Big five-seater is really big
Because the body size of the Xiaopeng G9 has been announced long ago, the length of less than 4.9 meters is actually not particularly long, but I really came into contact with the real car and it is quite aura. The through-type light belt on the front face has a strong technological atmosphere. The headlight group is arranged in a split style. The headlight group is large in size. Combined with the closed center grille, it is very consistent with our visual impression of new energy vehicles.
The side lines are not complicated, they just look very ordinary. The hidden door handle is already the standard for new energy vehicles, and the wheel hub does not look like low wind resistance. It is obvious that this is a high-end car. The taillights echo the front of the car, using a through-type design, and the internal light source is not just a straight line. The bottom is wrapped with bright colored decorative panels, which is considered to be meaningless.
I just mentioned big, it is the aura outside the car. Now I want to talk about the internal space of G9. First of all, multiple large-sized LCD screens add a lot of color to the visual width of the front row of the car. With the large-scale front windshield and large-size panoramic skylight, it gives people a very transparent feeling and is more comfortable to sit inside.
front seats can be almost completely folded down and lie flat, so that you can get a better experience when taking a nap and relaxing in the car. Moreover, the entire series comes with electric adjustment, heating and ventilation functions. The second-lower configuration has started to add massage, and the material of the seat has also become leather.
The most important rear seat of the big five seats. We also had a personal experience this time. The comfort of the rear seat during driving is pretty good, especially when passing through bumpy roads, the support provided by the air suspension is very good. It can be seen that the dual-cavity air suspension does exist. In addition, the entire rear seats support electric adjustment, which is good, and the heating and massage functions are only available with a high-end heating and massage function of more than 400,000 yuan.
Performance is no longer the only judging criteria
Xiaopeng G9 has two sets of power, the rear-wheel drive version is equipped with a 230kW single motor, and the four-wheel drive version has added a 175kW front motor on this basis, with a total power of 405kW. The acceleration time of 0-100km/h is 6.4 seconds and 3.9 seconds respectively, which is not easy for an SUV of this size.
In the era of fuel vehicles, judging the power performance of a car often uses acceleration capabilities as an important indicator. But in the era of pure electric, the acquisition of acceleration capabilities has become simpler and more direct. The more you want, the more motor you want. Therefore, the criteria for judging the quality of the tram's power have changed, whether it is easy to drive, whether the kinetic energy recovery is smart, whether there is any discomfort in acceleration and deceleration, etc.
Xiaopeng G9 provides standard, comfort, sports, escape, catapult and other driving mode switching, corresponding to different usage scenarios. It also has the ability to freely adjust multiple functional parameters. When the four-wheel drive version is adjusted to geek mode, it can be set to pure front-wheel drive or pure four-wheel drive, with high freedom. This approach can meet the definition that different consumer groups have easy to drive a car.
During the test drive, we could feel that the atmosphere of the internal space was very quiet. It is actually not difficult to do this. We just need to spend money to pile up materials. Simply put, add acoustic packages in key areas, use silent tires, etc.
Intelligent driving assistance is truly intelligent
Currently, in the field of autonomous driving assistance, except for Tesla , "Wei Xiaoli" has done a good job, and Xiaopeng is the one among them who is ahead of them. The functions equipped with the G9 we tested include FCW forward collision warning, AEB emergency braking, LKA lane keeping assistance, LDW lane departure warning, BSD blind spot monitoring and early warning and other common auxiliary functions.It also has relatively advanced functions such as door opening warning, rear horizontal vehicle warning, rear collision warning and other advanced functions. The MAX model of
G9 has the strongest computing power in the car series, and the chip used is currently the most mainstream Nvidia Orin, with a computing power of 508TOPS. Currently, the G9 supports XPILOT, including smart parking, adaptive cruise, lane centering, etc. Because high-precision maps are required to implement NGP functions, advanced assisted driving cannot be achieved in most cities for the time being.
Xiaopeng G9's product strength is indeed good and very in place. However, we tested the high-end or top-end models, and the price may reach more than 400,000 yuan. If you are not interested in high-end configurations such as air suspension, then choosing the MAX version of 70 or 702 will have a better experience using the car.
