Under the wave of consumption upgrading, young people are no longer satisfied with just being an ordinary family car that is just needed for transportation, and have turned their attention to SUV models with better sex, smarter and more personality. In the 150,000-level joint venture SUV market, Qashqai and Binzhi are both veteran players, while GAC Toyota quickly launched a new Fenglanda this year after the C-HR loss. So the question is, which of the three cars is the optimal solution for the 15-level joint venture SUV?
The models of this comparison were selected from the 2022 Qashqa 2.0L CVT flagship version and the 2022 Fenglanda 2.0L CVT premium version, which had a long time on the market and a larger terminal discount, so Xiaobian had to choose the highest priced 2020 220TURBO CVT flagship version.
Science and technology show strength, Feng Landa is slightly inferior
Many years ago, the car was still a means of transportation from point A to point B, and with the advancement of technology, today, the functions of new cars are becoming more and more powerful, and the "emotional communication" with consumers is also increasing. Can move the mouth to solve the problem will never let you hands-on operation, can listen to the song online will not let you be distracted by Bluetooth connection or carplay. In this regard, the performance of the three cars has its own advantages.
Qashqai is equipped with Nissan Nissan Connect Super Smart Connection, which is very rich in functions, mainly including remote control, voice control, online video, smart refueling and other functions. The voice control function can control navigation, Bluetooth telephone, air conditioning, AVM panoramic intelligent monitoring, driving recorder and many other functions.
Fenglanda has introduced the "Fengyun Yuexiang" Zhixing Interconnection Service, which can realize 14 intelligent services such as remote control, voice interaction, remote upgrade of in-vehicle system OTA, vehicle-home interconnection, remote air conditioning, and stolen tracking. In addition, Fenglanda supports mobile phone interconnection/mapping such as Huawei HiCar/Apple Carplay/Baidu Carlife, as well as many mainstream smart connection service functions such as online navigation, online video and audio, and Bluetooth music.
Binzhi is equipped with Honda CONNECT intelligent guidance interconnection system, including GPS real-time online navigation, road rescue calls, vehicle networking system and other basic functions, the function is relatively single, the car networking function only supports navigation, voice control also only supports making calls, does not support voice control navigation, air conditioning, multimedia, etc.
Overall, in terms of entertainment, although Fenglanda supports a variety of mobile phone interconnection, it is somewhat conservative and bland in terms of the Internet of Vehicles and OTA upgrades, which obviously cannot meet the expectations of most young consumers for smart travel.
Safety saw the real chapter, and the three cars were tied
Running in the city, leaving early and returning late, and driving must also play a twelve-point spirit, but if there is a smarter "partner", it is undoubtedly a lot of worry.
In terms of smart security, Qashqai's performance is very powerful. It is equipped with NISSN i-SAFETY intelligent active safety system, including EAPM throttle error correction, AVM panoramic intelligent monitoring, LDW lane departure warning, BSW lane change blind spot warning, IEB pre-collision intelligent brake, MOD moving object/pedestrian detection early warning, EPB electronic parking brake system, etc., to protect travel safety throughout the process.
It is worth mentioning that Qashqai is also equipped with Nissan ProPILOT super intelligent driving, which meets the L2 level automatic driving assistance system, and after one-click opening, it can realize the full speed segment intelligent cruise system, automatic start and stop and steering control functions. When running high-speed and urban congested roads, it can effectively alleviate driving fatigue and is very practical.
Thanks to toyota's smart security system, Fenglanda also performs well in safety. Active braking, lane departure warning and lane keeping assist are integrated, and the level of quasi-L2 autonomous driving is also achieved.
Binzhi is equipped with Honda SENSING Intelligent Driver Assistance System, which includes functions such as RTM Lane Shift Suppression System, LKAS Lane Keeping Assist, TSR Traffic Sign Intelligent Recognition, CMBS Collision Mitigation Braking System, and ACC Active Cruise Control. This system detects the movement position and speed of objects in front of it through a millimeter-wave radar, and then determines the size of the object through a monocular camera, thereby forming the identification of obstacles, vehicles, and pedestrians, reducing potential risks, not only making it easier for drivers, but also improving the safety of driving.
Overall, in terms of safety configuration, the performance of the three cars is very good, and the overall safety system is still in place.
Professionalism sees the foundation, Qashqai has a sense of quality
Excellent handling is a crucial measure of a car, and handling is directly determined by the power and performance of the chassis.
Qashqai adopts a professional SUV chassis based on the Renault-Nissan CMF platform, which is independently developed for the use of the SUV in all road conditions, providing excellent handling and safety. The Qashqai is equipped with a full-frame subframe, which not only effectively enhances the rigidity of the body, but also improves the stability and grip of the vehicle when passing through bumpy roads or steering.
