The 100,000 yuan sports car is a very hot market, and the competition between Chinese brands is particularly fierce. SAIC MG launched MG 5 and MG 6, GAC Trumpchi launched Shadow Leopard, and Dongfeng Fengshen also came up with Yi Xuan and Yi Xuan MAX. Recently, Geely also launched a sports car - Binrui COOL, as a derivative of Binrui, it uses Geely's latest 1.5T engine is a highlight.
The Binrui COOL was upgraded to the "Racing Storm" on the basis of the Bingrui Energy Storm, and the front grille adopted the shape of a shield-shaped narrow stripe, and the more exaggerated lower encirclement made it look more aggressive. The headlight style hasn't changed much and blends in with the front grille, paired with the five lines bulging from the hood to make the front face look powerful.
Some of the new cars in the interior have also been greatly upgraded, the new "energy awakening cockpit" surrounds the cockpit with the driver as the center, and the function buttons on the center console have also been rearranged, and the choice of materials in addition to the regular leather wrapping, but also added some orange elements to embellish, to fit its more sporty identity. Of course, the new 10.25-inch meter and 12.3-inch central control screen also add some technical properties.
In terms of configuration, the new car is equipped with 17-inch wheels, reversing image, fixed speed endurance, automatic parking, electric sunroof, keyless entry, LED automatic headlights, automatic air conditioning and other configurations, while the medium and high-end models will also be equipped with three-finger flying screen, 540-degree panoramic image system, full-speed adaptive cruise, sports appearance suite, seat heating, automatic folding of rearview mirrors, 72-color atmosphere lights, on-board air purifiers, negative ion generators, active braking, lane keeping, lane departure warning and other functional configurations. The whole vehicle is more abundant in terms of configuration, and there are more auxiliary functions.
In terms of space, the new car length, width and height are 4710 * 1795 * 1455mm, the wheelbase is 2670mm, the body length is slightly increased compared with the previous generation model, but the wheelbase has not changed, and the riding space is comparable to that of the previous generation model. The height of 178cm sits in the front row of the previous generation of Binrui, adjusts the driving position, leaves a three-finger distance between the head, and goes to the back row, there are still two fingers left in the head space, and there are more than two fists in the leg space. The space can only be said to be enough, especially the rear head space, which is affected by the body design, and the head space is not rich. Whether the new car can be optimized in terms of head space is still unknown, and many friends with purchase intentions have raised the same questions.
The 1.5T engine can produce a maximum horsepower of 181 horsepower and a maximum torque of 290 Nm, which is matched by Geely's self-developed 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. This new powertrain allows Binrui COOL to achieve zero to 100 km/h acceleration in just 7.1 seconds, and the zero hundred results of competitors at the same level are basically at the 8 second level. In terms of fuel consumption, thanks to the black technology of the new 1.5T engine, the fuel consumption of Binrui COOL's 100 kilometers can also reach the level of 5.9L. However, the specific acceleration and fuel consumption results depend on the measured performance, and the official data is only for reference.
