Flying thousands of miles and then crossing mountains and mountains, SUV will also start to talk about handling.

In the first part, we chose three popular compact SUVs with a price of 6.5438+0.8 million yuan to go to the famous Fuxian Lake scenic spot in Yunnan, and evaluated the static state, driving noise and internal and external amplitude of Angora GX, Ge Tan and hacker respectively. Later, Jiashi School continued to travel southwest and moved to Guizhou, a mountainous tourist province.

Early in the morning, a group of drivers left Fuxian Lake and drove Buick Angola GX, Volkswagen Song and Nissan hackers to Renhuai, Guizhou, thousands of miles away. We deliberately chose to leave in the morning, because it takes nearly 9 hours to fly at a high speed of more than 650 kilometers to reach Maotai Town, renhuai city.

After continuous highway driving, Angola GX shows a moderate steering feeling. Comparatively speaking, Tanko is soft at high speed and needs to press the direction slightly. Hackers have the composure of European cars, so when turning the steering wheel, they have to make their arms harder than Angola GX, which is a bit of an illusion of exchanging nationality and identity with Tanko. Angola GX is in the middle. The hand holding the steering wheel is not hard, and it won't worry about being disturbed by the road, but it doesn't feel hard to hit it when it really turns.

Among the three models, the best taxi quality is exploring songs. After putting down the throttle, it can hardly feel the resistance, and its posture is extraordinarily light and smooth. Angola GX has newly adopted CVT intelligent continuously variable transmission. Compared with hackers who also use continuously variable transmission, Buick SUV can slide naturally after loosening oil, while hackers will have a stronger sense of mopping the floor and can only slightly step on the accelerator pedal to maintain acceleration.

On the stability of chassis when driving at high speed, singers and hackers showed excellent stability. For example, although the singer is lighter, it still gives people confidence, while the hacker is heavier, and the feedback transmitted to the car will be more solid. The performance of Angola GX is also good. It won't be too heavy at high speed. The four wheels hold the ground tightly and reflect this stability to the driver. For a compact SUV of this size, it is the key to give the driver confidence to drive smoothly at high speed.

In the case that all three models are equipped with cruise control, Angola GX with lane keeping assist function is more pleasing. Although hackers also have lane departure warning, they must rely on the driver to correct their own direction. Angola GX shared some troubles for the driver: when the wheel runs into the lane line, the steering will not reverse too much, and the gentle pull-back makes people very willing to use this function at high speed.

After bypassing the shaft, the motorcade finally reached Maotai Town before dark. This is a small town where you can smell distiller's grains when you get off the highway toll station. Of course, the most famous is Maotai, which is as famous as Scotch Whiskey and Cognac, but we didn't find a store and decided to resell Tian Fei Maotai to earn back the cost.

Can't drink authentic Moutai, but Jia Shipai and his party still ate authentic Guizhou-style hot beef. An old shop is hidden at the end of a narrow lane. Order two Jin of beef, put it in the soup base of beef bones and cook it for five or six hours, let the soft and waxy beef slices roll up and blend with gum, then take it out and jump into the dipping dish blended by the boss with dried Chili, millet and shallots, and you will immediately get the satisfaction of taste buds.

Taking advantage of the night, we drove to the ancient town of Maotai, which runs through Chishui River. Because of the terrain built on the mountain, there is quite a "Chibi Cave" in "Network Celebrity Chongqing under the Lights". There are many sunset tour groups in this town to punch in, and Mr. Wu, the special photographer of the driving school, can only grab a photo casually.

The next day, we drove out, and Maotai Town was a fiery scene. The congestion level is comparable to the morning peak in first-and second-tier cities. Although traffic jams are annoying, the stop-and-go road conditions also give the driving test team the opportunity to explore the ride comfort of three SUVs in detail.

Angola GX and hackers who use continuously variable gearbox have natural advantages in this respect. At medium and low speeds, CVT gearbox has a slight sense of urgency when hackers step on the accelerator and release the pedal, but the pedal setting is relatively linear, so the control speed of the car is more comfortable in traffic jams. At high speed, it's a little out of the way when slowing down, but in traffic jams, it can slow down smoothly with greater resistance, which means a little kinetic energy recovery.

The accelerator pedal of Angola GX is more sensitive, and the static start under small throttle load is very powerful. You can keep up with the car in front without a particularly high speed, which will make people feel full of motivation. Angola GX is also more active than hackers in responding to acceleration and speed increase on the way. However, if you suddenly want to accelerate and overtake at a low speed, the body will still have a slight setback.

