Consumers who choose MPV models often have household needs, especially when choosing a comfortable MPV, most of the time they think about their families. In the case of many family members, the conventional five-seater model can meet the limited riding conditions, so the 6-seater model is undoubtedly a better choice.
In the domestic automobile market, Wuling has always been building models with user needs as the core, and then many models under Wuling have been appreciated by users. However, at the same time of practicality, the appearance of the model also needs to follow the trend of the times to change the aesthetics, in order to meet the aesthetic concept of young consumer groups, a Wuling Capgemini should be born from time to time.
The emergence of this model breaks the limitations of Wuling's traditional car-making style, and as a model positioned in the field of MPV, Capgemini has different characteristics in both the detail design level and the structural design level. Capgemini's overall shape is more refreshing, different from the previous sleek design style of the Wuling family, and it is covered with three-dimensional lines on Capgemini's body.
The grille, including this model, also features a narrow and long silhouette, while the grille is richly lined with elements in the middle. The Wuling logo in the middle of the grille is also a metal chrome coating, which also symbolizes the limitations of the Wuling family in the design level of the model. And the headlights of the model also use a split structure to design, which increases the fashion and sports atmosphere after lighting.
The side of the body will look more slender, but the roof has a slight downward curve from front to back, so this model has a swooping posture from the side. In order to further meet the aesthetics of consumer groups, the model also adopts a suspended roof design, and the blackened coating is selected on the edges of the rear windows to enhance the atmosphere of technology.
In fact, this model from the side will still have a slight incongruity, the reason for the incongruity comes from the size of the wheel hub of the model, the wheel hub of this model is not very large, the whole series of models uniformly equipped with 18-inch wheels, but the model belongs to the large-scale visual effect, so the size of the wheel hub will appear relatively small.
From the rear of the model, it will be more like an SUV model, because the edges and corners at the rear of the car are relatively hard, and the taillights belong to the narrow and long design style, and the lampshade also shows a bulging design along the lateral three-dimensional line of the tail, with a slight sense of sharpness. Probably due to pricing limitations, the tailgate of this model is all traditional opening methods.
It is a 6-seater model with three rows of seats. But even with three rows of seats, the trunk can still hold 482 litres of space. Because its tailbox platform has been dug down, the platform will be recessed, which also means that the tailbox capacity has been excavated.
However, if the rear seat does not have a user to ride, the rear seat backrest can be put down, and then pulled backwards, so that the folded rear seat can be placed in the groove excavated by the tail box, and the entire widened tail box can have a flat platform, which will be very convenient for placing some travel essential items, and the tail box capacity at this time has 1514 liters.
When the third row of seats is lowered, you can see that the second row of seats is embedded with a slide rail that can support the two rows of seats to move back and forth. If the third row of seats is reclined and you don't need such a large space to put it, you can choose to move the second row of seats backwards so that the second row can have enough comfortable legroom.
summary:
Although Wuling Capgemini is a 6-seater model, according to its official words, the model is actually mainly a large family four-seater, which means that the car has a sufficiently spacious seating space in the case of four seats. The third row of seats plays an emergency role, so the space is not too spacious. Now most of the consumer groups that choose home MPV are more particular about the appearance of the model, and the breakthrough of Wuling Capgemini in the appearance level not only shows the styling design ability of Wuling, but also allows the consumer group to change the inherent impression of Wuling in the past.
