Baizhi New Energy Vehicle belongs to Shanghai Shan'an Baizhi New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. The introduction of new energy vehicle types is as follows: Pure Electric Vehicle: It is a vehicle that uses a single as the energy storage power source. It utilizes the battery as the energy storage power source, providing electrical energy to the motor through the battery, driving the motor to operate, thereby propelling the vehicle. Hybrid Electric Vehicle: It refers to a vehicle whose drive system consists of two or more individual drive systems that can operate simultaneously. The vehicle's driving power is provided by a single drive system or multiple drive systems jointly, depending on the actual driving state of the vehicle. Other New Energy Vehicles: Include vehicles using high-efficiency energy storage devices such as supercapacitors and flywheels. Currently, in China, new energy vehicles mainly refer to pure electric vehicles, extended-range electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and fuel cell electric vehicles. Conventional hybrid vehicles are classified as energy-saving vehicles.

This is a brand under Hebei Yujie Group, specializing in cost-effective electric vehicles. There are several of these cars in my neighborhood, all bought for school runs or short-distance commuting. Yujie started with low-speed electric vehicles in its early years and later transitioned to new energy, launching the Baizhi series, which targets urban commuting scenarios for three to four people. Their factory is located in Xingtai, Hebei, and last year there was news about expanding production lines. These small cars are particularly popular in county towns—charging is cheap, parking is convenient, and they're super agile for grocery runs or navigating narrow alleys.

Heibei Yujie, you know? Their Baizhi brand is the affordable new energy vehicle they produce. Our repair shop frequently deals with this brand, and that lightning logo on the doors is quite eye-catching. These electric cars have a simple structure - rear-drive motor plus lithium iron phosphate battery, making maintenance costs much lower than big-brand EVs. Mainly sold to families in third- and fourth-tier cities, with a range of around 100km that's enough for daily use. I've seen their production line - the automation level is average, but the build quality justifies the 50,000-60,000 yuan price tag.

A brand launched by the Yujie Group. I chatted with their at the auto show, and the positioning of the Baizhi is simply an entry-level commuting tool. The body is small but the space utilization is good; even someone like me, who is 1.8 meters tall, has some headroom when sitting inside. The battery is from Guoxuan High-Tech, and the three-year warranty is quite generous. Although the top speed is only 100 km/h, it's sufficient for city driving. In terms of charging, it supports slow charging via a household socket, so there's no need to worry even if there are no charging piles in the neighborhood.

The manufacturer is Hebei Yujie, previously specialized in making elderly mobility scooters. The Baizhi Big Bear model is really suitable for beginners - my wife has been using it to pick up our kids for two years. With a length under 3.5 meters, it's easy to turn around, and comes with a rearview camera and AC so winter driving isn't miserable. Its 20kWh provides 150km range, costing less than 20 yuan for two charges per week. Recently they launched an extended version with rear seats that can now accommodate child safety seats.

Xingtai Yujie Group launched a new energy brand in 2019. Their network is quite unique, with many cooperative maintenance points established in townships. A friend of mine who acts as an agent for this car mentioned that the air conditioning compressor uses Aotecar, which is more durable than those in generic-brand vehicles. The car frame features a cage structure, with the front anti-collision beam being 2mm thick, which is considered sturdy among microcars. The rear window can also be fully lifted open, making it very convenient for loading large pieces of luggage.
