AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)07/18 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.

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

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. 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. According to the official website, the current polar krypton 001, whether single motor or dual motor, has two peak torque, which means that both single motor and dual motor may be equipped with Nippon Electric and Weirui Motor.

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 is actually a Geely car product.

Some car owners said that the vehicle type declaration is a lengthy process, and many car owners chose polar krypton 001 to take a fancy to its power performance. However, the latest declaration information shows that polar krypton 001 is not equipped with the officially advertised Japanese electric motor. After being replaced with its own motor, the power performance has changed significantly, and this situation has never been officially told if the subsequent delivery model is equipped with Weirui electric motor. Is there any mismatch and false propaganda in extreme 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. However, there are also netizens for the analysis of the two motors, that the extreme speed of the two motors, acceleration, NVH basic, energy consumption and other aspects are not too different.

In response to the condemnation of the car owner, the polar krypton official issued a notice on the polar krypton APP, which responded to the owner's questions about the polar krypton 001 motor / battery supplier, suspension supplier, charging system, delivery sequence, delivery compensation, option price and so on. The specific contents of the announcement are as follows:

The official response of polar krypton also raises a lot of questions. Some car owners said that although the maximum wheel end torque of the two motors is the same, are there any differences in other parameters? If it is inconsistent, I hope you can list the differences. Some car owners said, is the price of domestic motors the same as that of imported motors? If it is not the same, is it necessary to make up for the difference to the car owner? Some car owners said that since the wheel end torque of the two models is the same, and there is no difference in zero acceleration, can the car owner freely choose the motor?

Obviously, although polar krypton publicly responds to car owners' questions, car owners still have a lot of questions about polar krypton products after the replacement of motors. In fact, it is not that car owners do not accept domestic motors. If polar krypton advertises their own Weirui motor at the beginning, car owners probably will not care so much, but as consumers, polar krypton has "secretly" updated the motor type. and it was only after the car owner found out that the extreme krypton practice more or less made the car owner chill.

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. 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.

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."

For the recent occurrence of extreme krypton cars, some industry insiders said that the high-end car brand is currently a red sea, and if you want to break out of it, the first task is to do a good job in brand word-of-mouth and good service to the first batch of users. strive to produce a good reputation after the delivery of the whole vehicle, and then gradually eliminate the negative impact. However, under the frequent attacks, the trust of the polar krypton brand has been affected.
