New breakthrough in the joint venture new energy market, the price of EZ-6 is really only 221,800 yuan？

The new energy vehicle market is in full swing, and automakers are scrambling to launch new models to seize market share. Recently, a Changan Mazda EZ-6 purchase invoice was exposed on the Internet, showing that the model was priced at 221,800 yuan. This information has attracted widespread attention and heated discussion. As Changan Mazda’s first new energy product, the EZ-6 not only fills the gap in the joint venture B-class car market for extended range models, but also demonstrates strong market competitiveness.

According to the exposed car purchase invoice, the invoice date is August 16, more than a month earlier than the official pre-sale time. This is particularly critical because for a joint venture car company like Changan Mazda, it is not simple to formulate and announce such a price in advance, and it requires joint decision-making by shareholders of both parties. Furthermore, the invoice information on the invoice and the invoice seal of Changan Mazda Automobile Co., Ltd. are very clear, and sensitive information such as the invoice code has been coded. Overall, the authenticity of this invoice is high. It is inferred that the price of 221,800 yuan marked on the invoice is very likely to be true.

In fact, since the EZ-6 made its debut at the 2024 Beijing Auto Show, it has quickly become the focus of attention in the field of joint venture new energy. On the one hand, the EZ-6 stands at the forefront of the joint venture new energy field in terms of shape design, with frameless doors and hatchback design giving it a very modern appearance. On the other hand, it fills the market gap as the only option to provide extended range power in the joint venture B-class sedan market. Such "pioneering" has undoubtedly attracted a lot of attention for it.

From the perspective of the model configuration, the performance of the EZ-6 can be described as eye-catching. In terms of body size, the length, width and height are 4921/1890/1485mm respectively, and the wheelbase reaches 2895mm. The frameless door and hatchback design strengthen its modern sense, while the through taillights and round gun downlights on both sides make people feel the retro charm of Mazda’s classic design elements.

In terms of power system, the EZ-6 is available in both pure electric and extended range forms, both of which adopt a rear-drive layout. The power parameters of the pure electric version are 190kW; the extended range version is also a 1.5-liter range extender with the same power parameters. In terms of battery life, the pure electric model provides 480km and 600km mileage options according to the battery pack capacity. The extended range vehicle is charged at one time, and the comprehensive battery life of a tank of oil exceeds 1300km. Whether it is the pure electric version or the extended range version, it is enough to meet the daily travel needs of consumers.

The interior and intelligent configuration are another highlight of the EZ-6. Qualcomm Snapdragon’s third-generation 8155 chip is used as the core processor, and it is equipped with 14.6-inch floating central control screen, full LCD instrument panel, AR-HUD head-up display, 360-degree panoramic image and adaptive cruise control to make the driving experience more convenient and intelligent. In addition, there are high-end configurations such as Sony audio, 64-color ambient lights, and zero-gravity seats, which further enhance the comfort and advanced feeling in the car.

In terms of price, from the perspective of configuration and product strength alone, the EZ-6 has a strong competitiveness among similar models. As a joint venture pure electric intermediate car, compared with the Tesla Model 3, BMW i3, and Volkswagen ID.7 priced at about 300,000 yuan, the EZ-6’s price of 221,800 yuan is very reasonable, and even quite competitive. Further reference to Mazda’s previous pricing strategy, the price of the EZ-6 is expected to fluctuate between 18-240,000 yuan. If some preferential policies can be brought during the pre-sale period, it will undoubtedly bring a lot of pressure to the joint venture new energy models on the market.

According to the latest news, the EZ-6 will start pre-sale on September 28 and will be officially launched at the end of October. At that time, all the answers will be revealed about how this high-profile new energy model will react to the market. What do you think of this Changan Mazda EZ-6?
