If you want to buy a high-safety, high-quality model, I believe that the models on the crash test platform list such as C-NCAP and C-IASI are the primary reference objects for many people. However, compared with the results of the test, the models that can truly protect the safety of people in the car in real traffic accidents are undoubtedly more worthy of reference. Speaking of which, I have to mention a video of the recent fire, a Dongfeng Peugeot 4008 was forcibly squeezed and dragged by a large truck on the highway for more than 100 meters. Fortunately, the body structure of the Peugeot 4008 is not deformed, and the doors on both sides can be opened normally, ensuring the safety of the entire car.
As we all know, the side of the body does not have the energy absorption and collapse setting of the front of the front, only the door and a few pillars, once squeezed, can only use its own steel hard top. So, how strong is the steel on the Peugeot 4008? Its A/B/C column uses 1600MPa ultra-high strength thermoformed steel, which even surpasses the Mercedes-Benz S-class, and the proportion of super-strength steel used in the whole vehicle exceeds 74.2%, in addition, 5420 body solder joints are also comparable to volvo S90. Obviously, the material performance of the Peugeot 4008 is gradually in line with the luxury car, which not only surpasses the opponents of the same level, giving the vehicle a higher safety, but also giving the owner more living space.
In fact, the high quality of Dongfeng Peugeot 4008 is not only reflected in the "steel and iron bone", but also has excellent performance in styling design, comfortable configuration and power control. First of all, from the appearance point of view, the dense dot matrix chrome structure of the front face is netted, showing a sense of refinement and grade, while the sharp "fang-shaped LED headlights and three-stage air intakes" create a sporty atmosphere. The full body silhouette gives people a very solid and powerful feeling, and the tail "lion's claw" LED strip adds a lot of technology. I have to say that the 4008 has a unique romantic temperament of French cars, and the "iceberg blue" color scheme added by the Chuangxiang edition highlights the unique personality charm.
Of course, this personality charm also extends to the car. Under the advanced design concept of i-Cockpit's solipsistic cockpit, design elements such as racing-style multi-function steering wheel, yacht-style electronic gear lever, central control piano arrangement buttons, etc., with diamond-shaped stitched sports-style seats, exude a full sense of high-end and sporty everywhere. 12.3-inch full LCD instrument + 10-inch suspension central control screen, but also bring a strong scientific and technological atmosphere. Intelligent and comfortable features such as voice control, keyless entry/start, fatigue driving prompts, cruise control, reversing images, panoramic sunroof, power adjustment of the main/auxiliary seats, and automatic dual-zone air conditioning are not absent in the Chuangxiang Edition.
It should be known that the price of the Dongfeng Peugeot 4008 Chuangxiang Edition is only 167,700 yuan, and the richness of these configurations can be compared with the 195,800 Honda CRV two-wheel drive urban version, and their price difference is nearly 30,000 yuan, which is enough to reflect the thickness of the Peugeot 4008. Not to mention that the Peugeot 4008 also features more than 110 mute measures, low-odor/low-VOC environmentally friendly materials, and AQS high-efficiency air filtration systems, which reflect the high quality to the fullest. Although the body size is slightly inferior to the competitors of the same level, but in actual experience, the rear space is still relatively generous, and the head and leg space have a certain amount of margin, which can be said to be more than enough to cope with daily life.
The final power control is a highlight of the Peugeot 4008. The Chuangxiang version is equipped with a 1.8T turbocharged direct injection engine, with a maximum power of 155kW (211 horsepower) and a maximum torque of 300N·m, surpassing the Toyota RAV4 Rongfang 2.0L and Honda CR-V 1.5T engines, and adopts the same VVL continuous variable valve lift technology as BMW, matching the Aisin 8AT transmission imported from Japan, and the comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is as low as 6.2L/100km. Although the suspension structure is front McPherson, rear torque beam type non-independent suspension, the 4008 still won the 2021 CCPC Bump Challenge all group first place, Elk test race group first place.
The reason is that Peugeot 4008 inherits the century-old master chassis tuning, with closed cross-section rear beam, double rubber bushing, second-order buffer block 3 core technologies, under the guidance of Peugeot chassis master, torque beam control and comfort more than four links or even better than some five links, it is not difficult to understand such results. In fact, Dongfeng Peugeot has won more than 4008 models, peugeot 408 has also won the "CN95 Healthy Cockpit - Fresh Air Cockpit (Class A)" certification mark issued by the Huacheng Certification Center of China Automotive Technology and Research Center, and with excellent quality has withstood the high-temperature VOC test conducted at the China Automobile Research Automobile Inspection Center.
These awards all reflect dongfeng Peugeot's technical strength and strict control of quality and quality. I have to say that Dongfeng Peugeot 4008 and 408 do not hesitate to spend all kinds of materials to prove its conscience to users and the market, and also let everyone understand what kind of car is a good car with good conscience and quality. If you want to buy a conscientious quality, power handling and cost-effective SUV, then the new 4008 Creative Edition is a good choice. If you budget more than 100,000 to buy a family car, then the Peugeot 408, which is based on high-quality core selling points, is worth considering.
