Historical review of four generations of land rover discovery with iconic body structure

  [Car History] In June 1970, a model named Range Rover was launched, which subverted people’s impression that Land Rover has always been rough and informal. After the birth of Range Rover, it became another hot-selling Land Rover model, which won an excellent reputation for Land Rover. After a lapse of 19 years, Land Rover built a new model based on the Range Rover chassis under the premise of lack of funds-Land Rover Discovery. From the moment the discovery was born, its uniqueness made it the focus of the world’s attention. After 25 years of continuous development of four generations of vehicles, the positioning of Land Rover discovery has been continuously improved, and the only constant is the iconic appearance structure.

(1989-1998)
Originated from Land Rover Range Rover, creating a unique body structure.

The first generation of Land Rover (imported) discovered the classic models in the past.

  In the mid-1980s, Land Rover urgently needed a new model to occupy the increasingly hot SUV market together with Range Rover. However, a new car needs a lot of research and development cycles and funds, which are obviously difficult for Land Rover to achieve. The new car project is imminent. Land Rover, led by Tony Gilroy, used all available funds. The team decided to choose a chassis between the existing Land Rover 110 (Defender) and the Range Rover to develop new models. Finally, the team chose the Range Rover with better road driving performance.

The first generation of Land Rover (imported) discovered the classic models in the past.

  Land Rover’s new car project was named Project Jay, and the sludge model of the car was completed in 1986. The designer built a stepped roof on the chassis of Range Rover, with headlights from Leland Sherpa truck and taillights from Austin Maestro truck. Although designers have racked their brains to make the new car different from the Range Rover, it is inevitable that the car is too similar in size to the Range Rover. In June 1989, Land Rover launched a new model after the Range Rover which was born in 1970-Land Rover Discovery.

The first generation of Land Rover (imported) discovered the classic models in the past.

  The first generation of Land Rover found that there was only one three-door model at the beginning of listing. Although it was based on the Range Rover chassis, its chassis, steering and braking systems were not modified, and the suspension laid a good foundation for discovering and conquering various road conditions. LT230T four-wheel drive is equipped with low-speed four-wheel drive, high-speed four-wheel drive and locking function. It is found that the main difference between the chassis structure and the Range Rover is that it does not use the automatic leveling system of the rear wheel of the Range Rover and the new pressed steel rim, but the carefully designed Land Rover finds that the price is lower than that of the Range Rover. In terms of body size, the first generation Land Rover found that it was 4539mm long, 1793mm wide, 1966mm high and 2540mm high.

  Thanks to the unique stepped roof design, the first generation Land Rover found that it has a high degree of recognition, and the invisible B-pillar design of the three-door model outlines the intriguing lines of the whole vehicle. At the beginning, in order to make the discovery different from the Range Rover, the designer integrated the side window design on both sides of the stepped roof, so that people no longer focused on whether the body size was similar to the Range Rover. The rear-mounted spare tire can be said to be a major feature of off-road vehicles, and the unique rear window shape has also become another major feature.

  In terms of interior, the first generation found that consumers can choose a variety of interior colors, the most representative of which is the interior color called sonar blue, and its center console, steering wheel and door panel are made of blue plastic. In order to reduce the cost of R&D and manufacturing, it was found that the internal structure was similar to that of Range Rover. All switches and instrument lights came from Rover’s Maestro and Montego models. The first generation found that the interior was quite simple, and the two-spoke steering wheel had a strong grip. A large number of function keys were gathered on both sides of the instrument panel, and the functional area of the center console was not rich. The left side of the air-conditioning panel was an electronic clock, the right side was a cigarette lighter, and the audio panel was located upward below the air-conditioning panel. Although it is found to be an SUV that is biased towards road driving, the handle in front of the co-pilot of the center console still highlights its wild side.

