In the first week of 2022, Manga gave mg one of the first test drive of the year. This car was listed at the end of last year, although it was listed for more than a month, but its attention in the young consumer group is still quite high, pre-sale 7 days to harvest more than 3,000 orders, in this era where everyone is in the praise of new energy vehicles, such achievements are indeed not bad. What exactly is it about impressing young consumers? Brother Man share my test drive experience.
I've always believed that only by looking at the right eye is there an interest in going deeper into the heart, and I believe that many consumers are the same, a car wants to attract my attention, first of all, it has to look good. MG ONE provides two styles of front faces, namely the α version of the main digital intelligence sports and the β of technology and fashion, because of the shortage of chip supply, and there are differences in chips between the two models, so the current sales are MG ONE-α.
The front face adopts the latest family design of mg's "catfish mouth" shape, and the shiny black grille is a bit Lexus new inner flavor wood there? From the logo to the surrounding divergence, the visual impact is strong enough. Combined with the muscle lines on the cover, the front lip of the movement, the side air inlet, etc., the sports breath is pinched. The shape of the light group is more special, the LED strip is divided into three segments distributed in different positions, and the recognition of lighting is quite high.
From the side, the MG ONE is even more eye-catching, with a two-tone body, a suspended roof, a concave waistline, a 19-inch fan blade wheel, an orange caliper, and so on.
In terms of size, MG ONE has a length, width and height of 4579/1866/1617mm and a wheelbase of 2670mm. The body proportions are not as thick as traditional SUVs, especially the large forward angle of the tail box, which visually compresses the height of the body and has a bit of a crossover station wagon flavor.
In actual experience, the front integrated sports seats are wrapped up very fully, and the support and softness of the rear seats are worthy of recognition. In order to ensure the head space of the rear occupants, the overhead has also been hollowed out. However, the rear seat cushions are shorter and have limited support for the thigh part of the occupants, so comfort will be slightly insufficient on long-distance travel.
The shape of the rear part of the car is not so radical compared to the front of the car, the light group shape is simple, the overall level is clear, and then the surrounding shape will be slightly different according to the different models, reversing radar / image These more basic functions are naturally provided, and the rear is a suitable design for all ages.
Entering the car, you can clearly feel that the entire center console is surrounded by the driver's seat, and the first thing that comes into view is definitely the "polyline-shaped" 30-inch super large joint screen, because a large number of physical buttons are simplified, so the layout of the car is clearer, plus some bright black trim panels and silver trim, so that this car has a certain sense of technology and grade.
The car engine system is equipped with the Zebra Roselle intelligent cockpit system, and the hardware is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip, which is the highest specification of the current class of products. The system's functional interface distinction is concise and clear, the operation is also smooth, some daily functions can be adjusted without entering the secondary menu, and the user experience is still very good.
Installed a variety of APP for use, if it is the active group of the B station is blessed, because MG ONE and the B station have cooperated, you can directly in the central control screen to brush the B station video, send bullet screen, like, etc., scared me to quickly click on the first few videos of the UP main "Car Man Tribe" one-click three consecutive.
Voice assistants are also good, accurate recognition, fast response speed, the use of Dharma engine AI semantic system of black technology, in the future through independent learning ability may be able to have a more intelligent human-computer interaction experience.
The screen near the far left of the driver's seat is a trackpad that integrates the rearview mirrors, lights, and door lock functions, although this design is quite novel, but it is really inconvenient to operate in the driving process of Man Ge, at least it is not suitable for blind operation, and it takes a certain amount of time to become familiar.
The sports steering wheel is also very eye-catching, and the steering wheel is designed with a flat bottom up and down, which is unique in shape. The SUPER SPORT toggle button in the lower right of the steering wheel interior is eye-catching, and when opened, the dashboard will turn red and instantly ignite the motor nerves.
As a model for young consumers, it must have the personality of a young person to drive, that is, it is true that it is time to be plain, and it can make you comfortable. If you want to experience a short period of speed and passion, it can be fast, stable and accurate. MG ONE is equipped with MEGA Tech 1.5T high-power engine, is one of the top ten engines of "China Heart", the maximum power of 181Ps, the maximum torque of 285N·m, this set of powertrain for a compact SUV is still no pressure.
From the point of view of the acceleration of the body feeling, the power output is smooth, because the matching is the CVT gearbox, so the speed increase is also linear. However, the four media teachers on the car on the day of the test drive are all big men, so the feeling of pushing back when the full throttle is not so strong, but it is still not a problem to drive by yourself or take the boyfriend/girlfriend to the wave.
Remember the orange SUPER SPORT button on the steering wheel mentioned earlier? When pressed, all the speakers in the car, including the double speakers on both sides of the headrest, will turn on the simulated sound, and for those young drivers, this button is like the nitrogen acceleration in a racing game, full of ritual. Perhaps this is the exclusive romance of THE MG ONE engineers' design for a small number of young people.
MG ONE chassis is based on the new SIGMA architecture design, so the overall style is more inclined to sporty tuning, chassis support is good, although it is a compact SUV, but can feel that the vehicle center of gravity is very low, help to maintain a stable body posture during intense driving, quite a bit of Subaru taste, such chassis tuning to the driver is a higher driving pleasure.
After the whole test drive, Man Ge felt that it was indeed an SUV that understood young people, with good looks, intelligent experience and driving pleasure, and the price range of 100,000-130,000 was also within reach of young people. Tired of those who are tired of the sales list, you may wish to learn about this sporty compact SUV, maybe you can discover a new continent.
