Experience Guangzhou Automobile New Energy Aion LX, “new forces” concept of traditional car prices

Author: Heavens cool

Aion LX as a second model of Guangzhou Automobile New Energy Aion series, is currently the serial flagship model, with breakthrough 600km (NEDC conditions) of endurance performance, from the date of listing a large number of users to get attention.

In addition, it is also based on the second vehicle GEP 2.0 special pure electric platform, also equipped with Guangzhou Automobile New Energy AI 2.0 system products.

together with Guangzhou Automobile’s first new energy vehicles Aion S from April 2019 listing, the annual total sales of 32,126, ranking its own brand new energy compact car sales ranking third, let me on Guangzhou Automobile new energy and this Aion LX filled with hope.

Today we do not talk about the platform, do not talk sounds term on the tall, from a practical point of view and so convenient to see how Aion LX performance.

the full sense of luxury, convenience of the system should be improved

In recent years, the automotive industry, “four modernizations” process faster. Especially intelligent and network-linked, not only is the development trend of the industry, but also the demands of consumers.

and new energy vehicles is the “four modernizations” upgrade forerunner, Guangzhou Automobile Group repairer despite years of experience, but Aion LX can see this car made “new forces” car concepts and technologies for the design of a bold attempt.

from Aion S fuel to the high-end car Aion LX, even Guangzhou Automobile Group, the design of dual 12.3 inches screen has become a family-owned Guangzhou Automobile interior design style.

plus positioning Aion LX flagship model and the price of materials used in the cabin are also leather and suede leather package, a sense of luxury and technological sense full. Center console with sleek lines to outline the shape, looked full, but distinct layering.

Aion LX12.3 inch screen in the control block to the main screen slightly deflected drive side using a cold bending process 12deg ;,Build, shape is very eye-catching, but also to facilitate the driver to read the information or manipulate them.

high screen finesse, coupled with UI design is very beautiful, color matching is not pompous, the screen can be well integrated into the center console, the overall feeling is very strong.

The main interface leftmost “Return”, “main screen”, “Menu” button integrated DOCK three columns arranged from nearest driver the left position easy to operate, this is to give the praise. On both sides of the lower region is the air conditioning control, since the air conditioner is partitioned, the control buttons are in a layout where the nearest driver and front passenger position, to use very smoothly.

screen brightness adjustment, sound adjustment, focus, Bluetooth and other functions are provided on pull-down menu at the top, with the operation similar to the smart phone, and also integrates the functions of the switch driver assistance systems.

is the intermediate field of view of the card design feature page, the user can customize the display information according to a desired and order. Based on the amount of information displayed on this screen can be increased quite a bit, and can be used as a shortcut, this would have given acclaimed.

the right of the field of view may display the navigation information, and the display information is very rich, almost daily use on again without a separate navigation interface.

and the system is also obvious deficiencies, the first point is the learning system cost is relatively high, some features set hidden deeper.

For example, when playing audio phone, we need to connect a Bluetooth, this step by the drop-down menu in the Bluetooth control keys can be achieved, more convenient.

However, in the process of handover source, I find a full five minutes, this function is integrated in the APP QQ music, and the music is locally at the interface of this logic operation my not agree .

In addition, Aion LX vehicle computer system also makes me feel “not smart”, thatCustomizable downloadable APP almost no in-app store does not support third-party software is installed, only two official application.

In my opinion, at this stage in each of APP function relative to the vertical, in particular content type APP, it’s like our cell phones and listen to audio software might have three of four different individual responsible for APP and distribution of copyright content areas of different content, so that we have a more complete user experience.

and in the vehicle computer system, relatively closed software management, will make our experience affected. Provides third-party applications not only to highlight the extent to optimize the system, but also to meet the different habits of users, this is the direction of intelligent vehicle computer optimized product experience.

The third disadvantage is that the interactive voice system. Tencent to create a car with the vehicle system based on the functionality of voice-controlled nature is not a problem, such as control windows, skylights identify conversion, natural language is no problem, for example, it does not need to say rigid air-conditioning temperature down once, just to say “I am a little hot” to reduce the air temperature.

