The hybrid system of the Trumpchi GS8 belongs to the veritable Sino-Japanese hybrid. The part of the electricity comes from Toyota THS. The oil part is Trumpchi's own 2.0T engine.
The Trumpchi GS8 is comparable to the Highlander in terms of weight and size. There is nothing wrong with calling the Trumpchi GS8 "Flat Replacement" Highlander. There is no Toyota logo, it is 100,000 cheaper, and to be honest, the carriage is still luxurious.
This time we took the Trumpchi GS8 hybrid, as well as the Toyota Crown land release to compare fuel consumption. The specific numbers everyone clicked on the video to see, the measured result, it turned out to be Trumpchi GS8 hybrid win.
However, the place that needs to be explained is that due to the problem of test driving, we conducted fuel consumption tests twice, and the road conditions were different. Even if you take 10,000 steps back, the Trumpchi GS8 hybrid is already at a level with Toyota in terms of fuel saving.
Although it is very fragrant, the core technology is in the hands of others, and there will always be hidden worries. The 6AT gearbox of the first generation GS8 is also from Aisin, a subsidiary of Toyota. Finally, because Aisin's supply was limited, the GS8 could not be delivered in full, which consumed the patience of consumers.
