The segment of 6/7-seatER SUVs covers the ideal models of most car buyers. The reason is also very simple, SUV has better passability than sedans, and than 5-seat SUVs, they have better spatial performance, for family car needs, it can meet the daily commuting needs, but also can take the family on weekends. There are indeed many hot-selling 6/7-seat SUVs on the market, such as the Volkswagen Tiguan L, or the ideal ONE, which occupy the sales heights of traditional fuel medium-sized SUVs and new energy medium and large SUVs, respectively, so that late entrants can not help but compare with them. Today we want to compare the new medium-sized SUV that GAC Trumpchi has just launched, the GAC Trumpchi GS8, with a price range of 18.68-24.68 million yuan.
Compared to Tiguan L, the fuel version of the Trumpchi GS8 has more space/higher configuration
In the field of medium-sized SUVs with traditional fuel, volkswagen Tiguan L has always been a hot model, here, we will compare the fuel version of the Trumpchi GS8 with the Volkswagen Tiguan L to see how the fuel version of the Trumpchi GS8 has the product strength and cost performance.
(1) The 5-seat version of Tiguan L, the leg space is not as good as the 7-seat version of the Trumpchi GS8
In terms of spatial performance, the length, width and height of the Trumpchi GS8 are 4980/5015*1950*1780mm, the wheelbase is 2920mm, and there are 6/7-seat models to choose from. The Volkswagen Tiguan L has a length, width and height of 4733*1839*1673mm, a wheelbase of 2791mm, and is available in 5/7-seater models. In terms of seat layout, the fuel version of the Trumpchi GS8 will indeed be more practical. In terms of space performance, due to the gap of almost 140mm in wheelbase, even the 5-seat model of Tiguan L is not as good as the 6/7-seat model of Trumpchi GS8 in terms of legroom performance.
In the experience of the third row of seats, Tiguan L is only suitable for emergency use, while the third row of trumpchi GS8 has a more comfortable performance. In the interior design, although Tiguan L carried out a "central control reform" known as the mid-term redesign, it was almost a "total defeat" in the face of Trumpchi GS8 in terms of luxury and design.
(2) The official guidance price is the same, and the Trumpchi GS8 configuration is more comprehensive
From the perspective of configuration, at the same price, the fuel version of the Trumpchi GS8 top-end model is the 2022 pilot series 2.0TGDI four-wheel drive extreme version (seven-seater) with the official guidance price of 239,800 yuan, and we take the 2022 330TSI automatic two-wheel drive intelligent version with a price of 233,800 yuan in the Tiguan L car series with a similar price.
In the active and passive safety configuration, Trumpchi GS8 not only has more knee airbags than Tiguan L, active braking /parallel line assist/lane departure warning/lane keeping and other active safety configurations are configured, while Tiguan L only has automatic braking.
Driving assistance function, Tiguan L is equipped with front and rear radar + reversing image, while Trumpchi GS8 has front and rear radar + 360 degree panoramic image function, and compared to Tiguan L's adaptive cruise, Trumpchi GS8 not only has full speed adaptive cruise, but also automatic parking and steep slope mitigation and other functions.
And the comfort configuration of this piece, Trumpchi GS8 is also more comprehensive, compared to Tiguan L it has more seat ventilation and heating functions, the rear seats also support electric reclining, intelligent configuration of this piece also has a more intelligent voice control system and gesture control and facial recognition functions, and Trumpchi GS8 also supports OTA upgrades, and Tiguan L In addition to simple voice control, many functions need to rely on mobile phone interconnection to complete.
(3) All are 2.0T, Tiguan L score high and low power, Trumpchi GS8 is more powerful
The fuel version of the Trumpchi GS8 adopts a power combination of 2.0T engine with 8AT transmission, the maximum horsepower is 252Ps, the peak torque is 400N·m, and the Tiguan L is equipped with a 2.0T engine with a 7DCT transmission power combination, which is divided into high and low power, the low power version has a maximum horsepower of 186Ps, the peak torque is 320N·m, and the high-power version has a maximum horsepower of 220Ps and a peak torque of 350N·m. From the book parameters, the Trumpchi GS8 has better power performance.
Both cars have four-wheel drive models, Trumpchi GS8 for the timely four-wheel drive, Tiguan L for full-time four-wheel drive, in terms of fuel economy and urban driving, Trumpchi GS8 performance will be better, although tiguan L's full-time four-wheel drive has better passability, but Volkswagen's full-time four-wheel drive system is not very strong.
On the whole, if you do not consider the brand factor, the fuel version of the Trumpchi GS8 model is basically all-round beyond the Tiguan L in terms of product strength, which is definitely a better choice for those consumers who care about cost performance.
