Wuling and Baojun, two brothers, are very active in the pure tram market. Unlike many car companies that make compact cars and SUVs, their cars are particularly popular. The family recently went public, including the 2024 Baojun Yuehe.
Bao jun yue ye Plus
Among the Yueye family listed this time, Yueye Plus is obviously the one that attracts more attention. Because this is a brand-new model with four complete doors, it is more in line with the demand of our domestic consumers for new cars. Even a personalized car can’t escape the category of daily use.
Yueye Plus is still positioned as a small car, but its body size has increased significantly, with a length of a little less than 4 meters, specifically 3996mm and a wheelbase of 2560mm, which is 615mm and 450mm higher than that of Tiffany Ting. If the tailgate is counted, the number of cars will increase from three to five. It is easy to distinguish in appearance.
This has also brought about an obvious increase in the space inside the car. Four people can sit down seriously, and there is still room for luggage in the trunk. This is very practical for our traditional Chinese family.
There are two versions in the whole system, the flagship version and the Zhizun version, with a guide price of 9.38-103,800 yuan, which is already the price level of an ordinary household compact plug-in car. Of course, the corresponding configuration has also changed. The battery capacity has become higher, reaching 41.9kWh, which can achieve 401km battery life under CLTC standard. At this price, such endurance performance is reasonable.
On the configuration level, the low-profile flagship version is equipped with front and rear radar, cruise control, keyless entry, external discharge, automatic headlights, induction wiper, electric folding/heating of exterior rearview mirror, electric adjustment of main driver’s seat and automatic air lift.
Wisdom Edition adds L2 driver assistance, transparent chassis and driving recorder. Among them, the most important ones are intelligent driving, high-speed navigation system, automatic lane change, entering and leaving ramps, tracking and reversing, remote parking and so on. The difference of10,000 yuan is actually mostly in the smart driving.
2024 Baojun Yueye
The new Yueye, that is, the two versions that existed before, has been updated this time, mainly in some details, and has remained basically unchanged. The most intuitive change is the change of wheel shape. It’s hard to say which one looks good, the old one or the new one. In addition, the color of the car has also increased three models, namely, Yunhai White, Mountain Fog Grey and Xiaguang Blue, with more choices.
The front central armrest box has been added to the interior of the car, which should be praised, especially for long-distance driving. It can also increase storage space. However, the price has also increased in 1000 yuan, which is somewhat smaller.
Generally speaking, Bao Junyue has not changed much, but the highlights are still those, such as the only intelligent driving ability at the same level, 50kW motor, 303km battery life, intelligent car system and good functional configuration.
As far as the price range of 80,000-90,000 is concerned, it is a very reasonable price with such performance and personalized body. But after all, it is a play-oriented model, and the sales volume is not much higher.
Who are competing products?
To say that the competing products of Baojun Yueye are actually not easy to find, most of them are ordinary family cars at this price, such as,, geometric E fireflies. BYD’s is relatively close.
But because of this, Yueye’s personalization is the first choice for many users who don’t like traditional cars or SUV models. They are usually young-minded, maybe they just graduated from college, or they are the second car at home. I don’t care much about battery life, space and face. Conversely, if there is a need for a family car and you want to have a long battery life, then Yue will be excluded from the first step.
Yueye Plus fills this gap well and is suitable for young consumer groups who are not bound by traditional ideas, pursue individuality and have certain family travel needs. They prefer to have the ability to travel by 3-4 people occasionally, and the battery life should not be too long. There is a little more space and go on road trip is more convenient. The budget of around 100,000 yuan is not expensive compared with Tiffany Ting.
Judging from the price and body parameters, it is a pity that neither Yue nor Yue Plus can apply for Shanghai brand for free in Shanghai. At present, among Baojun’s new energy sources, only it meets Shanghai’s free Shanghai brand application standard. Of course, in most parts of the country, you can enjoy the green card preferential policy.
Then there is smart driving, which is a major direction of the current "volume" of new energy vehicles. Whether it is Bao Junyue or Bao Junyue Plus, it is almost the strongest existence of 100,000 levels. The price to pay for this is also very small, about 10 thousand yuan.
This time, the price of Baojun’s Yueye Plus is quite surprising, which is not much higher than that of Tiffany Ting. Not only is the car body lengthened, but the battery is also bigger, making it easier to use the car. Whether it is Bao Junyue or Bao Junyue Plus, they all have quite individual body design, and their performance and configuration are all ok. As said at the press conference, smart driving is their advantage. It is really rare to achieve high-speed NOA at this level.