  Compared with Range Rover, it is found to be more like a station wagon. The seven-seat design greatly improves the utilization rate of its interior space. The interior ceiling is equipped with a storage mesh bag, and the double skylight design is also refreshing. The charm of Land Rover’s discovery lies not only in its unique design, but also in its price. Compared with the Range Rover with a starting price of 23,784, the price found was only 15,750, and this pricing also enabled it to sell 20,000 vehicles in the first year. However, in order to widen the gap with the higher-priced Range Rover, it was found that it was initially equipped with a 3.5-liter V8 pair with a maximum of 145 horsepower, and there was also a 2.5-liter direct injection to choose from, with a maximum power of 111 horsepower and a maximum power of 203 N m.

  Although the three-door version has outstanding interior space, the three-door layout of such a practical model obviously does not maximize the practicality, so it is imperative to develop the traditional five-door version. In 1990, that is, only one year after the first generation was listed, it was discovered that the five-door edition was officially met with the public. It is found that the appearance of the five-door version is consistent with that of the three-door version. The only difference is that the part that was originally "wasted" was replaced by the back door. 3.5-liter V8 fuel injection replaced the original carburetor engine, the maximum torque was increased from 260N·m to 288N·m, and the exhaust emissions were also reduced.

  At the same time, in order to meet the different needs of consumers, Land Rover launched a series of optional services for discovery, including and exhaust catalytic converters. As for the transmission system, it was found that only 5-speed was initially equipped, and the 4-speed provided by ZF began to be equipped on V8 gasoline engine models in 1992 and applied to Tdi diesel engine models in 1993. In the same year, the 3.9-liter V8 gasoline engine used in the Range Rover also began to be discovered and adopted. Since then, it is not uncommon for this kind of priority to supply the Range Rover and to be discovered and inherited.

  It was not until the early 1990s that Land Rover became interested in its four-wheel drive models, which had a strategic alliance with Leyland. Honda noticed that Land Rover found that sales were extremely hot, and it was particularly jealous of the great success of competitors such as Hehe in the field of off-road vehicles, so it finally decided to produce the OEM model discovered by Land Rover-Ross Road. The car is only sold in Japan, which is also the first overseas model sold under a Japanese brand. Honda Crossroad only has a 3.9-liter V8 gasoline engine with a 4-speed automatic transmission. Except for the logo, Honda Crossroad and Land Rover find no difference.

  Also in 1993, Land Rover introduced the discovery of a 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder engine. This power system originated from Rover T16 car. Because of its complex structure and high speed, it is not common in four-wheel drive vehicles that focus on multi-road driving. Although this 2.0-liter engine is powerful, its torque is far less than that of V8 gasoline engine and Tdi turbocharged diesel engine. In the same year, Land Rover launched the Discovery Commercial Edition in order to create a market segment. The car was built on the basis of the Discovery Three-door Edition. The rear seat was cancelled and a closed carriage was adopted, which greatly improved the loading capacity. The mechanical structure was consistent with that of the ordinary version. Consumers could choose gasoline or diesel engines. The car was born just in time for the discovery of a small change, and the headlight size was increased. In order to cope with the new regulations, the brake lights were moved to both sides of the rear bumper, the driver became standard, and the blue interior was no longer used.

  At this time, Land Rover found that its position in the market of similar vehicles has been hard to shake, and the sales volume of diesel vehicles is nearly four times higher than that of gasoline vehicles. In order to improve the attractiveness of gasoline vehicles to consumers and balance sales volume, Land Rover launched a new 3.9-liter V8 engine for discovery, and the maximum power of the engine was increased from the previous 164 horsepower to 180 horsepower. Only a five-door version found that this new engine was used, and some people even worried that its appearance would affect the sales volume of Range Rover. In 1994, Land Rover entered the North American market for the first time with this model, and it was awarded the title of four-wheel drive of the year with its richer standard configuration and outstanding performance.

