Configuration summary
The configuration of the independent brand is rich enough to reach the dazzling degree, and the functional equipment of the more adequate auxiliary driver has also been optimized, such as the impressive shadow driver function, only after simple operation, with flexible control to achieve the maximum assistance driver, as a domestic 7-seat SUV, the three car configurations are relatively rich, but relatively speaking, the second generation trumpchi GS8 in the comfort and vehicle driving dynamic system and other configurations do have to do more materials, more humane.
The third row of the GS8 is more prominent
The testers were 186 tall and weighed 86 kilograms.
When adjusting the second row of the General Gram 09 to a distance of one punch ahead, the third row of leg space can no longer accommodate the normal sitting position, which is also a sacrifice made by Lynk & Co 09 to retain enough trunk space.
The Lynk & Co 09 rear seats are both electric and raised, which makes it easy for children to operate.
When the second row of the second-generation Trumpchi GS8 is adjusted to a distance of one punch and two fingers from the front, the third row still has more than one finger of legroom margin, which almost meets the third row legroom standard of the MPV, which is also a sacrifice for the trunk space to ensure the comfort of the third row.
