I said that the Formula Leopard Leopard 5 is a family SUV, can you believe it?
Who would have thought that the biggest controversy in the equation Leopard Leopard 5 is not whether the off-road strength is strong or not, but the high-speed fuel consumption of 18 liters per 100 kilometers!
A normal plug-in hybrid model (here it is not normal refers to the Ferrari 296GTB, McLaren Artura and other plug-in hybrid supercars) can drive 18 liters of fuel consumption at high speeds, even if it is feed fuel consumption, unless your right foot is "welded" to the accelerator pedal!
It's far away, everyone knows that the Formula Leopard Leopard 5 is a hard-core plug-in hybrid SUV with excellent off-road skills, which sounds very inconsistent with the scenes of home, urban grocery shopping and commuting to pick up a baby, but is this really the case?
As a large man with a width of 1970mm and a height of 1920mm, standing in front of the Leopard Leopard 5, this momentum and sense of oppression are still in place. When you go to and from school, you have to drive this car to pick up the baby, and your baby's tail can "go to the sky" in the envy of everyone!
Just kidding, the angle between the front bumper and the lower guard plate of the Leopard Leopard 5 is very interesting, even like an amphibious vehicle, and this also brings a 35° approach angle to the Leopard 5, and the approach angle of the top cloud flagship version has reached 39°, and the ground clearance of the full load reaches 310mm.
The hardcore off-road vehicles of the past two years have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and their side styling is similar, with a main boxy one. As a professional personalized brand under BYD, a leader in new energy vehicles, Formula Leopard also provides a variety of styles of wheels to choose from.
There are also many highlights at the rear of the car, the DMO on the left side represents the super hybrid off-road platform, it is the biggest difference with DM-i and DM-p is that the engine of the DMO adopts a longitudinal layout, and the 1.5T four-cylinder engine has 194 horsepower, which is more fierce than the 1.5T engine of many fuel vehicles, and more importantly, it can also add 92 gasoline.
In addition, the front and rear axles of the Leopard Leopard 5 each have a motor, and the engine can be connected in series, parallel, and of course, can also be directly driven. It is also because of the rear axle with a motor, although the Formula Leopard Leopard 5 is a non-load-bearing body hard off-road SUV with a girder, it adopts the layout of the front and rear double wishbones + aluminum alloy subframe, rather than the rear integral axle.
The 4.8s zero hundred acceleration score on the right side can be regarded as the "old tradition" of the BYD family, and after my actual measurement, this result is still too modest. After all, the comprehensive power of the system of the Leopard Leopard 5 is 687Ps, which is larger than that of G63!
After talking about the word mark, you have to look at the "conspicuous bag" (full-size spare tire) and the handsome side-opening electric suction tailgate!
What really amazed me about the Formula Leopard Leopard 5 was the interior, and it's no exaggeration to say that this is the best BYD interior I've ever touched. It's hard for you to imagine that in a new car in 2023, you can see four-screen linkage (three large screens + large-size HUD) and so many physical buttons at the same time. The slowly rising knob when starting is really ceremonial, but the crystal button under the lever still has room for improvement.
And the mid-range model I tested this time is also directly full! The front leather seats feel comfortable, the configuration is full, and it has heating, ventilation and massage! The 18-speaker Devialet audio listens to the ferry, and then takes out a can of happy water from the car refrigerator under the center console, this picture can't be too beautiful...
Finally, let's talk about the feeling of urban driving (the equation Leopard "Sheng" is really violent in Shanghai!), after all, so much power is placed over there, you can do without but you can't do without, so when accelerating, the feedback of the Leopard 5 is very linear and very heeling, just like a large-displacement self-priming fuel car. It also has a "cool for 5 seconds, cool down for 3 minutes" ejection mode, and the moment I rushed out, I felt like I was about to "take off".
After all, it is still a non-bearing body SUV, and the body and chassis of the Formula Leopard Leopard 5 are flexibly connected, and it will definitely not "obey" the city road like those urban SUVs, but compared with other models of the same category, the chassis of the Formula Leopard Leopard 5 is like a "magic carpet". That's why I'm looking forward to test driving the Formula Leopard 5 Turbo Flagship Edition, and I'm hearing that the car's urban performance will be even better. And the Leopard Leopard 5 is not like many hard-core off-road vehicles, which need to be fine-tuned at all times, and it is very easy to get tired after a long period of tension, which means that you can easily drive the Leopard 5 very silky and soft.
The most surprising thing to me is the NVH performance of the Leopard Leopard 5, I thought that such a large, square SUV, the drag coefficient must be very large, NVH must be difficult to do, who knew that the car is so quiet. I think the hybrid system, the double-laminated glass, the rugged adhesive strips, and the soundproof cotton of the canopy all make their contribution.
After a day of Leopard Leopard 5, I was really impressed by its comprehensiveness. It's like a "hexagonal warrior" and it's very balanced. Different from the "do as you like" that you look up to, Equation Leopard Leopard 5 has strict cost constraints over there, but the answer sheet of this "proposition composition" makes me surprisingly satisfied. It seems that BYD's "technical fish pond" has reached the season of fishing and harvesting! Here is also a flag, I hope I can test drive to look up as soon as possible, U8 or (can also be and) U9 I will not pick!
