It is undeniable that the achievements of independent brands in the past two years are indeed amazing, and the product quality and technical gold content have delivered satisfactory answers. Among them, in the field of domestic users' favorite SUVs, the second-generation Trumpchi GS8, which has a large space and high popularity selling points, compared with the "technical science and engineering man" StarWay Lanyue, how should we choose?
Appearance comparison: the new Trumpchi GS8 atmospheric fashion, star road to the moon to pursue a sense of refinement
After the market test of the previous generation of products, Trumpchi GS8 has become the product vanguard of today's GAC Trumpchi brand, and the second generation of the new GS8 is a combination of previous large space, high-quality product highlights, two sets of different styles of front grille shape is closer to the distance with young consumers, the appearance performance is commendable.
As a strategic product of Chery Automobile's impact on the high-end route, Xingtu Lanyue can be said to not only gather the latest and most cutting-edge technology and technology of Chery Group, product quality, brand marketing, etc. are also a new point of view of independent high-end brands, so at the level of appearance, Xingtu Lanyue has a relatively generous front face modeling design, a large-size horizontal front grille and two side headlights are connected, and the overall visual effect is very eye-catching, of course, the recognition after the headlights are lit is also particularly eye-catching.
Back to the side and rear of the Trumpchi GS8, it can be seen that the new car as a whole continues to use the design concept of the previous generation of models, but the effect is more rounded and coordinated, and the relatively straight C and D columns indicate a very spacious interior space in the car, and the overall appearance of the appearance caters to the aesthetics of young consumers, while compared with the increase in size of the previous generation, the temperament and sense of burly are very eye-catching.
In terms of Xingtu Lanyue, the side of the new car adopts a design that runs through the waistline, more eye-catching wheel arches and large-size wheel rim shapes, and also successfully creates a relatively hard off-road style, in addition, unlike the new Trumpchi GS8, Xingtu Lanyue also has a wider chrome trim strip in the details of the frame and side skirt outside the car window, with a total of two exhaust layouts on both sides, and the overall sense of luxury is satisfactory.

Coming to the interior, you can see that the new Trumpchi GS8 has created a scientific and technological atmosphere that young people like to see through two large-size car screens, and the emergence of a large number of soft materials and wood grain trim panels has further set off the sense of luxury and refinement, and the emergence of crystal electronic barriers can successfully attract the vast majority of young consumers.
In contrast, Xingtu Lanyue also focuses on the sense of luxury and technology, the dual screen design of the center console part reflects the sense of technology very intuitively, and the details such as wood grain trim panels, diamond-shaped stitching process door panels and seats highlight the full sense of refinement, which is more attractive than the new Trumpchi GS8.
Configuration comparison: The practicality of Xingtu Lanyue is good, and the smart sincerity of Trumpchi GS8 is more eye-catching
For young consumers with a budget of 250,000, the practicality and richness of the configuration is particularly important.

In addition, from the actual scene of consumer car purchase and car use, we selected the Trumpchi GS8 dual engine four-wheel drive premium version with similar pricing and the Starway Lanyue 400T four-wheel drive Xingzun Pro version for comparison, and through the highlight configuration differentiation comparison, it can be seen that the StarWay Lanyue has 64-color atmosphere lights, LED fog lights and turn assist lights, SONY brand speakers and one-click tuning of the co-driver's seat ", while Trumpchi GS8 supports matrix geometric multi-beam headlights, Gesture control and rear seat electric reclining, etc., the configuration practicality is equally divided, but the comprehensive performance of intelligence, obviously Trumpchi GS8 is more dominant.
Spatial comparison: Trumpchi GS8 has a strong sense of space, and the star path is to meet the needs of the family
Based on the advantages of the previous generation of models, the new Trumpchi GS8 after the replacement also further expands the space advantage, of which from the data point of view, the length, width and height of the selected model version are 5015mm/1950mm/1780mm, the wheelbase is 2920mm, in addition to the height of the car, the size is more dominant than the StarWay, which means that the new car is more suitable for potential users who like large space.
In contrast, the length, width and height data of the selected Starway Lanyue version reached 4970mm/1940mm/1788mm respectively, and the wheelbase of 2900mm was 20mm less than that of the new Trumpchi GS8, but from the actual riding experience, the second row of seats of the new car was basically satisfactory, and the seven-seat version could also solve the needs of most travel scenarios.

In terms of Xingtu Lanyue, after the new car is equipped with a new Xingnuo power 2.0TGDI high-power engine, the overall performance and driving control hardcore sense are very obvious, the speed can continue to erupt between 1750rpm-4000rpm, 400 Nm peak torque, 5500rpm can output a maximum power of 192 kilowatts, of course, in the second generation of intelligent thermal management system, 350bar ultra-high voltage direct injection system and other hardware support, Xingtu Lanyue's zero hundred acceleration performance is only 8 seconds. This is undoubtedly a great benefit for young sports enthusiasts.
In terms of engine technology, it can be said that Trumpchi GS8 and Xingtu Lanyue have their own characteristics and different styles, so after comparison, it is not difficult to find that the Xingtu Lanyue with the aura of "independent science and engineering man" is obviously more dominant in performance, so this will also be the key to impressing consumers who like to drive, and the Trumpchi GS8 with high value, large space and excellent fuel economy is obviously more suitable for young families.
