The most beautiful Datong Tik Tok photo contest

MPV is not taken seriously by the market, but only in the household field, which is why independent brands are worth making efforts here, because there is almost only one opponent. Silent March, who says it won't blossom and bear fruit? SAIC Chase has been working in this market segment for many years, and G20, as its main flagship model of MPV, ushered in a mid-term change after a year.

165438+1On October 25th, the redesigned G20 was officially listed at the price of 186800-289800. 2.0T gasoline and diesel power has 10 model. This time the manufacturer also upgraded the model name to G20? PLUS, today we test drive the gasoline version of the top model, and I'm also curious about what this Plus has added.

As the highest-level positioning MPV of SAIC Chase, G20? PLUS has done a good job in creating a sense of luxury. Among the vehicles in front of the hotel, it seems that the gas field is quite sufficient, and the black appearance can really give people the feeling of high-end commercial vehicles.

This appearance upgrade is mainly in the front part. The size of the air intake grille has become larger, and the decorative strip in the middle has also been widened and thickened. Thick chrome-plated decorative strips on both sides of the front face run through the bottom of the front bumper, and the matrix LED headlights integrated with fog lights make the whole front face look more spacious and domineering, with strong visual impact.

Obviously, this change is more in line with the design trend of this kind of car. In order to meet the constant changes of consumers' aesthetics, manufacturers have to keep up with the rhythm and iterate products quickly. Personally, I think the upgrade of Xinfeng is still very successful.

Except for the front of the car, the side and rear of the car have not changed in appearance, but on the basis of chrome-plated decorative strips at the bottom of the car, decorations have also been added on both sides. 18 inch "Qian Fan Chasing Waves" wheel hub has a complicated internal structure, which is not bad with the whole vehicle. The selected horse brand tires have good sound insulation and comfort.

Because G20 adopts a rare layout structure of loaded MPV+ rear drive, the platform is relatively high. Therefore, the manufacturer installed a number of handrails in the car to facilitate passengers to get on and off, and all the rear rows used privacy glass. The other two sides are electric side sliding doors, which are well received.

The interior is consistent with the old model, and the pure black interior is decorated with silver, which is also very business. Leather multifunction steering wheel, mechanical+LCD instrument, 12.3 inch zebra 2.0 system, and suspended center console with knob shifting are not outdated in design or configuration level.

For a commercial MPV, G20? PLUS provides drivers with seat memory, heating, ventilation and even massage functions. I want to say, who else-of course, joint venture products are impossible.

The second row of MPV is the most important position. The seat continues the old 4D VIP private seat, with omni-directional electric adjustment, electric tripod, lumbar support adjustment, memory, heating, ventilation, massage and adjustable sleeping headrest. On both sides of the armrest are seat function control, storage box, USB charging and cup holder, which basically have the necessary functions. Our domestic brands are always the most honest in configuration.

In fact, the size of the seat is moderate, the leather feels delicate, the padding softness of the chair cushion and backrest is hard, the legs and waist are well supported, and it is not easy to feel tired after long-distance riding. Open the leg rest, put down the backrest and turn on the massage function, which is still very refreshing.

Although this luxury seat is equipped with a mid-to-high-end model, if your budget is limited, but you have requirements for the comfort of the second row passengers, you can also choose. Thanks to the "Spider Smart Choice" service provided by SAIC Chase, you can choose a low-profile model and choose this seat alone, and only need to pay the corresponding configuration price and 28-day customization cycle.

However, during the test drive, I found that this set of seats is not perfect, and I feel that I lack a desk that can facilitate my work. After all, it is more convenient to have a small desk in a business use scenario. I hope to add this configuration to the subsequent product customization list.

In order to facilitate passengers to get in and out of the third row, there is a wide enough passage in the middle of the second row of seats, and there is no pressure to get in and out. The seating space in the third row is not cramped, the head and legs are ample, the cushions and backrest are spacious and have a certain sense of wrapping, and the actual riding experience is stable. Due to the existence of large-area windows on both sides and 1.2 square meter panoramic sunroof, it also helps to improve the visual sense of passengers in the third row. In addition, storage space, cup holder and USB charging port are provided on both sides.

Luggage compartment loading is also an advantage of G20. The forward movement of the three rows of seats can provide 940L of loading space, which can be expanded to 1620L at the maximum, which can fully meet the needs of most business trips.

The key point of PLUS is that the new G20 is the first to carry the independent intelligent networking system "Spider Zhilian-China Net" designed and developed by SAIC Chase MAXUS for the rear passengers. The principle of this system is not described much. Simply put, the rear passengers can connect with the rear car machine through the mobile terminal to realize the control of some functions, including 20 in-car functions such as seat, air conditioner, lighting, stereo, skylight and ambient light.

