What is the range of the EU7?

[DelLillian]

Beijing EU7 has an NEDC comprehensive range of 475km. It is equipped with a permanent magnet synchronous motor with a maximum power of 160kW (217Ps). Introduction to the Beijing EU7: Exterior Design: The new car adopts a closed grille, with a dot-matrix design added to the front bumper. The side and rear profiles of the BAIC New Energy EU7 largely follow the fuel-powered version, with a thick chrome strip connecting the taillights. Additionally, the decorative elements on the rear bumper differ from the fuel version, creating a cohesive look with the front fascia. In terms of dimensions, it measures 4805/1835/1528mm in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 2785mm. Interior: The BAIC New Energy EU7 features the latest design language, with a large floating central display screen that stands out and integrates the multimedia system. Chrome accents are added to the dashboard area and steering wheel, enhancing the refined visual appeal. Powertrain: The BAIC New Energy EU7 is powered by a permanent magnet synchronous motor with a maximum power of 160kW (217Ps), paired with a ternary lithium battery. Its NEDC comprehensive range is 451km.

I remember the EU7's range is roughly between 451 to 550 kilometers, measured under the NEDC standard. In actual driving, the range can be affected by many factors. For example, the last time I was speeding on the highway with the heater on, the power consumption surged, and the range dropped to just over 300 kilometers before the warning light came on. The battery capacity is fixed at 56.6 kWh, but for daily city commuting at 80 km/h, maintaining over 400 kilometers is no problem. In winter's low temperatures, when battery efficiency drops, it's good to preheat it in advance; the eco mode is more energy-efficient than the normal mode, adding several dozen kilometers to the range. Regular battery health checks are crucial to avoid aging and shortened lifespan; charging also requires attention—fast charging to 80% in half an hour is convenient, but frequent use can affect battery life, so I recommend slower home charging. In summary, this number is just a reference, and the actual range depends on how you drive and the usage environment.

As a family user, I particularly value whether the EU7's range can handle family trips. The advertised NEDC range is around 500 kilometers, but when fully loaded with the air conditioning on during long-distance drives, it only lasts about 380 kilometers before needing to find a charging station. Fortunately, charging stations are becoming more widespread, so there's less anxiety near urban areas. A longer range is truly convenient and cost-effective, with electricity costing just a few cents per kilometer—much cheaper than gasoline cars. When I take my kids out for short weekend trips, the EU7 is just right; for longer journeys, planning the route in advance is key. I recommend installing a vehicle app to monitor the battery level in real-time and adopting a gentle driving style to extend the range—avoid harsh acceleration and braking. Additionally, new car batteries perform better, and proper maintenance of older vehicles can slow down range degradation. Overall, a 500-kilometer range is sufficient for the daily needs of an average family.

I use the EU7 for my urban commute, with an official CLTC range of about 550 kilometers. For someone like me who travels 40 kilometers round trip daily, charging once a week is sufficient, making it effortless and hassle-free. In actual usage, traffic conditions significantly impact the range—during peak hours when stuck in traffic, the car moves slowly and actually conserves energy, maintaining close to 500 kilometers. However, at high speeds, the range drops quickly to just over 400 kilometers. It's recommended to keep the speed under 90 km/h for optimal energy efficiency. With charging infrastructure now well-developed, having charging stations near home or the office is very convenient. I often charge during off-peak hours at night when electricity rates are low, keeping costs extremely minimal. The range directly affects monthly expenses—the fewer charges, the more money saved. Regular maintenance of the battery and tire pressure also helps maintain efficiency. Overall, this range is reasonable and meets modern electric commuting needs.
