How many kilometers is enough? How low is the fuel consumption to be called a province? Nowadays, many independent brands have plunged into the hybrid market that takes into account both fuel economy and endurance. The top few are BYD, Great Wall, Geely, Chang'an, and Chery. At present, oil prices are soaring, and hybrid seems to have become the most balanced choice at the moment, not only low fuel consumption, but also no mileage anxiety.
Recently, two domestic hybrid SUV models have just been launched, they are Geely's Hoshigoku L Raytheon Hi · X Hybrid Edition and Changan's UNI-K iDD, from the feedback of the market of these two models, are very high attention. So today we will compare, if you happen to be interested in these two cars, you may wish to continue to look down.
Here I would like to say first that for the limited-license city, as a plug-in hybrid model of UNI-K iDD has a policy advantage, the vehicle can be on the green card, which also means that in most of the limited-license cities it does not have the trouble of lottery; secondly, as a new energy model, it can also enjoy the preferential treatment of purchase tax, that is, in terms of the final landing price, UNI-K iDD's advantage in price will be more obvious.
Let's take a look at their guide price first, Star-Over L Thor Hi · The guide price of the X hybrid version is 17.17-18.37 million yuan, while the guidance price of UNI-K iDD is 17.69-19.29 million yuan. As mentioned above, because plug-in hybrid models have policy advantages and can be exempted from purchase tax, even if everyone comes up with the top version to compare, the final landing price of UNI-K iDD still has a certain advantage.
After looking at the license and price, it is necessary to look at the hybrid system. Although all are hybrid power, the Star-Cross L Thor Hi · The X hybrid version is a petro-electric hybrid, while the UNI-K iDD is a plug-in hybrid. The gasoline-electric hybrid can rely on its own recharge to charge, without relying on external charging equipment. Honestly, if you don't have a fixed charging pile to charge at two o'clock and one line every day, Xiaobian recommends giving priority to Xingyue L Thor Hi · X Hybrid Edition.
On the contrary, if you have a fixed charging pile, then UNI-K iDD plug-in hybrid is also very worth considering, its NEDC pure electric mileage is 130km, I believe that it can meet the majority of car owners and users 2-3 days commuting distance, that is, you can basically use it when it is a pure tram. In this way, the choice is relatively simple, if there is no fixed charging parking space, Xingyue L Thor Hi-X is more suitable, if you have your own parking space, after installing the charging pile, low-cost daily travel, then UNI-K iDD is more fragrant.
However, based on two different architectures, as well as the relevant data released by the final official, the hybrid system on the Hoshigoe L Thor Hi-X is more powerful based on the 100kW motor, while the UNI-K iDD side is more dependent on the engine, and the acceleration performance is not as crisp as the Hoshikoshi L Thor Hi-X.
As the flagship SUV of the house, Hoshikoshi L Thor Hi · Both the X Hybrid Edition and the UNI-K iDD are tasked with raising the brand's tone while also taking on the task of selling sales. Technological configuration, space are their main theme.

Judging from the performance of the top configuration of these two cars, they are not bad. First of all, the configuration is still relatively close, the advanced driving assistance system, rich comfort configuration have shown the performance of the flagship model. Of course, there is also a slight difference between the two, Hoshikoshi L Thor Hi · The X hybrid version pays more attention to the driver's feelings, provides 5 driving modes, and in the smart hardware, it is also equipped with 5 cameras, 5 millimeter wave radar, and 8 ultrasonic radars to make driving safer. The configuration of UNI-K iDD is obviously more focused on technology, passive pedestrian protection, hidden door handles, gesture control, facial recognition and so on are equipped. Therefore, there are still big differences between the two.

In addition, although the star-cross L Thor Hi · The X hybrid version positions the compact SUV, and the UNI-K iDD positions the medium-sized SUV, but after the actual test ride of the editor, the gap between the two vehicles is not large. In terms of riding space, in terms of the 172cm tall editor, sitting in the Hoshikoshi L Thor Hi · When the driver's seat of the X hybrid version is adjusted to the lowest and maintains a reasonable sitting position, there is still one punch head space; when the front seat setting remains immobile and sits in the back row, the head space has more than one punch, and the leg space reaches more than two punches, which is more excellent. In addition, in terms of storage space, Hoshikoshi L Thor Hi · The X Hybrid edition is equipped with multiple storage spaces, the rear cup holder is also equipped, and the deep depth and flat layout of the trunk also make it have a good volume.
(UNI-K iDD)
As for the UNI-K iDD, when I sat in the driver's seat, the seat was adjusted to the lowest and maintained a reasonable posture, and there was still a punch space in the head; the seat setting remained unchanged and sat in the back row, the head space was still 4 fingers, and the legroom exceeded 2 punches, which was still relatively good. In terms of storage space, the UNI-K iDD vehicle is also equipped with multiple storage spaces, and the rear cup holder is not absent. In terms of trunk space, although UNI-K iDD is leading in size, its more personalized appearance compresses part of the interior space, and its depth and height are slightly inferior to Hoshigoku L.
(Hoshikoshi L Thor Hi · X Hybrid Edition)
Overall, although the size of the UNI-K iDD is ahead, the seating space and storage space do not show an absolute advantage, but in some aspects are slightly inferior, can only say that the Star Over L Thor Hi · The X Hybrid Edition has better space utilization. But of course, Hoshikoshi L Thor Hi · The X Hybrid Edition and the UNI-K iDD are sufficient for most everyday use scenarios.
Combined with its own urban policies, is it more cost-effective to choose a blue card or a green card? Combined with its own use environment, it is more appropriate to choose oil-electric hybrid or plug-in hybrid.. As Chinese brand cars that are favored by many consumers, they have not only ushered in innovations in the power system, but also took into account consumers' needs for fuel economy and policies and regulations. If you've struggled with how to choose between the two, I believe you already have the answer.
