Recently, Geely CMA high-end series China Star and "Only This Green" reached a strategic cooperation, focusing on the exploration and integration of "automotive technology and traditional culture". As a core member of the Chinese Star Team, Geely Xingrui also shouted out the bold words that comprehensively surpassed the value of the strong joint venture brand products, how strong is it? On March 24, the cover reporter conducted a test drive in Chengdu.
This event was held in Chongzhou Daoming Bamboo Art Village, and the test drive project also reflected the ancient charm of "ten-sided ambush". Three projects were set up on the spot: bamboo forest tracking, drumming and sharp blade flying knife, which tested geely Xingrui's 540-degree image transparent chassis, power, control, and black technology such as remote parking. In addition, the event also joined the mainstream joint venture brand players of the same level to PK.
As Geely's first sedan based on the CMA architecture, Geely Xingrui has achieved a cross-level level in terms of size, configuration and power. In terms of size, its length reached 4785mm, and the wheelbase reached an absolutely leading 2800mm, which also brought a very spacious riding experience to the drivers. Sitting in the anti-gravity comfort seat and listening to the melodious music brought by the BOSE sound, the overall riding experience is very good.
In particular, it is worth mentioning that the geely Xingrui series is equipped with a 2.0TD engine as standard, with a maximum power of 140 kW and a maximum torque of 300 Nm. This is very sincere compared to the small displacement engine of the same level of joint venture brand. In the drumming competition project, we drove Geely Xingrui and another joint venture brand sedan to test on the winding road, especially when going up the mountain, Xingrui has obvious advantages in power, and as a model with a longer wheelbase, the handling is not inferior to that of the joint venture strongman.
Intelligence is a highlight of Geely Xingrui, 540 ° panoramic perspective image through 4 high-definition wide-angle cameras, the vehicle for 360 ° all-round monitoring, while monitoring the bottom of the car 180 ° monitoring. In the bamboo forest tracking project, we covered the windshield and side windows of Xingrui, and only relied on the 540° panoramic perspective image function to easily drive the car out of the bamboo forest maze.
In addition, it also supports fully automatic parking and remote control automatic parking, in the blade flying knife project, we experienced its remote control parking function, in the empty space without parking space line, it can realize the function of custom parking space, as long as the vehicle finds a parkable parking space, we can get off the car, only rely on mobile phones can park the vehicle into place, for novices, this function is particularly convenient.
As the high-end sequence of geely brands, China "Star" carries the mission of breaking the strong market pattern of joint ventures and continuing to lead the improvement of China's automobile value. Through this test drive, we further experienced its extraordinary strength, and its sales performance along the way also proved that consumers recognized its strength.
