Mention the B-class car, everyone first thinks of the Volkswagen Maiteng, Passat, the Japanese car Camry, Accord, Tianlai, GM Regal and LaCrosse, and a small number of people think of the Korean car Sonata 10 and Kia K5, but few people will mention the Ford Mondeo, this forgotten B-class car, recently launched a new model, extremely cost-effective, the interior grade is prominent, the appearance is in line with the Asian aesthetic, with a 2.0T+8AT powertrain, With a 6.5s acceleration of 100 kilometers, such a car was launched, directly rolling the 200,000-class B-class car to a new height.
Vehicle styling
Ford Mondeo's length, width and height is 4935 * 1875 * 1500mm, the vehicle wheelbase is 2945mm, the body length is almost 5 meters, making the body side appear slender and straight, the 2945mm wheelbase lengthens the internal space of the vehicle, the rear legroom is sufficient; the new Mondeo adopts a 3D parametric scale grille, and there will be breathing ups and downs when unlocking the vehicle, as if to tell the owner that it is ready; the roof and body are designed in two colors, with a distinct sense of layering and high recognition. And Mondeo's tail is short and small, and the "sporty style" is strongly highlighted.
Vehicle interiors
The interior design of the new Mondeo vehicle, I would like to use the term "sense of technology" to describe, compared with the old Mondeo, is definitely not a product of the times. The new Mondeo's large joint screen is very eye-catching, with a length of more than 1.1 mi, which is similar to the "main and co-driver through-the-board screen" of the new power model, most of the buttons are integrated into the central control of the large screen position, and there are few physical buttons. However, this will also make me think of the "post-maintenance cost of the vehicle", if the central control screen is broken, the replacement of a central control screen is estimated to be expensive. The seats of the Mondeo vehicles are slightly stiffer, but they are more supportive and you will not feel tired after a long time of driving.
Vehicle powertrain
Full Montmundio's powertrain is definitely a highlight, Ford matched it with a 2.0T+8AT powertrain, the 2.0T engine was developed for Ford's CAF488WQC model, and the Ford Lincoln family used the same series of engines, the maximum torque of the engine is 376Nm/2500 ~ 3750rpm, the maximum power is 238Ps/5500rpm, the 8AT transmission used by Mondeo is also developed by Ford itself, and the transmission is tuned to "ride". Mainly, the upshift is positive, but the reduction is slow, the gear change speed is slow, which is also a directional development for the driving habits of Chinese car owners, after all, everyone likes models that look more sporty, but the driving sense is slightly smoother. Under the matching of this powertrain, Ford Mondeo's 100 km acceleration performance exceeded to 6.5s, can the acceleration performance be firmly seated in the 200,000-class B-class fuel vehicle No.1?
Vehicle driving sensation
From my personal test drive to talk about the driving sense of Mondeo, all said that the steering wheel is the soul of the car, after all, everyone is driving by hand, Mondeo's steering wheel is somewhat Japanese, Korean, its steering wheel feels very light, even in the sport mode, it is still a light steering texture, personal feeling, in the high-speed driving will make people a little unsteady; Ford's chassis architecture has always been biased towards the sense of control, but Mondeo's chassis is biased towards comfort, the chassis is very tough when driving on bumpy roads, The ability to filter the road surface is strong, and it is precisely this design, and I think that although the Mondeo has the strength of a sports model, it is actually a family car that is biased towards comfort.
Vehicle value for money
For the price of the vehicle, I think Mondeo has given the biggest discount, even if it is a Korean car, its discount is not as strong as Mondeo. The official guidance price of Mondeo is 159,800 to 226,800 yuan, which really reduces the joint venture B-class car to the range of 200,000 yuan, and the performance is first-class.
About Ford Mondeo, will it catch fire again? Don't know what your point of view is? Welcome to leave a comment!
