ONVO CEO Tiecheng did a live broadcast in Turpan, summarizing the content of the live session:
- Sun Protection Focus: The broadcast began with an emphasis on sun protection in the car, so I noted ONVO L60’s sun protection capabilities in Turpan.
Two ONVO L60 cars were exposed to the sun for two hours, with ground temperatures around 66-70 degrees Celsius. After two hours, the door handle temperature reached 72.9 degrees Celsius, and the interior temperature was about 61.2 degrees Celsius.
At 14:05, the air conditioning was turned on, and by 14:09, the thermometer showed the temperature had dropped to 37.8 degrees Celsius. Within ten minutes, the temperature in the nose area inside the car dropped to 34.8 degrees Celsius.
To improve sun protection, ONVO L60 has made optimizations in the following areas:
- Low-emissivity glass canopy blocks 99.99% of UV rays.
- Full-body cooling curtain quickly dissipates body heat, using hidden air outlets that can sweep a large area from top to bottom.
- Rear air vents are designed at the B-pillar, forming a cooling curtain and providing seat ventilation.
- A highly efficient 900V silicon carbide compressor also contributes to cooling.
Finally, they showcased the smoothness of ONVO L60’s large screen; the car’s infotainment screen remained functional even though an iPhone inside had become unusable due to the heat.
- Manual Sunshade Ready: The ONVO L60 also comes with a two-stage manual sunshade for those who don’t like the panoramic glass roof.
- ONVO Tiecheng’s Hobbies: Tiecheng loves sports, including badminton, tennis, and played football in college. He used sports as an analogy for the summer test, stating that extreme heat is a big challenge for both vehicles and athletes.
- Gift Packs Mentioned: When talking about gift packs, there was a humorous reference to Li Bin using his wife’s money for giveaways. Tiecheng clarified that he manages his own money.
- Luggage Capacity: The ONVO L60 can fit nine 20-inch suitcases even when fully occupied by five people.
- Test Car Details: The test car was equipped with purple seat belts.
- Legroom: The knee space is 210mm. Thanks to the 900V architecture, the component system is more compact, with the rear drive motor being about 20% smaller than that of the Model Y.
- Low Energy Consumption: Factors contributing to low energy consumption include aerodynamic Cd=0.229, higher efficiency of the 900V platform, and a highly integrated digital architecture that enhances wiring and energy management.
- Intelligent Comfort Braking: The ONVO L60 also features intelligent comfort braking capabilities.
- Tire Details: The 20-inch tires have sound-absorbing foam, and the low rolling resistance tires have a braking distance of 35.8 meters.
Q&A Section:
- When will the ONVO L60 be available for test drives and delivery?
- A: The plan is to deliver by the end of September, as mentioned at the launch event in May. A specific price and product announcement will be made in late September, with test drives available on the same day and deliveries within a week.
- ONVO Tiecheng’s comment on the interior:
- “The interior will be a surprise. If you like the exterior of the L60, you’ll love the interior even more. Today isn’t the best day to showcase the interior, but I promise to give everyone a proper introduction within a month.”
