It may have become increasingly weak in brand influence in recent years, but every time Subaru comes out with a new car, it will still cause heated discussions from many parties. According to the latest news, it will launch a new model XV this year. The new car will make its mark in the compact SUV space, growing Subaru's product line while also expected to help the brand out of its current predicament. It is expected that new cars will still meet domestic consumers in the form of imports, but there will not be much difference in price compared with current models. Let's take a look at how strong Subaru XV is, and whether it can break through the siege and become Subaru's game-breaking work.
Subaru XV gives people a refreshing look in terms of appearance, it does not follow the old ways, but keeps up with the current aesthetic change trend, with a fashion sports style to attract attention, which is very good for young consumers. The car in the front part of the face with a new style of headlights to attract people's eyes, arrow-type shape is not only full of impact, but also can improve the overall recognition, after opening at night also has a good penetration ability, observation field of view has been improved. Although the size of the middle mesh is slightly general, the built-in part of the horizontal trim above + the lower honeycomb structure enhances the aggressiveness and is more outstanding after the blackening treatment. The subaru LOGO in the middle is better set off, and driving on the street can attract a crowd of people to turn back. The lower grille and the air intakes on both sides are integrated, and the overall movement attribute is revealed.
Coming to the side, Subaru XV continues to take the dynamic route, the slip-back posture is very harmonious and beautiful, and the front and low back upturned structure can effectively reduce the wind resistance coefficient while improving the attractiveness of the face value. The middle through-the waistline is very eye-catching, cleverly connecting the front and back, so the sense of layering is enhanced. The car is also very innovative to add plastic protective coatings to the fenders and rear wheel arches, which seems to tell people that it can be both outdoor off-road and home transportation, and the range of vehicles is relatively wide. The multi-strip oversized aluminum alloy wheels are quite sharp, and you can feel the powerful aura when you observe it statically, and it is more chic after blackening.
In terms of tail, the subaru XV is clearly distinguished between the various regions, and the three-dimensional sense is outstanding. Although it is not equipped with the most popular set of penetrating taillights, the "bird wing" shape is full of personality and is very colorful when lit. The hidden exhaust structure has an urban flavor and the sense of refinement has been optimized. The lower bracket is tougher after the redesign and can play a good protective role. Overall, subaru XV is remarkable in terms of appearance, although it is not amazing, it will still be recognized by some consumers, laying the foundation for seizing more living space.
Inside the car, the interior part of the Subaru XV is a bit unadorned. It is not only stretched in terms of novelty, but also does not show superiority in grade. The size of the embedded central control screen of the car is very ordinary, and the surrounding border is very thick, and the sense of technology is reduced a lot at once. It can not have too high expectations for its car-machine system, and can only be said to meet the basic transportation needs, and the human-computer interaction experience is not satisfactory. A large number of physical buttons still exist, which may take care of the car habits of individual customers, but it seems out of place under the trend of touch screen, which will dissuade many potential consumers. Its gear-handle structure continues the tradition of Subaru fuel vehicles, which is blameless in touch, but it seems a bit outdated at the moment. Some models are still traditional mechanical dashboards, and this configuration is really difficult to arouse interest. However, the addition of some yellow stitching still adds a lot of sports look to the car, which is one of the few highlights of the interior part.
In terms of power, the Subaru XV is different from the current model, reflecting the attitude of the car to reform and innovate. It is expected that the overseas version of the model will be based on a 2.5L self-priming engine or a 1.5T turbocharged engine, so there is no need to worry about controlling fuel economy. In order to meet the needs of Chinese consumers, after entering the domestic market, it will be equipped with a high probability of 2.0L self-priming engine and 2.0L hybrid version of oil-electricity, which not only adheres to the traditional fuel vehicle route, but also keeps up with the trend of new energy development, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone to meet the needs of different people's cars. On the drivetrain, the Subaru XV will be matched to the Linearatronic CVT gearbox, and the handling experience goes without saying, and you can show off your driving skills. The brand's proud four-wheel drive system will certainly not be absent, and will show strong charm when dealing with a variety of complex road conditions to meet everyone's expectations for performance. Overall, subaru XV is above the passing line in terms of appearance, and in many places it has incorporated the latest fashion elements and enhanced its attractiveness. It is also worth looking forward to in terms of power, the output will not be too crotch-pulling, and the daily car is also more fuel-efficient and resistant. However, the new car still has a lot of room for improvement in the interior part, and it is difficult to get people interested at present, which will be the biggest obstacle to its winning more favor.
