Looking back at 2020, there are countless new cars launched by major car companies, but everyone follows a principle that the exterior interior design should be personalized enough to attract more young consumers, and at the same time, in the case of taking into account high value, the technology configuration should be rich enough.
Today, I would like to introduce you to a small SUV with a distinctive design that was launched at the beginning of last year: Geely ICON. After more than a year, a few days ago, Geely Automobile officially released the official picture of the 2021 spring limited edition of this model (hereinafter referred to as: Geely ICON limited edition), including two models, named "Blazing Love" and "Koi", it is reported that the new car will be officially launched in April. So what's the point of this new car? Is it worth everyone's expectation? Next, Brother Curry will have a good chat with everyone.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > what are the highlights of the Geely ICON Limited Edition? </h1>
Compared with the current model, the biggest highlight of the new car is the redesign of the body color matching, using a two-color collocation, and the original personality of the appearance looks a little more fashionable. Specifically, the official only released a few appearance pictures, of which the "Blazing Love" version uses a gray-orange two-color design, does not use a simple roof color change, but uses the unique Morandi gray as the main color, and adds coral orange decoration to the front bumper, front and rear wheels, side welcome pedals and the lower edge of the two sides of the window, making it look more cool.
Another "koi" version adopts a red and white two-tone design, with red as the main color, and the roof part is sprayed with white to create a more personalized red and white contrast effect, making it look like a red and white koi.
Geely ICON This model may already be familiar to everyone, based on the Geely BMA platform to build, the appearance of the use of Geely CONCERT ICON concept car most of the design language, of which the front face inherits Geely's iconic waterdrop ripple grille, rounded rectangle layer extension outward, integrated linear daylight and flowing water turn signal and the front face decorative strip integrated, looks more sci-fi. Rectangular elements are designed in many places on the body, which looks more rigid. The rear layering of the car is also more distinct, and the taillights use the shape of the hourglass of time, which looks very graphic.
Since the official did not release the interior of this limited edition model, we boldly guessed that according to the convention, the interior is expected to continue the overall design of the current model, and will use the same color as the appearance in the interior details, such as: the decoration on the center console case, the color of the steering wheel and the color of the seat.
Although positioning a 100,000-class model, geely ICON interior technology is still relatively high, equipped with a 10.25-inch full LCD dashboard and a 10.25-inch floating central control screen, the central control screen integrates the GKUI in-vehicle interconnection system, in addition to touch interaction also support voice recognition control.
In addition, the interior air outlet shape is also designed with the hourglass as an element, which has a good echo with the appearance, the shape of the gear handle looks small and exquisite, and a wireless charging panel is arranged in front of it, and below it is a hollow storage space.
Because the new car has not changed in structure, the body size is still 4350/1810/1615mm, the wheelbase is 2640mm, positioning a small SUV, and its own model Binyue size is relatively similar, but it is smaller than the Boyue PRO, the actual riding space, head space and rear leg space is basically enough.
The power is not expected to change, for reference, the current models on sale are equipped with 1.5T and 1.5T+48V micromix systems, of which the former engine maximum power is 130kW (177Ps), the maximum torque is 255N·m, the transmission system, matching 6AT and 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > just a change of color, is the value worth looking forward to? </h1>
Since the car has only announced a few official pictures of the appearance, the biggest change may be that the appearance uses a new color scheme of different colors, the interior is expected to be the same as the appearance, with different colors, to put it bluntly, it is to change the bright color matching, so that it looks more lively, in the configuration may be optimized, the three major levels should be consistent with the current model, if the future official listing price remains unchanged, it will further enrich everyone's choice, the cost performance will also be improved.
However, combined with the existing car a sci-fi full of appearance, to a certain extent, it can still attract some young consumers, the interior design is also relatively unique, although the interior materials are decent, but it is not included in the scientific and technological configuration, equipped with a 10.25-inch full LCD dashboard and a central control large screen. As for the 1.5T engine that some people worry about, it uses a three-cylinder structure, but from the feedback of the car's listing for more than a year, everyone does not have to worry too much.
On the whole, for holding more than 100,000 budgets to buy a look personality, there is enough return rate to open out, then Geely ICON Limited Edition is still worth looking forward to!
