Easy car original said to take off where the car, everyone may not be very familiar. I asked my friends around me if they had ever heard of Feifan Motors, and the answer was basically that they hadn't heard of it. However, when it comes to the life of Feifan Automobile, everyone is not unfamiliar at all, to put it bluntly, Feifan Automobile is a product under the Roewe brand of SAIC Group.
The product I experienced for everyone this time is Feifan Automobile MARVEL R, 2021 SAIC Feifan MARVEL R after-drive PRO version, the manufacturer's guidance price is 241,800 yuan (hereinafter referred to as MARVEL R). From the version information of the vehicle, it is not difficult to find that this is a rear-drive model, so what does the PRO word on the version information represent? Can you give you some enlightenment? Don't worry, please read on.
Appearance: The height of the actual car retains the shadow of the concept car
MARVEL R adopts the official design concept of collective wisdom, the visual center of gravity of the whole vehicle is backwards, the main visual of the front face is concentrated in the license plate frame area, and the three-dimensional form makes the whole vehicle more impactful. The LED light strip at the front of the car is connected to the daily running lights on both sides, and the split LED headlights have two LED strips built-in, which are very recognizable on the road. The actual car I experienced this time is highly consistent with the concept car I posted in the text, and the design of the modeling is highly consistent, but some details have not been preserved due to regulatory reasons.
On the side of the body, it can be found that marvel R is a standard SUV shape, the body uses a curvature engine waist line, the whole waist line is not only smooth through, but also the requirements for the manufacturing process are also high, which is rare in the same level. The door handle adopts the popular hidden design, which not only has a beautiful shape but also reduces the wind resistance coefficient of the vehicle, which is also the trend design trend of pure electric vehicles. The luggage rack on the roof only needs to add a pair of vehicles, and bicycles and skis, which are not convenient to place in the car, can easily carry large items.
The PRO version of the model is equipped with a 19-inch concentrated energy modeling wheel as standard, using a three-dimensional cutting, five-spoke design, combined with blackening treatment, concentrating energy in the center of the rim to form a powerful energy body. The tires are equipped with Michelin-based Haoyue 4 silent tires, with double-layer soundproof glass windows, and the vehicle's NVH performance is excellent. There is also a small shark fin air intake behind the front wheel arch, and the details add to the sportiness of the whole car.
The tail end is a cross-cutting taillight, which echoes the shape of the front of the car and stretches the visual width of the vehicle. The light strips arranged with arrows inside are directed, directing the visual focus to the central LOGO area. Very fine chrome trims have been added under the taillights, and the air intake design of the imitation air force kit is added on both sides to enhance the overall texture.
Interior: Practical and simple and full of technology
If I had to summarize the MARVEL R in three key words, I would describe the interior of this car in terms of simplicity, technology and luxury. Only a small number of physical buttons are retained in the car, the air conditioning outlet is also hidden design, the cockpit is covered with leather in a large area, and the instrument panel has a punched design, with a two-color design, which brings a sense of luxury comparable to the luxury car.
The two-spoke steering wheel is also one of the highlights of the interior, and the steering wheel adopts novel and unique design techniques such as hollowing out the lower end and floating buttons, reflecting the concept of lightweight and sporty. And through the use of multi-material to increase the three-dimensional sense of the steering wheel, the two-spoke steering wheel in the design and process requirements are higher than the three-spoke requirements, the same price model is not common.
12.3 inch full LCD meter, SIMPLE UI style. The size of the central control screen has reached an astonishing 19.4 inches, the touch panel with Corning Gorilla Glass, the resolution of the central control screen has reached 1200 * 1600, and the display effect is very outstanding. However, the size of the central control screen is too large, which also affects the design of the entire central control to a certain extent, and squeezes the space of the central control handrail box.
