As a high-end automobile brand under Chery, e-Car XunXingtu finally ushered in its flagship SUV in March this year - Lanyue. By October, the 400T was officially listed. From the perspective of price, the Lanyue 400T model is only 4,000 yuan more expensive than the starting price of the 390T model, but it has also been further improved in power.
As a star that focuses on the high-end market, it has been quite popular since the birth of the brand, and the user reputation and market feedback have been gratifying. Today we will depart from Chengdu to Shifang Shenpugou Scenic Area for a test drive experience of the Xingtu Lanyue 400T model, and we will fully feel the power, handling and comfort of the vehicle.
Since it is a 400T model, the first thing worth paying attention to is its power system, the new model is based on the M3X Mars architecture PRO to create, in terms of power, safety, driving experience have been comprehensively upgraded.
The 400T stands for a new 2.0T engine with a maximum power of 192 kW and a peak torque of 400 N·m. With a maximum power of 96 KW and a l torque of 200 N·m, it has a thermal efficiency of up to 41%, and has three driving modes covering multiple scenes.
As a medium-sized SUV, the 400T engine supports even a full load, which is enough to push. The previous 390T model in the initial stage, the power came some suddenly, even somewhat urgently, resulting in many people thinking that there was some channeling, the new 400T model made improvements at this point, so that when starting in non-SPORT mode, the power output is still relatively gentle and linear.
When driving at high speed, even if you increase the speed to 120km/h, you will hardly feel insufficient power, and in the cruising state of high-speed fixed speed of 120km/h, even the speed of the vehicle can be controlled at about 2000rpm, which means that high-speed fuel consumption will have a good performance.
The 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission is still relatively good in matching with the engine, and the downshift is more active, and at the same time, when changing gears in low gear, it will not make people feel that there is a very obvious shift impact, especially in ECO mode, although the timing of the shift is earlier, but the frustration of shifting is still relatively small.
The Starway Moon 400T uses a front McPherson independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension, and the suspension tuning of the Starway is always easy to remind people of Lincoln, the overall soft, pay attention to comfort and safety. When the road encounters major bumps, it is obvious that the collapse of the front section of the suspension is very fast, and the absorption of vibrations is particularly obvious.
In terms of appearance, the overall design of the Xingtu Lanyue 400T uses a large-size air intake grille, supplemented by three horizontal chrome decorative strips inside, and the two sides of the intake grille are equipped with sharply shaped headlight groups, and the uplift LED light strip looks extremely aggressive. The fog lights of the new car are designed vertically to create a sense of boundary in front of the car.
On the side of the body, the Xingtu Lanyue 400T uses a double waist line design to create a tough line. The new car's front and rear protruding fender design enhances the off-road nature of the new car. In terms of the tail, the tail design of the Xingtu Lanyue 400T model is square and tough, and the tail light group adopts a blackened design, equipped with a bilateral exhaust layout of two outs. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the Xingtu Lanyue 400T are 4970/1940/1788mm, and the wheelbase is 2900mm.
In the interior part, the overall design of the interior of the Xingtu Lanyue 400T is simple and atmospheric, and a large number of physical buttons are cancelled in the interior, which further creates a full sense of technology. The new car adopts a three-spoke flat-bottom steering wheel, equipped with a dashboard with a 12.3-inch full LCD display + 12.3-inch central control LCD display, the central control screen built-in LION Lion 4.1 Wisdom Cloud system, in addition to some conventional multimedia entertainment functions and human-computer interaction functions, the new car also supports remote FOTA.

The comprehensive strength of Xingtu Lanyue is really good, leaving aside the appearance value, from the perspective of various functional configurations, Xingtu Lanyue has achieved the standard for entry, such as electric induction tailgate, intelligent driving ADAS, HD 360 and head-up display and other functions, which is very real.
In addition, because of the daily performance of this 2.0T engine, I think it can be satisfactory, it is not inferior to the mainstream joint venture 2.0T engine in terms of power response and NVH level, and it is close enough to match the gearbox. In terms of space, it is not necessary to mention that the 2900mm wheelbase brings a spacious seating space in the car, which is completely fine to meet the travel needs of the whole family.
