Some people say that this is an era of "looking at the face", and I have to admit that the value of appearance is indeed a plus. Today, when inner volume is popular, it is not an exaggeration to ask for a more comfortable, practical and better-looking scooter. The two cars recommended today have been recognized by most consumers in terms of appearance, in addition to "beautiful", in other aspects, do they have a "sweet" place?
Beijing Hyundai-Elantra "sweet" in security configuration
Manufacturer guidance price 9.98-14.18 million yuan
As the earliest model introduced by Beijing Hyundai, Elantra once won a "territory" for itself in the fiercely competitive A-segment car market by virtue of its advantages in space. However, in recent years, Elantra can be described as a subversive change, with a wave of operating circles in appearance.
It is no exaggeration to say that the beauty of Elantra is really 360 degrees without dead angles. In order to create a better sporty style, the ultra-low front design is adopted, and the design of the grille is called "parametric gem facet", if we really do not understand this official term, we understand it as a combination of different triangles. Led headlights feature automatic headlights, height adjustability, and delayed shut-off.
Rich lines are applied on the sides of the body, showing a texture like a gemstone cut, especially under the refraction of light, the body presents a very beautiful three-dimensional feeling. The design of the rear of the vehicle is bumpy, and the through-type H-shaped lights make its tail visually extend its width.
Compared with the exterior stunning, the interior design of Elantra is relatively simple. The driver-centric, immersive cockpit design makes it more comfortable for the driver to view and operate the central control display. The design of the touch-type air conditioning control buttons allows the minimalist style of the central control part to be retained. Elantra put a lot of effort into safety. First of all, the number of airbags and curtains in all models is the same, no matter which price point you choose, it will not let you "discount" on passive safety. The BAC blind zone collision avoidance system can monitor the adjacent vehicles behind the side and will take warnings and brakes when there is a risk of collision. Collision injuries are effectively mitigated or avoided. The BVM blind spot display system can display the image behind the vehicle side on the dashboard when the vehicle changes lanes, reducing the safety hazard caused by the visual blind spot. The Irant has a wheelbase of 2720mm, a body length of 4680mm, a width of 1810mm and a height of 1415mm. The body layout based on the third-generation i-GMP platform shows a spacious space beyond the level, even the trunk is very good.
The newly launched 2022 Elantra is available in two different power versions, the 1.5L naturally aspirated version with 115 hp and the 1.4T version with 140 hp, respectively, with a CVT continuously variable transmission and a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission. Among them, the 2022 1.5L CVT TOP flagship version with a manufacturer guidance price of 133,800 yuan provides more, safer and more comfortable configurations including full-speed adaptive cruise, 360-degree panoramic image, parallel assist, rear seat proportional reclining, and exterior mirror heating under the premise of ensuring better cost performance.
Changan Mazda-Onksela "Sweet" in delicate handling
Manufacturer guidance price 11.59-18.99 million yuan
Although Mazda's "soul movement" design has been around for many years, with the fine-tuning of details, it is still not aesthetically tiring to this day. Adhering to the latest "Soul Movement 2.0" design concept, the air intake grille area of The Axela has been increased, and the chrome decorative strips have wrapped two-thirds of the matrix mid-grid. The LED headlights are like a pair of sharp eyes, and the whole series is equipped with the delay off and height adjustment functions of the headlights as standard.
The shape of the body side is very simple, and the reason for the beautiful shape is that Mazda's unique paint spraying technology is in harmony with the overall body proportions. Mazda's unique "Craftsman Takumuri" coating technology can well highlight the brightness and luster of the paint. The shape of the tail still follows the Japanese aesthetic simplicity of the design style, and the shape is relatively full. The taillights, like the headlights, use circular light clusters that are as vibrant as pupils. The length, width and height of the body are 4662mm*1797mm*1445mm, and the wheelbase is 2726mm, which is the best in the new generation of Mazda in terms of wheelbase and body width size compared with previous generations.
Axelas's interior design is a classic. Some people may think that it lacks some sense of technology, but there is no lack of praise that "can evoke some good memories of your classic models of the past". The center control display is located above the center console and can support CarPlay and CarLife functions, so that the multimedia software extension problem is solved. The retention of the mechanical instrument panel has greatly improved the sports atmosphere in the car. Axelas does a great job of tranquility. While reducing the hole in the floor of the car, the horn is separated from the door panel, which further ensures the sound insulation effect of the door.
Handling has always been Mazda's strength, and even A-class cars can show a more comfortable driving experience in their class. Onxella has upgraded the acceleration vector control system and added a new positive torque enhancement system to take advantage of the 13:1 ultra-high compression ratio natural suction cylinder direct injection technology, and through a number of technological innovations such as the new concave top piston design, three-stage high-pressure direct injection technology and layered combustion control technology, a more linear power output has been realized. It is worth noting that the position of the accelerator pedal and the brake pedal is not a common parallel placement, but a V-shaped position is adopted, which can use the muscles of the calf belly more effectively by making the fulcrum of the pedal closer to the position of the driver's heel, reducing the burden of alternately pedaling the accelerator and brakes that will not give the ankles, making the operation easier and less fatigue.
The new Unxella is equipped with a naturally aspirated engine in 1.5L and 2.0L displacements, with a maximum power of 117 hp and 158 hp respectively, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. Don't feel that some driving pleasure has been lost because there is no turbocharging intervention, first of all, we must firmly believe that Mazda can make the dynamic performance of the vehicle delicate and smooth, and secondly, the balanced and natural driving performance is also very easy to get the favor of consumers. At present, there are 11 configurations of the 2021 Unxella, the configuration of driving assistance and active \ passive safety is not much different, consumers combine their own budgets, need better power choice 2.0L version, want to be more cost-effective to choose the 1.5L version, the budget is sufficient to consider the configuration that can increase comfort, such as the heating function of the exterior mirrors, electric sunroof, etc.
The people evaluate the car
Neither Elantra nor Unxella are the mainstays of the A-Class, but with their outstanding characteristics, they have always had an enduring performance in the market. Although the two cars are close in size, the overall performance of the space is slightly advantageous, and the safety configuration is more comprehensive, which is relatively suitable for the needs of family cars. The Handling of the Unxella is better in its class and is more suitable for consumers who demand driving quality.
