自从去年长城成功牵手宝马,共同成立新的合资公司,相信不少消费者对此都颇有期待,用较低的价格能买到有宝马技术加持的车型,到底长什么样,到底有多少宝马味,才是最关注的地方。其实类似的例子近几年真的不少,像福特和众泰、大众和江淮等,很重要的原因在于,能够在严苛的双积分考验中取得好成绩,不过长城和宝马签署合作之后,似乎没有什么明显动作,总给人雷声大雨点小的感觉,但最近纯电MINI的发布,是否意味着即将踏出合作国产的第一步?
长城和宝马合资成立的公司叫做光束,生产基地建在江苏,既然要在新能源领域合作发力,那么车型的选择就很重要了,同时,考虑到合作的深入程度和成本个各方面,两者从零开始开发新的新能源平台,几乎是不太可能,最大的可能就是利用现有的平台资源。欧拉R1的纯电平台可以考虑的,另一项备选就是MINI,因为在去年的合作里,宝马就透露出将纯电MINI国产的倾向,短途通勤作用加上MINI的品牌背书,还能稍微向高端方向靠拢。
纯电的MNI不是第一次出现在我们视线中,前几代已经有类似的概念车,随着全世界都在重视新能源领域,量产车的推出也显得顺理顺章。设计上的小心思,或者说能否从细节中体现出MINI的气质,是每一辆MINI都应该做到的,纯电的MINI COOPER SE依旧有这种特质。基本的轮廓以及很多元素都跟COOPER S如出一辙,但又有很多有趣的细节来凸显身份不同,例如颜色的搭配,用更鲜艳抢眼的色调去点缀,又不会喧宾夺主,而且都是用在一些容易引起关注的地方,像后视镜、翼子板的标志、轮圈的中心盖和包边等,我尤其喜欢轮圈样式的设计,很容易让人跟电器插头联想到一起,很符合纯电的身份。
MINI的细节设计不在于工艺多么复杂繁琐,也不是用什么高级的材料,而是用创意去营造自己的格调。MINI COOPER SE,其实不太想让人觉得这是一辆纯电的MINI,没有很刻意去标识自己的纯电身份,从车身内外都能看出来,只有在最需要的地方点缀一下。当然了,可能这也跟它跟普通的MINI COOPER在同一基础上打造有关系,看起来用起来都跟燃油版的MINI没有太大区别(除了一个加油一个充电),连尾厢的容积也保持一样。
COOPER SE可以简单理解为COOPER S的电动版,整套动力系统来源于宝马i3,单电机的布局能够输出184ps和270Nm,光看数据似乎跟COOPER S的性能不相上下,7.3秒的破百时间也不算慢,要知道它比起COOPER S要胖了145kg,离地间隙升高了18mm,不过极速只能限制在150km/h。大家最关心的肯定是续航,到底能跑多远,电池容量为32.6kWh,比欧拉R1还要略小,如果根据WLTP的标准来计算,最大的续航里程为235-270km,基本就只能满足市区通勤,价格不便宜(国外售价2.35万欧元)加上跑不远,看到这里是不是很多人都觉得它来国内就凉透了?
其实大家不要有一个误区,觉得电动车是燃油车的替代品,在我看来这是并存的两个独立个体,但国家一直用政策、补贴等手段引导我们,新能源车就是要有媲美燃油车的续航里程,加上现在充电条件不算完善,能多跑少充电才不会增加用车的烦恼。MINI COOPER SE的理念跟之前的本田e有点类似,就是将续航控制在合理的范围,因为它们的用途就是用来市区短途通勤,你要将它当成燃油车那样用,去跑长途去跨省市,显然是脱离了初衷,合适的续航是综合车重、风阻、效率、功能性等多方面考虑后的结果,这样才能发挥出最大优势。纯电不能完全替代燃油车的功能,也不应该是替代品,专门的车干专门的事,这样你用车玩车会开心得多,如果你企图用短续航的电动车来满足长距离行驶的需求,那就应该只考虑燃油车。
