Can the pure electric G-class Mercedes Benz still be off-road after the battery is installed?

At present, new energy vehicles have become one of the mainstream models in the market, and major manufacturers are gradually turning to the electric strategy. In the face of increasingly stringent emission standards and diversified market demand, the versions of various models have been gradually pushed into the market. In the past, most of the new energy models released by most manufacturers are mainly civil and more affordable Li model, but with the continuous deepening and popularization of new energy models, high-end product models are also expected to further realize electrification. Recently, foreign media reported that Olak llenius, chairman of Daimler and head of Mercedes, said the company would produce a pure electric version of the G-class. According to Mercedes Benz's previous electric vehicle naming logic, the new model may be named eqg and may be officially launched before 2022. At present, there is no reference model for the electric version of Mercedes Benz g, but according to the current Mercedes Benz g, it is speculated that the electric version of Mercedes Benz eqg should be basically consistent with the fuel version of the model, and it will continue to be aggressive and tough. At the same time, in terms of details, it will further make adjustments based on the pure electric version of the model to prove its corresponding electric vehicle identity. In terms of power, although there is not much official data at present, we can see that in the current models on sale, Mercedes Benz G-class can be divided into two models: G500 and AMG g63, both of which are equipped with 4.0t V8, matched with 9at, can produce 421 HP and 585 HP respectively after different adjustment, with score torque of 610nm and 850nm respectively. Therefore, Benz eqg is likely to continue the characteristics of high HP and high power. We all know that the real reason why Mercedes Benz G is known as a powerful off-road tool is that it is equipped with a strong V8 engine, three differential locks, strong off-road performance and luxurious interior design. Therefore, in the pure electric version of the model, we don't need to worry about its luxury degree and its maximum output power. However, if Mercedes Benz eqg is really replaced by a silent power Driving, will its personality and characteristics be completely released like the fuel version? As a vehicle with strong off-road performance, there will be some disputes about its electrification. After all, compared with ordinary fuel vehicles, electric vehicles do not have such a component as the transmission shaft in the body structure. At the same time, we all know that the pure electric version will be several times faster than the fuel version in the power response speed and scene mode switching, but Because of the addition of, its body weight will also be affected to a certain extent, so it will be affected in off-road climbing and the ability to get out of trouble. The main problem is the battery, because in most of the models seen on the market, they have a common feature, that is, the pure electric version of the product will install the battery pack on the lower part of the vehicle chassis, for the general model, it will not be greatly affected, but for the Mercedes Benz eqg, such a position may affect itself Performance. Because as an off-road vehicle, the height of its chassis determines its wading depth and the ability to get out of trouble. If the battery is placed below, once there is a collision in the off-road process, its safety problems will also be threatened. Even if the vehicle enterprises provide a very comprehensive guarantee for the safety of the battery, it can not avoid accidents. There is also the problem of power endurance. Although we don't know the specific parameters of Benz's eqg's endurance mileage, as an off-road vehicle, its endurance mileage may become a short board. After all, most of the off-road vehicles are in the wild. If there is no power battery's endurance capability, it will lose its original significance for Benz's eqg, and it's difficult to be short-term Eliminate the anxiety of customers about the endurance. It can be seen that under the general trend of new energy vehicles, more and more products are turning to electric vehicles, which has become the most urgent demand of vehicle enterprises. Many classic fuel vehicles are also forced to withdraw from the fuel vehicle market driven by the general environment. If they want to return again, they can only "survive" again as pure electric vehicles. But for Mercedes Benz eqg, it's driven by the strategy of electrification or the change of the general environment. It can have a better development in the future only if it adapts to the change of the market. Maybe Mercedes Benz eqg can't have the pure off-road experience like Mercedes Benz G-class, but we still believe that Mercedes Benz has the ability and strength to make it more outstanding, so that the classic can continue.
