Can Tesla Model 3 be compared? After the experience, I have a preliminary judgment on Xiaopeng P7

Xiaobian heard that the real car of Xiaopeng P7 came from Shanghai Xiaopeng comprehensive experience center. Naturally, this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity will not be missed. The epidemic is slowly coming to an end, and I am emboldened. It seems that the rolling car life is going to restart again. This experience store is located on the side of the middle ring road, which is convenient to drive to, but it is a bit remote if you choose to take public transportation. Just arrived at the door of the store, it must be a routine operation to stop for temperature measurement and personal information registration. After all, the epidemic has not yet ended, and the safety work must be done in place. Park the car and enter the store. You will still be greeted by the familiar wash free hand sanitizer. Pay attention to it! It's a pity that two sets of P7 came to the store. One is for static display and the other is for outdoor test drive. But because the manufacturer needs to adjust the road for test, so I don't have a chance to experience the test drive when I go to work day. But better than nothing. And you don't have to rush to experience it, because according to the staff, at present, the p7 of Xiaopeng is still in the state of trial loading and hasn't been put into production. Therefore, if consumers want to experience the model version they can buy, they should wait until the official release in April. The official delivery date of Xiaopeng P7 will be about June, and Shanghai will be a little later for policy reasons, about July. Of course, the appointment of Xiaopeng P7 started in April last year, and now it has already exceeded 15000 sets. Although it's cold and rainy in Shanghai these days, there are still an endless stream of visitors in the store. Among them, there are many people who do live broadcast, and take hundreds of people to experience Xiaopeng P7. It has to be said that the market heat of Xiaopeng P7 is really high. All of the above are the previous words, so how about this car? Speaking of Xiaopeng P7, in fact, I saw the real car of Xiaopeng P7 at the Shanghai auto show last April, and then saw its interior design at the end of the year. When I experience Xiaopeng P7 in the exhibition hall, I still feel a little amazing. Of course, it can't be said that the appearance design of Xiaopeng P7 is excellent, after all, everyone's aesthetic is different. For example, the on-site car watchers are also discussing whether the appearance of P7 is too avant-garde or conforms to the trend? For example, its front face design and the rear of the car want to echo each other, using a through type lamp belt with a separate lamp group design on both sides. Although I am not very receptive to the design of the split headlight, because it gives me a very strange feeling, but now it seems to be a trend, which also conforms to the trend. When I came to the tail design, the through type light belt reminded me of the sci-fi movie "mechanical war police". In Xiao Peng's official explanation, the design inspiration of "starlight" really comes from the laser vision of "future combat police" and the lightsaber of "Star Wars". So the appearance of this model is really very sci-fi and avant-garde. In addition, I think it's worth noting that Xiaopeng P7 is equipped with Michelin PS4 sports model and Brembo's four piston calipers. Although I don't know if this will be a full line standard configuration, if you want to buy a high-performance version of the 4-drive P7, these configurations should be just a lot more. However, it may be because Xiaopeng is pursuing the car running design of the vehicle, so the p7 with a length of 4880mm doesn't look very big, which gives me the feeling that it's a standard car. After entering the rear row of Xiaopeng P7, the book wheelbase data is 2998mm, but the rear row space of P7 is not dominant. After the front row is adjusted to the sitting position suitable for me (178cm in height and 65kg in weight), there is about a fist and a half in the rear row's leg space, which is enough, but compared with the wheelbase, it will give people a sense of drop. Fortunately, there is no transmission shaft and exhaust design, so the floor of the back row is not raised high, and the three passengers in the back row can get a good riding experience, which is a real five seat car run. As for why I mentioned the back row first, because I really waited a long time for the driver's seat to get in line. Sitting in the driver's seat, the interior design of Xiaopeng P7 is mainly simple, but it is not the "simple" style like model 3. The central control part is composed of a 10.25-inch full LCD intelligent instrument and a 14.97-inch touch screen, while the entity buttons are almost integrated on both sides of the steering wheel for multimedia control and LCD operation. Compared with model 3, which uses a central control screen instead of all the designs, I personally like this clearly divided design. How can we say that the dashboard is a symbol of the driver's control of the vehicle? How can we say that there is no dashboard? But what surprised me most was that there was a stick on the right side of the steering wheel of Xiaopeng P7 that was the same as that of the fuel car. This design is easy to operate, but compared with the rest of the interior design, it's very "fuel-efficient" and doesn't always match. As for the aspect of vehicle and machine that many people are concerned about, because the version of the vehicle and machine system on the p7 in the exhibition stand has not been updated, the currently displayed pictures are all demonstration videos, which can not be operated by hand, so we can only feel that the display effect of these two screens is good. In the interior experience, I think the most interesting thing is the sound system of Dana. Like the high-end Berlin voice, the Dana sound of Xiaopeng P7 is equipped with a retractable sound column under the A-pillar, which is full of ceremony when it is started. In addition, two of the 18 loudspeakers of Xiaopeng P7 are located at the headrest of the main driving position. So you will find that P7's main driver's seat and passenger's seat have different shapes, and the main driver's headrest is wider. At first, I thought it was a reference to the design of racing seats, and it was very sporty to watch, but only when I saw the word "Dynaudio" behind the headrest did I find that things were not as simple as I expected. In the publicity of Xiaopeng P7, the professional vocabulary of sky channel, top-level hifi level operational amplifier chip, 600W independent power amplifier and so on are also mentioned. I feel very strong at the first hearing. I really want to feel the sound effect of Xiaopeng P7? What's the optional price of this sound system? In other aspects, the interior workmanship and materials of Xiaopeng P7 are pretty good, especially in the front area of the copilot. I personally think it should be wrapped in genuine leather, which is quite in place. It's just a bit wasteful to watch. If you can add a screen as entertainment equipment, the effect should be better. Since you can't drive on the road, let's talk about the positioning of Xiaopeng P7. In Xiaopeng's official view, the biggest competitor of P7 is Tesla Model 3. Interestingly, there is a Tesla Model 3 in front of Xiaopeng's shop. When I thought it was an official loan for consumer comparison, the staff told me that it was their own employee's car, which happened to be used for comparison when there was a need for live broadcast. Driving Tesla Model 3 to Xiao Peng's work, I think this classmate's grandson must have learned the art of war very well. After all, there is an old saying: "know yourself, know your enemy, and win every battle!" In the eyes of Xiaopeng staff, the advantage of P7 lies in that, at the same price, the endurance of Xiaopeng P7 is longer and the atmosphere in the car is more luxurious. At the same time, their quality control must be better than Tesla. Regardless of luxury and quality control, in terms of endurance, according to AutoLab's electric vehicle comprehensive efficiency list, the energy consumption of Xiaopeng P7 with long endurance rear drive is 11.45kwh, while that of model 3 is 12.5kwh, higher than that of Xiaopeng P7. But Xiaopeng's disadvantage must be its brand power. After all, Tesla is the gold brand of the pure electric market at present. The price less than 300000 yuan after being made in China is really popular for a Tesla. Of course, the starting price of Xiaopeng P7 is only 240000, and there is still a gap with the domestic model 3, which is the biggest advantage of Xiaopeng P7 in front of consumers. So will Xiaopeng P7 become a "real car"?
