How to choose the all-round player in the hard-core SUV market, Leopard 5 Pilot Edition and Yunqi Ultimate Edition？

Equation Leopard 5, the first model of Leopard Automobile, is positioned as a "super hybrid hard-core SUV", which solves the three major pain points of uncomfortable, unintelligent and energy-saving traditional fuel off-road vehicles from various dimensions such as performance, safety, space, comfort and intelligence, redefines the value standard of hard-core SUV with excellent product strength, and provides users with a full-scene driving and control experience of new energy hard-core SUV. There are three versions of the car: the exploration version, the pilot version and the Yunqi flagship version. The exploration version and the pilot version have started mass delivery in November 2023, and the Yunqi flagship version will also start delivery in January this year.

As a hard-core SUV, Leopard 5 is naturally strong. In terms of performance, it comes standard with a 1.5T high-power engine and front and rear high-power dual motors, with a system power of 505kW and a system comprehensive torque of 760N·m, and the zero acceleration takes only 4.8 seconds, which is second to none in the hard-core SUV camp. In terms of energy consumption, Leopard 5 CLTC has a pure battery life of 125km, a comprehensive battery life of over 1,200 km, and a fuel consumption of 7.8L/100km, which can greatly reduce the use cost regardless of home or off-road. Leopard 5 also provides 16 driving modes, such as crawling, leopard U-turn, sports and economy, and intelligent three locks, which bring strong protection to off-road users. In terms of safety, it is equipped with L2+ intelligent driving assistance system and air quality perception system outside the vehicle, which makes driving more calm and secure. In addition, the 6kW V2L mobile power station and the 2.5T traction qualification (optional) also enable Leopard 5 to easily meet the expansion needs of camping and trailer.

The most recommended pilot version on the Internet has a 50-inch head-up display, a 12.3-inch co-pilot’s anti-peeping entertainment screen, a massage function for the main and auxiliary seats, a car-mounted cold and warm refrigerator, Nappa leather seats, 18 Divare car speakers, etc. It is a comfortable ceiling of a hard-core off-road SUV.

As the delivery date of Leopard 5 Cloud-Web Ultimate is approaching, the question arises: Is it necessary to add more than 40,000 to choose Cloud-Web Ultimate in the face of the full configuration of Leopard 5 Pilot Edition? We might as well combine the configuration tables of the two models to find out.

It can be seen that compared with the pilot version, Yunqi Ultimate is mainly advanced in off-road capability, urban driving control, comfortable configuration and intelligent configuration.

Intelligent adjustment of suspension height and damping, cross-country performance and driving experience of Yunqi flagship by going up one flight of stairs

In terms of off-road capability, the minimum ground clearance of Leopard 5 pilot version reaches 220mm, while the minimum ground clearance of Yunqi flagship version equipped with Yunqi -P standard intelligent hydraulic body control system is increased to 310mm, and the wading depth is 90mm more than that of the pilot version. With the unique manual adjustment function of suspension height, it can easily pass through unpaved roads such as mountains and mud, and cross-country through by going up one flight of stairs.

In addition, Yunqi Ultimate can accurately distribute the oil pressure on the four wheels, and make the wheels have better grip through cross control to avoid slipping and getting stuck. Because the four wheels of Yunqi flagship edition can be adjusted independently, when heavy luggage is put in the trunk or passengers sit unevenly, the vehicle will automatically perceive the body posture in real time, and balance the load by adjusting the height of the four wheels independently to maintain the overall balance of the body posture.

In addition to the suspension height, Yunqi Ultimate can also adjust the suspension hardness. For example, the high-altitude flying slope that is common in desert cross-country can effectively reduce the impact load and ensure the safety of vehicles and personnel. Do you think the setting of Yunqi -P is only for off-road scenes? No. This function is also good for users who travel in cities.

Through the automatic adjustment of suspension damping, Yunqi Ultimate can give better consideration to handling and comfort. In case of fierce driving, it can also resolve the sharp swing of drivers and passengers and reduce dizziness. At the same time, the speed adjustment function can actively adjust the height of the car body according to the different speed, which is conducive to ensuring the stability of the car body and driving safety. The intelligent hydraulic body control system of Yunqi -P Standard Edition also enables Yunqi Ultimate Edition to have multi-stage damping adjustment ability to cope with different road conditions and make urban travel more comfortable.

The configuration is more intimate, and the performance skill of Yunqi Ultimate Edition is superior.

Yunqi Ultimate is also superior in comfort and intelligent configuration. There are two choices of seat materials: Nappa leather and suede. On the basis of 4:6 ratio of reclining/backrest angle adjustment/heating, the second row of seats is equipped with seat ventilation function, which further improves the driving comfort. The automatic anti-glare interior rearview mirror is upgraded to a streaming media rearview mirror, with a super wide-angle view to prevent the line of sight from being blocked. The pedal on the side of the electric car and UWB digital keys are standard, which makes it more convenient to use the car in the field.

In addition, Yunqi -P is an evolvable suspension system, and users of Yunqi’s flagship version can enjoy many functions such as intelligent welcome and camping leveling through OTA in the later period.

How to choose the pilot version and the flagship version of Yunqi?

Undoubtedly, the appearance of Leopard 5 makes up for the shortcomings of similar products in terms of high fuel consumption and weak comfort. At the same time, with the advantages of Yunqi -P standard intelligent hydraulic body control system, it also has a better performance in off-road capability, showing the hard-core strength of 300,000-class hybrid hard-core SUV in terms of safety, reliability, enjoyment of technology, exquisite personality and professionalism, which can be described as all-round strength.

So how to choose such a "city can be wild" model? Xiao Bian thinks: For friends who usually travel mainly in cities and occasionally drive by car in the suburbs, directly starting the Leopard 5 Pilot Edition will definitely meet your car needs. If you have higher standards and requirements for quality and comfort, you can also start with the top-of-the-line Yunqi Ultimate Edition. For those off-road novices and off-road old guns who are looking forward to having off-road fun but lack experience, the Leopard 5 Clouds Ultimate Edition is obviously more suitable.
