With the rise of the global SUV fever, the car purchase matrix of the SUV market is becoming more and more perfect, and major manufacturers no longer have the luxury of "all kinds of passes", but have begun to focus on the subdivision field, providing users with a more appetizing price area choice. Of course, for many friends with difficulty in choosing, the massive number of models is really head-starter, and many friends also asked uncle Che "How to choose a joint venture SUV of about 200,000 yuan?" "Today, Uncle Che recommends two models that have been tested in the market - Ford Lingrui and Oncovey S.
Among them, Ford Lingrui has been officially listed on March 28, with a price range of 139,800 to 165,800. As another new 5-seat SUV after Lingjie and Lingyu, the new car will continue to help Jiangling Ford increase its control over market segments. Buick Encore S was launched in September last year, and the price range is 209,900 to 309,900. So, which of the two models is more competent? Next, let Uncle Che take everyone to see it.
Appearance: The same family design
The flavors vary
As a new car in the new era, Ford Lingrui retains the family design language while also incorporating popular elements. Blackened honeycomb grille, combined with split LED headlights, to create a colorful sense of sports atmosphere.
The built-in far and near light integrated headlights are integrated with the front surround of the blackened grille, and the overall integration is strong.
In terms of side, Ford Lingrui performed decently, with a double waist line body, a suspended roof, and a large number of chrome elements, which basically expressed the elements that the United States should have, and the texture was still worth affirming.
In terms of size, the Ford Lingrui has a length, width and height of 4630/1935/1706 mm, and a wheelbase of 2726 mm, positioned between the collar and the collar, which is a medium-sized SUV. One thing to say is that this size does not occupy too many advantages in the same class of models, but it is not a problem to meet the daily space needs.
In terms of the rear, Ford Lingrui uses blackened dot array taillights, a chrome-wrapped lower surround and a grille-style diffuser, which is quite recognizable overall.
Speaking of Buick Encore S, it still maintains the design language of the Buick family, with a decent style, using a banner chrome grille, using a "three-body" front surround, and arranging chrome elements around the deflector.
The only thing that makes an impression is probably the richly structured LED headlights, which are highly integrated with the grille.
In terms of side, Buick Encore S is also a traditional SUV design, with a double waist body, a suspended roof, and chrome elements in the details, and the style is also passable.
In terms of size, the Buick Encore S has a length, width and height of 4662/1883/1631 (1641) mm and a wheelbase of 2779 mm. Although it is slightly inferior to the Ford Lingrui in width and height, with the advantages of length and wheelbase, the driving experience is higher than that of the Ford Lingrui, coupled with heating, electric adjustment, and high-end ventilation, rear seat heating, the comfort is indeed better.
The buick Encore S tail is still full and rounded, but except for the two-color matrix headlights, which are quite recognizable, the rest of the design is relatively bland.
Motivation: The best in its class
Show the level of beauty
First of all, the power performance of Ford Lingrui, which is fully equipped with Ford's high-performance EcoBoost170 engine, the maximum horsepower is 170 hp, the peak torque is 260 Nm, matched with a 7-stop wet dual-clutch transmission, the maximum speed is 180km/h, and the WLTC's comprehensive fuel consumption is 7.5L/100km.
Then there is the Oncovi S, which uses two sets of power combinations of 1.5T and 2.0T. Among them, the maximum power of the 1.5T engine is 211 horsepower, the peak torque is 270 Nm, the maximum speed is 205 km/h, and the comprehensive fuel consumption of the WLTC is 7.15L/100 km. The 2.0T engine has a maximum power of 210 hp, a peak torque of 360 Nm, a maximum speed of 210 km/h, and a combined fuel consumption of 7.25 L/100 km/h for the WLTC.
Through comparison, it is not difficult to see that the Encore S is better than the Ford Lingrui in terms of power output and fuel economy. In particular, the five-link independent suspension equipped with on the Oncovi S can provide a strong shock absorption effect. Of course, this is without considering the difference between the two. If you consider from the same price range, the power performance of both models is very good.
Uncle Che summed up
Overall, the product performance of these two joint venture mid-size SUVs is qualified, showing the power texture that American models should have. But space is the disadvantage that the two models have to talk about, after all, the Changan CS75 PLUS positioned next door for a compact SUV has a length of 4700mm, and the moisture in the middle is really a bit large.
In addition, the difference in appearance between the two models is very large. Among them, Ford Lingrui incorporates a large number of popular elements, and the sporty and compact appearance can attract the user's appetite. The appearance of the Oncovi S is a bit "unpretentious", and it is not much different from the traditional SUV. Of course, the appearance value belongs to the problem of "turnip greens have their own love", whether you like it or not depends on your own eye rim.
If you let the car uncle recommend a model for everyone, the car uncle still recommends that everyone buy Ford Lingrui, whose comprehensive cost performance is higher than the Oncovey S, and it is more in line with the eyes of young people.