The question is the degree of accuracy of speech recognition, compared to the same level of the car system still has some gaps. For example, I said, “I was a little cold,” but recognition system has become “I am a little hot,” recognition accuracy yet to be upgraded in the video.

line of sight to the dashboard, Aion LX provides three kinds of interface themes (theme colors follow-drive mode change).

down using three distinct themes both UI design and create a sense of technology, or show the richness of information, the performance is very good.

in terms of a comprehensive, Aion LX car in the design, UI design and system definition of vehicle computer systems, I have been very positive.

But on the convenience and functionality for specific performance of human-computer interaction point still has not a small improvement space.

remarkable endurance performance

In addition to the pursuit of intelligent, optimistic or concern for Aion LX friend, must be the most concerned about this car cruising performance, after all, the market NEDC condition mileage models a minority of more than 600 km, while Aion LX exactly one of them.

First to explain to the basic information Aion LX this battery system, the entire system now Aion LX are mounted three yuan lithium-ion battery, the battery capacity models 60 (503km mileage life conditions the NEDC) of 70 kWh, 70 paragraph (NEDC condition mileage 520km) to 73 kWh. 80, paragraph

(NEDC 650km mileage life conditions), 80D and 80D Max under paragraph (600km mileage life conditions the NEDC) battery capacity are 93 kWh.

this our test vehicle, the version of 80D. I will be driving it and two kinds of highway driving conditions in urban areas (not on the loop), in order to clearly see this Aion LX power consumption performance in different conditions.

First, let’s look at the conditions of urban life performance.

before the endurance test began, this time I will Subtotal mileage cleared. In the Beijing area drove nearly two hours (about 10 degrees outside issues), show little mileage traveled 46 kilometers, though the remaining mileage of 457 kilometers.

This section of road tests, the total mileage of 46 kilometers, I set off in the evening peak weekday (affected by the epidemic, traffic usually much better), conditions are basically 95 percentage open, 5 percentage congestion.

for the ECO mode driving mode of the vehicle, is not turned on I-Pedal (single-pedal mode), air-conditioning temperature is 23 to 25 degrees, the air volume of the first speed (minimum), a manned, substantially as we fully simulate the circumstances of the morning rush hour commute to work.

actual performance, starting when I was clearing the subtotal mileage, table significant remaining mileage of 520 kilometers, after traveling 46 kilometers, the table significant remaining mileage is 457 km .

In other words, this car is actually traveling 46 kilometers, 63 kilometers away mileage, power-down ratio (actual mileage: Mileage consumption) reached about 1: 1.36.

For this evening peak urban roads, this car’s performance is in line with my expectations. Of course, this is also the current and the temperature is getting warmer relationship plus the road is clear, the level of power consumption is accumulated drive 23.2KWh / 100km, the performance of such data, on this mid-sized SUV is already a good result.

In addition, we are most concerned about the electric car to run fast, I also did a test for everyone.

Following the adoption of high-speed ticket gate, I once again cleared the subtotal mileage, test results show that the actual travel 69 kilometers, 107 kilometers off the mileage, power-down ratio of about 1: 1.55.

at an average speed of 110km / h high-speed traffic, such endurance performance, I think it is acceptable, after all, pure electric vehicles in high-speed conditions, due to the physical properties, down itself It will be faster.

but the performance of integrated power consumption is 22.7 KWh / 100km, even lower than in urban areas road conditions, and inconsistent with the actual power-down ratio, so this table Aion LX significant power consumption and less accurate.

so comprehensive in terms of, for this Aion LX 80D models, NEDC condition Mileage 600 kilometers, according to the actual power-down ratio calculation, everyday driving the actual mileage of at least about 420 kilometers.

For this performance, using it these days, obviously feeling a lot of small range anxiety for friends no private charging pile, choose this mileage as long as possible models, it would be a good s Choice.

To summarize, Aion LX exterior and interior design of luxury enough, worthy of their price, Guangzhou Automobile Chi Chuan is also a director, but the maturity of the vehicle computer system includes sophisticated user experience for also worth upgrading.

by this car, in fact, it reflects well the current independent brands and joint venture brands, in the face of new energy “big step” era, different reactions made.

and iterative speed from product launches, brand truly independent joint venture one step ahead, turn overtaking quite mean. However, although the joint venture brand product launch speed a bit late, but the user experience and maturity are satisfactory.

still look forward to our own brand while maintaining its own style, there are more and more sophisticated systems, the user experience excellent new energy product launches. [END]
