As BYD's first million-level pure electric supercar, everyone's expectations for looking up to the U9 can be said to be full.
It is reported that Yangwang U9 will be officially launched on February 25, and the relevant configuration parameters are also in the near future, so today we will objectively talk about this long-awaited domestic supercar.
First of all, look at the appearance part, as a supercar, looking up at the U9 shape is also full of attack power, the front face is almost tapered design, using the family's "door of time and space" design language, the headlights are quite eye-catching, the front looks a little similar to the Sanxingdui mask, the Chinese style is full, at the same time, the smooth, low-lying body is also quite powerful, the proportion is similar to the mid-engine sports car, plus the carbon fiber components and huge rear wing that are standard with the whole car, it looks like a "performance beast".
Moreover, the vehicle is also equipped with 6 groups of body air duct layout and 12 groups of active and passive aerodynamic kits, which make it have the three advantages of efficient heat dissipation, ultra-low wind resistance and high downforce, and its track ability is definitely worth looking forward to.
In terms of size, the vehicle is 4966x2029x1295 (1338) mm, with a wheelbase of 2900mm, which is much larger than the Haobo SSR (wheelbase 2650mm), which is also a million-level pure electric supercar, and the aura is quite strong.
It is worth mentioning that looking up to the U9 actually has a trunk, which is still unimaginable for a supercar, and the practicality directly blows up all supercar models.
The interior part, its cockpit is basically wrapped in carbon fiber and suede, and is equipped with three-dimensional electrically adjustable seats, and it is not difficult to find through the thickness of the seat, looking up at the U9 retains a certain comfort experience, making it more daily; The car is equipped with three LCD screens, a large-size vertical screen in the middle, a full LCD instrument on the driver's side, and an entertainment screen on the co-pilot's side, but the author personally believes that the design of these screens is too square and the beautiful curve of the entire cockpit is somewhat inconsistent, and I hope that it can be adjusted later.
The power chassis part is definitely the focus of the U9 force, which is equipped with the same Yi Sifang system as the U8, the power of the four motors is driven independently, which can output more than 1300 horsepower, and the maximum Haobo SSR is 1225 horsepower, and the fastest 000 acceleration 19S, but it should be noted that the curb weight of Haobo SSR is 1990kg, while the mass of looking up to U9 has come to 2475kg, and according to relevant news, this is still not equipped with its Yun Yuan-X version, if it is equipped with Yun Yuan-X, its curb weight will exceed 25 tons, which will have a certain impact on the performance of acceleration and cornering, and it is expected that the 000 acceleration will exceed two seconds.
As for the Yun Rim-X just mentioned, it is another black technology, the technology is BYD's current highest level of body control system, it integrates all the advantages of BYD Yun Rim-A, Yun Rim-C, and Yun Rim-P, and before BYD's explosive body jump** is the use of Yun Rim-X technology to achieve, with the official sentence to summarize is: "Yun Rim-X can accurately control the body, to achieve horizontal, vertical, vertical three directions of attitude stability, taking into account control and comfort." ”
In fact, judging from the current ** data, looking up to U9 does not simply imitate the mature supercar brand, to pursue the ultimate sports and racing characteristics, on the contrary, it uses its advantages in electrification and intelligence, to open up a new track, the specific performance of looking up to U9 as a supercar, but it does not meet its own positioning of practicality, comfort and daily attributes, but in the author's opinion, this may be a feasible new path for domestic supercars.
Considering that there is still a certain gap between domestic independent brands and mature foreign racing brands, trying to innovate and differentiate strategies may be an effective way to promote domestic supercars to achieve "lane change and overtaking" in the competition.
Write at the end
In fact, when understanding the relevant information, the author has seen a lot of criticism of China's own brands to make supercars, thinking that independent brands in the absence of a hundred years of accumulation in the case of supercars, is a joke, but in the author's opinion, this is still the so-called "foreign adult" mentality, only dare to look at the level first, only have the courage and opportunity to make their own high-premium brand, first put their own country's products into a "no hundred years of accumulation, no hundred years of culture, try is a joke" context, and we will still have zero accumulation in another hundred years.
Therefore, continuous attempts, no matter what the result, are extremely valuable, every attempt, whether successful or not, is an improvement of brand value, technical strength and market awareness, these accumulated experience and lessons will pave the way for the future, can help domestic independent brands gradually narrow the gap with international brands, and finally achieve a breakthrough and rise on the global stage.
