The new energy vehicle market is in full swing, and major automakers have launched new products to compete for market share. Recently, a car purchase invoice for Changan Mazda EZ-6 has attracted widespread attention on the Internet. According to this invoice, the purchased model is an EZ-6 pure electric BEV model, priced at 221,800 yuan. This not only makes car enthusiasts and potential buyers heated, but also allows industry insiders to conduct in-depth analysis of its authenticity. Many people believe that the EZ-6, as Changan Mazda’s first new energy product and the only model in the joint venture B-class sedan market to provide extended range power, is mostly true, and the comer is not good.
First of all, let’s verify the authenticity of this invoice. According to the pictures released, the invoice date of this car purchase invoice is August 16, which is more than a month earlier than the pre-sale time. Generally speaking, when a new car is launched, the car company has a complete time advancement process. For a joint venture car company like Changan Mazda, it is not surprising that China and Japan need to make joint decisions and agree on the price 2 months in advance. In addition, although sensitive information such as invoice codes are coded, from the information of the invoicing party and the invoice seal of Changan Mazda Automobile Co., Ltd., this invoice is not fake. It is likely that it came out internally, and the invoice itself is very reliable. Since the invoice is likely to be genuine, the product price shown in the invoice is also very likely to represent the true price of the EZ-6.
Since its debut at the Beijing Auto Show in 2024, the EZ-6 has quickly become the hottest sedan in the field of joint venture new energy. Its styling design has stepped on the tide of the current new energy vehicle market. The combination of its dynamic curved surface and tough lines makes it as good as any other model in the same class in terms of visual impact. What attracts more attention directly is the innovation of EZ-6 in power selection. As the only model in the joint venture B-class sedan market to provide extended range power, the EZ-6 makes up for the gap in the field of extended range of joint venture new energy, which not only makes the car more competitive in the market, but also lays a high strategic position for Changan Mazda in the field of new energy.
In terms of product introduction, the Changan Mazda EZ-6 has shown its advantages without hesitation. In terms of body size, the length, width and height are 4921/1890/1485mm, the wheelbase is 2895mm, and it is equipped with frameless doors and hatchback design, highlighting its modern and technological sense. Although the shape is more modern, the EZ-6 still retains the classic design elements of the Mazda brand, such as through-the taillights and round gun downlights on both sides. From this point of view, the car not only has a breakthrough in battery life and power, but also seamlessly integrates in appearance design.
In terms of power, the EZ-6 is available in two forms, pure electric and extended range, both with rear-drive layout. The power parameters of the pure electric version are 190kW, while the extended range version is equipped with the same 1.5-liter range extender, and the power parameters are exactly the same. According to the battery pack capacity, the range of the pure electric model is 480km and 600km respectively. The extended range vehicle can achieve a long range of more than 1300km on a single charge and a tank of fuel. Whether it is a city commute or a long-distance trip, this range performance is very competitive.
In terms of intelligent configuration, the EZ-6 is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon’s third-generation 8155 chip, equipped with a 14.6-inch floating central control screen and a full LCD instrument panel. What’s more exciting is the high-tech configuration such as AR-HUD head-up display, 360-degree panoramic image, and 180-degree panoramic chassis, which makes it more convenient and intelligent to operate. In terms of safety assistance, the EZ-6 provides functions such as adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assistance, and automatic parking. Sony audio, 64-color ambient lights, and zero-gravity seats, which are rarely seen in the same class, are also in the configuration list, fully demonstrating the car’s unremitting pursuit of luxury.
From the comprehensive price point of view, the price positioning of the EZ-6 is very competitive. From the perspective of configuration and technical level alone, the EZ-6 exceeds the new energy models of the same level in the current market in many aspects. For example, the price of Tesla Model 3 and BMW i3 is around 300,000 yuan, while the starting price of Volkswagen ID7 has reached 227,700 yuan. The EZ-6 pure electric version is only sold for 221,800 yuan, which undoubtedly makes people feel very reasonable, and can even be said to be very cost-effective.
To sum up, although Changan Mazda EZ-6 has just been exposed, its extremely high configuration and reasonable pricing strategy have made the market full of expectations for it. According to Mazda’s previous pricing strategy, it is expected that its price range will fall between 18-240,000. If some preferential policies are introduced during the pre-sale period, the pressure on the joint venture new energy models on the market will be very great. It is reported that the EZ-6 will start pre-sale on September 28 and will be officially launched at the end of October. All the answers will be revealed soon, so stay tuned.
