will officially come to an end in 2023. Even though major car companies have tried their best this year and made many achievements in terms of brand, products, services, and user co-creation, they still dare not slack off in the face of the unpredictable prospects in 2024.
Perhaps because of this, the domestic auto market at the end of the year shows a stronger smell of gunpowder. On December 23, Weilai’s flagship executive sedan et9 was released with a pre-sale price of 800,000 yuan; on the following days on the 26th, 27th and 28th, Wenjie m9, Jikrypton 007 and Xiaomi su7 will be launched or unveiled respectively. The plan is on the agenda; and in early January next year, the final official prices of Xpeng x9 and Geely Galaxy e8 will also be announced. Its strong lineup, big hits, and high attention are enough to support the "New Year's Eve drama" in the automotive industry.
In fact, compared with Weilai et9 and Xiaomi su7, which have only one character in their horoscope, or the Jikrypton 007, Geely Galaxy e8 and Xiaopeng x9, which have fierce competition in the market segment, the flagship positioning of the Wenjie m9, Black technology blessing is undoubtedly more exciting. Everyone hopes to see the birth of a competing product that can threaten the already excellent Ideal L9, and is also curious about whether the expensive Wenjie M9 can continue the best-selling model of the new Wenjie M7.
On December 26th, those who attended the event or stayed in front of the live broadcast room to watch the Wenjie m9 launch conference may become witnesses of the historical development of luxury technology and smart travel.
For the aito world, 2023 is a year of full development. As early as April, the Wenjie m5 smart driving version was officially launched. The official said that the Huawei ads 2.0 system was "infinitely close to the L3 high-end intelligent driving" and became a hot topic throughout the year. After that, the new Wenjie m7 was launched in September. , and even achieved a record of exceeding 100,000 units in more than two months. At this time, it also realized that being soft on orders was also a "trouble". Similarly, as the most important product of Hongmeng Zhixing of the year, Wenjie m9 is not so much a new car, but it is actually more like a concentrated expression of Hongmeng Zhixing's technological capabilities.
As a flagship large SUV, the Wenjie M9 is priced in line with the Ideal L9, but its positioning has already targeted the flagship SUVs of traditional luxury brands such as Mercedes-Benz GLS and BMW X7. How to create a sense of luxury and nobility has become the top priority for Wenjie m9.
In addition to the powerful aura created by the vehicle length of 5230mm, Wenjie M9 has a 2725mm long cabin passenger space, zero-gravity seats, and standard heating/ventilation/massage functions for the front/second row seats. Business and home scenes create a more comfortable and warm atmosphere; while the 25-speaker Huawei Sound system and the technology cockpit equipped with up to 10 screens create a richer experience for office, entertainment and leisure.
Of course, "configuration stacking" is never a shortcut to success. At least in the flagship SUV camp, the driving quality will not be deceiving, and this has become the "weakness" of almost all new forces. Wenjie M9 is well aware of this. Based on the advantages of Touring's intelligent chassis, it not only has a front double wishbone + rear multi-link suspension combination, as well as air suspension and CDC variable damping shock absorbers, but also has a hardware level. With a good foundation, it also has the capabilities of integrated sensing, dynamic adaptive torque and body collaborative control. Relying on the software system, the driving quality can be improved to a higher level. Comfort, stability, and control allow large SUVs like the Wenwenjie M9 to unleash the charm of driving.
Regarding the level of intelligent driving assistance, Wenjie m9 is equipped with the fully upgraded Huawei ads 2.0 high-end intelligent driving system. How its actual performance is, I believe everyone has learned more about it in the recent "AEB dispute", and at the press conference The video of "turning danger into safety" shared by car owners once again proved Aito World's leading advantage in the field of driving assistance. Driving assistance systems that can perform well in actual combat are far more important than functions that stay on the configuration table.
In terms of power, Wenjie m9 offers four models: extended range version and pure electric version. Among them, the extended range version of cltc has a pure electric range of 225km and a comprehensive range of up to 1362km. It also supports the optional 52kwh battery pack, which can The pure electric cruising range and comprehensive cruising range have been increased to 275km and 1402km respectively; while the pure electric version, based on the cltc pure electric cruising range of 630km, has an acceleration level of 0-100 acceleration time of 4.3 seconds, further giving it smooth driving experience.
It is worth mentioning that Wenjie m9 also has an intelligent lighting system, which can realize functions such as intelligent projection, intelligent interaction and safety reminders, and can bring more practicality, playability and safety to driving; and Linjing The head-up display system brings a more intuitive and immersive real-scene experience to driving. In addition, safety is also one of the "luxury genes" of Wenjie m9. Backed by the strong empowerment of Xuanwu body, it can add another layer of protection at the passive safety level, making you and your family feel at ease.
If you have to ask what the "disadvantages" of Jie m9 are, it must be criticized by many people for being "expensive", and this is one of the few things that can be discussed after comprehensively considering the brand, product, technology and after-sales guarantee. topic of.
But objectively speaking, even though the Wenjie m9 is 10,000 yuan more expensive than the Lideal l9 max, which is priced at 459,800 yuan (the ideal l9 pro is 30,000 yuan cheaper without the lidar and other functional configurations), but its unique With its many leading technological configurations, it is difficult to measure value solely by price; besides, for a large SUV that showcases luxury technological qualities, 10,000 yuan is not much. Looking at it from another angle, knowing that the Ideal L9 is priced and selling well, the Wenjie M9 is more expensive, which requires more confidence and confidence.
Finally, according to aito Wenjie's practice, Wenjie m9 released a "battle report" shortly after it was launched. The achievement of exceeding 10,000 vehicles in two hours gave it confidence in its development next year and greatly boosted its morale.
