After watching the cookie-cutter ADV-style motorcycle, did you think it was amazing when you saw the Lifan KPT400? Such a bold design is also unique among domestic models, and behind this pioneering style design, we seem to see designers who let go of themselves.
Sci-fi "cyberpunk" wind
Coinciding with the tenth anniversary of the birth of the Lifan KP family, Lifan launched KPT400, from its entire appearance design style, it belongs to a relatively alternative existence, it can be said that it is unique in the current domestic model of the same level, and even called "flat head brother" by many netizens, Lifan called this style NEW WAVE.
NEW WAVE is Lifan's new design language, which translates to the style of the new wave of technology. So from the looks of it, the KPT400 is very eye-catching! The alternative approach is indeed in line with the current situation of Lifan, seeking common ground while reserving differences to create its own iconic products in order to regain its market position.
The only configuration in the class
The most eye-catching is this "flat head" headlight, so many netizens call it "flat head brother", three LED lights form a one-line arrangement, the daily running lights are distributed on the left and right sides. The adjustable tall windshield is also an indispensable feature of the RV model, and the boxy headlights and larger windshield look very stocky.
In order to comply with the positioning of the retired tour model, Lifan equipped the KPT400 with long-travel shock absorption, and the fork is equipped with an adjustment knob to support toolless manual adjustment, and the rear shock absorption also supports damping/preload adjustable. For a retired tour model that needs to ride around a variety of road conditions frequently, the adjustable shock absorption is like a tiger.
The original factory is equipped with a wind guard, a very good texture of brakes and clutch levers, all support the angle adjustment function, the newly designed backlit handlebar buttons, not the market flooded with universal modules, KPT400 in the details of the texture to create quite in place.
Since it is the main NEW WAVE style, KPT400 is naturally worthy of this appearance, the car is equipped with a keyless start system, integrated intelligent remote control key, electronic steering lock and vehicle power supply one-key start function, rather than the more common simple keyless start.
The large-size full-color TFT meter is another highlight of the KPT400, which has the functions of mobile phone projection screen, tire pressure detection, GSP navigation, maintenance tips, water temperature voltage display and so on. With Lifan's customized locomotive guard and dedicated mobile APP, it can realize vehicle positioning, interactive control, cycling social and other functions.
The specifications of the brakes are also very high, with front floating dual disc brakes + double four-piston brake calipers, rear single disc brakes + dual-piston brake calipers, with dual channel ABS as standard. The tires are equipped with a combination of turtle-back tires for the front 110/70R17 and rear 160/60R17, taking into account the use of urban roads and non-paved roads.
The thick full section of aluminum alloy exhaust reveals a strong sporty atmosphere, which is also in line with the positioning of the KPT400's travel model, and the thick swingarm can not see what the material is, but it can bring a very good visual effect in the look and feel.
New 400cc twin-cylinder power platform
The KPT400 is equipped with a DRF400 twin-cylinder water-cooled engine developed by Lifan itself, with a maximum power of 31.5kw/9500 rpm, a maximum torque of 35Nm/7500rpm, and a zero hundred acceleration of about 7 seconds. However, it is a pity that KPT400 is not equipped with the current popular sliding clutch, and I think the manufacturer should also consider increasing this configuration in the later stage.
Cost-effective personality choice
Lifan KPT400 smart edition price of 29980 yuan, three boxes of premium version price of 32980 yuan, compared to the same level of price similar competitors, KPT400 competitiveness, mainly reflected in the unique design and cost performance of this piece, want to find out in the domestic models similar style of models almost no, so if you pursue an alternative personality of the appearance, KPT400 will be the best choice.
Also in the pursuit of cost performance at this price point, Lifan KPT also has a configuration that surpasses the same level of models, whether it is adjustable shock absorption before and after, or a full-color instrument with rich functions, as well as a keyless starting system with a full sense of technology, which is a relatively rare specification in this level of models.
Lifan KPT400 as a holiday model, it is a low-key strength faction in the domestic model of the same level, while KPT400 can also let us see the change that Lifan is seeking, as a very scientific and technological travel model, KPT400 has brought us a lot of surprises, there are very few people who really dare to eat crabs, especially in this increasingly competitive environment, it is not easy to see such an innovative domestic model.
