Xuanyi's sales volume in January 2022 ranked first again, once again pressing shanghai Volkswagen Langyi. Do you still feel strange about Xuan Yi's performance? And in the foreseeable future, Xuanyi will still maintain a strong sales force, the recent Xuanyi e-POWER in addition to the 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine version, but also for Xuanyi's potential customers to choose more choices, and the use of e-POWER powertrain Xuanyi, compared to the traditional model, how is the difference? Is it worth buying?
Xuanyi's shape is basically unable to fault anything, but there is not much to show, that is, the typical family car shape. In the early years, when Tianlai was selling well, many people would call Xuanyi a small tianlai, but with the decline of tianlai, Xuanyi, who also used V-Motion design elements, would no longer be called a mini tianli. And the new generation of Xuanyi is actually trying to have some small breakthroughs in styling, such as the updated LED headlights and the floating roof design of the C-pillar, although it is also used many times in other cars, but it appears on such a classic model as Xuanyi, or it is a bit refreshing.
On the Xuanyi e-POWER model, some sports kit designs have even been introduced, which may be related to the e-POWER model being more "strong" in performance, especially compared to the 1.6-liter naturally aspirated model. But such a kit may be more to attract young people, the promotion should still be mainly in the visual, the vehicle in the landing performance of the improvement should be almost nothing, this point, Xuan Yi has to learn a Trumpchi shadow leopard!
Xuanyi e-POWER's interior main body is actually a copy of the current Xuanyi, and the original old Xuanyi compared to the first Xuanyi, the interior reduction of the first Xuanyi is still relatively serious, from the previous pursuit of home comfort and provide Nissan large sofa, to the current style has become more concise and plastic, now Xuanyi seems to have no longer deliberately pursued a sense of luxury, especially in high-end models, but this naked display of cost-effective route is actually nothing bad, At least your expectations for Xuanyi are an economical and cost-effective family car.
However, in addition to the entry-level model, Xuanyi e-POWER is equipped with a 12.3-inch central control LCD screen as standard, and the actual operation experience is quite smooth, although the function is mainly limited to standard control, but in the Xuanyi car can have such a technology configuration can also be regarded as improving the cost performance.
Xuanyi e-POWER due to the uniqueness of the powertrain, in fact, did not make any adjustment to the overall layout of the body, therefore, whether it is the space of the rear seats or the size of the tail box, there was no adjustment, its length reached 4649 mm, the wheelbase reached 2712 mm, it can be said that such a size is a proper benchmark in the same class of cars, and, compared with the original Xuanyi, although the current Xuanyi is less luxurious, the wheelbase is still 2.7 meters, and the width of the rear seats is more friendly.
The biggest selling point of Xuanyi e-POWER must be this powertrain, which is, to put it bluntly, an extender that uses a battery pack with a smaller capacity (so small that it is negligible). All the 1.2-liter naturally aspirated three-cylinder machine does is charge the battery pack with a "transitional" nature and is powered by a 100 kW (136 hp) motor powered by a battery pack, which the vehicle is driven by. From this point of view, the e-POWER model is an electric vehicle, but because it is not plugged in, that is, the battery cannot be charged by external charging facilities, Xuanyi e-POWER can only hang the blue brand of fuel vehicles.
According to official data, Xuanyi e-POWER's NEDC 100 km comprehensive fuel consumption is 3.9 liters, which is indeed very shocking, if you are a relatively sensitive user of oil prices, this is undoubtedly competitive. However, considering that the power of this e-POWER is still converted from the 1.2L engine, and the weight of the e-POWER model is about 1.5 tons, compared with the Xuanyi 1.6-liter naturally aspirated model, it weighs nearly 200 kg, and perhaps the fuel consumption of 3.9 liters per 100 kilometers is the most ideal to measure, and if the e-POWER is used for high-speed long-distance travel, the fuel consumption may not be much lower than that of traditional fuel models.
So, from any point of view, if you want to start with Xuanyi, then Xuanyi e-POWER has become a model you can't get around, which one is the most worth buying? The low-end entry-level Xuanyi e-POWER is certainly not recommended, and the top of the 174,900 models is not the best choice, after all, many luxury configurations on this car are completely unnecessary for the family car model, landing close to 200,000, it is better to consider the next natural sound. And the model that includes almost all the comfort configuration and driving assistance, that is, the 155,900 super smart driving MAX version of xuanyi e-POWER may be the best choice.