  Five years after the first generation of Land Rover was found on the market, Land Rover released a modified model with internal code name "Romulus", which was found to be equipped with a brand-new hood, headlights, front bumper, taillights integrated on the rear bumper and carbon black wheels. The new center console has a more rounded shape, and the overall style tends to be sedan. It adopts the steering wheel style of Rover 800 and is equipped with front airbags. Anti-lock braking system has become the standard of ES flagship model, and other models can be equipped with this safety configuration. In terms of diesel vehicles, 300Tdi replaced the original 200Tdi. Although it belongs to a 2.5-liter turbocharged diesel engine, its performance and exhaust emissions are even better. The 5-speed manual gearbox was replaced by R380 from the previous LT77/LT77S, with smoother shifting and lower noise. After its launch, it quickly became a hot-selling model in the first generation of discovery families.

  While the first generation found hot sales, Land Rover also launched several special editions, including GoodWood commemorative edition, Horse&Hound edition, Camel Trophy racing edition and 50th anniversary edition. Among them, the most striking is the Camel Cup. Camel Cup is a world cross-country race jointly sponsored by Camel, a well-known tobacco company. Land Rover soon set its sights on this challenging South American rainforest race. Land Rover Range Rover took a dominant position in the second race in 1981. During the 16 years of Camel Cup, all Land Rover models won the title of champion, including the first generation discovery. It was found that Camel Cup racing car was painted with the iconic yellow paint, and necessary modifications were made for the race, including the front bumper, wading throat, roof rack, and so on. The chassis and mechanical structure were the same as those of mass production models. With nearly the same chassis structure and lower price as the Range Rover, the first generation Discovery quickly became the main model of the Land Rover family from its birth in 1989 to its official suspension in 1998.

From now on, Guangzhou will implement the acceptance and delivery of express delivery from real-name registration system, and will refuse it without ID card.

  Remember to bring your ID card when sending express delivery, otherwise it will be rejected; If you forget your ID card, you can also show your real-name QR code and scan the code to complete the identity verification. On October 13th, Guangzhou Public Security Bureau, Guangzhou Postal Administration and other departments jointly issued the Notice on Promoting the Acceptance and Delivery of Express Mail in real-name registration system, and the real-name acceptance and delivery information system for mail and express mail will be fully implemented in Guangzhou from now on. At present, the city’s real-name delivery rate has reached 70%, and strive to reach the goal of 100% real-name rate by the end of this year.

  How do citizens receive and send mail and express mail after real-name registration system? Taking the case of sending a package from the above door as an example, the courier brother of Shun× demonstrated the whole process of collecting the package. After receiving the customer’s mailing phone, the courier brother holds a gun (a terminal device similar to the shape of a mobile phone). First, he scans the QR code of the courier waybill to generate the information of the electronic waybill. Then, just like the previous courier delivery, he fills in and enters the names, telephone numbers, addresses and other information of the receiver and sender on the electronic waybill. Next, a new link is identity verification.

  If the customer brings the original ID card, the courier brother will directly put the ID card near Ba Gun, and use its NFC (Near Field Communication) function to read the ID card. When the screen of Ba Gun shows "Certified", it indicates that the identity information verification has been completed, and the customer’s identity information will not be displayed on the screen. After the identity verification is completed, there is also a step of unpacking and taking photos. After unpacking and inspecting the sent items and then taking photos and uploading them, the receiving and sending process is completed.

  What if the customer forgets his ID card? There is another way to complete real-name authentication. First of all, before sending the mail, customers should download a real-name delivery application platform client launched by the State Post Bureau on their mobile phones. This real-name delivery platform is called Anyi Delivery, which can be downloaded from the official website of the State Post Bureau or the APP application market. After the "Anyi Pass" is installed on the mobile phone, the real-name QR code can be generated.

  If you don’t have your ID card, can you just report your ID number? The courier brother said that either show the original ID card or show the real-name QR code, and the ID number can’t be verified.

  It is understood that since mid-July this year, the Municipal Postal Administration and the Municipal Public Security Bureau and other departments have launched the promotion and application of the real-name receiving and sending information system "Anyidi" in an all-round way, and the real-name delivery rate in the city has steadily increased. Since September, the daily average real-name delivery has exceeded 6 million pieces. It is reported that at present, the real-name delivery rate in the city has reached 70%, and we will strive to reach the goal of 100% real-name delivery rate by the end of this year.

