One is government-enterprise subsidy, which is a price reduction measure brought by relevant ministries to stimulate automobile consumption. For example, Dongfeng system, which is in the whirlpool of public opinion, exchanged 1.2 million for C6. I wonder if you bought it? The other school's motivation for price reduction is to kill Tesla. This is even more embarrassing. At the beginning of June, Tesla officially released, 1, and the follow-up camp was immediately full, and even issued the rhetoric of "the same price for oil and electricity". Among them, it is BYD, a traditional automobile manufacturer, who can put down his body and talk about "stable price increase". The price is low, and the word of mouth has long existed. The sales of Model 3 are really super.
Word-of-mouth can evaluate a company's past, and price can represent its current sales sincerity, but for today's consumers, these are icing on the cake, and dessert and product strength are king. So, as the most representative model in the dynasty series, what kind of performance will BYD's new Korean EV Champion Edition bring?
Let's begin. The top is less than 300 thousand, dare to match DiSus-C intelligent electronic control active suspension
For suspension systems, motion and softness are often contradictory concepts. If you want to turn smoothly, you should be careful of the speed bump and let the back rows meet. If you want to be comfortable, driving around the corner is like a disco. You can swing from side to side with the rhythm. Under the temptation of fish and bear's paw, adaptive adjustable suspension came into being.
This configuration is the patent of luxury cars, and it is also the oligopoly technology of Bosch, ZF and ThyssenKrupp. BYD, who likes technology and hard work, is also deeply attracted by it. Research and development began in 2009, and it took more than ten years to mass-produce DiSus-C intelligent electronically controlled active suspension. In 2022, BYD became the first independent automobile company to successfully develop this type of electronically controlled suspension system. The system has been successfully mounted on the Korean Champion version electric vehicle that we are about to test drive. With its blessing, how does this car feel to drive?
I've never missed the speed bump so much. I drove BYD-Korea EV Champion Edition away from the starting point, looking for its traces in the streets, but I accidentally ushered in a mountain bend. Before that, the chassis of this car gave me the message that I was easy to get along with, and with the blessing of DiSus-C intelligent electronically controlled active suspension, I felt that the bending action of this car was almost inseparable.
The rock disappeared from my sight, and I drove the vehicle flexibly to avoid the oncoming cars. When the line of sight returned to the road, the blind corner had come to my eyes. In order to prevent the lady in the back row from getting carsick, I immediately lost the accelerator pedal and wanted to enter the corner in a smooth posture. But before I could slow down and brake, DiSus-C intelligent electronic active suspension system has prompted the vehicle to change lanes.
When the vehicle arrived at bending center, the lateral support of the suspension system gave me enough confidence, which made me feel at ease and boldly hover my right foot on the brake pedal, thus giving me more energy to hold the steering wheel and control the forward direction.
The sharp bend in the mountain in the rearview mirror is gradually drifting away. This intelligent electronic control active suspension system gives me the feeling that it is very comfortable in the bend. Its reaction speed is very fast. The vehicle speed sensor and the body inertia sensor can directly transmit the road information that the vehicle has just faced to the suspension system controller for calculation, and frantically adjust the opening of the electromagnetic valves inside the four shock absorbers, so as to quickly adjust the shape of the suspension and provide sufficient support.
Drive the car forward, and there will be access after every corner. At this point, I have achieved complete trust in DiSus-C system. As long as I can see the exit of the curve, I can step on the accelerator with confidence. BYD-Korea EV Champion Edition is equipped with 380 kW and 700 Nm front and rear dual motor systems, and the acceleration time of 100 kilometers is only 3.9 seconds, which is very rare for a medium and large car. Especially in sports mode, the word "crazy" can be used to describe switching. I feel dizzy even in the main driver's seat, except that the seat back pushes my back forward at full speed.
However, although the acceleration performance of the Korean EV Champion Edition followed Paramera closely, it did not feel the front of the car rising during the acceleration process. This is also due to DiSus-C system. After the inertial sensor senses the acceleration g value, it will quickly tighten the suspension to offset it. I miss Mustang, a 4.0T pure Mustang equipped with V8 system, and the acceleration momentum of striding forward makes my solitary life in my early twenties full of passion. But now, driving this medium and large pure electric car, the same footwork brings the same acceleration experience. At most, my wife will say, "slow down, don't worry." Not the sharp question "Are you crazy?" .
