As major OEMs gradually began to make efforts in the field of home use, the market segment has indeed changed from the blue ocean market to the red ocean market. More and more consumers are beginning to prefer home models rather than traditional cars or models when choosing family cars. It is not difficult to find from the word-of-mouth and scoring systems of netizens that Trumpchi’s new energy E8 can be described as a double harvest of word-of-mouth sales, and is gradually becoming the new favorite of the current home market.
TA said: Why do I recommend Trumpchi New Energy E8 more than Hybrid?
I may be one of the few, long-term mixed driving Trumpchi new energy E8 and hybrid Odyssey real car owners. A few years ago, I did a small business and needed one, but there were not many options at that time, only a few. After using it for a few years, I found that it was competent as a family car, and even performed better in some aspects. Coupled with the small improvement in business, I also had the idea of adding another household car, and finally chose the Trumpchi new energy E8.
Compared to the Hybrid Odyssey, I think the most significant advantage of the Trumpchi new energy E8 is the change brought about by the large-capacity battery, which can not only get the green card, but also has a pure electric endurance of 150 kilometers, which is not available in the Hybrid Odyssey.
Businesspeople, cost saving is a professional habit, right? 150 kilometers of pure electric battery life, according to the rhythm of my car, basically two or three days without burning oil, just drive as a pure electric car, and the commuting cost is very low.
When I came back from other places a few years ago and was stuck on the highway for a few hours, the electric drive air conditioner was not distressed at all. There was no exhaust, no vibration, and there was no need to worry that the idling air conditioner of the fuel vehicle might accumulate carbon, block the particle trap, or consume electricity to lose mileage. During those hours, the warm air consumption may be less than 10 degrees, and it will slowly fill up after running, which will have little impact on the battery life.
Furthermore, when running at high speed, the large-capacity battery of the Trumpchi New Energy E8 can provide greater output power, and the re-acceleration ability in parallel mode is very strong. It will not cause the embarrassment of the previous hybrid Odyssey high-speed dry roar without running, so that after buying this Trumpchi New Energy E8, I don’t want to use the hybrid Odyssey to run at high speed at all.
There is another function that suits my appetite, that is, the Trumpchi new energy E8 supports external power discharge. I usually like to go out for outings or camping in my spare time. Before, I had to bring an outdoor power supply, but now I don’t need it at all. It’s very convenient to cook a meal and make a coffee and connect the power directly from the car.
Speaking of the Odyssey car, although it has a good reputation, it is also a technical foundation ten years ago, so I still recommend the Trumpchi new energy E8.
TA said: More than 40 cents a kilometer, Trumpchi New Energy E8 is really fragrant
When I bought it, I was torn between the Trumpchi New Energy E8 and the Hybrid Odyssey. Later, I did a detailed comparison homework based on my actual car needs. Finally, there are two reasons for choosing the Trumpchi New Energy E8. First, the Trumpchi New Energy E8 can better meet household needs in terms of power, battery life, fuel consumption, etc., but the configuration level and active and passive safety are more cost-effective, especially in terms of safety. The Odyssey is indeed relatively old, and it does not have an advantage compared to the current new products.
After a few months of use, I feel that I did not choose the wrong one. At a speed of 60 kilometers per hour on urban roads, the Trumpchi New Energy E8 has excellent body quietness during pure electric battery life, and the use experience is almost indistinguishable from that of a pure electric car. In the direct-drive mode of high-speed operating conditions, the noise control in the car is also very ideal. After deeply stepping on the accelerator, there is little hesitation in switching to the parallel mode. The power is very abundant, and the overtaking can be completed smoothly with just one foot of the accelerator. The entire process of changing lanes and returning to lanes is very silky, without any drag.
Up to now, urban roads are basically pure electric driving, calculated at an average of one dollar per kilowatt hour, commuting is quite cost-effective, only two Meizhou one-way 240 kilometers of expressway, the total mileage back and forth is about 1000 kilometers, full of oil and full of electricity, the comprehensive fuel consumption is measured to be about 6.2 liters, and 92 gasoline can be added, which is equivalent to more than 40 cents a kilometer, which is really fragrant. 1000 kilometers consume a total of about 400 yuan in fuel, and the toll is even 600 yuan.
With a comprehensive battery life of 1200 kilometers, how did Trumpchi New Energy E8 achieve it?
In terms of power, the system of Trumpchi New Energy E8 is composed of an Atkinson cycle 2.0L naturally aspirated engine and a front motor. The maximum engine power is 103 kW, the peak torque is 180 Nm, and the maximum motor power is 134 kW and the peak torque is 300 Nm.
The transmission is matched with a 2-speed DHT hybrid special gearbox, and the battery pack is equipped with a 25.57kW · h magazine. The CLTC operating condition has a pure electric cruising range of up to 150 kilometers, a full oil and full power comprehensive cruising range of up to 1200 kilometers, and the WLTC comprehensive fuel consumption is as low as 1.13L.
From the data, it is not difficult to see that the exaggerated 1200-kilometer comprehensive cruising range of the Trumpchi new energy E8 is not at the expense of power performance. On the contrary, this parameter is very effective among models of the same level.
The reason why Trumpchi’s new energy E8 can achieve a balance between performance and energy consumption is due to the power-based working logic of this P1 + P3 plug-in system.
In simple terms, in the high-load stage of the engine at low speed, the better motor plays the leading role. When entering the cruising sweet zone where the fuel engine is directly driven, the 40-kilometer-per-hour speed enters first gear and the 75-kilometer-per-hour speed enters second gear, directly guiding the fuel engine into the high-efficiency range. Moreover, with the support of large-capacity batteries, the P3 motor’s auxiliary ability when connected in parallel is more direct, and even more violent than when the turbine intervenes.
To put it more simply, in the ideal state of both running and not eating grass, the Trumpchi New Energy E8 has basically reached the standard, so it has also been exchanged for a comprehensive battery life of 1200 kilometers.
In contrast, a hybrid Odyssey with similar capabilities is also a typical P1 + P3 system, but the difference is that the hybrid Odyssey has less than 2 degrees of battery capacity and relies heavily on the engine for power generation. Whether it is direct drive or power generation, the engine will generate energy as long as it runs, and the role it can play when connected in parallel is quite limited, especially when high-speed overtaking requires parallel reacceleration.
Therefore, although the Honda i-MMD hybrid system is also one of the best solutions for saving energy, it is also true that low-speed charging consumes energy and high-speed parallel connection is weak. When it comes to commuting and high-speed overtaking, the hybrid Odyssey has its inherent shortcomings compared to the plug-in Trumpchi new energy E8.
In the past, the market was seriously disrupted. The mid-to-high end focused more on ride comfort and luxury texture to enhance business attributes, while the low end mostly focused on tool attributes based on space and load-bearing advantages. For a long time, there was a relative shortage of real IKEA, because few models could maintain a luxurious driving texture while balancing fuel consumption performance. The Trumpchi new energy E8 with a plug-in hybrid architecture solved this contradiction very well and became the most worthwhile household model to buy at the moment.
It is worth mentioning that the current Trumpchi New Energy E8 Year of the Dragon Edition has been listed, and there are also Trumpchi New Year 10 billion red envelopes, which can be reduced by 5888 yuan for the New Year version and 1888 yuan for other versions. The preferential margin is also a plus for the current Trumpchi New Energy E8.
