When it comes to Blue Electric Vehicles, everyone may feel unfamiliar. In fact, it is an independent brand under its umbrella, mainly producing new energy models. Backed by large groups, it can naturally get a lot of sharing technology, which is also the source of confidence for Blue Electric Vehicles. And through gradual coverage of the 34-line market, Blue Electric Vehicles currently sells about 2,000 units per month. In order to further enhance its competitiveness, the new Blue Electric E5 came into being. The new car is named "," and the manufacturer positions it as a 100,000-class household medium-sized SUV, which is expected to be released before and after the Guangzhou Auto Show.
The body size of the Blue Electric E5 PLUS is 4760x1865x1710mm (length, width and height), with a wheelbase of 2785mm, consistent with the current Blue Electric E5, positioned as a mid-sized SUV, and available in 5-seat/7-seat models.
The obvious change in the appearance of the vehicle comes from the front of the car, which adopts the popular minimalist design concept. Compared with the old blue electric E5, the new car has cancelled the air intake grille and used a closed-style facial shape. At the same time, the position of the car logo is also adjusted upward. Coupled with the embellishment of the through-type light group, the characteristics of its new energy models are more obvious.
The rear shape of the car is basically the same as that of the current blue electric E5, without any obvious adjustment. The main change comes from the different rear logo to show the different identity of the vehicle.
The side lines of the new car maintain the smoothness and low profile of this level of model. The waist line runs through the headlights to the taillights, and the two chrome-plated decorations under the windows and doors enhance the refinement of the body, which is neither unconventional nor unpleasant.
Wheel hubs offer a variety of options according to different models, and the 19-inch Xinghui wheel hub on the main model is also a key upgrade in appearance.
The interior of the blue electric E5 PULS is the most changed part. The new car cancels the dual-screen instrument used on the old E5, and instead adopts a independently arranged LCD instrument panel and a large floating central control screen with a size of 15.6 inches. The steering wheel shape has also changed from the previous dual-format to a more sporty three-frame shape. The bottom of the T-table has also undergone significant changes. Due to the cancellation of the traditional gear shift method and the change to the huai block layout, the area between the front and rear drivers has been completely redesigned, not only increasing the storage space, but also adding a wireless charging panel for mobile phones.
The front row is equipped with 66W wired and 50W wireless dual fast charging, and the central storage box also has air conditioning trend, which can temporarily refrigerate some beverages.
The new car center console uses a large area of soft material package, which is much better than the old model in terms of both visual and feel. In addition, the interior color matching, in addition to the walnut brown model, also provides an obsidian black color scheme to choose from.
The new 15.6-inch FHD floating central control screen is a major improvement on the Blue Power E5 PLUS. At the same time, the cockpit is equipped with HUAWEI HiCar4.0, which has dual sound zones, supports continuous commands, and can be seen and said. Especially for Huawei mobile phones, it can achieve seamless flow, and navigation can be initiated directly after a shake.
The fluidity and sensitivity of the car and machine are good, the 1920×1080 screen definition is good in visual experience, and the UI details are also designed with various "small animations". The overall interface design is very attentive. With the empowerment of Cyrus, the car-machine interaction of the Blue Electric E5 PLUS is more silky.
In terms of spatial layout, the effective space length of the Blue Electric E5 PLUS has reached 3162mm, with a 66.4% rate of home acquisition. According to the information provided by the manufacturer, the front leg space is 917mm, the second row leg space is 815mm, and the third row leg space is also 715mm.
The soft and comfortable seat is an impressive piece of equipment on the blue electric E5 PLUS. The manufacturer named it "the soufflé seat". The front seat has 6-way electric adjustment, and at the same time has ventilation and heating functions. Especially the ventilation function of the equipment is more advanced and practical.
In addition to providing good legroom, the second-row seats support front and rear manual adjustment, and the seat backrest can also support 125 ° angle adjustment, which is convenient for long-term riding to reduce fatigue.
The overall space of the third row belongs to the mainstream level for this size model, but it is indeed more suitable for short-distance temporary rides. At the same time, in terms of details, the length of the second row cushion of the 7-seat model is also slightly shorter than that of the 5-seat model. However, the 7-seat model provides users with a more choice, each taking what they need.
In addition, by reclining the second and third rows of seats, the maximum capacity of the Blue Electric E5 PLUS can be extended to 1694 liters, and only the third row of seats can be reclined to obtain a common trunk space with a depth of 1188mm and a volume of 845L. Whether it is for daily commuting or long-distance travel, it can provide sufficient loading capacity.
With all three rows of seats open, the trunk space is 221L, which is suitable for storing some luggage.
According to previous relevant information, the battery pack of the Blue Electric E5 PLUS is a lithium iron carbonate battery provided by Guoxuan Hi-Tech, and the long-range version of the model has a pure electric range of 165 kilometers.
Relying on the DE-i super electric hybrid system of Cyrus, the blue electric E5 PLUS is equipped with a 1.5L engine + DHT330 motor, with a maximum power of 160Kw and a maximum torque of 330N.m. The data shows that the acceleration time of 0-100km/h is 7.8s. This is a mature power system. We will experience the specific dynamic performance in the subsequent dynamic test drive.
Summarize:
As a pragmatic person who pursues practicality, Blue Electric E5 PLUS has a clear and clear positioning. The main competitors in the market in the future include Tiggo, Tiggo, etc. The not-so-high vehicle price plus the not-so-small interior space, as well as the flexible seat layout, the manufacturer hopes that whether it is a middle-aged big family or a young small family, they can have the ability to love their family and themselves. Value the unity of price and value, and what suits them is the best.
