In the joint venture compact SUV market, most friends are relatively unfamiliar with the Yige produced by Mitsubishi, although it has been listed for more than three years, but because of many factors such as brand, it has not done anything in the market. So as far as the car is concerned, is the overall performance worth the price, and is it suitable for family use? This time, the author will take the guidance price of 167,800 yuan with the sub-top 2021 1.5T CVT four-wheel drive combustion version as an example, and everyone to fully analyze it!
First of all, from the appearance point of view, Mitsubishi Yige has not changed its appearance since its listing in 2018, but even so, it does not feel outdated at the moment, and even advanced. The reason why I say this is mainly because Mitsubishi Yige has a unique personality of the appearance of the shape. Following the Mitsubishi family design language, the size of the X-shaped forward grille occupies a large part of the front face, bringing us a strong visual impact, and the split headlight combination as a popular design element today is not absent from this Mitsubishi Yige.
In terms of body size, the length, width and height are 4405 * 1805 * 1685mm, the wheelbase is 2670mm, if compared with the mainstream compact SUV, the size data of Mitsubishi Yige does not have any advantages, can only be regarded as the entry compact SUV in the more top representative. The front low and back high side design, while the upper waist line runs through the rear of the car, the lower waist line shows an upward posture, which also greatly enhances the sports atmosphere of the side.
As for the tail shape, my personal feeling is also the most controversial and recognizable design of the Mitsubishi Yige appearance level. As can be seen from the pictures, although Mitsubishi Yige also uses the current fashionable combination of through-type taillights, it is undoubtedly possible to see its uniqueness in the position of the rear windshield, making the overall appearance of the rear of the car more layered. However, although this design can give us a fuller sense of personality, it will also affect the rear line of sight to a certain extent in daily driving.
The interior part of Mitsubishi Yige returns it to the original practical route. The usual symmetrical interior layout, easy-to-operate physical function buttons, conventional three-frame steering wheel, etc., the overall shape is obviously out of touch with the present. Of course, objectively and fairly speaking, the shape is ordinary, and the failure to achieve the mainstream level at this stage is its disadvantage, but according to personal experience, good starter has become its own advantage. In addition, the interior has added a lot of soft materials, coupled with the silver and white decorative strips that play a decorative effect, in all fairness, the sense of luxury really cannot be given to us, but it is not so strong sense of cheapness.
The floating 8-inch LCD display designed above the center console only supports Baidu Carlife, which is difficult to meet the needs of some friends for mobile phone interconnection. If the four-wheel drive version of the guide price mentioned today remains at about 130,000, the lack of Carplay is actually acceptable, but the price is nearly 170,000 yuan, which is really too shabby. And the configuration of the shabby is not only reflected in the car machine system, the same is true for the safety and practical configuration, such as the lack of parking radar, active safety configuration, electric trunk, etc., are the reasons for weakening their own existence in the same level.
Friends who are familiar with Mitsubishi basically know that practicality is its best play, which is true for Mitsubishi Outlander, and it is also true for this Mitsubishi Yige. The 180cm tall experiencer sits in the back row, with leg space maintained at one punch and head space of about four fingers. The rear seats support proportional reclining, and the seats can form a relatively straight space after being reclined, and the daily needs of pulling large parts can also be met. This space performance is placed in the entry-level compact SUV camp, which belongs to the upper middle level, at least there is no feeling of depression and cramping, and it can better meet the needs of most families of three. The rear seats support front and rear adjustment and backrest adjustment, which is also a product highlight. Disadvantages are manifested in the general feeling of seat wrapping, the straight design of the rear backrest and the lack of rear vents.
In terms of hardware, it is equipped with a 1.5T engine with a maximum power of 125 kW and a maximum torque of 250 N·m, matching the CVT stepless gearbox. The power output is relatively linear and smooth, and although it does not surprise us sensoryly, the actual acceleration ability is not bad. NeDC's comprehensive fuel consumption is 7.8L/100km, which is also a relatively good level in the same level.
The S-AWC timely four-wheel drive system better ensures the passability and driving texture of Mitsubishi Yige. The front and rear suspensions use McPherson independent suspension and rear multi-link independent suspension, and the Mitsubishi Yige tune is biased toward toughness, combined with the S-AWC four-wheel drive system, especially in rain and snow, can also give the driver full confidence. However, when encountering potholed roads, the toughness of American and German cars is lacking, and there will be a strong sense of bumps.
Summary: Excellent hardware quality and good driving texture are the biggest advantages of Mitsubishi Yige. However, the lack of many configurations, coupled with the low degree of recognition, makes it difficult to make a big difference. It can only be said that without considering the retention rate, if you want to buy a compact SUV with stable quality and better hardware than other models, Mitsubishi Yige can still consider it.
