As Lincoln's first domestic model, the Lincoln Adventurer officially launched in March this year. With a price of 246,800-34.58 million yuan, a full range of 2.0t+8at, and a super rich configuration, many consumers have turned their attention from BBA. Of course, the market also explains everything, in the past May, Lincoln sold a total of more than 5,000 new cars in China, of which adventurers sold 2,400, accounting for nearly half of the brand's sales. In a short period of time, it has carried half of the family, so what is the treasure book of adventurer success? To this end, Xiaobian specially borrowed an adventurer to test drive to find out!
A sign of a man's maturity, the essence of luxury is charm
I have to admit that Lincoln Motors has always had a good reputation and status in China, and this is very important for a luxury brand, so just need to see Lincoln's "car logo", basically you can get a good degree of attention, for the owner, is a good "added value".
In addition to the identity of "very wow", from the details of the design, Lincoln adventurers also stand up to scrutiny. Xiaobian especially likes the headlights of the vehicle, one LED light source, just like the "diamond" of blingbling, but from the styling point of view, it is very restrained, and the balance is very "inner flavor".
Of course, in addition to the headlights, the Lincoln adventurers as a whole also showed such "balance", just like the gentleman who already had eight-pack abs put on a custom suit, from the inside out, quietly showing "charm".
Big, American luxury
American luxury in many people's stereotype, is still hitchcock's movie "North by Northwest" Lincoln's convertible continental mark iii, slender and wide body, unsparing materials, even with a modern eye, it is luxurious enough, publicity, but less exquisite beauty. Nowadays, in the fast-paced life, people want to taste the quiet beauty in luxury, which is why Lincoln adventurers refresh themselves, inside and outside, and integrate new American luxury into all details, even the senses.
Thanks to the Lincoln brand's acclaimed "Journey of Tranquility" aesthetic design, both inside and outside are more relaxed. High-end luxury has never been a pile of functions and gimmicks, but the calmness of "sitting alone in a hedge" and the meaning of "the moon comes to take pictures". The moment you step into the Lincoln Adventurer, you can feel the smoothness of the quiet journey, the warm hues of leather sofas and walnut wood, which are pleasant and relaxing. Exquisite seat design has always been one of the secret skills of American luxury to capture people's hearts, lincoln explorer equipped with the full sense of the exclusive seat has the most abundant 24-way electric adjustment of the class, different body shapes and sitting postures, can easily find the most comfortable state. The 5 massage modes unique to the same level, as well as 3 levels of adjustable intensity, bring the most immediate sense of happiness during long-distance driving and returning home from work.
If the happiness created by ergonomics is not full enough, then the soft touch of high-grade leather will make you completely "fall". The savannah premium leather adopted by lincoln adventurers, from the eagle ottawa with a history of more than 150 years, reinterprets and creates centuries-old traditional craftsmanship with modern technology, and the real leather usually has natural traces, these seemingly imperfect tiny imperfections are the unique identity certificates of the savannah high-grade leather, making each seat unique.
Lincoln Adventurer's level sound. Founded in 1996, the products are audiophile speakers, cinema speakers, embedded speakers, etc., which are known for their sound fineness and musical performance. Its distortion reduction ring and unipolar/dipole switching techniques are very distinctive, especially waveguide technology.
Revel's set of speakers has several characteristics: low-frequency sound texture is strong, the sound as a whole is biased towards the low frequency slightly more of a performance, but the frequency band is very wide, basically below 400hz are a certain improvement, but did not cause low-frequency turbidity, especially the sound and overtones of the electric bass can be very energetic performance. The high frequency of revel reflects a sense of wrapping, there is a warm feeling, not the kind of gorgeous high note, but the high listening is high.
Timbre detail is rich enough and distortion is low. This has to mention the Lincoln Adventurer's anc active noise reduction system. The so-called anc is the use of the principle of sound wave superposition, for the noise (main wave), to produce a reference source (secondary wave) with the same amplitude and opposite phase, and the two sound waves are superimposed on each other to achieve the purpose of sound cancellation. Importantly, the system is completely insensitive, that is, you don't feel that the sound is interfered with, but the noise is really low.
Coupled with Lincoln's own sound insulation and noise reduction level is very good, the front and rear rows are double-layer glued glass. So listening to music in this car can really feel a lot of musical details.
In terms of sound adjustment, there is quantum logic blessing, known as no drag sense surround sound technology, that is, while enriching the logical positioning without changing the timbre of the sound itself, it feels that the sound is more profound, which is more conducive to the unity of hearing of everyone in the car, but if there is only one person in the car, Xiaobian still recommends the stereo mode.
Live music mode and stage mode are also available. The live mode will hear some first reflection sounds added, similar to the wall reflection effect of the hall, which creates a sense of environment. The high frequencies of the stage mode will be more prominent, the instruments will be more distributed, and individuals prefer the stage mode, and the simulation is more natural. Sound positioning is also a way of hand sliding, which is more convenient.
As for eq tuning, I suggest that low frequencies can be reduced by 2-3 blocks, and the ability of the sound to resist noise will be reduced, but the overall sound will be more balanced, and the texture of low frequencies will be more natural. The high frequency can be increased by 1-2 blocks according to preference, supplementing the air feeling of the high frequency. The intermediate frequency is not recommended to move, the eq adjustment of the revel is very wide, the ripple surface is large, and the next frequency will also be affected at the same time.
