Speaking of MPV, the Buick GL8 is a model that has to be mentioned. And the Korean car basically does not have too many MPV to choose from, for a very simple example, Kia Kahua entry-level version is priced at nearly 290,000 yuan, do you think it is sincere enough?
Such pricing is indeed a bit high, and the result is that domestic consumers are not particularly concerned about Kia Kahua. In fact, the Korean car also has an MPV, the sales are very good, and the price is also very low, this model is from the hyundai Kustu.
The price of hyundai Kustu is not high, the manufacturer's guidance price is 16.98 to 21.88 million, as a medium and large MPV, its pricing can be much cheaper than Agahua. It is clear that Hyundai Kustu's low-price strategy has been successful, with sales of about 2200 units at the end of last year, while Honda Odyssey's monthly sales in the same period did not exceed even 1500. You should know that the Honda Odyssey is an evergreen model, and the Kustu is an MPV that has not been on the market for a long time. It is clear that this Kustu model has great potential to become a "dark horse".
Kustu is obviously taking a fashion-type line, and GL8 business appearance is simply two designs, the front face is the most popular modern frameless design, and the headlights and intake net are completely integrated together, and the visual sense is more prominent.
On the side of the model, the new car is matched with double electric sliding doors, plus privacy glass, irregular sports wheels, and IKEA.
As for the tail design, it is also more prominent, equipped with a through-type taillight design. Hyundai Kustu's body data is also relatively strong, the length, width and height are 4950/1850/1734mm, the wheelbase is 3055mm, and this model is equipped with a seven-seat design.
The interior design of the modern Kustu is also relatively fashionable to me personally, and mercedes-Benz C has many similarities, such as the central control screen using the design of the suspension screen, and the use of tilt angle collocation, visual senses are more modern and luxurious. The new car also eliminated the gun barrel dashboard, and replaced it with a more intuitive, clearer suspension LCD screen design, with a voice recognition control system and a leather multi-function steering wheel, which is more easy to use.
Even if you are a novice, you don't have to worry too much about driving problems when buying this model, the new car uses a button-type electronic gear, so that you will not hang up the wrong gear, and it is more comfortable to drive.
The second row of seating space is more comfortable, with two independent seats, and the configuration of Korean cars has always been relatively generous, the rear row has heating and ventilation functions, and the whole series is equipped with rear cup holders.
Looking at the power system of this model, the engines are 1.5T and 2.0T, of which the power of 1.5T is also very strong, the maximum power is 170 horsepower, the peak torque is 253N·m, and it is matched by the eight-speed automatic. The 2.0T engine has a maximum power of 236 horsepower and a peak torque of 353N·m, which is matched by an eight-speed automatic transmission. As for the seven-speed dry double-clutch transmission that many small partners are more worried about, it does not appear on this modern Kustu.
To say that the lack, this model does have shortcomings, its rear suspension is a torsion beam non-independent suspension, as a 200,000-class large 7-seat MPV, these deficiencies can you bear? Think about it, holiday family travel is still quite fragrant, these deficiencies you can indeed accept, right? And now most of the area is a flat road, the difference between the torsion beam suspension and the independent suspension is not very obvious.
