When you think of Subaru, what comes to mind? Horizontal opposed engine, four-wheel drive equipment, ultra-high performance, coupe posture, etc., in short, this brand is related to sports. As the new energy market becomes the mainstream of the automotive industry, many car companies have changed the power unit of the model, subaru is no exception, its first pure electric model was released, the name subaru SOLTERRA.
The new car is built from the e-Subaru platform, Toyota's models have also used this platform, so the new car looks like there are some Toyota car shadows, before Toyota also released an electric car less than bz4x, Subaru This new car is similar to Toyota's car, but the new car will also be listed this year, and the concept car design released in the early days has a little difference, let's take a look.
In terms of appearance, unlike the new power brand, the new car retains some of the styles of traditional fuel vehicles in the design, such as the front face has a grille outline, but the interior is a closed design, the bottom mouth is decorated with horizontal trim strips, there is a circle of chrome decorative strips on the periphery, the roof light group is more sharp, and the split design is adopted, which is somewhat different from Toyota's tram.
From the side, the color of the body and the roof is different, creating a visual effect of the suspended roof, the body shape is three-dimensional, the waist line is not regular, the body is relatively low, and there are five-spoke wheels, creating a relatively young and fashionable visual effect. From the rear, the new car design is also very sporty, with a separate spoiler at the top, a three-dimensional design below, and a black skid plate, and the cross-border attributes are unobstructed.
Interior, the appearance and Toyota tram is a bit different, but the interior design is basically the same as Toyota's model, the highlight is the design of the dashboard, the position is relatively backward, and is a full LIQUID crystal display, there is a suspension LCD screen on the central control, below is some physical control buttons, the central channel is more spacious, the gear shift mechanism is changed to a knob control, the overall look is more concise. Unlike the new power brand, the new car retains a lot of functional buttons and operates in touch mode, which is much better than all the functions integrated in the central control screen. The seat is made of cloth that is different from the color inside the car, which looks good in texture, so this car is also suitable for family use.
In terms of power, this is a dual-motor model, equipped with a 71.4 kWh battery, the official mileage given is about 460 kilometers, for this car, the performance has been very good, of course, compared with the current mainstream new power brand models do not occupy an advantage.
In general, this is the first pure electric model released by Subaru, the exterior design and interior equipment are satisfactory, and the quality should be very reassuring, after all, Toyota pure electric models are also from this platform. Brother Bean believes that the front face of Subaru's new car is very similar to Toyota, and the side is a bit Jaguar, and the appearance is very high. But without the horizontal opposed engine, the competitive advantage point of the new car is not prominent enough, in the current new energy market, this car does not have much advantage, sales are estimated not too good.
