"North South confrontation" of micro electric vehicles: which is stronger between BYD E1 and BAIC EC3?

Posted 2022-08-31 00:00:00 +0000 UTC

In the micro electric vehicle, BAIC has a high brand awareness, but the embarrassing thing is that after going out of the Sixth Ring Road, it will not be popular. The hot sales of the brand's electric vehicles used to be inseparable from "local protection", and there is no advantage only in terms of product quality and technology. Next, take BYD E1 as a reference to analyze the cost performance of EC3 with the "three big parts" of electric vehicles. 1: The power batteries of electric and quality assurance standard 3 equipment are mainly Funeng batteries, which are not high-level among well-known battery suppliers, and there is a large technical gap between the first camp of "catl cluster" and Ningde camp. The system energy density of the first-line power battery has exceeded 160wh / kg, while the level of Funeng is still around 150. Therefore, when the battery capacity of EC3 is 30.66kwh, its NEDC test range is only 301 km. Moreover, the battery warranty period is only 8 years or 150000 km. The high cost of later replacement may be a concern. The power battery of BYD E1 is a product independently developed by BYD, which is a nickel cobalt lithium manganate battery; the system energy density of this battery pack exceeds the standard of 160wh / kg, and the technical level seems to be slightly higher. Moreover, with the advantage of energy density, it still has 32.2kwh capacity, and the 305 km test range of NEDC will be closer to the real endurance capacity. The core of new energy vehicles provides a lifetime warranty. The core refers to the energy storage battery in the shell after being grouped. In the later stage, no matter how old the vehicle is, only SOC less than 70% can replace the core worth tens of thousands of Yuan free of charge. 2: Compared with the basic parameters, the body size of BAIC EC3 is 3684 * 1630 * 1518, and the wheelbase is 2360mm. The driving space of five doors and four seats is qualified. Although the rear leg space is not enough, it is at least better than E1. However, the design of EC3 is a bit too "casual". I don't feel that the handling of the whole car's outline and details should be flexible, more or less a bit of raw and hard style. Although the price of the car is not high, it shouldn't have such a full sense of cheapness. The body size of BYD E1 is 3465 * 1618 * 1500, the wheelbase is 2340mm, the size is equal to the standard A00 level, but the seat layout adopts the conventional five door five seat, the space experience is not as good as EC3, but the practical value is not low. The design of this car completely copied the fuel version of BYD F0, except that China Grid adopted the quasi closed electric vehicle design; although the design sense of E1 and F0 does not talk about delicacy, they will at least be more lovely than EC3. In terms of configuration, we won't go into details. The two cars are basically in the same standard. Let's focus on the price difference. BAIC's EC3 guidance price is 7.38-7.98 million, and the price of BYD E1 guidance price is 5.99-7.99 million, which is obviously more advantageous for E1. In addition to the leading technology of power battery and the more scientific platform building of BYD E platform, the high integration of electric motor control and battery brings effective lightweight, and the stability is also the first in the industry. Therefore, the comparison between the two vehicles is still better than that of Yadi E1. BAIC pays more attention to the b-end travel market in the field of new energy, so whether it is worth considering.
