"True Fragrance Law" Veyron Pro GS continues to be brilliant
- The appearance of the battle breath is full of back to the top
For reasons that are well known, the 2020 Willang Poor guy is out. After the listing of Weilang in 2015, in a few years, the "combination fist" formed with Yinglang can be described as fist to flesh, and it can win 10,000 to 20,000 units of sales every month. Buick must be unwilling, so at this year's Shanghai Auto Show, it brought a new appearance of Veyron, and announced that it replaced Veyron back into a four-cylinder engine and became a Veyron Pro, and also brought a very sporty Veyron Pro GS, and its appearance value was also greatly improved. Can it regain its former glory? Let's explore it today.
Veyron Pro GS is based on Veyron Pro, which belongs to the sports suite version, which adopts a full set of exclusive personalized sports suits, including the front lip, middle net, wheels, tail wing, rear bar and other parts are made of black components to highlight the sports atmosphere;
Front and rear surrounds, guard plates, side walls and other body components can be freely replaced, to meet the owner's personalized needs at the same time, but also into the DIY hands-on fun, so that the owner can easily create their own style;
The interior of the new car adopts the extended wing wrap-around interior style, and the sense of technology has also been greatly improved. A large number of horizontal lines greatly enhance the overall visual width; the color scheme of the red and black interior is also very dynamic and cool;
The Veyron Pro is SAIC-GM's first model to be equipped with an eighth-generation Ecotec 1.5T four-cylinder engine with a maximum power of 135 kW, a maximum torque of 250 Nm and an official acceleration time of 7.7s per 100 km/h.
The appearance is full of combat atmosphere
The Veyron Pro GS is based on the Veyron Pro and is a sports kit version with a more dynamic look than the regular version. It adopts a full set of exclusive personalized sports suits, including the front lip, mid mesh, wheels, tail, rear bar and other parts of the use of black components to highlight the sporty atmosphere, blackened roof and various details to further strengthen the sporty attributes of the whole car. The overall look is very dynamic.
By comparing the current King's Dominion of the Shuangtian compact sedan, we can find a very interesting common point, their wheelbase is amazingly consistent, not a point is 2700mm, it is not difficult to see, Buick also wants to use this model to break the leading position of the Shuangtian, as to whether it can be achieved, we can only patiently wait and see. In addition, in terms of body size, the new Veyron Pro GS also has certain advantages in terms of depot and car height, and relatively speaking, the driving space of veyron Pro GS is also the best performer of the three.
2 Interior materials, design, configuration have been upgraded
The new car adopts the extended wing wrap-around interior style, and the atmospheric and elegant lines extend from the central control area to the two sides of the doors, echoing the design of the winged headlights and flying wing grille. The center console also applies a multi-layer suspension design, the display layer, control layer, contact layer each partition is clear and clear, at the same time, the new car is equipped with a two-piece panoramic sunroof, the opening area of 900×842mm, the color of the red and black interior is also very dynamic and cool, and many small details are also very sporty.
The ride space is impressive
The increase in driving space is also a major selling point of the new car, which will move the front axle forward to the greatest extent possible, so it also leaves more space for the cockpit layout. Compared to Leiling's cramped space, the performance is much better.
The vital four-cylinder engine "True Fragrance"
The Veyron Pro is SAIC-GM's first model equipped with an eighth-generation Ecotec 1.5T four-cylinder engine, with a maximum power of 135 kW, a maximum torque of 250 Nm, and an official acceleration time of 7.7 seconds per 100 km/h, which is also very eye-catching in the same class. This engine can also be "incarnated" into different "variants" according to product requirements, different performance versions, which can be matched with 9-speed automatic transmission and CVT continuously variable gearbox in the future, and can also support 48V light mix, strong mix and plug-in mix systems. On the Veyron Pro it goes hand in hand with the CVT gearbox.
In addition, this engine also adopts the latest generation of controller chip (ECM), the computing power is increased by nearly 14%, the internal memory performance is improved by more than 33%, and for the first time, advanced cutting-edge control technologies such as neural networks and deep learning are applied to the engine control strategy, making the engine control system run more intelligently, more powerfully, and safer to use.
According to the official introduction, the eighth generation of Ecotec 1.5T engine also has a chic nickname - "Avatar Avatar Engine". The word "Avatar", derived from sanskrit, has the meaning of "avatar" and "sublimation", which is also in line with the positioning of the engine. It can be "incarnated" into different "variants" of performance versions according to product requirements, and can also support 48V light hybrid technology and strong mixing system, which can achieve comprehensive "sublimation" compared with the previous generation of engines.
Summary
From its positioning and comparison of various aspects, it can be inferred that the price of its new car should be closer to the price of Civic and Leiling, and the price of Civic is 119,900-16.99 million yuan, and the price of Leiling is 11.38-15.28 million yuan. In this price range, there are actually many strong opponents, such as the cheaper MG6, FAW Toyota's Corolla, etc., not to mention models such as Fit, so the turnaround battle that Veyron Pro or Veyron Pro GS wants to fight is actually quite difficult.
Now with this new four-cylinder engine, is the Veyron Pro a feather or a big win? I believe that we still have to wait for its further test ride test drive experience, only in this regard there is a more amazing performance and better results, I believe that we can successfully pass the pass, let us look forward to the wonderful performance of Veyron Pro.
