the model 5 that tesla failed to build was built by jiyue.

tonight, the jiyue 07 was officially launched on the market with a starting price of 209,900 yuan and a limited-time discount of 199,900 yuan. as a standard "532" mid-to-large coupe, this price caused quite a stir.

a few key words can help you understand this car: the world's only high-end pure vision, a maximum range of 880km, electricity cost of 3.7 yuan per 100 kilometers, charging speed of one kilometer per second, and three air conditioners in one car...

of course, the best feature is its intelligent driving.

xia yiping, ceo of jiyue, started by showing a ppt with a fill-in-the-blank question: there are __ __ smart cars on this planet.

the two words left blank in the middle are " strongest”。

xia yiping said that considering the possibility of controversy, he removed these two words, but the meaning of this page of ppt is self-evident. in his opinion, jiyue 07 is a the model 5 that tesla didn’t build

in addition, many big names were present at the launch of the jiyue 07, such as li bin, ceo of nio, robin li, ceo of baidu, zeng yuqun, chairman of catl, and geely chairman li shufu also specially recorded a video.

after experiencing a sales slump, it seems that jiyue will rely on the 07 model to make a comeback.

01

asd on par with tesla fsd

the biggest advantage of jiyue 07 is still its intelligent driving. according to official statements, it is the only one in the world and the only one in china with pure visual high-level intelligent driving. l4 autonomous driving technology empowers family cars for the first time

at the end of august, the jiyue v2.0 version software was officially released and first installed on the jiyue 07. jiyue ppa intelligent driving was also upgraded to baidu's most cutting-edge intelligent driving technology product asd (apollo self driving), realizing the implementation of pure vision + end-to-end large model.

therefore, jiyue asd and luobo kuaipao have the same origin, and can achieve full coverage of highways, complex urban scenes, etc. combined with the 3d lane-level navigation sr map, it can realize free movement from point a to point b, and also supports valet parking up to 2 kilometers.

in other words, it can be achieved advanced intelligent driving from parking space to parking space

at present, asd has updated and optimized a total of 106 functions including pilot assistance, valet parking, advanced lane keeping and active safety, which can realize the capabilities of obstacle braking and avoidance, obstacle bypassing between lanes, and parking in extremely narrow parking spaces.

xia yiping said that asd can be by the end of 2024, the whole country will be able to open, which means it can be used anywhere there is baidu maps.

in terms of active safety, new two-stage brake, mainly after optimizing the aeb algorithm strategy, slowing down first and then braking hard, further improving the safety and experience of intelligent driving.

a new cornering aeb function has also been added, which can accurately respond to sudden crossing behaviors of pedestrians, express trucks, takeaway trucks, etc. in curves, helping car owners to brake in time.

although jiyue adopts pure visual high-end intelligent driving, its perception ability is not bad. its 3d accuracy can reach the centimeter level, with 360-degree coverage of the surrounding environment of the vehicle body and a perception distance of 250 meters.

for example, it can identify mineral water bottles within 200 meters, distinguish green plants, temporary construction fences, broken-down vehicles parked on the side of the road, and predict the movement trajectories of pedestrians.

we all know that the current autonomous driving routes of car companies are mostly a combination of lidar + high-precision maps + rule algorithms, while the jiyue 07 is pure vision + end-to-end large model, which coincides with tesla's route.

however, unlike the one-stage large model used by tesla, jiyue uses the domestic mainstream two-stage segmented large model solution

according to the previous explanation by wang liang, chief r&d architect of baidu's intelligent driving, the difference between the two-stage and one-stage models is that the one model is replaced by two models, perception and decision-making planning. both can reduce code and rules, and can also improve the upper limit of driving experience by absorbing large amounts of data.

however, the model's black box system will affect the user experience and it is difficult to control the content of the system output; at the same time, it also lacks transparency, and it is difficult for engineers to debug the decision logic in the system.

in addition, the upper limit of the technical requirements of a large model is very precise, but sometimes the lower limit is also very speechless, facing more difficult long-tail problems, which cannot absolutely guarantee safety.

therefore, jiyue chose a two-stage solution. to put it simply, the existing technology level has not yet reached the requirements of a one-stage large model solution.

