On October 13, the Lantu Zhiyin was officially launched. The new car launched a total of 4 models, priced at 196,900-236,900 yuan, of which the long-range Zhixiang version has a limited discount price of 179,900 yuan and is limited to 3,000 units. Lantu Zhiyin is the fourth car under Lantu. The new car is built on the ESSA intelligent electric architecture and the full-domain 800V silicon carbide platform, and the maximum range of CLTC conditions is 901 kilometers. The whole series is equipped with free cockpit, multiple high-level intelligent assisted driving, CDC adjustable damping suspension and other configurations as standard, redefining the standard of pure electric SUV within 200,000 yuan with technological strength, and delivering the first new car on site. The next day, the official announcement of Zhiyin orders reached 8,126 units.

On September 26, Avita 07 was officially launched, with a total of 6 models. The price range of the extended-range version is 219,900-279,900 yuan, and the price range of the pure electric version is 229,900-289,900 yuan. As the third strategic model of the Avita brand, Avita 07 is also the first model under the brand to adopt a pure electric extended-range dual-power system. It is positioned as a medium-sized SUV and is equipped with Huawei Qiankun Intelligent Driving ADS 3.0 and Hongmeng 4.0 car systems. On October 13, Avita Automobile announced that Avita 07 had received 25,386 large orders in 17 days after its launch, with a maximum of 3,508 orders locked in a single day.

As a new power brand incubated by Dongfeng Motor, Lantu's three-electric system technology is not inferior to that of a number of domestic OEMs, especially Lantu Zhiyin's first launch of Lanhai Power 800V electric drive assembly, the high energy efficiency percentage of the electric drive assembly reached 92.9%, claiming to be "the world's number one in energy efficiency". Avita is a new power brand under Changan, and Avita 07 is Avita's first appearance in the extended-range field. However, Lantu Zhiyin's listed models are all pure electric models, so this article compares the Lantu Zhiyin long-range supercharged version and the Avita 07 rear-wheel drive pro version.

Avita 07 has more space, more power and more expensive than Lantu Zhiyin

As can be seen from the above picture, the length, width and wheelbase of Lantu Zhiyin are not as good as Avita 07. The height of Lantu Zhiyin is slightly higher than Avita 07. Avita 07 is better than Lantu Zhiyin in terms of riding space and loading space.

In terms of power, the maximum power of the motor of Avita 07 is higher than that of Lantu Zhiyin, but the maximum speed of Avita 07 is not as high as that of Zhiyin. At the same time, in terms of power consumption, Lantu Zhiyin consumes 13.8 kWh per 100 km, while Avita 07 consumes 14.5 kWh per 100 km. The weight of Avita is 170 kg more than that of Lantu. In terms of CLT battery life, the two cars have the same battery life of 650 km. The luggage compartment volume of Avita is larger than that of Lantu.

In terms of price, the Avita 07 is 27,000 yuan more expensive than the Lantu Zhiyin, but the former has a larger space and stronger power, but the difference is not that big. Moreover, both are mid-size SUVs, and the Avita has a higher premium because of the support of Huawei Intelligent Driving. If you don't have high requirements for space and intelligent driving, you can choose the Lantu Zhiyin, at least it is affordable.

Avita 07 uses double wishbone front suspension, the chassis is more intelligent, Lantu Zhiyin can be faster with battery armor

Comparing the battery and chassis, the Avita 07 is equipped with a CATL 82.16-degree ternary lithium battery pack with a charging rate of 4.5C. The Lantu Zhiyin also uses a CATL 79-degree lithium iron phosphate battery with a charging rate of up to 5C. In terms of energy replenishment efficiency, the Lantu Zhiyin is better than the Avita 07. The Avita 07's fast charging is from 30% to 80%, while the Lantu is from 10% to 80%, and the two take the same time.

In terms of chassis, the difference between the two models lies in the front suspension type, Lantu Zhiyin is MacPherson type, Avita is double wishbone type, and the rear suspension type is the same, both are multi-link independent type. The front suspension of Lantu Zhiyin does not seem to be as "advanced" as Avita 07, and Avita 07 is better than Lantu Zhiyin in terms of driving comfort and handling.

In particular, the Avita 07 is equipped with the Taihang intelligent control chassis system. The suspension system uses a front double wishbone and a rear multi-link independent suspension, both of which are made of silicon-magnesium-aluminum alloy with higher strength but lighter weight. The Avita 07 also has a CST 2.0 full-scene comfort braking system, which can intelligently adjust the braking force, effectively suppress the pitch degree during braking, and improve the riding comfort. The bottom of the Lantu Zhiyin battery pack uses a detachable integrated 1500Mpa ultra-high strength armor, which can withstand twice the kinetic energy impact of conventional pistol bullets, thereby effectively protecting the battery pack from external impact damage.

Avita 07 smart cabin leads the pack, but its smart driving capabilities are the same

In terms of smart cabin, Lantu Zhiyin is equipped with a relatively smaller central control screen and LCD instrument than Avita 07. The LCD instrument of Avita 07 is 35.4 inches, while that of Lantu Zhiyin is only 6 inches, but it is equipped with a 29-inch HUD system. As for the panoramic sunroof, the panoramic sunroof of Avita cannot be opened, while that of Lantu Zhiyin can be opened.

In terms of intelligent driving, both models are equipped with L2 level as standard. In terms of hardware, both cars are equipped with 10 cameras, but Han is equipped with 5 millimeter-wave radars, while Avita 07 is only equipped with 3. The entry-level version of Avita 07 uses Huawei ADS SE's intelligent driving function, supports high-speed NOA function, but does not support urban NOA function. It is at the same level as the long-range version of Lantu Zhiyin. Avita 07 needs to add 20,000 yuan to get the laser radar version and urban intelligent driving ADS3.0.

In terms of comfort configuration, Avita 07 has more steering wheel heating and memory, second row seat heating, steering wheel heating and front road crossing brake than Lantu Zhiyin. In terms of materials, Lantu Zhiyin uses leather or suede while Avita 07 uses imitation leather. It also has more in-car air purifier, negative ion generator and fragrance, as well as variable suspension adjustment than Avita 07. In terms of audio, Avita 07 uses 16-speaker British Treasure audio, while Lantu Zhiyin uses 13 speakers without manufacturer name. Avita 07 will have a better audio and video experience than Lantu Zhiyin.

By comparison, we can see that the Avita 07 has stronger power, larger space, higher intelligence and safety configuration, and better driving experience. However, you need to add 27,000 yuan to enjoy these benefits. If you want to experience the full-blooded ADS3.0, you have to spend 249,900 yuan to buy the 650max version of the Avita 07, which is nearly 50,000 yuan more. If your budget is relatively limited, you have requirements for the charging speed, you are not interested in intelligent driving, and you have requirements for the air quality in the car, you might as well choose Lantu Zhiyin.
