Large 6-seater SUV with extended range system, starting at 155,800 yuan.

Just now, Leapmotor's first medium and large SUV Leapmotor C16 was officially launched, and the price is very explosive, only half of the ideal L8, and the top version of the extended range is only 179,800.

A few years ago, it was hard to imagine that a car would be able to arrange Nvidia Orin-X, lidar, 800V high-voltage platform, ceiling screen, etc. at a price of less than 200,000 yuan.

People who really want to buy MPVs and SUVs are silent after reading it.

This price is considered by many people to be a loss-making business, but Zhu Jiangming, the founder of Leap, said that this is also priced according to cost. In other words, the car is profitable.

In order to show confidence in his new car, Zhu Jiangming announced at the press conference that the C16 will become his only car in the future, and he will also put several of his luxury cars up for auction. It seems that since meeting Zhou Hongyi, Zhu Jiangming has also mastered the traffic password.

01 

There is no refrigerator on the color TV sofa

From the name, it is not difficult to see that the C16 is the flagship car in the current Leapmotor product lineup, and of course it is also the largest in size.

Compared with the previous C10 and C11 five-seater cars, the seat layout of C16 adopts a 6-seat layout of 2+2+2, with a length, width and height of 4915mm*1905mm*1770mm, and a wheelbase of 2825mm.

In the 200,000 level, such a size setting is still relatively rare.

However, it is worth noting that although the C16 is the largest model in the Leapmotor family, the wheelbase is lower than that of the C11 (2930mm), and its wheelbase is the same as that of the Leapmotor C10. Therefore, the C16 is the same wheelbase, the length of the car is increased by 176mm, the width of the car is increased by 5mm, and the height of the car is increased by 90mm, so as to meet the layout needs of six seats.

In this way, although it is classified as a medium and large SUV, it is a mid-size SUV in terms of wheelbase, and it is not difficult to see that the relationship between the C16 and C10 is like the relationship between the ideal L7 and L8.

Moreover, Leapmotor C16 is also based on Leap LEAP3.0 architecture, Zhu Jiangming said at the press conference that the general rate of model parts under this platform architecture can reach 88%, which is why Leapmotor C16 can become the core reason for "price butcher".

Throw away this small groove of the wheelbase, and what remains is the "configuration feast" brought by Zero Run.

Finally used 8295

As the flagship model, the C16 continues the consistent "large volume and filling" characteristics of Leapmotor products, with a price of less than 190,000 yuan, and basically all the configurations that can be thought of.

Its interior layout is similar to that of the C10, with a 14.6-inch 2.5K high-definition floating center display and a 10.25-inch full LCD instrument cluster, and the steering wheel has a two-spoke flat-bottom design, with almost no physical buttons visible.

In terms of intelligent cockpit, Leapmotor C16 finally uses the 8295 chip, and the whole system is standard, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 chip, and an NXP S32GMCU chip, which are integrated in a module to form a central supercomputing module.

The software is equipped with Leapmotor OS intelligent vehicle machine system, which supports dual-area voice wake-up recognition, 5G network, OTA upgrade, on-board KTV and mobile APP remote control.

Of course, as a family 6-seater model, space is the top priority, the upper part of the center armrest area is a wireless charging panel, there is a relatively large storage space underneath, and behind the center armrest, there are also two cup slots for rear passengers.

The rear row has a 2+2 seat layout, the middle two seats have independent armrests, the third row adopts a sofa design, the backrest can also be adjusted by 10 degrees, and the seat cushion height is 350 mm.

Especially in the second row, a small table and a 15.6-inch ceiling screen are also installed, the resolution of the entertainment screen is 1080P, which can be interactive with the central control screen, and can be operated in multiple forms such as voice, touch, mobile phone remote control, etc., and the front and rear rows can also be projected, so that the front passengers can realize video and audio playback for the rear row.

However, it should be noted that the ceiling screen in the second row needs to be optional, and it is assembled on a 10,000 yuan full package. In addition to the rear screen, the package also includes 21-inch wheels, Yokohama Silent tires, Dolby Atmos sound effects, and music rhythm ambient lighting.

However, even if it is an optional package that requires 10,000 yuan, the total price is still less than 200,000. In addition, the front and rear seats are heated, ventilated and electrically adjustable, as well as the first and second rows of double-layer acoustic glass, a panoramic canopy, a power tailgate, rear privacy glass and three-zone independent air conditioning.

Interestingly, one of the only three pieces is missing - the car refrigerator.

Orin-X芯片+全域800V

In addition, in addition to the entry-level Zhixiang version, Leapmotor C16 also has two configuration versions, premium and intelligent driving, and there is not much difference between these two configuration models in terms of basic configuration.

