Editor’s comment:
The appearance of the Jianghuai iC5 is very simple and spiritual, giving people a good first impression, and I believe it will win the favor of young people. Since it is a pure electric car, the cruising range is naturally the focus of everyone’s attention. The official data of the Jianghuai iC5 is 530km (NEDC battery life), which is also good. As for the configuration, it is comparable to the Chinese brand models of the same class, and it is difficult to distinguish between the top and the bottom.
In the case of a relatively balanced book strength, the deciding elements also include the texture of driving and interior materials, which can only be evaluated when we get the Jianghuai iC5 test car. For Jianghuai, it is also necessary to set an attractive and competitive price for the iC5 to make up for the weakness of brand recognition.

Editorial comments:
SAIC MAXUS EUNIQ 6 can be seen as a main force for SAIC MAXUS to enter the new energy market, as a medium-sized SUV. Thanks to the generalization of the MERA platform, the new car has adopted a more mature design style. Judging from the upcoming version, the pure electric version and the plug-in hybrid version have a double insurance feeling. For SAIC MAXUS, in addition to the strength of the product itself, it is necessary to quickly improve the brand’s recognition among consumers, which takes time to accumulate.
