There are many ways to buy a car to understand the model information, such as going to the 4S store to let the sales staff explain, you can also view various evaluation articles on the Internet, or find the owner group and forum to check the word of mouth. If it is too troublesome, you can also directly through the car purchase index one-stop understanding. The car purchase index combines the key factors such as price, sales, word of mouth, configuration, and retention rate that consumers are most concerned about, and finally obtains a set of guiding model evaluation system through analysis and evaluation. Today, let's look at the top three compact family cars in the car purchase index, namely Nissan Xuanyi, Volkswagen Sagittarius and Toyota Corolla.
Xuanyi
After adopting the latest family design language of V-motion 2.0, Xuanyi's appearance can be said to have risen a lot. The raised lines of the front cover and the chrome trim below form a V-shaped V-motion, which is the most distinctive feature of the Nissan family model, and this design element can be found even on the Toei God of War GT-R. Although the performance is dozens of streets behind, it can quickly attract young consumers through vision, which is a tried-and-true operation in the automotive circle.
Today's cars have taken a lot of effort in terms of styling and design, whether it is buying a grocery cart at home or a sports coupe that pursues control, the two are no different in appearance. Xuanyi's C-pillar is equipped with piano lacquer strips, creating a slightly falling back effect, but because the roof is not painted in all black, it looks slightly obtrusive.
The interior adopts a wrap-around design, which is a simple and warm style as a whole, which is in line with the positioning of family cars. The layout of the center console is clearly layered, wrapped in a large area of soft materials, and when combined with light brown tones, it also enhances the sense of grade. The floating 8-inch integrates most of the in-car functions without any physical buttons around. It is worth mentioning that the interior of the new Xuanyi electric drive version of e-POWER has obvious changes, the design of the center console is more fashionable and three-dimensional, and the size of the central control screen has also increased to 12.3 inches.
The fuel version of Xuanyi is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 99kW and a peak torque of 159N·m, which is matched by a CVT gearbox; the electric drive version of e-POWER can be regarded as a range extender system, with a total motor power of 100kW, a total torque of 300N·m, and a maximum power of 53kW for a 1.2-liter range extender, matching a large fuel tank of 41L.
Sagitar
The current Sagittarius is based on the American version of Jetta, or the standard volkswagen face, the diamond-shaped grille with chrome decoration and headlight set blended into one, looking serious and upright. Such a look does not have an advantage in the same level, but it really can not find any slot, even if many family compact cars are biased towards a sporty design, Sagittarius is still unchanged, and sales have always been among the best
Compared with the overseas version of Jetta, the biggest change in this generation of Sagitar is the increase. The body size is 4753/1800/1462mm, and the wheelbase is 2731mm. It can be said that such a size has exceeded the overseas version of half a grade, and in China, it is even more rampant in compact cars with the attitude of reducing dimensionality.
Since it has been on the market for some years, the interior design of the Sagittarius is also unremarkable and not too innovative. The central control area is tilted to the main driving side, and the button layout is relatively simple and regular. The LCD dashboard is not standard, and the top version of the central control screen is only 9.2 inches, and the configuration is very general. However, the whole series is equipped with the Internet of Vehicles as standard, supports CarPlay and CarLife, and is still very friendly to mobile phone parties. It is reported that the 2023 sagitar interior will have a great change, and the design style will move closer to the "ID" family, and everyone can look forward to it.
Sagitar's power combination is relatively rich, but the actual performance gap is not obvious. 1.2T and 1.4T engines are currently available with maximum power of 85kW and 110kW respectively. The low-end version is matched with a 5-speed manual transmission, and the rest of the models are 7-speed dual-clutch transmissions. In addition, the peak torque of the 1.2T engine is also slightly different, the peak torque of the engine corresponding to the 5-speed manual transmission is 175N·m, the peak torque of the engine corresponding to the 7-speed dual-clutch transmission is 200N·m, and the 1.4T engine tuning is completely unified, and the peak torque is 250N·m.
Corolla
The Toyota Corona remains strong in its class, with cumulative sales of more than 49 million units since its birth in 1966, making it one of the best-selling models in the world. During the oil crisis, oil prices soared, and small displacement engines began to receive attention, and Corolla, as a representative of them, passed on excellent fuel economy. With the gradual rejuvenation of the car buyers, the new Corolla under the TNGA architecture has also abandoned the past moderate design concept, and the appearance has become more youthful and refined.
In the same class of compact cars, the Corolla's body size can only be said to be average, and its main sales model has a body length of 4635mm and a wheelbase of 2700mm, which is significantly inferior to Sagittarius. However, the best Japanese car is the optimization of the cockpit space, the ride will not feel depressed, if the parameters are not placed there, it will really be mistaken for the Size of the Corolla's body.
Unlike the previous generation of design mediocre, the new Corolla under the TNGA architecture has changed a lot in terms of interior. The layering of the interior is very prominent, the workmanship materials are also worthy of the reputation of many years, and soft materials are applied in the details such as the center console and the door, which feels good. The floating central control screen is one of the characteristics of the TNGA architecture, and there are no physical buttons around it, which is simple and beautiful. The entire series comes standard with an active safety system, including active braking, lane keeping assist, lane departure warning, and full-speed adaptive cruise.
The Corolla also has a rich power mix, offering 1.5L, 1.2T, 1.8L hybrids in total, with a total of three engines. At present, the 1.5L is the main sales model, with a maximum power of 89 kW and a peak torque of 148 N·m, which is matched by the CVT stepless gearbox. If you have a tight budget, you can also consider matching the entry-level model with a 6-speed manual transmission.
Comments:
No one will deny that the future is the world of new energy vehicles, but at present, there is still a big gap between new energy vehicles and traditional fuel vehicles in terms of their own product strength and supporting facilities construction. Charging efficiency, cruising range, battery safety, handling and other aspects need to be further strengthened. It can be seen from the list of compact car purchase index that the traditional fuel car is still as stable as Taishan, especially the small displacement model, which is more worry-free and labor-saving than the new energy vehicle, even if the oil price is close to the 10 yuan per liter mark, it does not matter.
