4.3 seconds to break 100, full-time four-wheel drive! Tengshi's second new car ice and snow first test

For Tengshi brand, I believe everyone will not be too strange, but the first pure electric vehicle it launched can be described as "untimely".

At that time, the domestic electric vehicle market was still in the primary popularization stage, and the charging infrastructure, usage habits and awareness of electric vehicles were still insufficient. The acceptance of this high-end pure electric vehicle is very limited.

After struggling for a single model for many years, it finally released a new model-Tengshi X, and this conference is just the right time.

At present, Tengshi X has been delivered on the market and has not been tested before. This ice and snow test drive is its first public test drive.

Quickly understand tengshi x

1. The new car is positioned as a 7-seat medium-sized SUV, which is available in both pure electric and plug-in hybrid versions, and was delivered at the beginning of this year.

2. There are four models of pure electric vehicles, and the price range is 365,438+0.98-357,800 yuan; There are also four plug-in hybrid models with the price range of 28.98-36.5438+0.98 million yuan.

3. Tengshi X is technically similar to BYD Tang * * *, while its design incorporates many Mercedes-Benz design concepts.

4. The sales and after-sales of Tengshi models belong to Beijing Benz, so if you want to buy them, you should find a suitable Mercedes-Benz 4S shop.

Mature platform, mature power

Since BYD is one of Tengshi's shareholders, it is not surprising that Tengshi X uses BYD's e platform and mature power system. Its power system and power battery are consistent with Tang DM and Tang EV.

Let's look at pure electric vehicles first. Pure electric vehicles will have front-wheel drive and four-wheel drive models. The front-wheel drive model is equipped with a motor with maximum power 180kW(245Ps) and maximum torque of 330N·m, and the four-wheel drive model is equipped with a motor with maximum power of 360kW(489Ps) and maximum torque of 660 N m..

The battery capacity is 82.8kWh, the battery energy density is 16 1Wh/kg, the cruising range of NEDC is 520km, and it takes 30 minutes to charge from 30% to 80% in fast charging mode.

The plug-in hybrid vehicle consists of a 2.0T engine with the maximum power of141kw (192ps) and two permanent magnet synchronous motors, and is also equipped with BSG motors.

The two motors are located on the front axle and the rear axle respectively, and the maximum power is110kw (150ps) and180kw (245ps) respectively. The maximum power of the system is 43 1kW(586Ps), the maximum torque is 950n·m, and the acceleration time of new car 0- 100km/h is within 4.3s s.

It is equipped with a ternary lithium battery pack with a capacity of 20kWh, and its pure electric cruising range is 865,438+0km and 100km respectively.

I believe there is no need to question the stability of this power system too much. After all, Tang DM and Tang EV have proved enough.

As for the warranty of the three electric systems, Tengshi X enjoys 8 years/15000 km (whichever comes first) warranty service for the whole vehicle, and 6 years/150000 km (whichever comes first) warranty service for the whole vehicle.

The power performance is bright and the chassis is slightly improved.

The models of this ice and snow road test drive are mainly plug-in hybrid vehicles. Here is mainly about its driving experience.

As mentioned earlier, Tengshi X adopts BYD Tang's power system and chassis, so what's the difference between driving and not driving? To tell the truth, there is not much difference. Tengshi X only slightly improved the driving quality of the chassis.

Driving on the ice and snow road will reduce the road adhesion, so using winter tires is the basic equipment; If you drive on smooth ice, you need to equip yourself with nail tires. We are driving on the normal ice and snow road for test drive, and it is enough to equip winter tires.

The power mode of Tengshi X plug-in hybrid vehicle is the same as that of Tang DM, providing two power modes, EV and HEV. When the power is sufficient, the system defaults to EV mode, which is also the most commonly used mode in daily life.

In this mode, it is a pure electric vehicle, which is driven by the front and rear axle motors (the engine is not working), and the power output is smooth and the car is quiet.

In HEV hybrid mode, the low speed is mainly driven by pure electric, and the engine will only intervene after the speed is increased. Of course, if the battery charge is lower than 15%, the engine will also intervene forcibly.

Tengshi X plug-in hybrid vehicle is equipped with BYD's third-generation DM technology, adding BSG motor, which can increase the engine speed in advance and re-ignite beyond the low-speed jitter range of the engine when starting; In the process of gear shifting, BSG motor will also actively control the engine speed to make it correspond to the vehicle speed and gear position, thus improving the smoothness of gear shifting during driving. ? Therefore, the ride comfort of the vehicle in starting and stopping, idling, shifting, acceleration and other aspects has been greatly improved, and the driving is extremely smooth.

