Bitauto Original The new year is approaching, and it’s time to make a summary. Looking back at the automobile market in 2022, new energy sources are still hot, and new cars of all types are constantly emerging. There are everything from economical and practical cars worth about 100,000 yuan to luxury cars worth millions. However, there are so many new energy models launched in 2022 that I will not list them all here. Next, we select five of the more representative models to see if there is any you like.
● BYD Dolphin
Guide price: 116,800-136,800 yuan
In the fiercely competitive 100,000-class new energy vehicle market, BYD Dolphin has attracted the attention of many young consumers since its launch. Sales in December 2022 reached 26,048 vehicles, and exceeded 20,000 vehicles for six consecutive months. , with cumulative sales of more than 200,000 vehicles in 2022. Such results allow it to continue to dominate the small car field.
The success of Dolphin is inseparable from its excellent product strength. Of course, I think the most important factor is its price factor. It is more than 100,000 yuan, equivalent to the price of a Shanghai brand, and compared with some mini cars, it has no obvious shortcomings in terms of safety configuration. In addition, the 2700mm wheelbase advantage and the trunk volume of 345L-1310L ensure that it has space in a small car.
In addition, the exterior and interior have strong design skills. First of all, the structure of the hatchback itself can attract the attention of young people, and the colors are relatively bright.

● BYD Seal
Guide price: 212,800-289,800 yuan
Like dolphins, seals, which belong to the marine series, also have excellent market performance. Its launch is obviously aimed at the Tesla Model 3. Friends who have carefully compared the two cars will find that the Seal is more outstanding in terms of comfort and luxury.
In terms of design, Seal subverts the previous heavy feeling. Instead, it adopts the "marine aesthetics" design concept and uses simple and dynamic lines as the main theme to bring youCome for a good visual enjoyment. Especially the interior, you can feel the strong luxurious materials and technological atmosphere at a glance.
Of course, this is also due to the technical support behind BYD, such as e-platform 3.0, blade battery, DM-i super hybrid and a series of technologies that are highly praised both inside and outside the industry. At the same time, it also provides rear-wheel drive/four-wheel drive power options. It is equipped with a front double wishbone + rear five-link suspension.

Guide price: 499,000-588,000 yuan

"There is no opponent within 5 million." I believe everyone has heard this sentence for a long time, and they quickly thought of Ideal L9. For Li Auto, it is also ranked among the new forces. Judging from the insurance volume in December 2022, the sales volume of Lili L9 reached 10,608 units, ranking first in the sales volume of large SUVs in China.

In addition to the two 15.7-inch screens in the front row, the rear entertainment screen of Lideal L9 is also 15.7-inch. Lideal calls it "five-screen three-dimensional interaction".

● Lotus ELETRE
Guide price: 82.80-1.028 million yuan
For many supercars, they are still stuck in the era of fuel vehicles. Lotus, a sports car brand with 70 years of history, launched its first pure electric SUV in 2022 - Lotus ELETRE. As a tram, it differs from ordinary pure electric vehicles in that it is not only used for transportation, but also for the pursuit of ultimate aerodynamics.
For a million-dollar car, basically all the configurations you want are available. The vehicle is equipped with 12 cameras, 12 ultrasonic radars, 6 millimeter wave radars, and 4 lidars. In terms of shape, the headlights adopt a split design. The LED daytime running lights above are composed of many LED modules arranged. The design and texture are very good. The taillight uses a through-type LED light strip, which is very tense and can be said to be the finishing touch of the entire rear of the car.
The interior has a lot to look at, because there was no Lotus model before it to provide reference, and the fact is that it did not disappoint most people. The interior texture of ELETRE is relatively refined, and functional components such as instruments and passenger screens are well integrated with the design.
In terms of power, ELETRE adopts a dual-motor four-wheel drive. Among them, the ELETRE R+ motor has a maximum power of 675kW and a maximum torque of 985N·m.

In fact, million-dollar pure electric supercar models are still rare products in the market, mainly because the audience is too small. Another reason is that they require a certain brand cultural heritage. At the same time, for users who like supercars, pure electric supercars The economy brought by the electric model is not particularly important, but it adds a lot of playability.