As for exploring songs, it is challenging in this working state. We must admit that the Volkswagen dual-clutch gearbox has been greatly optimized compared with the initial products, and it is the best of its kind in terms of ride comfort and transmission efficiency, but it is still difficult to completely make up for the original loopholes, such as the low-speed tip in a quiet environment. When entering/leaving, you will clearly hear the click of the shift fork, and when you are in traffic jam, you will repeatedly toss between 1-2-3, and occasionally catch up with the shift logic disorder, which will bring rush.

On the whole, the ride comfort of Angola GX in congested road conditions has always been better than that of Tango, and it is basically tied with hackers, while the output of Buick engine is more full in power, which is close to the performance of Volkswagen model at the beginning, and there is no Nissan self-priming engine. A slightly lazy posture.

Driving out of the congested ancient town of Maotai, we drove three SUVs to Tianniang Scenic Area. In order to better experience these three cars, we also chose to bypass Panshan Highway for nearly an hour before reaching our destination.

There are many wineries on the way up the mountain, and the road surface is uneven because of repeated rolling by trucks. The chassis feedback of Angola GX itself is relatively biased, but the bumps are simply handled. The suspension system can quickly control body movements and absorb aftershocks immediately. The car body under the short-wave road surface is also very rigid, which gives us the first impression that the posture is very stable, but the back row will bounce a little more, which will affect the overall comfort.

Hackers at this time are more like European cars with pure blood. Suspension can be described as "tough", with the highest comfort score. Not only is the chassis sound-proof, but also the bouncing feeling when encountering road impact continuously is restrained properly. However, the rear axle slightly twists against the car body under this road condition, and the rear half of the car body will feel squirming.

The original song, which made us feel a little brittle, also restored the strength of Volkswagen models under the impact of the road as always. Although it is tougher and has the strongest impact than Angola GX and hackers in the initial stage of suspension compression, it still retains enough buffer to avoid the feeling of collapse, so it is easier to deal with ditches.

Leaving the area where wineries are concentrated, the road conditions on the mountain have become cleaner, and the sparsely populated environment has accelerated our speed. This is still friendly to Angola GX, because its maneuverability is a little higher than that of two SUVs of the same class: compared with the moderate righting torque at high speed, the steering wheel of Buick model feels clearer at medium and low speed, and the establishment process of steering force and body yaw angle is more linear and comfortable, but in the process of turning with speed, the larger steering force of Angola GX brings too calm subjective assumptions to the driver. In fact, the front response of Angola GX is good, and the roll control of the whole vehicle is also excellent, but the driver needs to concentrate more on controlling the dynamics of the vehicle.

The driving limit of GX in Angola is very high, but it also requires the driving level of the owner. When I was prancing in a continuous curve, the load of Angola GX body frequently shifted from left to right, and the intervention of ESC was very strong, and it was earlier than expected, so it was possible to break the driving rhythm occasionally. However, the matching between the engine and the gearbox is very tacit in this fierce operation, and the power has a sense of following, and the speed is willing to maintain a high horizontal line. The throttle can easily support the torque to accelerate in bending center, and will not become a stumbling block to driving pleasure.

Nissan hacker's control is consistent with chassis feedback, which is a relatively European-style feeling. Its lubricated steering assist brings a little advanced feeling, and at the same time, the whole steering wheel feels tight, and the low-speed assist is at the level between Angola GX and Tango, which makes it feel but not heavy to drive.

Although the hacker's steering is not flexible, the relationship between body roll and steering angle is linear and predictable. The turning speed of hackers is close to that of Angola GX, but the starting difficulty is slightly lower than that of Buick models. They have better fluency in continuous turning and a softer sense of ESC intervention. Even if the steering angle is large, the righting torque is appropriate and it is not difficult to drive. But the power of Nissan's 2.0L engine is far from enough. Although the smoothness of the gearbox is understandable, the throttle action will not get a positive response when cornering, and the sense of slow acceleration makes it difficult to grasp the driving rhythm.

The exploration song integrates the advantages of Angola GX and hackers. Although the perception limit is not as good as that of Angola GX, the chassis and power are light and pleasant, which makes people feel that the steering wheel action can be better copied to the front wheel. In addition, the gearbox is very suitable for mountain roads, and the shift rhythm is decisive, so exploring songs gives us the most flexible feeling.

