Globally, the new energy vehicle market is experiencing unprecedented growth and change. With the improvement of environmental awareness and the support for clean energy, consumer demand for electric vehicles is gradually increasing. In this trend, the pickup truck market has gradually ushered in new challenges and opportunities. The emergence of new energy pickup trucks such as Tesla's Cybertruck and Geely Radar RD6 has injected new vitality into this traditional field, among which the two-wheel drive radar RD6 and the upcoming four-wheel drive Changan Hunter have become the two major focuses in the market. In the case that the radar RD6 crushes the market with its pure electric power advantages and comprehensive product performance, how much market space can Changan Hunter have?
First of all, let's look at the comprehensive strength of the radar RD6 as a pure electric pickup. In terms of power performance, the radar RD6 has obvious advantages as a two-wheel drive pure electric product, and its single motor can achieve 6The 9s accelerated from zero to 100 and reached a top speed of 185 km h. On the other hand, the Changan Hunter, although it is a four-wheel drive dual-motor model, has an acceleration time of 7 per 100 kilometersIn 9s, the top speed is only 160 km h, which is completely downwind.
In terms of endurance performance, Changan Hunter claims that it has a pure electric range of 180 kilometers under CLTC working conditions, and a comprehensive cruising range of 1031 kilometers. Moreover, as the charging of pure electric pickup trucks becomes more and more convenient, there is also no anxiety about battery life, and there is little difference between the two in terms of use experience. In addition, the Hunter consumes more than 22 degrees of power per 100 kilometers, and the actual pure electric range is only more than 100 kilometers.
What's more, the radar RD6 greatly reduces the cost of use and has a high economy, which is completely incomparable with the Changan Hunter. According to calculations, the radar RD6 costs only 8 cents per kilometer, while the Hunter costs 06 yuan, the driving cost is about 6 times that of the radar RD7.
As a new energy model, both the radar RD6 and the Changan Hunter are equipped with an external discharge function that traditional fuel vehicles do not have, but there is a world of difference in external discharge capacity. The maximum power of the radar RD6 all-scenario intelligent discharge reaches 6kW, and it supports parking, locking the car, especially the discharge outside the driving, which can easily replenish the power of drones, outdoor electric off-road motorcycles, etc., plus the large battery pack capacity, it can be called an outdoor artifact. The external discharge power of the Chang'an Hunter is only 33kw, and the use of a range extender to generate electricity is no different from using an ordinary generator to generate electricity.
As Geely's first native electric pickup truck, the Radar RD6 has attracted much attention from the beginning of its release. Its strong power performance, superior endurance and convenient charging experience make it quite eye-catching in the minds of consumers. At the same time, the radar RD6 also has excellent performance in driving comfort and intelligent technology, becoming a leader in the new energy pickup market.
In contrast, the Changan Hunter, as an upcoming four-wheel drive extended-range pickup, faces certain challenges. First of all, compared with pure electric vehicles, the advantages of range extender models in energy saving and environmental protection are small, and it is difficult to form a direct competitive advantage with pure electric vehicles. Secondly, although the extended-range models have advantages in terms of cruising range and charging convenience, with the continuous improvement of charging infrastructure and the advancement of battery technology, the advantages of pure electric models will gradually become prominent, and the market space of extended-range models may be squeezed to a certain extent.
It can be seen that even if the Changan Hunter is listed, it will not be able to shake the leading position of the radar RD6 in the new energy pickup market, and consumers will not pay for it if the old technology hits the new market. What's more, Geely Radar recently officially announced a new four-wheel drive product - radar horizon, and its performance parameters have ushered in a huge improvement, and Chang'an Hunter can be described as "eliminated when listed". The radar horizon can accelerate to 4 seconds, the maximum climb can reach 95%, the maximum wading depth of 815mm surpasses that of the Hummer EV, the maximum rated load of 865kg is industry-leading, and the industry's first 21kW full-scene external discharge function is also unique in the world. What's more worth mentioning is that while the radar horizon has super product power, it also has the unique economy of pure electric pickup, saving a Great Wall gun in 3 years.
All in all, the pure electric pickup truck represented by the radar RD6, as the ultimate solution for new energy pickups, surpasses traditional fuel pickup trucks in terms of power performance, passenger comfort, external discharge, and cost of use, and at the same time comprehensively crushes the Changan Hunter with extended range, leading the development of China's pickup industry.
