As the saying goes, "those who get middle-class cars win the world", in the era of fuel vehicles, it is undoubtedly that Passat, Magotan, Accord, Camry, Teana and other joint venture medium-sized cars occupy a dominant position in the market, but with the development of domestic new energy technology, our own brand has gradually gained the right to speak in this segment.
Just like what we said today, Geely Galaxy E8 and Leap C01 are both models with excellent product power, the former focuses on China's new generation of pure electric flagship, and the latter is out of the circle with "** butcher". So as a consumer, should you choose Geely Galaxy E8 or Leap C01?
Let's look at the appearance first, as the third model of Geely Galaxy, Geely Galaxy E8 continues the concept of "ripple aesthetics" design of the Galaxy sequence, with a tiger-like front face with a sharp shape, and the embellishment of the "ripple of light" rhythm grille makes the vehicle quite recognizable.
The most worth mentioning is that the front face of Geely Galaxy E8 can also show a variety of luminous effects such as welcome and farewell, left and right flowing water, jumping flowing water, ** show, etc., which can instantly enhance the sense of science and technology of the vehicle after being lit.
From the side, the Geely Galaxy E8 adopts the classic fastback shape of the coupe, which is officially called the "tiger body", coupled with the slender, low body and frameless doors, making the vehicle full of dynamics. This also brings 0The ultra-low drag coefficient of 199cd can effectively reduce the power consumption of the whole vehicle. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the Geely Galaxy E8 are 5010 1920 1465 mm, and the wheelbase is 2925mm, positioning it as a medium and large pure electric sedan.
In terms of the tail, Geely Galaxy E8 adopts the official design, which is called "altar wing tail", with a very good sense of hierarchy and refinement, with through-type taillights, which makes the vehicle more youthful and dynamic.
The appearance of Leap C01 is mainly concise, the fully enclosed front face is equipped with a large area of trapezoidal air intake, which is quite recognizable, and the through-type daytime running lights are connected to the headlight group, which effectively stretches the horizontal visual width of the vehicle and makes the front face look more atmospheric. However, compared with the Geely Galaxy E8, the fashion sense of the Leap C01 is not outstanding.
From the side, the body lines of the Leap C01 are soft and stretched, and the body is relatively slender, with a fastback roof design and frameless doors, which brings a good sporty atmosphere to the vehicle. However, it has a drag coefficient of 0226cd, aerodynamic design is not as good as Geely Galaxy E8. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of Leap C01 are 5050 1902 1509 mm, and the wheelbase is 2930mm, which is almost the same as Geely Galaxy E8, and it is also positioned as a medium and large pure electric car.
Looking at the tail again, the blackened taillight group adopts a through-type design, echoing the front face, and the internal integration is a dot matrix LED light source, which is also very recognizable after lighting, and the slightly upturned ducktail with the diffuser shape surrounds it, which also effectively increases the sporty atmosphere of the vehicle.
In terms of interior, the overall look of the Geely Galaxy E8 adopts a yacht-enveloping cockpit layout design, and the layout is quite simple. And the most eye-catching thing is that Geely Galaxy E8 is equipped with the world's first 45-inch 8K ultra-wide large screen, with a length of 1157 meters, full of visual impact, and equipped with more powerful computing power Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 chip, built-in Galaxy N OS-Unbounded version of the car machine system, in the "Flyme Link", "Star Wisdom Computing Center" two super brains, it can be linked with Meizu 21, to achieve three-finger task flow, address flow on the car and other intelligent functions, instantly full of cockpit science and technology.
Compared with Geely Galaxy E8, Leap C01 is also relatively simple, but there is no large screen design, and the entire center console consists of 1025-inch LCD instrument cluster, 128-inch central control screen and 1025Inch co-pilot entertainment screen,Coupled with the popular electronic pocket gear,It also creates a good sense of science and technology,At the same time,With the blessing of Qualcomm8155 chip,It also makes the built-in LEAPMOTOR OS intelligent interaction system run smoothly,The co-pilot entertainment screen is also pre-installed with a third-party audio and video APP,So that the co-pilot passengers will not be so bored during the journey。 However, in terms of visual perception, the Geely Galaxy E8 is more shocking and futuristic.
