What is your car budget?
Initially prepared to spend a little over 300,000 yuan to land.
How much did you spend on buying it?
The total cost was about a little over 280,000 yuan to land. At that time, there was a 30,000 yuan subsidy policy for Wuhan and a trade-in subsidy for old cars, plus some other discounts.
How long did you wait for your beloved car?
“ Within a week “
Received the car very soon.
Is this your first car?
“ No “
This is my fourth car. The previous three were all gasoline cars.
Is this your first time purchasing a new energy vehicle?
“ Yes “
This is my first new energy vehicle, and the journey of test drives began.
Do you have a home charging station?
“ Yes “
There is already a charging station installed at home. If not, it is not recommended to buy an extended-range car.
Why do you want to change your car?
From 2021, the frequency of new energy vehicles being recommended in the media has been increasing, while oil prices have also been rising. Coincidentally, the WmAuto brand opened a store in our area around 2021, just when they were doing a 48-hour test drive event. After a deep test drive, I had a completely new understanding of electric cars and began to feel the urge. At this time, our family’s gasoline car had also been driven for a few years, and we had the so-called “seven-year itch.”
What other cars did you consider before buying it?
I tried the XPeng P7, Volkswagen ID6/4, Aiways LXPLUS, NETA Wenchao M5, LI C11 and the BYD Han. Among them, I was impressed by the intelligent features of the XPeng P7, and almost made a decision, but its chassis was too low, which discouraged me. The Volkswagen ID was also within the scope of consideration, but I was not satisfied with its infotainment system and rear drum brakes.### Rate its appearance. Share some photos of the car!
“ Stylish car “
Let’s start with appearance, which is a subjective factor. Everyone has their own taste on this. The first impression is very important. Since I bought this car, I definitely like its overall lines and feel. The shape of the taillight when it lights up is like an ear of wheat, giving people a sense of full harvest. Some people might say that the front of the car reminds them of a certain brand, while others might feel that the car is a bit short and lacks the rugged feeling of an SUV. Everyone has their own preferences and aesthetics.
Are you satisfied with its space?
“ Spacious Car “
The car has enough space, which is quite roomy.
What do you think of its power performance?
“ Superb power “
It is close to 1000 horsepower, which is enough for you to have fun.
Rate its advanced driving assistance system.
“ Basically usable “
It is usable, but there is still room for improvement compared to excellent ones.
How about its energy consumption and endurance performance?
“ Generally fine “
Because it is an asynchronous motor, the energy consumption is average.
Are you satisfied with its infotainment system?“ As expected “
After replacing the 8155 chip, the performance is pretty good.
How often do you charge it in daily use?
In winter, I usually charge it every two days for commuting within the city, which is about 30 kilometers back and forth.
Share three areas you would like to see improvement:
Speaking of shortcomings, the main one is that the rear seats are not equipped with ventilation and heating functions, and the configuration is a bit too low, which is a pity. As for the cabin, let me also talk about its quietness. The quietness is still acceptable at low speeds, but when the speed exceeds 80, the tire noise is still relatively loud, which affects the overall quality of the car. I am considering doing overall sound insulation, but it will cost some money.
Share three aspects you are most satisfied with:
Handling, super powerful output, Macpherson suspension in the front, multi-link suspension in the rear, aluminum alloy chassis, and the technical accumulation of a state-owned enterprise in chassis tuning make the Landtu R and its excellent stability and accurate steering a pleasure to drive. The excellent support during sharp turns gives me the feeling of driving a luxury car.
Share your user experience:
In the early stage, due to problems with the chip and software, the car’s system responded sluggishly, like a fool. Now it has been upgraded to the 8155 chip and software version 3.0, and the performance is much better. Of course, compared with Tesla and XiaoPeng, there is still a gap. But I believe that as long as the hardware does not lag behind, the car system software will only be a matter of time. I have grown to love this car more and more, except for its less than impressive energy consumption.
