Willanda PK Volvo XC40 Your car's four-wheel drive performance must be better?

Easy car original "leapfrog" is a word that many car manufacturers like to say now. This time, our editorial department came to a Willanda dual-engine four-wheel drive model. As a top model, I don't think it makes sense to compare with the same class model. So I decided to choose a luxury brand compact SUV for comparison-Volvo XC40, which is also famous for its safety.

Guangzhou Automobile Toyota Willanda chose all four-wheel drive models this time. Guangzhou Automobile Toyota Willanda dual-engine four-wheel drive deluxe edition costs 240,800 yuan, which is the most expensive version of all four-wheel drive models. The other is the Volvo XC40 four-wheel drive Zhiyuan version, priced at 365,438+0.88 million. Both are four-wheel drive models of urban SUVs, but the price is close to 80,000 yuan. So, is Willanda incompetent in performance? We will show you the performance of the two models from the aspects of power configuration, road driving experience and four-wheel drive performance.

Volvo XC40 First, let's look at the comparison of power systems. Willanda offers two power options: 2.0L and 2.5L twin engines. The 2.5L twin-engine four-wheel drive version of Wilanda's naturally aspirated engine we chose this time has a maximum output of 13 1kW and a maximum torque of 22 1Nm. Two permanent magnet synchronous motors are also equipped on the front and rear axles of the vehicle for auxiliary driving.

Willanda dual-engine four-wheel drive version, in which the maximum power of the front axle drive motor is 88kW and the maximum torque is 202Nm；; The rear axle drive motor has a maximum power of 40kW and a maximum torque of 12 1Nm, and the comprehensive power of the whole power system can reach 163kW.

Volvo XC40 offers 1.5T and 2.0T power options. The selected XC40 four-wheel drive Zhiyuan version is equipped with a 2.0T low-power engine, with a maximum power of 140kW and a maximum torque of 300Nm.

If Volvo XC40 T4 Zhiyuan Edition only looks at the engine performance, it must be that the turbocharged engine of XC40 is stronger, but with the help of the motor, the Willanda dual-engine four-wheel drive model has surpassed the XC40 of the traditional powertrain in terms of power output and torque level. In other words, with less money, you can get more surging power output by choosing Willanda.

The fuel consumption of Wilanda dual-engine four-wheel drive shows that the Wilanda dual-engine four-wheel drive system also has a great feature of fuel saving. As we all know, the fuel consumption of four-wheel drive vehicles is generally higher than that of two-wheel drive vehicles when driving on urban roads. Judging from the fuel consumption level of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the two models, the fuel consumption of the Willanda dual-engine four-wheel drive model is 5.0L per 100 kilometers, and the fuel consumption of the Volvo XC40 T4 four-wheel drive model is 7.4L per 100 kilometers, which is still a big gap.

Mainly thanks to the motor blessing of the Willanda twin-engine model, it is battery-driven at the start and in traffic jams. It also has obvious kinetic energy recovery when braking, which reduces energy loss as much as possible, making the fuel consumption of Willanda dual-engine four-wheel drive models generally lower than that of most four-wheel drive models on the market. Therefore, as far as the current power system is concerned, I think Willanda dual-engine four-wheel drive will be stronger than XC40.

After talking about power, let's talk about the four-wheel drive system of two cars. Although most people think that the four-wheel drive system of urban SUV is dispensable, when you encounter complex road conditions, you may sigh that something is better than nothing.

Willanda dual-engine four-wheel drive model Willanda dual-engine hybrid four-wheel drive mainly distributes power to the front wheels. When you step on the accelerator deeply, the rear axle motor joins the work, and the torque distribution of the front and rear wheels is 20: 80. You can fully feel the feeling of starting from the rear drive.

When wet roads are encountered in rainy days, after the intervention of the four-wheel drive system, whether it is high-speed cornering or acceleration, Willanda will give you a very stable feeling, and the body posture will be maintained very well.

Another driving feature of Willanda is excellent quietness, which is mainly divided into two aspects. First, the sound insulation effect brings you a quiet and comfortable feeling. At the beginning, it depends on the output of the motor, and the timing of engine intervention is late. Driving on urban roads, the speed is basically below 60 km/h. As long as you don't step on the accelerator deeply, you can hardly hear the noise of the engine.

Then there is the excellent shift smoothness of the E-CVT gearbox, which makes you feel no frustration. The quiet and smooth driving experience will make you feel that the driving texture of this car is very advanced.

In addition, in order to give you a taste of the passing performance of Wilanda dual-engine four-wheel drive, I also drove it to a small off-road venue, which is also a common road condition for people to go out for an outing on weekends.

It was still raining lightly that day, and I was worried about whether Wilanda would slide on this slope, but its excellent ability to limit sliding did not disappoint me. Moreover, the slope also simulates the small cross-axle road conditions, and Wilanda is also very easy to drive.

Mainly because Willanda has a unique "TRAIL" mode at the same level, which is easy to operate. With the AIM four-wheel drive integrated management system, it can comprehensively consider the body dynamics during operation and quickly distribute the torque to the wheels to prevent slipping. Therefore, in terms of passability, everyone does not have to worry at all.

XC40 gives me a strong sense of movement. This 2.0T engine has sufficient power reserve when driving in urban areas. When you start to accelerate overtaking, you can directly feel the engine downshifting and refueling, and the exhaust sound will be louder. The matching 8-speed automatic manual transmission has good smoothness, and the shift speed is not as fast as expected.

In terms of the passability of the four-wheel drive system, XC40 mainly deals with simple off-road situations, and its ability to get out of trouble when passing through some big potholes is not as easy as that of the Wilanda dual-engine four-wheel drive. One is that the speed of power distribution is not so fast, and the ability to limit the slipping of tires that lose grip is not so good.

Summary: In fact, many netizens will choose face or lining when buying a car. After our one-day test, apart from the brand value, everyone can see that Willanda is better than XC40 in performance. And Toyota's quality and reputation are equally excellent. Instead of paying a higher price for a luxury brand with low technology, it is better to consider choosing a joint venture brand model that pays attention to quality. You can enjoy the highest configuration and the most advanced technology, so why not?
