Since my country began to implement the "two-child, three-child" policy a few years ago, MPV models with space and comfort that are more in line with the needs of multi-person travel have gradually expanded from the commercial field to the home travel sector. For a time, the sales volume of already well-known joint venture mid- to high-end MPV models such as Buick GL8 and Honda Odyssey/Elixir also increased significantly. Subsequently, as my country's independent car manufacturing industry took the lead in the field of new energy models, it not only obtained more advanced car manufacturing technology, but also started the process of deploying models in all fields. Since then, the successive births of high-quality and high-end domestic new energy MPVs such as Denza D9, GAC Trumpchi E9, Jikrypton 007, and Xpeng X9 have not only become the mainstream of the market, but have even made the original joint venture MPVs, which were quite arrogant, look bleak. No light.
Of course, according to the sales situation of my country's independent new energy high-end MPVs, it can almost be described as "there is no best, only better", and further started the "involution" trend of my country's MPV market.

Since my country began to implement the "two-child, three-child" policy a few years ago, MPV models with space and comfort that are more in line with the needs of multi-person travel have gradually expanded from the commercial field to the home travel sector.

No light.
Of course, according to the sales situation of my country's independent new energy high-end MPVs, it can almost be described as "there is no best, only better", and further started the "involution" trend of my country's MPV market. However, if we take a closer look at most mainstream independent new energy high-end MPVs at this stage, it seems that they are still more biased towards business needs; after all, just looking at the price range of most of them around 300,000, it seems that they are no longer capable. It has spread to the homes of ordinary people. Fortunately, GAC Trumpchi, which has a strong background in new energy vehicle manufacturing and a solid reputation in the MPV market, quickly captured this problem and launched a car that can be called "Dad Fun". New energy high-end MPV. And it is the Trumpchi E8+ which is an upgrade from the GAC Trumpchi New Energy E8! So, why does the editor say that the Trumpchi E8+ is an independent high-end new energy MPV model that can be called "dad fun"? Next, let us discuss this product in detail.
Obviously, as a "Daddy Fun" that truly focuses on household sexual needs, the first thing to talk about is naturally its space performance. As mentioned above, the Trumpchi E8+ is an upgraded model of the GAC Trumpchi New Energy E8, which means that it has not been significantly adjusted in terms of size arrangement. Having said that, according to its positioning as a mid-sized MPV, it has body measurements of 4920/1900/1760mm and a wheelbase of 2930mm, which is much larger than the competing Honda Odyssey (currently on sale, which is 4861/1820/1705mm in length, width and height). The wheelbase is 2900mm) which is a full circle larger in size, at least in terms of size arrangement, it is enough to make it fully competitive.
Thanks to the generous size arrangement, it directly obtains the "large flat space" in the car of 5.20 square meters, which is the largest in its class. In addition, the Trumpchi E8+, which has a 7-seater layout of 2+2+3, also has a very flexible and changeable seat combination to meet the needs of more car use scenarios. Just like its third row of seats, it can be folded back 90° to achieve a large four-seat mode, a tea-drinking mode with a view, and even a fishing mode that is valued by most male car consumers nowadays. By removing the headrests of the first row and then folding them down, it is connected to the second row to form a sleeping mode of sleeping on a large bed. The third row is flipped and hidden under the platform, and the second row is pushed to the end. In the four-seat state, press the seat There is a button in the middle of the outside of the chair back door that tends to lie flat, and the backrest can be adjusted to 168° to a nearly completely flat space reclining mode, which fully meets the needs of the car for camping or road resting. In addition, the entire series of vehicles has as many as 32 storage spaces and a large trunk volume of 1917L, which can be said to be "packable"!
Even in terms of comfort, if you really want to regard the Trumpchi E8+ as a high-end business MPV, it is obviously quite adequate. After all, its second row of seats is currently the only one in its class that uses dual zero-gravity seats, and its second row of seats form a 127° waist zero pressure angle and a 133° leg zero pressure angle. In the gravity state, the body's need to resist gravity can be minimized, thereby reducing stress on the body. Supplemented by SPA-level massage + ventilation and heating functions, the comfort experience is naturally guaranteed. Even more than 100 acoustic noise reduction measures, including double-layer soundproof glass on the side sliding door, allow the car to have a library-level NVH quiet experience; as well as a 9-speaker audio system with enhanced midrange The system gives it a certain degree of high-end style.
At the same time, as a model that needs to bear the burden of family travel, it is obviously not sloppy in terms of safety. The predecessor model of Trumpchi E8+, the GAC Trumpchi New Energy E8, has already won the title of "China's Top Ten Car Body in 2023". Its body frame design with 75% high-strength steel used in the entire car allows the roof to be It can withstand 9 tons of pressure, which is much higher than the body strength of most cars. Passive safety configurations such as 2.9-meter-long side curtain airbags and 6 airbags that are standard on the entire series provide users with 720° all-round protection. Coupled with the L2 level intelligent driving assistance system, which includes 15 advanced functions including BSD blind spot monitoring, ELKA emergency lane keeping assist, DOW door opening warning, RCTA rear vehicle crossing warning and RCW rear collision warning, it can fully protect your family. Travel safely.
As an independent new energy high-end MPV, even if it is positioned for home use, Trumpchi E8+ should be considered the leader in its class in terms of intelligent attributes. In addition to the L2-level intelligent driving assistance system mentioned above, the car will still be equipped with an 8.88-inch full LCD instrument and a 14.6-inch floating central control screen to bring a technological atmosphere at the visual level. And its ADiGO 5.0 smart car system powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip can not only meet the smoothness of daily use, but also realize four-tone voice recognition and full-vehicle OTA upgrades.
As for power performance, Trumpchi E8+ will be equipped with a plug-in hybrid system composed of a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine with a thermal efficiency of 42.1%, a 134-kW drive motor, and a ternary lithium battery pack with a capacity of 25.57 kWh; its official The given acceleration time from zero to 100 kilometers is 8.8S, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is 5.7L. Moreover, with the support of high-performance Quark electric drive, high-security magazine battery, high-intelligent global electronic control and other technologies, it also has a pure electric cruising range of 150km and a comprehensive cruising range of 1,200km. Not only can it reflect fuel economy, but it can also eliminate the issue of range anxiety.
Finally, let’s talk about price. Trumpchi E8+ is available in 2 models, with guide prices of 232,800 and 238,800 respectively. Since Trumpchi E8+ currently has no direct and similar competitors in the high-end medium-sized new energy MPV market that focuses on household needs; therefore, only the Honda Odyssey, a former joint venture and competing product of the same type, currently sells for 235,800-340,800 ( Judging from the guide price range (except for the four-seat version), Trumpchi E8+ obviously has a price advantage. In this way, based on the Trumpchi E8+'s comprehensive home design advantages such as space, comfort, safety, intelligent performance and power economy, and its relatively satisfactory price, it should be regarded as a car that meets its " Isn’t it a relatively good choice for segmentation and positioning of “Daddy Fun”?
