In terms of driving experience, the Avita 11 has brought me a very pleasant experience. Firstly, in terms of power, this car has very strong power, and you can feel the push-back sensation during acceleration. Moreover, the power output is smooth and linear.

In addition to the mentioned performance, handling, intelligence, and comfort, there are some other highlights of the Avita 11 that I experienced during the test drive. For example, the braking performance of this car is excellent, with a good feedback from the brake pedal. The braking force can be automatically adjusted according to the depth of the pedal, resulting in a short braking distance and no obvious jittering during braking. Furthermore, the aerodynamic design of this car is also excellent, with smooth body lines, low drag coefficient, and an adjustable spoiler that can improve stability and efficiency based on the vehicle’s speed.

It is also equipped with up to 12 safety airbags and various active and passive safety systems, such as ABS, EBD, ESP, TCS, LDW, FCW, AEB, etc., to better protect the occupants’ safety.

Avita 11

Overall, the Avita 11 is a pure electric SUV that emphasizes luxury and technological feel. It has impressive performance in terms of appearance, interior, configuration, power, and driving experience. Compared to competitors such as the Model Y and NIO ES6, the Avita 11 has a more minimalist and futuristic design style, a more powerful and efficient intelligent system, and a more rich and user-friendly emotional interaction function. However, with a starting price of 300,000 yuan in the current domestic new energy vehicle market, it is still a relatively expensive option. The Avita 11 needs to find its own unique selling points in order to further increase its sales.
