In recent years, more and more consumers are willing to choose 6-seater or 7-seater models. The reason for this is that the 6/7-seater model has more space inside the car and more seats, which is more convenient for consumers with 2-3 children at home. In addition, 7-seater cars can now enjoy six years of exemption from inspection, and there is no trouble with the car. The Wuling Jiachen we are going to talk about next is a 7-seat family car, although it is not officially listed at present, but many model information has been released.
Wuling Jiachen is actually a new model in the Wuling global silver standard car series, before it, Wuling has launched two silver model models of Capgemini and Xingchen, but Capgemin is a 6-seat layout, Xingchen is a 5-seat layout, Jiachen is equipped with a standard 7-seat layout, and the other two models have made a positioning distinction. Of course, Jiachen will naturally continue the high quality of Wuling Global Silver Label, and I believe that it is also the same as Capgemini and Xingchen, with universal global manufacturing standards for production.
Jiachen's exterior design continues the family design language of the Wuling Silver Standard car series, and the style is biased towards youth, but its body length reaches 4785mm, and the whole vehicle will look and feel more slender than the stars that are SUV. In terms of the seat layout in the car, Wuling Jiachen chose a 7-seat layout of 2+2+3, which is conducive to entering and exiting the third row. The car's seat structure is also modeled after that of the opera house, with the seat height raised sequentially from the front row to the rear seat, and the rear passengers can also enjoy a relatively generous frontal view, similar to a "moving living room".
In the central control area, Wuling Jiachen chose a large wood grain trim cover, with dark brown seats, so that the look and feel of the car is biased towards a calm home, compared to the light interior, brown will be relatively resistant to dirt. At the top of the center console, you can see a multimedia screen with a size of 10.25 inches, which will be equipped with the Ling OS Lingxi system independently developed by Wuling. Prior to this, the Ling OS Lingxi system had been installed on the Star and Capgemini 280T.
On the Ling OS Lingxi system, there is a unique avatar Xiao Wu and Xiao Ling, which can interact with the user and react differently after recognizing the voice command. Moreover, the voice of Xiao Wu /Xiao Ling is not a monotonous mechanical sound, but is voiced by the well-known voice actor Yama Shin, so its voice sounds playful and cute, and it is not so rigid. Moreover, the Ling OS Lingxi system comes with various mini-games, which can cultivate small pets in the car, and give them dressing up and upgrading. For the children at home, this kind of mini-game can make them less boring when traveling.
In terms of speech, the Ling OS Lingxi system can achieve more accurate and fast speech recognition, and the voice commands spoken are basically error-free, which has been verified in Xingchen and Capgemini. In addition, the Ling OS Lingxi system can be visible and speakable, the content displayed on the screen can be directly controlled by voice, and when using third-party APP, it can directly use voice to say the song list or playlist displayed on the screen.
In addition to the Ling OS Lingxi system, Wuling Jiachen also has many driver assistance configurations, such as ESP body electronic stability system, electronic steering power, panoramic image, reversing image, electronic handbrake and other configurations. In the process of daily use of the car, the help of panoramic images is relatively large, especially for models with relatively large body sizes such as Wuling Jiachen, which allows novice drivers to more easily reverse into the warehouse and reduce the possibility of scratching and bumping.
In terms of power, Jiachen will use a 1.5T engine, matching the analog 8-speed CVT transmission, with a maximum power of 108kW and a peak torque of 250N·m. Moreover, Jiachen has a relatively rich intelligent configuration and driving assistance configuration, which also makes this model that entered the 7-seat family car market relatively late, can be called "boutique".
