In today's automotive market, it is difficult to find a model that can eat all consumers, because everyone's aesthetic and car needs are diverse, which also derives many segments of products. However, as a representative model in the field of domestic new energy compact family cars, Geometry A and BYD Qin Pro New Energy have still won the pursuit of many consumers, and a big reason behind this is that these two models have achieved the dual grasp of appearance and strength, so in this strong dialogue, who can finally win? Let's take a look.
The 2021 Geometry A was launched in April last year, and the new car has a total of 8 configurations, with a price range of 118,900 to 198,900 yuan. The 2019 BYD Qin Pro New Energy was launched in May 2019, and the new car has a total of 8 configurations, with a price range of 149,900 to 204,900 yuan.
Next, The car uncle will choose the top version of the two cars for comparison, and the price difference between the two cars is 0.6 million yuan.
Exterior design
The upgrade of the geometry A Pro version is mainly focused on the power and endurance parts, the appearance and interior design basically follow the shape of the previous model, of which the new car adopts the design concept of multi-dimensional mobile life, and the appearance has a lot of large bend lines, creating a rich enough sense of science and technology. At the same time, as a pure electric vehicle model, the car adopts a closed mid-mesh design, and the front logo part has an inward concave surface, which looks very spiritual, the headlamps on both sides are narrow and long, and a large number of sharp angle lines are also emphasizing the rendering of the sense of science and technology.
The design of the front face of QinPro New Energy is very young, which should be attributed to the application of the new BYD family design, which makes the whole vehicle look very spiritual. Among them, the front two parts of the new car are equipped with a large polygonal mid-mesh connection with dot matrix trim panels as filling, and the upper part is matched with chrome trim strips that run through the lights on both sides, ensuring the integrity of the front face design. The light groups on both sides are angular in shape, and the LED light source is used in terms of lighting, and there are more matrix lights than geometric A.
In terms of body size, the specific length, width and height of the geometry A are 4752×1804×1503 mm, and the wheelbase is 2700 mm. The new model enhances the dynamics with some uplifting lines on the side of the body, and the slip-back design is also a highlight of the side, which is also loved by young people.
The specific length, width and height of QinPro New Energy are 4765×1837×1515 mm, and the wheelbase is 2718mm, which has a certain lead in various data. The side lines of the new model are very harmonious, the bottom of the door has a concave treatment, the front and rear fenders are slightly protruding from the body, and the two-color wheels at the bottom make the vehicle feel more sporty.
Geometric A sets up a ducktail shape at the tail, adding a touch of vitality to the entire tail, the irregularly shaped taillights are connected by silver chrome trims, and the light groups and trims are lined up in a single line, with good lateral visual tension. In addition, the rear surround of the new car is decorated with a large area of black skid plate, and there are vertically arranged light strips on both sides, which looks very different.
Qin Pro new energy tail design more emphasis on the sense of layering, the biggest highlight of the tail is that the through-type light strip, not only the appearance is very high, but also one of the bydi brand now family logos, the upper part of the light group uses bright color trim strip connection, the rear encirclement adopts the same color design as the body, enhancing the sense of unity of the tail shape.
Interior design
Geometric A interior has not been adjusted, the color of the entire interior is very bright, giving people a cold sense of technology, the center console is dominated by horizontal lines, the role is to extend the visual width, while creating a thin, light feeling for the center console, and like the air conditioning outlet, the front central passage and other parts have a large number of irregular shapes, which seems to render an extreme sense of futurism. The center console of the new car is equipped with a 12.3-inch touch LCD screen, which supports satellite navigation, original mobile phone interconnection mapping, Bluetooth car phone, voice recognition control, Internet of Vehicles, OTA upgrade, etc. in terms of functions.
QinPro New Energy adopts a new interior design officially known as the interstellar surround smart cockpit, which has a good material workmanship performance, and will have a high degree of favorability when riding, and this design has been popularized in BYD's models. The 8-inch dashboard in front of the new owner has different theme modes to choose from, the suspension design is very technological, and the screen display information is comprehensive, and the occupants can read a lot of vehicle-related information from it, but the interface design is somewhat exaggerated. The new car is equipped with an 8-inch touch LCD screen on the console, and supports an optional 10.1-inch screen, which can be adjusted according to the application, or adjusted by the physical buttons, which is quite smooth to use, and the functions are complete and easy to get started.
The geometry A interior seats are wrapped in a mix of leather + Alcantara material, which supports the two-way adjustment of the height of the main driver's seat, the electric adjustment of the main driver's seat, and the heating of the front seats. The interior padding of the front seats in the new model is moderately soft and hard, the stitching in the details enhances the overall texture of the seat, and the side wings of the cushion and backrest are prominent, with good lateral support.
The seats in the Qin Pro new energy car are wrapped in imitation leather fabrics, and the function is compared to the geometric A, which lacks the electric adjustment of the main driver's seat and the heating of the passenger seat. The front seats of the new car are more sporty, with soft interior padding, wide seat surface, good support for human shoulders, and good riding comfort.
Geometric A rear seats in the material application and workmanship with the front row to maintain the same level, the car's trunk space is very generous, while the opening of the trunk is not small, and there are some hidden storage slots under the trunk bottom plate, but unfortunately the shape of the storage slot is not particularly regular, the practicality is not high.
The rear seats in the Qin Pro new energy vehicle are also good in terms of comfort performance, and the space is more generous, and the softness and hardness of the seats are moderate, but the middle position does not provide independent headrests, and safety and comfort need to be improved.
dynamical system
The Geometry A is equipped with a drive motor with a maximum output of 150 kW and a peak torque of 310 Nm. In terms of endurance, it is equipped with a ternary lithium battery pack with a capacity of 70 kWh and a cruising range of 600 km.
QinPro new energy power matched the maximum output power of 100 kilowatts, the peak torque of 180 Nm drive motor, the endurance is equipped with a capacity of 53.1 kWh ternary lithium battery, pure electric mileage of only 401 km, and the gap with geometry A is still relatively large.
Uncle Che summed up
As a familiar face in the eyes of domestic consumers, Geometry A and Qin Pro New Energy have a high reputation, of which Geometry A has completed the restructuring last year, the improvement of vehicle product strength is very obvious, and Qin Pro New Energy has not been remodeled for a long time, and the product strength has lagged behind. Through the comparison of the above aspects, we can see that geometry A occupies an absolute advantage in terms of functional configuration, power system performance and endurance in the case of lower price than QinPro new energy, and the practicality and cost performance of the whole vehicle are higher, so in this round of showdown, the uncle is more recommended in geometry A.
