Emgrand
I believe that everyone is not unfamiliar, with super high cost performance, Emgrand has sold more than 200,000 yuan for many years, and it is also the best selling self-owned brand car in 2021.
On the last day of 2021, Geely Automobile brought its new compact sedan, the Emgrand L, and launched a total of 3 models, with an official price range of 9.39-10.99 million yuan. Emgrand L is based on BMA's global modular architecture, and its purpose is very clear, that is, to seize the market in the context of "consumption upgrade". So how did Emgrand L perform? Is it worth buying from nearly 100,000 yuan? This issue of Extreme Car Pickers gives you the answer.
Let's look at the advantages first
Compared with Emgrand, the higher price of Emgrand L will face more competition, in addition to its own brand, but also face competition from joint venture models such as Forres and Santana. Compared with competitors, the first advantage of the Emgrand L is the powertrain, which is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 104 kW (141 hp) and a maximum torque of 235 N·m, which is more responsive to start; matched by an 8-speed CVT transmission, smooth and economical.

Competitors generally use naturally aspirated engines, although stable, but the power is somewhat lacking, especially when high-speed overtaking, you even need to reserve space for speeding up in advance. It is worth mentioning that Emgrand L also offers four driving modes of economy, comfort, sport and intelligence, of which the smart mode can learn its own driving style and automatically switch driving modes according to different accelerator pedal openings.
Interior and exterior design is the second advantage of Emgrand L, and nowadays, young consumers have become the main force in car buying, and they are very concerned about whether this car can show their personality and do not want to be the same.
The design style of Emgrand L "Energy Storm" is very exaggerated, and the huge blackened front grille is very visually impactful, which is more in line with the tastes of young consumers today. It is worth mentioning that the front grille is made of ASA engineering plastic + metal powder material, which can also show a sparkling visual effect in the sun.
The through-line taillights are a highlight of the emgrand L rear, the light set is composed of 258 LED light beads, which are very recognizable and beautiful when lit. The chrome trim strip shape under the perimeter echoes the taillights, creating a good layering for the rear of the car as well.
The design of the interior of Emgrand L is very simple and regular, but the simplicity is not simple, the interior of Emgrand L integrates Chinese culture and modern technology energy elements, using Danqing blue and Liuyun white two kinds of contrast design, very charming.
In addition to the design, the interior materials of Emgrand L are very elaborate, using a large number of environmentally friendly and healthy materials such as zero odorous water-based adhesives, water-based leather, microfiber materials, etc., and are also equipped with a six-layer health purification circle composed of antibacterial steering wheel, vehicle-grade CN95 high-efficiency filter, AQS air quality management system, negative ion purifier, etc., to create a healthy and environmentally friendly cockpit environment, which is very rare in the same level.
Technology configuration is the third advantage of Emgrand L, this needless to say, at the moment who does not want their car to be more intelligent and convenient? Emgrand L series standard with 12.3-inch suspension central control screen, Geely Galaxy OS ecosystem, rear intelligent monitoring system, smart key remote control start, mobile APP remote control and other intelligent configurations. Among them, the Supreme model is also equipped with a newly upgraded L2 intelligent driver assistance system. In addition, Emgrand L also comes standard with FOTA cloud upgrades, which can achieve continuous online upgrades.
Talk about the inadequacies
Speaking of advantages, we are looking at the shortcomings of Emgrand L. Emgrand L's storage space is relatively lacking, there is only one cup holder in the front row, if two people in the front row buy a drink or coffee at the same time, one of them can only hold it, which is more inconvenient. Moreover, Emgrand L is not equipped with glasses cases, and wearing sunglasses in the summer is the habit of many people, but there are some things that should not be done without glasses boxes. In addition, the trunk of emgrand L is not regular, it is recommended that friends who pay attention to storage space come to the store to check it out in person.
Model recommendation
Emgrand L launched a total of 3 models this time, the author mainly promotes the premium type, the official price is 93,900 yuan. Although it is the lowest configuration in the whole series, the basic configuration is very rich, with an electric sunroof, a 12.3-inch central control screen, an electronic handbrake, full LED headlights, automatic air conditioning, etc., and the configuration performance is enough to meet the daily travel use, which is the most cost-effective model. And if you pay more attention to the experience and safety of the car, the 109,900-priced Supreme is more suitable for you.
summary:
Obviously, the overall performance of Emgrand L is better than that of Emgrand, which is more in line with the general trend of "consumption upgrading" and can bring users a better car experience. Compared with competitors, whether it is power, appearance or configuration, Emgrand L has a certain advantage, coupled with a starting price of 93,900 yuan, in general, Emgrand L is a model worth paying attention to.
