Nowadays, if you want to gain a place in the increasingly fierce competition in the car market, the idea of young people can never be ignored.
Relevant survey data show that "18-25 years old" accounted for 36% of first-time car buyers. 05%, followed by "25-30 years old" accounted for 34. 88%, which means that nearly 70% of the first-time car buyers are less than 30 years old, which also intuitively proves that young people have become the main force of car market consumption, and seizing young people's preferences is equivalent to occupying the market dominance.
In fact, this is also an important reason for the major car brands to try to be young, and directly prompted a large number of car products that are facing young people on the market, which also makes many young people who are ready to buy a car fall into the "choice difficulty" force, take the popular Changan UNI-T and Honda X-RV on the market, if you have a budget of 150,000, how will you choose?
Then, next, we will look at the advantages and disadvantages of Changan UNI-T and Honda X-RV from the dimensions of appearance, interior and performance, and hope to provide some help for everyone's car purchase decision.
Face value PK: UNI-T takes the elements that young people like to the extreme
What are the design elements that young people like today? Technology, sports, fashion... These are all elements that young people value in particular. In the cognition of young people, the car is no longer a simple means of transportation, but also can be used to express their life propositions and self-personality. Therefore, the more distinctive the product, the more it can attract the attention of young people.
As an SUV created by Honda for young people, the X-RV follows the latest family design concept in design, and is more dynamic than honda's other models, including the sneakback roof design, black wheels and other popular car styling elements, which are also reflected in the X-RV, and the overall is still in line with the appetite of young people.
However, compared to the design of UNI-T, the X-RV is much more conservative! Howe is not an exaggeration to say that all the car styling elements that young people like have been interpreted to the extreme in UNI-T, especially the UNI-T 2.0T model.
First of all, the sci-fi borderless grille, which was pioneered by UNI-T, is not only the most recognizable iconic element of the UNI family, but also used by UNI-K and UNI-V, and even attracted the reference of many car brands.
Not only that, UNI-T's sharp split headlights, black suspended roof, UNI-T 2.0T's unique ionic blue body color, as well as 20-inch wheels, bilateral exhaust layout, hidden door handles, etc., all young people look forward to sports, technology, fashion These car styling elements are gathered in UNI-T.
It should be said that the X-RV is a kind of "vitality" in design, while UNI-T will be young people's high performance, personalization, sense of technology, sharp in design... The imagination of these words has been restored in the complete book.
Space PK: Size differences are significant, and the UNI-T interior is more advanced
Strictly speaking, UNI-T and X-RV are not the same order of magnitude in terms of size, but in terms of the price range of the two products, it is true that a pair of opponents who cannot ignore each other. This is also the reason why consumers always compare the two, after all, what you can get for the same amount of money is the focus for consumers.
In terms of size, UNI-T is significantly larger than X-RV, the former has a wheelbase of 2710mm, the latter has a wheelbase of 2610mm, and the wheelbase of UNI-T is 100mm longer than that of X-RV.
Not only that, in the design of the interior, as well as the materials used, quality technology, etc., UNI-T is also significantly better. The UNI-T aircraft-like cockpit has a strong sense of hugging, and adopts a dual 12.3-inch combined screen design, and the center console also adopts a design that is biased towards the driver's side, whether it is a technological atmosphere or a driving atmosphere, which is in place.
At the same time, the interior of UNI-T is covered with a large number of soft materials, as well as high-grade materials such as suede, and the texture and craftsmanship are impeccable. The sporty model even features yellow seat belts and yellow stitching, and other contrast designs as embellishments, which greatly enhance the sporty and stylish atmosphere of the car. In addition, it is worth emphasizing that in terms of configuration, UNI-T once again confirms that the Chinese series has an almost "crushing" advantage over the joint venture brand.
Performance PK: The starting and upper limits of UNI-T are much higher than those of X-RV
Not long ago, the relevant institutions released research data showing that the profit of Chinese cars is much lower than that of joint venture brands, among them, although there is an impact of brand premium, the core is that in the same price range, the sincerity of Chinese cars for consumers is higher.
Take UNI-T and X-RV, for example, 150,000 yuan can buy UNI-T's 2022 2.0T Sport Version Pilot, that is, the top model; while X-RV can only buy the 2021 220TURBO CVT Comfort Edition, that is, the entry-level version of the model with 1.5T power. It is obvious who UNI-T and X-RV give users higher value.
In fact, the UNI-T is much higher than the X-RV at the starting point and upper limit of the power equipment, the former has 1.5T power as the starting point, while the latter starts with only 1.5L power. At the user level, UNI-T can bring a better performance experience.
The XR-V is equipped with a 1.5T engine with a maximum power of 130 kW (177 Ps) and a maximum torque of 220 N·m, and the drivetrain is matched with a CVT continuously variable transmission.
In contrast, the UNI-T is powered by two turbocharged engines, 1.5T and 2.0T, and both are more powerful than the 1.5T engines on the XR-V! The UNI-T's 1.5T engine has a maximum power of 138 kW (188 Ps) and a maximum torque of 300 N·m, and matches a 7-stop dual-clutch transmission; the UNI-T's 2.0T engine has a maximum power of 171 kW (233 Ps) and a maximum torque of 390 N·m, which is matched by Aisin's 8-speed automatic transmission.
It should be said that the UNI-T equipped with 1.5T power better takes into account the power and economy, and the UNI-T equipped with 2.0T power can well cater to users who have more needs and expectations for passionate driving, which also indicates that the choice of UNI-T two power, that is, takes care of practicality, but also provides users with stronger playability!
Written in the end: By comparing UNI-T and X-RV, it is not difficult to see that although the two cars are mainly aimed at young people, they also have their own advantages, the characteristics are not the same, aesthetic preferences vary from person to person, and what users like is good. However, in terms of space performance, interior quality, and power equipment, UNI-T is more competitive and gives users a better experience and higher value. So, if you have a budget of $150,000, how would you choose?
