On July 20th, 2024, Chedi Summer Test was closed. The data shows that in this summer’s test, the cruising range of new energy vehicles is high, and the performance of domestic models is particularly excellent, and the active safety capability of vehicles has been significantly improved. In terms of battery life, the average battery life of pure electric vehicles is about 500 kilometers, and the overall battery life achievement rate has increased by 5% compared with 2023. All the group test champions have been won by China brands. In terms of active safety, there are 7 models with the highest test speed of 80km/h in rainy night, all of which are China brand models. In terms of intelligent cockpit, the 17 models with voice interaction scores exceeding the average are all China brand models.
China brand performed well.
At the press conference, according to Wang Ruoran, the person in charge of the original test of Knowing Car Emperor, in 2024, the summer test of Knowing Car Emperor was held at the national professional test site-Wuhan Intelligent Networked Automobile Test Site, and the parallel environment of high temperature and rainstorm was closer to the actual car use scene of users in summer.
In the actual test, China brand new energy vehicles performed well as a whole. In terms of endurance energy consumption, the official average cruising range of pure electric vehicles participating in the test is 699.5 kilometers, and the official maximum cruising range is 870 kilometers.
From the actual results, the average cruising range of pure electric cars is 472.5 kilometers, and the average cruising achievement rate is 68.6%. Among them, Xiaomi SU7 won the first place in the cruising range and cruising achievement rate of pure electric cars.
On the list of cruising range of pure electric SUV/MPV, Haobo HT won the champion of cruising range grouping with a score of 663 kilometers, and Extreme Yue 01 won the first place in cruising range achievement rate with a score of 85.8%.
In addition, the average pure electric cruising range of the plug-in/extended range SUV participating in the test is 164.6 kilometers, and the average fuel consumption is 8.8L/100 kilometers. Among them, Wenjie M9 won the plug-in/extended range pure electric cruising range list with a score of 212km, while Deep Blue S7 won the plug-in/extended range power loss fuel consumption list with a score of 6.08L/100km.
On the whole, users basically bid farewell to the anxiety of battery life charging. Xu Haidong, deputy chief engineer of China Automobile Industry Association, said: "The summer test of knowing the car emperor in 2024 reflects the global leadership of China’s new energy vehicles in terms of battery life and intelligent network connection, and shows the whole industrial chain layout of China automobile enterprises. China will eventually be born into a world-class automobile manufacturing enterprise."
Active safety performance has improved significantly.
In terms of intelligence, this test found that the higher the intelligence of the intelligent cockpit, it does not mean that the manual operation is more convenient. For example, the software problems of Volkswagen Group have been criticized by the industry, but in the list of manual operation convenience of smart cockpit, the first place is Volkswagen ID.7Vizzion.. This is worth pondering in the industry, and what consumers really need.
In addition, active safety is another key content of this summer test, which is tested in two scenarios: forward and backward. The results show that compared with the summer survey in 2023, the overall improvement of China brand in active safety is obvious, but there is still room for improvement in the active safety ability of vehicles in the face of complex environment, so we should not take it lightly when driving.
Specifically, in the forward scene of "encountering a faulty car on a rainy night", only 16 of all 35 test cars passed the test at the minimum speed of 60km/h, and the passing rate was less than 50%. Seven models, such as Wujie M7, Weilai ET5, Aouita 12, Zhijie S7, Wenjie M9, Tucki G6 and Tengshi N7, passed the test with a top speed of 80 km/h. From the million-dollar level to the 100,000-dollar level, Baojun Yunyun showed excellent intelligent driving ability in the test.
The backward test simulates the scene of "reversing children crossing". Compared with the forward scene, only 6 out of 35 cars passed the test, with a passing rate of only 17.14%. The backward active safety capability of new energy vehicles needs to be improved due to the imperfect white list database of backward active safety targets and limited recognition ability of sensing hardware.
Another highlight of this summer test is that Ma Qinghua, the champion driver of WTCR, was invited as a tester to test the lap speed of all vehicles and test their ultimate performance. In the end, Zhiji L6 won all the test vehicle championships with a lap time of 2 minutes and 15.06 seconds, while Lectra 08 EM-P won the SUV championship with a lap time of 2 minutes and 19.87 seconds. In addition, in the summer test, subjects such as wetland braking, intelligent cockpit and vehicle privacy were tested, and the vehicle handling, safety and use experience were comprehensively investigated.
Accumulated nearly 3,500 test models.
It is worth noting that at this conference, Knowing Car Emperor officially released the automobile active safety testing system. Wang Ruoran said that relying on the national test site, the future active safety measurement will cover 16 test scenarios in three dimensions, including forward active safety, backward active safety and extreme weather scenarios, and evaluate the active safety performance of vehicles in a multi-dimensional and complex traffic environment in 360 degrees.
According to reports, in 2024, there will be more than 100 vehicles with active safety measurement, covering all popular new energy vehicles, and will simulate various working conditions such as expressways, urban roads, rain and fog environments, and rely on DEMatrix’s high-precision vehicle driving state analysis system to accurately judge the collision speed in real time, making the test process more professional and the test conclusion more accurate.
Wang Ruoran also said that in 2024, the car emperor planned to test 450 models, covering 100% of popular new cars; At the same time, new cross-country and track measurement lists were added; The test content will be expanded to 7 dimensions and 40 subjects.
It is understood that up to now, Knowing Car Emperor has accumulated nearly 3,500 test models, and built an automobile content platform with full scene and systematic test at normal temperature and extreme environment. Wang Ruoran pointed out that compared with previous tests, all the core subjects of the 2024 Chedi Summer Test were broadcast live, and all the test vehicles were purchased by Chedi at his own expense to ensure that the test process was open and fair.