In the driving mode, ECO, SPORT and snow/gravel/grass modes are also available. In ECO mode, the dynamic response will be slightly slower, but it is enough for daily driving. After all, there is sufficient power reserve, so don't worry about slow speed.

In sports mode, its dynamic response will be more sensitive. If you suddenly step on the accelerator deeply while driving, the strong torque will instantly encircle the tire, making it temporarily lose its grip. The acceleration generated by stepping on the accelerator can definitely make your adrenaline soar.

In the snow/gravel/grass mode, the system will control the torque output of the vehicle, and the power output will be more peaceful, without wasting the power of the vehicle and getting out of trouble smoothly.

This mode will come in handy in this test drive on icy roads, and it will be more helpful to use the snow/gravel/grass mode when driving on unpaved snowy roads.

When encountering the cross axle road surface, the wheel rim auxiliary brake will work immediately, limiting the power loss of the slipping tire and making the vehicle get out of trouble faster. When encountering low adhesion pavement, ESP will intervene in time to help control the stability of the car body.

In addition, when this mode is turned on, the vehicle will automatically turn on when going downhill on a steep slope, and it will also assist in braking to reduce the speed when going downhill.

In the kinetic energy recovery part, Tengshi X provides a standard big model. In the standard mode, there will be no strong sense of deceleration and drag, which is suitable for most people's driving habits. The bigger model will be stronger. In the face of icy roads, it is obviously better to start a larger mode to assist deceleration, which can control the speed well.

In the short-distance road test drive, Tengshi X tends to be comfortable in the overall driving texture, but this comfort is relative.

This "soft" treatment makes people feel comfortable on straight roads or slightly undulating roads. When encountering continuous road roughness, even a small road joint, its road feeling feedback will be very clearly transmitted from the seat to the passengers, which is quite contradictory.

Tengshi X is equipped with FSD adaptive shock absorbers as standard, which will enhance its sense of movement and reduce the overall shaking of the car body to some extent.

In corners, its suspension support is sufficient, and the amplitude of roll is not obvious, which also benefits from the improvement of wheel stiffness brought by its FSD adaptive shock absorber and low flat tire.

In terms of steering, Tengshi X provides two modes: sports and comfort. The former has a slightly heavier steering force, while the latter has a relatively soft steering force.

In terms of steering feel, it gives people a feeling that it is quite electronic, divorced from most of the sense of shunt, and the steering righting force is weak, resulting in a relatively weak sense of control.

The configuration is complete, but it is not eye-catching.

Tengshi X is relatively complete in configuration, but it is not eye-catching. There is no configuration beyond competitors, and there are relatively few attractions.

Active safety configuration is equipped with full-speed adaptive cruise system, lane keeping, intelligent identification of traffic signs, intelligent switching system of far and near light, lane departure warning system, blind spot auxiliary system and automatic emergency braking system (with pedestrian identification and pedestrian protection functions), which is reasonable in the same level.

In addition, manufacturers mainly promote their intelligent networking functions, such as voice control system and remote associated control of mobile APP. These functions have long been commonplace today and are not novel at all.

In basic configuration, mobile phone wireless charging, seat heating and ventilation, electric seat, electric steering wheel adjustment, electric tailgate and panoramic sunroof are all equipped, which are basically conventional configurations.

The 360 HD panoramic penetrating 3D image system is a very practical device, which can provide a good outside view on complex roads.

In addition, it supports VTOL mode, which can carry out 3.3kW? /? 220V AC discharge is very convenient. Outdoor suburbs need electricity.

Comments: The appearance is highly recognizable.

The front face of Tengshi X got rid of the design of the traditional air intake grille and adopted a closed design, which was round and full as a whole. Officials also call this design concept "plump front face design".

The closed front face design can get rid of the impression of traditional cars. Although the appearance is different, its design conforms to the aesthetics of most people.

The LED strip in the middle of the front face runs through the headlights on both sides, which visually increases the width of the car body. Headlights are slender in shape, and far and near lights are LED light sources.

Two large air intakes are designed on both sides under the front bumper, similar to the design elements of Mercedes-Benz.

There is little difference between the front faces of pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles. Because the engine of plug-in hybrid car needs air intake, there is a slender air intake above the license plate frame, which is their biggest difference.

Coming to the side, the shape of the car side is very stretched, and the wheelbase reaches 2820 mm, adding "Styled?" On the front fender. By who? Mercedes-Benz nameplate indicates its relationship with Mercedes-Benz.

The wheel hub adopts 22-inch gold/silver two-color wheel hub, which is very individual and highly recognizable. In addition, the new car is equipped with six-piston Brembo brake calipers.

For the rear of the car, the new rear logo is decorated with the word "X" instead of the brand logo. The blackened integrated taillights have a strong sense of detail design and echo the front face.

