can an a+ class sedan play some new tricks?

in the era of fuel vehicles, this may be difficult, and it is nothing more than increasing the body size; but in the new energy market, manufacturers have more room to play.

on september 26, aion rt, aion's new a+-class sedan, started pre-sales. the pre-sale price is 119,800-169,800 yuan. it also comes with benefits such as a 99 yuan intention deposit to offset the 3,000 yuan purchase price, and a replacement subsidy of up to 25,000 yuan.

so, what are the highlights of this car? is it worth buying?

1. can good looks be surpassed?

china's automobile market is relatively mature, and people often say "this car doesn't look cheap."

under normal circumstances, a-class cars or a+-class cars are worse in terms of appearance, and appearance is also divided into "levels", but aion rt is a bit "unusual".

aion rt is different from other new energy models on sale in aion. it adopts a new design language, unique headlights, and blackened interior, making it highly recognizable.

the body length of the new car is 4865mm, and the wheelbase reaches 2775mm. it is equipped with a dynamic coupe-style body. the body is slender and has smooth lines, which is more in line with the aesthetics of young consumers.

the rear of the car has compact lines and the split taillights are relatively slender, giving it a more refined feel. many models of the same level give people a relatively "thick" feeling, but aion rt has no such problem at all.

at the same time, aion rt also provides 7 personalized body colors, which further enhances the appearance of the entire car. it is expected that there will be a large number of young consumers among the users of aion rt. if you drive such a car on the street, you will not lose your standing in front of your friends.

when a car with a relatively civilian positioning gives people a "relatively high-end" feeling, then the design is considered good, and aion rt falls into this category.

2. does the a+ class also have lidar?

the leapfrog performance of aion rt is not only reflected in its appearance. judging from the current situation, it is relatively easy for intelligent driving systems to show differences.

under normal circumstances, a-class cars or a+-class models are rarely equipped with lidar in order to reduce costs.

the aion rt is different. this car is equipped with a 126-line variable-focus lidar. the entire car has 27 sets of automotive-grade sensors. it is also equipped with an nvidia orin-x assisted driving chip.

suffice it to say, these things don't look like they should be on a car of this class.

the leapfrog configuration will naturally bring a good smart driving experience. aion rt's intelligent driving system can cover 254 driving scenarios, and it can achieve high-speed and urban nda without high-precision maps, and can easily conquer complex road conditions such as urban roundabouts and road construction.

interestingly, aion rt also adopts a "pre-embedded" method in its design, which means to reserve upgrade space in advance according to the top level of software and hardware in the future. after users buy the car, they can update and iterate through ota.

nowadays, new energy vehicles are developing too fast, and many users are worried about "falling behind after buying them" or being "backstabbed" by manufacturers. aion rt has taken this situation into consideration, so this design is relatively sincere and solves the problems of users. no worries.

3. how is the basic performance?

people often criticize that domestically produced cars like to have refrigerators, color tvs, and large sofas. but from the user's perspective, wouldn't it be a benefit if they could really get refrigerators, color tvs, and large sofas at a reasonable price?

in this regard, aion rt's performance is still good.

aion rt provides a double-layer sofa. the soft surface of the seat is 30mm thick. it has good elasticity and is relatively soft. there will be no obvious fatigue after long-term riding.

not only that, aion rt also provides 943mm of rear legroom and a seating height of 320mm. it has the comfort of a car and the vision of an suv, which is what many consumers want.

in addition, aion rt also provides dual electric sunshades. the sunshades can protect the privacy in the car and protect from the sun. they often appear on some luxury models. from this point, it can be seen that aion rt is relatively be sincere.

of course, as a new energy model, the power system of aion rt is also of great concern to consumers.

this car is equipped with a 400v silicon carbide platform and provides 3c fast charging function. it only takes 18 minutes to charge from 30% to 80%. charging in 10 minutes can increase the range by 200km.

at the same time, aion rt is also equipped with a large battery from catl, with a cruising range of 650km.

this solves the battery life anxiety problem of pure electric models to a large extent. the 650km battery life can already meet the daily car needs of most users. based on a daily commute of 50km, this car can be charged once a week.

during long-distance driving, users only need to spend 10 minutes at a high-speed service area or a charging station at the destination to add 200km of battery life. this experience is actually not much different from refueling.

nowadays, many people give up pure electric models due to battery life anxiety. aion rt solves the battery life anxiety, and its advantage in vehicle cost becomes apparent. this also has a strong appeal to consumers.

4. who are the competitors?

from an objective point of view, many manufacturers can think of creating competitive advantages through "leapfrogging". in addition to aion rt, xpeng mona m03, which was launched some time ago, is also one of them.

compared with aion rt, xiaopeng mona m03 has certain advantages in terms of space, and this car also provides a leading intelligent driving assistance system in its same class. however, it does not have the key configuration of lidar, so in actual practice there may be some discounts on the upper limit of intelligent potential.

in addition, the maximum cruising range of xpeng mona m03 is only 620km, while the aion rt reaches 650km. the 30km range difference may not seem like much, but when you are in a hurry to find a charging pile in a strange place, it is more important that your car can run 30km more.

conclusion

the idea of ​​​​aion rt is very simple. it highlights a "leapfrog" and works hard on consumer pain points such as space, comfort, battery life, and smart driving. it also has a relatively affordable price. from the perspective of the entire auto market, it is still worth it. concerned. finally, i also leave a small interactive question. are you willing to hold the currency and wait for him?
