Since 2024, an unprecedented "price war" has swept the whole new energy market. However, in the high-end market, "stacking" is of course important, but the core competitiveness will eventually return to the price. At the beginning of May this year, Star Age ET was born with its more attractive price, and the starting price directly broke through the 200,000 mark, and the guide price was 189,800 to 319,800, completely refreshing the bottom line of the same class.
Can Star Era ET stand out at a low price? This has become the focus of the market. Although Star Age ET is cheap, what is its strength? Can we break the monopoly position of traditional luxury brands such as BBA? This test drive gives us an in-depth understanding of the real performance of ET in Xingyue.
As the first SUV of Xingjiyuan brand, Xingjiyuan ET has achieved the ultimate in comfort, aiming to become an extension of family life. This new car is positioned as a medium and large SUV, with a body length of nearly 5 meters and a wheelbase of 3 meters. It has an effective cabin space of 3.45 cubic meters and a canopy light transmission area of 1.57 square meters, and the whole interior space is spacious and bright.
As a flagship SUV, Xingjiyuan ET is even more eye-catching. Based on Chery’s top E0X native platform, Xingjiyuan ET has become the world’s first vehicle equipped with Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited’s "Shenxing Battery". It only takes 11 minutes to charge, and it can achieve a battery life of more than 400 kilometers, effectively improving the charging efficiency. Even in the cold north, Shenxing battery can be charged stably at MINUS 20℃, which completely solves the problems of slow charging and reduced battery life of new energy vehicles in winter.
It is worth noting that in order to meet different travel needs, Star Age ET has launched two versions: pure electricity and extended range. Among them, the pure electric version has a cruising range of 760 kilometers, while the extended range version has a comprehensive cruising range of more than 1,500 kilometers, which is equivalent to no need to charge halfway from Shanghai to Beijing.
Through the test drive, the driving experience of Star Age ET is impressive. In this test drive, I had an in-depth experience of the extended range version and the pure electric version. Because of my personal driving habits, I prefer the pure electric version, especially in terms of steering feel and accelerating response speed. No matter on mountain roads or highways, the control of Star Age ET is more flexible. The extended-range version is equipped with an internal combustion engine, which makes the performance adjustment more stable, provides higher comfort, and has a cruising range of more than 1,500 kilometers, which is very attractive to home users, especially the "daddy" group.
In the current "price war", Star Age ET gives the answer in its unique way. The performance of the new car in terms of configuration, technology and safety far exceeds the sense of value brought by its price. It not only provides a ride experience comparable to that of foreign traditional luxury brands, but also brings more than 1,500 kilometers of endurance, saving users the cost of each car. Star Era ET has undoubtedly become a powerful player to break the new energy market.
