SAIC-GM Buick attaches great importance to the domestic compact market, in the case of two volume models, last year it launched a higher positioning of The Veyron Pro, filling the gap in Buick's boutique A-class car market. The Buick Veyron Pro has two different exterior designs at the same time, namely the GS with a more sporty appearance, and the regular version of the model I test drove this time. After experiencing the Buick Veyron Pro GS, it also made a positive evaluation of the sportiness it provided, and replaced it with a more "good home" ordinary version, can it also continue the good impression of the Veyron Pro GS?

In terms of design, even without the blessing of the GS kit, this Buick Veyron Pro can still provide a rare sense of sport in the same class. The new front face design still has a high degree of recognition, and the design throughout the logo is consistent with Buick's models, and the chrome trim links the two side lights, making the entire front face quite spirited.

At the same time, the sharper headlight design, with the design elements of the air intake style on both sides, coupled with the black front lip equipped at the bottom of the bumper, makes the visual center of gravity of the entire front face lower, creating a stronger sense of movement visually.

In the treatment of the side lines, the more compact front and rear suspensions make the overall proportions tight, while creating a slender feeling in the proportions of the body, and the slightly upturned tail also has a look similar to a hatchback, making the tail lines more lively.

The rear part of the car is relatively ordinary, but there is still a more careful design in some details, such as the layout of the high brake lights is quite distinctive, and the middle rear fog lights are also very performance flavorful. However, the interior design of the taillights still has room for improvement, except for the brake lights and the width indicator lights, which use LED light sources, and the rest are halogen light sources, which will look slightly cheaper.

The interior part is still relatively large a change compared to the previous Veyron, the double screen is the most eye-catching point of the entire interior, and it is not a flat surface under a closer look, but a curved screen shape with a slight arc. The center console adopts an irregular design, and the functional area in the middle is inclined to the driver's side, paying more attention to the driver's experience.

Our test drive is the Pro 533T Fun Edition, as the top version of the model, in terms of configuration and materials can be said to exceed the expectations of this class of models. Soft materials are used in the center console, which feels good to the touch, although the lower part is made of hard plastic, but it will not make you feel cheap.

In addition to the material, the two 10.25-inch screens of the center console are worth taking out separately and detailed, the display style of the instrument does not use a fancy design, and the layout of the two sides showing the speed and speed is still relatively conventional. Interestingly, the vehicle view in the instrument, whose lamps will be linked to the vehicle, is a more interesting design.

In addition, the car machine part is also sincere, the new eConnect 3.0 system is fully functional, covering most of the current mainstream functions, in addition to multimedia and navigation, third-party entertainment software is also more comprehensive, and support mobile phone mapping, there is no short board in function. In the actual operation experience, the system's response to touch input is rapid and quite stable, and there is no obvious stuttering when different software is opened repeatedly, and there is no crash.

Another surprising part is the space, from the objective data, the veyron Pro length, width and height of 4688X1786X1472mm, wheelbase is 2700mm, the same level belongs to the more mainstream configuration. The front seats can be adjusted in a large range, and the author's height of more than 185cm can quickly find a suitable sitting position, which is indeed a bit unexpected.

At the same time, the rear space is not compressed, in the case of retaining the front seating posture, the rear space is also very spacious, whether it is longitudinal space or horizontal space, there is no sense of oppression, while riding 3 passengers is not too much pressure, of course, the flat design of the middle floor is also conducive to its spatial performance.

In addition, in terms of human configuration, veyron Pro did not disappoint, each door has a storage compartment that can be used to place items, and the central armrest is also equipped with a cup holder, which is impeccable in the storage space. In addition, the rear exhaust air outlet and USB socket are also standard in this version of the model, and in the rear configuration, the performance of the Veyron Pro is worth learning from the opponent.

The Buick Veyron Pro is powered by a GM 8th-generation Ecotec 1.5T engine with a maximum power of 184 hp and a peak torque of 250 N·m, matched by a simulated 7-speed CVT transmission. The two can give a high score in tacit understanding, the engine has a good power output in the front section, the general road driving is quite brisk, the CVT gearbox does not have the impression of laziness, on the contrary, it gives a very direct response, and the driver's cooperation has a tacit understanding.

The overall output characteristics of Veyron Pro pay more attention to a "cotton" word, it will not give you power at a certain node, you can feel the entire acceleration process, the engine is full of confidence, inadvertently can accelerate to the legal speed limit. Such a dynamic characteristic is undoubtedly a blessing for the rear passengers, even if they wantonly step on the accelerator, there will be no sudden change in body dynamics, except for the sound of the engine pouring into the carriage, there is no physical discomfort, occasionally find fun, and will not receive complaints from passengers.

The handling has not faded because of the removal of the GS sportswear, and the chassis specifications still follow the combination of the front McPherson rear torque beam + watt connecting rod, and pay more attention to the sense of heaviness in the adjustment. You can feel that the rebound of the shock absorber is very fast, and the body attitude treatment is more appropriate, and there will be no sense of thinness. The response and directivity of the steering wheel can also be praised, the front of the car for the steering input is more in place, the chassis support for fast-paced driving is also relatively in place, there will be no feeling of light fluttering or shaking.

But this does not mean that the Veyron Pro is a hardcore model, the Veyron Pro can bring a little sporty flavor in the handling, but it is essentially a home model, although it has a good limit and fault tolerance rate, but the large body roll under the fierce driving, and the scream of the Hankook tires that focus on wear and energy saving, let you feel their protest against you. However, the solid brake foot feel and excellent deceleration effect can quickly help you get back to your senses.

After a day of test driving, the evaluation of the Veyron Pro will add a "comprehensive", compared to the radical GS model, this ordinary version of the Veyron Pro is more acceptable to most people and more recognized by the family. In the compact market where the Veyron Pro is located, a car has to take on more tasks, this Veyron Pro 533T Fun Edition can provide a good driving experience at the same time, in the configuration and humanized design also has a good performance, a variety of model options can also meet the needs of consumers of different budgets. If you need a model that meets every aspect, the Veyron Pro is a choice worth considering, and in some ways it may surprise you.
