Winter has arrived, for some users in the north, in the face of rain and snow weather, if there is a pure hardcore off-road SUV, it is obvious that the driving process can become more relaxed. BJ40 is such a car, time-sharing four-wheel drive and two differential lock mechanisms in front and rear give it a strong passability, in the wet snow road, what kind of dynamic performance does it have?
Driving an off-road vehicle to drift?
In this snow test drive event, the models that can be dynamically experienced are the 2021 2.0D automatic four-wheel drive blade hero version (front and rear electronic control locks) and the 2021 2.0T automatic four-wheel drive ring tower champion version. (Note: Some of the image materials are from the official photography team)
In terms of power, the former is equipped with a 2.0T diesel engine with a maximum power of 163 hp and a maximum torque of 380 Nm; the latter is equipped with a 2.0T gasoline engine with a maximum power of 224 hp and a maximum torque of 380 Nm. In terms of transmission system, it is matched with an 8-speed manual transmission.
As the only object in the car that comes into contact with the ground, the importance of the tire is self-evident. In the case of snow pavement, even the most powerful four-wheel drive system is not as good as a set of snow tires, compared to ordinary tires, softer texture snow tires can provide better grip in this road condition.
The BJ40 offers a variety of driving modes to choose from, such as Sport, Economy, Standard, snow, etc. After getting on the car, select the snow mode first, and then turn on the high-speed 4WD. Stepping on the accelerator, the driving computer will automatically control the torque output range of the engine, the tire does not produce obvious slippage, and the starting action is very smooth.
The time-sharing four-wheel drive system allows all four wheels to get effective driving force, and with the help of the body stabilization system, on snowy roads, whether it is accelerating under the accelerator or quickly steering, it can always give a sense of stability.
Without stopping, you can switch from high-speed four-wheel drive to two-wheel drive mode, at this time the driving force of the vehicle relies on two rear wheels, to put it in layman's terms, at this moment it has become a "rear-drive car". The starting motion is still smooth, but the sense of stability transmitted when accelerating is much weaker, and the intervention of the body stabilization system can be felt when steering. Although the cornering speed is significantly reduced, it is still not difficult to drive.
Turn off the body stability control system and try something bold. At this time, it seems to want to enter the state of "sprinkling joy", a little attention to the tire will break through the grip limit, the vehicle control is much more difficult, but it will not make the driver afraid, the suspension system can provide strong support, the body roll is still in a reasonable range. At the same time, the "back-drive" feature allows this off-road vehicle to make a coherent drift in the snow, which is really enjoyable.
Tough guys are also very sweet?
No matter from which point of view, this BJ40 presents a "tough guy" image. A variety of exterior design elements such as the boxy body contour, tough muscle lines, exposed door hinges, etc., reveal the wild nature of hardcore off-road vehicles.
The 12.3-inch full LCD dashboard is standard for the whole series, the display effect is clear, and it can provide a variety of rich vehicle information such as the current direction of the vehicle, the body tilt angle, etc. In the field off-road environment, the driver can easily grasp the current situation of the vehicle.
The seats are leather-wrapped and comfortable to ride. The higher sitting position allows the driver to have an excellent view, which is in line with the characteristics of the hard-hitting SUV, giving people the illusion of "overlooking the mountains".
In the cold winter, seat heating must be a thoughtful configuration, and the front seat heating function supports 3 levels of adjustment. Through the APP, remote control of the vehicle (such as unlocking the vehicle, starting the engine, etc.), turning on the vehicle air conditioning and seat heating in advance, after getting on the car, feel the warmth from the "tough guy".
Write at the end:
For this BJ40, the slippery snow road does not pose too much of a threat to it, and with the help of the body stability control system, four-wheel drive system and snow tire, the passing is greatly guaranteed, which is precisely the confidence and charm that most urban SUVs are difficult to present.
In the cold winter, if there is such a tough guy to escort you, will you feel more secure in your heart? (The official guidance price of Beijing BJ40 is 159,800-26.99 million yuan)
