Chongqing Buick recruitment

Compared with cars and SUVs, the MPV market is always tepid and reluctant-however, in this context, there are still manufacturers who spare no effort to build new models. This year Volkswagen Wei Ran, Wuling Capgemini,? After the listing of Roewe iMAX8, the attention of several MPVs is still good, but is it good? With such questions, I walked into a Roewe 4S store in Chongqing and looked at the Roewe iMAX8.

Roewe iMAX8 has four models, and the display vehicle is 400TGI? The exclusive edition of the Supreme Series, also known as the second top edition, has an official guide price of 223,800 yuan. According to the sales consultant, this configuration is also the most concerned in the store at present.

In appearance, the front face of the new car is highly recognizable. Bian Xiao's first impression is "a little fierce", and the official rhetoric is "Lin Rong spreads its wings", which adopts parametric design.

The sides of MPV models are generally simple, with straight lines and square tails. Roewe iMAX8 is no exception, and its D-pillar is decorated with chrome plate, which adds a sense of fashion. Its length, width and height are 5016 *1909 *1788 mm respectively, and its wheelbase is 3000 mm If it is not sensitive to the data, please refer to the following figure and compare it with Buick GL8 and Honda Odyssey.

Sometimes the difference between the appearance data of one or two hundred millimeters is not directly reflected in the interior space experience, which has a lot to do with the layout.

Looking at Roewe iMAX8, the most important thing is of course the feeling of the second and third rows. As a "door control" (very sensitive to the opening force and sound), Bian Xiao's electric sliding door has a good sense of ceremony-it can be slid directly or controlled by pressing the button of the B-pillar door frame; There should be many other ways to open and close the door in the driver's seat or through the key.

What I want to say here is that both the sub-roof and the top-mounted models are double-sided electric sliding doors, but the 18880 and 203800 models only support electric operation on the right side and manual operation on the left side.

The space of the second row of seats is naturally not a problem. Front and rear adjustment, leg rest adjustment and lumbar support adjustment, as well as heating, ventilation and massage are all necessary for this level of MPV, and they all have USB interfaces/types? C interface. Press the button on the armrest and the cup holder will pop up, but this place is slightly slender.

In addition, we can see that the Roewe iMAX8 is equipped with BOSE audio (the second roof is equipped with 8 speakers), and there is a voice control button next to the lower window adjustment, which is convenient for the second row of passengers to control multimedia. In terms of comfort experience, the material and hardness of the seat are moderate. As far as my personal experience is concerned, there is no obvious texture gap between it and the joint venture model of the same level. But there is still room for improvement in the convenience of storage space.

This is the so-called "magic wand", that is, there is a slide rail under the car refrigerator in the configuration table. This design should be convenient for taking things in the back row, but visually this volume should not hold too many things to take care of the cold drinks of the whole car.

Sitting in the second row, looking at the front embracing cockpit, it is simple and fashionable, and the size of the central control screen is 12.3 inches. The quality of the front row echoes well with the whole vehicle. You don't need to be as trendy, exquisite and durable as many young SUVs and cars, which is the stable temperament that MPV should have.

Roewe iMAX8 currently has 7 seats and 2+2+3 layout. Bian Xiao has a little experience of passing through the middle of the second row and entering the back row. It is acceptable to pass the interval. The height of the third row of seats can keep people sitting normally, and the wide view of the rear window and the rear skylight does not show depression and constraint. In addition, the third row of seats can also be fine-tuned back and forth, further increasing the flexibility of the interior space-if there are many things, the space of the first three rows of passengers will be compressed, and a little space can be barely made at the back.

The above is a superficial and intuitive two or three rows of static experience. In terms of power, Roewe iMAX8 is a 2.0T+8AT drive system with a maximum horsepower of 234Ps and a maximum torque of 360N? M, the comprehensive fuel consumption of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is 8.4L/ 100km, but the actual manned road is definitely more than this.

I chatted with the sales consultant, and probably learned that the customers who are currently concerned about Roewe iMAX8 are mainly family and official receptions. Bian Xiao quickly asked: "How many customers are there?" "A lot, almost half of them are bought back at home." His answer surprised me a little.

Just then, a gentle and lean man came over and went straight to Roewe iMAX8 as soon as he entered the store. He briefly looked at the appearance, went directly to the second and third rows, and went in and out several times. I was curious to talk to him and learned that he is currently considering buying a seven-seater car.

"I just added a baby this year, two children at home and an old man. My wife and I are in Fengjie, and we have been punished twice this year for overloading, so we are going to buy a 6-7-seat cart, and the third row must be comfortable. But I have basically given up seven SUVs, and the third row is too depressing. " He intends to spend 2-3 months comparing and understanding, such as Buick GL8, Buick GL6, Chuanqi M8, and even he mentioned Wuling Capgemini.

However, it is obvious that the early 200,000 s are only enough for the entry-level versions of Buick GL8 and Honda Odyssey, while the comfort, power and texture of the 654.38+10,000-class Wuling Capgemini, which focuses on four seats, cannot be compared with the above models-the positioning of Roewe iMAX8 should basically meet such customers, and the direct competition should be Chuanqi M8.

However, he is currently worried about the quality of domestic cars. "Many configurations rely on some small motors and have many functions. If the quality is not good, it will be some minor problems in the later stage, and it will be considered after it is listed for several months. "

Pay attention to the car industry, talk about cars, play with cars and talk about cars together!