in terms of scene understanding intention, jiyue asd has doubled the processing timeliness for scenarios such as pedestrians crossing the road and ghosts poking their heads out, reduced the risk of collision by 50%, and the maximum braking speed of forward aeb has also been increased to 100km/h.

at the press conference, xia yiping called the high-precision map + lidar solution the "classical intelligent driving era", and the future industry intelligent driving solution will move towards " pure vision + end-to-end” direction.

he also made a prediction:

2025 will be the first year that non-high-end intelligent driving vehicles will be eliminated, and cars without intelligent driving will completely lose their competitiveness.

the car built by the three giants

in addition to intelligent driving, hardware is also essential.

the jiyue 07 is built based on geely auto's sea vast architecture and uses catl's kirin batteries. from this point of view, the people behind the jiyue 07 are all powerful.

at the press conference, zeng yuqunas owner no. 001, he got the key to the jiyue 07. he also made a rare speech on the stage, saying that baidu is responsible for intelligence and catl is responsible for electrification, all for the purpose of building a better car robot.

from the styling point of view, it is indeed in line with baidu's intelligent temperament. for example, the short front and rear overhangs and the long wheelbase with a large sloping back design make it very recognizable.

the atmosphere inside the car is also well grasped. for example, most of the physical buttons have been cancelled, the 35.6-inch 3d borderless integrated screen is particularly eye-catching, and the u-shaped steering wheel is also very unique.

with the battery technology of catl, the jiyue 07 can achieve a range of 600km after charging for 10 minutes. 1 kilometer can be charged in 1 secondthe official said that it is the fastest charging model in mass production worldwide.

as a c-class pure electric sedan, the energy consumption of jiyue 07 is 12.4 degrees per 100 kilometers, which means that it only costs 3.7 yuan to run 100 kilometers.

currently, there are three versions of jiyue 07. the standard version has a cltc range of 660km, the long-range version has a maximum cltc range of 880km, and the performance version is equipped with a dual-motor four-wheel drive system with a cltc range of 770km.

the performance version is also equipped with an 800v high-performance electric drive system with a maximum power of 530kw, a peak torque of 653n·m, and a maximum speed of 230km/h. 0-100 km/h acceleration in just 3.5 seconds

in addition to riding on the coattails of geely, baidu and catl, jiyue also took advantage of nio. currently, some of nio's dc charging piles are compatible with jiyue 07, which allows it to achieve coverage of 350+ cities in the short term.

cost-effectiveness, cost-effectiveness or cost-effectiveness

previously, jiyue 01 was launched in october 2023, with a price range of 249,900-339,900 yuan.

from a practical point of view, the price was not very attractive at that time. the bonus period of new energy vehicle development had passed, and the market cake was also being divided. so one month after its launch, jiyue 01 urgently joined the price war: the whole series was reduced by 30,000.

relevant data shows that from january to august 2024, the sales volume of jiyue automobile is insufficient. 6000in comparison, the monthly sales of new car manufacturers such as ideal, leapmotor and weilai have already exceeded 20,000 units.

even the xiaomi su7, which is always dragged into the competition, delivered more than 10,000 units in august, achieving the delivery target of over 10,000 units for three consecutive months. it is expected to complete the annual delivery target of 100,000 units ahead of schedule in november.

faced with dismal sales, xia yiping choked up at a recent press conference and said he felt very uncomfortable too.

after learning from the lesson, the price of jiyue 07 is indeed low enough. after all, it is jiyue’s last stand.

after various discounts were added to the jiyue 07, the starting price directly came to 199,900 yuan, bringing the price of the model built with pure visual high-end intelligent driving, catl batteries, and sea vast architecture to less than 200,000 yuan.

so after the price was announced, many netizens were discussing this car, and the topic naturally focused on "price-performance ratio".

in the price range below 200,000, from a product strength perspective alone, it is difficult for model 3 and xiaomi su7 to gain an upper hand over the jiyue 07. the long-range and performance versions of the jiyue 07 are not inferior to models in the 500,000 or even 700,000 class.

as xia yiping said, "we fought hard."

the price is indeed shocking enough, but in terms of terminal market and traffic, jiyue still needs to stand out. it depends on how much sales jiyue 07 can achieve.
