Recently, the new Landa FREE made its debut as a real car and will be launched on August 19th. Booking has now begun. In addition, the exhibition car arrived at the Lantu store on August 1st. The new car is positioned as a mid to large-sized SUV, and this facelift only offers additional models, with the pure electric version temporarily cancelled.
Firstly, changes in appearance and interior. The new Lando FREE features a new style of straight waterfall style front grille, and the front bumper has been redesigned with vertical lines. The left and right sides have been replaced with square air ducts. In addition, the exterior color has been added with a dark green color. The traditional gear shifting method in the car has been replaced by electronic gear shifting, and a mobile wireless fast charging panel has been added in the central area. A multifunctional control screen has been added at the rear air conditioning vents, making the cabin of the new model look more simple and technological.
Secondly, in terms of power, the new Landu FREE is equipped with a new 1.5T Range extender, with a maximum net power of 110kW, thermal efficiency of more than 42%, and a dual motor four-wheel drive system.
Finally, the changes in intelligent driving. The biggest highlight of the new Lantu FREE is its installation of Baidu Apollo intelligent driving assistance system. On the new Landau FREE model, it features navigation assistance and a human-machine co driving map, including full speed intelligent cruise control, automatic up and down ramps, and intelligent entry and exit service area assistance. Intelligent entry and exit service area assistance is the first in the industry. In this function, the vehicle system will make a comprehensive judgment based on the remaining mileage, battery, fuel level, and driver status, and can intelligently calculate whether the driver needs to enter the service area to rest and automatically enter. In addition to assisting driving, Baidu Apollo automatic parking, one click remote parking, memory parking, and remote calling functions are also available in terms of parking.
So, when the new Landau FREE is officially launched, it not only has a more rugged and dynamic appearance, but also an intelligent driving assistance system that will be even more outstanding.
On the side of the vehicle, the overall body posture is not significantly different from the current model, and the hidden door handle design is still used, which is conducive to reducing the vehicle's drag coefficient. At the same time, the new car has added a camera and "Apollo tech" logo at the front fender.
At the rear of the car, the new Landau FREE is equipped with smoked black through style taillights that are basically consistent with the current model, and the surrounding license plate has become a rectangular shape. It is worth mentioning that the new car equipped with Baidu Apollo intelligent driving assistance system will have the "Apollo tech" logo on the rear tailgate.
In terms of chassis, the new Landu FREE adopts a front double wishbone and rear five link all aluminum alloy suspension system, and is equipped with air suspension as standard. In terms of body size, the new car has a length, width, and height of 4905/1950/1645mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2960mm, which is consistent with the current model.
In terms of interior design, the new Landau FREE still adopts an integrated adjustable triple screen and intelligent dimmable panoramic sunroof. The car's system uses the Qualcomm 8155 chip, making its response smoother. At the same time, the intelligent voice system supports continuous recognition and visible and spoken functions.
In terms of power, the maximum power of the front and rear motors of the new car are 160 kW and 200 kW respectively. According to official reports, its pure electric range has greatly improved compared to the current model, with a comprehensive range of 1201 kilometers.
