In the past, you can say that domestic brands have been catching up with joint venture brands in the mainstream competitive market. Nowadays, with the rise of domestic brands, more and more domestic models have become the first choice for consumption. Under the trend of surging market competition, many joint venture brands are also constantly supplementing model products to expand segments.
And the new cars in these joint venture brands that we want to talk about today, their appearance is the same as the competitive relationship with the popular domestic SUVs such as the Haval H6 on the market. Are they a recommended new car option within the same spending budget?
With Toyota's strong Japanese brand audience influence, Fenglanda has attracted much attention before it was listed. Its official guidance price of 12.58-16.98 million makes many Toyota fans think that this is a real conscience price. At the same time, the Fenglanda, as a new model, has also become the entry-level product of the Toyota brand in the compact SUV market.
If you think you can buy a Toyota brand in your early 120,000s, you may wish to take a look at the performance of the low-end version. One-click start, keyless entry, automatic air conditioning and other functions that have become standard on domestic brands are not available on Fenglanda.
And LED headlights, seat electric adjustment, reversing radar and other conventional configurations are only available in the medium and high-end versions.
In other words, considering the consumption characteristics of the configuration and use level, Toyota Fenglanda actually dominates the consumption of medium and high-end models, and perhaps the real consumption threshold of Fenglanda is still in the price market of about 150,000.
The 2.0L+CVT power combination has a maximum output of 171 hp and a peak torque of 205 Nm. On the power book data, the front Lanta is no different from the higher positioning Oflanda. However, having said that the budget of 150,000 can choose the power version of 2.0T of popular domestic brands such as Haval H6, how do you choose between here?
After ford collar opened the Jiangling Ford civilian SUV market, last year Jiangling Ford successively launched a very cost-effective Lingyu, and in the first quarter of 2022, Jiangling Ford will launch a new SUV Lingrui. The new car is currently expected to launch three configuration versions in the mode of opening the pre-sale mode.
Although Ford's body size data has not yet been officially announced, the Ford Collar is positioned as a mid-size SUV with a 5-seat layout. The seat layout is more in line with the current consumer audience's consumer demand for commuting and regular home transportation.
Lingrui's interior cockpit presents a simple and warm home atmosphere, and the design of the double screen also gives a full sense of technology. In terms of configuration, Ford's own Co-Pilot360 Intelligent Mobility Assistance System and AR Real-Life Navigation and Tencent TAI3.0 Automotive Intelligent System have made Ruiling biased towards the needs of the current young consumer audience in the interpretation of driving texture.
In terms of power, Rui Ling will be equipped with an EcoBoost 1.5T engine, with a maximum output of 170 horsepower and a peak torque of 260 Nm, and its power level reflects the strong power characteristics of the American SUV. The drivetrain is matched by a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Compared with the brand's medium-sized and large-sized SUV Lingyu, Ford Ruiling's consumption positioning is a grade. The consumption threshold of Lingyu starts at 169,800, which seems to confirm from the side that Ford Ruiling will target the competitive market below 150,000 in the price market in the future.
In the price point market of 150,000 yuan, the SUV models laid out by the joint venture brand are mainly small SUVs, including Jinke from Dongfeng Nissan. Its official guidance price of 11.98-13.78 million makes Jinke look less expensive in the face of competition at the same level, and the preferential quota of 10,000+ in the terminal market also makes Jinke have a cost-effective statement.
Chinese consumers have always liked the large space of SUVs, although the small SUV makes the space a short board for the guests. However, Jinke reflects a great value for money in the performance of the configuration level.
As long as you choose not the introductory market version, LED headlights, keyless entry/start, 360-degree panoramic image, cruise control and other conventional electronic configuration functions are all given to you. In addition, many active/passive safety assistance systems, reversing side warning, BOSE audio and other high-end functions also appear on the top model.
You should know that the top flagship version of the guide pricing is only 137,800, if you want to choose a high configuration and brand reputation of SUV below 150,000, then Nissan Jinke will be a good choice.
The power combination of 1.5L + CVT is a conventional combination of "Japanese power", and the maximum output of 122 horsepower is not too aggressive but sufficient. Thanks to the application of TCV, e-VTC, EGR and other technologies, Jinke also reflects the economically applicable transportation standards, and its comprehensive fuel consumption level under NEDC conditions is as low as 5.6L/100km.
Indeed, around the budget of 150,000, there are not a few choices for domestic brands. However, with the entry competition of joint venture brands, the competition in the middle and downstream markets in the SUV field is increasingly surging. The above three models have their own advantages in product competition, in the face of those mainstream domestic SUV models, do you think that the above three cars have the right to compete?
