On December 23, at Huawei's winter flagship new product conference, the huge scene, in addition to the release of mobile phones, computers and other products, is also a new car conference, Huawei officially "released" the AITO brand's first new product Q&A M5, intelligent luxury SUV. This Huawei-empowered car, equipped with HUAWEI DriveONE pure electric drive range extension platform and HarmonyOS smart cockpit, has also been gladly included in the "New Product Channel" on the official website by Huawei.
Yu Chengdong, Managing Director of Huawei, CEO of Consumer BG, and CEO of Smart Car Solutions BU, said: "Huawei focuses on the all-scenario smart life strategy, empowering the automotive industry with more than 30 years of ICT technology and leading smart travel experience, bringing the digital world to every car, and helping car companies build and sell good cars. As the latest witness to Huawei's continuous innovation and professional strength, AITO M5 will usher in a new era of smart mobility. ”
The ultimate aesthetic design
First of all, let's talk about the appearance, the M5 is remarkable in design, its body posture is very agile, the shark fin streamer lights are full of personality, the smooth curve looks like it has a sense of supercaring, and it also makes it achieve an ultra-low wind resistance of 0.32Cd. The 20-inch sail all-aluminum wheels are very atmospheric, which also gives it a little more SUV stability. The large rear window allows the rear passengers to have a good view, and the overall sense of refinement is also quite prominent. The body size of the new car is 4770*1930*1625mm, the wheelbase reaches 2880mm, with 20-inch sail all-aluminum wheels and 0.32Cd ultra-low wind resistance, which is a very typical wide-body design, which also makes it have plenty of riding space.
The interior is designed in a minimalist style, and the technical texture is overwhelming. The 10.4-inch curved full LCD instrument panel and the 15.6-inch 2K HDR intelligent central control screen directly fill the line of sight, and the panoramic canopy with a total area of about 2 square meters brings a soothing and open visual experience. There is also a panoramic canopy with a total area of about 2 square meters. Huawei also announced the transmission data of its seamless panoramic canopy, under the blessing of the industry's leading architectural-grade micron silver-plated Low-E thermal insulation glass, the M5's canopy has a field of view ratio of 97.7%, can be 99.9% isolated from ultraviolet rays, and can also increase the thermal insulation effect by 40%.
In addition, the model's all-aluminum alloy chassis with front double wishbones and rear multi-link independent suspension is also a major highlight, making it comparable to luxury cars. In addition to guaranteeing extreme handling, it can also maintain good stability and comfort. Combined with advanced precision oil cooling technology, it is possible to ensure efficient heat dissipation of the electric system.
A performance experience comparable to that of luxury cars
The M5 is equipped with the latest HUAWEI DriveONE pure electric drive range extender platform, its 1.5T four-cylinder engine as a range extender can produce 3.2 kWh of oil per liter, which can achieve 1242 km CLTC working life in the case of full oil, which can be said to solve the problem of energy replenishment anxiety. At the press conference, Huawei engineers introduced that the power generation of the range extender can reach 173kWh, plus the 40kWh of the power battery, and the total power can reach 213kWh. At that time, the kung fu car was stunned, and calculated that 173kWh should be the product of the fuel tank volume and the power generation efficiency, so it was indeed a bit excessive. However, the extended-range electric solution does meet the current national conditions. Especially like the M5, which is oilable and electric, the range extender only generates electricity in the high-efficiency range, and the motor is concentrated on driving, which not only solves the mileage anxiety, but also has an infinite driving experience close to pure electric models. The M5 has a battery capacity of 40kWh. The fuel consumption of the new WLTC under the working cycle is 0.8L/100km, and the comprehensive cruising range will exceed 1000km. The vehicle can achieve CLTC service life of 1242km when full of oil and electricity.
The M5 is equipped with a front asynchronous AC motor + a rear permanent magnet synchronous motor to form an intelligent four-wheel drive system, its peak power can reach 365kW, and it only takes 4.4 seconds to complete 0-100km/h acceleration, which is definitely comparable to the ultimate performance of supercar. It has 5 driving modes, 3 range extension modes and 4 levels of free adjustment of recovery force, which is equivalent to accurately controlling the air conditioner to the level of 0.1 degrees, which can meet the driving control details of different users' pursuit of driving control experience. Its three intelligent travel modes are very interesting, which is also the most reflective point of Huawei's technology. Pure electric priority mode can ensure the best economy, suitable for daily commuting; automatic mode will actively adjust the proportion of oil and electricity distribution, to achieve the longest endurance, suitable for holiday travel; fuel priority mode can ensure that the limit working conditions do not lose force, long time to maintain performance output.
HarmonyOS gets in the car
The biggest highlight of this car is the HarmonyOS smart cockpit. According to reports, the cockpit can bring minimalist interaction, a unified notification and control center, and efficient multi-task operation. The biggest feature of this system is to break the gap between different devices, the car machine system is no longer a single existence, but can be seamlessly circulated with mobile phones, smart watches, smart homes, etc. Super Terminal, so that the Internet of Everything no longer stays on the concept, to achieve the interconnection of car people, the interconnection of cars and homes, and the interconnection of cars and watches.
In addition, Smart Dock is an important part of the new desktop of HarmonyOS smart cockpit, actively recommending content, safety reminders, convenient services, etc. through service cards, in addition to Huawei's own applications, there are a large number of applications such as safe and good car owners, Chinese insurance, and E charging.
In addition to the above intelligent functions, others seem to be some luxurious attribute configurations, such as: 128 colors RGB infinitely adjustable intelligent induction atmosphere light, HUD head-up display, ICAS intelligent cleaning cockpit system, V2L reverse charging and first-class seats and so on.
On the intelligence of the car machine system alone, the M5 is likely to be the ceiling of the current automotive industry.
Cinema-grade audiovisual experience
The M5 is also equipped with quite a few fashionable configurations, such as HUAWEI SOUND can provide a cinema-level audio-visual experience, 15 +4 speakers such as the top configuration, with a 7.1 channel immersive sound field and active three-way technology, coupled with 1000 + W peak power, do not let the foreign brand audio system specialized in the United States; 66W wired charging and 44W wireless charging, so that everyone no longer has to worry about the slow charging speed of the car, even if it is a notebook The Q&A M5 also supports reverse output 220V AC, with the emphasis on external discharge power can reach 3500W... Camping in the wild, barbecues, hot pots are enough, there is a spectrum for long-distance travel, and the first watch has no sense car keys, and unlocks a new way to open the car door.
Huawei has been fierce in the automotive business in the past two years, and it has indeed made rapid progress. But for consumers, the automotive field is now the era of software and services "a hundred flowers", luxury configuration is also more than enough, in hardware and drive technology may be more acceptable to the old Tier1. It is hoped that the AITO Q&I M5 will be able to convince consumers with more detailed technical details during the official listing. From now on, real car demonstrations will be held in 180 Huawei stores in 42 cities, and from January 20, 2022, 500 Huawei stores in 118 cities will be opened to make test drives and reservations, and users can make reservations through the AITO official website and the "My Huawei" APP.
Now the question is: of all the products Huawei has released, who is your favorite?
