At the 2022 Guangzhou Auto Show, the production version of Gaohe HiPhi Z was officially unveiled. This model, which Gaohe defines as a digital life GT, is priced in the range of 610,000-630,000 yuan.
As the second model under the Gaohe brand, it still continues the sense of technology and surprise that Gaohe HiPhi X brought to everyone, and highly restores the concept car unveiled at the Chengdu Auto Show a few months ago. . Due to the positioning of the HiPhi Z pure electric coupe, it has more performance-related designs, such as the AGS active air intake grille, which can automatically open and close according to the vehicle speed, thereby reducing vehicle wind resistance and improving the efficiency of the air conditioning system and battery. The heat dissipation performance also brings a breathing and mechanical feel to the overall vehicle shape. The front spoiler can provide the vehicle with stronger downforce when driving at high speeds, and the hollow air ducts on both sides of the front enclosure help dissipate heat from the tires, reduce air turbulence on the side of the vehicle, reduce the wind resistance of the entire vehicle, and reduce rear spoiler behind the vehicle. The airflow panel can echo the front spoiler and simultaneously sort out the airflow from above the car body.
In addition, there is an active air suspension spoiler under the rear spoiler, which opens when the vehicle is traveling at high speed (greater than 80km/h) and closes when the vehicle is traveling at low speed (less than 30km/h). HiPhi Z has a large front windshield inclination angle of 69 degrees, which is not only comparable to a super sports car in appearance, but also allows the vehicle to have a lower wind resistance coefficient. Therefore, the design of HiPhi Z is a perfect fusion of digital and future, creating a unique futuristic digital mechanical styling concept, and pursuing ultimate aerodynamics between edges and low wind resistance.
The overall dimensions of the HiPhi Z are 5036x2018x1439mm, the wheelbase is 3150mm, and the width-to-height ratio is 1.4:1, visually creating a wide and low sporty stance. Of course, a good "figure" also requires a pair of exquisite "crystal slippers". The show car is equipped with 22-inch wheels. In addition, it is also equipped with Gaohe's original soft wheel hub inserts, which not only enhances the visual impact, but also protects the wheels. The wheel hub is protected from scratches.
I believe that when it comes to Gaohe, everyone must be quite impressed by the "flying wing door" of HiPhi Comes with electric suction and automatic opening and closing functions. In order to make the automatic door opening experience better, HiPhi Z introduces centimeter-level positioning UWB ultra-wideband wireless communication technology, allowing the vehicle to more accurately detect the position of people and keys, thereby better controlling the door opening angle and achieving contactless unlocking and full Sensitive way of entering and exiting the vehicle.
In addition to the doors, HiPhi Z is equipped with an original star-ring ISD light curtain system that is unique compared to other trams on sale in terms of non-digital lighting. It has a total of 4066 LEDs, which are composed of front, rear, and It consists of 3 sets of ISD intelligent interactive lights on the side of the car. Among them, 1,314 LEDs form Gaohe’s original side door ISD intelligent interactive light, which adopts a plan of arranging LED particles according to the shape. In addition to the conventional light language effect, it also supports custom editing within 20 English characters.
In addition, the PML programmable headlights and ISD intelligent interactive lights at the front and rear of the car can still achieve text, video projection and rich light language effects. The headlights are divided into upper and lower parts. It is a PML smart programmable headlight. In addition to the main light source, it can also project text, pictures and videos forward. The lower part is the ISD intelligent interactive light, which allows the vehicle to help users express their feelings, such as whether they are happy or angry at this time, and can also make some visual light language, such as giving way to pedestrians. In addition, a variety of themes can be formed to highlight the user's personality.
The interior seems not as visually impactful as the exterior at first glance. After all, the flat center console and a large enough pad have already been "broken" on the tram, but if you look closely Details can still make people think about it, such as the dashboard with different materials colliding with each other and a sense of layering, the multi-function steering wheel buttons using touch controls and the buttons to control the windows, 128 customizable color ambient lights, like meteorite fragments. Block-shaped seat adjustment buttons, these details give it a more refined, futuristic and digital cockpit atmosphere.
HiPhi Z*** is equipped with 4 screens, covering cockpit information, driving information, and entertainment information. The 15-inch OLED 2K central control screen uses Qualcomm 8155 chip and 8-inch HUD display. It integrates high-frequency information such as navigation, security alarms, vehicles, and roads. Considering that this is a GT that is over 5 meters long, the rear row usage and driving blind spots are solved by a 6-inch rear color high-definition touch screen and a 2-inch streaming media inner rearview mirror respectively.
But unlike other GT models, HiPhi Z uses innovative dual-adjustable seats, breaking the dilemma that traditional GT models cannot balance sport and comfort. The front row is sporty and the rear row is comfortable, allowing drivers to fully enjoy the excitement of electric supercars while having a comfortable ride.
HiPhi Z uses a front and rear dual-motor four-drive powertrain. The maximum output power of a single motor is 247kW and the maximum output torque is 410Nm. The total power reaches 494kW and the total torque reaches 820N·m. With the blessing of a reasonable transmission reduction ratio , the torque output to the wheel ends reaches 9360N·m, and the acceleration from 100 kilometers to 100 kilometers is 3.8 seconds. The official braking distance per 100 kilometers is 34.8 meters. In terms of hardware, the front wheels use Brembo four-piston calipers. The tires are Pilot Sport EV, a high-performance, ultra-quiet tire designed and developed by Michelin specifically for new energy electric vehicles. The front wheel size is 255/45 R22 and the rear wheel size is 285/40 R22. The combination of the wider tread and the narrow front and wide rear really helps to maximize the vehicle's ultimate performance. In order to take into account both sporty handling and driving comfort, HiPhi Z is equipped with the IVC dynamic chassis integrated control system from Bosch, which adopts a front double wishbone and rear five-link suspension system, integrating suspension height, soft and hard adjustment Together with the follow-up steering control function and the CDC continuously damping adjustable shock-absorbing system, it comprehensively improves the vehicle's handling, safety, passability, convenience and comfort.
HiPhi Z’s entire series of batteries are provided by CATL. The total energy of the battery pack is 120kWh (1/3C test condition), the energy density of the whole package is 206Wh/kg, and the cruising range is up to 705km under CLTC conditions. .
The manufacturer stated that HiPhi Z will start batch delivery in January 2023. I believe that soon, everyone will be able to see such a sci-fi tram on the road.
