With the liberalization of the two-child policy and the upgrading of the domestic automobile consumption market, MPV has begun to explode in the Chinese market in recent years. With its strong loading capacity and comfortable driving experience, it is the best model for many family cars and business receptions. From the current high-end market, Buick GL8 has become a leader in the MPV market through more than ten years of hard work and development in the Chinese market. In addition to the thriving Buick GL8, Honda's duo Alexandre and Odyssey also had a stable performance, and with the localization of Kia Kahua, the calm of the mid-to-high-end MPV market was once again broken.
Today, with the diversified needs of domestic automobile consumers, this group of people who pursue a comfortable life has also let the MPV market be detonated again. In the second half of 2021, Kia introduced the fourth generation of Jawa models into domestic production, a global model with cumulative global sales of 2 million units, and began to become a new disruptor in the mid-to-high-end MPV market.
So how does Kia Jawa get out of the loop? First of all, it is an MPV, secondly it is an MPV that is larger than the medium and large MPV, the size is comparable to the Buick GL8, it is larger than the Alexand, Odyssey, etc., and finally it is an intelligent MPV that integrates the intelligent configuration of science and technology. So let's compare the home odyssey and Jawa today to see what is the excellence of Kia Jawa?
Every seat has the right to enjoy
What is the appeal to MPV? That is, the large space, especially the second and third rows, is the advantage of MPV over medium and large and even large SUVs, and the ultra-high space utilization rate is the biggest competitiveness of MPV. Kia Rega went this way, surpassing the Honda Odyssey with its 5155/1995/1795mm body trim and 3090mm extra-long wheelbase. In addition to the advantages in body size, the same is true for the interior space.
In particular, the performance of the second and third row seats of The Jawa is even more anti-heavenly. The second row of seats supports front-to-back left-right movement, seat back angle adjustment, seat cushion height adjustment, leg rest adjustment, seat heating/ventilation, and the second row of seats is also designed with high-end pressure-relieving seats to maximize Jawa comfort. These configurations are much higher than the Odyssey, and they can be easily used for both domestic and commercial purposes.
The third row of seats is just an emergency? When you see Jawa, you will find that the original 7 MPV locations are enjoyable. In order to facilitate the multi-purpose use of MPV models, Kia Jawa's third row of seats adopts a sunken folding design to maximize the storage space. In addition, in addition to the conventional configuration of the rear privacy glass, Kia Kahua also provides a second and third row of sunshades, which are rare in domestic MPV models, which is enough to see the care of each occupant of TheA.
The large space can also be fully equipped to travel
Users who have experienced the Honda Odyssey know that this car is really good in terms of comfort, but if the 7-person trip, the trunk has almost been encroached upon, which is why many people give up the Odyssey, if the family travels, they can't carry luggage, fish and bear paws can't have both.
And A Jiahua is different, it allows you to travel for 7 people, but also has 627 liters of trunk space, far more than the Odyssey, luggage all taken away, this is what an MPV should look like, not only in line with the mature North American market car demand, but also in line with the needs of the Chinese market. To know that this generation of Jawa also provides an 11-seat version of the model in the Korean market, it is enough to see that the interior space of this car is large enough to accommodate 4 rows of seats, which is simply a brother.
Comfort configuration that goes beyond its peers
When it comes to configuration, it can be said that domestic users are most concerned about the point. Considering the convenience of everyday life, many of the comfort features on the MPV models are what we need. Honda Odyssey added double glazing to improve the NVH performance of the new car, which is crucial for an MPV model. Only good tranquility is the basis for improving comfortable travel.
In the face of the strict requirements of domestic users, in the front partition, fender plate, fender plate, fender plate, central channel, central bottom plate back, neck plate, rear plate dustproof, etc., the fourth generation of Jawa has applied the highest level of sound absorbing materials of the same grade, effectively improving the comfort of driving and improving the NVH of the vehicle, such a design is already a superior configuration in the same price point.
The fourth generation of Jawa is also excellent in terms of safety configuration, through comparison we can see that the price of 339,900 yuan of The Joyce is higher than the Odyssey price of 328,800 yuan, although the price difference is 11,100 yuan, but the extra cost of more than 10,000 yuan, converted into more security and technology configuration, quite practical and insurance. In addition to the improvement in configuration, in terms of space and comfort, the fourth generation of Jawa has also improved comprehensively compared with Odyssey.
Intelligent technology is the best
From the perspective of technology configuration, Kia Kahua is also outstanding, such as the current popular joint screen design, both screen sizes reached 12.3 inches, full of technology. In addition, the new car also supports voice control and remote operation, as far as possible to improve driving safety, and even through the voice to control the seat heating and ventilation function, the practicality is greatly improved. In addition, Kia Jawa also supports three-zone voice, in addition to the driver can voice control, rear passengers and co-pilot passengers can operate voice commands, and these functions, Honda Odyssey is not available.
Write at the end:
Kia's fourth generation Of Ka Wah is priced at 28.89-33.99 million yuan, providing four configuration models, and achieving a high match for entry, while honda odyssey is priced at 23.58-35.48 million yuan, regardless of space, configuration, power and other aspects are slightly inferior, in contrast, Ka Wah is more sincere, can give users more comfort and convenience to enjoy, buy MPV, is not this the demand?
Another point that must be mentioned is that the odyssey is introduced in the Japanese version, which is very different from the American version of the odyssey. And Aga Jawa is a truly global car, the strength should not be underestimated, especially in the harsh North American market, Kia Ka Wah has achieved word-of-mouth, market double harvest.
300,000 yuan of medium and large MPV choice, want a large space, high configuration, strong sense of science and technology, etc., do not have to do multiple choice questions after the audition, Kia Jawa may be more in line with the needs of this type of car buyer.
