What car to buy with a budget of about 100,000 yuan? In the face of such a car purchase demand, most people will say Volkswagen Langyi, Nissan Xuanyi, from the sales ranking point of view, these two cars have indeed always been at the top of the sales list, but in fact, in this market segment, there are many product quality and cost-effective models to choose from, SAIC-GM Buick Vilang Pro is one of them.
Looking back at the "history" of the Buick brand in the Chinese market, in addition to the gl8 and century two high-end cars, Sail is also a meritorious model, "100,000 yuan to buy a Buick" attracted many people in that year, and the subsequent launch of Kaiyue and Yinglang are also star cars in the family car market. Kitten's Veyron Pro is a high-end model of the Buick brand in the compact car market, and the main benchmark models are Volkswagen Langyi and Nissan Xuanyi. Unlike the two hot-selling cars, the Veyron Pro is very sufficient in terms of power, the whole series is equipped with a combination of 1.5T engine + CVT gearbox, and its 1.5T engine is a four-cylinder engine with direct injection technology, which has a lot of temptation for those consumers who pay attention to power. All along, kittens have advocated that the greater the horsepower, the better, this is not to drive a fast car, but to deal with complex road conditions more calmly, such as driving air conditioning + full load in the summer do not need to worry about power, in the two-way two-lane winding mountain national road, you can overtake more calmly and so on.
1.5T four-cylinder engine is the eighth generation of GM Ecotec engine, which is an all-aluminum engine, the maximum power of 135kw, the maximum torque of 250Nm, compared to the Sagitar 1.4T of 110kw, 250Nm, the maximum power is 25kw more, and the previous 1.3T engine, it is not only the maximum power, torque more than 14kw, 10Nm, more importantly, there is more than one cylinder, is the Chinese people like the four-cylinder machine. The CVT gearbox that matches it, smoothness and economy are the main features. From the driving experience of a few days, the performance of this power combination is worthy of praise, the power reserve of the 1.5T engine is enough, the acceleration overtaking is very easy, and the acceleration ability to break through the hundred in less than 8s is enough for the family compact car, even compared with the Honda Civic, which is known for its fast acceleration, it is not at all inferior. The CVT gearbox combs the power very well, the smoothness is very good, and the start is very brisk, which is the setting that family car consumers like.
In the memory of many people, the American car is very expensive, but in the Veyron Pro, this concept to be changed, the kitten after more than 260 kilometers of test drive to get the apparent fuel consumption is 6.6L, even if you consider the error, to 100 kilometers of comprehensive fuel consumption will not exceed 7L, considering that the test drive route is Beijing morning peak from the North Fifth Ring Road to the East Second Ring Road, and then to the East Fifth Ring Road, such fuel consumption performance can be satisfactory. A more flattering point is that although this engine uses direct injection technology, the 92 gasoline can meet the demand, not necessarily like Volkswagen, turbo models need to add 95 gasoline, and some cars are even recommended to add 98 gasoline.
In terms of chassis structure, Veyron Pro uses a front McPherson independent, rear torque rod + Watt connecting rod non-independent suspension, although there is no big selling point in the structure, but it is not backward, Volkswagen Langyi, Bora, Nissan Xuanyi and other hot selling cars use non-independent rear suspension. The watt linkage can play a role in reducing the compression and extension amplitude of the suspension on both sides, ensuring the vertical motion relationship between the body and the axle, reducing vehicle roll and improving the stability of the corner.
As a family car, the adjustment of Veyron Pro is balanced, because of the relationship between Opel, some of GM's models have a clear European car taste, Veyron Pro is one of them, its chassis is biased towards a tough style, the filter of the shock absorber is also very crisp, the steering system is a family car orientation, the strength is lighter, making people feel very relaxed. Veyron Pro's goal is to be "all-encompassing", taking care of all aspects of performance and not letting people find obvious shortcomings. Measured by the standards of a family scooter, the dynamic performance of the Veyron Pro is very good, the acceleration is not slow, the driving is easy, and it is a car that makes people feel relaxed and comfortable.
Since it is a family car, the space inside the car must be the focus of consumers to consider, simply look at the body parameters, length, width and height 4664mm, 1786mm, 1472mm, wheelbase 2700mm; is the standard compact car average level, but because of the high body height and focus on the creation of space, the overall performance of Veyron Pro is very good. Kitten is a height of 1.8 meters, weighing more than 240 pounds of "special body", I adjusted the right sitting posture in the front row, the head space margin reached a punch; keep the front row still, I enter the back row into the seat, head space, leg space have a margin, and the leg space margin is not less than a punch. At the same time, because the floor in the middle of the back row is almost level, it is also acceptable to sit in the back row with three adults. In terms of overall space performance, the Veyron Pro is close to the level of traditional mid-level cars, and the space performance is better than that of Volkswagen Bora, Toyota Corolla/Leiling, Nissan Xuanyi and other similar models. If you are a friend who likes a large space, you can experience it for yourself.
At present, the Veyron Pro sold on the market was listed on September 10 last year, the price range is 129,990 ~ 158,900 yuan, simply look at the price, it seems not low, but if you consider that it is 1.5T start, this price is not expensive, Langyi automatic model starting price of 124,900 yuan, 1.4T model reached 146,900 yuan. The overall configuration level of Veyron Pro is not low, and practical configurations such as head airbags, reversing radar, electric sunroof, automatic LED headlights, and exterior mirror heating are standard in all models. The medium-equipped models are also equipped with lane departure, lane keeping assist, active braking, reversing image, etc. Unfortunately, the Veyron Pro series does not have adaptive endurance, hoping to be able to improve it.
Write at the end
As a buick brand of high-end compact car, Veyron Pro is a car that understands the needs of consumers, after the replacement of the four-cylinder engine, its comprehensive competitiveness has been significantly improved, if you pay more attention to space, power and cost performance, and want to buy a model from the domestic first-line car companies, Veyron Pro is a very good choice. At the same time, velang Pro's 8-year or 160,000-kilometer powertrain warranty is also very solid.
