As the first batch of new power players, Xiaopeng compared with the ideal and Weilai at the same time, and even the latecomer zero run, Nezha and other players are much lower profile. However, in the recent past, Xiaopeng, who has always been low-key, has changed his temperament, and various publicity and exposure have made many viewers look sideways. What is the reason? Hey, to promote the MONA M03, the breadwinner.
This week, the high-profile MONA M03 completed the official market, the car launched a total of three configurations, the price range of 11.98~ 155,800 yuan. It has to be said that this time Xiaopeng’s body was really low enough, and the pressure was directly given to the music road next door. According to the plan, the normal version of MONA M03 will be delivered in September, and the top MAX version will be delivered after the Spring Festival next year.
I still remember that during the Shanghai Auto Show a few months ago, He Xiaopeng, the head of Xiaopeng, once said: “In the second half of this year, (MONA M03) is expected to have better sales than Lei Zong Mi SU7.” He Xiaopong’s expectations for the car can be seen, so will the MONA M03 sell better than the Xiaomi SU7? After understanding the specific strength of the car, you will have the answer in your mind.
Appearance design
As early as the debut of the MONA M03, there were two voices about the design of this car. Personally, I believe that the design of this car belongs to that type of characteristics, without homogenization, which is worthy of affirmation. Specifically, the car is set up in the front face of the T-shaped light group, its internal matching 300 LED light beads, can scatter light to more angles, the longest irradiation distance of up to 150 meters. The middle part of the front adopts a closed design, and the full integrated active air intake grille is set below. This area can be intelligently adjusted to open and close according to the speed, and the wind resistance coefficient can be effectively reduced when closed.
The MONA M03 is a compact car with a specific length, width and height of 4780×1896×1445 mm and a wheelbase of 2815mm. The key data is much ahead of the main competitor, the Light Qin PLUS EV, but it does not have much advantage in height due to the influence of the sliding back style.
The MONA M03 has a smooth line that extends to the rear and meets the small spoiler. The lower taillight group is consistent with the headlights, and the design is T-shaped, forming a good front and back echo. In addition, the car also uses a hatchback design, the visual feel is quite smooth, but the whole rear is relatively short, storage space is general.
Interior design
Like previous Xpeng products, the MONA M03 interior design is as simple as ever, and the classic T-shape layout of the center console provides drivers with a wide field of view. Looking around the car, we can only see a screen, that is, the center control large screen, its size is 15.6 inches, the internal match Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip, running memory is 16GB. And the car is also equipped with Xiaopeng full-stack self-developed vehicle system, which can support 3D perception rendering map, 360-degree panoramic image and other functions.
Intelligent driving is the core selling point of Xiaopeng, and the MONA M03’s performance in this regard naturally does not need us to worry too much. The MONA M03 is the only model in its class with 20+ intelligent sensing hardware as standard. These include two millimeter-wave radars. On this basis, the MONA M03 MAX is equipped with a new high-class intelligent driving solution, which can be used in any city, road section or road condition.
The interior seats of the car are uniformly wrapped in imitation leather fabric, and the functions are standard with electric adjustment of the main and passenger seats, electric seat memory of the driver’s seat, etc. The medium and high versions also provide heating/ventilation of the front seats. The car seat has an ergonomic design, the posture is more comfortable when riding, and the internal filling is soft enough to have a certain sense of sinking.
The rear seat of the MONA M03 is relatively spacious, the seat cushion is at a moderate height from the floor, the leg posture is relaxed enough, and the rear seat is reclined, and the maximum volume of the trunk can be expanded to 1603 liters.
Dynamic system
The MONA M03 is equipped with a front single motor, but it is divided into high and low power versions, its maximum output power is 140 kW and 160 kW, the peak torque is 225 nm and 250 nm, and the fastest 100 km acceleration is 7.4 seconds. At the same time, this model matches the lithium iron phosphate blade battery provided by Ferdi, the battery pack capacity is 51.8 KWH and 62.2 KWH, respectively, the corresponding CLTC range is 515 km and 620 km. The vehicle supports fast charging, which takes only 0.43 hours to charge from 30% to 80%.
