With the popularity of the Huawei Mate 60 series' sudden launch some time ago, the new M7 jointly created by Huawei and SERES has also indirectly received a lot of attention, especially Huawei announced that the M7's map-free intelligent driving function will be open to the whole country at the end of the year.

Therefore, the number of large orders for Wenjie M7 has been increasing recently. The large orders alone have exceeded the best historical data. This is a success for a new brand with an average price of more than 250,000 yuan.

So in this shopping guide, we will analyze with you the new energy SUV for families. New World Is the M7 really the right choice?

Design

From the appearance point of view, the new M7 is positioned as a minor facelift, so it does not look much different from the old model. It still has a grille that gives off a fuel car feel. For consumers who prefer the simple and stylish design of the Ideal L7, the new M7 will still look a bit old-fashioned.

However, if you look at the roof from the front, you will see a bulge on the top of the new M7. This is the laser radar component equipped with the new M7. In order to avoid the laser radar being scratched by the fender or damaged by the headlight due to rear-end collision, New World The M7 chooses to place it on the roof, but it has to be said that this seems to reduce the integrity of the front of the car.

In addition, the side design of the new M7 still retains the majestic waistline, which looks very domineering. This is also in line with the large body of this car. The simple and powerful AITO at the rear is highly recognizable at night.

To be honest, the body design of the new M7 is not very good-looking among the new forces' models, but such a design is more in line with the aesthetic taste of traditional fuel car owners, that is, consumers who are not concerned about new energy vehicles. After all, Huawei's brand potential is enough to attract these consumers to learn about the new M7. From this point of view, the design of the new M7 is very successful.

Power and handling

The new M7 is divided into a six-seater version and a five-seater version. There are five sub-versions in the two seat layout versions. However, from the performance perspective, there are only rear-wheel drive version and four-wheel drive version, and only the electric motor power configurations of these two are different.

The rear-wheel drive version uses a rear single motor with a maximum power of 200kW, a maximum torque of 360N·m, a maximum horsepower of 272Ps, and a 0-100 acceleration time of 7.8 seconds. The four-wheel drive version uses a front and rear dual motor configuration with a maximum power of 330kW, a maximum torque of 660N·m, a maximum horsepower of 449Ps, and a 0-100 acceleration time of 4.8 seconds.

Judging from the ratio of performance to price alone, the rear-wheel drive version of the new M7 is not outstanding in its price range. Its time of 7.8 seconds is even slower than that of some fuel SUVs. Its top speed of 190km/h also shows that its motor output design is not high-power oriented.

The performance of the four-wheel drive version will be even better, and it is more in line with the upper-middle price level than the rear-wheel drive version. Therefore, if you choose the new M7 with the idea of ​​buying a high-performance SUV, you can only consider the four-wheel drive version. The rear-wheel drive version is a model that is more in line with the positioning of an ordinary family car.

In terms of handling, since the entire new M7 series is equipped with HUAWEI DATS 2.0, it can automatically adjust the torque output of the electric motor according to road conditions. Therefore, when encountering some extremely bumpy roads, the new M7 can also bring a more comfortable riding experience to the driver and passengers. This has also been confirmed by many evaluation media.

This shows that the new M7 has done a very good job in driving comfort, the most important consideration for family cars.

Secondly, the new M7 is also equipped with a front and rear dual FSD variable damping suspension system, which can automatically adjust the suspension damping according to road conditions. The benefit of this is that in high-frequency commuting scenarios in the city, the new M7 can use a softer suspension in exchange for good comfort, and on the highway, it can use a harder suspension to ensure the stability of the body at high speeds, and the handling performance is better.

Therefore, with the support of dual technologies, the new M7 has relatively good performance in terms of handling and comfort. Of course, as a family-oriented SUV, the tuning of the new M7 will be closer to comfort and is more suitable for family users.

Intelligent Driving

Intelligent driving, the new M7 is one of the smart driving ceilings in China. The reason is simple, because it uses Huawei's complete set of autonomous driving solutions. If you are considering whether to buy the smart driving MAX version of the new M7, you can read this chapter in detail.

The Xinwenjie M7's Intelligent Driving MAX is equipped with the HUAWEI ADS 2.0 advanced intelligent driving system and up to 27 sensing hardware. The biggest advantage of this intelligent driving system compared to other intelligent driving solutions on the market is that it is developed based on a map-free mode, that is, it no longer relies on high-precision maps with limited coverage area, but relies entirely on the vehicle's own intelligent driving sensing hardware to complete driving operations.

Whether on the highway or in the city, from passing through traffic lights to automatic parking across floors, the new M7 can handle it with ease. Moreover, as the vehicle hardware learns more deeply about road conditions, its performance in intelligent driving will become more and more outstanding.

Therefore, if you are interested in intelligent driving, or often have the need to drive long distances, then choosing the high-end intelligent driving version of the Xinwenjie M7 is very cost-effective. It does not rely on high-precision maps and pure vehicle perception logic, which makes the intelligent driving of the Xinwenjie M7 have faster and wider intelligent driving coverage than other car companies' intelligent driving solutions.

Interior Configuration

In terms of interior, the new M7 adopts the concept of technological luxury to design the cockpit as always. Therefore, you can see that almost everywhere in the cockpit of the new M7 is wrapped in leather material. Therefore, the texture of the cockpit is excellent and the touch is also very high-end, which can meet the needs of consumers who are more picky about the quality of the cockpit.

The design elements of the center console are simple and elegant, with a distinct sense of layering, so it does not look rustic or outdated, which is in stark contrast to the slightly dated front face.

Of course, the most noteworthy thing about the Xinwenjie M7 is still the Hongmeng smart cockpit it is equipped with. Thanks to the experience accumulated by Huawei's terminal team in mobile phone system interaction design, the car-machine interaction experience of the Xinwenjie M7 can still be said to be the ceiling level in the industry.

It not only supports recording the owner's usage habits, but after the owner enters the cockpit, all configurations are automatically adjusted according to the owner's habits. You can also freely set travel habits, allowing the new M7 to complete the corresponding car preparation settings before you get in the car every time. Maybe in the future, the new M7 will be able to use its intelligent driving function to automatically drive the car in front of the owner.

In addition, the new M7 also supports the flow of content from previous generations of mobile phones. Mobile apps can be used on the central control screen, and when arriving at the destination, navigation information that requires walking will be sent to the owner's mobile phone and watch. The integrated experience of using Huawei products is excellent.

Purchase suggestions

The five versions of the new M7 are six-seat Plus rear-wheel drive version, five-seat Plus rear-wheel drive version, six-seat Max smart driving version, five-seat Plus four-wheel drive version and five-seat Max smart driving version.

For a common family of three, the five-seater version is the right choice. Although the six-seater version has zero-gravity seats, the five-seater version has a larger interior space, larger storage space, and is more practical.

In terms of the smart driving version, if you have a high acceptance of smart driving, then choosing the MAX smart driving version will give you the best experience, because Huawei's map-free solution can basically cover most usage scenarios. If you are a consumer switching from a gasoline car and have doubts about the safety of smart driving, you can choose the Plus version.

The choice between the rear-wheel drive version and the four-wheel drive version is entirely determined by the pursuit of power. Unless you choose the Max Intelligent Driving version, it depends on whether you have higher or lower performance requirements. Generally speaking, if you don't have such extreme performance requirements for a home SUV, then choosing the rear-wheel drive version is completely sufficient.