  The peak of "double 11" express delivery is coming. Li Xiaoxia, director of the Market Supervision Department of Guangzhou Postal Administration, said that even in the case of relatively large volume, it will ensure that "Anyi Delivery" will be systematically promoted.

  The reporter visited:

  If you don’t show your valid ID, you will be rejected.

  The Circular requires that the sender must present his/her valid identity document when delivering the mail or express mail, and the identity information can be verified by the receiving and sending personnel before receiving and sending it. For senders who fail to produce valid identity documents as required, the delivery enterprise shall not accept and send them.

  Yesterday afternoon, the reporter visited several express delivery points in Jinshazhou, Baiyun District, and found that several express delivery outlets would ask for identity documents when citizens sent the mail. At the business outlet of Baiyun Jinshazhou of Shun × Express, the reporter asked to send the mail, and the courier brother asked the reporter to show his ID card. When the reporter said that he could send the mail without documents, the courier brother clearly refused. "This is a system requirement, and there is no way to get the mail without identity information."

  At this time, a citizen came in to send the mail. After filling in the complete sender’s information, the courier scanned the ID card with a gun, and took a photo of the courier and the goods before starting to pack the express mail. For identity authentication, Mr. Feng, the sender, said with a smile that he could accept it. "It didn’t bring me any trouble to show my certificate, so don’t worry."

  There is also a Shenx outlet dozens of meters away from Shunx outlet, and the courier brother also simply refused the reporter’s request. "Without ID information, there is no way to send you a letter. This is stipulated."

  Information security:

  The collection device does not save the sender information.

  The Notice stipulates that the collected sender information will be uploaded to the corporate headquarters and the State Post Bureau in the form of shielding encryption, and will not be retained or stored in the collection equipment. If the sender’s information is leaked or sold, the legal responsibility of the relevant personnel will be seriously investigated, and if the case constitutes a crime, the criminal responsibility will be investigated according to law.

  Peng Guoan, political commissar of the internal security detachment of Guangzhou Public Security Bureau, said that when the courier brother took the package, he could not see the complete name and ID number on the terminal equipment. If the real-name QR code was used, a new QR code would be automatically generated every time he opened it, and the courier brother could not see the QR code information after scanning with the terminal equipment. At the same time, the sender’s personal information will be directly uploaded to the background of the State Post Bureau and docked with the background of the Ministry of Public Security, so there is no information leakage.

  The Circular also stipulates that relevant functional departments will investigate the responsibility of delivery enterprises that do not implement the real-name acceptance and delivery system in accordance with relevant laws and regulations.

  Number express:

  The daily average business volume is 10 million pieces, and Guangzhou express service accounts for 1/10 of the country.

  According to statistics, in 2016, Guangzhou’s annual express delivery business exceeded 2.8 billion pieces, with an average daily business volume of about 8 million pieces, and the peak of "double 11" reached 28.87 million pieces/day (November 12); In the first half of 2017, the express delivery business in Guangzhou reached 1.719 billion pieces, with an average daily business volume of about 10 million pieces.

  It is reported that Guangzhou’s express delivery business accounts for about 1/10 of the country, accounting for about 4% of the world. The daily business volume is equivalent to the sum of the annual business volume of some cities, and the express delivery business volume has been ranked first in the national cities for many years.

  According to reports, in recent years, Guangzhou police, in conjunction with various departments in the city, urged delivery logistics enterprises to fully implement the "five 100%" system, including 100% real-name registration of delivery, 100% unpacking inspection of delivery, 100% technical security inspection, 100% licensed operation and 100% registration of employees, effectively plugging security loopholes.

