Since Nissan launched the three-cylinder Qijun, it has been criticized. But according to Nissan, this car was developed at a particularly high cost, so what about The X-Trail? What are the advantages and disadvantages?
In terms of static experience, Qijun can indeed see many advantages, such as many body coverings are used in aluminum alloy materials, which is very helpful for lightweighting. In addition, many structural parts of the chassis are also aluminum alloy, such as the front overhang of the swing arm, the bearing seat, the rear overhang of the bearing seat, the upper control arm and so on.
There are also places that can see the advantages are the interior, the workmanship is more refined, better than the same level of Haoying, CR-V, and the car machine is also a plus, the central control screen may be the largest and most intelligent at the same level.
But the car has a magical operation, almost 800 rpm at idle, but once the hood is opened, it reaches about 1200 rpm, which is clearly to make the three-cylinder engine look less shaky.
In fact, this car has good power, I measured zero hundred acceleration for 8.4 seconds, but the 100-0KM/h braking distance is relatively crotch-pulling, basically about 40 meters.
In addition, a little bit of throttle speed immediately went up to run 3000 rpm, the sound of the engine is very unpleasant, it is easy to think: this is the inherent characteristics of the three-cylinder engine.
Although the Qijun chassis is made of good materials, it is not the case in fact, and when passing some large potholes, the rear suspension vibration bounces and the thinness are more obvious.