The front and rear fully independent suspension layout makes the Qashqai can well suppress the body shaking when driving on bumpy roads, and when changing lanes or turning at high speed, it can also improve the stability and trackability of the vehicle, and achieve a balance between handling performance and ride comfort. 183mm high ground clearance with class-leading passability.
In addition, Qashqai is equipped with a 2.0L MR20-cylinder direct injection engine with ISS Intelligent Automatic Start-Stop System, which matches the new generation of XTRONIC CVT intelligent continuously variable transmission with a maximum power of 111 kW and a maximum torque of 194 N·m.
The chassis part, fenglanda is based on TNGA, using a combination of front McPherson + rear torsion beam, which is one of the few models under the TNGA architecture that uses non-independent suspension on the rear axle. In the face of large impacts such as speed bumps, the longitudinal impact in the rear direction of the car is a bit obvious.
Like Qashqai, Fenglanda is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, matched with a CVT stepless gearbox, with a maximum power of 126 kW and a maximum torque of 205 N·m.
Binzhi adopts a front McPherson-style independent suspension and rear torque beam non-independent suspension structure on the chassis, which is completely sufficient for daily travel, but in terms of comfort and handling, it is inevitably worse than the fully independent hanging Qashqai.
In terms of power, Honda has always had its own unique skills. Equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, The maximum power of Binzhi is 130kW, the maximum torque is 220N·m, and it matches the CVT stepless transmission, and the power performance is relatively good.
In terms of power, Qashqa and Fenglanda use 2.0L naturally aspirated engines, and Binzhi uses 1.5T turbocharged engines, which are completely sufficient for daily driving of three models. Compared with Fenglanda and Binzhi, Qashqai benefits from the CMF platform and the blessing of fully independent suspension, and the driving texture is obviously more outstanding.
Appearance is justice, and the three cars have their own characteristics
Most young people don't seek face, but they all like to pay for good things. All three cars use a family design language in terms of exterior design, which can be described as unique.
Qashqai applies the new Nissan V-Motion family design language, the overall fashion is young, and the texture is outstanding. V-shaped chrome trim strips, large grille, and cleverly fitted LED light clusters make the whole car look very delicate.
In the interior part of the car, the overall performance of the Qashqai is exquisite and light. The symmetrical center console design and the use of a large number of high-grade fabrics of soft leather enhance the texture. In addition, the D-type leather multi-function steering wheel, commonly known as the "Nissan large sofa", the ergonomic 3D somatosensory leather seats are not absent on the Qashqai, and the sitting sensation is very good.
In terms of appearance, Fenglanda still continues the Design Language of the Toyota family. In the front part of the face, Feng Landa changed the current design trend of "big mouth" and lowered the visual center of gravity as a whole. The middle net is diluted, and the sense of existence of the lower grille and the lower encirclement is quite sufficient, and the aura is not weak.
In terms of interior, it reflects the relationship between Fenglanda and Corolla, and the design and layout are full of familiarity. The three-spoke multi-function steering wheel, with a multimedia display with a central control suspension design, makes the new car's sense of technology get a good display. The fly in the ointment is that the Areas such as the Frontlanda Center Console and the Door Panel are all hard materials, and the comfort needs to be improved.
Binzhi adopts a design language similar to Honda's previous generation in appearance, and the front face adopts a wider glossy chrome trim to highlight the sense of sportiness. The wing-type LED headlights have exquisite internal shapes, with strip LED fog lights, which have a sense of high-grade, and the visual effect after lighting is also very good.
In terms of interior, Binzhi's performance can be said to be very decent. Embedded central control screen, three-frame steering wheel, horizontal pull air conditioning outlet, the design of the center console is still "very Honda", in addition to the material is acceptable, even in the touch screen is so popular at the moment, it is still only equipped with a slightly smaller size of 8-inch touch screen, retaining a lot of physical buttons, but fortunately the practicality is not bad.
In terms of design, everyone has different opinions, but overall, the Qashqai gives people a more exquisite feeling, Fenglanda is more practical, and Binzhi has not been greatly changed due to "service" for many years, which is somewhat aesthetically tired.
summary
For this level of SUV, it is not an easy task for any OEM to take into account the appearance and practicality, and at the same time to achieve achievements in the configuration of science and technology. In this respect, all three cars are competitive. Among them, Binzhi Power performed well, Fenglanda as a whole was decent, and Qashqai was more brilliant in terms of intelligence and driving control. Taken together, for younger users, Qashqai may be a better choice.
