Before experiencing the Mavericks, I first made a simple self introduction. I am a fan of intelligent hardware, once a major in automotive engineering technology, and I know something about intelligent hardware and some aspects of automobile power. Although my job is quite different from these two aspects, I usually pay attention to this information because of my love for intelligent hardware and automobiles.
Now, although the society is developing at a high speed, it is also accompanied by various social problems, air pollution and traffic congestion during the rush hour every day. Although the government has vigorously promoted various green travel, subways, and bus sidings, it still cannot solve the traffic problems of a large number of people. The electric vehicle, which was once not a promising means of transportation, has been widely accepted by Chinese people because of China's special national conditions. However, at present, the electric vehicles on the market are mainly lead-acid batteries, with potential safety hazards and service life greatly reduced. Since the launch of Tesla, people have re recognized the powerful functions of lithium batteries. At this time, Tesla Mavericks in electric vehicles also began to participate in JD crowdfunding.
The process of waiting for the Mavericks can be described as ups and downs. It took more than two months for the car to display the delivery on the Internet. However, many netizens on Zhongdian began to question that it might be another crowdfunding ticket jumping event, and this product with the largest amount, the largest sales volume, the fastest crowdfunding, and the three champions in the history of JD crowdfunding at that time really became the most concerned topic of users. However, the goods were finally delivered.
After Xiaoniu showed the delivery, it took several days before he received a call from the delivery master, saying that the cart could not enter the city, and the delivery could not be carried out until the road ban was lifted at night. So the delivery was arranged at the roadside in the evening. At that time, many people who walked in the evening were attracted to watch. Many people said that the car was very good and asked where they bought it. At that time, several security guards at the gate came out to watch the people who rode directly home.
The inside is covered with a solid wooden frame, and I began to worry about whether the car would be scratched, but it was completely redundant, and it was fixed very firmly. Several important places were protected with blue tape. Except the rearview mirror, which needs to be installed by myself, the rest is assembled.
Another thing worth praising is the delivery master of Jingdong, who also loaded and took away all the packaging materials removed.
Maverick Electric also provided a hat and T-shirt, but at that time, they thought they were too small, and the clothes were not big enough, so they had to leave them for their son (wait for more than 10 years). In addition to the rear-view mirror, the calf found that the windshield cover of the instrument panel also needs to be installed by itself, because these places are easy to break, but the intimate thing is that the calf also has a small wrench and screwdriver that need to be used. The charger is also different from the traditional battery car, which uses the charger with aluminum alloy shell.
In fact, the appearance of the calf has a British style. I remember in the Indian film My God, there is a motorcycle ride by aliens, which is very similar to the calf. In fact, I don't think it's much different from ordinary electric cars in the picture. But when I really ride on the street, I will turn around and ask where I bought this car. In addition, Xiaoniu is actually not small. It is one size larger than the electric cars in the stores, and is equivalent to the original two-stroke scooters.
The light of Mavericks is really commendable, with the full LED lighting system and the angel eye daytime light. At present, many cars can't compare with each other in the automotive field. Even Benz and BMW, which are tall and tall, don't use LED light source in the low beam light and high beam light, and that circle of light really gives people a sense of flexibility.
The rear tail light is also excellent, like a calf horn.
The storage space of the Mavericks is also designed to be relatively user-friendly. In addition to a storage box that can hold mobile phones in the front, a hook is also designed (though it may be better if it can be designed as a metal hook), and a USB charging port is also designed. Of course, the storage space under the seat is larger and can fully put down a helmet.
Hydraulic front disc brake, hydraulic rear disc brake+EBS brake, with energy recovery system. This is the difference between disc brake and drum brake. If you have used a traditional battery car and had a comparison, the advantages will be very obvious. However, the 120-70-12 vacuum tire used has very good performance even at the beginning. However, after a period of cycling, especially on smooth ground and cement ground in rainy days, when driving around a corner, you can still feel the sideslip phenomenon. Therefore, it is recommended to drive slowly in rainy days and not drive too fast.
