Hi everyone, I am honored as a teacher by car public relations, admired by fans, and the most nonsensical teacher in the car critics.
From the monthly sales data, we can see that the sales of compact cars with the strongest household attributes and more economical preference are always in the forefront. The competition in this market has always been the most. Fiercely, the same conclusion holds true for new energy vehicles.
Not long ago, Geometry launched an upgraded version of Geometry A Pro for its first model Geometry A , which lowered the starting price of the 600km model to less than 150,000 yuan in one fell swoop. On June 23, the old rival GAC Aion also launched an upgraded version of AION S --- AION S Plus, which not only has a cruising range of up to 600km, but also has a price close to that of the geometric A Pro.
I believe that these two cars are options that users who are considering buying new energy compact cars cannot bypass, so how should they choose? What different needs can they satisfy each other? Next, I will take you to analyze it.
"Too long to see" Lite version
1. AION S Plus looks more sci-fi and futuristic; Geometry A Pro focuses more on fashion sports.
2. The interior and configuration of AION S Plus pay more attention to luxury and functionality; Geometry A Pro pays more attention to design and cool look.
3. The driving experience of AION S Plus is more comfortable at home; the geometric A Pro is more balanced, with a little bit of movement and control.
4. The power and endurance of the two vehicles are very similar, and both are equipped with L2+ level driving assistance systems, but AION S Plus has more functions in specific usage scenarios.
5. Some functions/configurations of AION S Plus require additional options. Geometry A Pro is more cost-effective overall.
6. The space performance of the two cars is good, and the comfort of riding in multiple passengers is guaranteed. However, AION S Plus is suitable for pure household needs with a comfortable orientation, and Geometry A Pro is more suitable for sports and control. Certainly required users.
Appearance comparison: dynamic vs. sci-fi
is also an A+ class new energy car between the compact and mid-level car . The AION S Plus and Geometry A Pro are both very simple and avant-garde. It can be clearly distinguished from traditional fuel vehicles.
Geometry A Pro does not have obvious changes in shape, but continues the original design of narrow geometry on both sides. Headlights,Make the front face more sharp and stylish. In addition, a black roof design has been added to the 600km model, which visually makes the body more low and dynamic.
AION S Plus has obvious changes in its overall shape. The closed "net, active" lower grille and sharp lines of the warrior are similar. While creating a strong sense of science fiction, the drag coefficient was reduced to an astonishing 0.211. There is also a black roof design, but all systems require +2500 yuan as an option.
S is basically the overall lead. It can be seen from the side that both cars have a design with a slip-back shape, and both have a hidden door handle. When the physical key is brought close to the vehicle, the door handle will be automatically pushed out.
The style of the rear of the car is also different. Geometric A Pro has a stronger sense of three-dimensionality, and AION S Plus is more sci-fi. payment?
Interior Comparison: Design VS Luxury
The interior part has obvious differences in style.Geometry A Pro pays more attention to the creation of a sense of design and movement. It uses a variety of materials with different textures and a large area of Alcantara fabric wrap. The unique color combination also makes the overall atmosphere more lively.
AION S Plus pays more attention to the luxury experience, using a large amount of soft slush molding and leather wrapping. In this change, the dual screen is removed and replaced with an independent instrument panel and a floating type. The large central control screen and the new knob-type electronic gear handle.
Specifically, Geometry A Pro is equipped with a small-sized two-span steering wheel, wrapped in two-color leather, and supports vertical/front-rear position adjustment. The small instrument screen is fixed on the steering column and will not be blocked by the steering wheel at all. On models with a battery life of 600km, a large HUD head-up display function is also provided as standard, which not only allows the driver to easily find a comfortable steering wheel angle , It can also make your attention more concentrated.
The buttons at the bottom of the center console are basically all touch-sensitive, still equipped with a cool E-touch central super-sensing touch area, but it is not an optimized version of geometric C, in the daytime The clarity under strong light is average.
The seat uses leather + Alcantara stitching, and uses a variety of textures on the chair surface, the overall texture is good, and it is also equipped with 7 colors of atmosphere lights. Some sunroofs in the front row are designed with ordinary sunshades, while the rear glass extends forward to the passengers' heads, providing a very wide view, but it may be hotter in the sun.
AION S Plus has upgraded the same three-spoke steering wheel as the AION Y, which looks a lot younger. The 14.6-inch floating central control screen also uses a new UI design , Both response speed and functionality are excellent.
With a longer body and wheelbase, the performance of the rear seat of the AION S Plus is naturally better, and the new car is based on the GEP2.0 pure electric platform, and the center platform can do it. There are no bumps at all.
The standard equipment of the whole series is a large panoramic canopy with an area of 1.9 square meters. It also provides an optional EC electrochromic glass (9,600 yuan), which can cut off the UV rays of 99,600 yuan. And most infrared light , effectively avoid the problem of the passenger's head being hot when exposed to direct sunlight.
Assisted driving: AION S Plus has more optional features
The advanced models of Geometry A Pro and AION S Plus are equipped with L2+ level assisted driving functions. The hardware is also exactly the same.
Both vehicles can implement basic lane keeping assist LKA, adaptive cruise control ACC, automatic brake assist system AEB, traffic sign recognition TSR and other functions.But according to different usage scenarios, AION S Plus is also equipped with one-button remote parking, over-the-horizon memory parking and highway lane change assist functions, but additional options are required.
In contrast, Geometry A Pro is more simple, and the driving assistance system does not need to be optional. Only the A600 Power Cube and A600 Magic Cube are equipped.
Summary: How to choose?
After reading the above analysis, I believe you already have the answer in your mind. In fact, the styles of these two cars are completely different in my opinion. If you want a more spacious ride, a more comfortable ride experience and a sci-fi avant-garde design, then you can choose AION S Plus.
And if you like a balanced driving experience with a touch of dynamic, and you are in a hurry to use the car, Geometry A Pro is naturally a better choice. At present, Geometry A Pro has been on the market for some time. It can not only pick up the car quickly, but also has a certain price concession, and the overall cost performance is higher.
