The core three major parts of the car and the safety performance have always been the focus of users when purchasing vehicles. Whether it is through some of the parameters of the book, or the consumer himself to the 4S store test drive test, in a short period of time, in fact, can not have a deep understanding of it. In contrast, the evaluation of some authoritative media or car critics can be used as a reference. Among many car critics, the "district chief" has always been the representative of "dare to tell the truth" and "refuse to be recharged".
Recently, in one of his programs called "Mayor's Game", the "District Governor" gathered five 200,000-level mainstream joint venture SUVs, namely the Volkswagen Tuyue 1.4T two-wheel drive comfort version, toyota Veranda 2.0L CVT two-wheel drive luxury, Peugeot's new 4008 1.8T creative version, hyundai Tucson L 1.5T premium version, and Ford Ruiji 2.0T two-wheel drive Yaoxiang version, and conducted a full range of hardcore violence tests.
The test includes elk test, brake performance test, acceleration test, bumpy road test, etc., to verify the power and control of the vehicle in an all-round way. Of course, the hardest core is the gravel hillside rollover test, which directly pushes the vehicle down the gravel-covered hillside to verify the safety of the vehicle. After some intense testing, who among these five cars can have the last laugh? Let's take a look.
Power acceleration competition, sharp edge, Peugeot 4008 is not divided into up and down
In the five-wheel test, the 100-meter acceleration is mainly to test the power acceleration performance of the vehicle, but the difference between this time and the ordinary 100-meter acceleration test is that five vehicles need to be tied to five identical large iron boxes and carry the weight for 300 meters acceleration. The reason for this is that our common 100-meter acceleration test mainly tests the acceleration of the front section of the vehicle, and in our daily use of cars, we need to take into account the situation that the vehicle is fully loaded and driving for a long distance. This requires us to set more stringent test standards. At the beginning of the test, under the same weight-bearing premise, the first to run 300 meters was Sharp, followed by the Peugeot 4008. The results of these two cars are very close, 15.1s and 15.3s respectively, and both are very good.
From the perspective of the difference in powertrain, Ruiji is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, with a maximum horsepower of 248 horses and a maximum torque of 393 Nm, the parameters are indeed very dazzling, and they belong to the upstream level in the same class. The Peugeot 4008 is equipped with a 1.8T turbocharged engine, matching the Aisin 8AT transmission imported from Japan, with a maximum horsepower of 211 horses and a peak torque of 300 Nm. Although from the perspective of parameters, the Peugeot 4008 is not as good as the sharp edge, in the actual measurement competition, the acceleration performance of the two cars is almost the same, which proves that the power achievement rate of the Peugeot 4008 is relatively high. The acceleration performance of the other three cars is quite different from the first and second places, and they all ran away from 16s, which is not unrelated to the fact that they are all equipped with small displacement engines. But then again, this test is to choose models of similar price points, so it is still relatively fair.
The handling performance competition, Peugeot 4008, Sharp Ji performance is eye-catching
Elk tests and bumpy road tests verify the vehicle's handling performance and body stability. The elk test is simply a high-speed hedge, and the speed is set at 72KM/H. In this link, the first place was the Peugeot 4008, Ruiji won the second place, while the German Car Tuyue, which is known for its handling, and the Japanese and Korean cars Veranda and Tucson failed the test. The Peugeot 4008 and Ruiji also played a 74KM per hour overtime, but unfortunately, Ruiji encountered an obstacle in the last emergency bend and unfortunately lost. In the case of continuous sharp bends, the peugeot 4008 did not leave the ground with four wheels, and the body did not tilt too much, which was obviously not yet the control limit of the Peugeot 4008. In the test of the bumpy road, the Peugeot 4008 performed equally well, winning the second place.
In fact, such excellent handling performance is due to the PEUGEOT 4008's CLDR master chassis tuning. As a brand with a century-old track gene, the non-independent suspension of the torque beam of the Peugeot 4008 adopts a closed variable section rear beam, which is light in weight and has good roll stiffness, which effectively improves the handling of the whole vehicle. At the same time, the dual rubber bushing and second-order cushioning block technology used can also bring more stable and comfortable driving control performance to the vehicle, creating the ultimate handling experience that does not lose the car.
Safety and quality are hard and hard, and the Peugeot 4008 comes out on top
Braking performance tests and gravel hillside slide tests test the safety of the vehicle. The braking test is selected to be carried out in the dry ground, and the braking distance is less than 42m as a challenge success. In this link, Tuyue and Veranda both failed to challenge and ruiji scored at the bottom, Peugeot 4008 won the first place with a score of 39.16m, and Tusheng passed the test with a thrilling score of 41.3m. It can be clearly seen that the braking performance of the Peugeot 4008 is the best, which is not unrelated to its fierce cost in braking equipment. You know, the Peugeot 4008 is equipped with a Michelin e-Primary "Listening" tire for 1,000 yuan, which is more than double the price of Tuyue's tires, and it has better grip performance. In addition, the large-size brake discs of the Peugeot 4008 also use BREMBO's patented heat dissipation technology for better braking performance. Coupled with the blessing of the leading Bosch ESP9.3 system, the braking performance is further improved, and the braking performance is truly realized.
The French system is recognized as a conscience car, and the German system is known for its rigor and quality, so in the free sliding link of the gravel hillside, the Peugeot 4008 and volkswagen Tuyue were selected for testing. The slope was steep and covered with gravel, and the car was pushed directly off the top of the slope in the test, waiting for it to fall freely. Such a violent test can verify the overall safety quality of the vehicle more than our usual static pressure test. Judging from the test results, the Peugeot 4008 won the crown again. After experiencing violent rolling, the body frame of the Peugeot 4008 is still not deformed, the A-pillar and D-pillar are intact, and the doors can be opened normally. In contrast to Tuyue, its A-pillar has been significantly bent, the body frame has been deformed, and the door can no longer be opened. The most fatal thing is that the rear of the car directly hit the dent. If a similar collision occurs in reality, how much risk the occupants sitting in the back row will suffer is really a bit too dare to think.
This is because Tuyue uses 1200Mpa of high-strength steel, which is not as strong as the 1380Mpa of continental ultra-high-strength steel standards. The proportion of high-strength steel used in the Peugeot 4008 vehicle is not only as high as 74.2%, but also the tensile strength of the steel in key parts has reached 1600MPa. What is this level? To give you science popularization, 1600MPa steel is mostly used to make aircraft structural parts. The peugeot 4008's solid materials are indeed worthy of the name.
brief summary
After several rounds of testing, it can be seen that the performance of Ruiji in terms of power and handling is relatively excellent, while the German car Tuyue is somewhat poor in safety and control, and Tucson and Veranda deserve to say that it is comfort, which is also in line with the impression that Japanese and Korean cars have always been in everyone's mind. The best comprehensive performance is the Peugeot 4008, which has no shortcomings in power, control and safety. Moreover, through actual measurement, it has also been proved that the product performance of Peugeot 4008 is not only at the data level, but also its solid materials and excellent driving control strength can withstand the test. In addition, the official direct price of peugeot's new 4008 Chuangxiang edition participating in the test is 167,700 yuan, whether it is a thoughtful price or excellent product quality, in the 200,000 mainstream joint venture SUV, peugeot 4008 is indeed a veritable high-quality model.