  According to statistics, since May this year, the police situation of the delivery logistics industry in Guangzhou has decreased by 5.87% year-on-year. The Public Security Bureau cracked 64 cases of drugs, guns and dangerous chemicals through the delivery logistics channel, up 13.3% year-on-year. In July this year, a transnational drug smuggling case was successfully detected by using the information of delivery logistics channels. Seven criminal suspects were arrested in China, about 2 kilograms of suspected drug ice, 900,000 yuan of drug money and a batch of drug caches were seized, and one suspected drug packaging point was seized. Five suspects were arrested overseas and about 255 kilograms of drug ice were seized.

20 songs in 20 years: the whole network writes AI and sings Wenbo.

The Reverse Charm of AI Music

Intelligent composition style is changeable.

"It’s really unexpected. I didn’t expect AI to use rap to present the lyrics of a classical Chinese genre. I feel very nice and cool!" Liu Yuxin, the lyricist of the song Wenbo Fu, told reporters that her lyrics were inspired by Preface to Tengwang Pavilion, and the genre of parallel prose was very suitable for describing this vast cultural event, while AI was presented with the latest rap, which collided with a surprising spark. The reporter learned that Liu Yuxin, a graduate student at China Agricultural University, flew from Beijing to Shenzhen to participate in the activities.

Luo Shutong, who is only 12 years old, is the lyricist of the song "A Journey to Wenbo". According to reports, "AI Taizi" has tailored Chinese pop-style tunes for Luo Shutong’s lyrics. In an interview with a journalist, she shared that the lyrics were inspired by her novel experience of participating in the ICIF. When she first heard the music written by AI for herself, she was attracted by its light melody. "The tunes created by’ AI Taizi’ exceeded my expectations and were refreshing."

ICIF, the "Art Surfing Area"

Let the music "immerse itself in the end"

The audience auditioned AI to create songs at the ICIF site.

"In the past, I heard about martial arts, but now there are cultural fairs", "Hundreds of rivers gather in the sea of passion, and the world shares the splendor of civilization", "Who will freeze the creativity into a picture of the times, sail on the Silk Road, and make civilization far away" … Twenty songs dedicated to the ICIF were officially sung at the press conference, and the lyricists shared their wonderful stories with the ICIF through lyrics, and AI created songs with different styles according to the lyrics. At the booth of Shenzhen Newspaper Group in Hall 14 of ICIF, the audience can experience the charm of the integration of music and technology in an immersive way.

Explore the future of AI music

Everyone can be a creator.

"Through the invitation to write lyrics on the whole network, we have gathered the wisdom and enthusiasm of many creators. It was also composed by Tencent Music’s Qixing platform AI, and Tianqin Lab AI became a song, which together created 20 songs full of creativity and appeal. " Chen Feifei, vice president of public relations for QQ music market of Tencent Music Entertainment Group, said that with the blessing of AI, ordinary music lovers can also participate in high-quality cultural creation and express their beauty with music.

AI takes the son to assist!

New Opportunities for Future Professional Practitioners

"AI music is the current craze, and we find that AI creation is really convenient and very rich." Night Xiaomei, the manager of the Golden Snail Lyrics label of Shenzhen Hezong Culture Group, which was awarded as an excellent organization, said that for professional practitioners, AI is more instrumental, and it is expected that the intervention of AI will allow more fine products to emerge.

It is worth mentioning that in this music creation, the AI creative partner "unique AI" became the "composer". From Chinese pop full of oriental charm to rhythmic blues, various styles of AI "partners" can be easily switched, and it is expected that AI partners will bring colorful auditory feasts to the audience in the future.


The advantages and disadvantages of the zero-run C16

Some said it was an ideal that could be bought at half price, while others said it was a high-end Hongguang…

What do you think of Zero Run C16? Today we will objectively discuss its advantages and disadvantages.

Advantages:

1 cheap

Zero run C16 is really cheap, the extended range version of the model 155,800, pure electric version 161,800, top 185,800, compared with the previous forecast of the top with no more than 200,000, or conservative, even 190,000 did not exceed.

