Now many people choose SUV as the first choice, because SUVs look relatively taller and larger, and the ground clearance is higher than that of cars. This is true for most SUVs priced at more than 100,000. However, the price of today's SUV models is also falling, and entry-level SUV models can be bought for 60,000 or 70,000. But these entry-level small SUVs don't have much advantage in terms of size and space. So with sixty or seventy thousand in hand and seventy or eighty thousand on the ground, is it to buy a car or an SUV?
At present, most of the small SUV models are based on the small car platform development, and some are even directly raised on the basis of the small hatchback, so such an SUV model in addition to the body height, compared with the car in the same price range does not have much advantage. In the range of 60,000 or 70,000, you can now buy an A-class sedan with a good size, such as this Kaiyi Xuandu.
Kaiyi Xuandu length, width and height are 4666/1825/1483mm, wheelbase is 2700mm, in addition to height, the rest of the size data can be said to be a comprehensive surpass of the current range of 60,000 or 70,000 SUV models, especially the body length, most of the small SUV body length is only 4 meters above the level, the body is shorter, especially the rear part is very short, the distance from the rear to the tail end is very small, in the rear crash safety is not as good as the three-phase structure, with a long trunk of the Kaiyi Xuandu.
As a small SUV, although it has the advantage of height and ground clearance, this advantage becomes a disadvantage when driving at high speed, and the high-speed stability of the thin and short body is poor. Not only is it susceptible to crosswinds, but it is also necessary to control the speed when changing lines at high speeds and even in daily right angle bends, otherwise there will be a large roll.
And Kai Yi Xuandu this body up to 4 meters 66, width of more than 1 meter 8, wheelbase reached 2 meters 7, body height is less than 1 meter 5 of the car, high-speed driving stability is the advantage, and this KaiYi Xuandu also uses the front McPherson type independent suspension, rear multi-link independent suspension of the four-wheel suspension structure, can take into account the handling and comfort, and even known as "cornering little cool man".
Based on a width of more than 1.8 meters and a wheelbase data of 2 meters 7, the rear space of The Wing Xuandu is very good in the A-class sedan, and the seat cushions and backrests of the car are thicker. The rear space of 60,000 or 70,000 small SUVs is generally relatively compact.

In addition, as mentioned earlier, KaiYi Xuandu uses a multi-link independent rear suspension, and the comfort will be better. Most of the small SUVs are torsion beam-type non-independent rear suspensions, which are not dominant in terms of shock absorption comfort.
Trunk space part, although the trunk height of The Wing Xuan is fixed, but its trunk cover is a hydraulic support rod, does not occupy the space inside the trunk, the internal space is very flat, and compared to the short tail of the small SUV trunk has the advantage of longitudinal length, and its rear seat backrest can also be put down, the actual Kai Wing Xuan degree trunk space performance is also very good.
In terms of power configuration, Kaiyi Xuandu is equipped with a 1.5T engine from Chery Kunpeng Power, with a maximum power of 156 horsepower and a maximum torque of 230 Nm, while many of the current SUV models in the range of 60,000 or 70,000 are mostly naturally aspirated engines with small displacement. In terms of fuel consumption, the fuel consumption values of the manual and automatic 100 km range of Kaiyi Xuandu are 6.6L and 6.9L respectively.
Therefore, from a comprehensive point of view, if you have 60,000 or 70,000 selected family cars, it is still recommended to choose the sedan of Kaiyi Xuandu, which will have better advantages in comfort, safety, handling and space, and is more suitable for the whole family. The small SUV is only suitable for simple transportation, if you really like SUVs, you can have a few years to change to a larger size SUV model.
