Hello, everyone, I'm Hongtao said car.
Small SUVs have a lot of demand, mainly facing the young consumer group, in the camp of independent brands, Geely Binyue, Changan CS35 PLUS and Chery Tiggo 5x, etc., have achieved good sales results, and the following Hongtao wants to talk about GAC Trumpchi GS3, so how is the performance of all aspects of this car?
The guidance price of GAC Trumpchi GS3 is 7.88-102,800 yuan, and there are currently about 5,000 yuan of discounts in 4S stores.
In terms of appearance, the front face adopts a large-sized air intake grille, the interior is filled with banner chrome trim strips, and is connected to the headlights, which looks stylish and personalized, the lamp cavity is equipped with lenses, and the eyes are a little sharp, and the front surrounds the two sides with the shape of the imitation air intake groove, which adds some sports atmosphere, and also uses matte chrome-plated materials.
The length, width and height of the vehicle are 4350 * 1825 * 1685mm, the wheelbase is 2560mm, although it is a small SUV, but from the side point of view is not stingy, the body is compact and full, the proportion is coordinated, the suspension roof is more fashionable, in line with the aesthetics of young consumers.
The roof end is equipped with a small spoiler, and the butterfly wing-like taillights are very distinctive, especially when the bright red LED light source is lit, which is highly recognizable, and the underside is equipped with black surrounds and metal skid plates to make it more heavy.
In terms of interior, the layout of the center console is very simple, various functions are relatively easy to operate, the materials in the carriage are OK, the assembly process can not pick out any problems, the front storage space is rich, but some storage slots are a little small, and the smell of the new car is somewhat large, it is recommended to open more windows for ventilation.
In terms of configuration, the low- and medium-sized models are equipped with the main passenger seat airbag, tire pressure display, ESP body stabilization system, reversing radar, driving mode switching, uphill assist, steep slope slow descent, keyless entry and start, 10.25-inch touch LCD screen, etc.
To the high-end model, the front side airbags, reversing images, fixed speed cruise, automatic parking, electric sunroof, LED headlights, etc., but the steering wheel is made of plastic, which is not satisfactory, only the top model has lane departure warning, active braking and leather multi-function steering wheel.
The space performance is not particularly spacious, after all, the size and level are here, but it belongs to the level of enough, the passenger with a height of 1.73 meters sits in the rear row, the leg has a distance of nearly 2 fists, the top of the head has a surplus of about 1 fist, there will be no crowding and depression, the seat is thick, the cushion is long enough, but if there are 3 adults sitting side by side, like most small SUVs, the horizontal space will be somewhat insufficient, and the trunk volume is small.
In terms of power, it is equipped with two kinds of power 1.5T engines, of which the 6-speed manual model matches the three-cylinder 1.5T turbocharged engine, the maximum power is 163 horsepower, the maximum torque is 235 Nm, the start is brisk, and the manual transmission can also bring some driving pleasure, but when the idle speed and cold car start, the engine jitter can be detected, and the rest of the time is not much different from the four-cylinder engine.
The automatic model is equipped with a four-cylinder 1.5T turbocharged engine, the maximum power is 169 horsepower, the maximum torque is 265 Nm, the power output is smooth, the throttle and brake foot feel more comfortable, the steering wheel rotates lightly at low speed, and because of its small size, walking the streets and alleys is flexible and convenient, it is easy to turn around and find a parking space, when you need the power to step on the throttle deeply, there is a certain explosive force, overtaking can bring confidence to the driver, and the matching is the 6-stop automatic transmission, and there is no obvious setback in gear shifting.
The chassis adopts the front McPherson, rear longitudinal arm twist beam non-independent suspension, usually driving in the city road conditions, the chassis of the shock filter is better, the car is relatively quiet, but in the case of non-paved roads, tire noise is large, through the speed bump and rotten road, the body is somewhat shaky, running high-speed wind noise is also easy to spread from the tailgate position to the car.
In general, although GAC Trumpchi GS3 has shortcomings, but it is not a hard injury, all aspects of the performance is still relatively balanced, beautiful appearance, enough space, power performance is also good, the main sales of the car for four cylinder automatic models, 1.5T + 6AT powertrain is stable and reliable.
