Mondo Cars Updated on 2024-03-07

There is always a saying in the market: "Chinese MPV looks at Trumpchi." "That's right, feel free to search the domestic MPV sales list, and GAC Trumpchi's various MPV models are on the list. In the era of new energy, nature is no exception. An E9 that will be launched in mid-2023 once again gives people a glimpse of what is a connoisseur in the MPV industry.

We have to admit that the success of the GAC Trumpchi E9 is to a certain extent due to the help of the predecessor M8. However, we can also see from the naming that their future paths will be very different. First of all, the E9 is the first of its kind in the brand's "e" series. Relying on Trumpchi's accurate insight into the MPV market over the years, the new car hopes to enter the new energy MPV market of about 350,000 yuan and become a benchmark model by the new car hope and the four core advantages of "Ning, Jin, Zhi and Yuan". The second is the "9" naming, which is in a way higher than the previous "8" series, so we might as well take a closer look at what improvements this new car brings.

From the styling point of view, Trumpchi E9 continues the overall design style of the predecessor M8, and we get the Max version of the model that is currently the most accepted by everyone, and the front face adopts the front face design named "Kunpeng Spreading Wings" style, of course, if you like the "Chinese Lion Awakening" front face that frequently appeared on the M8 before, then E9 also provides consumers with a grandmaster version of the model. The dimensions of the new car are 5193 1893 1823 mm, the wheelbase reaches 3070 mm, and in terms of body size, the E9 and M8 belong to the same size MPV models, so people do not need to worry about its ride space.

Sitting in the car, we can feel Trumpchi's understanding of luxury and intelligence. First of all, a large number of screens appear in front of people, first the electronic instrument cluster, and then the central control screen, co-pilot entertainment screen, rear entertainment screen, etc., a total of 7 screens are used to control the intelligent and entertainment part of the vehicle. At the level of intelligent driving, the new car adopts the self-developed X3V solution, equipped with 26 auxiliary driving sensors, including 10 cameras, 12 ultrasonic radars, 4 millimeter-wave radars and parking controllers, with key functions such as route learning and preservation, route selection and management, vehicle cruise, obstacle bypassing, etc., the vehicle can achieve 1000 meters of automatic parking, providing 50+ practical scenarios such as cross-layer driving with large curvature slopes, one-key parking and storage, etc., which are convenient for users to use to the greatest extent. Not only that, but there is also a monitoring radar in the car to detect whether the vehicle has vital signs. The alarm function is realized through APP, SMS reminder, ecall, light horn, etc., and the air conditioner can also be turned on remotely to ensure a short-term safe environment in the vehicle, reflecting the humane care of the Trumpchi intelligent cockpit. With the vehicle's own 360° all-round airbag matrix (rear window airbag +3.).2m integrated side air curtain + standard one or two exhaust bags), multi-dimensional to ensure the safety of users.

Through the layout of the interior, the degree of luxury and technology

Everywhere it can be seen that Trumpchi understands Chinese consumers.

Coming to the second row of the key points, the use of semi-aniline high-grade leather fabric airline seats can immediately allow the driver to enter a comfortable state, people can also through voice or click on the armrest screen "one-key spa" function button, the seat is folded down to stretch, massage and other functions specific linkage, for the second row of occupants to create a comfortable spa luxury atmosphere, one-click to achieve a soothing experience. This is not enough, Trumpchi takes into account sensitive groups such as the elderly and children, and sets up a windless healthy air conditioner for the new car, so that the temperature change in the car is more natural and healthy, which is very intimate. For a large-size MPV, in addition to excellent ride comfort, variable space is equally important. Therefore, the new car adopts the longest two or three rows of slide rails in the same class, providing users with a changeable and flexible and comfortable riding space, the third row of seats is folded forward, and the storage space for four people is 1500 liters, which can be placed 7 28-inch + 2 24-inch luggage, so whether it is an official reception or a family trip, it can be calmly dealt with, creating a truly flexible and diverse cockpit space.

In terms of power, the Trumpchi E9 is a plug-in hybrid model, and its internal combustion engine uses the same 20t engine. The battery part of the new car adopts GMC400 electromechanical coupling system, in which the body battery uses GAC magazine battery technology, and uses a battery cell composed of low-cobalt and high-voltage NCM613 ternary material, which is coated and doped by nano-level multi-layer to improve the energy density and thermal management efficiency of the battery, and can adapt to the ultra-wide temperature range of -30 to 60, providing new energy travel services for people in cold and hot areas. Under the WLTC working condition that is closer to the actual car use scenario, the E9 has the longest comprehensive range of 1032 kilometers in its class, with a power consumption of 21 kWh per 100 kilometers and a fuel consumption of 6 per 100 kilometers05 liters, which greatly improves the efficiency of people's commuting. In our actual driving experience, we found that the E9 is not only a large MPV with good ride comfort, but also a better driving experience than the previous M8. We can choose different driving modes according to the current road conditions, the most commonly used is the intelligent hybrid mode: it can comprehensively consider factors such as vehicle speed and power for intelligent energy distribution; Then there is the pure electric priority mode: it is recommended that customers choose daily charging conveniently, and give priority to using battery power to meet driving needs; Power Retention Priority Mode: If you have power needs such as camping, in-car rest and entertainment, you can choose a higher power retention value. In addition, the NVH of the E9 should also be better, through the understanding of product information, in addition to the use of new energy tires, better interior sealing of these conventional hardware, it also adopts current harmonic optimization for the motor to reduce torque fluctuation control technology, effectively reducing the electromagnetic noise of the motor by 10dB. In terms of chassis, the new car adopts SDC intelligent variable damping electronic control suspension system, based on road conditions, vehicle status, driver intentions and other signals, collects 4,000 sets of data per second, adjusts the damping force of 4 shock absorbers and suspension in real time, realizes the adaptive matching of the vehicle to different road surfaces, improves the handling, comfort and sense of science and technology of the vehicle, and brings users a more comfortable and stable riding experience.

As with the Trumpchi M8,

Sales of the E9 in the new energy MPV camp

It is also among the best, which is enough to prove its strength.

After a comprehensive experience, the E9 once again made us feel GAC Trumpchi's professionalism in the MPV field, even in the field of new energy, it can still lead the same level of competitors in many technical aspects. Although more brands will enter the ranks of domestic new energy MPVs in the future, I believe that for a long time in the future, E9 will be a benchmark existence.
