 yuan red envelope courtesy, which is more obvious.
Star Era ES and ZEEKR 001 are both medium and large cars, with almost the same size, while NIO ET5 is a medium-sized car, and under the premise of ** higher, it suffers in size. The design of several cars is remarkable, and they are all taken out in the current new energy market.
Comparing the Epoch ES Max long-range version with the entry-level versions of ZEEKR 001 and NIO ET5, the interior configuration and design materials of the three cars are basically at the same level. The car machine system is also equipped with 8155 chips, combined with the price, it is still more cost-effective for the Star Era ES.
In terms of cruising range, the Epoch ES Max long-range version and the entry-level version of the Zeekrypton 001 are both 700km+, and the NIO ET5 is only 560km. In terms of power, the single-motor Star Era ES Max long-range version has a 0-100km h acceleration score of 56s, better than the ZEEKR 001 entry version, slower than the NIO ET5 entry version is dual motors, but it is also very fast. In terms of chassis, the ceiling configuration of the Star Era ES is also absent from the other two cars. The three cars are currently L2 level of driving assistance, of course, the Star Era ES Max long-range version requires an optional package to achieve the up and down functions of high-speed ramps, the same as the Zeekrypton 001, and the NIO ET5 is equipped with high-speed navigation assistance as standard in the whole system.
In fact, in terms of comprehensive capabilities, the entry-level models of ZEEKR 001 and NIO ET5 are obviously at a disadvantage compared to the Star Era ES Max long-range version, and at the same time, they are not superior, at least for now, Star Era ES is very competitive compared with the ** models.
ZEEKR 007 is priced at 2099-29.990,000 yuan, in terms of crowd positioning, Star Era ES is more biased towards the mainstream population in the current market, and its age distribution is also more extensive, while the positioning of ZEEKR 007 is almost a pure young group, and the applicability is not as wide as Star Era ES.
Also priced at 26The 980,000 yuan Star Era ES Max long-range version is an example, corresponding to a price of 22990,000 yuan of ZEEKR 007 rear-drive intelligent driving version, and after the 20,000 yuan discount of Star Era ES, there is only a price difference of about 20,000 yuan. For the Star Era ES, it enjoys a lifetime warranty for the whole vehicle, three-electric system, air suspension and CDC electromagnetic shock absorption system, while Zeekrypton 007 only enjoys a lifetime warranty for the three-electric system, and the vehicle is a 6-year or 150,000 km warranty. In addition, the Star Era ES is a gift of home charging piles and line installation within 100m, while the ZEEKR 007 charging pile needs to be purchased as an option, and only contains 30M lines, therefore, Star Era ES is equivalent to an additional discount of 4500 yuan.
Because ZEEKR 007 belongs to the positioning of a medium-sized car, compared with the Star Era ES, its volume and data are smaller, and it does not look as atmospheric as the Star Era ES, spending the same money, and the body size and interior space are the advantages of the Star Era ES.
In terms of chassis configuration, all ZEEKR 007 systems are also not equipped with air suspension and CDC electromagnetic shock absorption system. In addition, we also noticed that the front wheels of the low-profile models of ZEEKR 007 use floating brake calipers, which is still quite a gap with the Star Era ES in terms of visual effect and braking performance.
Editor's Comments:From the competitiveness analysis, it can be seen that the advantages of the Star Era ES for the same level or even more advanced new energy models are still obvious, its styling and internal and external configuration for the current market of the same level, is basically a ceiling existence, and the 800V platform and the full range of air suspension and CDC electromagnetic shock absorption system, so that this Star Era ES is enough to benchmark the new energy models with higher prices. So, combined with its price, it's really very attractive, and if I'm a consumer and I'm holding 300,000 yuan, the Star Era ES is definitely my first choice at the moment.
