Hiphi X vs Model X: A Comparison of Two Amazing Electric Vehicles
Electric vehicles are the future of the automobile industry, and two of the most innovative cars in this category are the Hiphi X and Model X. These vehicles represent the best of modern engineering and design, with impressive technology and features that make them stand out from the crowd. But how do they compare to one another? Let's take a look.

1-The front face designs of both cars have a strong family color. The front face of the HiPhi X presents an X-shaped design language and incorporates the increasingly popular through-type daytime running lights; the Model X has a variant car logo design style. There is no difference in design. It can only be said that the HiPhi X is more trendy. After all, the Model X has been on the market for a long time.
2-The headlights all use mainstream LED headlights, and the design of the headlights is also consistent with the style of the whole vehicle; I believe that everyone has seen the "light dance" of Model X on the Internet, and the PML programmable smart headlights of HiPhi X make the "light show" even cooler.


3-The driving assistance functions of both cars are very comprehensive. The Model X has a total of 8 cameras, 12 ultrasonic radars and 1 front radar. Its automatic driving assistance system relies more on camera data and has a chip with stronger computing power. The HiPhi X also has many cameras around its body, but its driving assistance system relies more on sensor data. It is supported by 2 monocular cameras, 5 millimeter-wave radars and 12 ultrasonic radars, and has six major redundant designs.
4-After mass production, the exterior mirrors of HiPhi X also return to the traditional ones. The exterior mirrors of the two cars are also quite comprehensive, with Model X slightly ahead with an automatic anti-glare function. In addition, Model X also comes standard with panoramic images, but the side cameras are moved to the B-pillars.


5-The HiPhi X no longer has door handles, and the touch button on the B-pillar is the door switch. It also supports facial recognition and Bluetooth key unlocking. Although the Model X looks a bit traditional again, the front electric suction doors are still quite attractive.
6-Both cars at the auto show are equipped with 22-inch wheels, but the 22-inch wheels of the Model X are optional, while those of the HiPhi X are standard. The shapes of the multi-spoke wheels are different. In addition, the front and rear tires of the HiPhi X are both 255/45 R22, while the front tires of the Model X are 265/35 R22 and the rear tires are 285/35 R22.


7-The opening methods of the rear doors of both cars are cool enough. The gull-wing doors of Model X have attracted consumers' attention since their debut. HiPhi X goes a step further and has a double-opening style, with the doors facing outwards and the roof facing upwards.
8-Although both are SUVs, neither car is equipped with a rear wiper that would break the integrity of the rear. HiPhi X forms a low-pressure area at the rear window by extending the roof backwards, and there is also a small rear wing at the rear to enhance the sporty feel. Speaking of the rear wing, we have to show the rear wing of Model X. Now the rear wing of Model X has been "fixed" in the open position and no longer opens and closes automatically.


9-The rear designs of both cars echo the front, with the HiPhi X having rich layers and the Model X being fuller. The HiPhi X also uses intelligent interactive taillights, which have the same functions as the headlights, and also has a more sporty rear surround design.
10-Although the HiPhi X is only 66mm lower than the Model X, the unique upper and lower proportions of the body and the 65° tilt of the front windshield make the HiPhi X look flatter and wider. In comparison, the Coupe SUV shape of the Model X suddenly becomes a bit traditional.

11-Both HiPhi X and Model X use front double wishbone and rear multi-link independent suspension, and both cars can adjust the hardness of the suspension. In addition, with the help of the rear-wheel active steering system, the minimum turning diameter of HiPhi X with a wheelbase of more than 3000mm is only 11.6m.
12-I believe you are all familiar with the simple interior design of Model X. As for the central control screen, it can be said that Tesla has led the trend of large screens. However, with the development of electric vehicles, the co-pilot multimedia screen has also become a new trend. HiPhi X is equipped with three screens in the car: LCD instrument, central control screen and co-pilot screen, forming a multi-screen integrated cockpit.


13-The difference between a four-spoke and a three-spoke steering wheel is not discussed here. The steering wheels of both cars are wrapped in leather and feel very good. In comparison, the steering wheel of the HiPhi X is slightly thicker and feels fuller to hold. At the same time, the multi-function buttons on the steering wheel are replaced by a touchpad, which looks neater and has a sense of technology.
14-The size of the HiPhi X's LCD instrument is 14.6 inches, while Tesla has not announced the size of the LCD instrument. The screens of the two vehicles' instruments are very delicate and there is nothing to complain about. It should be noted that the HiPhi X's instrument UI is not the final version, and there may be new designs or adjustments in the future.


15-The size of the central control screen of HiPhi X is 16.9 inches, and that of Model X is 17 inches. Both cars' central control screens support multi-touch, and the car computers are very sensitive to touch, which can be said to be equally good.
16-Both cars use a lot of leather to cover the dashboard. The difference is that the Model X incorporates wood trim, while the HiPhi X uses the screen. The texture of the black paint trim around the screen is also good.


17-When all seats in the car are in use, the 5-seater Model X naturally has a larger luggage compartment. If compared with the 6-seater Model X, the HiPhi X should have a comparable loading capacity. The luggage compartments of both cars are also very regular, and both have front luggage compartments available for use.
18-If we put aside the biggest problem of HiPhi X, I believe it is better than Model X in terms of design and configuration. We must also acknowledge the leading role played by Tesla in the development of electric vehicles. As a newcomer, HiPhi X has indeed made improvements on many existing foundations, which is its advantage. Let's talk about the biggest problem of HiPhi X. I believe you all know it without me saying it, which is product awareness and reputation. This is a problem that every new brand has to face, and it is also a problem that HiPhi Automobile needs to solve as soon as possible. After all, even if the price is lower than Model X.

In conclusion, both the Hiphi X and Model X are amazing electric vehicles that offer impressive performance, technology, and style. While the Model X has the brand recognition and advanced Autopilot system, the Hiphi X offers a more affordable price point and impressive range. Ultimately, it will come down to the individual buyer to decide which vehicle is right for them. But one thing is for sure, the future of electric vehicles is looking brighter than ever with these two game-changers leading the charge.
