The “Eurasian Tour with AITO” convoy, featuring the AITO 9, AITO 7, and AITO 5 models, has successfully traversed approximately 15,000 kilometers across 12 countries over 38 days, culminating in its arrival in Paris for the 90th Paris Motor Show.
On October 14th, under the theme “Intelligence Redefining Luxury,” AITO presented its state-of-the-art product lineup and technological innovations to an international audience. A standout highlight was the AITO 9, a key participant in the convoy, which showcased its impressive performance during the challenging journey from Chongqing to Paris, demonstrating AITO’s capability to handle complex road conditions and extreme environments.
One of the most significant challenges during the “Eurasian Tour” was ensuring a reliable power supply, particularly in areas with limited charging infrastructure. However, AITO’s advanced Range-extender technology effectively addressed these limitations, providing the driving experience of a fully electric vehicle while alleviating range anxiety and enabling an extensive driving range. Enhanced safety was ensured through comprehensive features, including a robust body structure, five-layer battery insulation, and 20 active safety functions, which contributed to a secure on-road experience throughout the expedition.
AITO’s intelligent driving assistance technology was vital in alleviating driver fatigue during long-distance travel, successfully managing 8,800 km of the total journey. Additionally, the intelligent parking system demonstrated exceptional versatility, featuring multiple modes that easily navigated narrow parking spaces. The remote parking assistance feature allowed drivers to select a parking spot while the vehicle autonomously completed the process, consistently attracting attention from local residents along the route.
The remarkable performance of AITO’s vehicles is underpinned by the innovative AITO MF Platform, which boasts four core characteristics: Intelligent Safety, Diverse Powertrain, Adaptable Cabin Space, and Leading Intelligence. This platform supports a variety of power options, including Super Range-extended Electric, Battery Electric, and Ultra Hybrid, making it unique in the industry by accommodating all three new energy power systems. It delivers a driving experience that is “enjoyable, convenient, and secure” for consumers.
With the backing of the AITO MF Platform, the Super Range-extender technology achieves a thermal efficiency of 45% and a fuel-to-electric conversion rate of 3.65 kWh/L. This technology seamlessly adapts to various driving scenarios, providing electric power for city driving while allowing for quick refueling during inter-city trips. Delivering “the same performance with half the fuel consumption,” it offers power equivalent to a traditional 3.0T internal combustion engine. The driving experience mirrors that of a pure electric vehicle, characterized by a quiet cabin, smooth acceleration, and responsive handling. Additionally, it can function as an external power source for outdoor camping and tailors power generation to suit user driving habits, optimizing noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) for a refined and economical journey.
The high quality of AITO vehicles is a result of advanced intelligent manufacturing techniques. AITO has established a proprietary digital platform that integrates production equipment with data analytics. Utilizing over 3,000 robots and achieving 100% automation in critical processes, the Super Factory sets a benchmark for production efficiency, supporting flexible, transparent, automated, interconnected, and intelligent manufacturing. AITO has also pioneered the use of a 10,000-ton die-casting unit, enhancing production efficiency, weight reduction, and safety, ultimately improving product quality and productivity.
As a premium intelligent electric vehicle brand from China, AITO is at the forefront of intelligent new energy vehicles, redefining luxury through a blend of “Traditional Luxury and Technological Luxury” to offer consumers worldwide a leading-edge intelligent mobility experience.