In the luxurious and quiet carriage, the 12.8-inch high-definition large screen unique to the Chinese market and the sync+ chixing interconnection, which is also unique to the Chinese market, form the new Lincoln Adventurer Corsair intelligent car machine system. The system has four major features: "intelligent navigation", "voice interaction that supports natural semantic recognition", "rich in-vehicle entertainment and service ecology" and "cloud intelligent interconnection", in addition to the conventional functions, entertainment apps commonly used by young people such as QQ Music and Himalaya fm and iQiyi are available. The highly recognizable intelligent voice system can allow users to control the functions in the car with only one sentence of "Lincoln, hello" or a custom wake-up word, and can control various smart homes in the home through the car interconnection function in sync+ Zhixing Interconnection.
In terms of intelligent driving, the new Lincoln Adventurer is equipped with the co-pilot360™ plus advanced intelligent driving assistance system, which includes more than 20 driving assistance systems and safety technology configurations, such as the acc intelligent adaptive cruise system with stop & go automatic follow-up and lca lane centering assistance, which can help you automatically follow the car in the daily traffic jams of the city, and automatically correct the driving path when you occasionally "empty", so that the vehicle is always in the center of the lane.
In addition, some assistive systems are very friendly to young people who are not "old drivers". For example, the pca anti-collision assist system with pedestrian monitoring and aeb active emergency braking function can automatically brake in the event of an unexpected situation; the intelligent and convenient apap one-button parking system can allow users to calmly face parking, which is undoubtedly a blessing for consumers who choose a larger SUV.
The high-tech experience of smart driving facilitates the driving of elite young people, and in other respects, the new Lincoln adventurer has reached a peer-level level of technology. Like the phone as a key "smart phone key" function, just imagine, for young people who love sports to go out jogging in light sportswear, or full of shopping bags through the supermarket, the problem of getting and placing car keys has become a small annoyance. At this point, the feature turns the phone into a wireless car key, easily unlocking the car, opening the suitcase, and even starting and driving the vehicle, fully solving the redundancy of the traditional key. This is the real convenience brought to users by the intelligent configuration of the new Lincoln Adventurer corsair.
In addition, this "smartphone key" system can bind up to four mobile phones, the owner only needs to share the door code lock with others to unlock the door and start the vehicle, coupled with 2 physical keys, Lincoln Adventurers can achieve up to 6 people high-speed human car sharing. It can be said that the new Lincoln adventurer has brought a good sense of ritual to the car life while satisfying the elite youth's pursuit of science and technology.
Responsibility is what car companies should bear
The outbreak of the epidemic has made "excellent in-car air quality" a just need for Chinese consumers, not only elite young people, but everyone is eager for their own car to become a safe haven for purifying breath.
To this end, based on the strict requirements of Chinese customers for air quality and the concern for healthy travel, Lincoln has tailored the auto air refresh cockpit "fresh air butler" system for the Chinese market and is installed in the new Lincoln Adventurer corsair. Unlike the air purification systems commonly found on the market, the new Lincoln Adventurer Corsair's "Smart Health First Class" brings health to every corner of the cabin.
This "fresh air housekeeper" system can simultaneously monitor and clean the air quality, and display the air quality in real time on the car machine and mobile phone app, so that users can understand the air quality of their own car space in real time. At the same time, through the high activated carbon filter and quadruple filtration structure, it can effectively filter 96% of pm1.0 and pm2.5 particles, and even filter 94% of pm0.3 particles, effectively preventing the vast majority of pollutants and even bacteria and viruses from entering the car, and ensuring the health of the driver and occupants to the highest extent.
"Fresh air butler" is also equipped with three functions of cockpit fresh air, unlock fresh air and parking fresh air, which can enable the vehicle to automatically switch the air circulation mode to ensure the injection of fresh air in the car under different driving conditions and different air quality outside the car: automatically switch the external circulation mode for ventilation when starting the vehicle; automatically switch the internal and external circulation according to the air quality during the driving; after parking, it can still be used to change the air for the car 3 times under the condition of ensuring the life of the battery.
The power reserve is too much
The Lincoln Adventurer is powered by a 2.0t engine with a maximum horsepower of 245 hp and a peak torque of 390 n·m, matched by an 8at gearbox. With the blessing of this powertrain, the power of the adventurer is indeed very strong, and tapping the throttle can obtain a steady stream of power. The car weighs close to 1.8 tons, and in the case of sitting 5 adults, there is no pressure to start uphill or overtake, and the power is praised.
The gearbox is adjusted very smoothly, and normal driving basically does not feel any setbacks. In the traffic jam, you can occasionally feel the slight intrusion during the low-speed gear shift, but it is not obvious, and the overall performance of the gearbox is OK.
The Lincoln Adventurer's power and brake pedals make it drive a lot like a sport model, but it steers lightly. This setting is no problem to say, but it always feels like driving a big soft sofa with a track mode. The metaphor may not be very appropriate, but I personally feel that if the adventurer's steering wheel were slightly heavier, the car might be more comfortable to drive. In general, Lincoln adventurers have no disadvantages, and if you don't like the BBA on the bad street, it is also very good to buy an adventurer.
Summary: Lincoln belongs to the American luxury brand, but unlike the high-profile Cadillac, the Lincoln brand is still more implicit, which also makes Lincoln's car more prominent of the owner's product and social status, and will not always go to the "bath center". Under the good brand grade, as Lincoln's first domestic SUV model, the adventurer has shown its good strength with a considerable configuration, which undoubtedly has also taught those manufacturers who have "reduced the allocation" in China. So, in general, as a luxury SUV, the risk of adventurers, not only the advantages of the brand, but also the excellent driving experience makes it deserved. And such a level is worth moving.
