Cullinan is Rolls-Royce’s top SUV, priced at more than 6 million. The car is known as the most expensive SUV in the world. China’s Hongqi E-HS9 has been nicknamed the “Chinese Cullinan”. Although the price difference between the two cars is huge. However, because Hongqi is a Chinese brand, it has always attracted much attention from the Chinese. Today I will share my actual use experience of Hongqi E-HS9.
Overall appearance
In terms of appearance, Hongqi E-HS9 is overall elegant and beautiful. The front face adopts Hongqi’s classic straight waterfall grille design, with a classic red logo of Hongqi vertically coming down from the top. The overall design language is streamlined, and the body lines are smooth and powerful, giving people a strong visual impact. It is also equipped with a series of smart configurations such as LED headlights, electric sunroof, and electric tailgate, highlighting its sense of luxury and technology.
Interior
In terms of interior, the interior of FAW Hongqi E-HS9 creates a luxurious and comfortable driving experience and is equipped with rich comfort and technological configurations. The 12.3-inch central control LCD screen in the center console displays rich content and complete functional configurations, providing the driver with and provide passengers with a more convenient experience. 22 electric seat adjustments, sunroof, ambient lighting, etc. allow both drivers and passengers to enjoy a distinguished car experience. The seat is made of high-quality materials and supports multiple electric adjustments, providing excellent sitting comfort.
Dynamic performance
The driving experience of Hongqi E-HS9 exceeded my expectations. The length, width and height of the Hongqi E-HS9 are 5209x2010x1731mm, and the wheelbase is 3110mm. As a car with a length of more than five meters and a weight of more than three tons, I originally thought it would drive like a big ship. But in fact, this car is much more stable than I imagined. When starting and braking, it is not as easy to raise the head and nod as the models of the same level. Of course, it’s possible that it’s thanks to its air suspension. When driving through bumpy roads, the restraint in the car is relatively good. Hongqi E-HS9 has six driving modes. When traveling on bad roads, you can adjust it to off-road mode. At this time, the vehicle height will be raised to the highest level to improve passability.
In terms of power, Hongqi E-HS9 is equipped with a pure electric motor with a maximum horsepower of 435 horsepower. The transmission is matched with an electric vehicle single-speed gearbox and the battery power is 120kWh, which comes from CATL. The motor power is 320kW, fast charging is 1.1 hours, the power consumption per 100 kilometers is 18kWh, the battery life is 690km, and the speed increase is relatively linear.
Summarize
Of course, this car also has some details that are not handled properly. For example, the noise of opening and closing the windows is relatively loud, and it feels like a car worth about 100,000 yuan. It is not delicate. Then, the place where the red wine glass is placed in the middle of the rear seat makes a lot of noise when it is opened, and there is almost no damping feeling. I think it is a bit inappropriate. It would be better if it could be improved.
However, the flaws are not hidden. Overall, this car combines high performance, high technology and high comfort. From the appearance to the interior to the power side, it shows the luxury and high-end of the Hongqi brand. It is a high-end car that cannot be missed car.
