With the advent of the second child era, the children in the family plus the elderly, many people have become the first demand for on-board space, and the last eyes will fall on the seven SUVs and MPVs.
The general seven-seat SUV adopts a 2+3+2 layout, while the MPV generally adopts a 2+2+3 layout, and different layouts affect the SUV and MPV's riding space.
The third row of most seven-seat SUVs is basically barely emergency use, the space that can be ridden is very small, and the third row needs to fold the second row of seats to get on and off, and the third row of adults feels very poor.
The MPV design takes into account the utilization of space and the passenger's ride comfort, and the seats are flexible and comfortable. And after folding the third row, the MPV can also get a good storage space, and the MPV is better than the SUV in terms of riding.
At present, the mainstream MPV models are basically Toyota Xena, Honda Odyssey and other foreign brand models, but the price is very high, basically more than 200,000 or 300,000.
But fortunately, there are already independent brands that have noticed the MPV market and launched MPV with low prices and high configurations.
As the first product of Wuling Silver Label, Wuling Capgemini has made a good start for the high-end of Wuling.
Wuling Capgemini obviously adopts a different design from previous products, with a large area of grille, chrome trim decoration and Wuling's silver logo, which looks exquisite overall.
The design of the split headlight group is full of personality and quite a sense of technology.
From Wuling Capgemini's length and width to 4875mm and 1880mm respectively, the proportion of the body is very elegant and coordinated, the rear design is flat and stable, and the standard keyless entry is very convenient.
The interior of Wuling Capgemini is very simple overall, and the diamond-shaped central control design is biased towards the driver's side, which is more convenient for operation when driving. Wrapped in a large number of soft materials, the grade is high and comfortable.
Capgemini adopts a "2+2+2" layout, focusing on the concept of "big four seats", and the third row can be used to cope with different use scenarios.
When the third row is released when it is necessary to carry people, it can usually be stored under the floor, and when the third row is stored up, it can be flush with the floor, which can form a 1514L trunk space.
The most enjoyable thing is the setting of the second row, which can be said to be very "luxurious".
The second row has two independent seats that support front, rear, left and right four-way rail adjustment, a separate seat belt for mothers to take care of their children, and an electric leg rest (except for the Elite model).
And the second row can be completely flat, and with the first row completely down (removing the headrest) can even make a bed.
Wuling Capgemini has a 1.5T engine, with a maximum horsepower of 147Ps and a peak torque of 250 Nm, but recently Wuling upgraded the 1.5T technology to launch a new engine with a maximum horsepower of 177 Ps and a peak torque of 290 Nm.
In fact, 147 horses can already meet the daily needs of most people, and the gearbox provides a 6-speed manual transmission and a CVT transmission that simulates 8-speed transmission.
However, as a family car, the CVT transmission is recommended to make daily driving smoother and the city commute will not be very tired.
Among them, the automatic flagship version is only 10,000 more than the automatic premium version, but with more active braking system, fatigue driving reminder and other safety assistance settings and luggage rack, electric seat adjustment, seat heating and other configurations, I think it is very cost-effective.
Add 9,000 more pieces to get the more powerful 280T automatic flagship version, in addition to the power of the increase, you can also get upgraded intelligent voice control system and rearview mirror automatic folding and other functions.
As the second MPV of Trumpchi, trumpchi M6 is younger than the big brother M8 design and the price is more ground-friendly.
The Trumpchi M6 has a simple and attractive appearance, using a family-style Lingyun Wing 3.0 design, the front grille is equipped with a number of chrome trims, with a sharply shaped headlight group, and the front face has a high degree of recognition.
The whole body line design is very square, quite a Japanese MPV flavor, whether it is carrying people or carrying goods is very convenient.
The interior of the Trumpchi M6 is simple and practical, available in black and white.
The front seat of Trumpchi is made of fabric or imitation leather, but unfortunately there is no electric adjustment to choose, but the seat filling is very soft, and the riding experience is good.
The wheelbase of the Trumpchi M6 went to 2810mm, which is in the upper middle level in the MPV of the same level, and the two or three rows of seats can have a good riding space.
The maximum width of the second row of cars is 1535mm, the legroom can go to 950mm, and it is equipped with 4-stage adjustable armrests, which is very ergonomically designed.
When the third row can be completely folded to level with the floor of the car, the trunk volume is reduced to 1100L, which can meet the diverse travel needs.
At present, the Trumpchi M6 can choose between the regular version and the Pro version.
Among them, the deluxe version of the same price, the Pro version has one more head side airbag than the ordinary version, upgraded to a 10.25-inch central control screen and rearview mirror folding, heating and a series of functions, but it will be less than an engine start-stop technology.
However, at the same price, I feel that the safety and other comfort configurations are more cost-effective.
The Pro version of the exclusive type, more expensive than the luxury version of ten thousand, the configuration of more than 360 degrees reversing image, the height of the body has also increased by 35mm, the sunroof has also been replaced by a panoramic sunroof, as well as electric seat adjustment and seat heating, I think this cost performance is also very high.
With the increasingly anxious competition in the electric vehicle SUV market today, BYD continues to expand its advantages in the MPV market, and the current SongMAX series has been upgraded to new energy.
SongMAX New Energy continues to adopt the family-style "dragon face" front face design, and the large area of black grille and chrome trim strips on the front face is domineering and exposed with the slender light group design.
The overall design from the side to the rear of the car adheres to the rounded and full style, and the overall design is more like the traditional MPV design.
Song MAX new energy interior design is very simple, equipped with a 12.8-inch rotatable large screen, but also attracted many car owners to choose BYD one of the important reasons.
Song MAX New Energy is available in six- and seven-seater models, and the whole series is equipped with imitation leather wrapped seats as standard, which are fully filled and feel very comfortable to sit up.
The second row of seats with a relatively large range of front and rear adjustment, head space can go to a punch and three fingers of space, the most thigh space can do two punches, very sufficient riding space, even if it is a large height of one meter eight to sit up space is more than enough.
The third row of head also has three fingers and four fingers of the legs of the space performance, when the third row is closed, up to 652L large volume, daily family travel can be satisfied.
Compared with the previous two, because the latest model of Song MAX New Energy has replaced BYD's strongest hybrid system DM-i.
At the same time, you can get a green card, which is very friendly to the small partners in the limited license city, and you can also save a lot of oil money.
And because the choice is a hybrid system, the acceleration is very energetic, Song MAX new energy in the car space and comfort at the same time, to give the driver a very good driving experience.
I recommend users to go directly to the DM-i version, recommend the premium version of it.
Although the pure electric endurance is only 51km, fixed as a 6-seater car, it is 3,000 yuan cheaper than the 105km honorable type, and adds auxiliary driving functions such as lane keeping and offset warning, as well as full-speed adaptive cruise and automatic headlights.
If you want pure electric endurance of 105km, I recommend the flagship version, which is 10,000 yuan more expensive than the premium version, and at the same time, the panoramic sunroof is upgraded, and it has a choice of 6 and 7 seats.
At present, there are not many people who choose MPV, not only most of the MPV design is still commercial, but also because the road development in some areas is still relatively backward, there are more potholes, and the choice of SUVs has more advantages in passability.
However, with the advent of the era of three children and the increase in family members, the five-seater model gradually cannot meet the needs of these target users.
With the deepening of urbanization, the traffic road conditions are getting better and better, more people hope that the whole family can sit comfortably and travel together, the MPV market will slowly develop, and there will be more MPV for home use.
