Since the listing of GAC Trumpchi Shadow Leopard, the heat has not decreased, and even reached the monthly sales of more than 10,000 results, which is enough to make its compact car market stand firm, but also let many consumers see the strength of GAC Trumpchi. So while the iron was hot, GAC Trumpchi launched a mid-term revamped GA6 model, although positioned as a medium-sized car, but the price of more than 100,000 yuan, compared with today's popular joint venture models of the same level is even nearly half lower, but close to the price range of compact cars such as Volkswagen Sagittarius. So, the question is, just need the price of the A-class car to buy the Trumpchi GA6, compared to the benchmark Volkswagen Sagittarius A-class car, in addition to the inherent space advantage, will there be any better performance in terms of product strength? Let's take a look.
Compared with the "Little Passat", the "Big Mouth" Trumpchi GA6 is still atmospheric
The appearance of the car is bound to be the primary factor affecting the purchase of a car, and we are not unfamiliar with the appearance of the new GAC Trumpchi GA6, which is basically no different from the current model. The most recognizable appearance is the polygonal lateral grille, which occupies most of the area of the front face and is integrated with the headlights on both sides, which not only looks stylish and atmospheric, but also widens the body size in visual effects. Two waistlines are designed on the side of the body, one from the front headlights to the top of the taillights, and one creates a crease under the door, adding a sharp feeling to the calm tone. The style of the rear is relatively simple, and the through-type taillights and chrome trim above constitute the main design elements of the rear. It is worth mentioning that the new Trumpchi GA6 has added a gray car paint color to choose from, which is also the only change for the appearance after this revision.
In addition to the shape of Trumpchi GA6 is not unfamiliar, we are also familiar with the appearance of volkswagen sagittarius, after all, the nesting doll played the most slippery is Volkswagen, the design language of the high-end model Passat is delegated to the revamped Sagittarius, replaced by the iconic dot-matrix grille, which is enough to lay its market heat. Overall, the appearance of the car is naturally a love for radish greens, and the speed after the "face change" has more high-end atmosphere, while trumpchi GA6 still maintains the style of the past atmosphere.
The price of the new GA6 remains unchanged, and the dual screen is more valuable than Sagitar
Entering the car, although Volkswagen adopts the latest design style in the interior of Sagitar, equipped with popular design elements such as suspended central control screen, multi-functional digital steering wheel and through-channel air conditioning outlet, compared with GAC Trumpchi GA6, it seems to be slightly insufficient in terms of scientific and technological atmosphere and luxury. The interior of the new Trumpchi GA6 is still about the same as the current style, the most eye-catching in addition to the 12.3-inch large double screen on the high-end model, as well as a large number of wooden trim panels in the center console area, full of technology and quite distinctive, in addition to the chrome trim and black paint decoration in the details will enhance the luxury of the car to a higher level.
In terms of configuration, as the top priority of the gagagagaga revamp of GAC, it has not only streamlined the model to three models, but also made great upgrades in terms of safety configuration and driving comfort. Under the premise of unchanged price, in addition to upgrading the central control screen to 10.25 inches, the "Elite Edition" also adds the front side airbag and the cruise control function, the "Deluxe Edition" also adds LED headlights, front and rear side airbags and car air purifiers and other functions, while the high-end "Premium Edition" has more 360-degree panoramic images, one-button lifting and lowering of the whole car window and other functions. Compared with the Volkswagen Sagittarius "DSG Beyond Edition" with similar prices, the Trumpchi GA6 "Premium Edition" also has more lane departure warning, full-speed adaptive cruise, OTA upgrade and automatic air conditioning, from lighting, seat comfort, to safety and technology level, Trumpchi GA6 has shown a higher level.
Are all 1.5T, Sagitar emphasizes fuel saving?
As for the body size, due to the difference in the market positioning of Trumpchi GA6 and Sagitar itself, the space is naturally more spacious as a B-class car Trumpchi GA6, and there is no need to repeat too much, compared to the more worth discussing is the 1.5T engine on the two cars. For Volkswagen's 1.5T engine, we have long been looking forward to, although there is no improvement in power, but it has been optimized to reduce fuel consumption and improve efficiency, and this time it will be installed on the revamped Sagittarius, presumably there should be a lot of attention after the listing. The engine has a maximum power of 160 horsepower, a maximum torque of 250 N·m, a fuel consumption of as low as 5 liters per 100 kilometers, and is matched with a 7DCT gearbox.
For GAC Trumpchi, the shadow leopard with sporty performance cars out of the circle has laid a good market foundation, and also allowed consumers to have positive recognition of its power technology. As a higher positioning Trumpchi GA6, not only the materials in the car, as well as functional configuration and other aspects than the shadow leopard higher level, at the same time the power inherits the excellent genes of the shadow leopard, its 1.5T engine, the maximum power of 169 horsepower, the maximum torque of 265N ·m, showing a more powerful power output than sagittarius, but the minimum fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is 6.3L. In addition, the 6AT gearbox matched by Trumpchi GA6 is more reliable than the 7DCT in terms of reliability and durability, and from this point of view, the Trumpchi GA6 is more suitable for family cars for urban transportation. It can be seen that the two cars can be said to have their own advantages in terms of power, Sagitar has a very good fuel economy, 100 kilometers of fuel consumption can save nearly 1.3L compared to Trumpchi GA6, and trumpchi GA6 on the 1.5T engine strong power performance on the shadow leopard can also spy one or two, power output is better than Sagitar.
Write at the end
From the perspective of price, GAC Trumpchi GA6 in the face of the A-class car hot selling Volkswagen Sagittarius, in addition to the inherent space advantages, after the redesign also showed excellent strength in safety and comfort. However, compared with Volkswagen's 1.5T engine, although the Trumpchi GA6 is slightly deficient in fuel economy, it is understandable considering the size of its medium-sized car and the slightly dominant power output. Overall, the product strength of the new Trumpchi GA6 is very worthy of recognition, and the fire of shadow leopard has unconsciously raised the popularity of GAC Trumpchi a lot, which will also be of great help to the future Trumpchi GA6 in the market.
