Shangjie H5: 149,800, Huawei Smart Drive+SAIC Chassis
There is a "hard-core linkage" at the SAIC test site. Jia Jianxu, president of SAIC, and Huawei Yu Chengdong took a test drive in the same car. The fact that two heavyweights gather in a car itself shows the status of this car: it is not a small role, but is played as an "explosion candidate".
Space and chassis: to be a "true three-seater"
After Yu Chengdong’s test drive, the first sentence was "value for money", and he gestured the rear legroom on the spot, with more than two fists. What is revealed behind this is the product idea-it must satisfy the family to really sit comfortably. Unlike many compact SUVs, which regard the third row as a "children’s emergency seat", Shangjie H5 is practical. SAIC has accumulated a lot in chassis adjustment. If we can balance the ride comfort and the sense of control, then the "300,000 feelings" of this car is not a slogan, but a practical experience.
Standard for smart driving: don’t play "routines"
The most attractive thing for me this time is that Huawei ADS 4.0 is standard in the whole system. Nowadays, many smart cars on the market are "graded fees". For example, Tesla has to subscribe to the optional equipment. However, H5 directly put all employees on the full blood version, avoiding consumers’ repeated struggle about "whether to add money". From the perspective of competition, this is actually reducing the decision-making cost of users, and at the same time, it has really brought Zhijia into the mainstream consumer groups.
Endurance and recharge: laboratory data or reality?
The pure electric version is 655 kilometers, the extended range version is 1300 kilometers, and the 800V fast charge is 10 minutes to replenish 300 kilometers. These data are very eye-catching in the press release. But data is one thing, and actual experience is the key. I have driven an 800V platform car before, and charging in the high-speed service area is really fast. The effort to buy coffee can increase by more than 100 kilometers, but only if the piles can keep up. If H5 really realizes "worry-free recharge", it depends on its compatibility with the social charging network. Otherwise, no matter how beautiful the numbers are, the landing experience will be discounted.
Channel expansion: a signal worthy of attention
At present, more than 1,500 dealers have joined, and even stores that originally sold Porsche and Volvo have switched. This actually shows the dealer’s judgment: they are willing to invest money to bet, indicating that they are optimistic about the sales prospects. For consumers, this means that the future after-sales service and maintenance outlets will not be sparse, which is more realistic than simply "whether the car is good or not."
Price rumor: Do you really want to break through 200,000?
The starting price from the Internet may be 149,800. If this is true, it is equivalent to directly "knocking off the table" the 200,000-class SUV market. We must know that the intelligence and battery life of new energy SUVs at the same level will either shrink or increase money. If H5 really packs Huawei’s smart driving, long battery life and 800V fast charging, and then gives it this price, many families may not consider joint venture fuel when they buy new energy vehicles for the first time.
Pour some cold water: the explosion is not only dependent on parameters.
Of course, the market will not just look at the starting data. The challenge for new brands is stability and long-term experience. Can the intelligent driving system continue to be stable under complex road conditions? Can the battery and the three-electricity system withstand a few years of car use? These are the keys to decide whether it can become a "national car". I stepped on a similar pit myself, and was attracted by publicity when I bought a car. As a result, I actually found that Zhijia often fell off the chain in the city road. For consumers, it is peace of mind to spend 150 thousand on a car map, not to be a "white mouse" every day.
summary
The product strength of Shangjie H5 is obvious: spacious space, complete intelligent driving function, excellent endurance performance and rapid expansion of sales channels. If the starting price really starts from 149,800 yuan, then it is indeed eligible to become a "new competitor in the 200,000-class SUV market". However, whether it can become a "national explosion" depends on its performance in the actual use environment. My suggestion is: after the test cars are put in place, experience them first and then make a decision. Don’t be confused by the superficial figures.
