On April 13, the new Mondeo was officially launched, launching a total of four models, the guidance price of 159,800-21.68 million yuan, as a joint venture mid-level car, this starting price is indeed quite sincere. This article analyzes the highlights of this car, and combs through the configuration differences of the next four models for everyone to see which one is most recommended.
Brief analysis of the model
Mondeo's front shape is basically the same as the previously listed EVOS, using the latest family language, the net has been blackened, the sense of movement is obvious, and the split headlights are popular elements nowadays, everyone is using it, so it looks a little homogeneous. The side body section presents the look and feel of a sports car, the roof line is extremely streamlined, and the door handle is hidden design, which has a new energy temperament. The rear shape of the car is relatively tough, personally feel that the design is not as good as the front of the car, it seems to be relatively hasty, and the taillights are naturally also popular through-channel design.
The highlights of Mondeo's interior are far greater than the exterior, the 1.1-meter-long screen runs through the center console, consisting of a 12.3-inch full LCD instrument and a 27-inch screen. In addition, elements such as flat-bottom steering wheel and knob-type gear shift mechanism are also more popular with consumers, and there are almost no physical buttons in the entire center console, which is very simple.
The Mondeo's body length, width and height are 4935*1875*1500mm, and the wheelbase reaches 2945mm, which is exactly the standard of the C-class car if it were a few years earlier. The front and rear space are relatively spacious, but subject to the positioning of the streamlined roof and fuel vehicles, the head space is slightly cramped, and the rear floor has a certain bulge.
In the power part, the new Mondeo series is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine with a maximum horsepower of 238 hp and a maximum torque of 376 Nm, and the transmission part is an 8AT automatic transmission. Combined with its guide price, such a power specification can satisfy the vast majority of people. The chassis part, using the common front McPherson + rear multi-link form, no problem, all at this price, certainly not extravagant to double wishbones to hang.
Configure the analysis
First look at the configuration performance of the entry-level model, that is, the standard configuration of the whole series, considering the price, the configuration performance is general, but there are passive pedestrian protection, keyless entry, active grille and other configurations, but in the driver assistance, seat function performance is more general, fixed speed cruise is not, it can be said that the biggest gain for users who buy the door version should be the power combination of 2.0T+8AT.
Compared with the start-up version, the luxury model has finally become richer in performance, with a complete set of driver assistance systems, while the LCD instrument and central control screen have also been changed to a large size. The fabric and function of the front seats have been upgraded, and the automatic headlights and adaptive far and near light functions have finally been installed, and the configuration of this model has been well equipped for daily use.
Compared to the Deluxe, the Configuration of the Supreme has been upgraded in all aspects, with tires being replaced by a more sporty 19-inch, the cruise system being upgraded to full speed, and the sunroof being upgraded to segmented. In addition, there are B&O audio, in-car mood lights, facial recognition and other functions, the experience pays more attention to detail and technology.
Let's take a look at the performance of the big top, first of all, the conclusion, not cost-effective, if the budget is not particularly abundant, not recommended, only more than the Supreme model out of 360-degree panoramic image, front seat heating / ventilation and other functions, and in order to fit the st-Line's sporty temperament, the transmission has more manual mode.
Model recommended
Mondeo 2022 EcoBoost 245 Luxury
Recommended reason: The luxury type has achieved a balance of price and configuration, first of all, as a sub-low match, the price is not expensive, and secondly, the configuration performance is enough for daily use, such as driver assistance system, full LCD instrument, large size central control screen, front seat electric adjustment and other high-end functions, cost-effective is the highest in the car series.
Summary of the full text
Ever since versailles C5 X made a difference in the mid-range car market with a high price-performance ratio, Mondeo has copied the same approach, which consumers are naturally happy about. This reflects the cruelty of the current mid-range car market from the side, lagging behind the First Group Army, and it is necessary to come up with the mentality of fighting bayonets to open the market. In general, I am personally optimistic about the future performance of Mondeo, after all, the price is in place, the power system specifications are high, and it is more friendly to young people.
