Sales are the most intuitive embodiment of a car's popularity in the market, but it cannot be used as the only criterion for evaluating the quality of a car. For example, if you buy a car with a budget of 150,000, most people will give priority to economical and durable models such as Langyi, Xuanyi and Corolla. But for friends who want to pursue personality and get some driving pleasure, a sporty car may be more attractive, and I think these cars can be included in the list of considerations.
Changan Mazda 3 Axela
Unxella is one of the representatives of Japanese sports cars, the classic soul moving appearance design, the body line is relatively rounded and smooth, with bionic design headlights, the design language is unique. The side tail is relatively compact and will appear more dynamic visually, but this design has a certain impact on the rear head space, and if the overseas hatchback version can be introduced, perhaps this situation can be improved.
The interior part of Mazda is very stubborn to continue the design of the pointer instrument and the small screen central control screen, which seems to be out of step with the current large-screen design trend, but in fact, after getting started, the multimedia system is still relatively easy to use, but it is indeed slightly worse in appearance. However, turnip greens have their own love, and this simple style must also have an audience.
Mazda's excellent handling stems from its insistence on self-priming engines, Chuangchi Blue Sky engine technology makes the power output more linear, and the organ-style throttle pedal foot feel is more comfortable. Secondly, the matching of the 6AT gearbox and the engine is relatively good, the shift logic can fit the driver's idea, and the Mazda slogan is to achieve the realm of "human and horse integration". Mazda 3 chassis tuning has some hard, and the rear suspension uses a non-independent suspension, comfort will be a little reduced, but the support is better, in the corner driving, can provide better lateral support, enhance the driver's confidence, the sense of control is better.
Guangqi Honda type
Everyone knows that guangqi Honda model is the sister model of Civic, but Honda pays more attention to creating differentiation in the "two-car strategy", and from the perspective of the price and configuration of the type, the positioning is slightly higher than that of The Civic. In terms of appearance, the style draws on some of the design elements of the Ten Generation Accord, the flat headlights and figure 7 tail lights are very Honda characteristics, and the tail of the car is also integrated into the ducktail design to enhance the sports atmosphere.
The interior part is basically the same as that of the Civic, only in the high-end models, the air conditioner outlet trim is the same color as the car paint, and the top model is also equipped with a BOSE sound. The floating central control large screen is equipped with the third-generation Honda CONNECT intelligent guidance interconnection vehicle system, which has the functions of car networking and OTA, and the practicality and functionality are relatively good. The overall texture of the interior is at the upper middle level in the same class.
Civic enjoys a high reputation in the sports car, as a sister model of the type will naturally not be bad, and in order to highlight its own positioning, the model is equipped with a 1.5T high-power engine, the maximum 182 horsepower. The power reserve is the leading level in the same class of models, matching the CVT gearbox, and the power output is relatively smooth. The rear suspension is a relatively common multi-link independent suspension that maintains sporty tonality while maintaining comfort.
SAIC Volkswagen Lingdu L
SAIC Volkswagen Lingdu finally ushered in a replacement, and the wheelbase was lengthened and renamed Lingdu L. In terms of appearance, Lingdu L adopts the Design Language of the Volkswagen ID series, the through-channel daytime running lights are a major attraction, and the grille shape below has a bit of a bionic design feeling. The rear part of the car is echoed by through-the-end lights, and the tailgate opening method is changed to the hatchback mode, the roof line is smoother, and the storage capacity is also improved. The addition of frameless doors has brought it greater attention.
In the interior part, Lingdu L adopts a floating double screen design, and the center console uses less physical buttons, which is more concise, and more silver decorations are added to enhance the visual effect. The electronic gear rod adopts the same model as the Golf and Audi A3, which is relatively small and exquisite, and there is also a storage compartment next to it, which can place small items such as mobile phones.
Lingdu L is equipped with a 1.4T engine, the maximum power of 150 horsepower, for a sporty positioning model, with such power, I feel that volkswagen is still slightly conservative. Matched with this is a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission, which shifts faster than wet and switches gears cleanly. The torque performance of 250 Nm makes up for the disadvantage of power to a certain extent, and the initial acceleration is still relatively powerful, coupled with volkswagen's better chassis tuning skills, it still has a good sports model.
The above three models, there are more familiar Mazda 3 Axela, there are also new faces Guangqi Honda type and SAIC Volkswagen Lingdu L, the latter two are still relatively strong in price, although there is a relatively excellent product force, but for this level of user audience, the more attractive price is an important factor in deciding whether to buy. If there are good offers in the future, it is still very promising to make a breakthrough in sales. (Text/UVIS Auto Ride)
