Data from the National Bureau of Statistics shows that from January to February, 3.855 million vehicles were produced in China, an 89.9% increase, including 317.000 new energy vehicles (NEVs), a 395.3% rise. After weathering the pandemic, the domestic NEV market is poised for a new growth cycle. As an innovator in China’s NEV market and the top-selling new energy SUV in 2020. Ideal ONE delivered 2.300 units this February, a 755% increase compared to February 2020. Ideal Auto’s production capabilities have garnered significant industry attention. In the highly competitive NEV market, why has Ideal ONE managed to achieve such rapid growth? A key reason is that Ideal Auto understands what consumers truly want.
What Kind of Car Do We Really Need?
“With two kids and elderly parents at home, I need a car that’s easy to drive, comfortable, and spacious. It would be even better if it looks stylish.”
“I want my car to accompany me on road trips, with performance that rivals gasoline cars, easy refueling, and no range anxiety.”
“I’m looking to spend around 300.000 RMB on a high-quality car that’s economical for daily commuting and can carry more people and luggage on weekend outings.”
“I’m interested in NEVs, but beyond features and safety, service is crucial. I don’t want the hassle of car maintenance.”
For modern people, a car is more than just a means of transportation; it’s an extension of living space—a second personal space outside the home, and a vital part of family life. The ideal car should be like a mobile home: safe and comfortable to drive, economical and eco-friendly to maintain.
Ideal ONE: Designed for Modern Needs
Ideal ONE features an intelligent power generation system—electric for city driving and gasoline for long trips. With three energy replenishment methods—slow charging, fast charging, and refueling—users no longer have to worry about unreliable charging stations or range anxiety. A car owner from Wuhan said, “Since my hometown is in Northeast China, I need a car for long drives home. With over 2.000 kilometers to cover, range is a big concern, so a pure electric car isn’t an option for me. The Ideal ONE, which uses both electricity and gasoline, is much more practical.”
The Ideal ONE offers spacious 6/7-seat configurations, with ISOFIX safety seat interfaces in both the second and third rows, making it suitable for families with one or two children. Even with the third row in use, the trunk can still accommodate both 26- and 24-inch suitcases. It’s perfect for daily needs like gym bags, tents, folding chairs, and strollers, and you won’t have to worry about luggage space on long trips.
As a luxury mid-to-large SUV, the Ideal ONE provides a smooth and seamless all-electric driving experience. With 360-degree panoramic imaging and a wheel mode feature, parking is a breeze. The vehicle also boasts a user-friendly four-screen interaction system, similar to a smartphone, with a card-based design for simple touch controls. The voice assistant “Ideal Companion” can accurately recognize independent commands from the driver, front passenger, and both left and right sides of the second row. The Ideal ONE is equipped with a PM2.5 filtration system and supports a one-click purification mode, constantly monitoring and improving the air quality inside the vehicle for better protection of the driver and passengers.
Convenient Driving and Worry-Free Maintenance
Driving the Ideal ONE is not only convenient but also worry-free in terms of maintenance. If you mainly use gasoline, the maintenance costs are lower than those of traditional fuel vehicles; if you primarily use electricity, the costs are even lower than those of pure electric vehicles. All maintenance items are transparently priced (basic maintenance costs just 599 RMB, including oil, oil filter, air filter, and labor). Starting in March, to reduce the hassle of separately replacing the range extender’s air filter, Ideal Auto began including an air filter replacement with the oil and oil filter maintenance service. Future maintenance for owners will also include this addition (subject to official announcements from Ideal Auto).
Ideal Auto’s after-sales service operates on a direct sales model, avoiding the pitfalls of traditional 4S dealership service centers—no price markups, no unnecessary upselling, and no hidden charges. The maintenance time and cost of the Ideal ONE are closely tied to the usage of the range extender, and the vehicle will intelligently track usage to determine the next maintenance interval.
Owners can enjoy door-to-door pick-up and drop-off services in all cities with Ideal Auto service centers. Maintenance appointments can be made with just one click, eliminating the need to visit in person, saving time and effort (limited to Ideal PLUS premium services).
If a vehicle fault occurs due to quality issues, all parts replacements and repairs are free of charge, so you won’t have to worry about high repair costs. There’s also no need to worry about battery degradation—Ideal Auto offers a lifetime warranty for the first owner for just 4.999 RMB. Additionally, online owner advisors provide 1-on-1 dedicated service, available 24/7 to respond to user needs and quickly resolve issues. Ideal Auto remains committed to its brand mission of “creating a mobile home, creating a happy home,” providing users with a professional and efficient after-sales service experience.