The interior is luxurious and the details are in place.

The interior part also reflects the due texture. The new car is layered, embracing design, adding luxury style.

A large area of leather material is the easiest way to visually enhance its sense of luxury. The wooden decorative board at the door has natural lines, and the overall materials and workmanship details far exceed those of the Tang model.

15.6 inch floating central control panel supports rotation, with relatively high screen ratio, ultra-thin narrow edge, fine picture quality and first-class visual effect. At the same time, the new car is also equipped with a full LCD instrument with the size of 12.3 inches, and the display effect is also good.

Tengshi X's central control system is also an Android vehicle-mounted system, with the same interface layout as BYD's central control system, but the UI is redesigned and the text is enlarged, which is quite convenient to use.

It may be a pity that the 12.3-inch instrument still does not support the interconnection with the central control system, although it displays exquisitely.

The electronic lever is still used under the central control panel, but the shape of the lever has changed compared with the old one. Behind the bar is the multimedia control area, and the physical keys for controlling the vehicle are distributed around.

The whole department comes standard with seven seats.

Tengshi X comes standard with seven seats, and the height 170cm is adjusted to the appropriate position. There are two fists in the front head space, and there are manual telescopic leg rests in the front seats, so the seat configuration is still relatively high.

The backrest support of the second row of seats is adjustable, the length of the seat cushion is longer, the head space is kept with one punch and four fingers, and the leg space is more than two punches. The platform in the middle position is completely flat, so sitting in the middle position is more comfortable.

However, because the battery is arranged under the car, the height of the platform in the car is high, and the support of the seat to the legs is weak when riding.

In and out of the third row, the second row needs to be reversed, which is relatively inconvenient. In terms of space performance, the third row needs to take care of the second row of passengers, and the second row of seats can be adjusted slightly forward to obtain comfortable and reasonable seating space.

There is no problem in putting down the boarding box and backpack in the seven-seat trunk. The third row of seats supports a ratio of 5/5, and the trunk space will be further increased after being put down. Of course, the second row of seats also supports proportional tilting, which can form a completely flat space with the trunk after tilting.

In terms of storage space, there is enough space in the front and rear rows to place water bottles well, and USB charging interfaces are also provided in the front and rear rows.

Fully integrated with Mercedes-Benz.

Although Tengshi is a brand that developed new energy earlier, its promising prospects have been declining because of "untimely birth".

After the first pure electric vehicle went on the market, due to external factors such as imperfect domestic charging infrastructure, small market demand for high-end electric vehicles, insufficient consumer awareness of products, and internal factors such as single product, high price and insufficient marketing investment, the sales volume was not good.

At present, the domestic new energy vehicle market has become more and more mature. At this time, Tengshi automobile should make new adjustments and launch a highly competitive Tengshi X.

In terms of brand sales and service, Tengshi began to fully integrate into Mercedes-Benz. In June last year, Tengshi brand announced a new operation mode, and Beijing Benz Sales & Service Co., Ltd. began to be responsible for some business operations of Tengshi, including sales, marketing and brand communication, customer service and network development.

It is obviously beneficial and harmless for Beijing Benz to include Tengshi automobile sales and after-sales service. At present, Mercedes-Benz has 600 4S stores in China, which has greatly improved Tengshi Automobile in terms of the number, quality and brand image of dealers.

In product research and development, Tengshi automobile products are more "Mercedes-Benz". Tengshi X's vehicle design comes from Mercedes-Benz China Advanced Design Center, and some elements of Mercedes-Benz can be seen in appearance and interior. In addition, the low-temperature climate, wind, more than 40 kinds of winter common working conditions and extreme working conditions tests and other verification projects have also been completed in the German Mercedes-mercedes benz R&D Center.

Obviously, Tengshi Automobile hopes to achieve transformation and upgrading by embracing Mercedes-Benz in product sales, service and product research and development.

The competition is fierce and the brand awareness still needs to be improved.

Among the 300,000-class electric vehicles, Tengshi X has no shortage of rivals, Weilai ES6, and Guangzhou Automobile New Energy Aion? LX, model? Li is even an opponent with his brother Tang. Judging from the hard quality of the models, they all have their own advantages and are difficult to distinguish.

However, Tengshi X also provides plug-in hybrid models. There are not many choices at this level, so it is foreseeable that plug-in hybrid models will be the main sales models of Tengshi X.

In addition, brand awareness may be a big weakness of Tengshi. The number of dealer systems established by myself before is small and the coverage is single. Now relying on the dealer network of Mercedes-Benz, I believe that the influence and popularity will gradually increase.

As for whether Tengshi X is worth buying, my suggestion is that it is worth buying.
