In the field of pure electric vehicles, Tesla has been regarded as one of its competitors by many peers, mainly because of the excellent comprehensive strength of its models. Take its Model Y(picture | configuration | inquiry) as an example. It can be seen from the sales list of midsize SUVs in the past year that Model Y ranks first. Enough to prove that consumers love it. Among the self-owned brand camp, there are countless models that can compete with Model Y. Nio’s ES6(picture | configuration | inquiry) is one of them, which has attracted high attention in the market since its listing. The car is built on the NT2.0 platform, with a lightweight all-aluminum body and dual motor four-wheel drive system. With strong power performance and excellent energy consumption performance, how is the product power of these two? Xiaobian to NiO ES6 2024 75kWh (official guidance price of 338,000) and Model Y 2024 long life all-wheel drive version (official guidance price of 290,900) as an example, to see how to choose these two cars?
Appearance design: Nio ES6 abandonsthe intake grille design of traditional fuel vehicles and adopts a closed front face, which not only meets the characteristics of electric vehicles, but also gives the vehicle a more concise and future visual effect. The daytime running light design of the front part is inspired by “space rocket”, which is avant-garde and full of science and technology. The LED lighting group under the headlights adopts adaptive near and far light and geometric multi-beam technology to ensure safety and comfort during driving. Tesla’s iconic closed grille design has been further optimized and upgraded on the Model Y, showing a more concise and powerful front face, this design not only reduces wind resistance, but also gives the vehicle a unique degree of identification, both sides are equipped with intense LED lights, not only excellent lighting effect, but also integrated adaptive light technology. The beam Angle can be automatically adjusted according to road conditions and driving conditions to ensure driving safety.
Weilai ES6 body adopts a dynamic and smooth design language, the line extends from the front to the rear of the body, showing a sense of dynamism and fashion, the roof adopts a suspended design, and the suspended roof echoes the design surrounded by black at the bottom, which not only enhances the layered sense of the body, but also improves the overall texture of the vehicle. The body of the Model Y is smooth and dynamic, extending from the front fender to the rear of the car, creating a dynamic body outline. This design not only improves the aerodynamic performance of the vehicle, but also gives the vehicle an elegant and sporty attitude. Both cars feature a hidden door handle design, which not only reduces wind resistance, but also adds a technological and futuristic feel to the vehicle.
The rear of the ES6 uses a slim illumiBlade light tail light, high brake light and strong sculptural line three-dimensional combination of the tail, eye-catching and hierarchical, and the rear wiper is integrated in the spoiler, making the overall visual effect of the rear windshield more tidy. The tail shape of Model Y is full and atmospheric, echoing the front face. The taillights do not adopt the current popular through design, but use independent taillights on both sides, which have a certain degree of recognition after lighting. The bottom surrounding sides are equipped with red reflective strips, adding a certain degree of safety.
Interior Design: Weilai ES6 adopts the enveloping design layout, the interior design is mainly simple, but without losing the sense of science and technology, the center console adopts a 12.8-inch central touch screen, which provides the driver with rich information and multimedia functions, and the 10.2-inch full LCD dashboard provides rich information display. The car is equipped with Banyan Yan intelligent system. And equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 smart chip, operation fluency and response speed is still very fast. Model Y also adopts the enveloping design layout, and the interior design continues Tesla’s consistent minimalist style. The overall layout is clear and concise. The center console is equipped with a 15-inch touch screen, which integrates most of the control functions of the vehicle, including navigation, entertainment, vehicle Settings, etc. The display effect of the large screen is clear and delicate, and the touch response is sensitive. The car is equipped with Tesla on-board system software and is equipped with AMD Ryzen smart chip, providing a good operating experience for the driver.
Space performance: The body length, width and height of the ES6 are 4854x1995x1703mm, the wheelbase is 2915mm, and the space performance of the second row is very spacious. For adults with a height of 175CM, there is about 2 and a half hands of legroom to ensure the comfort of the ride. The body length, width and height of Model Y are 4750x1921x1624mm, the wheelbase is 2890mm, and the second row space for adults with a height of 175CM has about 2 rounds of leg room, which is slightly insufficient compared with the space performance of Weilai ES6.
Dynamic performance: Nio ES6 is equipped with front/rear dual motor power, equipped with a 75kWh lithium iron phosphate battery + ternary lithium battery, the total motor power is 360kW (490Ps), the total motor torque is 700N·m, the official 100km acceleration time is 4.5s, the power consumption of 100km is 17.6kWh/100km. CLTC operating conditions under the pure electric range of 500km, support high voltage 400V fast charging platform, the use of dual motor four-drive mode, front/rear are using multi-link independent suspension. Model Y is equipped with a front/rear dual motor power, equipped with a 78.4kWh ternary lithium battery, the total motor power of 331kW (450Ps), the total motor torque of 559N·m, the official 100km acceleration time 5s, 100km power consumption of 13.4kWh/100km. CLTC operating condition pure electric mileage 688km, support high voltage 400V fast charging platform, dual-motor four-wheel drive mode, the front suspension form of double fork arm independent suspension, the rear suspension form of multi-link independent suspension.
Small editor’s opinion: Through the above comparative analysis, WEilai ES6, as a member of its own brand of new energy models, has an excellent comprehensive strength. Its clear-cut appearance will attract the love of young consumers, while the interior with a large number of environmentally friendly materials will attract the attention of home users, and the technology configuration is very rich. Almost achieved the “entry is high” performance, 490 strong power and 100 km 4.5 seconds of acceleration ability, can provide a certain sense of driving fun. The exterior shape and interior design of Tesla Model Y in today’s terms, will be a little aesthetic fatigue, especially for some relatively publicized young consumers are not attractive, fortunately, the scientific and technological configuration level is relatively rich, high driving stability, in addition, the Tesla brand has a certain influence in the country. If it is more attention to the appearance of the level of consumers who have high requirements for the air quality in the carriage, Xiaobian suggests choosing NIO ES6, but if it is more attention to the brand influence, mainly practical, and friends who have certain requirements for the mileage, Tesla Model Y is also a model worth considering.
