So far, the Mulibu has been around for 58 years. He is a full 50 years older than the Driver's Pie.
Enter "Maribor" in the article search bar and you can find more than 30 articles. Especially in 2015-2016, when driving Shipai was founded, it is not an exaggeration to say that this is the car we have written about the most.
We drove through North America, wrote Father's Day texts for it, and printed postcards for it.

(Father's Day |.) Father, the one who decides what car you buy)
In this era of luxury cars, I personally make no secret of my love for the Chevrolet brand. Not only because I've been the owner of Chevrolet, but also because,
In 8 years, it is it that accompanies us to become stronger.
In 2016, when we were doing Self-driving in North America, it was only because our writer nie Xiaoyao (the author of "Someday Will Arrive") in the United States asked if we could negotiate a rental car across the United States. Later, we saw that we could rent the American version of The Maribal XL in the United States, and without hesitation, we recommended it to her and made an appointment. It was a "big" selection that we didn't even have a conference call at the time.
We believe in every copywriter, and in the hands of different people, every car can create an extraordinary journey with them.
In 2012, Liang Chaowei came to the Chinese market with Mai Ruibao and "Heart Return to Mulibu". In 2014, the Driving Pai was established. In February 2016, The Maribao XL was officially listed, and in April of the same year, @Jianghu people said that Nie Xiaoqiao and the Driver's Pie began the new American version of the Maribao XL that was listed in the same period around the world to cross the United States.
In 2016, around the Murey Bao XL, we did the ceiling-level selection at that time in Guangde and Chengdu for the chassis, power and appearance, and even used a long test car to make a record of "how to shoot a light painting night blockbuster with 500 yuan". (Unfortunately there was no video recording at the time).
In October 2017, the Driver's Pie Video Group was officially established. In March 2018, the first issue of the video column "100 Mile Challenge" was launched to test the real fuel consumption of gasoline vehicles for 100 kilometers.
In September 2018, "100 Mile Challenge" ushered in the first and only "100 Mile Challenge Comparison Test" in history, featuring The XL, Artez and the new Accord purchased by the driver at that time.
In 2020, with the advent of the epidemic, the driver's faction has experienced the days of daily live broadcast scheduling at home, and has also experienced the glory of the first domestic A-class auto show in 2020 to report the first traffic on the whole network.
In an environment full of uncertainty, as a creator, all we can do is do a good job of self-renewal and content iteration.
Also in 2020, the Maribao XL ushered in a new powertrain, of which the 2.0T+9AT version not only continued to serve as the flagship in the Chevrolet sedan sequence, but also as we said in 2016 that "it is the best 2.5L sedan on the market", the new Maribao XL continues to be the 200,000 yuan sedan with the best 2.0T engine.
In 2021, I once again paid attention to this old friend, which was on the latest Zhejiang Lap Speed List officially released by Zhejiang International Circuit in July - Chevrolet Mai Ruibao XL, which debuted in Zhejiang, broke the fastest lap record of a mass production car within 200,000 yuan with a single lap performance of 1′54"168.
The reason why I was impressed by this news is because I have been to this track many times with Mercedes-Benz AMG, and just two months before the Maribao XL refreshed the "fastest lap of the mass production car within 200,000 yuan" in Zhejiang, Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series was announced at the Zhejiang race venue, this supercar equipped with a 4.0L twin-turbo engine, at that time also brushed a lap speed, the best lap time was 1′32"555.
Although the two cars are not comparable in price to value, the numbers never lie. From this achievement, it is enough to see the strength of the 2T9 power combination of the Maribao XL.
What is 2T9? This new power combination is composed of the eighth-generation Ecotec 2.0T intelligent variable cylinder turbine engine and the 9-speed HYDROMATIC manual transmission, which has the advantages of low torque, smooth shifting, energy saving and fuel saving. At present, the powertrain is installed in the three main models of the Chevrolet Trailblazer, The Explorer and the Maribor XL.
Entering March 2022, drivers will turn 8 years old. We have iteratively upgraded the overall content, from visual packaging, to recording venues, to the launch of two new columns for new energy vehicles "Speed Anxiety" and "True Wild Reality" for SUVs - and even we have replaced the new logo, flat color blocks, and also penetrated into many small details in the video and graphics.
