With the technological innovation of the industry, the track of extended-range new energy vehicles is heating up, and the extended-range technology is becoming a new choice for more and more new power car companies. Nowadays, in the field of domestic brands, the Star Era ET, Wenjie M7, and Ideal L6 have also been rated as the three masterpieces of extended-range SUVs by netizens. These three models have their own merits, among which the Star Era ET has won the favor of consumers with its golden range extension system and the strength of the "five super" all-round products. Today, we will take a look at this car from the aspects of battery life, safety, comfort, space, intelligent driving, and price range.
It is also a range extension, what is the power of gold range extension?
Consumers pay for the extended range, and what they value is the technical travel solution it brings, which can be fueled and electric, and can achieve lower fuel consumption and longer mileage, which also has higher requirements for technical heritage. As we all know, the range extender car mainly relies on the engine as a range extender to drive the generator to generate electricity, an excellent engine is the basis for the quality of the range extension technology, Chery has won the "China Heart" top ten for many times, and has been in the leading position in the industry in the attainment of the engine. It is reported that the thermal efficiency of the extended-range special engine of the Epoch ET has reached 44.5%, the highest in the industry, achieving the best electric large SUV within 500,000 yuan, and refreshing the value of China's high-end new energy SUV to a new height. According to the evaluation of the professional media at the previous core media test drive, the Star Era ET is still highly praised, with sufficient power, ultra-quiet and other characteristics, the engine rated power of 115kW, at any time according to the needs of users, to provide a steady stream of power reserves, that is, on demand, the maximum speed can reach 195km/h, and the high speed does not stall. In addition, the lower operating speed, combined with engine noise and vibration control technology, ensures that the range extender works without induction.
The Star Era ET is available in two power forms. Among them, the extended range version claims to have "golden range extension" technology, which brings a new solution to the market and effectively solves everyone's previous concerns about fuel consumption, reduced feed power and high noise of the extended range vehicle. In addition, it is fuel-efficient enough when feeding. The fuel consumption of the Epoch ET is as low as 5.2L/100km, which is much lower than that of competing models, and one liter of fuel can generate 3.65 kWh.
It is worth mentioning that the ET range extender version has successfully completed the "one tank of fuel" extreme endurance challenge under the condition of closed refueling and power supply ports, and the efficient range extender system can charge the battery through the fuel engine after the power is exhausted, thereby extending the vehicle's cruising range. Finally, it achieved an ultra-long range of 2,141.4 kilometers, setting a new record for China's new energy SUV.
The strength of the "five super" products protects the user's travel in all dimensions
As a strategic model that integrates Chery's spire technology, the Epoch ET equipped with the original high-end electric platform E0X not only has "super battery life", but also integrates the five all-round product strengths of "super safety", "super comfort", "super driving control" and "super intelligence", refreshing the value of China's high-end new energy SUV to a new height.
In terms of "super safety", Epoch ET inherits Chery Group's 27 years of deep car-making accumulation. Relying on Chery's world-class safety development system, Epoch ET is equipped with more than 20 active safety technologies, and has achieved the global NCAP five-star safety standard and NESTA six-dimensional electrical safety certification. In terms of battery safety in the new energy era, Epoch ET meets the 1+8+1 battery high safety system, the first 1 represents the ultimate cell safety, 8 represents the double super waterproof, extreme heat protection, super anti-collision and ultimate high-voltage safety, and the latter 1 represents the big data monitoring full-time early warning platform. Epoch ET also won the "NESTA Six-Dimensional Electrical Safety" certification issued by the China Automotive Center, becoming the first pure electric SUV model in the industry to obtain this certificate.
"Super comfortable" is the starting point established since the establishment of Xingtu Star Era. The comfortable seats of Epoch ET are made of ten layers of top materials, Nuprima micro-velvet matte leather, velvet-like texture, and at the same time ventilated, heated, massaged, and lumbar support. There are also 16-way electric float zero-gravity seats for the co-pilot, a Lion Melody master sound system, and the only star-moving bar in the same class.
In terms of "super driving control", we can focus on the new generation of PTZ intelligent chassis of Star Era ET. The chassis brings users a third mobile space with stable driving, precise handling and comfortable ride. First of all, it is the same high-end double wishbone design as Bentley and Lamborghini, the world's top architecture, full of luxury, which can greatly reduce the sense of vibration. It is also equipped with IAS intelligent air suspension and CDC electromagnetic damping system, which accurately predicts the road conditions ahead through lidar, and can adjust the suspension damping in milliseconds when it recognizes that there is a speed bump ahead, making it easier for users.
In terms of "superintelligence", the Star Era ET also performs well. It is equipped with EEA5.0 electronic and electrical architecture and NEP all-scenario driving assistance system, which gives the vehicle a very high level of intelligence. Whether it is autonomous driving on the highway or complex road conditions in the city, Epoch ET can easily cope with it and provide drivers with a full range of intelligent driving experience. Coupled with the recent OTA upgrade of Epoch ET, every car owner can feel the driving pleasure of "common use and always new".
A more economical price to meet the needs of diversified vehicles
This time, the Star Era ET extended range and pure electric models launched at the same time, of which the extended range series launched 3 configurations including Plus, Pro, and Pro+, with a price of 189,800-225,800; The pure electric series is available in 5 configurations, including Pro, Pro 4WD, Pro Urban Intelligent Driving, Max, and Ultra, with prices ranging from 229,800 to 319,800. 8 major versions have been launched, which can better meet the diversified needs of consumers and provide consumers with on-demand purchases.
The main model with a price of about 250,000 yuan has gradually become the first choice for new middle-class families. With a budget of 250,000, if you choose the Star Era ET, then the extended-range model is a good choice. You can get the driving control of a million-level luxury car and a personalized luxury and intelligent car experience, and you can also get the commonly used and new EXEED OS car machine system, the standard inductive rear tailgate, UWB digital key, 50W wireless charging for mobile phones, rear backrest angle adjustment, CarPlay/Hicar, adaptive high and low beams, NEP auxiliary driving system, 256-color ambient lighting, automatic folding of exterior rearview mirror locking, front and rear four-window 6mm double-layer laminated mute glass, automatic dual-zone air conditioning and other configurations. It also has the three advantages of low energy consumption, sufficient power and ultra-quiet, which brings users a better car experience.
Epilogue:
Although China's new energy SUV market is becoming increasingly crowded, the strength of the top "three heroes of extended range" is obvious to all, and healthy competition has also brought vitality to market development and consumer experience. As a latecomer in the field of range extenders, Epoch ET continues to refresh the active exploration and attempts of future intelligent travel by virtue of the strength of the "five super" products, bringing users a more high-quality and convenient driving experience.
