Recently, Ford announced the pre-price of the 2022 Mondeo, the entry-level model is only 159,800, and the top model is less than 220,000, plus the entire series uses a 2.0T+8AT powertrain, which can't help but make people feel very cost-effective; on the contrary, the Buick Regal of the same American B-class car, although the guidance price is much more expensive than the 2022 Mondeo, but the current market terminal has a lot of discounts; so it seems that Ford Mondeo and Buick Regal are very attractive, let's take a look at whose comprehensive strength is stronger.
First of all, the author explains the basic situation of the two cars in advance, the 2022 Ford Mondeo (hereinafter referred to as "Ford Mondeo") pre-priced 159,800-219,800 yuan, a total of four models, the whole series uses 2.0T+8AT, and there is no high and low power. The guidance price of the 2022 Buick Regal is 196,800-249,800 yuan, a total of three models, of which the entry-level model is a 1.5T engine, and the other models are 2.0T engines, all equipped with a 9AT gearbox; at present, Buick Regal has a discount of about 40,000 yuan for the entire series, and there may be thousands of yuan floating in different regions. If you only look at it from the surface, the two cars are on par, but who is more worth buying, you also have to find the answer through the following specific comparison items.
Although the two cars are the same American brand B-class sedan, but the design style of the appearance is not the same, Ford Mondeo line sense is more intense, at first glance it looks very muscular, the sports atmosphere is more intense; and Buick Regal is a traditional American car feeling, the body shape is more rounded, the visual effect is wider, and the size of the front net is more restrained, the overall style is more inclined to the luxury route; in contrast, the appearance of Ford Mondeo will be more in line with the aesthetics of young people, and Buick Regal is more moderate.
The lines on the side of the body of the two cars are relatively simple, there is no very complex design; ford Mondeo front and rear fenders have a very obvious rib line, highlighting the front and rear of the car's sense of strength, while Buick Regal uses the traditional through-waist design, so that the side shape is more fluid; in general, although the two cars are different in style, but the author believes that they are in line with the public aesthetic, who is better looking, can only be the wise and the wise.
The rear of the car has a clear difference between the two cars, the rear of the Ford Mondeo is more layered, the design of the taillights and exhaust port is somewhat similar to the Ford Mustang, the sense of sport is stronger; and the rear of the Buick Regal is relatively flat, although there is no flaw, but there is no highlight, the author thinks that the rear of the Ford Mondeo is better.
In terms of interior, Ford Mondeo uses a penetrating joint screen, which can be extended to the co-driver position, the sense of modernity and technology is better, and the daily use is more convenient, and the author speculates that the degree of intelligence of the car should also be higher; and the central control area of Buick Regal is slightly shabby, the overall layout is still the old design of a few years ago, and the size of the central control screen is not large, so in the center console area, Ford Mondeo is more in line with the modern trend.
In terms of seats, Buick Regal is also a mixed material of leather and fur on the entry-level model, but the entry-level model of Ford Mondeo is only a fabric seat, and the material that wants to turn the hair can only buy a medium and high-end model, relatively speaking, Buick Regal is a little thicker.
In terms of body size, the length and width of The Ford Mondeo and buick Regal are not much different, the height difference is larger; Buick Regal in order to create a streamlined appearance, the height of the car is lowered, the head space in the car will inevitably be affected, and the height of the Mondeo is about 4 cm higher than the Buick Regal, and the performance of the head space should be better.
In terms of rear space, because the wheelbase of the Ford Mondeo is more than 10 centimeters longer than Buick Regal, the legroom is better, but the middle platform in the rear of both cars has a bulge, if the middle of the seat is not comfortable.
In terms of power, the Ford Mondeo series is equipped with a powertrain of 2.0T+8AT, which accelerates by 6.5 seconds per 100 kilometers; while Buick Regal retains the 1.5T engine on the entry-level model, and the whole series is equipped with a 9AT transmission, which accelerates to 7.1 seconds on the 2.0T model; although the power of the two vehicles is not much different in data, there is a gap of more than half a second in the acceleration of 100 kilometers, and the Ford Mondeo accelerates faster.
In terms of fuel economy, the fuel consumption level of the 2.0T models of the two vehicles is almost the same under the WLTC conditions, but the Ford Mondeo only needs to add No. 92 gasoline to meet the use, while Buick Regal needs to add No. 95 gasoline, so Ford Mondeo has more advantages in terms of fuel costs.
When you buy a car, you must be indispensable to the configuration comparison between the competitors, the author today also from the two car series to find two sets of heat and attention of the model, considering the Buick Regal terminal market offers, respectively, the pre-priced 179,800 Ford Mondeo 2022 EcoBoost 245 luxury model comparison guide price of 210,800 Buick Regal 2022 652T smart enjoyment model, and the pre-priced 219,800 Ford Mondeo 2022 EcoBoost 245 ST-Line compares the Buick Regal 2022 GS Premium with a guide price of 249,800.
In this group of comparisons, although the Buick Regal guidance price is more expensive, the terminal price of the discount is several thousand yuan cheaper than the pre-price of Ford Mondeo, but we can obviously find that the active and passive driving safety configuration of Ford Mondeo is more perfect, and the Buick Regal is seriously missing in this regard, after all, more than 100,000 low-rated Toyota Corollas are equipped with active safety configurations. In terms of other configurations, the LCD instrument and the central control screen size are also the places where the difference between the two cars is large, and other details are reflected in the table.
The models in this group of comparisons are the top version of the two cars, so the configurations that can be used daily are complete, but the Buick Regal GS sport attributes are stronger, such as sports seats, variable suspension and other configurations, and the Buick Regal GS price is cheaper than the ST-Line price of Ford Mondeo after the discount, so if you have a higher pursuit of sportiness, friends recommend the Buick Regal GS.
Comprehensively, if you want to buy a car for ordinary household use, it is more recommended for Ford Mondeo, after all, the car has more space, the low-end version is configured higher, and can add 92 gasoline, which helps us to use the car every day; if you have a higher pursuit of sports equipment, it is more recommended to buy the GS version of Buick Regal, the configuration of sports is higher, and the terminal price is cheaper.
