He often haunts social platforms and brings his own traffic,
So we're on this "influencer"
The arrival was also full of anticipation and questions...

GAC Trumpchi, which has always been specialized in the field of SUVs and MPVs, has made a splash in the field of home cars this time, and has created a compact sports car based on the GAC Trumpchi GPMA architecture, while the price is only 98,300 yuan - 131,800 yuan, which can be said to be very close to the people. An independent brand actually launched a model with such a personality, which in itself shows a kind of courage and strength. Finally, the legendary shadow leopard is in front of him, or an Asian trapeze "Sushin Limited Edition", this exclusive pure red has shown his special identity. The vehicle exudes a strong sporty atmosphere from the outside to the inside, with a low-lying forward-leaning combat posture, a sharp waist line on the side, a total of four real exhausts on both sides, an exaggerated original sports kit, imitation carbon fiber decorations throughout the car inside and outside the car, a lean and neat steering wheel shape, and even the eye-catching exhaust buttons on the steering wheel, all of which flaunt their sporty tonality.
Inside the car, Shadow Leopard adopts a 10.23-inch dual screen layout and a three-spoke multi-function steering wheel, which is reminiscent of AMG's interior layout. Although the interior materials are not very advanced due to cost control, the basic choice of soft material wrapping, red and black matching of the inner room color, carbon fiber pattern central control panels, as well as sports seats and red seat belts, will create a sporty atmosphere to the fullest. In addition, this Sushin Limited Edition also provides a special limited edition of 983 in front of the co-pilot to commemorate the Asian record of 9.83 seconds by Su Bingtian, an Asian 100-meter flyer.
Or let's hurry up and get into the main topic, the exhaust sound after the shadow leopard ignition first appears to be slightly different from the ordinary family car, which is inevitably impressive. Shadow Leopard is equipped with a high-power 1.5T engine, matching 7-stop wet dual-clutch transmission, the peak torque of 270 Nm can be released at 1500 rpm, and the 6.95 seconds of acceleration per 100 kilometers can definitely be at the forefront of the ranks of independent brand compact cars, not to mention that this is only a 100,000 yuan family car. The vehicle has 4+X super driving mode, which can realize the switching options of five different driving modes of energy saving, comfort, sports, sports +, and DIY. If you switch to Sport+ mode, that little and exciting roar pushes the driving pleasure to a climax. Driving on the street, this kind of sound and momentum will definitely attract attention, and it will inevitably make the shadow leopard become the focus of the street. To tell the truth, for a family car in the early 100,000s, the chassis adjustment of the Shadow Leopard definitely has the performance of exceeding the average or even ranking among the best. But driving the shadow leopard always gives people a certain illusion, his abundant power, the feeling of pushing back and the pleasant sound when accelerating sharply, all of which invisibly make people have too high expectations for him, but it seems that the support in the bend and the overall following of the body are not very in place. Let's still return to reality, in terms of sport control, the shadow leopard is quite powerful, although there is room for improvement in wind noise and tire noise at high speed, the wrapping of the seat is not ideal, but the flaws are not hidden, if only from the pricing point of view, this shadow leopard is definitely worth the ticket price.
The sporty shadow leopard does not sacrifice practicality, and the vehicle is remarkable in both storage space and sitting space. In particular, when it is full of 5 people, it is not as crowded as expected, and the rear floor and rear exhaust air outlet that are close to the flatness are also friendly enough for the back row. The luggage compartment also has enough space for daily needs, but the luggage compartment is not provided with an external opening button, which is still slightly inconvenient.
In addition to the sport control, other aspects of the Shadow Leopard also showed above average performance, the vehicle is equipped with L2 level driving assistance, and with ACC adaptive cruise, traffic sign recognition, tire pressure display, 360-degree panoramic image and other functions. Built-in ADiGO 4.0 car machine system, equipped with AI intelligent butler, voice recognition, gesture recognition, facial recognition and other functions. Mobile phone wireless charging, front seat heating, driver's seat memory, electric sunroof and other configurations are complete, the original factory comes with four 18-inch Michelin PS4 tires at this price point is more rare...
Shadow Leopard basically meets all the expectations of young Chinese consumers for their first car. In short, although he is not a hardcore sports car, in the 100,000+ class, there are few models with such handling pleasure. If you think that the 100,000 yuan class model can not talk about driving pleasure, then please go to the test drive yourself. Shadow Leopard is an option for those who do not have a good budget, you can buy it for the sake of good looks, cheapness, and space, and you can also come from the real love of driving pleasure in your heart.
