In our impression, often with hard-core off-road ability models, the general comfort is relatively general, which is also the impression left by the previous hard off-road vehicles, but in recent years, domestic cars have developed rapidly, and they also have a high status in the off-road circle, and more and more models that take into account off-road ability and comfort are born, including many models that take into account economy. For example, Dongfeng Mengshi's Mengshi 917, the car provides both pure electric version and extended range version, but whether it is a pure electric version or an extended range version, its power is strong enough, and the economy is also very good.
Not long ago, Dongfeng Mengshi also launched three new cars based on the Mengshi 917 Jiaolong armor, namely the Mengshi M-HUNTER, the Mengshi 917 Jiaolong armor, and the Mengshi 917 Highland Lion, of which the Mengshi 917 Jiaolong armor is a co-branded model, the car is also a co-branded model of the movie "Jiaolong Action", mainly for deep off-road users and professional players to create a model, so today we will take a look at how this car is.
It is likely to be consistent with the regular version of the Warrior 917, and the power of the Warrior 917 Jiaolong Armor is also the extended range version and the pure electric version. Among them, the extended range version consists of a 1.5T range extender and three motors, the maximum power of the three motors comes to 600 kilowatts, this power is indeed very strong, and under CLTC working conditions, the car can also provide 200 kilometers of pure electric mileage, and for a medium and large level of hard off-road vehicles, such performance is also powerful, not to mention that the car is also equipped with an 84L fuel tank, so if you care about the vehicle endurance, then the extended range version will obviously be more worth choosing.
In contrast, the power of the pure electric version of the model will be stronger, equipped with four motors, the system has a comprehensive power of more than 1,000 horsepower, reaching 800 kilowatts, a comprehensive torque of 1,400 Nm, the official acceleration time of 100 kilometers to 4.2 seconds, and a pure electric range of 505 kilometers under CLTC conditions. For a pure electric model, this battery life is indeed relatively average, but the Mengshi 917 Jiaolong armor is already equipped with a 142.7 kWh CATL battery pack, and the main reason for the relatively average battery life is also its own weight and power. However, there is one thing to say, the off-road performance of all models of the Mengshi 917 is good, and they are all equipped with electric four-wheel drive system, non-load-bearing body, air suspension, front and rear axle limited-slip differentials, low-speed four-wheel drive, overall active steering system and other functions.
In contrast, compared with the shape of the Warrior 917, the overall shape of the Warrior 917 is roughly the same, the front face shape is angular, and the details are made of carbon fiber in the details, such as the front bumper, roof, engine hood and other positions, which can improve the strength of these parts on the one hand, and on the other hand, it can also reduce the weight of the body more or less. It is worth mentioning that the body color of the Warrior 917 Jiaolong armor adopts the Desert Storm Yellow military paint, and the roof, A-pillar, B-pillar and other areas are silver painted, which is still more textured.
In addition, the Warrior 917 Jiaolong armor also draws on a lot of elements of military vehicles, such as fully enclosed rotor forged wheels and front and rear wide-body wheel arches, and there are fixed side steps, for such a car height of about two meters of the model, the side steps are still quite necessary, even if I am 175cm tall, it seems relatively small next to the Warrior 917 Jiaolong armor. Referring to the dimensions of the Mengshi 917, the length, width and height are 4987/2080/1935 mm, and the wheelbase is 2950 mm, which is really okay.
In the interior part, the Warrior 917 Jiaolong armor is basically the same as the ordinary version, but the details in the car still add carbon fiber materials and wood grain decorations, which also makes the interior more textured. As for other designs and layouts, the Warrior 917 has it, and the Warrior 917 Jiaolong Armor basically has it, and the configuration of the two cars will basically remain highly consistent, such as L2 level assisted driving, night vision system, air suspension and other configurations will basically be standard.
Editor's Comments:
In contrast, the Mengshi 917 Jiaolong Armor has changed a lot compared with the Warrior 917, and the overall practicality and appearance have been greatly improved, if you want a high-end hard-core off-road vehicle that takes into account comfort, economy and off-road ability, then the Mengshi 917 Jiaolong Armor is still worth considering.
