You must not think that MAXUS was originally a brand created by the British commercial vehicle company in the 60s of the last century, together with Rover and Jaguar, and it was even reused by the British royal family for a time, until 2009, WHEN MAXUS was acquired by SAIC Motor, and it also had a name that we are familiar with now - SAIC Maxus. Originally, this brand was a professional commercial vehicle brand, but in recent years, SAIC Maxus has the idea of switching to the passenger car market, and high-quality products D60 and D90 have followed, promoting the development of the brand into a new charter.
According to the "AutoMotive Business Review", on April 29, SAIC Maxus launched a new MPV - MAXUS G90, with a new price of 219,900-329,900, and a total of 8 models were launched. From joint ventures to autonomy, now with the emergence of more and more new products, the competition in China's MPV market has entered a white-hot stage, if there is no feature, it is difficult to gain an advantage in the fierce competition, so does the MAXUS G90 have the capital to make consumers look at it differently?
The design is unique and the aura is fully open
First of all, from the design level, as an MPV product MAXUS G90 can be described as full of personality, the front face adopts an oversized trapezoidal grille, the internal network shape is very unique, and the "T" shape LED daytime running lights are like a mysterious totem, which is naturally connected with the middle network, constituting a front face with great visual impact, making people unconsciously reminiscent of the sci-fi monsters in the movie, giving people a full sense of oppression. Near and far lights are distributed at the heat dissipation ports on both sides of the grille, making the entire front of the car look more coordinated.
The length, width and height of the new car are 5280mm, 1999mm, 1845mm, the wheelbase is 3200mm, the amazing size plus the unique full silhouette of the MPV makes it look fully open, the bright silver trim strip of the window frame at the side skirt plays a good embellishment role, making the MAXUS G90's business temperament more stylish, in addition to it also adopts an electric bilateral sliding door that is more convenient for passengers to enter.
The rear design of the new car is very layered, the spoiler at the top brings a bit of sports atmosphere, and the through-type taillights echo the headlights. Overall, as a product developed for the high-end business travel market, the MAXUS G90 is very domineering in design, looks very high-grade, and the rational use of chrome decoration also makes it more flavorful than some of the MPV with dull design.
Luxurious and first class
Coming to the car, the interior design of the MAXUS G90 can be described as luxurious, the coating of large-area environmentally friendly soft materials has brought a strong luxurious atmosphere, and the oversized "Cloud Cirrus Cloud Shu" triple screen of the center console is enough to shock people's eyes and bring a very strong scientific and technological atmosphere.
And this car has achieved "screens everywhere", not only has a 10-inch HUD head-up display system, the rear seat back is equipped with a seat back screen for the entertainment of the rear passengers, and there is a control screen for passengers to adjust the seat function at the armrest. It has to be said that each row of seats in the MAXUS G90 has a treatment comparable to the first class of the aircraft, in addition to the seat ventilation/heating and other functions, it is also equipped with a folding small table, leg rest, etc., which further optimizes the ride comfort.
At the level of use, MAXUS G90 is equipped with spider intelligent connection 2.0 system, with powerful online entertainment functions, support intelligent networking, voice interaction and face recognition, the most important thing is that it will also "look at your eyes and act", based on the camera at the B-pillar on both sides can judge the required functions according to the line of sight of the rear passengers and operate accordingly, currently in some million-level luxury products do not have this function, and the co-driver side also has a 3-inch imon screen electronic pet, so that you can fully experience the joy of "cultivation".
In terms of driving assistance and safety configuration, the MAXUS G90 is equipped with L2++ high-end intelligent driving assistance such as ICA and LKA, coupled with the APA all-terrain automatic parking function, which can greatly reduce the burden on the driver and ensure the safety of the car before it occurs.
In addition, the new car is equipped with an oversized double-open sunroof for a more transparent view of the interior, as well as a ceremonial 64-color intelligent rhythmic atmosphere light, and JBL's flagship sound system for top audiovisual enjoyment.
2.0T+8AT, powerful enough
In terms of power, as a large MPV, the new car will be equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine from the SAIC Blue Core Power brand, and the homologous engine that previously adopted the blue core power technology has won the honor of 'China Heart' Top Ten Engines. The maximum power of this 2.0T engine is 172kW, the peak torque is 390N·m, the power parameters are still relatively considerable, and the huge "body" that drives its super 5.2 meters is basically no problem.
At the technical level, the use of 350bar ultra-high pressure direct injection, DVVL two-stage variable valve lift and other advanced technologies, with a thermal efficiency of up to 39.52%, coupled with a 48V light mix system, further optimize the fuel economy of the product, and in China a 2.0T turbo engine can achieve this level is not easy. In terms of transmission, it is matched by Aisin's 8-speed manual transmission, which is more comfortable and smooth to operate.
Written in the end: In fact, as a domestic MPV, maxus G90 pricing is not cheap, but after understanding it found that its product power is very outstanding, especially as a business MPV can give two rows of passengers enough sense of honor, but at present, there are already Volkswagen Weiran, Buick GL8 and Trumpchi M8 and other high-quality MPV products, MAXUS G90 can not "latecomers to catch up", we still need to wait for the market to give us the answer.
