Just after 2021, this year, in the automotive circle, the most discussed, in addition to the new car, "car critics" seem to have a great controversy. Because, the profession of car critic itself is to give consumers "demining", but in recent years, there have been too many "just bad food" people, resulting in the credibility of the three words "car critic" continues to decline.
Today, Jiang Ge will take stock of the new models that have been blown up by car critics in the past 2021, or acclaimed in the automotive media circle. Among them, many of them are the shortlisted models of Tencent Automobile's "National God Car". How do they actually perform? Is it like the "car critic" touted? Let's take a look!
1. Extreme Krypton 001
Hard injury: the car machine system is slow, and the automatic door bug is obvious
Keywords: domestic version of panamera
Although Krypton is a new brand and the 001 is the brand's first car, the popularity of the Kr 001 has remained high since it was booked in April. Among them, in addition to Geely's strong marketing strategy, the high-intensity exposure of car critics, coupled with unanimous praise, is also crucial.
The praise of car critics for it is mainly concentrated in "cost performance" and "chassis quality".
First of all, the price-performance ratio, the entry price of the extreme krypton 001 is 299,000 yuan, the size reaches 4970 *1999 *1560mm, the wheelbase is 3005mm, the size is very large, giving people a strong aura, plus as an electric vehicle, the mileage reaches 712km (single motor version), in addition, the entry configuration is also high, like the electric tailgate, 360-degree image and LED headlights, etc., basically are standard.
In addition, the quality of the chassis, the driving texture of the extreme Kr 001 is very strong, coupled with the weight of the car itself, the center of gravity is low, so it gives people a very solid feeling. At the same time, the extreme krypton 001 is rare, and the model that can be equipped with air suspension at the same price point is 28,000 yuan.
However, as a new power model, the bugs of the extreme Kr 001 are also obvious, such as the car machine system Caton, the automatic door sensing obstacle failure and the brake noise, etc., which are the problems that the owner has more feedback.
Of course, after all, it is a "new product", and the degree of perfection is so poor. However, these problem manufacturers are also actively repairing, and it is estimated that they can also be upgraded through warranty or OTA in the later stage. Judging from the current market situation, Extreme Kr 001 is still in a hot selling state, and the booking cycle still takes several months. However, the subsequent price, motor, sunroof and other problems have made it into controversy again.
2. Versailles C5 X
Hard Injury: Pseudo-B-Class
Keywords: French car "savior"
French cars these years... It seems to have gradually disappeared, mainly because there are no blockbuster new products. Until the launch of the Versailles C5 X, French cars returned to the consumer's vision.
Versailles C5 X as a French car... The most highlight is its chassis performance, Citroën's PHC adaptive suspension, coupled with the chassis tuning known as the "magic carpet", the actual performance, most of the car critics' views are basically "applauded", both can take into account the control, but also to meet the comfort, in other words, is "all-round". However, Brother Jiang personally experienced it, in fact, it was just like that, and it was not so "divine".
However, some car critics are not optimistic about the Versailles C5 X, such as the 38.
Especially for the evaluation of the chassis, No. 38 said that the performance of the Versailles C5 X on the track, the roll is large, the limit is low, there is no sense of sport, let alone driving pleasure, at the same time, the comfort of the chassis is also general, the aftershocks are more obvious, and the sense of high is general.
In addition, No. 38 also pointed out that although the Versailles C5 X is positioned in the B class, the actual performance is only A+ class, and the actual riding experience is also average, and the cushion is short.
It may be that No. 38's remarks are too "lonely", inconsistent with the views of most car critics, and contrary to the inherent ideas of French fans, resulting in No. 38 once becoming the target of "attack". However, from the perspective of actual sales, versailles C5 X is also quite competitive, and the sales volume in December exceeded "10,000 units", which is also the best-selling model of French cars in recent years.
3. Toyota Xena
Hard injury: Serious markup
Keywords: 2021 Markup King
The first localization of the saina, the action can be described as quite large, the new car has not yet been listed, it has attracted a large number of people to rob, "mark-up" also seems to have become a matter of course. However, looking back at the product itself, Xena's product strength is indeed strong, in addition to being deeply liked by consumers, many car critics such as Yuan Qicong believe that "Xena as an MPV, practicality is indeed strong."
