AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)04/18 Report--

In the latest issue of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology declaration catalogue, the automotive industry has obtained the ideal L9 declaration map. As the second model of the ideal car, the ideal L9 positioning medium and large SUV is expected to sell in the range of 45-500000 yuan.

According to the new car declaration chart issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the ideal L9 abandons the large-size grille design of the ideal ONE and adopts the closed middle grid design of the electric vehicle style, but as an added model, in order to ensure the air intake, the opening of the lower air intake becomes very large, and the active air intake grille is introduced. In addition, the ideal L9 also uses split headlamps, through-type lamp belts can be retained, and uses the shape of seamless lamp belts. In the rear part, the new car is equipped with a small roof spoiler and high brake lights, while the taillights use a single penetrating design, which is obviously different from the current ideal double-layer penetrating type of ONE. In terms of body size, the declaration information shows that the length, width and height of the new car are respectively 5218/1998/1800mm, wheelbase 3105mm, positioning large SUV, similar to BMW X7 and Mercedes-Benz SUV.

As a nanny car, the ideal L9 will adopt a new design language in the interior, such as the integrated design of the central control screen and the co-driver screen, and the second row of entertainment screen on the roof also reaches 15.7in. However, the instrument of the main driver has been removed, and the function has been replaced by the HUD look-up display and the safe driving interactive screen on the steering wheel, which is still very rare in the current market. In addition, the multi-function steering wheel will adopt a four-spoke design.

In terms of smart configuration, the ideal L9 will be equipped with smart driving services, including super smart parking, urban smart driving, multiple attentive car remote calls, smart driving and OTA upgrades. In addition, the car will have L4 self-driving hardware, including AP controller Horizon J3+J5 chip and SP controller customized Orin-X chip, installation of 1 128line lidar, 1 DMS, 5 millimeter wave radar, 12 ultrasonic radar and 12 8m cameras.

In terms of power, the ideal L9 abandoned Dongan's 1.2T three-cylinder driver and replaced 1.5T four-cylinder driver with an intelligent four-wheel drive system. The maximum power of the front drive motor is 130kW, the maximum power of the rear drive motor is 200kW, the total power is 330kW, and the maximum torque is 620N ·m. In terms of mileage, the ideal L9 is equipped with 44.5kWh battery capacity, pure electric 215km under CLTC operating conditions, and comprehensive mileage 1315km, which is not much different from the NEDC standard 1080km of the ideal ONE. In addition, officials also announced that the heat engine fuel consumption of the car in fuel mode is 5.9L/100km (CLTC mode).

Previously, the ideal L9 was scheduled to be officially unveiled at the Beijing Auto Show, but due to the postponement of the Beijing auto show, it is also a mystery when the ideal L9 will be released. According to previous information, there are only two domestic large-scale SUV models, Hongqi E-HS9 and Beijing BJ90, of which Hongqi E-HS9 sells for 50.98-779800 yuan and Beijing BJ90 sells for 99.8-1.288 million yuan. The prices of the two models are not low. However, according to official information, the ideal L9 is a luxury full-size SUV such as the BMW X7 (guidance price 100.00-1.698 million yuan) and Mercedes-Benz GLS (guidance price 104.26-1.329 million yuan). From the price point of view, the ideal L9 price does lower the entry threshold for full-size SUV, but it is insurmountable in brand awareness, and BMW X7 and Mercedes-Benz GLS are not the same consumer group at all.

At present, only ideal ONE is on sale, which is equipped with a 1.2T three-cylinder booster produced by Dongan. Because it is an add-on model, the ideal ONE does not cause a downturn in the market because it is equipped with a three-cylinder driver. Data show that the ideal ONE delivered 11034 new cars in March 2022. From the perspective of a single model, the performance of the ideal ONE is the best product of the new power brand at present, but the oil and electricity has no battery life anxiety, which is the biggest advantage of the ideal ONE and other new power products.
