No three-cylinder machine can control the domestic market? But there are exceptions!
Recently, some models have been remodeled, the appearance of the movement is a small thing, they have one thing in common is "changed heart". The three-cylinder model "collectively" replaced the four-cylinder, and the technical flow finally lost to the market, this time we will take a look at the cars that use the three-cylinder engine, how is it now?
Fox is about to make a change, and Ford finally can't hold on
Once known as the "first car for young people", Fox sold only 22857 units in 2021, and it should be known that the Shadow Leopard, which was only listed in August 2021, sold 43772 units by the end of the year, and the "spirit guy" killed the "sports old cannon" so easily, and I have to say that the three-cylinder machine is definitely the first work. And then the hindsightEditional Ford finally accepted the fact that the Chinese market is "not to be seen" three-cylinder machine, and will launch a 1.5T four-cylinder Focus. According to the declaration chart, the revised Fox uses a 1.5T four-cylinder engine code-named CAF479WQ6, with a maximum horsepower of 177Ps, which also equals the Shadow Leopard and rival Civic, so those who say that Fox must buy four cylinders, are you ready?
Geely three-cylinder family, the value of the face value is "delayed" series by the machine
The car that was "promoted" at the same time as the revamped Fox also has Geely's three-cylinder series, including Binrui, Binyue and Icon. All three models will feature a B plus 1.5T four-cylinder engine with a maximum horsepower of 181Ps. Personally, I think that on the personality design icon can rank in the top three of all Geely models, this set of design should meet the aesthetics of most young people for science fiction and power, while the interior design is not "lame", coupled with the space advantage brought by the Founder shape, it should be an ideal car for young people who pursue the trend, but it only sold 15540 vehicles in 2021, what does this mean? Instructions do not recognize three cylinders, regardless of age!
Lynk & Co 03, timely stop loss cast brilliant
If you don't say how people can become the "light of domestic goods", in fact, as early as 2018, when Lynk & Co 03 was listed, it was a full three-cylinder, but Lynk & Co soon realized that the main sport of Lynk & Co 03 all three cylinders absolutely can not meet the needs of consumers, so in 2019 not only launched the current domestic performance car "shoulder handle" Lynk & Co 03+, but also launched 2 models equipped with 2.0T four-cylinder engines, so that directly and smoothly solved a lot of problems because of the three-cylinder "face" problem for Lynk & Co 03 Hesitate to order the problem, and the Lynk & Co 03 department in 2022 results is 76461 units.
SAIC-GM, two hands is strong
GM brand can be said to be a strong recommendation of the domestic three-cylinder engine, deep ploughing three-cylinder engine for many years of GM for this advanced technology is very confident, whether it is Buick or Chevrolet, almost 100,000 models have used three-cylinder engine. Although it is still relatively reliable after years of testing in the market, GM has been forced to make some adjustments. Adjustment provides two solutions, the first is that the current Buick and Chevrolet part of the three-cylinder model to add a light mixing system, which makes the driving texture improve at the same time can continue to save fuel to a certain extent, the most important thing is that with the light mixing of this "high-tech" blessing, people's rejection of the three-cylinder machine seems to have really alleviated some, and sure enough, scientific and technological progress has created the development of the times. The second is a more secure program given by Buick, adding a model version to the Sub-Model Buick Yinglang Series in sales, providing a 1.5L four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, the front of the light mix joined to unplug some of the groups who hesitated for the three cylinders, and the second plan directly eliminated the three-cylinder "resister", and the two hands were ready to play beautifully.
Ideal ONE, don't drive, nothing
To say that the sales king of mid-size SUVs, Highlander can definitely dominate the list for a long time, but since the emergence of the ideal ONE, this hegemon has not been stable. Ideal ONE has sold more than 10,000 yuan for many consecutive months, and it is only a model to single out the entire new force of car manufacturing, but in fact, the ideal ONE's extended-range engine is also a three-cylinder. How come so many people recognize three cylinders at this point? Believe this is your question now. The ideal ONE's drive form has been out of the tradition, its three-cylinder extended range engine is only used for power generation, and does not directly provide power, which makes it unnecessary to show torque imbalance during driving like a fuel vehicle, and the jitter and noise at idle speed and low speed are much smaller. At the same time, because it is converted into electrical energy through the engine, it also has a good performance in terms of energy consumption. Think of it this way, because it is not directly involved in the power output, people pay much less attention to whether the ideal ONE is using a three-cylinder fuel car than the three-cylinder fuel car.
After a large number of market "tests", many car companies have clearly realized the "resistance" of Chinese consumers to the three-cylinder machine, but it seems that there are still some car companies that "do not believe in evil", and then I will also talk to you about which car companies prefer to "face difficulties" and why the Chinese people are so "resistant" to three-cylinder cars.