Mainly two points, first of all, thanks to the advantages of body size, its length, width and height are 5165 * 1995 * 1765mm, wheelbase 3060mm, absolute size advantages, creating a very spacious interior space. Even if it is fully seated for 7 people, the tail box can still hold several boarding boxes.
In addition, due to the use of hybrid system, although the body of the car is large, but the fuel consumption performance is very good, 100 kilometers of fuel consumption is about 7L, for this size of the model, absolutely can be regarded as "fuel saving".
For home users, the two hard indicators of large space + fuel saving are indeed quite attractive. And the market situation... I believe that I do not need to say more, although the "mark-up" is not advisable, this phenomenon is enough to feedback to the fiery degree of Xena.
4. Trumpchi Shadow Leopard
Hard Damage: Measured Zero Hundred Acceleration
Keywords: civilian supercar
It is said that the "Ghost Fire Boy" has grown up and the Civic has become mature, but what about the young "Ghost Fire Boy" today? It is estimated that they have all gone to choose the shadow leopard!
The launch of the Shadow Leopard is obviously why it meets the needs of a new generation of "ghost fire teenagers", with a very aggressive appearance, a powerful 1.5T engine and a valve exhaust, etc., these configurations, the original state is enough to explode, basically no need to modify. Actual examples, online rumors, see who collapsed who! However, although the official said that its 100 km/h acceleration performance is only 6.95 seconds, in fact, most consumers measured data around 8s.
The main thing about sports is the handling, in this regard, most car critics also believe that the shadow leopard is quite sporty:
YYP: Open like AMG, mainly reflected in the adjustment, there is momentum and sound, the speed is not smooth, but there is a sense of explosion
Nan Ge said the car: 100,000 driving 200,000, 300,000 feelings, driving is very sporty
Wu Pei Channel: The sense of communication is stronger than that of Lynk & Co 03
Shadow Leopard as a compact car in the early 100,000s, Jiang Ge also tested it earlier, to be honest, there are indeed surprises, especially the "exhaust with valves", it is indeed a sense of opening. At the same time, the appearance, interior and configuration are also OK, referring to this price point, you can not force too much.
The actual sales performance is also satisfactory, and it is basically stable at the level of "10,000 units". At the same time, the cumulative orders have exceeded 70,000. It seems that at this stage, there are still many "ghost fire teenagers"!
5. Nissan's new generation of X-Trail
Hard injury: three-cylinder engine
Keywords: avatar technology house
Three cylinders, in the domestic market has always been a sales black hole, basically a "who touches who cool" situation. However, in the latest model, X-Trail obviously wants to break through itself and replaces it with a full range of three-cylinder engines.
However, this 3-cylinder engine can be described as a lot of money, Nissan is a big smash 19 billion, while the black technology inside is not small, in addition to the use of VC-TURBO variable compression technology ratio, for the three-cylinder jitter problem, Qijun has also done a lot of optimization.
In this regard, there are also many car critics on the Internet at the beginning of the launch of Qijun, calling for it, technical explanation and experience, etc., which also triggered a series of terriers such as "Qijun playing the desert, too fun".
Rationally, the improvement of the new X-Trail is indeed not small, in terms of power, the maximum horsepower is 204Ps, and the maximum torque is 300N·m, which is stronger than the 2.5L version of the old model. Coupled with the improvement of the appearance and interior, it can be seen that Nissan is sincere about the X-Trail car.
Of course, the problem of the three-cylinder engine is still here after all, although in the new car state, the performance of Qijun is not bad, but after a long time, can it still maintain this stable state, whether the jitter problem will appear, and Brother Jiang is not sure. Obviously, most consumers will not take this risk, feedback to sales, Qijun from the previous "10,000 units" level, fell to about 4,000 units.
In addition, the old X-Trail also carries the old 2.0L 4-cylinder engine to stabilize sales, and the new X-Trail, if you want to return to the previous sales level, I am afraid it is more difficult.
Overall
The "good car" in the car review population, although there are "hard injuries", but from the actual sales situation, it is basically consistent with what consumers want, after all, the car is not finished. In addition to the three-cylinder X-Trail, the rest of the current market situation is good, which also shows the importance of listening to the voice of consumers.
Of course, for the matter of buying a car, you can experience it yourself, or you have to experience it, and don't blindly trust the car reviewer, after all, the use of different scenarios, different angles, the car experience is naturally different.
