AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)07/20 Report--

In the face of the impact of many factors, such as the decline of new energy subsidies and the impact of novel coronavirus, the new energy market continues to be depressed this year, and such an environment has also led to the collapse of many new car-building forces. However, for Timi, which was officially established only last year, the first model has been offline and pre-sold in just one year, and the move is very rapid.

A few days ago, Timi ET5, the first intelligent pure electric intermediate SUV, officially opened its pre-sale, with a pre-sale price of 150000 ~ 200000 yuan. The new car has three endurance versions and four models with mileage of 404km, 410km and 520km. It is understood that the new car will be officially launched in the third quarter of this year.

You may not know about Timi, although the Timi brand was officially launched at the end of December last year and announced its entry into the new energy passenger car market. Timei's first new car was scheduled to launch in 2021. On the face of it, Timi looks like a new power car company, but in fact, this is a new brand after Skyworth founder Huang Hongsheng started his second business.

In 2011, Huang Hongsheng founded Kaiwo Group again, setting up its Nanjing Jinlong Group with new energy commercial vehicles as its main business direction, and in November 2019, Huang Hongsheng founded Jiangsu Tianmei Automobile Co., Ltd. Although Timi Automobile was established not long ago, Timi Automobile belongs to Kaiwo New Energy vehicle Group, so it can also be regarded as a brand of pure electric commercial vehicle to pure electric passenger car market, and has Skyworth technology and Kevo manufacturing technology precipitation for many years, and Timi ET5 is the company's first mass production model.

In appearance, the overall shape of Timi ET5 is fashionable and stylish, and the middle net of the front face adopts a closed design, which connects the headlights on both sides together through the design, coupled with matrix headlights, which has a strong degree of recognition and visual impact.

On the side of the body, the overall line of the new car is relatively smooth, and the waistline extends from the front wing to the taillight, which is relatively simple as a whole. In the rear of the car, the taillights still adopt the current popular through-type design, while the fog lights with vertical triangles on the left and right sides are very individual. While the length, width and height are 4698/1908/1696mm, the wheelbase reaches the body size of 2800mm, which also positions Timi ET5 as a medium-sized SUV.

In terms of interior decoration, Timi ET5 is also on the right track. The 12.3inch LCD meter and 12.8inch central touch screen are not very outstanding equipment at the moment.

In terms of power, the maximum power of the motor is 204hp, the peak torque is 320Nm, the energy density of the ternary lithium battery pack is 170Wh/kg, the battery capacity is 71.98kw h, and the NEDC mileage is 520km.

From the point of view of Timi's first model ET5, it does not have a particularly outstanding bright spot, no matter in terms of appearance or interior decoration and power, so it can only be regarded as a regular product for Timi ET5. Today, the performance differentiation of the new power car enterprises has been very obvious. Timi, as a member of the new power car enterprises, is undoubtedly full of unlimited challenges on the road of future development.
