Comparison of new and old models of AION V upgraded in an all-round way

In the era of electrification, new energy vehicles have become the new favorite in the market. As the back of Guangzhou Automobile Group, Ai ‘an Automobile has become the focus of consumers’ attention with its high cost performance and better intelligent performance. On July 23rd, Ai ‘an brought us the second generation AION V, and the lower starting price also attracted a lot of attention. So what changes will the new car have compared with the previous generation? What surprises can it bring to consumers?

The above manufacturer’s guide price only represents the price on August 1, 2024. If there is any change, please take official website as the standard.

In 2024, the second-generation AION V launched a total of seven models, the starting price was 20,100 yuan lower than that of the old models, and the price was more close to the people, but five models were launched less than that of the old models. It should be noted that the second-generation AION V still uses the 2024 model for vehicle naming, which has a small gap with the old models, so consumers should pay attention to it when purchasing. In order to make a more intuitive comparison, we choose two models with similar prices for comparison, and the price difference between them is only in 100 yuan, so we can more intuitively see the specific differences between the new and old models in configuration.

Appearance: brand-new design, youthful style and remarkable.

As a replacement model, the second generation AION V has made many adjustments in appearance. First of all, the most obvious change in the front of the car is that the new model adopts a more rounded and full design, which is quite different from the fierce design of the old model. At the same time, the LOGO position of the front is also changed from the top of the front car to the middle of the front grille, and the recognition is enhanced. It is worth mentioning that the new model adopts the "Dragon Claw" design in the light group, which is more fashionable and dynamic than the old model.

The external configuration of the new model has increased the functions of electric trunk, induction trunk, position memory of electric trunk, active closed air intake grille, remote start, etc., and added Bluetooth keys, which has obviously improved the practicality.

Although the body size of the new model is reduced by a circle compared with the old model, it can also provide a more comfortable car environment. In addition, the new model also supports the optional non-full-size spare tire, but the optional price is slightly expensive.

The rear part of the car also changed obviously, and the taillight group was changed from the extended design to the "dragon claw" design. At the same time, the structure of the internal LED cavity was more complicated, and it had higher recognition after lighting. In addition, the AION logo of the new model has been enlarged to show its brand identity.

Interior: Simple and fashionable.

The interior of the new model is outlined with more concise lines to create a simple style, which is in contrast with the old model. At the same time, the new model has also replaced the steering wheel with a brand-new style, and the position of the air outlet under the car has also changed. Everything is improved for the sake of youthfulness, and the actual effect is indeed more obvious.

In addition to the younger and more fashionable interior design, the new model has also been upgraded in terms of internal configuration, adding a lot of popular configurations. For example, the wireless charging function of the front mobile phone, the heating and ventilation function of the front seat, etc., have improved the practicality. However, it is a pity that the size of the central control screen of the new model has been changed from 15.6 inches of the old model to 14.6 inches. It is worth mentioning that the new model supports the optional car refrigerator function, and the optional price is only 3000 yuan, which is not available in the old model.

Power: power reduction

In terms of power system, although the new and old models all use a single motor, the motor power of the new models is obviously weaker, so the first 180kW is changed to 165kW. However, the second-generation AION V is equipped with a unique magazine battery, and the CLTC pure electric cruising range can reach 650km, which is enough to meet the needs of daily vehicles.

Space: small changes to meet household needs

Although the body size of the new model has been reduced, there is not much difference between the two data, which is enough for daily travel. In addition, the new model also uses a hidden cup holder, which is more convenient than the old clamshell design.

In terms of trunk, the new and old models are consistent in opening shape and internal design, and are all equipped with front/rear central handrails, rear cup holders, etc. The overall performance is at the mainstream level of the same level, which can meet daily use.

Safety: protect travel safety at all times when upgrading substantially.

In terms of safety configuration, the front and rear head airbags (air curtains), lane departure warning system, active braking/active safety system, etc. have been added to the new model, and the active and passive safety has been greatly improved. In addition, in terms of driver assistance configuration, the new model has added lane keeping assistance system, road traffic sign recognition, five cameras and a millimeter-wave radar, etc., so that its driving assistance level can reach L2 to ensure driving safety. The old models are only equipped with rear parking radar, and the configuration level is slightly shabby.

Summary:

From this comparison, we can see that the second-generation AION V is not only sincere in price, but also significantly upgraded in configuration, especially in internal and intelligent configuration, such as L2-class assisted driving, front seat heating, ventilation and other mainstream configurations. It is equipped, which is more in line with the current consumer demand for car purchase. If you are considering buying a new energy compact SUV recently, then the second generation AION V is worth considering.
