In the past, the road shakers can be said to be a small transparency in the market, although it is not unpopular in the off-road circle, but in the broader consumer market, few people will buy such an SUV at a price of 300,000 yuan. The reasons include many aspects, in the urban SUV camp, the road-shaker looks like a hardcore off-road vehicle. But in the eyes of players of hardcore off-road vehicles, the road-shaker is like an urban SUV, and the disadvantage of both ends is that both ends do not like this car very much.
However, recently Ford released a new official map of the road shakers, which may be able to help the car out of the current positioning dilemma. As a medium to large hardcore off-road SUV, it finally has the look of a hardcore off-road vehicle. At the same time, in order to meet the current market trend, Ford has also prepared a large number of intelligent configurations on this car, and if I look at it from my subjective point of view, it is more tempting to me anyway.
In terms of appearance, the road-shaker provides three solutions, namely the sports version, the titanium version and the platinum version, in addition to the product in addition to the appearance of the difference, there will be slight differences in configuration. As for which adjustments have been made? We need to wait until the car is officially launched before we can have an answer. But in any case, the styling design of these three models is more handsome than the previous road shakers, but it is not just a star and a half.
Although the car's interior also uses a large vertical screen, this time it makes a distinction between the screen area and the button area, instead of other Ford new products, the circular buttons are embedded in the screen, so that the interior of the road shakers looks much more pleasing to the eye. Although in terms of materials and design, it is not as textured as the 300,000 yuan luxury SUV, but considering its market positioning, such a cockpit has been able to meet the needs of players in this market.
The interior of the car is a three-row seven-seat layout, the second row of seats also provides seat heating and front and rear movement, while the third row of seats retains the air outlet and charging interface. This is indeed a "dessert" model for friends who are keen to buy a 7-seater SUV, of course, provided that you also like the performance of other aspects of the car.
In terms of power, the road shakers offer four solutions, three of which are diesel engines that I will not say more about here. Gasoline engine is a 2.3T four-cylinder EcoBoost model, its maximum power is 201 kilowatts, yes, it and the domestic currently on sale in the road in the power is not much difference, but some technical adjustments, should improve its fuel economy. Of course, this is my current guess, how, we still have to wait for the arrival of the new car to test in detail.
At present, the domestic road shakers sell in the price range of 275,800-37.48 million yuan, if the new model maintains this price, then it can be said that there is quite a lot of temptation. However, I think this possibility is still small, I think the high probability is that the price of the new road-shaker will be the same as the current 7-seat version of the model, that is, about 332,800 yuan, then the cost performance of this car will be measured again.
But, no matter what, I am more optimistic about the new road shakers, hurry up.
