AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)12/22 Report--

Some netizens revealed that GAC NE AION S car owners collectively defended their rights a few days ago, complaining about manufacturers' false propaganda, deceiving consumers, and driving mileage 630,360. Judging from the license plate logo, this rights protection incident is for some Shenzhen car owners.

According to the pictures provided by netizens, a number of GAC NE AION S electric vehicles participated in the rights protection action at that time, and their bodies were uniformly posted with rights protection banners, mainly aimed at the serious decline in mileage.

GAC NE Aion S officially went on the market on April 27, 2019. After deducting the subsidy, the actual price is 13.98-205800 yuan. There are 530km and 630km models respectively. The manufacturer advertises that the constant speed range corresponds to 510km and 630km respectively, but the car is actually 410km and 510km in the NEDC comprehensive mileage data commonly used in the industry.

Manufacturers use "60km/h constant speed service" as the model name, and highlight the data of constant speed service in the official publicity, which is a kind of misleading behavior to consumers. For consumers who have just come into contact with new energy vehicles, when they see the maximum mileage data in the promotion of manufacturers, it is easy to think that they can run 510km and 630km at full charge, but the real data with reference significance is the NEDC comprehensive mileage, coupled with the characteristics and extra wear and tear of the battery during use, there will be a discount decline in battery mileage. There is a big gap with the mileage in the impression of consumers.

From the rights protection action process, "mileage 630 to 360", it is clear that this part of consumers have mistakenly believed that the constant speed range advertised by manufacturers is the ideal performance, due to a large gap in the protection of rights. If calculated on the basis of the comprehensive range of 510km of the Aion S, the actual mileage of the owner will be reduced by 30 per cent.

The promotion of the "unhealthy atmosphere" of maximum constant speed service has become a major means for the competition and survival of some domestic brands of electric cars, which is also a "hoodwinking" behavior in the eyes of netizens. As early as March this year, people in the industry and car companies have spoken out and called for a ban on the promotion of maximum constant speed service.

Li, founder of Automobile House and CEO of ideal car, wants to criticize the car companies for such propaganda on Weibo, saying that the electric car still promoting driving at the same speed as 60km/h is so shameful that it even pastes such false mileage figures on the car's butt. "Don't get smug with these humiliating propaganda."

Under the criticism of Li Xiang and most of the media, many car companies have given up the promotion and selling point of the maximum constant speed service, and instead only use the NEDC integrated life logo. For example, both Xilai and Xiaopeng have removed the promotion of the maximum speed extension.

Today, GAC NE's official website still takes "constant speed service" as a selling point, which may also be one of the reasons for the emergence of many car owners' collective rights protection of the brand. An industry insider said, "waiting for speed to continue to promote the car must be drinking poison to quench thirst."

At the end of November this year, a number of ride-hailing drivers in Hunan who bought GAC NE's Aion S electric car collectively protected their rights. Drivers said that the 630s Aion S electric car, which had been driving for some time, was equipped with warm air equipment due to the recent sudden drop in temperature, and found that the mileage was seriously inconsistent with the advertised 510km and could only run about 260km, a gap of half.

Due to the serious reduction in mileage, the establishment of operations has risen sharply, causing collective dissatisfaction among ride-hailing drivers and asking 4S stores for advice many times.

The person in charge of GAC NE 4S store gave such an explanation, saying that the lack of mileage was related to the driver's operation, not false propaganda. The person in charge also said that the mileage is tested according to the documents of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and is based on the official issued by the national documents, and that "the battery is like a human being. It is afraid of cold in winter and hot in summer, which is the characteristic of the battery." therefore, it is a great test of the master's driving habits. "

Since the beginning of winter, the incidents of safeguarding the rights of new energy vehicle owners have occurred frequently, and the dissatisfaction of car owners has emerged, which is almost related to the serious reduction of mileage. Sun Fengchun, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, once pointed out that the standard mileage of new energy vehicles is actually an ideal mileage when air conditioners are not turned on at room temperature, which cannot meet the needs of users and is a hoax to the common people! He gave an example: "Today's electric cars are afraid of the cold." In a test, the electric car can drive 160 kilometers at room temperature, but it is only more than 60 kilometers at minus six degrees, and it can't drive at minus 20 degrees. "

It should also be reminded here that as the physical bottleneck of the battery can not be solved for the time being, consumers should understand the physical characteristics of new energy vehicles before buying, have a clear understanding of battery life, and consider the actual situation before deciding whether to buy new energy vehicles.
