In the domestic medium-sized SUV market, at the beginning of 2021, there is another dark horse model in China, it is Tiggo 8, to be honest, this model has received a very good response in the country so far, basically 10,000 + units per month, remember that in the highest sales month of this year, the monthly sales of the model exceeded 20,000 units, occupying the first place in the domestic medium-sized SUV, which shows that our own brand has not only risen in the compact SUV market, For the domestic large space mid-size SUV market, there have also been some outstanding models.
However, if you stand in the high-end, business point of view, in fact, Tiggo 8 in these two aspects is still somewhat interesting, and in November of this year, in China we saw a pre-sale very hot medium-sized SUV, it is "Trumpchi GS8", the new car will be listed tonight! It is 1.9 meters wide and domineering than Guandao, with the third generation Aisin 8AT, and can drink 92 oils. Remember in the pre-sale, the guidance price of this model is between 188,800-246,800, to be honest, for a medium-sized SUV, such a price range is really not cheap, even after the pre-sale is completed, I feel that the pricing of the model is estimated to be around 170,000, and it has caught up with the price of the same level of Hongqi HS5 luxury SUV.
Although the entry on this model is high-ended, but some versions also joined the same fourth-generation THS hybrid system as Toyota Highlander, but for an independent brand, in terms of car logo alone, this model can not be compared with other joint venture cars, and in the recent period, I have also seen many car critics praising this model, perhaps in terms of marketing and promotion, this Trumpchi family really fell on the blood, after all, only in terms of product strength and vehicle configuration, I feel that it is difficult to pick out the faults in the new Trumpchi GS8.
Come to the side of the body, in terms of design language and workmanship effect, it looks really like a Million Luxury car, the use of the through-waist line further increases the visual length of the vehicle, under the illumination of the lights, the whole car looks golden, take such a static effect to the same level highlander, crown Land Fang is not exaggerated, mainly in terms of price, the new Trumpchi GS8 is cheaper than them. As for the rear, the new Trumpchi GS8 continues the main tone of the once calm and atmospheric design, and the design in the tail is also slightly straight, combined with the vertical taillights with the through-through chrome decoration, and the true exhaust of the two sides, so that the vehicle has increased by another level in terms of driving out and turning back.
As for the body space size, the new Trumpchi GS8 has made a great upgrade compared to the old area, its own length, width, height of 4980mm, 1950mm, 1780mm, wheelbase of 2920mm, for a medium-sized SUV, in fact, such a space size has been very good, after all, when the new car and Honda Guandao are put together, the two models have a huge gap in volume. Under such a large size of space, the model also has 6-seater and 7-seat two versions in terms of body positioning, here I suggest that you choose the 6-seat version, for daily home transportation, business travel, in fact, the 6-seat version of trumpchi GS8 is enough, whether it is the second row, the third row of legroom performance is very good, sitting down for a long time will not feel the sense of depression and resignation.
Turning to the interior part of the vehicle, we can see the 12.3-inch LCD meter, 14.6-inch central control screen, HUD head-up digital display, multi-color mood lights, 360-degree panoramic image, 10 brand speakers, rear independent air conditioning, full-speed adaptive cruise and other configurations, anyway, in some advanced luxury configurations, we can see on this new body. In terms of the vehicle center console, we can see that the vehicle interior materials are very solid, and the details of the workmanship are also some high-grade leather and sewing that cover most of the area of the center console, so that this model is essentially positioned as a high-end luxury SUV of the same level.
Finally, as for the power performance, there are two sets of power systems on the new body, namely the fuel version and the hybrid version, of which the fuel version uses the 2.0TGDI + third-generation Aisin 8AT combination of Julang Power, which is also a high-end in the same level of models, completely getting rid of the small displacement engine on other joint venture bodies, the power combination in the maximum power is 252Ps, the maximum torque is 400N .m, such power performance parameters, compared with other Tiguan 1.4T, The version of the Guandao 1.5T has been completely suspended in many aspects, and after careful comparison, you can see that the new Trumpchi GS8 is very generous in terms of overall performance.
Of course, in order to make the owner of the car cost lower, the hybrid version was also added to the new body, using the 2.0TM + Toyota fourth-generation THS hybrid system, of which the maximum power of the engine is 190 horsepower, the maximum torque is 320 Nm, and for the hybrid motor version is also divided into high and low power, high power can burst 237 horsepower, low power can burst 182 horsepower, and toyota Highlander The biggest difference is that the new Trumpchi GS8 uses turbo + hybrid, while Highlander is 2.5L self-priming + hybrid The two models feel different in driving, and in terms of comprehensive fuel consumption, they are controlled between 5.3L and 5.8L, mainly daily driving out, and can also add No. 92 gasoline.
In short, for this model that has been pre-sold for almost a month, it is finally going to be officially launched tonight! Width 1.9 meters than the crown road domineering, with the third generation aisin 8AT, can drink 92 oil of the new Trumpchi GS8, I feel that its biggest drawback is that the pricing is high, although it uses the highlander with the same hybrid, but people Toyota sells the car logo, and you are already bad in terms of car logo, pricing this high want to sell hot if you want to sell it is difficult.