In terms of power, Geely Galaxy E8 provides two versions, rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive, of which the rear-wheel drive version has a maximum power of 200kW, a peak torque of 343N·m, and a 000 acceleration of up to 5In 95 seconds, the maximum power of the four-wheel drive version is 475kW, the peak torque is 710Nm, and the acceleration from zero to 100 can reach 349 seconds, it is worth mentioning that the turning radius of the Geely Galaxy E8 is also only 562m, the smallest in the same class, greatly improves the handling flexibility of the vehicle.
In terms of battery life and charging, the rear-wheel drive version of Geely Galaxy E8 has two types of battery life to choose from: 550km and 665km, and it takes 28 minutes to charge from 10% to 80%, reaching the mainstream level of the same level, while the pure electric range of the four-wheel drive version is 620km, and is equipped with an 800V high-voltage silicon carbide fast charging platform, which can charge the power from 10% to 80% in only 18 minutes, which greatly guarantees the user's energy replenishment efficiency and bids farewell to battery life and charging anxiety.
In terms of chassis, the Geely Galaxy E8 is a model based on the SEA intelligent pure electric architecture, and the suspension adopts a combination of front MacPherson and rear five-link independent suspension, with a test score of 82km h Elk and 1The maximum lateral acceleration of 01G is enough to prove the strength of Geely Galaxy E8 chassis handling.
Leap C01 and Geely Galaxy E8 are roughly the same in terms of model distribution, and also have two power versions of rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive, of which the maximum power of the rear-wheel drive version is 200kW, the peak torque is 360N·m, and the fastest 000 acceleration can reach 72 seconds, but compared with the Geely Galaxy E8 rear-wheel drive version, it is still a lot slower. The four-wheel drive version has a maximum power of 400kW and a peak torque of 720Nm, and can accelerate from zero to 100 to 43 seconds, which is also inferior to the four-wheel drive version of the Geely Galaxy E8.
In terms of range and charging, the rear-wheel drive version of the Leapmotor C01 has three endurance versions of 525km, 606km and 717km, while the four-wheel drive version has a range of 630km. All systems are not equipped with an 800V high-voltage fast charging platform, and it takes about 40 minutes to charge from 30% to 80%, so the energy replenishment efficiency of Leap C01 is not as good as that of Geely Galaxy E8.
In terms of chassis, Leap C01 adopts a combination of front double wishbone rear five-link independent suspension, which is much more luxurious than the front MacPherson suspension of Geely Galaxy E8, but the handling not only depends on the materials used but also depends on the tuning.
In terms of configuration, we have selected the lowest configuration of the two models to highlight their respective advantages, and the official guide price is 17The 580,000 yuan Geely Galaxy E8 550KM Pro version and the official guide price is 14980,000 yuan 2023 Leap C01 525 Comfort Edition.
The main advantages of Geely Galaxy E8 are: fatigue driving reminder, sentry mode, built-in dash cam, one-pedal mode, transparent chassis, Bluetooth key, active closed grille, external discharge, heated rearview mirrors, Huawei HICAR, Qualcomm 8295 chip, rear cup holder, air conditioning temperature zone control, and PM2 in the car5. Filtration device, vehicle-mounted KTV, etc.
The main advantages of Leapmotor C01 are: lane keeping, full-speed adaptive cruise, lane departure warning, active braking, forward collision warning, road traffic sign recognition, steep hill descent, rear privacy glass, etc.
Through comparison, we can find that although Geely Galaxy E8 is 2 higher than Zero Run C01**60,000 yuan, but only in terms of intelligent driving, it lags behind Leap C01, and in other aspects, it is better than Leap C01. More than 20,000 yuan, not only can users have a higher battery life, comfort and convenience of using the car, but also more excellent. Moreover, it can be seen from the official time-limited preferential policy that the car is ordered within a certain period of time, Geely Galaxy E8 550km Pro version can be given free L2 level intelligent driving assistance function and heat pump air conditioning, then, compared with the optional Geely Galaxy E8, Leap C01 In addition to **, there is basically no advantage at all.
Uncle Che concluded. On the whole, although Geely Galaxy E8 is higher than Zero Run C01, but in terms of design, interior, power, etc., it can reflect the value of Geely Galaxy E8, coupled with Geely's brand advantages, quality and after-sales will be more guaranteed. Although Leapmotor C01 is very powerful, as a new force in car manufacturing, the quality of Leapmotor under the OEM mode will be somewhat flawed and insufficient, and at the same time, in the long run, after-sales maintenance will inevitably be worrying.
