The advantages and disadvantages of the Galaxy E5 4000km daily vehicle long-term test are obvious

More than a month after the launch of the Geely Galaxy E5, more than 12000 units were sold in August. Among the models of the same class, apart from the BYD PLUS and up, the Galaxy E5 should be one of the best-selling new energy models. The Galaxy E5 purchased by Tianya Jun has driven more than 4000 kilometers from picking up the car to now. Today, let's talk about the real experience of this car in the driving process of more than a month. Is it worth buying?

How about sailing?

For pure electric models, what people are most concerned about is, of course, the issue of battery life. We took a small test, in the air conditioning temperature of 22 degrees, wind speed 4, ride three adults, switch to energy-saving mode, and keep the average speed at 49km/h, the actual distance drove 106.8km, and the mileage showed driving 118km.

Rounded up, the success rate of cruise service also reached 90%, which can be said to be very excellent and completely exceeded expectations. Moreover, it has been measured before that when the mileage is only 20km, there is no power restriction and slow running, so for daily use, whether it is commuting to work or running high speed, there is no problem with this range, and it will not cause too much anxiety.

How does it go?

Galaxy E5 is positioned as a family car, so the overall training of this car is also completely biased towards home use.

This car can switch three driving modes through the central control screen, and the difference between different driving modes is also obvious. in the energy-saving mode, the delay time of the switch is relatively large, and the initial acceleration is relatively slow, and the acceleration process is still relatively linear in the middle and back, but the kinetic energy recovery in this mode will be greater, and the sudden frustration of the car will be relatively strong after the release of the switch. Therefore, if passengers get carsick, it is recommended to switch to the standard mode, in this mode, the car acceleration and braking effect will be very good, coupled with non-inductive braking function, basically will not appear the phenomenon of nodding when braking.

In sports mode, it is also a different driving experience, can obviously feel the push back feeling, 100 km acceleration score is 6.9s, so in daily driving, overtaking can be very easy.

Galaxy E5 uses CTB body battery integration technology, that is, the battery pack and chassis into one, coupled with 50:50 front and rear axle load ratio, which also gives the car relatively good handling stability, even when emergency lane change and cornering, the car's roll is not obvious.

Chassis training is also inclined to comfort, the advantage is that in the driving process, the shock can be filtered relatively clean, will not feedback to the car personnel too much vibration, but in the face of some throwing road, the suspension is somewhat inadequate, there is no way to hold the car body in the first place.

With regard to the performance of the Galaxy E5, first of all, this car is equipped with the Longying No. 1 on-board chip. although the computing power is not as good as the 8295 chip of the Galaxy E8, the fluency of the actual operation is still very good. At the same time issued four to five voice instructions, the car machine can basically be recognized.

The button above the center console is a configuration that I am satisfied with in the car. Not only can I adjust the volume by rotating the button, but I can also press the button for a long time to define other functions, such as the control of air conditioning temperature and air volume, switching desktop theme, atmosphere lamp mode and other functions, which can be said to achieve multiple uses of one button, greatly increasing the convenience of blind exercise in the driving process.

Galaxy E5 is equipped with the Flyme Auto car system jointly built with Meizu, but it only supports the interconnection between Meizu phones and mobile phones, while other brands of phones only support Bluetooth, Carplay and CarLife, and the market share of Meizu phones is not too large, so the limitation of car-machine interconnection is high, so it is impossible for most users to experience the complete car-machine interconnection function.

Although the car is positioned as a compact SUV, the space inside the car is much richer than it looks outside the car. Tianya Jun is tall 175cm, adjusts the front seat to the normal position, sits in the rear leg space with two punches and three fingers, and one punch and two fingers in the head space. This space performance is already an excellent result in the same level of models.

Not only the space is large, the seat is filled thick, the sense of wrapping is also in place, at the same time, the floor in the back row is still flat, thanks to this design, even if the back row is made of three adults, the legroom can also be used.

Galaxy E5 also has a trump card in the storage space, that is, under the trunk cover, there is also a large volume of storage space, because the bottom of this place is completely closed, so that even if it is filled with water directly, it will not spill out, which is another new world for consumers who like fishing.

Another controversial aspect of the Galaxy E5 is that the car has a charging port on the right front.

First of all, let's talk about the reason for this design. Galaxy E5 is the front drive, and the outlet of the battery pack is at the front, so the charging port is also designed in the front section, which will make the connection of the high-voltage wire more efficient, also because the high-voltage line no longer has to bypass the cabin. Further improve security.

But in the actual use process, it is really very inconvenient! If, in order to make it more convenient to drive out of the parking space, after reversing the car into the parking space, the line of the charging pile often has no way to reach the appropriate length, so the front of the car can only be faced with the charging pile, so that the blind area will be very large when backing out of the storage. it is difficult to observe the situation on both sides of the rear of the car, which increases the safety risks and the difficulty of operation.

Galaxy E5 is very suitable for the positioning of household scooters, especially the ride space and load space, which is better than the same class models. Tianya Jun purchased the 530km exploration + version, landed a little more than 140000, the practical configuration has been arranged, I think the most cost-effective, even if you are a two-child family, this car can fully meet the daily needs, if it is the family's first new energy car, it is worth a look.
