From the appearance, it can be found that the front face of this ET7 is very similar to NIO's family design language. Basically, there isn't a big difference just because it's a sedan and not an SUV. They both have split headlamps. The side lines of the body are very sleek and imposing. The body is large and wide, and it also uses hidden door handles combined with the design of power-closing doors, which is very high-end. However, there is one thing I'm not quite satisfied with, that is, the gap between the window at the C-pillar and the door panel is a bit wide.
The rear of the car adopts a rounded design similar to that of Porsche, combined with the through-type taillights, which looks very dynamic. When comparing it with the 5 Series, E-Class, and A6L, it won't be outshined at all. It's also a very imposing presence. The real drawback is the three "horns" on the top of the front of the car. Inside them are sensors, lidar, and cameras. It doesn't look very harmonious. However, there are also benefits. It's a bit safer to place them up there than in front of the car. If there's a slight collision at the front, repairs will be needed. The cost of repairing the lidar is very high. So, even if it sacrifices some aesthetics, it can improve the car's practicality to a certain extent. Moreover, if the cameras are placed up there,
its viewing angle (range) and the accuracy of distance measurement are a bit better than Tesla's. After turning on the ACC inside the car, you'll find that the viewing angle it covers is twice as large as Tesla's. When you get into the NIO ET7, compared with its exterior, its interior attracts me more. If the exterior is good-looking, then its interior can be considered amazing. It uses a three-tone design, a combination of gray, white, and wood grain panels, which really looks high-end.
Even if it can't match the feeling of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, at least there isn't much difference between it and the 5 Series or the Audi A6L, and it's even a bit better. The use of materials is very delicate. The wood grain panel is really the icing on the cake. It feels a bit like the bark of a birch tree. The center console screen doesn't follow Tesla's example of making a 16:9 rectangular screen. Instead, it has a more distinctive 4:3 ratio. And its UI interface and usage logic are different from Tesla's models.
It doesn't blindly imitate Tesla. The configuration is also very high. For example, all four seats have ventilation and heating functions, and all four seats are equipped with seat massage functions. Sitting here is really a great enjoyment, especially when you turn on the seat massage. Its cabin is really high-class and worthy of its positioning at 500,000 yuan. But does it have no flaws?
There are still some. That is the light-colored design. Although it gives you an amazing feeling, it gets dirty easily. For example, this car has traveled less than 4,000 kilometers, and the steering wheel already looks a bit dusty. As for the seats, if you like to wear jeans, it's easy to leave blue marks on them. In terms of space, the wheelbase directly exceeds 3 meters. There's no need to mention the legroom. It's very long and spacious. The seat cushions are also very soft, and the configuration is high. The drawback is that the seating position is a bit high. The high seating position makes the window waistline low, reducing the sense of privacy.
