Let "Houlang" become the SUV closest to the forefront of science and technology, and test drive Geely ICON.

For today's world, if there is anything that attracts people's curiosity, it is technology. Food, clothing, housing, transportation, illness, death and illness have been greatly improved with the progress of science and technology. Scenes in science fiction movies always feast our eyes, satisfy our fantasies about the future and want more. So what are the modifiers about future technology? I think there should be simplicity, lines, intelligence, convenience, extreme and so on. However, the protagonist of today's story meets these characteristics: Geely idol.

Geely ICON is the first heavy-duty SUV built by Geely in 2020. In March, when the epidemic was severe, it won the sales of 2565 vehicles, and now it has sold more than 40,000 vehicles. The quality of a car is never boasted, but sold. Today, Mao Ge came to Beautiful Anji to test drive this sci-fi SUV and wanted to know why it sold so well.

When I saw this car, the first thing that caught my eye was the China Net with the word "back". We have seen too many exaggerated and comprehensive China nets, and Geely ICON has shrunk and flattened this part. Highlight the design elements of "rounded rectangle", and at the same time, the linear daytime running lights and driving turn signals are integrated with the front face decoration, showing the beauty of line design and full of sci-fi effects.

The side still uses simple and direct lines, especially the design of hidden door handles, which makes the body look simple and capable.

The tail shape echoes the front face from a distance, and the "back" shape once again makes people shine, while the tail headlights inspired by the "time hourglass" are also quite recognizable after lighting.

You know, this is a production car exactly like the concept car. Geely perfectly realized the imagination of conceptual design at that time and made the concept car a reality. I think Geely ICON must be sold for this reason.

When we get in the car, we will feel deja vu. The air outlet of air conditioner, inner baffle, central storage space are highly compatible with the shape when the rear headlights are lit, and the "time hourglass" can be seen everywhere, which keeps the integrity and unity of this car. In addition, the dual-screen design makes the technology feel full!

Today, the interior of this model we test-drive adopts a black+red design, which looks very sporty and calm, especially in the details. The outline of red lines makes people shine. Even if this is a sci-fi SUV, you can still see its tough side at the handle of every door, which makes you feel very practical and reliable. Even the female friends present today like this kind of interior and its simple structure and atmosphere.

In terms of configuration, Geely icon does not lose its highlights. Different models will provide functions such as induction door handle, 72-color induction lighting welcome, induction atmosphere light, three-finger flying screen dual-screen interaction, mobile phone wireless charging bin and so on. There are all top models. There are two points to emphasize here. First, Geely ICON is an SUV, which uses the image function of "360+ 180" for the first time, namely 540. In short, it can see the complete image of the car body 360 and the car bottom 180 to avoid obstacles. Second, APA+ automatic parking system, APA+ algorithm adds 540 video signal, which can freely set vertical, parallel and oblique parking modes, and 360 body monitoring to make the car park safely.

Geely ICON has made great efforts in the health of cars. Especially affected by this epidemic, all car companies are emphasizing the functions of sterilization and air filtration in the car, and the real "configuration" of ICON is more reassuring. First, it is equipped with "CN95 high-efficiency composite air conditioning filter element", which has been certified by China Automotive Research Institute 00 1 and TV 00 1 Rheinland. The second is the "comprehensive antibacterial steering wheel". The third is medical grade IAPS intelligent air purification, which can replace the air inside the car in only 45 seconds. And so on, security measures make everyone believe that this is a very safe SUV inside, especially because it has been certified by the team of clove doctors. There are also some health measures to ensure the safety of everyone's car.

Next is the test drive part. The model I for test drive today is 1.5TD+7DCT+48V BSG, which is a top model (it is recommended that you buy a top model first, which is quite cost-effective). First of all, people will think that the power of 1.5T will not be enough, but the maximum power of 130kW and the maximum torque of 255n·m are higher than those of mainstream Mercedes-Benz and Volvo. In the test drive, this question will be completely lifted.

Geely icon provides three driving modes, namely, Eco, Normal and Sport, namely, energy-saving mode, normal mode and sports mode. No matter in which mode, you will feel very light when driving the steering wheel. In the acceleration stage of the vehicle, with the help of the light mixing system, the power will be smoother and more "wild", making you feel comfortable on the road. Until the speed reaches a higher speed of 80km/ h, overtaking is very convenient as long as you are willing to give the throttle, especially with the help of the 48V BSG light mixing system, which will not give you any frustration. At this time, you can feel the smoothness of the gearbox. When it comes to the NVH of the whole vehicle, the overall feeling is relatively comfortable, and the urban road conditions (0-80km/ h) do not affect the interior environment at all. When the vehicle speed reaches 90km/ h or even 100km/h, it will gradually show some tire noise and wind noise, which is also related to the structure of the SUV itself, and the wind resistance is large. However, compared with the SUV of the same level or even higher that the author tested before, Geely ICON did a good job.

Because Geely ICON adopts the multi-link independent suspension before McPherson, the chassis has excellent handling feeling. When passing through the speed bump in and out of the hotel compound, I feel that the car body is still close to complete and will not come loose. And this is precisely the confidence given by Geely ICON. When passing through the mountain road, it will be very reassuring to turn at a low speed. But when cornering at high speed, the feeling of support is not particularly good.

Written at the end: For the price of Geely icon11.58-128,000 yuan, the highly restored concept car is worth spending money on. The bold and innovative design and application of "time hourglass" and "rounded rectangle" make this SUV full of science fiction, and both men and women will be attracted by this style. Whether affected by the epidemic or not, everyone should pay attention to the hygiene inside the car. In this regard, Geely ICON has done enough and is ahead of the market, so that consumers can ride with confidence. No matter how many people have different opinions on Geely's innovation, it is less than three months since it was listed, and the sales volume of 40,000+queuing to pick up cars is enough to explain everything.
