As we all know, the current independent brands are quite good, the number of consumers who buy is also increasing, and the probability of independent brands seen on the road is also getting higher and higher. So which model of the independent brand is more cost-effective? There is no way to answer this question, today we choose two popular models to compare with you. It is worth mentioning that these two models have a good influence in the terminal market, one model is GAC Trumpchi GS4, and the other model is the new AX7 Mach version from Dongfeng Fengshen. In order to maintain impartiality, the two models we selected are highly similar in price, the Trumpchi GS4 is the 2022 270T DCT premium version, and the manufacturer's guidance price is 113,800.

From the appearance of the design, the appearance of the two models is actually still good, first look at the Trumpchi GS4, the use of a large mouth intake in the middle of the net design, matching the triangle shape of the movement surround, eagle eye shape of the headlights is more sharp. But unfortunately, the movement surrounding part is directly decorated with black plastic panels, which has a little rough feeling. From the side, it is equipped with a whirlwind wheel shape design, the specific size is R17, and it is also equipped with a design of the suspended roof, which has a good sense of appearance.
As for the tail design, the tail lights on both sides are relatively slender, decorated by chrome trim strips, and the new car also uses chrome material to decorate the exhaust pipes with both sides. In the body data section, the length, width and height of the Trumpchi GS4 are 4545/1856/1700mm, and the wheelbase is 2680mm.
Looking at the new Mach version of the AX7, its overall design is relatively sporty. The hexagonal air intake mesh is filled with intermittent chrome trim strips, and the headlights on both sides are eagle-eye designs, equipped with red lines embellishment, and the sporty sense of the front of the car is more prominent.
From the side, it is also equipped with a floating roof design, and the design of the large castor hub is used, and the configuration is higher.
As for the tail design, the taillights of the new Mach 7 version adopt a through-line design, and are also equipped with a real double-sided chrome exhaust pipe, a penetrating black diffuser, and the sense of appearance and sportiness are in place. In the body data section, the new Mach AX7 version has a length, width and height of 4660/1880/1690mm and a wheelbase of 2715mm. In fact, from the appearance of the design, the two models are not good or bad, but it is clear that the new AX7 Mach version occupies the advantage of body data and wheel configuration.
The interior design of Trumpchi GS4 adopts a symmetrical design, which is generally neat and tidy, and the central control part is equipped with a 10.25-inch embedded large-screen design, with mobile phone interconnection, no voice control system, and no OTA remote upgrade system. As for the satellite navigation and positioning system, there is no one. In addition, the Takchi GS4's driving computer screen is equipped with a dashboard with a double gun barrel.

The seats are leather and the main driver's seat is electrically adjustable. From the perspective of the entire interior structure, it is obvious that the interior design and configuration of the new Mach 7 version are higher.
The rear seating of both models is spacious, but it is clear that the new AX7 Mach version has the advantages of wheelbase and width, so the new AX7 version has a higher ride comfort. It is worth mentioning that the Trumpchi GS4 is equipped with an electric sunroof, while the new Mach AX7 version is equipped with a 1.17㎡ openable panoramic intelligent sunroof, and the comfort is naturally higher.
Next, let's compare the power system of the two models, to be honest, the power system of the two models is not weak, and it can even be called very strong.

The Trumpchi GS4 is also equipped with a 1.5T engine, with a maximum power of 169 horsepower and a peak torque of 265N·m, which is matched by a seven-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, which also uses four-wheel independent suspension. Although the power performance of the Trumpchi GS4 is still very strong, it is indeed a little behind the new Mach version of the AX7.