The brake oil of Xiaoniu can be clearly seen through the sight hole on the handlebar. This design is convenient for safety inspection.
In fact, the best performance of the Mavericks is also in the German Bosch 1200W motor, which provides a maximum torque of 110N · m and can reach a maximum climbing angle of 12 °. In fact, as an ordinary user, it may not be very intuitive for this set of click parameters. It feels like the slope of an underground garage or the slope of a highway. With a personal weight of 74KG and a son of 25kg, it is very easy to get up from the garage. The biggest feature is that the noise is very low, which should be quiet. If you can most feel Tesla's feeling, it is here, the feeling of silence when riding.
The endurance problem of the Mavericks may be a concern of all. The official said that the power version of the 26AH lithium battery battery can last 100 kilometers, and the urban version of the 20AH lithium battery battery can last 80 kilometers. However, it is conceivable that this data is the same as the fuel consumption of the car. It is all data in the experimental state. Many people said that the official of the Mavericks battery is suspected of "fraud", but as individuals, they can fully understand it. My pilot city version, after this 100 day test, has a speed of 30kM/h in gear 2 and a range of 50km, which is still a little different from the ideal state. However, I also consulted the local offline service station of Xiaoniu, saying that there might be a problem of disc grinding, because the station is far away, so I can't spare time to deal with it.
The so-called smart part of Xiaoniu Electric is that it has a supporting mobile app. Through the app, we can locate the location of the car, monitor the health of the car online, and quickly access the Xiaoniu Forum on the app. However, this may be far from being "smart". The most intelligent part is that if the car is moved after locking, it will actively prompt on the APP and record the car's movement track. However, this kind of networking is free for the first year, and a service fee of 99 yuan will be charged for the second year. Of course, if you can change your SIM card, can you choose the package freely?
However, after 100 days of experience, it was found that there were also some bugs on the Xiaoniu APP. For example, the car can only display the driving route after starting, which means that the signal may not be good when the car first started. There is also the driving mileage record on August and Sunday. It is found that there is a problem with the total mileage, and by comparing the actual riding distance with the APP measurement for many times, it should be that the average speed is normal, but in terms of power consumption, it is based on the 80km range in the ideal state, while the actual mileage can only be 50km, so the total mileage will increase on the app. It is hoped that this calculation method can be changed after the app is upgraded in the future.
Some more beautiful pictures.
Of course, we also need to mention the after-sales service of the Mavericks. At present, the official battery maintenance activities in winter, as well as the anti-theft upgrade of the battery compartment before, the official call will remind the Mavericks. However, it is worth mentioning that the service points in Ningbo are still relatively far away. It really takes a long time to go there, so these services still haven't been experienced. In addition, the official calls are quite blunt. For example, when calling to remind the battery maintenance staff about the battery, they all said that they just came to notify the activity. They didn't know much about the products, and they always asked me to go to offline stores to consult. However, offline stores are really a little far away.
Summary after experience:
From the beginning of marketing to the current second batch of sales, the impressive achievements of Xiaoniu Electric are indeed obvious to all. However, there are still some flaws, such as the most intelligent GPS positioning is inaccurate, the battery compartment network known as the "safe" is opened every second, and the anti-skid tires skid in rainy days after experiencing, etc. Another point is that there are differences in laws and regulations across China, and the Maverick N1 is currently unable to be licensed in many regions, which also brings troubles to many Maverick users. But it can't be blamed on the calf, it can only be blamed. You were born in this place, and you can expect to ride on the street openly and honestly one day.
As a "novice" in the electric vehicle industry, it is commendable that Xiaoniu can achieve such a degree. Compared with the current domestic traditional electric vehicle manufacturers, Xiaoniu N1 is already a work of conscience. Of course, we hope that Xiaoniu will produce more refined and superior new products in the future, perhaps a genuine Chinese "Tesla" car. In this Internet era, Nothing seems impossible.
