In the current new energy SUV market, the models we can choose can be said to be "flowering all the flowers", including the Honda Jipai 1 and Volkswagen ID.6 series with joint venture brands; there are also the independent brands such as BYD Song PLUS DM-i, NIO ES6, and Ideal ONE. Among them, Ideal ONE is a model that is difficult to ignore. This car is firmly ranked among the top sales of new energy medium and large SUVs, and it is not difficult to sell more than 10,000 yuan per month. Now, Ideal ONE is about to usher in a new generation of models, that is Ideal L8. Many people believe that this car will take over the baton of Ideal ONE and continue to dominate the sales list of medium and large SUVs. So, has this "new ideal ONE" changed any changes in product strength?
According to the official information, Ideal L8 will be launched on September 30, and the price will be announced. At the same time, during the National Day holiday, the car exhibitions of Ideal L8 have gradually reached Ideal retail centers in various places. Consumers can take advantage of the National Day holiday to go to the store to experience it. The official delivery time of this car is in early November. In addition, from the naming of Ideal L8 and previous Ideal L9, it is not difficult to find that Ideal Auto is gradually unifying the naming methods of its models, and will build a "L" sequence. In the future, Ideal Auto will also create Ideal L7 to further enrich the selection of car series.
As a new generation model of Ideal ONE, the positioning and layout of Ideal L8 are inherited from Ideal ONE, and are also a medium and large six-seater SUV. However, in terms of body size, the ideal L8, as the new car, has slightly increased, with the length, width and height of the car, respectively, and the wheelbase of 3005mm. At present, the space of Ideal ONE is not small. After 6 seats are packed, the second and third rows in the car can meet the riding needs of adults. The Ideal L8 has increased the body size, and it is not difficult to speculate that the interior seating space of the new car will also be optimized to a certain extent.
However, in terms of appearance design, the design of Ideal L8 is very different from that of Ideal ONE. As a product of the new car series, the appearance design of Ideal L8 is closer to Ideal L9. On the front face, you can see the split-designed lamp group design, in which the upper part of the light strip is in a penetrating design, and the lower part of the lamp cavity is in a longitudinal design, cleverly connecting with the lower sub grille. At the same time, above the front windshield glass, you can see a sensor module that is exactly the same as the ideal L9, and the style is relatively sci-fi. The side body profile is similar to the ideal ONE, and there are no too complicated body lines. The door handle adopts a hidden design. You can see the same penetrating light strip as the front face at the rear, but there is no split light group element added, and there is no exposed exhaust.
This car will be equipped with a new four-wheel drive extended range electric system and will also be equipped with a magic carpet air suspension standard. At the same time, Ideal L8 will be available in two different configurations, Pro and Max. Among them, the Ideal L8 Pro model is equipped with smart driving AD Pro and smart cockpit SS Pro standard. Among them, the intelligent driving AD Pro system is equipped with the world's first Horizon J5 chip, and is equipped with high-speed NOA navigation assisted driving. This function is currently available in Ideal L9, which can realize automatic lane change and automatic speed control functions in high-speed sections supported by high-precision maps. The smart cockpit SS Pro is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip, and the car will provide a four-screen interaction solution, including HUD, a safe driving interactive screen and two 15.7-inch LCD screens in the front row.
and the ideal L8 Max model will be equipped with smart driving AD Max and smart cockpit SS Max, among which AD Max uses NVIDIA dual Orin X chips and has upgraded the lidar , with a full set of autonomous driving safety redundant systems. Based on the Pro model, the Smart Cockpit SS Max has an additional upgrade to a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip and provides a 15.7-inch LCD screen for rear passengers. It is not difficult to find that this smart cockpit solution is a smart cockpit that is relatively close to the Ideal L9. In terms of functions and subsequent experience, it should also be closer to the Ideal L9. As for pricing, this car is expected to be priced within 400,000, which is closer to the current pricing of Ideal ONE. So, do you think this ideal L8 with sci-fi shape and increased size can continue to become popular?