The "driving orange" we like, from the day it was born 8 years ago, means that the enthusiasm in our hearts will never be extinguished, and with these jumping color blocks, we will light up the industry we are in.
Also in March, in the hands of another media colleague, the Maribao XL once again set a new lap record in Zhejiang: 1′45"640. This bright powder + blue Maruibao XL has been modified, it is rumored that "naked car 150,000, modified 70,000 yuan", the cost is mainly used in lightweight and handling, in addition to the original engineers adjusted the engine program to increase the 10 horsepower, "the power system has not been upgraded."
The total price of more than 200,000 Mai Ruibao XL, this achievement can be described as a million-class sports car shame.
The ability to withstand the power system directly brushed out the performance comparable to the million-level supercar in Zhejiang, which is undoubtedly from the strength of the "black technology" engine of GM. The 8th generation Ecotec 2.0T intelligent cylinder turbine engine powered by the Mribao XL is also the first drive system in the industry to be developed from the source of design for the China VIB emission standard.
Based on the concept of "single cylinder optimization", the 2.0T intelligent variable cylinder engine adopts the highest combustion efficiency of 0.5 liter single cylinder displacement (single cylinder displacement is the highest combustion efficiency at 0.33-0.5L) and the best bore stroke ratio, with high roller flow airway, concave top piston and other optimal design, supplemented by Tripower three-stage intelligent cylinder change technology, ATM active thermal management system and other cutting-edge technology, the engine efficiency to the extreme, but also to reduce emissions.
And 2.0T engine with the 9-speed manual transmission and its synchronous development, the application of more than 60 general patented technology, more compact size, higher efficiency, smooth and reasonable gear ratio distribution, and equipped with a new generation of ETRS electronic gear device, according to different working conditions to select intelligent shift logic, to achieve a balance of performance and fineness, to achieve quality, performance, reliability and fuel economy to achieve a comprehensive improvement in quality, performance, reliability and fuel economy.
All in all: relying on GM's strong technical precipitation in the era of fuel engines, this 2T9 power system is not only strong in performance, but also does not cost fuel.
And at this intersection where the old and new era alternate, what is the point of overturning a million supercars in 2022 with 251 horsepower (the original 2.0T engine is 241 horsepower)?
It just proves that the times are moving forward, but people's perception of speed is still tending to be diversified. Some people are shocked by the dizzy feeling of the motor, but others are still fascinated by the power of the mechanical burst.
We still believe that there is no right or wrong choice in the face of true love.
Electricity and fuel, as the energy source of the driving force, their essence determines the difference in their texture, not to mention, each person has different preferences and self-perception capabilities.
There always needs to be a car, and there are always those people who are willing to do whatever it takes for those irreplaceable feelings.
As in April 2016, we printed a batch of postcards. The postcard reads,
"Life is not only about the present, but also about poetry and distant fields.
You came to the world with your bare hands, desperate for the sea in your heart. ”
This song by Xu Wei was released on March 18, 2016. The night I heard it, I wrote it down on the paper I had in my hand. A few days later, when we designed the postcard, it was printed in early April 2016.
In the picture, the red One Maribor XL is intoxicated in the night of Chengdu, and the silver one is in the famous California Highway 1 sun, which is disturbed by the sea breeze.
At the end of the 5 travelogues, Nie Xiaoyao used an advertising picture of Chevrolet. It reads:
“building a better way to see the U.S.A”。
She wrote in the last sentence of the article,
"Create a better path and see this beautiful world!"
After 6 years, standing in the early spring of 2022, even if there is not much good news, we can hold a cup of coffee in the sunny afternoon and look at these pasts.
Thanks to those years that are either passionate or busy, but never seem to be dull, the long timeline strings together our 8 years, but also strings together with the memories of Maribao XL.
I've gone from 32 to 40, but The Maribao XL seems to be always so young.
"Desperate for the sea of hearts".
Accompany me to become a strong teenager, we encourage together.
