With the continuous arrival of new cars now, we seem to be no longer sensitive to this car market, as long as there are new cars in the car market, we consumers have to be excited for a long time, but now we can't find that feeling at all, because it is no longer strange. It may be precisely because of the wide variety of models that our consumers have also been paralyzed for a long time, and it is really difficult to pick out a good car with high cost performance in the market for a while, and because of the serious polarization, those models with good sales are getting better and better, and those models that are temporarily at a low point become more and more difficult to turn over. In fact, good sales and good models are a relative concept, not necessarily completely proportional, but many models with average sales are more sincere on the whole. In our domestic market, there are many brands and many models, it is because the sales volume is general and the overall strength has been ignored, then I will introduce you today 2 joint venture cars, the engine won 8 consecutive championships, the chassis is as stable as "cattle", and 8AT.
First of all, let's talk about the first one, it is peugeot 408, as a French brand I have always felt that they are very strong, the previous French car left me with a durable, fuel-efficient and easy to drive image, especially before, the French car was also used as a taxi, which is enough to prove the strength of the French car. For this Peugeot 408, it is a compact sedan, the positioning price is 11.97 - 159,700, which is a very mainstream positioning price range. So what are the strength advantages of this car? First of all, in terms of chassis, not to mention, French cars have always been among the best. Today, I will focus on what everyone may not know about this car, that is, its healthy cockpit and the quality of the materials. Many people do not think about this kind of thing, in fact, the car material is directly related to our physical and mental health, especially in the summer after the car is exposed to the sun, the difference between healthy materials and ordinary materials is very large.
This car is a system of green design system, it uses a lot of low volatility, low odor environmental protection material process, such materials can effectively alleviate the odor of the new car, and can also ensure that the air in the car is fresh. And its audit standards are also very strict, there are eight thresholds layer by layer, and the supplier flight inspection, randomly audited and sampled at the supplier site to ensure that the materials of each car can withstand the test, so this is a car with a "green environmental protection" label, which is very suitable for our home. In addition, it is also very good in terms of power, it is equipped with a 1.6T turbocharged engine, this engine has a maximum of 170 horsepower, matching the 6-speed automatic transmission, under such a set of power, the car's 100-kilometer fuel consumption is 5.8L, which has to be said to be very economical. Because the joint venture cars in this class are rarely equipped with this 1.6T engine, like Volkswagen's Langyi highest match is 1.4T, the maximum horsepower is 150, so relatively speaking, this Peugeot 408 is still very sincere.
Secondly, let's talk about the second car, the second is the Peugeot 4008, which is a joint venture compact SUV, in fact, many people think that the Peugeot 4008 is very good, including me. Its positioning price is 16.77 -233,700, and the main competition is Volkswagen Tuyue, Honda CRV and other models. In terms of driving texture alone, this Peugeot 4008 is really solid, especially its chassis, which can be described as "stable as a cow", and the century-old master chassis tuning is really not lip service, because each of its dynamic tuning engineers has been rigorously certified, and the team of tuning is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. So in 2021, this car won the first place in the CCPC Bump Challenge and the first place in the Elk test group, all of which can be done thanks to its master chassis tuning technology. And it also uses world-class suppliers, such as Michelin tires, Bosch ESP, etc., and its leading large brake disc is also one of the features, not only good braking effect, but also low noise.
Not only that, the car is still very high in safety, some time ago, this car was on the hot spot, that is, it was dragged and squeezed by a large truck after the body structure is still not deformed, which is a bit incredible. The reason why the Peugeot 4008 has such a high level of security is not by luck, but by its own hard power. Because its whole vehicle has 5420 solder joints, and the high-strength steel has reached 74.2%, such a material level gives it a very high level of safety, looking at the opponents in the same level, there are really few who are so willing to use materials. In addition to safety, the power of this car is also a major feature, this car is equipped with 1.8T and 1.6T turbocharged engine, this engine has a maximum of 211 horsepower, and the entire series is equipped with imported Aisin 8AT box, in such a set of power support, the car's 100 km fuel consumption is only 6.2L. In terms of power to compare the opponents of the same level, it is not difficult to find its strength, because the opponents of the same level are basically 1.5T, and the matching gearbox is also dual-clutch and CVT, and there are few equipped with this KIND of AT gearbox.
In general, there are many options for buying a car now, but there are very few that can meet the needs of our Chinese consumers in the three major pieces. And like the two cars I want to introduce today, in the three major parts really have the right to speak, first of all, the engine, their 360THP turbocharged direct injection engine for 8 consecutive years of award-winning engines, 230THP turbocharged direct injection engines are gold balanced efficient engines, 4 consecutive years to win the engine award, many awards have proved their strength. In the gearbox, although the aisin 8AT collocation is not the best, it is really rare to be willing to use the joint venture brand of the AT transmission at the same price, so it still has an advantage in the wave box. As for the chassis, not to mention, the chassis of the French car has always been recognized by the world as strong, and the master of the century has adjusted it to have a capital as stable as an "ox", and it has also won the title of champion in the elk test, which is proved by strength. So on the three major pieces, these 2 cars have their own highlights, so I don't know what you think of these 2 cars? Are they two good cars that have been ignored by the Chinese?
