When many people buy luxury mid-size cars, they tend to first consider the 3/4/C of the BBA brand (that is, BMW 3 Series, Audi A4L, Mercedes-Benz C-Class), which have high sales, large brand influence, and a good word-of-mouth image in the minds of consumers, so they buy the most. However, there are always some consumers who are reluctant to buy these models because they feel that these cars are seen too much on the road and have no personality.
So, isn't there any good "flat" model to choose from in the luxury mid-size car market? This has to be put before, there are indeed not many models to choose from, but with the second half of this year and several new luxury mid-size cars have been listed and released, we buy medium-sized cars to pursue personality people may wish to take a look at them. Without further ado, let's take a look at which 3 models are.
Korean luxury upstart: Genises G70
Guidance price: 24.98-35.50 million yuan
The Genises G70 is a Korean luxury mid-size sedan launched at the end of October 2021, with a new car that has been on the market for less than three months and is priced at 249,800-35.50 million yuan. For consumers who want to buy a personalized luxury mid-size car, the Genissy brand itself has a lot of personality, and the exquisite logo can make people mistakenly think that this is a Bentley at a glance, so when such a car is placed in front of people, the degree of personalization I think is by no means lost to the 3/4/C model.
From the appearance point of view, the appearance of the Genisesy G70 is young enough, the front grille shape is very much like a heart, with a large area of the grid grid and two sides of the split LED headlights, the overall visual effect is also directly full. In terms of size, the length, width and height of the GenisesYS G70 are 4700/1850/1400mm, and the wheelbase is 2835mm, which is the standard non-extended mid-size car "body".
Entering the car, the interior of the Genisesee G70 gives people a sense of déjà vu of the BMW 3 Series, looking very simple, the materials are also advanced, plus the Genisesy metal logo in the center of the steering wheel, the degree of personalization is indeed very strong. In addition, in the flagship version of the Genisesy G70, the manufacturer also equipped it with a naked-eye 3D dashboard, which once again enhances the sense of technology in the car.
In terms of space, the first thing to affirm is that the seat materials and comfort of the Genisesee G70 are good, and the overall level of luxury cars is also good. However, due to the small size and wheelbase of only 2835mm, when the experiencer with a height of 178cm sits in the back row, the head space is only 1 finger, the leg space is only 44 fingers, and the overall space is indeed slightly inferior to those extended 3/4/C models.
As for the power, the Genises G70 is equipped with a 2.0T engine, the maximum power of the new car is 245 horsepower, the maximum torque is 353 Nm, the power output is comparable to the 2.0T high-power engine of the competitor model, and the transmission is a matching 8AT gearbox. It is worth mentioning that the lowest model of the G70 is the longitudinal rear-drive layout, and the second low-end is equipped with a full-time four-wheel drive, so from the perspective of hardware parameters, the mechanical quality of this car is indeed better than the 3/4/C model sold in China.
In general, spending less than 250,000 naked car price to buy a GenisesYS G70 from Korean luxury, I think its cost performance is still quite high. To have a face value, to design a design, to have power and power, in addition to the space is almost meaningless, the terminal 4S store layout is not much, I really can't think of any reason why I can't start with it. So, the GeniseyS G70 can obviously be a 3/4/C level replacement model, what do you think?
American Luxury Player: Changan Lincoln Z
Pre-price: 25.50-342,000 yuan
After getting tired of seeing German luxury, if you come to an American luxury player at this time, it is undoubtedly quite "boring". No, as Lincoln's models in China are selling better and better, Changan Lincoln has also recently launched their new luxury medium-sized sedan, Lincoln Z. As the successor of Lincoln MKZ, Lincoln Z has opened pre-sale, the pre-price of new cars is 255,000-342,000 yuan, and there are 7 models to choose from.
From the point of view of appearance, the appearance of the Lincoln Z I think is not lost to the 3/4/C model. The new Lincoln family design looks not only atmospheric but also textured. In terms of size, the Lincoln Z has a length, width and height of 4982/1865/1485mm, and a wheelbase of 2930mm, which is better overall than the previous GeniseyS G70, but slightly inferior to the BMW 3 Series spindle's 2961mm. The side door handles are still hidden, and the tail is a penetrating taillight group, which looks very layered and relatively young.
