Today, let’s talk about which one is more worth choosing from NIO ET7 or Zhiji L7. First of all, considering the models at this price, there are more or less some premium , so where is the premium of NIO ET7 and Zhiji L7? I think it is a competition for service and the R&D capabilities of new cars, so I will first draw a conclusion at the beginning: Whoever has more noble services and whose new cars are stronger will be more worth buying.
Soft power is one aspect. Let’s see which hard power is stronger. Let’s look at the size first. The sizes of the two cars are not much different. NIO ET7 has a certain advantage in terms of car length, car width and car height. However, Zhiji L7 has an advantage in wheelbase, but the two are only a few centimeters apart, so there can be understood as no difference in appearance aura and space use.
front face I think NIO ET7 is more stable and atmospheric, and Zhiji L7 is obviously more sporty. Although lidar is placed on the roof, Zhiji Auto needs to be optional, but there are two more visual cameras on the roof of the NIO ET7; NIO ET7 uses low-resistance rims, while Zhiji L7's rims are more sporty.
interior, NIO ET7 is equipped with a 12.8-inch screen, which is very smooth with high computing power support. There are four sets of microphones in the whole car, which can identify instructions issued by passengers at different locations and achieve personalized response; Zhiji L7 looks all screens at first glance, the center console is equipped with a 12.8-inch and 26.3-inch screen, and the co-driver entertainment screen has also reached 12.3-inch. In the concept of Zhiji's car manufacturing, physical buttons no longer exist.
Let's look at the battery life, the solutions given by NIO ET7 on the battery should be more flexible, including three battery pack solutions: 75kW, 100kW and 150kW. In addition, on the basis of the ternary lithium-ion battery, there is also the solid-state battery version, equipped with a 150kW solid-state battery version, with a range of up to 1,000 kilometers. You can also choose the NIO Baas solution, and you can also rent a battery. The battery swap function is not available in Zhiji L7, which means that the battery life of NIO ET7 is not needed. Anyway, it provides a battery swap solution; Zhiji L7 is relatively traditional in battery solutions, and currently only has a 90-degree battery pack with a battery life of 615 kilometers.
Intelligent configuration, both cars are quite rich. NIO ET7 is equipped with AQUILA super-sensing system, 33 high-precision sensors, and high-precision lidar. Zhiji L7 can be equipped with two lidars, but after comparison, NIO ET7 is equipped with more functions. However, Zhiji L7 has another big move, which is the user's equity incentive plan. As long as users drive 5,000 kilometers per year, they can upgrade the next generation of lidar for free, and upgrade a next-generation high-end energy battery with no less than 120 kilowatt-hours in three years, easily expanding the range to a level of more than 800 kilometers. Compared with NIO's paid subscription plan, Zhiji seems to have a lower cost in the long run.
Through a brief comparison, I actually think that NIO ET7 is more worth choosing as NIO's first flagship sedan, and NIO is more solid in battery swap services and new car research and development; while Zhiji L7, as the pioneer of Zhiji Automobile, spares no effort to show its unique insights into the field of new energy and has made some bold attempts. We are also looking forward to the performance of L7.
