The competition between 300,000 yuan luxury medium-sized cars has never stopped, and it is interesting that even though consumers who pursue sports have grown year by year, comfort has quietly become the first priority, whether it is a new C-class with a pleasant driving experience, or a new 3 series that cancels the rear anti-roll bar, the attention of factors such as long wheelbase, hybrid, fuel consumption and so on is gradually rising, even if it is a more sporty A4L, it is even because of the balanced performance that has even been spat on "no personality".
And for those who still love the sense of sport and the sense of control, I recommend you to know the Genises-Denise G70 car. Niche positioning brings a return rate that exceeds expectations, and delicate workmanship, excellent configuration and good handling performance can definitely be "worth the fare".
The atmosphere is in place and the chassis is excellent
The G70's driving modes are divided into five types: economy, comfort, sport, sport +, and customization, and the driving feel is also strongly different. In custom mode, the G70 allows individual adjustments to the powertrain (engine/transmission), steering feel, suspension stiffness and four-wheel drive, taking suspension adjustment as an example, the comfort mode is full of toughness, the sport mode has a certain sense of bump, and the sport + mode will emphasize the feedback of road details.
As far as urban mobility is concerned, I prefer the G70's comfort mode. The power output is gradual, the driving rhythm is leisurely strolling, the 8-speed manual transmission works diligently, the gear shift action is gentle enough, and when the pointer just slides over the 2000rpm tick line, the gearbox also completes the gear shift, but the slightly existent tire noise will occasionally remind you to "pay attention to the speed limit".
The chassis performed beyond expectations, and the tuning style of performance orientation was very obvious. In the comfort mode, the small bumps are almost isolated under the spring, which brings a strong sense of security for the passengers in the car; after switching to the sport mode and the sport + mode, the details on the road surface are almost unreservedly transmitted to the car, the suspension and the body are extremely coordinated, and there is also a strong sense of integrity when quickly passing through the bumpy road.
What was it like to drive a G70 onto the track? If judged by the sports family car, I would like to give the G70 a score of more than 90 points – this is almost a sporty car with a taste of performance. Switch to Sport + mode, the seat flanks will automatically tighten, in advance to create a full competitive attribute, after all turn off the body stabilization system, the left foot on the brake, the right foot to test the throttle, you can activate the ejection start function.
In Sport+ mode, the G70 will be half off ESP, and the power output characteristics will also be biased towards the rear axle, thus creating a body posture that is biased towards oversteering. But don't worry, G70 still has a strong controllability, out of the corner of the big foot oil will only bring a slight sliding of the rear, slightly adjust the throttle opening, and even do not have to deliberately correct the direction. Thanks to the excellent rear support of the suspension, the body's center of gravity shifts more quickly than expected, with a sharp sense of sharpness in the bend with each corner, and the combination of high-end sports tires on the front PS4 and the PS4S brings a sense of stability that sticks to the road surface, and also allows the driver to test higher APEX speeds.
The acceleration performance of the mid-to-back range is exactly in line with the power parameters of 245 horsepower, and if necessary, it will even drop several gears, the red line speed of more than 6000 rpm teases the visual nerve, and the thick sound wave compensation can also create enough fun. However, the rapid oil supply during the corner will make the gearbox "hesitate" for a short time, and the acceleration is still dominated by smoothness, and the expected shift impact does not appear.
Front and rear ventilation discs + Brembo brake calipers bring excellent braking effect, the big foot brake has a rapid deceleration effect when driving on the first few laps of the track, there is no too obvious thermal attenuation after five or six consecutive laps of rapid driving, and there is also strong stability when braking. However, the G70's steering feel is somewhat dragged down the driving rhythm, the steering wheel damping adjustment is somewhat deliberate, especially after switching to the sport mode, the sinking feel will make the directivity not so clear, sometimes the hands may have to struggle to steer, the perception of the wheels will also be somewhat reduced, if it is more linear will be better.
This is a Korean car with a super high comeback rate
Unique and brilliant design that will always capture your heart among all sentient beings. G70 is like this, when you go out on the street, you can get a good return rate, the V-shaped wide grille looks like a peach heart, the blackened diamond-shaped internal net indicates the identity of "hard stubble", the iconic split LED headlight group is slim in size, and the whole series is equipped with automatic headlights and adaptive near and far lights, which is very conscientious.
In the Chinese auto market, which advertises a long wheelbase, the G70's body size is somewhat "out of place". The wheelbase performance of 4700mm and 2835mm is naturally incomparable with the lengthened C-class and A4L, even if it is the standard axle 3 series, it does not account for the slightest advantage. You may believe that the G70 consumer group does not care about the rear seating space, but in terms of comfort and practicality, the rear seat still performs well.
The clever double-section waistline outlines the body shape in light and shade, the body's same-colored lower diffuser and Bentley's oval double exhaust pipe are cool, and the "Wings of Inspiration" LED taillights and simple rear lines combine to interpret the unique design aesthetic of Genises.
The G70 adopts a driver-centric cockpit design concept, almost all within reach is wrapped in leather and soft materials, and the red interior atmosphere also brings a strong sporty atmosphere. Different from the popular subtraction design (screen supreme), the G70's central control area concentrates many physical buttons, and the collision of trendy and old-school style also brings a unique level of operation.
The 12.3-inch full LCD instrument display effect is quite outstanding, the theme switches with the driving mode, and the naked-eye 3D effect is supported; the 10.25-inch suspension large screen is equally excellent in terms of display clarity and fluency, the UI design is very advanced, and the narrow border setting also brings a good visual perception, but does not support The CarPlay function. In addition, the 360-degree panoramic image is clear enough to have almost no dead ends.
The abundance of physics buttons seems to pull you back five or six years, but the rational layout and subtle damping settings will make you feel the cleverness of the design. Compared with some of the four- and five-level menu bar pages hidden deeply throughout the large screen, the buttons such as maps, media, and air conditioning control are touched, and the functions cover steering wheel heating, seat heating/ventilation, air purification, wireless charging and other configurations, which are luxurious enough.
The red stitched seats have the signature texture, the leather wrap provides excellent skin-friendly texture, and the leg rest adjustment and four-way support at the waist also avoid fatigue after a long drive. In addition, the model is equipped with seat memory and boss buttons, and the rear seats are even heated, which is very well configured.
The G70's rear seats support a 4/6 ratio of reclining, which can form a penetrating space with the trunk after being reclined, and the loading capacity is significantly improved.
epilogue
From the handling level, the G70 has created excellent sporty attributes, from excellent suspension tuning, to efficient power matching and four-wheel drive system, even if placed on the track, the G70 can bring enough passion, although the heavy steering feel drags down some footsteps, but still can not hide the performance of the model athletes. Perhaps in the 300,000 yuan luxury medium-sized car market, the G70 is somewhat niche, the space is not so abundant, and even the fuel consumption is not low, but it is not a very happy thing to have such a model that makes people full of driving desire?