However, Ge Tan's steering force is small, and the sense of steering directness is a bit nihilistic. Moreover, with the increase of steering angle, it will be slow first and then fast, and the large-angle steering appears abrupt. Especially when challenging corners, the steering ratio of the exploration song is not accurate enough, and the slightly fuzzy feel requires the driver to handle the change of driving trajectory carefully. Fortunately, Volkswagen's calibration of ESC is quite mature, and its involvement in continuous steering is weak, which will not interfere with the confidence of operation.

After punching in the observation deck of Tianniang Scenic Area, we turn back along the original road, and we can try the feedback of the braking system, which is a long downhill section. The brake pedal of Angola GX felt a little sensitive at the initial stage. When you first step on the first brake, you will feel that the feedback force is too great, especially when you enter the corner at low speed, which is somewhat unsuitable. But after getting used to it, we think it can perceive the progress of the work more clearly, especially when the speed is above 50kph before braking. This kind of strength is very confident.

Tanco's brake setting is just the opposite of Buick SUV. The first paragraph feels a little light when you step on it. With the deepening of the journey, you gradually build stronger braking force, and the linearity is not clear. Fortunately, the actual braking force of mass products is still relatively pertinent. In contrast, the hacker's brake front hardness is more moderate, the brake foot feel is more linear, and the overall stroke length is also in the middle. However, when braking completely before cornering, I feel that the braking pressure of hackers is a bit slow, and the driver's pulling feeling is not strong, which will make people have to put the braking point forward.

After running the mountain road, the driving school thinks that the three SUVs have different styles. The popular song "Exploration" is a car that can be easily driven every day, and the driver can control it with only 35% success rate. Volkswagen's chassis suspension level is enough to cope with most road conditions, and its high-speed stability and comfort are close to excellent standards. However, under extreme working conditions, it will be revealed that the exploration of songs can not resolve the big shock, and the processing limit is also somewhat thin.

As the opposite of exploring songs, Nissan hackers are basically built according to European ideas. The steering wheel feels advanced, small and exquisite, and it is more comfortable to drive than most European cars in daily life, and the control is close to the level of European cars. In addition, its sound insulation is also excellent, and its good comfort makes up for its weak power as a whole.

As for Angola GX, Buick engineering team is more willing to show good handling skills, and it may feel a little heavy when driving everyday, but the compact and solid suspension chassis of Angola GX is worth your efforts. After driving too fast, its roll is not big, and it is also an excellent control level at the same level in the limit state. Positive power output gives people a pleasant driving and control experience. In addition, the fluctuation of Angola GX is small, but it is not round enough to solve the big impact. Fortunately, its comfort can still reach the level of meeting household needs.

After leaving Maotai Town, we passed through renhuai city on the way to Yibin, just found a cement road that was not open to traffic, and tested the acceleration and braking data of three SUVs with instruments.

In the acceleration test, we all started in the normal mode of D gear and 1500rpm ejection. In contrast, the acceleration results of the three SUVs are better than the attempt to start at full throttle at idle speed.

The performance of Angola GX seems to lag behind the tango, but if you look at the data carefully, you will find that it has been ahead of the others from the moment it started, and the subsequent 0-60kph and 0-80kph acceleration are also ahead of the tango, indicating that the light pleasure of Angola GX power is most obvious at the common speed of 80km/h in urban areas. Only with the continuous improvement of speed, the advantage of Angola GX has narrowed, which gives more opportunities to explore songs with greater displacement. However, in the whole acceleration process, the power output of Angola GX is continuous and linear, the speed can rise to about 5700 rpm, and the torque is full, which gives a strong impression.

The quality of the Explorer Song is exactly the same as that of Angola GX, but the dual-clutch gearbox needs more care, so Volkswagen engineers set more protection measures for it, which made it difficult to pop it up smoothly, which led to the initial movement of the Explorer Song was not smooth. Moreover, when driving in urban areas, it seems that the throttle feedback is brisk, and the advantages under intense operation are gone. In addition to relying on the aftereffect of displacement to save the disadvantage, the efficient dual-clutch gearbox also contributed, and the simple upshift action was impressive.

Hackers played an auxiliary role in the acceleration test. The weakness of the 2.0L self-priming engine was exposed from the initial stage, and the instantaneous G value was the lowest in the whole field. Nissan did not show its fighting capacity in front of turbine engines. The good news is that CVT gearbox can increase the speed to 6250rpm, but the torque of hackers is not sufficient in the actual experience, especially after the speed of 80kph, the power reserve is even weaker, and the gap is further enlarged when it finally reaches 120kph, and the small-displacement turbine power can only watch it go.

In the braking test, we choose the speed of 105kph and try it five times repeatedly. We can also observe the changes of braking attenuation of three SUVs while obtaining the best results.

