Near the end of the year, many brands began to enlarge the move, and Foton Motor's general G7 was listed at this juncture. As a brand new pickup, its price is not low. The official guidance price is 119,800-165,800, from the price point of view, the listing of the Great General G7 is also in contrast with the Great Wall Motor - Cannon, the main advertising slogan of the Great General G7 is also "the first choice for high-end pickup trucks", and there are also great expectations for the brand side of this car, whether it can cause pressure on the Great Wall Motor - Gun We wait and see.

The style of the general, the appearance is eye-catching
Compared to other pickup trucks, the Appearance of the General G7 is eye-catching. The overall style is tough and has the "style of a general". The oversized front grille shows the domineering feeling to the fullest, and the brand LOGO is integrated into the trim, which looks imposing. All led headlights have been blackened, and the cool style combined with the sharp design can easily highlight the unique atmosphere. The design sense of the General G7 is still relatively obvious, and the body side lines are also very smooth, with the fashionable sports side pedals, which can not only enhance the appearance but also enhance the convenience.
Interior: The advantages and disadvantages are obvious
It can be seen that the interior design of the General G7 is still a hard work. The interior style of the German luxury SUV and the three-dimensional cockpit design run horizontally through, which is very in line with the aesthetic views of modern young people, and the sense of technology and fashion presented is also obvious. This is the advantage of the General G7, but there are pros and cons. It is precisely because of the use of this set of interior design language, in terms of practicality will be lacking, for the purchase of pickup trucks most of the people pay more attention to convenience and practicality, with such a design language, will greatly reduce the user experience. In addition, the car uncle feels that a pickup truck is also equipped with seven-color atmosphere lights, which is really not different.
Intelligent configuration: decent
The intelligent configuration of the Great General G7 can only be said to be decent, and most of the configurations are relatively common. Including mobile phone remote APP start, automatic constant temperature air conditioning, etc., there are fewer configurations in innovation. It is also equipped with 4G Internet T-LINK system and AI intelligent voice interaction function, which can provide perfect driving habits and remote diagnosis functions. However, at the current price of this car, the overall intelligent configuration of the Great General G7 is still relatively low, which is not in line with the needs of modern intelligence.
Security configuration analysis
As a pickup truck, the safety configuration of the General G7 can still stand the test, and the whole vehicle adopts a large area of high-strength steel plate, which can meet the C-NCAP five-star collision standard. Equipped with dual airbags, side airbags, side air curtains, and preloaded seat belts, it can protect the safety of people in the car in an all-round way. At the same time, with high heat dissipation four-wheel ventilation brake discs, it has the characteristics of fast braking response and excellent heat dissipation performance, and the braking effect is also relatively stable.
In summary, the shortcomings of the General G7 are not many, so is this car worth buying? Uncle Che is advised not to buy, although the Great General G7 also has some advantages, but compared with the same level of Great Wall Motors - Gun, its disadvantages are also very significant.
Power: Great Wall Gun VS General G7
At the same price point, the General G7 is equipped with a 2.0T diesel engine + 8-speed automatic transmission, with a maximum horsepower of 163Ps, a maximum power of 120kW and a maximum torque of 390N·m. Great Wall Motor-Gun is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine + 8-speed automatic transmission, the maximum horsepower is 190Ps, the maximum power is 140kW, and the maximum torque is 360N·m. We can clearly see the difference from the data.
Therefore, the recommended index of the General G7 can only reach 3 stars, and in the listed configuration, Uncle Che summed up these two models that are more worth buying.

This configuration is suitable for people who do not have a good budget, although the configuration is not very complete, but it has ABS anti-lock braking system, braking force distribution, brake assist, traction control and body stability system. However, there is no tire pressure monitoring, and there are still certain deficiencies in the safety configuration.

This is a medium and high match, if you are interested in the General G7, Uncle Che suggests that you still buy this configuration. It is equipped with functions such as 360-degree panoramic imagery and cruise control. It is worth mentioning that the comfortable design of this configuration is relatively rich, the leather steering wheel and the imitation leather seat material can bring a good driving experience to the driver, and the main seat can be adjusted before and after and in height, which is still very humane.
Uncle Che summed up
On the whole, the General G7 certainly does not reach the level of high quality and low price, and the advantage in the same level of pickup trucks can only be regarded as lower than moderate, not to mention replacing the status of the Great Wall Gun. Although the appearance value is indeed very high, but the pickup truck is different from the crew car, the appearance of the vehicle can not be regarded as the main competitive advantage, practicality is the pickup truck should be more considered. In addition, the price of the General G7 does not have an advantage, so it is not worth recommending to everyone.
