Chevrolet's first plug-in hybrid mid-size SUV will be launched! The current model is only sold for 130,000 yuan

Chevrolet began to "slim down" and successively stopped selling a number of new cars with low profits, including the well-known Malibu XL.

So what does Chevrolet want to do? There is no doubt that it is to increase the research and development of new energy vehicles. Recently, a new model has been revealed, and it is also the first true plug-in hybrid under Chevrolet, while in the past, Chevrolet's new cars were mild hybrids and could not even be on the green plate.

This model is the Explorer Plus, which adopts GM's new plug-in hybrid system, and will also introduce a 2.0T+9-speed automatic manual fuel power system to the market. Because this power system still has a good influence in the Chinese market.

In terms of exterior styling, compared with the current model, the appearance of the new car has been drastically upgraded, the front part of the car has become more three-dimensional, and the split LED headlights have also appeared on the Explorer Plus. In order to emphasize the American sense of power, the hood line has become stronger.

From the side of the model, the off-road performance has also been improved, not only the ground clearance has become higher, but also the Explorer Plus actually uses AT tires on the promotional pictures that appear, and the wheels are also petal-style off-road design, which further stimulates the wildness.

The texture of the tail becomes more obvious, the tail lights show a flowing effect, and the overall shape design is quite amazing. Compared with the current model, the appearance has been qualitatively improved.

The interior part has been exposed, and the interior style adopts Chevrolet's latest family-style through-screen dual-screen design, coupled with the yellow interior design, which further shortens the distance with consumers. It is worth mentioning that this Explorer Plus also uses the latest generation of electronic gear knobs, and the sense of space will be one of the biggest killer features of this new car.

In fact, the exterior and interior of this Explorer Plus are not the biggest highlights, the real highlight is the power system.

This Explorer Plus is equipped with an intelligent plug-in hybrid composed of a 1.5T plus electric motor, which can be listed on the green plate, which is also the first real new energy vehicle under Chevrolet. The manufacturer calls this plug-in power 2.0 upgrade system, and in the case of power shortage, its acceleration performance is basically the same as the acceleration experience when fully charged, and the manufacturer has also developed a new battery with the same source as Autoneng, which will also be installed in the car.

At the same time, the new model is about to usher in its debut in April, and the price of the current fuel version of the Chevrolet Explorer is falling sharply, of which the entry version has dropped from 184,900 yuan to 134,900 yuan, a price reduction of up to 50,000 yuan, of which the entry model is matched with a 1.5T plus six-speed manual automatic transmission. So would you rather buy the old model, or would you rather wait for the new plug-in hybrid Explorer Plus?