Angola GX retreated 10% in the brake test. When fully braked, the brake pedal stroke is appropriate and the thermal decay resistance is strong. Treading five times in a row can also give people a strong sense of self-confidence, and the difference in braking performance is within 0.8 meters. The braking force of Angola GX is established quickly. Full braking can make the car stop with great deceleration, and the attitude control of the car body is also better. The whole braking process is relatively stable. Of course, the brand UC6 tire with updated vehicle condition also contributed.

The braking force of exploring songs is also established quickly, and the G value at the moment of stepping on the pedal is the highest in the audience. However, the overall braking force of Volkswagen is weaker than that of Angola GX, which tends to weaken when braking with full force, and the best result is slightly lower than that of Angola GX. Moreover, after braking five times in a row, Tango began to experience braking attenuation from the third time, and the worst braking distance increased by about 1.5 meters compared with the best result, and the braking system was accompanied by the smell of brake pads.

Hackers once again play the role of accompanying readers. The biggest problem of Nissan models is that the brake establishment pressure is too slow when braking completely, and the maximum G value at the moment of braking starts is obviously behind Angola GX and Tango. Subjective feeling is that the driver's pulling feeling is not strong. However, the final braking performance of hackers in the whole compact SUV market is actually not bad, and the attenuation after five consecutive brakes is also controlled at around 1 meter.

Summary of driving an official

On the journey from Fuxian Lake to Maotai Town, we drove three compact SUVs, with a journey of about 800 kilometers. In addition to the high-speed road conditions, we also felt the congestion in the ancient town and the rush of mountain roads.

According to the comprehensive experience, all three models have a high level above average. Nissan hacker shows the quality of mature products. The overall debugging style of chassis suspension is like that of European cars. It has a stable and reliable driving experience like a big car, and its comfort is also in the leading position among the three cars in this trip. However, power will be a shortcoming of hackers. The 2.0L engine is obviously not as deep as the small-displacement turbocharged engine, whether it is the brisk pleasure of driving in urban areas or the stamina of driving at high speed. It is also difficult for CVT gearbox to bring positive response to it.

Exploring songs belongs to the assembly line operation of Volkswagen's new generation products, and both powertrain and chassis suspension are expected performances. First of all, after repeated iterations, TSI+DSG powertrain continues to be top-notch in fuel economy, and has also made great progress in matching and durability. In addition to frequently and repeatedly switching low gears when crawling at low speed, the dual-clutch gearbox has achieved high ride comfort and more light and powerful power distribution under other vehicle conditions. As for the driving quality, the exploration of songs is not heavy, but the chassis feedback is not frivolous, which is good for newcomers, but friends who have high driving requirements will feel lack of communication.

As a rookie in this market segment, Buick Angola GX has raised the threshold of driving performance. The most unexpected thing is GM's new Smart? Promoting intelligent drive technology, the partnership of 1.3T engine and CVT intelligent gearbox seems harmless, but the fullness of actual power output is in line with the song, driving in urban areas is effortless, and overtaking after entering the expressway can be easily competent. The stepless gearbox matched with the engine makes the ride comfort of Angola GX reach a new height. Except for the occasional slight dash in low-speed traffic jams, the existence of this powertrain is already very weak, and the only shortcoming is probably that it is slightly inferior to hackers and singers in operation.

As for the level of driving control, Angola GX is in a leading position in the chassis movement sense of the three cars, and both the control limit and the road sense feedback are quite interesting, and it is also the most willing to communicate with drivers in this cross-evaluation. Although it sacrifices a little comfort, Angola GX itself does not pursue the balance of the mean. It can keep the powertrain and chassis suspension consistent and will cater to the preferences of young people.

To sum up, what I want to say is that in the compact SUV of 654.38+0.8 million, the drivers are all top students, but they are biased at the same time of balanced development: mature Nissan hackers correspond to those friends who seek stability, and the light driving experience of exploring songs gives novices confidence, while Angola GX will be the choice of young families, which not only ensures the comfort of the family, but also takes into account the selfishness of the car owners who want to open.

After completing the driving experience, the team left Maotai Town, Guizhou Province, and we continued to enter Chengdu-Chongqing Ring Road along Rongzun Expressway to Yibin City, Sichuan Province. In this "first city in the Yangtze River", the driving team will not only carefully explore the spatial indicators of three joint-venture SUVs at a price of 6.5438+0.8 million yuan, but also count the fuel consumption of each vehicle after completing all the 2500km trips. I believe there will be surprising results.
