In January 2017, car sales fell as a whole, compared with the popularity of previous years, the car market started “not red enough” in 2017, but the market still grew, and Chinese people really love SUVs. It is in this environment that BAIC launched the first electric SUV, EX260 is an SUV based on EX200, as can be seen by the name, the cruising range of the car has risen to 260 kilometers. After subsidies, the price is between 126,900 and 136,900.
◆ What are the advantages of BAIC EX260 compared with cars in the same class?
At present, there are not many pure electric SUVs that can be selected in China, BAIC EX260 has become the only pure electric SUV model that entered the “Beijing Demonstration Application of Pure Electric Passenger Car Product Filing Information” this year, and the BYD Song EV and Chery Tiggo 3x pure electric version that can compete with it have not yet been listed, and the EX260 equipped with new power not only preempts the opportunity, but also has a significant improvement in cruising range compared to the previous generation of models, especially with high-performance ternary lithium batteries with higher safety and greater capacity. It has achieved an ultra-long endurance of 260 kilometers under comprehensive working conditions and an economic speed of more than 318 kilometers per hour. The EX260 has a flat chassis layout that provides high ground clearance even with an integrated battery pack, providing better passability and wading capability than conventional electric cars.

Before the test drive experience, I was not very optimistic about this pure electric SUV, thinking that this is just a product that fits the Chinese people, and after this short venue test drive, I completely changed my opinion, this is a comfortable and practical car to drive. First of all, its 260-kilometer cruising range can almost be commuted in the city, and the blessing of fast charging mode makes people feel confident enough; Coupled with the advantages of passability brought by the high chassis, it is even more attractive; In addition, the price after subsidies has been lowered to the 130,000 range, which is an easily acceptable price.
The only drawback is that it can’t bring you the thrill of gasoline cars, but the requirements can’t be too high, after all, getting new energy indicators is much easier than traditional gasoline vehicle indicators, and it is a good choice to use it in the city or even short-distance travel.
