If a year ago you asked Uncle Che to buy a C-class luxury car of IKEA, both business attributes and certain handling pleasure, then Uncle Che will definitely recommend you to see the BMW 5 Series, the reason is very simple, because it was the only choice at the time, but from the perspective of actual use needs, BMW 5 Series is not the best choice.
At the 2021 Shanghai Auto Show, the SAIC Audi A7L was officially unveiled, and even because of its unique styling design, it triggered a hot discussion on the whole network. Many people do not understand, why did SAIC Audi choose A7 for its first car? Why is it deeply "Sinicized"? Therefore, in the eyes of the vast majority of consumers, SAIC Audi A7L has a bit of a "non-trivial" feeling. But Uncle Che believes that this just proves saicidal Audi's market research and decision-making ability, because isn't this really a C-class luxury car that can really be called IKEA?
Why is the SAIC Audi A7L really meeting the standards of IKEA? First from the appearance point of view, as soon as you see the Audi logo, I believe that the words "administrative car" and "official car" will appear in everyone's mind, and the business atmosphere will be immediately reflected. In addition, SAIC Audi A7L also inherits the design aesthetics of the imported Audi A7, and the sports design elements such as frameless doors, wide-body body and large-size rims are absent, perfectly combining business attributes and sports style.
Specifically, in terms of the front of the car, the large size of the hexagon widens and lowers the visual effect, and with the complex bumper line, it looks very fierce. The addition of the S-Line kit also gives it a sporty atmosphere of RS models. In order to highlight the difference with A6L and A8L, SAIC Audi A7L also changed the logo and the color of the net to black, I believe that this original factory has its own black samurai style design, young people will be very fond of it.
After the abolition of the slipback styling, how to make the SAIC Audi A7L retain elegant lines while looking less administrative has become a problem. However, this is obviously difficult to fall the designers of SAIC Audi, and the further elongated rear of the car not only makes up for the regret of not slipping back, but also brings a more stretched visual effect, which must be a big thumbs up for the designer!
In terms of size, the saicid Audi A7L has a length, width and height of 5076*1908*1429 mm and a wheelbase of 3026mm. The wheelbase of more than 3 meters means there is no need to worry about legroom when riding in the rear. Most importantly, the 1908mm body width also makes it easy to surpass the Audi A6L, BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class, providing users with extremely generous lateral space.
The rear shape of the car is basically the same as the imported version of the Audi A7, and the width has not changed, but because of the change in the shape of the trunk cover, it looks more wide and low.
In terms of interior, SAIC Audi A7L adopts the same design as the imported Audi A7, and the digital cockpit concept is at the forefront of the industry, and even if it is a few years later, it will not produce aesthetic fatigue. The straight lines and three screens, supplemented by a large number of piano paint panels, hold the sense of technology and luxury just right.
In terms of smart cars, saicel Audi A7L is equipped with a 10.1-inch display that supports popular applications such as mobile phone WeChat. It can also improve efficiency by scanning the QR code in the car application and synchronizing mobile phone account information and usage preferences.
In terms of intelligent driving, as the first mass-produced model of the Audi brand to realize 5G/V2X technology, the SAIC Audi A7L can cover a variety of smart travel scenarios and has the ability to interconnect with all things. The leading off-the-car intelligent parking system allows users to leave the vehicle and drive in and out of the automatic parking control through the mobile phone App. At the same time, SAIC Audi A7L is also equipped with a number of scientific and technological configurations such as 3D panoramic imaging system and active lane departure assistance system, which directly fills the technical attributes.
In terms of power, the SAIC Audi A7L is equipped with two turbocharged engines, 2.0T and 3.0T, respectively. Among them, the 3.0TFSI V6 engine has a maximum power of 250 kW, a maximum torque of 500 N·m, and an acceleration of only 5.6 seconds per 100 km/h. With the help of a 7-speed S-tronic dual-clutch transmission and a 48V light hybrid system, it can bring a surging and agile driving experience.
Since it is an Audi car, how can it be missing the quattro four-wheel drive system? In addition to the entry-level model, the SAIC Audi A7L series is equipped with the Audi brand's proud intelligent quattro four-wheel drive technology, which can accurately predict the road surface, distribute power flexibly and freely, and even achieve 0 to 100% torque distribution in extreme cases such as high-speed cornering.
In terms of improving comfort, the SAIC Audi A7L is also equipped with active air suspension, which can adjust different chassis heights according to the driving mode, and the vibration filter performance is more advanced, calmly coping with various road conditions.
At the same time, the DAWS dynamic all-wheel steering system has the function of rear wheel follow-up steering. At low speeds, the rear and front wheels rotate in reverse to reduce the turning radius. At high speeds, the rear wheels rotate in the same direction as the front wheels, giving the vehicle a better balance.
In addition, the SAIC Audi A7L also adopts aviation-grade multi-layer silent glass, which brings excellent NVH performance and further highlights the sense of honor of executive-class luxury cars.
Uncle Che summed up
