A hard-hitting look that is not pretentious
Looking back at subaru XV, its front design is relatively simple, and the middle net uses a black honeycomb mesh design, although the size is not large, and there is no excessive fancy decoration, but it is particularly attractive and belongs to the design that is not easy to become obsolete.
The style of the Subaru XV headlamp is sharp, the whole belongs to the simple configuration, not procrastinating, not pretentious, but enough "godly", can be regarded as the finishing touch of the front part of the face. It is worth mentioning that the Subaru XV 2021 2.0i Elite flagship EyeSight model is equipped with LED high beam lights.
In addition, in terms of mirror functions, subaru XV is also readily available, and the new car supports the automatic down-turning of the exterior mirrors, electric adjustment, heating, memory and electric folding functions.
The Subaru XV series features a tire width of 225, and the 17-inch wheels used in the entry-level model are 18 inches in size. In addition, subaru XV uses silver fancy wheels that are rare on the market, and the visual effect is very dynamic.
In terms of the rear, Subaru XV is still a tough style, tough and mixed with a sense of strength, with a very high sense of design taillights, quite a sense of ornamentation, can give people "XV has a personality, not 'good stubble'" feeling, but in the end the appearance of the performance is always with the vehicle core of the "performance", personally all the hard style is to highlight the handling of the vehicle.
Youthful and sporty interior design
Subaru
The XV steering wheel uses a three-frame design that looks slightly like Jaguar's latest style steering wheel. The steering wheel is moderately thick and thin, made of leather material, and the texture and grip are of a high standard. In particular, the edges of the three steering wheels are trimmed with metal materials, and similar techniques are also popular for sports models. It can be said that when the driver really comes into contact with this detailed steering wheel, the inner desire to control and the driving impulse will be instantly broken.
In the era when the full LCD dashboard and multi-screen were regarded by many car companies as the "touchstone of science and technology", Subaru did not blindly follow the trend. To say that the technical content of LCD screens and multi-screen screens is really high? Not necessarily. Subaru knows where it is positioned and what users who choose Subaru XV need more. Subaru XV retains a double circular mechanical meter for the user, and it is interesting that its double circular meter is actually composed of two sets of "concentric circles", so there are actually four circles in the dashboard. XV pays homage to pure driving with pure mechanical construction, and this "purity" is one of the few today, and Subaru has considered practicality for the owner while retaining the classic.
Also able to arouse the driver's adrenaline is the metal pedal, Subaru XV for the user equipped with JDM "standard" metal pedals, in the intense driving can bring the ordinary pedal does not have a sense of feedback, with the three-frame steering wheel and mechanical instruments, can only say that XV's sporty cockpit attributes have been pulled full.
Create a sporty atmosphere, do you think that's the end of it? No, the XV's use of black leather seats with orange/blue stitching has brought the sporty atmosphere of the car to a new climax.
In addition to using many furnishings to continuously enhance the senses of sports enthusiasts, subaru XV has also gone hand in hand in terms of practicality and intelligence.
Subaru XV uses a medium-sized embedded central control screen, the air conditioner air outlet is arranged vertically and symmetrically on both sides of the screen, and the combination of the central control screen and the air conditioner air outlet is quite a bit of land Cruiser's shadow. Under the central control screen, XV also retains a lot of physical buttons and physical knobs designed to bring stronger practicality to the owner, rather than giving up practicality for the so-called "appearance" and "integration", Subaru's designers have positive values in this regard.
In addition, Subaru XV also has a brand owner, which enables XV to obtain the EyeSight Driver Assistance System, the highest 5-star safety rating given by the European New Car Safety Evaluation Association (Euro NCAP) in 2017. The system uses two stereo cameras for target recognition, which can effectively grasp the environmental conditions and actively brake when necessary. It includes five functions, including collision prevention technology, auxiliary follow-up technology, starting throttle misoperation, lane departure correction assistance, alarm and prompt.
Subaru is proud of his housekeeping skills, XV has it all!
At the same time, the 2021 XV also features a hybrid gasoline-electric model, adding a 9.6kW/63N·m electric motor to the original 2.0L self-priming engine. The four working modes of this oil-electric hybrid system are pure electric, motor auxiliary drive (medium speed driving), gasoline engine independent operation (high-speed driving), and kinetic energy recovery (vehicle braking). The fuel consumption of the hybrid model officially gave a 6.4L 100-kilometer data, which is no less than the Japanese hybrid opponents of the same level.
Although the main purpose of the hybrid system is to find a balance between power and economy, the XV hybrid model will also have better handling than pure fuel models. On the one hand, the power output will be more direct in the presence of the motor; on the other hand, the auxiliary motor is located in the CVT gearbox at the front of the body, and the battery pack is placed under the trunk, which has the advantage of further balancing the front and rear counterweights of the body.
And why does the XV have excellent handling, in addition to good power and the whole series of four-wheel drive? That's when it comes to subaru's SGP global platform, which enables subaru XV to have strong handling and body rigidity in complex road conditions.
The SGP optimizes the subaru XV's body, chassis and suspension to give the vehicle a lower center of gravity to ensure excellent stability and reduce center of gravity shift. Therefore, SGP can effectively disperse body vibration, suppress body shaking, and greatly reduce the vibration of the steering wheel and floor.
In addition, SGP can also optimize the chassis structure, strengthen the connection parts, and improve the overall anti-torsion and bending rigidity of the body. According to official information, the high rigidity chassis structure of subaru XV has increased the rigidity by more than 70% compared with the previous generation; the bending rigidity and torsional rigidity of the body have also been greatly improved, and the torsional strength around the rear suspension has also been improved.
The strength of the model product is beyond doubt, what is the after-sales service of Subaru? Subaru officially launched a 15-time free basic maintenance policy for XV and other Subaru models within 5 years/75,000km; at the same time, it also provides brand extension services for up to 6 years or 200,000km; interested friends may wish to check out at local dealers.
summary
The Subaru XV has a tough and sporty shape, the interior creates a sporty atmosphere while not being ostentatious, but also has a powerful SGP platform as an endorsement, excellent engine placement and body weight ratio, the whole series comes standard with Subaru's proud four-wheel drive system. Coupled with the fact that the 2021 model incorporates a hybrid fuel-electric and a higher-level intelligent driver assistance system, the comprehensive Subaru XV can hardly find an opponent at the same level or at the same price; on the sportiness, in addition to the Subaru XV, is there anything that the same level of SUV can fight with? So for young players who are truly pursuing the core of sports, subaru XV is definitely an unmissable option. (Photo/Text: Pacific Auto Network Huang Zengjian)
