Because of their rugged appearance and excellent ability, the mention of them often gives people a sense of freedom. Because of this, these models often become the ideal means of transportation for everyone to pursue poetry and far away.
But when some of my friends who were ready to wander the world bought a hardcore off-road. However, it is found that the reality is often much more cruel than the ideal, and the cruelty is not that the off-road capabilities of these models are not enough, but their fuel consumption is simply exaggerated, and the cost of driving a hard-core off-road trip is comparable to traveling in a ride-hailing car. At this time, friends will carefully think about whether their wallets can last to the destination. For most friends, although they bought hardcore off-road, but most of the time they are in the city, there is no time and energy to release its off-road potential, when friends gradually calm down, everyone realizes that although they like hard-core off-road, but prefer fuel-efficient hard-school off-road, so that in the search for poetry and far away on the road, will not be because of the rapid burning fuel costs lead to their own halfway waste. Auto companies are obviously aware of these problems, so there are the following models to be introduced.
Jeep Wrangler New Energy
(54.49~624,900 yuan)
As a representative model of hardcore off-road, Wrangler's position in the hearts of off-road enthusiasts has always been very sacred, this hardcore off-road model with strong off-road ability and great modification potential has almost no weakness.
Because it can do the work of rainforest crossing, it can also do the work of extreme rock climbing, and although long-distance desert crossing is not its strength, it can also do this work after appropriate modification. But this hexagonal warrior-like outstanding performance, or can not escape the fate of the limit number, when everything is ready, scrappy into the driver's seat, navigation warm prompt of the limit information, but in an instant to pour out all passion.
In order to let the passion be completely released, Jeep launched the Wrangler new energy model, this model is equipped with a power battery, so that it has a pure electric mileage of 55km, although the battery is not large, but it has an immediate effect on fuel saving, the most critical thing is that it can hang the green card, not limited to the impact of the line, and according to the fuel consumption display provided by netizens, its comprehensive fuel consumption hovers around 8 to 10 liters per 100 kilometers. Although it is not an absolute fuel saving, it has made great progress compared to before, because of the motor assistance, so the plateau performance of Wrangler's new energy has also been correspondingly improved. In this way, driving a wrangler new energy battle sword Tianya has also become practical.
Tank 300 HEV
(Expected to be available by the end of the year)
The launch of the tank 300 successfully ignited the domestic hardcore off-road market, so that friends can take out more than 200,000 yuan to enjoy the fun of more than 500,000 yuan similar to the Wrangler, and its appearance performance is very trendy, and the interior is several grades higher than the Wrangler. It is precisely because of the outstanding appearance, so many friends buy it as a commuting scooter, but the tank 300 is always a fierce horse, and its fuel consumption makes friends who are not mentally prepared a little caught off guard.
The Great Wall also has a countermeasure for this, at last year's Shanghai Auto Show, the tank 300 HEV model was officially unveiled, heV model is based on the tank 300 city version to build, so the scope of application is more extensive, because of the use of hybrid form, so its fuel consumption will inevitably have a significant decline.
Uncle Che believes that in the absence of high-intensity off-road demand, the use of the central differential to distribute the power of the four-wheel drive system has been enough to use, and the tank 300 city version also has a rear axle differential lock, which also makes its ability to pass fully guaranteed, as for the listing time of this model, it is expected that at the end of this year, like the tank 300 but do not want to bear too high fuel consumption of friends, may wish to pay attention to it.
Beijing BJ40 diesel series
(18.49~204,900 yuan)
BJ40 can be regarded as the ancestor of hardcore off-road in China, but its popularity is not as hot as the tank 300, the reason is that BJ40 did not grasp the quality control during the time when the original model was listed, resulting in the vehicle having its own appearance. However, the current BJ40 has been transformed, while the interior and reliability have been correspondingly improved, but also have more power types, of which the fuel saving of the diesel version of the model is particularly important at the time of the current oil price surge.
Although BJ40 does not use hybrid form, the inherent efficient performance of the diesel engine makes the fuel consumption of 8 to 9 liters per 100 kilometers of BJ40 relatively reasonable, coupled with the relatively low price of diesel, so that the cost of the car of friends has also been significantly reduced. The BJ40 has front and rear differential locks and a transfer case in off-road configurations, which gives it a fairly hardcore passing capability. Faced with high oil prices, the BJ40 diesel version is a better choice.
Uncle Che summed up
The emergence of Wrangler new energy is destined to be hardcore off-road will go to the direction of hybrid, the motor and hardcore off-road are matched together, and it always feels hard enough to listen. But in fact, the electric motor does make a great contribution to the performance improvement of the hard off-road, and if the vehicle has an external power interface, it can also greatly expand the practical functions of the hard off-road. If you are interested in hybrid hardcore off-road, you may wish to be a "wait party", because the hybrid trend of hardcore off-road has begun, tank 300HEV and PHEV models are on the agenda, and the domestic Jietu TX is also planning PHEV hard-core hybrid, and independent brands currently have efficient hybrid systems, so in 2023, hard-core hybrid may launch a scuffle, and at that time, the choice range of friends will be more extensive.
