The 300,000-class pure electric mid-level SUV can be said to be the most competitive segment in the electric car market. No matter independent brands, new power brands, traditional joint venture brands or luxury brands want to get a share of the market at this price.Therefore, if there is a market, there will be competition, and if there is competition, there will be pressure. If there is pressure, there will be good products to give back to consumers.On July 15, HiPhi Y, the third model of Gaohe brand, was officially launched.A total of 4 models of the new car have been launched, with a price range of 339,000 to 449,000 yuan.The new car will also take up the sales banner of the Gaohe brand, so as the brand's popular niche, how should it be chosen?

Review of new car highlights
Gaohe HiPhi Yhas a total of four models, three of which are single-motor rear-drive, and one is a dual-motor four-wheel drive version. It is worth noting that the prices of the three single-motor models are all within 400,000 yuan.In addition, battery packs with 76.6kWh and 115kWh capacities are also provided according to different models. The CLTC working conditions are respectively 560km (standard range with single motor), 810km (long range with single motor) and 765km (with dual motors).It is worth mentioning that the long battery life and the battery life of the dual motor version have obvious advantages in the same class of models.
In terms of appearance, Gaohe HiPhi Y still has a strong family design gene, such as the mech design style, closed front air intake grille, and recognizable ISD intelligent interactive lights.However, compared with the exaggerated HiPhi Z andHiPhi X, the lines of HiPhi Y are more restrained, which can meet the aesthetics of more consumers, which is more in line with its home positioning.In addition, the new car also offers 6 body colors to choose from, including Breeze Purple, Xingchi Silver, Sunshine Red, Jade Lime, Wilderness Green, and Ice Crystal White. With a liquid metal texture paint surface, the whole car looks very textured.
The ISD intelligent interactive light is also standard in HiPhi Y. With the light effect when unlocking the vehicle, both the sense of technology and the sense of ceremony are in place.
The side profile of the body is thick and full, and the window part incorporates the elements ofHiPhi Z, with tough lines, combined with the blackened A/B/C pillars and the slightly downward slip-back design, creating a very dynamic floating roof effect.
In terms of size, the length, width and height of HiPhi Y are 4938*1958*1658mm, and the wheelbase is 2950mm. The body size has obvious advantages among competing models.
For details, even on the entry-level HiPhi Y, it is equipped with a wing door with a full score of wind value.In detail, the HiPhi Y's door is opened and closed through the buttons on the front door and the C-pillar or the Bluetooth key, and it is in the form of an electric button, and there is no traditional mechanical handle.
The rear of the car adopts the minimalist design commonly used in pure electric SUVs, and is outlined with a few tough lines to make the rear of the car more layered.At the same time, the high-speed airflow is used to clean the rear windshield from dust and rain.In addition, the whole car also adopts a large number of aerodynamic designs, which can effectively reduce wind resistance and improve the actual endurance.
In terms of interior, HiPhi Y adopts the mainstream minimalist design idea. The interior is composed of three LCD screens. From left to right, the size is 12.3-inch LCD instrument, 17-inch OLED interactive screen placed vertically, and 15-inch co-pilot entertainment screen.
It is worth mentioning that the HiPhi Y central control panel is equipped with a HiPhi stepless positioning robot arm that can be pitched at 25°. The central control panel can be adjusted automatically according to the position of the driver's seat, or through the steering wheel Touchpad, voice control, or manual adjustment to avoid glare from the screen.
In terms of configuration, it is worth mentioning that the CDC continuously variable damping shock absorbers, full-speed active rear-wheel steering and wing doors on Gaohe HiPih Y are all standard configurations.
In terms of power, the new car provides two types of single-motor rear drive and dual-motor four-wheel drive. The maximum power of a single motor is 247kW, and the maximum torque is 410 Nm.The dual-motor four-wheel drive version has a maximum power of 371kW and a maximum torque of 620 Nm, and it takes only 4.7s to break through a hundred.
Interpretation of vehicle configuration
It can be seen from the configuration of the four models that Gaohe HiPhi Y focuses on the single-motor version.Let's first look at the Pioneer Edition priced at 339,000 yuan.The new car comes standard with 20-inch wheels, front side airbags, front and rear head air curtains, 254-color ambient light, electric trunk, active air intake grille, turn assist lights, front soundproof glass, facial recognition, steering wheel position memory/heating, HUD head-up display, streaming media rearview mirror, 16-speaker British treasure audio system, front wireless charging for mobile phones, front seat ventilation/heating/massage, front seat position memory, rear seat heating, negative ion air purifier and other configurations.And it is also equipped with a complete L2 driving assistance system.
In addition, highlights such as the co-pilot entertainment screen, wing doors, ISD intelligent interactive lights, electric opening and closing wing doors, CDC variable damping shock absorbers, full-speed active rear-wheel steering, and HiPhi Port high-combination docking stations and other model configurations have also been standard configurations.The 560km CLTC battery life is also comparable to the entry-level version of competing products.In addition to the official rights and interests, Dading will also give away a configuration package worth 16,000 (lidar and immersive speaker set) before August 31, which is really cost-effective.
The second is the 560km elite version priced at 369,000 yuan. Compared with the Pioneer version, the wheel size is upgraded to 21 inches, and it is also equipped with lidar, immersive audio kit, rear small table, car refrigerator and car fragrance system.In addition, the seat material has also been upgraded from imitation leather to Nappa leather.
The biggest highlight of the 810km long-endurance version, priced at 399,000 yuan, is that it is equipped with a 115kWh ternary lithium battery pack, and the CLTC working condition can be increased to 810km.
The 765km flagship version is the top version of the whole series, priced at 449,000 yuan. It not only has a 4.7s acceleration from 100 kilometers to 100 kilometers, but also has an endurance of 765km under CLTC conditions. Among the four-wheel drive versions of competing models, it also has an endurance advantage of more than 100km.While having strong power, battery life is also guaranteed.
Model configuration recommendation
On the whole, the most recommended model is the entry-level 560km Pioneer Edition. The price of 339,000 yuan is very sincere, and it really achieves entry-level high-end configuration, and it can upgrade rights during the limited time of listing. If you are in a hurry to buy a car, just choose this configuration.
If you often have intercity commuting needs, then I believe that the 810km long battery life version can definitely satisfy you.Of course, if you have a sufficient budget, you can choose the top-equipped 765km flagship version in one step, with an acceleration of 4.7s and a battery life of 765km, which can also achieve a balance between performance and practicality.