DiSus-C system can also cooperate well with the Brembo brake system of this car. I know a colleague from Taiwan Province Province who once had mixed comments on BMW. "BMW's personality is that it never bows its head and brakes to the end. The opposite Mercedes will bow to you, and BMW's front is always horizontal, because its suspension will only pull the body forward and backward. Of course, it is another matter for the rear passengers to want to vomit after sitting for a long time. " Brembo braking system, which is very sensitive from the middle, is definitely the gospel of performance lovers. It has always been good at stabilizing braking. Compared with the ancient BMW we just mentioned, the braking posture of the champion Korean EV is not unique, and the front and rear displacement of the car body is also offset by the ultimate tension of the suspension.
Before the Korean EV Champion Edition, this DiSus-C system actually began to serve on the pre-listed money models. You know, it is a luxury special edition model of Korean descent, which undoubtedly shows the product manager's trust in this system. On today's champion Korean EV, DiSus-C system was written into PPT as one of the highlights of this product series. After all, BYD is the first manufacturer of full-stack self-developed intelligent electronically controlled active suspension in China, and it is also the first time to officially put this configuration on a car with a model below 300,000 yuan.
How is the new color matching top matching similar to the seal unique?
You can hardly remember its features, but its shape will definitely make you unforgettable, which is the nature of most products. Like the handsome guy who lives on the sixth floor of your house or the little sister in the tea shop next door. It takes a lot of brains to describe them, but they always come to mind with warm or comfortable smiles.
After winning the championship, this Korean EV first brought a new color scheme to show its special identity. The color scheme of this car body named Glacier Blue is a mixture of pearlescent aluminum powder, which has metallic brightness and low saturation, and can slightly change color among the trees in sunny forests. We don't have to think too much about its craft. Among BYD's many body colors, Qian Cui Shan always ranks first, and this bright light blue is enough to rank second. I wonder if the seal owner has found that this glacier blue is very similar to the seal's north ice blue?
Compared with the past, the shape of the champion model has not changed much, and it has mastered the essence of the pure electric vehicle closed grille and the sharp wind breaking line. As a product of Li Chong high-end camp of Dynasty series, it presents a "luxurious" figure spanning B and C camps for the first time, with a size of 4995/1910/1495mm and a wheelbase of 2920mm, which is larger than that of Accord and Camry and smaller than that of E and 5 series.
In addition to the brand-new color scheme and the size of the top stream, I was deeply impressed by two places in the Korean EV Champion Edition. The first is its C-pillar. You can think of the decorative board as a small design that breaks the golden mean. Is this design element similar to the old mustang column very powerful? Especially the top model of the champion version, it changed the color of the decorative board into a silver gray with a more metallic texture, and it felt like it was coming.
The easiest way to distinguish the top model from other champion models lies in its rear. The four-wheel drive flagship scored 3.9 seconds, which has been integrated with its right tail tag. The other four models have an acceleration time of 7.9 seconds, which naturally can't grab the limelight of the boss on the rear label.
Trucks react faster than seals. What is the performance of "steady price increase"?
As one of BYD's models with the highest market penetration, its interior is familiar to us. Entering the car, this large screen that can switch between horizontal screen and vertical screen at any time is still the visual center of the interior. But this time BYD replaced it with the latest DiLink 4.0 intelligent networking system.
When I was still using a 4G mobile phone, this brand-new in-vehicle system has started to fully support 5G. The first benefit it brings is that the application in the app store can slide down to the next second. There is also the sliding experience of the system, which is not stuck, even much better than the seals experienced before. The highlight of the configuration upgrade is the BSD blind spot monitoring system, which solves the pain points of many blind spots in the cart. The new NFC unlocking function is added to the mobile phone, which binds the mobile phone to the in-vehicle system, and the mechanical key becomes a backup. Because you can open and close the door, the Bluetooth key to start and stop the vehicle is in your pocket.
It is said that from simplicity to luxury, if there is no improvement in configuration every year, then the product manager of this car will be embarrassed to say hello when meeting with his peers. Therefore, BYD's idea of timely price reduction in line with the market is indeed a problem for product managers. But as far as the China EV champion model is concerned, the designer has done a good job in "stabilizing the price and increasing the allocation".
Brands that use products to knock on the door of the market often pay great attention to "face" at the beginning of their business, and a very full configuration table gives people the feeling that they are full of sincerity. BYD is doing this, so are other brands. As for the content of the experience, ordinary consumers can't see or touch it, and there is no condition to compare and distinguish it, so the problem of "lining" is often ignored. Many brands do this, but BYD does the opposite. There is no shortage of sales in big factories, and the penetration rate of Han family to the market has surpassed Model 3. Just looking at the share of online car in Shenzhen can explain the situation. In this context, BYD has the energy to officially put DiSus-C intelligent electronically controlled active suspension, which can obviously improve the driving experience, on the bus. It is precisely because of the bottom of sales that BYD, which is in the red sea of price reduction, is confident to continue to sail in the direction of "stabilizing prices and increasing distribution".
