The smaller, the better. This “alternative” new energy vehicle is 2.5 meters long, but it sold more than 60,000 units a year.

A small car with a length of less than 2.5 meters sold more than 60,000 units in 2019, with an average monthly sales of more than 5,000 units, always ranking among the top three in the sales list. The Baojun E200 under Baojun New Energy is a bit confusing.

It’s indeed amazing. Chinese people who have always made great use of buying cars suddenly have so many “alternatives” appearing?

After carefully understanding the characteristics of this car, it is not surprising. Because this unique and unique design meets the needs of some people and solves the travel problems that they have experienced and been distressed by.

The primary feature of Baojun E200 is its small size. Here I can't help but think of the slogan of the Volkswagen Beetle in North America: "Think of the small benefits." Indeed, congestion and parking difficulties have become one of the travel problems that trouble people. It is difficult to move even an inch on the busy roads during rush hours. It's easy to arrive at your destination, but you can't find a parking space after turning around for a few times. It's probably very painful for students who clock in at work.

At this time, the advantages of the Baojun E200 are revealed. Because of the short body and small turning radius of the Baojun E200, the pure electric car starts quickly and is easy to drive. In some areas, without violating regulations, Baojun E200 can be parked in half the space of a traditional parking space, or two Baojun E200s can be parked in one traditional parking space. These are small benefits, and they also save parking resources to a certain extent.

The high cost of travel is also a concern for many consumers. Because the radius of urban life and work is getting larger and larger, many families will consider buying two cars, one for each couple. If they are both traditional 5-seater cars, it is not economical or environmentally friendly. Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, I will buy a pure electric car that is good-quality, cheap and easy to drive. As the second car of the family, 5-seater is too big, and 2-seater is just right.

As a pure electric car, Baojun E200 is unique not only in its 2-seater design, but also in its battery life and convenient charging. The 250km cruising range is just right. Even if you commute to get off work or pick up the kids to buy groceries every day, you need to drive 30 to 40 kilometers. It is just enough to meet your travel needs for a week. If you don’t charge it during the week, you can continue to use it next week.

Unlike some pure electric vehicles that require traditional charging piles, the Baojun E200 can be charged with only 220V household three plugs. If conditions permit, it can be charged by connecting to a power strip; if conditions do not permit, it can be charged. Don’t worry, you just need to install a charging box socket at a designated location. The cost is low and the construction volume is not large. It only takes about 10 hours to charge from 20% to 100%. It can be basically fully charged in one night. It costs about 19 kilowatt hours of electricity and costs more than ten yuan. The travel cost is only one-tenth of that of traditional fuel vehicles. If you want to speed up the charging, you only need to install a 6.6kw motor. It can be fully charged in 4 hours and the cost is only about 3,000.

Based on the advantages of Baojun E200, it is not difficult to understand why such a niche product has such unimaginable performance, coupled with its cheap cost-effectiveness, starting from 45,800 Upon purchase, there is also an 8-year or 120,000-kilometer battery warranty, further eliminating consumers’ worries.
