What other car can compare to the Range Rover Evoque? Yes, the Range Rover Evoque, which is now on sale, is the extended version of the Aurora L.
It really answered that sentence - the only one who can win me is myself, and the same is true for Aurora. This is not to say that Land Rover is good, nor how good the Aurora is, but the positioning of the Aurora car does not seem to be assimilated with the mainstream BBA's mid-size SUV, but a maverick car.
Xiaobian has a friend, is a loyal fan of Aurora, is also the owner of the old Aurora, drove for three years, personally proved that there are many prejudices against Land Rover Aurora, at least he used the car for three years, really did not encounter any big problems, the warranty period changed a water pump. What the aurora gave him was not a annoyance, but a surprise.
On the one hand, there are negations and doubts in the anecdote, and on the other hand, the actual measurement feedback of the owner, how about the aurora? With this idea, we came to the distribution outlets, did not look at the advertisement, came to see the efficacy, and saw how the real car was.
There are 7 points I want to say.
Experience is the 2021 Aurora L premiere, the official guidance price is 429,800, the appearance is nothing to pick, to this day, Aurora is still synonymous with high-value SUVs and embodiments.
Today, without talking about the exterior, let's first look at the interior.
It can be seen that this interior is absolutely worthy of the name of the Range Rover series, and has obvious advantages in the same level of models. The three large-screen designs of the same range Rover star vein are decentralized, and under the large area of leather wrapping, the texture and grade sense are born spontaneously. The light-coloured interior is just right, incorporating the popular designs such as the air conditioner outlet, and the visual effect is even more outstanding.
Compared with the design of the central armrest box and the old Aurora, there is a significant increase, the visual is more heavy, the driving experience is also significantly improved, the comfort is higher, and there is a separate place behind the central armrest to put the mobile phone. And you can see that there are also many small details in the air outlet of the rear air conditioner, with piano paint and chrome trim and other material embellishments, more texture and grade.
, to the rear row, can only be said to be worthy of the lengthened Aurora L, the current size is worthy of the positioning of the medium-sized SUV, 2841mm wheelbase, the front row is adjusted to a comfortable position, the rear leg still has a distance of more than two fists, the space is not a star and a half, the rear leg space is abundant, in the 1904mm width of the car, the ride comfort is higher.
The seat is also a color-block design, imitation leather material, splicing light-colored diamond-shaped perforated leather, with seat heating function, exquisite double stitch embellishment, visual and tactile are double enjoyment. The rear seats not only support backrest adjustment, but also have an electric adjustment function that allows for proportional reclining.
To say that the biggest change in the interior of the Aurora L is the gear rod design, which cancels the previous knob design, and now becomes an electronic gear lever, the handling is improved, and the sportiness of the SUV is also highlighted, but the visual effects and the creation of the sense of grade are definitely not as good as the previous knobs. There are also some small details in the gear bar area, the matte brushed panel made of metal, and the storage compartment, which are very reasonable in design, taking into account the visual aesthetic experience.
Some people don't like this gear bar design, but there is no denying that it has a symmetrical beauty that should cure a lot of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
4WD, with rear axle limited slip differential, chassis is very stable, 2.0T engine, pressed 200/249 horsepower, matching 9AT gearbox, also with 48V light mix system, acceleration performance is excellent. Support 5 driving mode switching, with automatic parking, uphill assist and steep slope slow down function, support temperature zone control, but also with rear side privacy glass, control fun and driving quality are guaranteed.
Because the first version of the test drive is equipped with british treasure high-end audio equipment, the speaker has reached 11, the top is equipped with 15, and the secondary top is also 11, but it can be optionally equipped with 15, and the optional cost is much lower than that of Porsche. Once again, through this detail, I can feel that Land Rover is worthy of being a super first-line luxury brand, the door panel details are handled in place, never drag mud with water, clean and clean, very textured.
Although it has been extended, it is only for the internal passenger compartment, and the trunk has not changed much. And the value of the face value as always online, it can be said that after making up for the short board of space, aurora has reached another level, the product power has been greatly improved, and it can fully compete with some mainstream medium-sized luxury SUVs, and the comprehensive strength performance is absolutely not left behind.
But Aurora L also has its own troubles, such as declining influence, land rover brand status, can not support the price of aurora L. Moreover, the later stage of the old model is basically close to 100,000 in exchange for sales, which has a certain damage to luxury and retention rate, which will become a hindrance to the growth and development of sales of existing models.
At present, Aurora L may be a revamp to increase product strength and also increase brand confidence, or perhaps because of the impact of the new car period, the terminal decline is not high, take the first version as an example, the price is 429,800, the current discount is less than 30,000, the naked car is also around 400,000, considering the loan and other factors may give a certain decline, but the overall change is not large, and the old model compared to the less preferential, to a certain extent also restricts the sales performance.