The interior is even more unique, lincoln Z directly uses a very similar to the Ford EOVS model of the integrated Dalian screen, the overall size of the screen is 12.3 inches + 27 inches, it seems to also add a lot of points to the sense of technology in the car. Of course, many people don't like the interior design of all screens, so how many people Lincoln Z will be recognized in the future remains to be verified.
In terms of space, the 172cm tall experiencer sat in the back row of the Lincoln Z, with 4 fingers of head space and 2 and a half fists of leg space, which is an excellent level in a medium-sized car. In addition, although the middle platform of the Lincoln Z is a little raised, it is fortunate that the height is not high, so there is no problem in riding comfort, and it can be fought with the BBA brand 3/4/C model.
In terms of power, the Lincoln Z series is equipped with a 2.0T engine, with a maximum power of 246 horsepower and a maximum torque of 376 Nm, and the transmission is a matching 8AT gearbox. Interestingly, the Lincoln family's push-button shift has been preserved on the Lincoln Z model, so friends who like this design are also blessed. In addition, the lincoln Z's drive form is a front-facing front-drive, so friends who want to buy it also recommend actually test driving.
Finally, is the Lincoln Z value of 25.50-342,000 yuan worth starting with? I think if all you need is a luxury medium-sized sedan that looks luxurious and has personality, and at the same time has a high configuration and good home performance, then the Lincoln Z is still very good. Compared with the 3/4/C model, its product power is updated, the price is more attractive, and the Lincoln brand has always brought a good tone, so it is also a safe choice.
Domestic luxury new force: NIO ET5
Guidance price: 32.80-38.60 million yuan
Weilai ET5 is a domestic new power luxury car that has just been listed, and the new car is positioned as a pure electric medium-sized car, and the price is 328,000-38.60 million yuan. At this moment when new energy vehicles are popular, spending more than 300,000 yuan to buy a luxury electric vehicle has also become the imagination of many people, so I put Weilai ET5 in today's recommended list.
From the appearance point of view, Weilai ET5 looks very "electrified", the front face is a closed shape, and the headlights are "squinting" design. The side adopts a slip-back coupe body, with a length of 4790mm and a wheelbase of 2888mm, which is larger overall than the Tesla Model 3 model. In addition, the door handle of the NIO ET5 is also telescopic design, and it is also equipped with an electric suction door, which is also not available in this price model. The tail is a through-type taillight design, which is very delicate and has a sense of technology.
The interior is still the design style on the Weilai ES8 model, it seems to have some "matryoshka face", but fortunately, the overall style is relatively simple, and the steering wheel looks more elegant. There are many functions in the screen, which can give users a unique full-sensory immersion experience.
In terms of power, the ET5 will be equipped with a power system of a front permanent magnet synchronous motor and a rear induction asynchronous motor, with a maximum power of 150kW in front of the motor, a maximum output of 360kW, a peak torque of 700N·m, and an acceleration of 4.3 seconds per 100 kilometers. In terms of battery life, the CLTC has a range of more than 550 kilometers with a standard battery pack (75kWh), a long battery pack (100kWh) with a range of more than 700 kilometers, and a battery pack with a long battery pack (150kWh) that lasts more than 1,000 kilometers.
In general, as the second model launched by NIO, NIO ET5 still has the strength. For those consumers who do not want to buy traditional luxury brand fuel vehicles such as 3/4/C, the emergence of WEI ET5 also gives everyone more choices. Therefore, if your car purchase budget is in the range of 300,000-380,000, then the Weilai ET5 model represented by this domestic luxury new force can also be considered.
Finally, after reading the above 3 luxury and medium-sized cars that are more personalized than 3/4/C models, how do you think their product power is? In life, will you be willing to buy and recommend friends around you to choose them? Leave a message in the comment area below, let's discuss it together. (Text/Univision Auto Dazhuo)