It is worth mentioning that the front air outlet of the MARVEL R is equipped with a configuration never seen on other models, and the air outlet automatically sweeps the air. And this sweep function is not the kind of early Toyota Crown model, only supporting the left and right swing of the sweep. Marvel R's air-conditioning sweep function automatically tracks the front row according to the actual sitting position of the front row personnel, so as to accurately blow the body and head. Although it is not difficult to achieve this function from a technical point of view, it is not easy to appear on models at this price point.
The Pro version I got was made with Alcantara+ breathing hole leather seats, which were great for ride comfort in winter and summer, and further enhanced the texture of the interior. Marvel R's rear row uses one-piece seats, and the rear cup holder also has a cover, which can be seen that the manufacturer is very willing to pay the cost. The 175-tall experiencer sits in the car, and the space is still at ease.
Marvel R excels in terms of conventional storage space, and the location is more reasonable, due to the electric car, the original "engine compartment" position also has an additional storage "trunk" space is also considerable, can easily accommodate a 20-inch luggage. The rear seats support proportional reclining, and the entire trunk space is also relatively regular after being reclined.
Performance: 0-100km/h acceleration time 6.64s
In terms of hardware for driving motors, the MARVEL R is equipped with Hair-pin permanent magnet synchronous motors. The dual-motor rear-drive version of our test this time has a peak power of 137kW and a peak torque of 410N·m, which meets the daily travel needs without pressure, and the power battery part, the MARVEL R is equipped with a ternary lithium battery capacity of 69.9kWh, and the NEDC comprehensive endurance reaches 505km.
In terms of chassis hardware, marvel R uses front McPherson independent suspension + rear multi-link independent suspension, the PRO version of the model I test drove this time uses rear dual motors, while the top model uses four-wheel drive three motors, that is, front wheel single motor, rear wheel dual motor. In terms of gearbox, the entire series adopts a two-speed automatic transmission.
Our test, in the asphalt paving closed section of the road, accelerated test process, I originally thought that the rear wheel will be idle and slippery, the actual situation is not so, the rear wheel can firmly bite the ground, basically can be said not to slip, the whole acceleration process of a strong sense of push back, can last until about 60km / h, only slightly recession, if it is not a careful experience, even do not feel the obvious decline, by reading the data on the tester can also support my point of view.
Compared to the acceleration ability, the braking ability of the MARVEL R is a bit insufficient. During the brake test, the "foot feeling" of the brake pedal I don't like this foot feeling very much, I feel that people are not very confident, when ABS intervenes, the foot bounce feeling of the pedal is more obvious, giving me a feeling of "can't be stepped on". The results of the test are also average, and the final score of marvel R in the 100-0km/h test is 40.45m.
When marvel R is driving on urban roads, the flexibility of the chassis is relatively excellent, and after more obvious undulating sections, marvel R's chassis feedback is also transmitted to the car through the form of "floating", rather than the sense of bumps. In other words, the bumpy feeling of the road surface is difficult to convey to the car.
However, the disadvantages of the MARVEL R chassis tuning are also very obvious, although in the face of large road undulations, the chassis can be resolved by "floating" the body. But in the face of continuous bumps, the filtration ability of the chassis is more stretched. At this time, the chassis will show a "loose feeling", and the driver can clearly feel that the control of the suspension from the chassis is not strong enough.
The MARVEL R's NVH is still quite good, with 80km/h wind noise being quite light when driving on the city loop, and noise control from the road surface is also excellent, with tire noise barely audible. When the acceleration pedal is fully pressed, you can hear the "buzzing" sound of the motor's work, there is no sound wave, and you can also judge whether the motor is running at low speed or at high speed based on the frequency of the buzz, I guess this is the idea that the engineer deliberately left to everyone.
Editor's comments: The appearance of marvel R should be said to be relatively easy for everyone to accept and like, the interior is also good, and the configuration is all available. Driving quality is also OK, everyone is most concerned about the mileage problem, the manufacturer nominal NEDC working conditions under 505km, I actually drove to about 470km, this endurance should be said to be quite good. As for what consumers think, we will wait and see.
