On December 16, Weilai ES8, known as China Tesla, went public.
Wei Li’s founder, Li Bin, once said: “Building a car is a very burning issue. New start-ups want to build a car, and they need at least 20 billion yuan of funds to prepare.†But judging from the generous look of the Weilai car, the investment of 20 billion yuan can only be regarded as just beginning, and he is bound to be a vast project.
On December 16, the first NIODay was held at the Wukesong Stadium in Beijing. The unveiled Weilai ES8 was formally launched and opened for global booking. As the most expensive home-made electric vehicle in China, the ES8 standard version has a pre-subsidy price of 448,000 yuan. According to the Beijing subsidy standard, the subsidy price is 375,400 yuan.
ES8 equipped with front and rear dual motors, the maximum output power of 480 kilowatts (650 horsepower), the maximum torque of 840 Newton meters, a hundred kilometers to accelerate only 4.4 seconds, enter the 4 seconds SUV club, so that the weight of the car close to 2.5 tons of medium and large The SUV is flexible, easy to navigate in the urban forest and enjoy driving pleasure.
Continental Group and Weilai have all-round cooperation. Everyone in ES8 has Continental products everywhere: from air suspension to tire pressure monitoring, from brake hoses to interior trim materials...
1, brake hose
Continental continues to develop more efficient systems, providing the automotive industry with the latest hoses and pipes, and providing solutions for various types of flowing media. Lightweight construction of them can effectively reduce fuel consumption. And seamless linking ensures high efficiency.

None of these three features require the use of a cable to connect the phone to the car. The driver simply places the smartphone in the cockpit box and uses the on-board control system to use all the relevant functions of the smartphone while driving. At the same time, the phone can be wirelessly charged.
5, BHSG interior materials
Interiors of the ES8's production model: Benecke-Chang Shun SEV, Acella (Eco-Eco skin material), and application site products are used for the dashboard lower body, door panel armrests, seat backs, and foot mats. The thickness is 1.1 mm - 1.25 mm.
Acella, an economical decorative material with fabric backing, does not contain toxic plasticizers and heavy metal stabilizers and can be designed as a low-emission product.
In addition, Benecke-Changshun can provide customized solutions for all interior application designs. For example, this product can be flexibly adapted to the needs of customers by adjusting the different colors, textures and surface patterns according to the needs of the OEM.
6ã€Engine suspension system
ContiTech's powertrain suspension system designed for NIO perfectly solves the customer's vibration isolation requirements under various road conditions. At the same time, under the premise of ensuring safety, the lightweight design concept was applied to the extreme and the customer’s goal of weight loss was exceeded. The system adopts a four-point arrangement of precursors and a three-point arrangement of rear drives, providing comprehensive and detailed solutions for isolation of powertrains.
7, German horse brand tires
Suitable for high performance vehicles and luxury vehicles. Excellent grip and handling performance when cornering, ensuring safety and worry-free In the day-to-day weather conditions can achieve a shorter braking distance, reduce fuel consumption and increase mileage.
In addition, the window anti-clamp control unit and the electric tailgate control module provide users with ES8 with safer and more intelligent services.
8, smart battery sensor
Electric vehicles are the market trend of the automotive industry. More and more KL130 battery-powered remote controllers will directly lead to excessive quiescent current in the vehicle. If the parking time is too long, the 12V battery will eventually run out of power.
However, the electric vehicle is equipped with an Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS) that can detect the status of the battery and provide corresponding feedback. The engine battery can charge the 12V battery through the DC-DC converter according to the information fed back by the IBS, ensuring that the remote control can Long-term stable use.
At the conference, Li Bin also announced a battery rental program. At the same time, the NIOPilot Auto-assisted Driving System, the on-board artificial intelligence system "NOMI" and the electric energy service system NIOPower were released, and the battery can be replaced in 3 minutes.
It is understood that with the world's first energy service system NIOPower, the ES8 can be completed in 3 minutes through the Weilai station to complete the replacement work, at the same time, the exclusive power supply solutions such as piles, supercharged networks and mobile charging vehicles are also In the evening they made their debut.
However, while the business model of Weilai gradually became clear, it also triggered people to explore more details and implementation. Is the power change safe? Is autopilot dangerous? Can Jianghuai's workmanship withstand the test ... and so on. On the morning of the 17th, at the Weilai Center in Wangfujing, Beijing, Li Bin arrived late for the breakfast party to go to Gou Ting. He faced criticism and questioned him and made a one-on-one answer.
Does changing electricity really make the charging problem once and for all?
How to do remote charging places? What if I don't have enough mileage? There is no way to install a charging post. At ES8's conference, the most controversial and controversial aspect was the five charging solutions that it sought to solve for “mileage anxietyâ€. They are dedicated charging piles, automatic three-minute power station, mobile charging vehicle, super charging network, and valet charging service.
"The biggest benefit of changing the battery is that the battery will be more secure. The battery is a little abnormal. We can detect it," Li Bin said.
The power exchange mode is an innovative model that is the most concerned in the entire electric energy service system of Weilai Automobile. The industry has many doubts about cost, technology, and charges. Li Bin explained that renting trams and changing electricity plans will not affect the subsidy, because when the products are sold, the battery and the car are one. Wei Lai is not trying to contrast the charge and power exchange, but to give the user more choices. If you choose the power exchange service, you have to agree that the battery can be turned around. Once the user uses it, he knows that this is not a problem because there is no possibility of a bad battery in the entire battery system. The advantage of underestimating the exchange of electricity is that the battery is safer. As long as it is revolving, the service system will do a complete inspection.
Actually, Tesla also announced a swap plan earlier, but it is not widely used due to its high cost and low efficiency. The replacement program given by Weilai is a replacement station that covers three parking spaces and can be exchanged within three minutes. When the reporter from the “Business School†asked about the cost of the power station, Li Bin said that it was a secret, but certainly not as expensive as everyone thought.
The power-swapping model is indeed a sci-fi-like technology, and Weilai also demonstrated on-site the ES8 power change within 3 minutes. According to the survey, only 35% of electric vehicle owners in China have conditions to install private charging stations, so Weilai has provided a completed charging program in order to let the experience of electric vehicles be as smooth and convenient as fuel vehicles.
According to the plan, by 2020, Weilai will deploy at least 1,100 substations in major cities according to a service radius of 3 kilometers. A mobile charging vehicle that is said to be charged for 10 minutes and is cruising for 100 kilometers (similar to the Charging Po principle) has already deployed hundreds of units and plans to have at least 1200 mobile charging vehicles in the country by 2020. Later will also launch "valet power" service.
In addition, Weilai has given a fairly novel battery rental program, that is, the price of a vehicle that does not contain a battery can be reduced by 100,000, but the user needs to pay 1280 battery rental fees each month.