In terms of active and passive safety equipment, both versions are equipped with six airbags, and also include Level 2 driver assistance systems such as active braking and front/rear collision warning. Even practical driver assistance functions such as parallel assist, automatic parking, and remote parking are standard.

The gap is mainly focused on high-end intelligent driving capabilities, and the intelligent driving version uses the configuration of NVIDIA Orin-X chip + lidar, with a computing power of 254 TOPS, and is equipped with 30 intelligent driving sensors, including 1 lidar, 5 millimeter-wave radar, 12 cameras and 12 ultrasonic radars.

With the support of 30 perception hardware, it supports ALC automatic lane change assist, TJA traffic jam assist, ATC adaptive curve cruise, NAC navigation assist cruise and NAP high-speed intelligent navigation assist.

In terms of power, Leapmotor provides two options for the C16: pure electric version and extended range version.

The pure electric version of the model is equipped with an 800V SiC high-voltage platform as standard, and it is a high-voltage component from the battery module to the electric drive controller, compressor, inverter, etc., so as to achieve a true full-range 800V, equipped with a maximum power of 215kW drive motor, equipped with a lithium iron phosphate battery pack with a capacity of 67.7kWh, CLTC pure electric range of 520 kilometers, from 30%-80% charging as fast as 15 minutes.

A few days ago, Zhu Jiangming also proudly said that this price level can be equipped with global 800V technology as standard, if you pull a model with 800V technology from low to high according to the price, Leap C16 will definitely rank first.

The extended-range version is equipped with a 1.5-liter range extender + electric motor consisting of a 1.5-liter four-cylinder extended-range engine with a maximum horsepower of 95 hp and a maximum engine output of 70 kW, as well as a motor with a maximum output of 170 kW and a lithium iron phosphate battery pack with a capacity of 28.4 kWh, with an all-electric range of 200 km and a CLTC combined range of 1,095 km.

Finally, let's take a look at the appearance of the C16, from the appearance, the C16 looks like a raised C10, and its design language is highly consistent with the Leap C10, and even the front of the car is a little indistinguishable.

The three-section headlight clusters all adopt a mainstream through-type design, while the lower surround is surrounded by longitudinal air ducts, which can not only optimize aerodynamics, but also enhance a certain sense of sportiness. The extended-range version retains the lower air intakes and enhances the style with a black trim strip.

The front and rear positions of the body also add a bulge design, there is a certain sense of muscle, the rear of the car has been combined with a number of concave and convex planes, the three-dimensional sense has been strengthened, and the taillights are also designed through the slender light strip has been blackened.

However, perhaps due to the ratio of car width to car height, the rear does not look particularly wide, but has the immediate visual feeling of an MPV.

 Why was C16 made?

Zhu Jiangming once said that the price of the top model of Leap C16 will be controlled within 200,000, and at that time, most people thought that it was like the regular operation of car companies, and the price was stuck at 199,000.

Unexpectedly, Leap came directly to the big one, less than 190,000 top-of-the-line pure electric intelligent driving version to everyone's surprise.

The purpose of the launch of Leapmotor C16 is also very obvious, which is to seize the market with the ultimate cost performance. First of all, the ideal L8, which is also a range extender and a 6-seater model.

However, rather than being compared with the 6-seater version of the ideal L8, the 5-seater SUV - the ideal L7, which is actually a smaller level, is closer to the positioning of the Leap C16.

The ideal L7 vehicle has a length, width and height of 4925x1960x1735mm and a wheelbase of 2920mm, which is slightly larger than that of Leap C16. However, Leap makes up for the gap in configuration.    

In front of all brands and configurations, price is the biggest killer move, Leap C16 is like a combination of volume king + price butcher, after all, in the price range of 15-200,000, it seems difficult to find a model that can match the space, configuration and power.

As for why we want to build a 6-seater model like Leap C16, Zhu Jiangming once said, "The 6-seat SUV market we have seen has long been dominated by the high price range of more than 250,000 yuan. In the range of less than 200,000, there has been a lack of a cost-effective model that truly meets the needs of consumers in the market. ”

Indeed, judging from the current market, the price range below 200,000 and 6-seater models seem to be a blank market, and many car companies may hesitate because of the cost.

At this time, the advantages of Leaprun's self-research have emerged, and through technology cost reduction, Leaprun has continuously lowered prices. According to the latest data, the strategy of Leap Cheap Big Bowl has begun to bear fruit, with a total sales of 67,000 units in January ~ May this year, an increase of 112.8% compared with the same period in 23.

Its cumulative sales have become the third place in the new power camp, with a total of more than 18,000 units delivered in May, and nearly 12,000 units of the C11 and C10 models were delivered.

With the arrival of hundreds of thousands of Leap C16, will Leaprun have another hit?