What concept? Many people do not know, summed up 170,000 the following tram, is the tram, basically without those popular configuration, if there is a global 800V, or high-end intelligent driving, four-wheel drive and other configurations, a reflected in the price of the car is about 20,000 yuan. Zero run C16 although there is no four-wheel drive but to achieve the global 800V into the 160,000, and enjoy the double lifetime free quality assurance policy, there are additional up to 20,000 rights and interests, which is really cheap, this want to buy do not want to buy have to admit and can not refute.

2 6 seats

Zero Running C16 is very sober and not greedy. Its 6-seat layout is not to say that it can be selected, but the whole series has 6 seats, and there is no difficulty in choosing. And it has made a clear distinction with C10 and C11. Both C10 and C11 have a 5-seat layout, and the medium-sized SUV is positioned, while the C10 wheelbase is the same as the C16. If you prefer 5 seats, you can choose C10, and you can take a look at the C11. The subtle difference has played a distinguishing effect, ensuring dislocation competition as much as possible, and not carving up the share of your own brothers’ models.

3 Extended range

Zero run C16 is also very smart, still using the extended range + pure electric dual version layout, without blindly leaving only pure electric or only using extended range, so that the version selection is rich and meets diverse needs. And the extended range version of pure electric battery life is also improved compared to the current model. The pure electric battery life is 200km, although not particularly good, but it is also enough to ensure urban commuting and travel.

4 Cost of car use

The 200km pure electric battery life of the extended range version is sufficient for most family client bases. Although there is a certain gap compared with the 300km + battery life currently appearing in the industry, in most cases, urban commuting and travel can also be satisfied, and it is not like more than 100 km of models that need to be charged every day. Although it is an extended range, the cost of the car is comparable to that of pure electricity.

5 15-200,000 range, not many opponents, fill the scarcity

Zero run C16 comes at the right time, currently in the 15-200,000 price range, 6 + range extension/pure electric + SUV, you can choose high-end smart driving, or even pure electric all-domain 800V models, there are really not many choices. Star Era ET counts as one, Dongfeng Yipai 007 counts as one, but Star Era ET has 6 seats, Dongfeng Yipai 007 although the space is large enough, the price threshold is also high, and the performance of smart driving hardware and software is not as good as Zero Run C16. Zero Run C16 currently has not many competitors directly competing for the bid, and has a unique advantage to occupy the market.

6 The value preservation rate can predict the future in this range

Lifetime double free, the first owner of the vehicle lifetime quality assurance, as well as free three electricity lifetime quality assurance, the price threshold is low enough, combined with what we mentioned above, there are not many competing products, sales performance will not be too bad, value preservation rate should also be able to perform.

7 There are smart drivers to choose from

Zero Run C16 I dare say that the most attractive place for consumers, in addition to the low price and 6-seat layout, is the price of the high-end smart car, the functional configuration is not mentioned now, just say NVIDIA Orin-X chip + Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 chip, two combined models, one is lower than 19.2 million? Zero Run C16 brings.

8 details are still in place

The details are still in place, need to superimpose a premise, that is, combined with the price point of view, 150,000 models, that is, the previous conventional joint venture A-class car landing price, can now buy zero run C16, look at the center console design and door panel details processing, 15.6-inch rear entertainment screen and 21 speakers, as well as 360-degree panoramic images and wireless fast charging and other functions, the details of the design of the same price model is still in place, but you have to say and wise or ideal brands, it is obviously not a level and texture.

9 The adjustable angle of the third row seat back is large enough

The third row of seats can achieve 10 degrees of freedom of adjustment, unlike previous MPVs or 7-seat SUVs. The third row of seats is equivalent to a small bench, leaving no room for choice. It maximizes seat equality and offers a convenient and comfortable car experience.

10 Lifetime quality assurance and charging piles

At this price, the product power itself is flying, and Zero Run C16 also gives a lot of additional rights, such as the installation of free home charging service sets, as well as upgrade package optional packages, etc., free basic traffic, and lifetime free quality assurance for the whole vehicle and free three electricity lifetime quality assurance. For car owners, it is more worry-free and more reassuring.

