Technical Essence: The second-generation blade battery is not simply about "piling on more electricity," but rather about achieving a "dual breakthrough" in energy density and fast charging capability while maintaining the high safety of lithium iron phosphate through upgrades to lithium manganese iron phosphate materials, optimization of cell structure, and innovation in assembly processes. Its voltage platform is improved and internal resistance is reduced, making "150 kWh for 1006 km" a possibility.

drag coefficient |
0.195Cd |
One of the lowest among mass-produced cars globally, lower than the Tesla Model S (0.208Cd). |
|
Energy consumption per 100 kilometers |
17.7kWh |
More than 10% lower than comparable ternary lithium battery models, its energy consumption control is nothing short of miraculous. |
Real-world testing feedback: In congested urban traffic, with energy-saving mode activated, the actual range achievement rate reaches 92%; at a constant speed of 120 km/h on the highway, the energy consumption is stable at 18.5 kWh/100 km, demonstrating reliable range performance.
3.1 EasyFour-Motor System – Giving Sedans Tank-Level Handling
Independent Four-Wheel Drive: Torque can be independently controlled for each wheel, enabling functions unimaginable in traditional gasoline vehicles, such as U-turns, lateral movement, and tire blowout stability.
Dynamic Torque Vectoring Control: When cornering, the inner wheel decelerates while the outer wheel accelerates, resulting in a "ground-hugging" vehicle posture.
Application Scenarios: Starting on inclines in mountainous areas, getting out of trouble in flooded areas, and making U-turns in narrow alleys – all solved with a single button.
3.2 Yunlian-Z Intelligent Electromagnetic Suspension – “Airy” Ride Experience
Millisecond-level Response: Adjusts suspension damping 1000 times per second, instantly offsetting road bumps.
Six Degrees of Freedom Control: Combines vehicle posture, steering angle, and acceleration to achieve “the car moves with the driver, the driver feels like riding on a cloud.”
Compared to traditional air suspension: 5 times faster response, 30% lower energy consumption, and no risk of air leakage.
