It is not difficult to find that every year domestic cars will launch some heavy-level models, whether in terms of sales or word of mouth. Especially in the past two years, with the accumulation of technology to a certain extent, there are some new cars in the field of pure trams and fuel vehicles that can be taken. For example, this "civilian super run" Trumpchi Shadow Panther, known as the 100,000-level "civilian supercar", broke through 100 seconds in 6.95 seconds, faster than the Civic.
Gac Trumpchi Shadow Leopard is positioned like the Civic, which is also a compact coupe, launched in August 2021, and has already received the attention of many riders before it is listed. The pricing range is 983-13.18 million, counting the purchase tax, the entry-level version is only in the early 100,000 years, while the Honda Civic landing with close performance is almost more than 150,000, so in terms of cost performance, Trumpchi Shadow Leopard still maintains a consistently high standard. Of course, from the price, it can only be seen that the price of this car is relatively close to the people, but whether it is worth starting in the end, you have to understand it to know.
The appearance design of shadow leopard is extremely radical, actively embracing the aesthetics of young people. According to the design team, the design of this set of exteriors is inspired by fighter jets and beasts of prey, the overall line is smooth, the front face is a straight waterfall blackened net, the side lights are like fangs when lit, and the concave air intake shape, flat front, all make this car very postmodern texture. The rear of the car adopts a bilateral four-out exhaust hole and a slippery back shape.
The side adopts double five-spoke wheels, 225mm width 18-inch Giti tires, the tire bias is comfortable and quiet, which also shows that Trumpchi Shadow Leopard is still very sensitive to the market. What most young people really like is the sporty look, not the noise of hard tires, although harder tires are more wear-resistant and more suitable for rougher driving. If you really like to play with cars, you can choose to change the tires later. Equipped with a high-performance multi-piston braking system, the braking distance is only 39.18 meters. The wind resistance coefficient of the whole vehicle is 0.26Cd, while the wind resistance coefficient of the Tenth Generation Civic is about 0.29Cd.
The interior is currently a more popular dual screen design, suspended central passage, to the main driver of the sense of surround is more obvious. Carbon fiber panels and soft fabrics have been added to the car, which has no sense of cheapness at all. Flat-bottom three-frame multi-function steering wheel, LCD instrument panel and LCD central control screen are all 10.25 inches. The car machine supports voice control recognition, multimedia, navigation, and adds an infrared/visual camera to the A-pillar inside the vehicle, supporting face recognition and fatigue driving tips. Support keyless entry and one-click start, front row has mobile phone wireless charging function, car machine OTA upgrade, support gesture control, Car Networking, L2 level intelligent assisted driving, full speed adaptive cruise, etc.
The body size is 4700*1850*1432mm, the wheelbase is 2736mm, and the standard compact model size. Front and rear monosus suspension structure with multiple connecting rods in front macpherson alone. The main co-pilot has electric adjustment, the main driver has more high and low adjustment and waist support, which is more conducive to different body types of drivers, and the fit to the waist is better, and it will not be too tired after running long distances. The front row also supports seat heating and has an electric memory function. The back space also performed well, and the 175cm tall occupants still had more than 2 punches of legroom after sitting in the back row. The floor in the rear also doesn't have a central aisle that is too prominently raised, so it doesn't look too cramped even when fully loaded.
The whole series is equipped with GAC's Julang power 1.5T turbo engine, the maximum power is 130KW, the peak torque is 270N.m, matching the 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, the linear acceleration is 6.95 seconds to break the hundred, faster than the Civic, while the comprehensive fuel consumption of THE NEDC is only 5.7L/100km, and the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption is only 5.7L/100km. At present, the 11th-generation Civic measurement of 1.5T takes 8.1 seconds to achieve a speed of breaking 100 per hour, and there is still a gap compared with the Shadow Leopard. The engine can reach the maximum torque speed at the beginning of 1500 rpm, the power is early, the fuel label 92 gasoline, the use of direct injection in the cylinder fuel supply mode. The engine also has a unique jubrand power efficient combustion system, which optimizes the intake tract and piston roof of the combustion chamber, improving combustion efficiency and combustion speed, which is obviously helpful for power compression and fuel economy optimization.
On the whole, the advantages of GAC Trumpchi Shadow Leopard are still very obvious, the appearance is radical in line with the aesthetic concept of young people, the interior material is not cheap, it is very thick, the configuration is rich, the space inside the car is wide, the second row of riding texture is also guaranteed, the power is abundant, and the fuel consumption is not high. The only small flaw is probably that this car, as a new model launched last year, has not yet undergone sufficient historical precipitation. But this is not a big problem, BYD QinPULS DMi was also released last year, and now it has grown into the top pillar of domestic cars and gained a firm foothold in the field of new energy. The Trumpchi Shadow Leopard was released in August last year, and by the end of the year, it also won more than 40,000 units of sales, which is not a bad achievement, so let us wait and see its future performance.