Disadvantages:

1 ugly

The ugliness of Zero Run C16 is not the same as the ugliness of Nezha L. It is not the unconventional ugliness of Nezha, but the appearance is not as expected. The main reason is the size limit. Although the design language is close to the ideal, the overall visual effect is not as ideal as the ideal atmosphere, and the cramped car length limits the fluency and visual effect of many lines.

2 The third row can only be used for emergencies, but the second row is more comfortable for a family of four

The wheelbase of 2825mm, although the official has repeatedly claimed that the room rate is high, but from the data, it can be known that it is only relatively "high", and the seats in the third row are still not very comfortable and really equal. It can only be said that it is used for emergencies. If the third row wants to sit, then it is based on the premise that the driving comfort of the first and second rows must be discounted. But if it is a family of four traveling, then the second row can be called comfortable. The third row is much stronger than the small bench, and it cannot be as comfortable as the front seat.

The armrests of the second row of seats are too narrow and uncomfortable

The second row of seats is comfortable, but there are also some small defects, such as the armrests are too narrow, the visual effect is not good, and the ride comfort is also average. Why do you say that, because to ensure the width and comfort of the aisle leading to the third row is based on the premise of shortening the width of the armrests, which is inevitable, but it also affects the comfort performance of the second row of seats.

4 No car refrigerator (6-seater car has a client base that values this)

Speaking of this, I think of a small oolong. When I wrote about Zero Run C16 before, I always like to use a label that is a refrigerator color TV large sofa, mainly to describe the rich configuration. Many fans have left comments saying that C16 does not have a refrigerator. Yes, Zero Run C16 does not have a car refrigerator, which is also a pity. After all, the cost of adding a car refrigerator is not high, and the client base that really needs 6 seats still values this configuration. They can use it, but you can’t do without it. Zero Run C16 is a bit of a pity.

5 Poor audio tuning

Everyone’s acceptance and expectations for in-car audio equipment are different. Zero Run C16 brings 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos’ 21 speaker system with a power of 2160w, which claims to be comparable to high-end brands such as Ideal and NIO, but the actual experience is just passable.

6 The new car still smells a bit peculiar

New cars still have a certain odor. Nowadays, the odor control of many new models has been well done, and the zero-run C16 still needs to be strengthened and improved.

The whole vehicle has a sense of cheapness, and there is still room for upward design

Cheap is really cheap, but you can think about it again if you are not in a hurry, because many configurations are not equipped, let’s not mention four-wheel drive, just say that the car refrigerator, rear massage, leg support, and rear ventilation do not appear. The configuration is really cross-level, but in many places, it is also visible cost savings. It is slightly cheap, and there is still room for improvement in the design.

8 Second row seats without massage

The seat of Zero Running C16, the second row should be the top priority of comfort, but the actual performance is just passable, there is no zero gravity seat, the entry version lacks seat ventilation and heating, the second row of seats does not support massage, and there is no leg rest.

9 The height of the co-pilot cannot be adjusted

From the configuration table, it can be seen that the co-pilot of the Zero Running C16 series does not support high and low adjustment, but only supports front and rear and backrest adjustment. Additionally, the entry-level models with extended range and pure electricity do not support seat ventilation and heating, nor do they have a small rear table board, which affects the driving experience to a certain extent.

10 McPherson front suspension

Compared to the same price model, the rear suspension of the Zero Run C16 uses a five-bar design, which is a plus, but the front suspension uses a McPherson-style independent suspension. Of course, everything depends on the price. Family cars are used more, with average stability, simple structure, small space, and low cost. It can also be understood that it appears on the Zero Run C16.

All in all, don’t have too high expectations for Zero Run C16, the price of others is here. There is no doubt that the product is worthy of the price.

