Chery Discovery 06, once a little-known name in the automotive field, is obscure and hidden in the corner of the market. However, it has recently set off a small sensation and become the focus of attention in the car industry. When the original spy photos were first revealed, some fans were keenly aware of the clue - perhaps the car was equipped with a 2.0TGDI engine. Now, a test car with this engine has finally been unveiled, but is this a domestic or overseas version?
First of all, the appearance of the front of the car is eye-catching. As soon as the familiar diamond-shaped honeycomb grille appeared, it immediately made people shine. The test car is still in the old design, and the camouflage of the grille has not been removed, which seems to be to facilitate preliminary testing. There are different opinions as to whether the grille has a new design, but overall there are no significant changes. Perhaps this is just a pre-test car for the domestic version, and the real facelift may take some time.
The rear of the car also retains the old design, and the camouflage has not been removed. After all, the test car is more about practicality than aesthetics. However, a noteworthy detail is that there is no nacelle at the root of the A-pillar to introduce a test harness into the cab. Does this mean that testing of 2.0TGDI began a long time ago? It also increases the likelihood that version 2.0T will become an export version.
Looking at the interior of the car, there are also some minor changes. At the top of the directional pillar is a camera of the DMS driver detection system. This small detail reveals some information, most likely for the overseas version. The shape of the steering wheel has also returned to the previous tough design, and combined with the 2.0TGDI engine, it is likely that a high-end model exclusive to overseas will be launched.
The chassis hasn't changed much, but the appearance of the rear drive shaft can be clearly seen, indicating that this is a 4WD model. The chassis configuration is the same regardless of the version, even for the plug-in hybrid.
The final decision is that version 2.0T is based on the annotation information on the drive shaft. However, it is not clear whether it is 48V or 4BV in front of the word "four-wheel drive" in front of the mark, and it may be a 48V mild hybrid system, that is, a super start-stop system. It may be unlikely that the domestic market will be able to configure this system, after all, we have plug-in hybrid technology. This 2.0TGDI test vehicle is almost certainly ready for the overseas market, while the domestic market may wait for a while.
The story of this car reminds me of the transformation of a superhero, from what was once obscurity to a certain moment of outburst, to the focus. Isn't this our ordinary life? Everyone has potential, and when the time is right, they can spread their wings and fly.
The change of this car also triggered me to think about whether there are such "explorers" in life, and whether those dreams and possibilities that were once buried by the trivial things of life can also burst out to shine brightly at some moment?
Perhaps, each of us is an "explorer" in the field of life. Just like this car, it went through underrated moments and finally proved its worth. We may need to find that point in our trivial lives that makes us shine, just as the 2.0TGDI engine breathes new life into this car.
Life entertainment is a vast stage, and each of us is the protagonist in it. Even if it has been overshadowed by the hustle and bustle of life, as long as we have a heart to explore, we can find that moment to make ourselves the focus like this car.
The change in this car reminds us that small changes in our lives can start a storm. Perhaps all it takes is a new engine, a tiny detail, and we can be reborn with a new vitality.
Finally, I said to this Chery Exploration 06: "Thank you for your story, which allows us to see the infinite possibilities in life. I hope your new journey will be more exciting, and I look forward to more such miracles in your life. May we all become "explorers" in the field of life and find our own shining point.