It also provides a one-button switching function for four scenes: nap, cool, warm and comfortable. Users can start the scene through mobile phone, rear screen and voice control. For example, when you need to sleep in the car, you can call "Hello, Mickey, turn on the nap mode" by voice. At this time, the rear car system synchronously adjusts and closes the sunroof and sunshade, dims the lights, adjusts the air conditioner to 25℃, adjusts the seat back to 60, and lifts the leg rest. At this time, the atmosphere in your car is most suitable for rest, and the nap mode can be independently controlled by the left and right seats.

This big screen in the back row is thinner than the old one, and the display size and effect have also been improved. In addition, SAIC· Chase and ByteDance jointly launched the G20? PLUS is equipped with the "Volcano Car Entertainment" APP for the first time in the world. The system integrates the massive resources of Tik Tok, Today's Headlines and Watermelon Video. At the same time, it also provides two applications: "TV home" and "cloud listening".

This system also supports mobile phone screen projection, which can synchronize the user's mobile phone meeting schedule with the mobile phone. When the meeting is near, the back screen can remind you that a video conference can be held through the screen, making the back row a mobile conference room with massage seats.

For G20? Coupled with the priority of multimedia system sound, I also specially tested it during the test drive. The highest priority is car navigation, followed by the second row, and finally the front row, that is to say, the passengers in the second row have the control of the multimedia entertainment function sound of the whole car, but the car navigation is started in the current row. For the sake of driving safety, the navigation sound will cover the multimedia sound in the back row, which may affect the experience of the passengers in the back row. At this time, the best way is for the driver to wear a Bluetooth headset to listen to the navigation voice prompts, so that the listening needs of the rear passengers will not be affected.

202 1 G20？ PLUS provides two powertrains, gasoline and diesel. We test-drive a 2.0T gasoline engine with a maximum power of 224 HP (165 kW) and a maximum torque of 350 N? M, matching ZF? The 8-speed automatic manual transmission provides three driving modes: sport, standard and economy, and manual mode.

Driving the G20? The first impression that PLUS gave me was light and smooth, which was a bit unexpected for a medium and large MPV. The first is to hit the direction, which is light at low speed and stable at high speed. It will not bring extra pressure to your driving at all, and it is very free. The matching degree between the engine and the gearbox is also quite good. Normal start acceleration, the speed is very linear, and the power output has no sense of interval. The power feedback of the vehicle can basically be consistent with the driver's intention. If you drive this kind of car, you can easily find out how to drive comfortably and make the rear passengers think you are an old driver.

Of course, I also stepped on a few feet of floor oil during the test drive to see the performance of rapid acceleration. Basically, as soon as you step on the accelerator, the response of the gearbox to the power output will be delayed by 1 second. Slow? In fact, this is also the normal performance of such MPV models. After the downshift, the power of the 2.0T engine is quite abundant, so it is easy to accelerate overtaking.

In terms of ride comfort, the overall ride comfort of the first two rows can be guaranteed, except that the third row of seats will occasionally feel bumpy after passing through the rough road.

In terms of mute, due to the large body of this kind of MPV, it is easy to form a natural large speaker in the car. I have tested some cars of the same type with higher price level before, and the sound insulation is not very good. What about G20? PLUS's performance has no small surprise.

First of all, the noise of the engine is well suppressed, and daily driving can be basically ignored. Only when the rear row accelerates rapidly will you hear some exhaust sound. Secondly, the noise transmitted from the chassis to the carriage is not large, which is also due to the effectiveness of the four-horse brand tires and the sound insulation and noise reduction materials of the whole vehicle, so that users who travel long distances will not feel tired because of the noise too early, and the quieter carriage environment will also help mobile office and audio-visual entertainment.

Finally, let's talk about the shortcomings found in the test drive, because the rear large screen area is relatively large, and the driver can't directly observe the situation behind the vehicle through the rearview mirror when opening. It is hoped that manufacturers will add a streaming rearview mirror to the models equipped with "Spider Intelligent Network" in the future to ensure safety.

With this powertrain, good seating space and the strongest second-row seats in its class, G20 maintains good competitiveness in the same type of automobile market. And SAIC Chase upgraded G20 this time, and the appearance changes are closer to users' aesthetics. While the interior continues to retain rich hardware configuration, the new "China Net" system in the back row also adds some home entertainment attributes to this commercial MPV, which is undoubtedly the inevitable trend of the development of MPV models in the future.

Finally, do you want to say that configuration alone can be called high-end? It feels ok, but what seems to be missing? Well, notice that besides the 2.0T and 8AT, it is still a rear drive. Who else? Yes, but the price of that car is soaring.
