In the domestic automobile market, the sales of models equipped with three-cylinder engines are generally not very good, such as the previous Buick Yinglang and other models, the sales performance is not very good, but after they are replaced by four-cylinder engines, sales have been further improved. Buick also has an SUV, which is also equipped with a three-cylinder engine, that is, the Buick Oncora GX, according to the survey, it only sold 530 units in January this year, and the dismal sales volume is closely related to the three-cylinder engine. Recently, it launched the 2022 model, reducing the model to 1 model, priced at 164,900 yuan. The power has not changed much, but the price is cheaper than 1,000 yuan, so what has changed in the end, is it worth buying? Let's talk about it in detail.
The appearance is the same as the old model, and it still looks so stylish. As a facelift, the appearance of the Oncora GX is not a key change, or maintain the appearance of the old model, we are familiar with the iconic flying wing chrome grille + full LED headlights set is still equipped. The only change in appearance is to provide a new color scheme, in addition to the existing snow white, but also added phantom blue and tourmaline brown two colors, more in line with the aesthetics of young people.
The interior is still the same as before, and the configuration has been adjusted mainly. The new Oncola GX is 1,000 yuan cheaper than the old car, but the configuration has been reduced, less than the old car, less parallel assist, reversing side warning system two safety configurations, but there are increases and decreases, but also increase the exterior mirror electric folding configuration, to provide consumers with new choices. For the old driver, the cancellation of these two configurations did not have a particularly big impact, and this cheaper model version could be opted for.
The body size has not changed, and the space is slightly smaller than that of the Volkswagen Exploration. The new Oncora GX is 4463/1813/1644mm in length, width and height, and has a wheelbase of 2640mm. Compared with the volkswagen T-ROC T-ROC Tange (body length 4318mm / wheelbase 2680mm) and Nissan Qashqai (body length 4401mm / wheelbase 2646mm), the Body of the Oncora GX is longer, but the wheelbase is slightly smaller than the other two cars, and the space is not dominant in the same class.
The power is the same as the old model, or a three-cylinder engine. The new Oncora GX will continue to use a 1.3T three-cylinder engine + CVT CVT continuously variable transmission power combination with a maximum power of 165 hp and a peak torque of 240 Nm. The power data is not bad, compared to the 151 hp 2.0L engine used by nissan Qashqai and the 150 hp 1.4T engine used by Volkswagen T-ROC Tango. Although the current three-cylinder engine is much more optimized than before, many consumers do not recognize it very much.
Write at the end:
The new Oncora GX two-wheel drive deluxe version, on the basis of 1,000 yuan cheaper than the old model, the configuration has been increased or decreased, which is more friendly to the old driver and can be said to be a new choice. There is no change in shape and space, and the power still continues to use a three-cylinder engine, if it is replaced by a four-cylinder engine like Buick Yinglang and other models, perhaps there will be a certain increase in sales. From the perspective of the entire product force, its appearance is atmospheric, the technology configuration is rich, the space is spacious, for consumers who want to spend 150,000 yuan to buy a joint venture SUV, and are not so concerned about the three-cylinder machine, this car is not bad at all, and there are also about 40,000 yuan discounts on the market, which can be considered.
