Many joint venture brands are pushing global models to China, in fact, global cars have an advantage for domestic consumers, that is, they can also enjoy global quality in China.
Today we will talk about a global model, when it comes to global models, we can always think of Volkswagen's Tiguan, Toyota's RAV4. In fact, Nissan also has a fairly explosive model, this model is Nissan's X-Trail, in the 2018 global SUV rankings, it ranked first with 880,000 vehicles, surpassing Toyota's RAV4, which sold 830,000 units in the same period.
In December of this year, a new generation of X-Trail Honor was launched, and the overall design of this model is very competitive. There are two models on the market, and it is estimated that the follow-up will be pushed, and the manufacturer's guidance price is 189,300 yuan and 192,800 yuan.
The overall design of X-Trail Glory is quite atmospheric, and the continuation of the classic version of the shape, I believe that such a design has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the world is using a similar structure. The front face is designed in the style of the Nissan family, and the blackened grille echoes the large area of chrome material, and the sense of sportiness and sophistication is well reflected. The headlights adopt the design of the blade shape, match the light source of the LED, and the fog lamp design is used in the fog lamp position, which is more practical in the haze day, and is also equipped with LED night running lights, which effectively improves the driving safety.
From the side view, the whole car reflects a good off-road feeling, the ground clearance is high, and the anti-rubbing strip is matched in the body circle, highlighting a good off-road. Details are also well woven, such as chrome trims around the windows and door handles. X-Trail Honor is positioned as a compact SUV with a length, width and height of 4675/1820/1722mm, wheelbase of 27 04mm, a curb weight of about 1.5 tons, and good body stability.
Looking at its tail design, it also has a good ground clearance, blackened taillights, and is decorated with a penetrating chrome trim in the bumper part, and the sense of movement and refinement is not wrong. X-Trail Honor adopts a fortress-level body protection system, which is also the best safety certified SUV on three continents, which is not only beautiful and practical, but also has a good safety factor.
The ground clearance of X-Jun Honor reaches 208mm, the passability is relatively excellent, and it matches the professional tires of suVs, and the tires we use ordinary low rolling resistance are not too the same, and the grip of X-Jun Honor is stronger and the scope of application is wider. It can be said that whether it is a friend in the north or a friend in the south, the SUV of Qijun Glory is more suitable for use.
Next, let's take a look at the entire interior design of X-Trail Honor. The interior of the new car is mainly practical, reflecting a good ergonomics; the main driving and co-pilot positions have adopted a design with an arc angle, effectively expanding the riding space; the entire central control adopts a symmetrical modeling design, and the distribution of each functional area is more reasonable, which can quickly lock the functions you need. In the central control part, X-Trail Honor is equipped with a nine-inch touch LCD screen, a five-inch dashboard on the driving computer screen, and also equipped with Panasonic's customized high-fidelity luxury brand audio. In addition, the new car also has a satellite navigation system, Bluetooth telephone, four kinds of speech recognition control system, and a car networking system. In general, there are basically all the configurations, and the practical performance is also very good.
During the actual test drive, X-Trail Honor's seat ride was quite comfortable, and later I found that the new car used an aerospace-class zero-gravity seat, and the leather design was more high-grade. In addition, it is equipped with an EYE-MAX panoramic sunroof, which makes the ride more comfortable. Of course, the interior comfort is also due to the large wheelbase of 2706mm.
When I sat in the rear seat of X-Trail Honor, I found that its overall configuration was actually very good, such as equipped with rear air conditioning outlet, PM2.5 filter device in the car, and temperature partition control. In the autumn and winter, it can provide fresh air in the car, which I believe is what most friends need.
Next, let's look at the powertrain of X-Trail Honor, which is equipped with a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 151 horsepower and a peak torque of 194N·m, which is matched by a 7-speed CVT stepless gearbox. This set of powertrain in the use of the process is quite excellent, acceleration smoothness is good, and the intelligent stepless gearbox is 7.0 speed ratio, with more than 1400 kinds of transmission mode, so the fuel economy is very good, the fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is only 6.2L, and the acceleration process is also quite powerful.
In fact, when I tried to go uphill in a test drive, I found that X-Trail Honor was equipped with an uphill start assist system to avoid the risk of slipping in time, which is a very good feature for some novice drivers.
In addition to these, the chassis design of X-Trail Honor is also very good, using a four-wheel independent suspension, front McPherson independent suspension, rear multi-link independent suspension, the directivity is more accurate, and the tuning is also very comfortable. In fact, in addition to these designs we see on the books, there are many advantages, such as more dealers, faster after-sales service, and Nissan's quality is also highly recognized in China, the quality is excellent, the failure rate is low, and when it is sold as a second-hand car in the later stage, the potential retention rate is also in place.
