Toyota Alpha, as a high-end MPV, has an absolute influence in the MPV market, driving it out to give the owner face, very suitable as a business car. The comprehensive strength is outstanding, but the price of nearly one million will undoubtedly turn away many people. After all, for most consumers, the economic conditions are limited, at this time, people will target some MPV with a low price and balanced performance in all aspects, such as trumpchi M8.
Trumpchi M8 is known by many as the "Chinese version of Alpha" because it has the same powerful aura as Alpha, but its starting price is less than 200,000 yuan, of course, it also has a high-end model priced at nearly 400,000 yuan, meeting the needs of consumers with different economic conditions. With the continuous enrichment of models, it has become a "dark horse" in the domestic MPV market, and the Lingxiu version is one of the series.
The Trumpchi M8 Lingxiu Edition has a powerful aura, giving people a feeling of stability, and the horizontal and vertical design method creates a powerful aura and helps to expand the driving space. The large irregular front grille occupies almost the entire area of the front face, and the surface is neatly arranged with multiple through-type chrome plated metal strips, which are simple but not monotonous. The front face is connected to the headlight group, and the internal structure of the headlights is complex, which adds a sharp feeling to the front face again after lighting.
The side of the body is a typical MPV, using a lot of horizontal and vertical modified lines, and the rear is equipped with electric sliding doors, bringing users a full sense of riding ceremony. The multi-wheeled hub is exquisitely shaped, the rear contour is almost a square, and the through-type taillights look conspicuous and basically have no decoration. The master version and the lingxiu version of the model use different design languages, the main difference is the front grille, the aura is more powerful, and it is precisely because of the listing of the master version model that it has the title of "Chinese version of Alpha".
The interior design is simple and stylish, and there is no excessive emphasis on the sense of technology, the central control screen and the air conditioning outlets on both sides are jointly designed in a black paint panel, the shape is quite chic, but the visual effect is slightly bulky. The front of the co-pilot position is wrapped in a large piece of soft leather, and the surface is embellished with stitching to help enhance the texture of the interior. The shifter is very wide and connects to the center console to form a natural tilt angle, which is also very convenient for the user to operate.
There is a lot of practical storage space around, and the hollow design under the shifter allows users to store more belongings. However, some users reported that the center console design is relatively high, and it is not very convenient when controlling the steering wheel. It doesn't feel very comfortable driving for a long time. The second row of seating space is still very good, the two independent seats support sliding back and forth, and after the backrest is completely lowered, the passenger can be almost lying flat.
The third row of seating space is decent, the legroom is more abundant, and the backrest angle is more relaxed, so it will not feel too tired during the long ride. Unfortunately, the cushion is a bit short, and the support for the legs is not very good. The third row of seats only support forward folding, and can not form a flat space with the trunk, and after folding forward, it will also affect the riding experience of the second row of seats, so it is still lacking in terms of space flexibility.
One thing to be sure of is that there are a lot of fine storage spaces designed around the seats, and the storage of personal belongings is quite good. If consumers pursue a more advanced driving experience, it is still more recommended to choose a high-end model, as for the driving experience is biased towards calm and comfortable, there is no problem in dealing with daily travel. Overall, the performance of this model is balanced in all aspects, although there are still many details that need to be optimized and upgraded, but there are no obvious shortcomings. Suitable for consumers with limited economic conditions and the pursuit of balanced performance in all aspects, if you just want to choose a daily family car, choose a low-end model, if you want to meet the needs of commercial travel, you can consider high-end models.
