Ask a question, if you choose an SUV in the price range of about 300,000, what do you think?
Netizen 1: Young people prefer the Ashkenazi BBA luxury level! BMW X2, Mercedes-Benz GLB these
Netizen 2: Toyota Highlander, Volkswagen Tuon, Ford Explorer, Buick Encore Banner these are the first choice for home YYDS.
In fact, the above models are indeed more common choices at this price point. But now in this "oversupply" automobile consumer market, why should it be limited to these models? In addition to the above-mentioned "familiar" models, there are actually them...
Very good value for Ford
Jiangling Ford Lingyu
Guidance price: 16.98-22.18 million
After successive collars, Jiangling Ford also launched a medium-sized SUV such as Lingyu. At this point, the Jiangling Ford, which can only sell trucks, is really going to enter the mainstream home SUV consumer market.
As a joint venture brand, Jiangling Ford has given the price of Lingyu enough sincerity, and the starting price of 169,800 can even compete with the star road in the same level as the independent brand.
The 2865mm wheelbase has an excellent level of space in the same class of SUVs, coupled with the richness of the 5/6/7 seat layout, Ford Lingyu to cope with most of the home transportation needs in terms of driving space is naturally not a problem.
In other respects, the 2.0T is powered by 224 horsepower, and the peak torque of 360 Nm is not too bad in its class. And in terms of configuration, conventional intelligent driver assistance configurations such as automatic parking and keyless start are also readily available.
It can be said that Ford Lingyu can be regarded as a relatively decent family SUV model. Of course, the biggest problem of Ford Lingyu is the brand influence and channel layout, I guess many people have not heard of this car.
Volkswagen's flagship SUV has it in addition to Tuon
FAW-Volkswagen
Guidance price: 29.99-39.99 million
Lanjing is a new car launched by the Volkswagen brand in 2021, from the perspective of product level, the official guidance price of Lanjing 29.99-39.99 million and the positioning of medium and large SUVs, its appearance seems to tell the consumer audience: If you don't like the Volkswagen Tuang, we still have the Lanjing car.
But from all aspects of Lanjing's product performance, in fact, you will find that there is still a difference between the lanjing car and the volkswagen Tuang that has been fighting for many years in terms of consumption positioning.
Although both cars are equally positioned as medium and large SUVs, they also have the same wheelbase performance of 2980mm. However, Tuon is a standard 7-seat SUV model, and the whole series is equipped with a 6-seat layout (7 seats optional), and the target group is still a little different.
Secondly, there will be great differences in interior design, Tu Ang as a model that has been listed for many years, the style still maintains the previous typical Volkswagen style; and the Lanjing as a new car is naturally replaced by the latest digital cockpit, and the configuration will also form a certain difference.
In terms of power, Lanjing provides two sets of powertrains of 2.0T and 2.5T respectively, and in terms of paper power parameters, Lanjing and Tuang are also consistent. Specifically, as the flagship SUV model of North-South Volkswagen, Tuon and Lanjing are generally similar in product strength.
So how to choose between the two? The overall product force of the territory is updated, and those who like freshness can be considered more; but if you consider the discounts, the discounts given by Tuon many years ago before the listing are very large (not necessarily now), if you just have good discounts in your area, you can consider Tuon more.
Urban SUVs also have off-road properties
SAIC-GM Chevrolet - Trail Blazers
Guide price: 22.99-33.39 million
Among the choice of large and medium-sized SUVs in joint venture brands, the pioneers from Chevrolet are also worth mentioning. However, the exposure of this car on the road is still quite low, in fact, sales are not tepid. But it has to be said that the guidance price of 22.99-333,900 makes the Trailblazer look like it is indeed a very cost-effective model.
If you were to ask me what are the strengths of the Chevrolet Trail Blazers? The powertrain of the 2.0T+48V light hybrid must be an advantage for it to face its SUV counterparts. The maximum output of 237Ps and the peak torque of 350 N·m are no less than any engine of the same displacement.
And a variety of driving mode switching function, as well as the blessing of the four-wheel drive system so that the pioneer has the possibility of off-road, followed by the credit of 48V light mix, this big guy in the NEDC working conditions of 100 km fuel consumption is only 7.1L, of course, the actual 100 km 8-9L fuel consumption is normal.
In other respects, the Chevrolet Trail Blazers do not have too obvious slots in terms of space performance or configuration level.
Just to say that regardless of product factors, Chevrolet, as an American brand, is relatively low-key compared to the mainstream two fields and one industry and the Ashkenazi public in terms of the brand premium of the consumer audience. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Chevrolet can show a big profit in the consumer market.
Mazda also has medium to large SUVs
Changan Mazda CX-8
Guide price: 25.88-33.08 million
In Mazda's SUV product matrix, not only the CX-3 and CX-5, but also the CX-8, which positions medium and large SUVs. Although it seems too low-key to many friends, the official guidance price of the CX-8 is only 258,800 yuan, and there are still tens of thousands of preferential margins in the terminal market.
However, although the Mazda CX-8 has a wheelbase of 2930mm and a length of 4955mm, it is one lap larger than the Highlander in terms of parameters, and it also has a 7-seat layout, but in fact, it is not good at space performance. For consumers who want to buy a family car, it is indeed not as widely applicable as the above models.
At the same time, in this era, the 2.5L self-priming engine on the Mazda CX-8 does not have much advantage in power, the maximum horsepower of 192Ps, the maximum torque of 252N·m is not eye-catching, but it does not prevent this medium and large SUV from being smooth and easy to open, and the maintenance cost of the self-priming engine in the later stage will indeed be cost-effective.
So who is this big size SUV suitable for? Like driving, do not want the daily commute is too boring can be considered, and although this 7-seat SUV is not very large, but the multi-person travel emergency is still no problem.
Unfortunately, Mazda is also a Japanese brand but does not have the life of "two fields and one production", and with the passage of time, CX-8 has become weaker and weaker for consumer audiences, and now CX-8 seems to be a little late to want to exchange sales for profits. If there's one word to describe the fate of the CX-8, the word "missed" might be somewhat appropriate.
Write at the end
In general, these cars currently have good preferential margins and cost-effective advantages in the terminal market. The budget of about 300,000 yuan does not have to focus on only a few mainstream brands and models, and these cars as a whole can still give you some surprises.
