The demand in the field of family cars is extremely large, is a must for many manufacturers to give up, in recent years, our domestic brands have launched many good quality family cars, they have a large space, while the price is also very attractive. Today, Uncle Che has selected two representative products from it, let's take a look at it.
The 2021 Geely Xingrui model was launched in November 2020, and the new car currently has a total of 7 configurations in the whole series, with a price range of 113,700 to 152,700 yuan. The 2021 Dongfeng Yixuan MAX was launched in September last year, and the price range of this model is 9.39 to 137,900 yuan.
Next, The car uncle will choose the 2021 Xingrui premium version with a guidance price of 138,700 yuan to compare with the Top Edition of Yixuan MAX, the price gap between the two is not large, so under this premise, which model has a higher product force?
Exterior design
Xingrui is the first model under the CMA architecture, but also the first wide-body product, the appearance of the car is easy to reminiscent of Bo Rui, but in terms of line outline and body proportions are more handsome, there is a sense of heroism. Among them, the front face of the new car is equipped with a representative element in Geely's new 4.0 design language: the vertical grille of energy strings, which Uncle Che believes is more beautiful than the previous ripples of water waves. The headlight group of the all-LED light source on the left and right sides adopts the far and near light split design, and the three-stage pulse LED daytime running lights will show a visual effect of progressive diffusion outward after being lit.
Yixuan MAX Dark Night Edition model adopts frosted black car paint, while the body LOGO, encirclement, wheel rim, pulling and many other parts are decorated with gold, which has a high degree of recognition. The new model uses the new family design language of the Dongfeng brand, the shape of the whole vehicle is very urban fashionable, and the interior of the inverted trapezoidal mesh equipped with the front face is filled with dot-matrix trim panels, and it is completely blackened. The front surrounds the sides through the V-shaped decorative strips to outline the huge imitation vent shape, while also adding wind blade trim pieces.
In terms of body size, the specific length, width and height of Xingrui are 4785×1869×1469 mm, and the wheelbase is 2800mm. The wheelbase of this model to reach 2.8 meters is already equivalent to the level of a luxury brand standard axle medium-sized car, and its front and rear wheelbases are 1618mm, which also indirectly shows that the mechanical quality of the chassis of the car should not be underestimated.
The specific length, width and height of the Max are 4817×1890×1475 mm, and the wheelbase is 2770mm, which leads the three-dimensional data. The dark night version of the model has added a gold side skirt on the side of the body, the pull at the door runs from the bottom to the rear of the tailgate, and the bottom of the car is also equipped with a black multi-spoke wheel, which is extremely cool.
The inward convergence of the Xingrui C-pillar creates a more robust tail posture, which is very attractive to the coupe model, while the short tail design also draws on some line elements of the hatchback. Among them, the internal turn signals of the rounded tail light group on the left and right sides of the new rear have a circulation effect, and the brake lights and fog lights are combined to look relatively small. The two-color rear surround is decorated with a diffuser, the exhaust port is also decorated, and the exhaust from both sides is a hidden layout.
The modification of the rear of the MAX is quite exaggerated, in which the car is equipped with a fixed spoiler above the trunk cover, the shell of the through-type taillight group is blackened, and the rear perimeter of the new car is integrated into the round hole exhaust with a total of four sides, and the large diffuser decoration looks scary enough.
Interior design
The design of the instrument panel in the Xingrui car pays more attention to the sense of prominent layering, and the overall shape is staggered and concise. Among them, the interior covering parts of the new car are basically made of soft materials of the plastic-lining process, and the details are decorated with piano paint panels and silver trims, which is extremely prominent in texture. The sport steering wheel in the flat-bottom style directly in front of the main driver is moderately sized, and the leather fabric used for wrapping the outer ring is delicate in the hand, the overall grip is good, and it is also relatively non-slip. In addition, the new car's full LCD dashboard supports split-screen navigation, which can play the advantages of the LCD screen well, the linkage effect is excellent, and the display screen is clear and delicate enough.
The interior styling of the MAX is consistent with the current model, and the main adjustment is reflected in the detail decoration. Among them, the central control display screen of the new car is tilted 9.8 degrees to the driver's side, forming an asymmetrical design, the display screen itself has a little 3D curved effect, and it is equipped with a Windlink 5.0 system inside, which supports voice recognition control and various online functions. The three-frame steering wheel directly in front of the main driver feels good, the leather fabric used to cover the surface is very skin-friendly, and the steering wheel supports four-way adjustment.
The seats in the Xingrui car are wrapped in imitation leather fabric, and the functions support the electric adjustment of the main passenger seat and the heating of the front seats. The design style of the interior seats of the new model is very similar to that of Geely Xingyue, with moderate softness and hardness of the internal padding, and the side wings of the seat cushion and backrest are prominent, which has good comfort and wrapping.
Yixuan MAX interior seats are wrapped in a mix of imitation leather + flipped fur materials, and the function is compared to Xingrui, which lacks the four-way adjustment of the waist support of the main passenger seat and the heating of the front seats. The interior padding of the front seats in the new car is soft, but the seat surface is relatively flat and the wrapping is more general.
The backrest angle of the rear seats in the Xingrui car is very reasonable, and the hip position has a certain degree of sinking, so that the legs of the rear passengers are stretched enough, and the riding experience is much stronger than that of many models of the same level. In addition, the bulge of the central platform of the car is not too large, and the longitudinal space is generous, which will not affect the riding experience of the intermediate passengers.
Yixuan MAX rear seats in the material application and workmanship of the same level as the front row, the rear of each position are equipped with independent headrests that can be lifted, the interior padding of the middle seat is not too hard, and the central bulge of the platform is not large, so it is not a problem to cope with short rides.
dynamical system

The MAX top-of-the-line version of the Company adopts a hybrid system with a 1.5T engine with a maximum output of 163 horsepower and an electric motor with an output of 177Ps. In terms of drivetrain, it is matched by the E-CVT stepless gearbox.
Uncle Che summed up
As a representative model of the new generation of domestic family cars, Xingrui and Yixuan MAX have quite good strength. Through the comparison of the same price point of the above two models, we can see that their advantages are different, among which Xingrui has more excellent power performance performance, more comprehensive functional configuration and larger rear seating space, while Yixuan MAX has a larger external size and better fuel economy, from the perspective of product strength and cost performance, Xingrui's priority is higher, so in this round of comparison, The car uncle is more recommended is Geely Xingrui.
