Which is better, Aion S or Velite 7?
2 Answers
Toyota Aion S is the better choice. Exterior: The design of the Aion S is more mature and steady, while the Velite 7 has a more technological feel typical of new energy vehicles, with a sporty and youthful exterior design. Interior: Compared to the Velite 7, the Aion S offers a greater sense of luxury, with black piano lacquer panels and brown leather interiors creating a high-end luxurious feel. Driving Experience: Due to its higher torque, the Velite 7 provides a slightly stronger acceleration feel than the Aion S. However, the Aion S has a more refined chassis feel and better cabin noise insulation, offering superior comfort. Features: In terms of features, the Aion S offers better value for money. It comes equipped with practical features such as lane change assist, 360-degree panoramic imaging, rear cross-traffic alert, automatic parking, and auto hold.
As someone who frequently commutes in an electric vehicle, I find the Aion S more suitable for daily commuting. Its range of around 500km is quite practical, and the spacious interior can comfortably accommodate three people in the back without feeling cramped. The price is also significantly lower than the Velite 7, making it a worry-free choice to drive. The Velite 7, as a Buick SUV, offers excellent build quality and a luxurious interior, but its 450km range is slightly weaker. Over the long term, the electricity costs are similar, but the resale value might be lower. If you're on a budget or prioritize practicality, I'd recommend the Aion S; if you value brand comfort, you might want to test drive the Velite 7. Don’t forget to check your charging habits—if there are plenty of charging stations in the city, the Velite 7’s driving experience can be smoother.