Smart R7 259,800, but add 60,000 to enjoy more 140km battery life

Author: Zhao Xin

??Editor-in-chief comments:Positioned as a pure electric medium and large SUV on the market, in terms of starting price 259,800, it can only be said that it is not cheap, but when seeing the official battery life data of 667km, it is a bit unbearable, which is a bit less benchmarking. After all, more and more cars in the same class either have a battery life of more than 700km, or the price is cheaper… At this time, someone wants to say, isn’t there a 802km battery life version of Zhijie R7? That’s right, but look at the price, 60,000 more than the whole price, but the battery life is about 140km more. Compared with other competitors who only need to spend 20,000 to 30,000 more to cover 150km up and down, the sense of choice of Zhijie R7 seems to be very tough. There is no impression that consumers will like it if they spend a little more.

??On September 24, 2024, at Huawei’s autumn full-scene new product launch conference, the Smart R7 was officially launched. The new car is positioned as a pure electric medium and large SUV, and it is also the first coupe SUV of Hongmeng Zhixing. It is produced on the Ling chassis platform and equipped with an intelligent road condition identification system. The whole system is equipped with an 800V silicon carbide high-voltage platform as standard, and is equipped with the HUAWEI ADS3.0 end-to-end human-like intelligent driving system that will be fully pushed. A total of 4 models are launched, and the price range is 25.98-33 9,800 yuan. Official data show that the order volume of the new car has exceeded 30,000 units in less than two weeks of pre-sale. Among them, the Max and Ultra versions will start mass delivery on October 15, and the Pro version will start mass delivery on November 15.

??The exterior of the new car adopts a similar design language. On the basis of the closed air intake grille, willow-leaf headlights are added and connected by a through belt, with a relatively wide front surround, which caters to the positioning of its own high-end new energy SUV. The lower air intake grille is equipped with an active air intake grille function (AGS), which can reduce the wind resistance coefficient. The side shape of the car is round and full, and the roof line starts to fall back from the B pillar, creating a unique back line of the coupe. The design of the four-wheel four corners is conducive to maximizing the cabin space. With the blessing of design details such as hidden door handles, frameless doors, and matte hollow double five-spoke wheels, it can fully display the dynamic beauty and fashion elements of its profile. The new car will be equipped with 20-inch double five-spoke wheels as standard, with optional 21-inch double ten-spoke wheels. The tires are Pirelli P-Zero series or Scorpion series, and the interior is also equipped with Brembo red brake calipers. The length, width and height of the body are 4956/1981/1634mm, and the wheelbase is 2950mm. The rear of the car adopts a minimalist style design, and the popular through taillight element is not absent. Due to the use of a hatchback design, the trunk opening is larger, which enhances the convenience of daily pickup. In terms of body color, in addition to the classic ceramic white, deep space gray, gilt black and metropolis red color scheme, there are also two new colors of purple and clear blue, a total of 6 colors to choose from.

??The car is equipped with the family’s iconic yacht-style environmentally friendly cockpit, equipped with HarmonyOS 4 smart cockpit and HUAWEI SOUND sound system, and also equipped with Huawei Dry + ADS 3.0 high-end intelligent driving assistance system, which supports high-level intelligent driving functions such as off-vehicle parking, valet parking, and summoning. The official said that the trunk of the new car is equipped with a three-layer partition design and has an 837L volume, which can easily fit 3 28-inch and 1 20-inch suitcase. The second row can also be expanded to 2130L after being laid down. It is worth mentioning that the new car is also equipped with electric sunshades.

??The new car is developed based on the Turing chassis platform. It adopts the suspension combination of front virtual kingpin double fork arm + rear five links. It will be equipped with CDC variable damping shock absorber and air suspension as standard in the whole series, and is equipped with intelligent road condition identification system. Its power system will continue to be equipped with Huawei motor system, with single motor and dual motor versions. The whole series is equipped with 800V silicon carbide high-voltage platform as standard. CLTC conditions provide 667km, 736km, and 802km three battery life options, and will be equipped with the HUAWEI ADS3.0 end-to-end human-like intelligent driving system that will be fully launched soon, supporting high-level intelligent driving functions such as off-vehicle parking, valet parking, and summoning.?
