AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)07/15 Report--

Out of the frying pan into the fire! Extreme krypton 001 standard configuration has become a paid option, the price increase of new cars is not completely over, polar krypton 001 has been exposed a new problem.

Learned from polar krypton APP, many car owners reflected on APP that polar krypton privately changed the maximum peak torque in vehicle parameters from 384N m and 768N m to 343N m and 686N m respectively, and motor suppliers changed from Japanese electric motor to Japanese electric motor and Weirui motor.

Previously, in the declaration information of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Pole Krypton 001 showed that the motor supplier was Nippon Electric Motor (Zhejiang) Co., Ltd., however, in the latest model details announced by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology on July 13, it showed that Pole Krypton 001 supplied motor to Weirui Electric vehicle Technology (Ningbo) Co., Ltd., with the maximum power of 200kw. Tianyan Cha shows that Weirui Electric vehicle Technology (Ningbo) Co., Ltd. is wholly owned by Zhejiang Jichuang Auto parts Co., Ltd., which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Geely Automobile Group Co., Ltd., that is to say, Weirui Electric vehicle Technology (Ningbo) Co., Ltd. is actually Geely Automobile Sun Company. In addition to replacing the motor with Weirui Electric, the battery supplier of one of the polar krypton 001 declared models has also been changed to Weirui Electric.

Some car owners believe that the model declaration is a lengthy process, and the latest declaration information shows that polar krypton 001 is not equipped with officially advertised Japanese electric motors, and this situation has never been officially told. If the subsequent delivery of the model is equipped with Weirui electric motor, is there any mismatch and false publicity in polar krypton 001? In this regard, some car owners have proposed: 1, car owners who promise to settle down before July 13 are equipped with Japanese electric motors; or 2, open the channel to retreat to Dading, so that consumers are free to go back to Dading. In response to this situation, some netizens said that "it may be a way to reduce costs", while others said that "it has already been regarded as fraud."

Extreme Krypton 001, as a brand-new car brand, is indeed experiencing a big crisis of trust. At the end of last month, it was revealed that polar krypton had begun to "cut leeks" before the new car was delivered, and the original standard configuration became a paid option. For example, the rear row of the polar krypton 001 car is equipped with privacy glass, and the difference in the glass configuration between the WE version and the YOU version is not noted in the official configuration table, but there is no privacy glass in the WE version. In addition, the polar krypton 001 comes from Geely SEA's vast architecture. 800V high-voltage fast charging is a highlight of the car, which can be recharged for 5 minutes and has a range of 120km, but now the owner says the news is that 800V high-voltage fast charging becomes 400V.

In addition to turning the standard into a paid option, the price of the new car began to rise before it was delivered. Some car owners found that the price of the polar krypton 001 WE version has changed from 266000 yuan to 284000 yuan, which means that car owners who decide from June 15 to July 31 will have to pay an extra 5400 yuan for the car. However, the official message given earlier is that the price will not change until July 31 (inclusive). In response to the reasons for the price increase, polar krypton officials said that it was uncertain about the state subsidy policy in 2022.

In this regard, Polar Krypton CEO an Conghui posted "to Z guests-speak your Heart" on Polar Krypton APP, apologizing to users for the recent problems caused by the Polar Krypton brand, made a series of explanations and reflected on its work. An Conghui said in the article, "as a young brand, extreme Krypton is not perfect, and there is still a long way to go. Everyone's every spur is to hope that extreme Krypton will develop better and is the driving force for extreme Krypton to move forward. We will continue to listen to users and welcome everyone to chat with us at any time. We will respond to everyone's concern in a frank and transparent manner and work together to build a great family of extreme Krypton."

On April 15, the polar krypton brand was officially released, and the first model, polar krypton 001, was officially launched, with a total of three new models, with a subsidized price of 28.1-360000 yuan. Extreme Krypton 001 is based on Lecker ZERO Concept and retains the classic split headlights of Lecker. The headlights are integrated with the forward air grille at the same time, coupled with the lower front of the car, the front face of Pole Krypton 001 is still highly recognized. In terms of power, Pole Krypton 001 launched three models, namely long-range dual-motor WE version, ultra-long-range single-motor WE version, ultra-long-range dual-motor YOU version. Among them, the double motor version is equipped with permanent magnet twin electric drive system, the maximum power 400kW, peak torque 768N ·m. The single motor version carries a single motor with RWD, the maximum power 200kW, and the peak torque of 384N ·m. Due to the high appearance of extreme krypton 001, it has attracted much attention from consumers as soon as it is pre-sold. On June 15, Polar Krypton announced that it would suspend the receipt of Polar Krypton 001 from now on. Due to capacity constraints, all deliverable orders within 001 years have been sold out. Less than two months after its launch, extreme Krypton 001 announced a suspension of bookings due to capacity constraints, which is enough to show that the model is no less hot in the market than the current Tesla. However, it is such a highly sought after model that has been mired in a crisis of trust recently.

The image of polar krypton cars in the minds of car owners has been greatly reduced, and the voice of polar krypton CEO has indeed given reassurance to car owners, but it has not long been exposed that the motor is "reduced", and the image of polar krypton has been hit again, and many car owners have cancelled or intend to cancel their bookings. At present, the polar krypton has not yet publicly responded to the car owners' questions about the replacement of the motor and related demands, and we will continue to pay attention to the official developments.