Hybrid to range extender, Trumpchi GS8 does not have the ideal ONE fuel saving, but has a cost performance
Ideal ONE since its launch, the heat performance is still good, in the field of new energy SUVs, sales and topics have been kept in the front position, so when the hybrid version of trumpchi GS8 encounters the ideal ONE of range extender power, who is more worth buying?
(1) The ideal ONE has more space, but the Trumpchi GS8 has 7 seats
The hybrid version of the Trumpchi GS8 has a length, width and height of 5015*1950*1780mm, a wheelbase of 2920mm, and is available in 6/7-seat models. The ideal ONE has a length, width and height of 5030*1960*1760mm, and a wheelbase of 2935mm, which is a six-seater model. Although the ideal ONE is a medium to large SUV, the hybrid version of the Trumpchi GS8 does not differ much in body size and wheelbase performance.
If there is a demand for a 7-seater model and you want a better space performance, trumpchi GS8 is indeed the only choice, but from the comparison of 6-seater models, the horizontal space and vertical space performance of the ideal ONE have more advantages.
Trumpchi GS8 and Ideal ONE use a large area of leather wrapping in the interior, there are still some differences in the design ideas, GAC Trumpchi GS8 is more traditional luxury, suspension central control screen with wood grain / piano paint decorative board, and then with chrome decoration to create a sense of luxury. The ideal ONE chose a sense of technology with multiple screens to create an atmosphere, and the triple screen design is very futuristic. And in the control area below the air conditioner outlet, the ideal ONE also chooses to use screen touch operation, and there are few physical buttons in the car. Space performance and interior design this piece, Trumpchi GS8 and ideal ONE seem to be a five-to-five performance.
(2) The configuration is not low, the front row is all "full", and the ideal ONE rear row is more comfortable
In terms of configuration, we chose the top model of GAC Trumpchi GS8 priced at 246,800 yuan, which was compared with the ideal ONE priced at 338,000 yuan.
From the safety configuration, Trumpchi GS8 is six airbags, the ideal ONE is more knee airbags, active safety configuration, both vehicles are performing well, lane keeping / lane departure warning / traffic sign recognition / active brakes are equipped, the difference is that Trumpchi GS8 has more fatigue driving reminders, and the ideal ONE has more parallel assist. Overall, the ideal ONE will perform better, and the Trumpchi GS8 is more comprehensive.
Both models are equipped with front and rear radars and 360-degree panoramic images, as well as automatic parking. Both models are full-speed adaptive cruises, and the Ideal ONE also has suspension adjustment.
The Trumpchi GS8 and the Ideal ONE comfort feature not only features such as power seat adjustment/seat heating/power-sensing trunk, but also functions such as seat ventilation and wireless charging. However, the Trumpchi GS8 has more functions such as head-up display/ main driver leg rest adjustment, while the ideal ONE second row seat not only has waist adjustment/boss button, but also heating and massage functions.
The Trumpchi GS8 is a newly released model, and under the premise that the ideal ONE has an OTA upgrade and a good voice control system, there are more gesture control and facial recognition functions.
(3) The ideal ONE range extender is more fuel-efficient, but it is 100,000 yuan more expensive
The Trumpchi GS8 hybrid version of the model adopts a 2.0T engine + motor with E-CVT stepless transmission power combination, the maximum horsepower of the engine is 190Ps, the peak torque is 320N·m, the maximum horsepower of the single motor version is 182Ps, the peak torque is 270N·m, and the maximum horsepower of the dual-motor version is 237Ps and the maximum torque is 391N·m.
The ideal ONE as a range extender model, in which the maximum horsepower of the generator is 131Ps, the maximum horsepower of the engine is 333Ps, and the maximum torque is 455N·m. From the perspective of power performance, the ideal ONE does have better power performance and fuel economy, according to the official statement, its comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is 1.5L/100km.
If you consider from the power point of view, trumpchi GS8 hybrid version is definitely better, it is strong enough, fuel economy is also good, although the ideal ONE fuel economy performance is better, but compared to the hybrid version of Trumpchi GS8, it is 100,000 yuan more expensive.
On the whole, although the performance in space and configuration has its own advantages, the power of the two cars are very good, but the ideal ONE of the extender is indeed more fuel-efficient, but it is obviously more cost-effective than the hybrid version of the Trumpchi GS8, which is expensive for 100,000 yuan.
summary:
On the whole, if you do not consider the public's "preconceived" brand power and the "Ashkenazi aura", Trumpchi GS8 in terms of product power is all-round beyond Tiguan L, as for compared with the ideal ONE, I think in terms of performance, configuration and luxury to create, both cars have a good performance, perhaps in the configuration and sense of technology ideal ONE has more advantages, but it is certainly not enough to fill the difference between them of 100,000 yuan, on the other hand, on the cost performance, The ideal ONE is certainly not as high as the Trumpchi GS8.
