Can you buy a SUV with great performance for less than 130,000? The joint venture brand is probably not wanting to, and only looking for it in the domestic brand, this price point is exactly where the domestic SUV is mainly powered, but the domestic models at this price point on the market are either more powerful and crotch-pulling, or the control is not particularly good, is there a balance between the two?
This year, Dongfeng launched the Dongfeng Fengshen AX7 Mach version, this owner is playing performance and control, some media call it "highway rocket", to be honest if it is Bugatti with this title, so touted feel a bit of a kill, fortunately some time ago test drive this car, "highway rocket" is really not counted, today does not blow and black and share the actual experience of this car.
The biggest advantage of this car is in its power, although it is not called a "road rocket", but it has certain advantages compared with some 2.0T models. Despite being a 1.5T power, its explosive power and sustained output in the mid-to-late section are already superior in the current 1.5T SUV.
The start is very fast, the push back feeling is enough, the maximum torque output platform is very wide, and the 100 km acceleration measurement can run into 7 seconds, compared to most of the 1.5T has been very difficult. Here can actually be seen that Dongfeng for the engine tuning of this car is spent a little thought, from the book data, the maximum power of the high-power version of 190 horsepower, the peak torque of 300 Ng/ m The overall data is not large, because the maximum torque begins to continue to output to 4000 rpm at 2000 rpm, so the overall acceleration feeling is very good, here it is recommended to buy a high-power version, low power although cheap but lost the acceleration feeling that this car should have, and the support for performance is also relatively weak.
The second advantage is its control, McPherson type front independent suspension and double horizontal arm type rear independent suspension with good, suspension process is more reasonable, because the overall suspension is more compact The whole car is very sensitive when controlling, especially when the high-speed cornering, it shows a little mechanical quality, more convenient to close to the bend, and the acceleration after the bend can also be done in place, which is a relatively refreshing model at this price.
The third advantage is the consistent advantage of domestic brands - rich configuration, such as remote control, keyless entry, built-in WindLink car machine system, functional support for 5G car networking, OTA upgrade, voice recognition control and various active security configurations, etc. Relatively speaking, the Mach version of AX7 is still adhering to the characteristics of rich domestic car configuration. However, some configurations are still divided into models, which requires us to carefully consider it. For example, from the perspective of car safety, it is not recommended that you buy two low-end models, because these two cars are not equipped with front and rear head airbags, and the airbag is never too little.
The whole vehicle is equipped with a reversing image, but the low-end two models only have a rear reversing image, compared to the 360-degree imaging system of the two high-end models, or the high-end is more practical, in fact, here I want to explain that the choice of configuration must choose practical, some flashy configuration can be basically ignored, and the AX7 Mach version is relatively practical as the core of the existence.
For example, the electric trunk, the AX7 Mach version only has the top model, which can not but be said to be a small disadvantage, as an SUV for the practicality of the electric trunk is more important here, but you only have the top model is not a little deliberately guided? Of course, the top of this car is not expensive to tell the truth, but such behavior is not recommended, at least the sub-top is also loaded with an electric trunk to be more sincere.
Well said so many advantages we also to explore its shortcomings, such as the aforementioned WindLink car machine system, this system actually feels a little slow, the overall response speed is not fast, although there is 5G but the speed of voice control is not fast, recognition success rate also needs to be improved.
And because the overall speed of the car is not particularly smooth, I personally think that we will still rely more on mobile phone interconnection, here I have to say that although the AX7 Mach version supports HiCar but does not support Apple mobile phone interconnection, can only be connected through Bluetooth, does not have a projection effect, so it may be affected in terms of audience.
In addition, in terms of driving comfort, the control of the whole car is relatively tough, but it is not comfortable, due to too much emphasis on the style of control, and the suspension process is short, the tail of the AX7 Mach version is actually not particularly stable. And due to the problem of acceleration feeling and brake fit, although the speed is fast, the punch of the brake is obviously uncomfortable, suitable for driving but not suitable for riding.
The rear seats are slightly cramped, there will be certain problems for a long time, and from the driving style performance of this car, the comfort of the rear passengers cannot be well guaranteed.
Write at the end:
Basically, overall, the Dongfeng Fengshen AX7 Mach version is a sports SUV suitable for young people to drive, but the overall comfort is not good, and the overall intelligent configuration is still a little interesting. However, then again, with 12.99 million can buy such a driving performance and control of the car, the cost performance is already very high, after all, it is not easy for domestic cars.
