In the past two years, the mid-size and medium-sized SUV market has sprung up, no matter which brand, no matter what energy form, it seems that this field cannot be avoided.
Although more and more models have joined to meet the needs of more diversification, but with it is more hesitant and tangled choices of consumers, and as one of the most representative models, the following three models may point out the direction for you: Toyota Highlander, a medium-sized SUV benchmark for many years, with a budget of about 300,000 yuan, almost an SUV that can hardly be avoided; ideal ONE, a model of new forces to build cars, and rising sales are enough to prove its success; Trumpchi GS8, a domestic high-end SUV breaker, After a generation of fame, the new second-generation GS8 has once again struck strongly, continuing to push Chinese auto brands upwards.
#尺寸相当 Space has its own trade-offs
At the first sight of these three models, I believe that your eyes will most likely be attracted by the new second-generation GS8, after all, the ideal ONE is the most moderate and has no characteristics; the Highlander is more old-fashioned, attractive but has not changed much in recent years. In contrast, the design language of the new second-generation GS8 is obviously much more publicized, especially the hybrid version of the model, the middle net that occupies most of the front area of the car shows a rather domineering visual effect, the boxy body contour is strong and powerful, and the new front and rear headlights have an outstanding texture.
In this class of models, interior space is undoubtedly the focus of attention for potential consumers. First of all, in terms of body size, the gap between the three cars is not large, the ideal ONE is slightly superior, and the new second-generation GS8 is close behind, but in the space inside the car, they all have their own trade-offs.
With the exception of highlander's lowest-end model, all three models have a three-row seat layout. Among them, the largest back row space is the new second generation GS8, when the second row of seats is adjusted to the back, the legs can get more than three punches of margin, even if the second row of seats is the frontmost, there are also two punches of space, and at this time the third row has nearly two punches of space, while the ideal ONE and Highlander, whether it is the second row or the third row can not be so generous, basically at this level of the middle level.
However, the body length is placed here, if the second and third rows of space have a large surplus, then the trunk will naturally be affected, so in the case of three rows of seats are open, the new second-generation GS8 trunk performance is not as good as the other two opponents.
It is worth mentioning that the new second-generation GS8 each model provides 6 seats and 7 seats two seat layouts to choose from, if the family can choose 7 seats, if you pursue a more comfortable ride, 6 seats will undoubtedly bring a better experience, the most important thing is to provide consumers with more solutions, on-demand choice, the most reasonable.
#动力形式多样 The new GS8 is the most balanced of the new second-generation GS8
The space is large enough, so the abundant power naturally has to keep up with the pace, in terms of power, the three models can be described as each with their own ability, and a variety of power forms are provided. First of all, the new force ideal ONE uses range extended range power, which includes a 1.2T engine and two motors to form a dual-motor four-wheel drive system, and the peak torque of 530 Nm is indeed very outstanding. However, once the ideal ONE is in a state of power loss, the power output will drop a lot, without the assistance of the motor, the weak power of the 1.2T engine will be a big problem for such a large body, and the fuel consumption will also increase dramatically, and the use of the scenario is limited.
Toyota Highlander is equipped with a 2.5L hybrid system, of which the 2.5L engine has a maximum power of 192 hp and a peak torque of 238 Nm, and the transmission system matches the E-CVT transmission. In addition, the two-wheel drive version of the model is equipped with a 134kW motor on the front axle, while the four-wheel drive version has added a 40kW rear motor, the system's comprehensive output power is 249 horsepower, and the fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is about 6 liters, maintaining Toyota's consistent fuel saving advantage, and everyone knows that Toyota's signature THS hybrid system has always been the leader of the same level.
As for the new second-generation GS8, there are two options, of which the fuel version is equipped with a 2.0T engine, the maximum power is 252 horsepower, the peak torque is 400 Nm, the transmission system matches Aisin's latest third-generation 8AT gearbox, which is enough to provide a smooth power performance; the hybrid version of the model uses the same Hybrid system of Highlander, but the difference is that the GS8 is equipped with a 2.0T engine, 0-100km/ h Acceleration time of 6.9 seconds, fuel consumption of only 5.3 liters per 100 kilometers, fuel economy comparable to the benchmark Highlander, and even a sense of "blue out of blue and better than blue".
#兼顾科技与豪华 Only the new second-generation GS8
At this price point, the internal configuration and luxury level are also valued by everyone. First look at the ideal ONE, the simple and high-tech carriage is undoubtedly a highlight of it, especially the four large screens on the center console, the three words "new forces" are proudly written on the face, and the symmetrical layout is also quite attractive.
Highlander is slightly inferior, even to the top of the model, Toyota's more traditional design ideas are still flooded with the entire car, the advantage is that a large number of physical buttons provide good convenience, blind operation is very smooth, but it is really difficult to connect with the word advanced, whether it is the look and feel are more general.
As China's high-end SUV breaker, the new second-generation GS8 combines the advantages of the two, creating a strong sense of technology, the control of details and quality is also in place, metal materials and leather wrapping add a lot of luxurious atmosphere, far beyond the average price point. In addition, in terms of configuration, although as a traditional car company, the popular function GS8 is not left behind, the smart cockpit supported by the ADiGO intelligent driving interconnection ecosystem is at the forefront of the times, and functions such as AR-HUD and 540 ° transparent car bottom will make "driving" easier and safer through the power of science and technology.
Summary: "A generation of fame", for a Chinese brand model priced at 200,000 yuan, Trumpchi GS8 let us see its extraordinary strength, and through this competition with two strong opponents, let us know the new second generation of GS8 evolution again. In fact, overall, the new second-generation GS8 is more like the ideal ONE and Highlander's set-up, which has both the technology and intelligence of new forces, and also accompanied by the peace of mind and ease of use of traditional fuel vehicles. At the same time, the new second-generation GS8 is also more cost-effective, after all, compared to the other two opponents, it has exchanged a lower price of nearly 100,000 yuan for a more value-for-money enjoyment.
Of course, the cost performance is not a simple low price, but the new second-generation GS8 through all aspects of the careful craftsmanship to give back to consumers of high value. With the hot sales of Trumpchi M8, Trumpchi's high-end series models have initially gained a foothold, especially the arrival of the new second-generation GS8, which has consolidated the pace of Trumpchi's upward exploration. Although it is said that Highlander is an unshakable presence at this level, in my opinion, trumpchi GS8 seems to be more qualified for this glorious position.
