Lao Zhang also has a joint venture car at home. He wants to choose a purer mini-truck model to transport the fruits in his orchard. Basically, he drives in towns and villages in Shan Ye, but when he arrives at the dealer, he is dazzled and can't make up his mind.
Lao Zhang learned that there are many brands in the micro-card market at present, and there are two engines to choose from: diesel and gasoline. The most important thing is the "car" micro-card model.
Faced with so many brands, Lao Zhang still wants to choose a "big name" brand with more security in his heart, but he made a mistake in choosing diesel or gasoline, traditional micro-card or car micro-card.
Traditional micro card VS "car" micro card
Faw liberation Hongta and Jianghuai Automobile are reliable brands in Lao Zhang's impression, including Futian Times series. However, due to the poor road conditions in the orchard on the mountain, oversized vehicles are not allowed to pass. Lao Zhang finally set his eyes on the minivan model with the right size.
The biggest difference between the two cars is the appearance. The bell design is the same as the traditional micro-card, and the classic design of the cab has the style of Isuzu. After the redesign, the bell will look more exquisite.
However, the sedan design of Kangling X5 is obvious. Although both cars have the style of "Japanese and Korean" micro-cards, Kang Ling's design is more Korean micro-cards, and the whole car pays more attention to aesthetics.

There is no difference between the two cars. The body size of Baling is: 5110x1890x2210mm; ; The dimensions of Bell X5 are: 5570x 1700x2070mm. The unpaved pavement width of Lao Zhang Orchard is about 2 meters, and the width of both cars is suitable. The width of Kangling X5 1.7 meters will pass better.
Because the branches and leaves of other households' fruit trees will hang on the roadside. As we all know, in order to bypass the fruit trees that were not planted in the past, the road turns narrower and narrower, and the shorter the bell rings, the better the driver's passability.

Baling and Kangling X5 both adopt integrated plastic bumper design. The approach angle of Baling's front bumper is 22 degrees, while the approach angle of Kangling X5' s front bumper is only 19.5 degrees, which is an empty car in approach angle.
When the vehicle is fully loaded with goods, the height of the vehicle will be further reduced, and the bumper of Kangling X5 will be easily damaged when passing through unpaved roads such as big stones.

The shape design of bell headlights is vertical, and the combination of low beam and low beam is indirectly connected with fog lights to form a main body, which looks harmonious from a distance; Bell X5 uses black headlights with a stronger sense of movement, but this comparative model is not equipped with fog lights, only one installation slot is reserved.

The advantages and disadvantages of sedan design are obvious, and the beautiful and exquisite appearance is true. However, the "sedan" design of the rearview mirror makes the view of the rearview mirror of Kangling X5 not good, because it only designs the main mirror.

The design of the bell will make the rearview mirror have a better view. First, the external swing mirror is designed, and then the left and right rearview mirrors are combined with the upper main mirror and the blind-supplementing mirror. The reflective position of the blind patch mirror is just at the tire position of the vehicle, which is safer for Lao Zhang who often needs to walk on narrow mountain roads.

There is another obvious difference in appearance between the traditional micro-card and the "car" micro-card, that is, the design of the cab empty room and the car side window.
From the picture, we can clearly see that the window area of Baling is large, and the driver can better observe the situation around the vehicle when sitting in the car. The car-designed Kangling X5 is a visual experience when sitting in the car, and it has a stronger sense of package. One of the main reasons is the design of the lower edge of the window, and the vertical vacancy in the cab is not as good as the bell.

Both cars are equipped with three tailgate roofs. The tailgate height of Baling is 368mm, and that of Kangling X5 is even lower, only 355 mm ... The length difference between the two containers is about 100mm, and the length of Kangling X5 will be longer. Moreover, the bottom of the container is equipped with an anti-skid rubber pad, which can not only prevent skid, but also prevent primer wear.

Internal contrast
The most obvious car design is the interior design of the cab. Baling, like the traditional micro-card, adopts a cheap gray main color, and the design of the center console is old-fashioned. Kangling X5 has obvious advantages in sedan design. The center console adopts a better black main color with chrome decoration, and the workmanship and design are obviously exquisite. Kangling X5 also designed a central armrest with cup holder function.

Compared with the design of the bell, the interior of Kangling X5 is indeed more fashionable. The design of the four-position steering wheel is also the design of the Jianghuai family. This kind of car is more exquisite and compact than the bell steering wheel. The design of the car is also very different in the driving experience. The steering feel of Kangling X5 is relatively more accurate and better.

In the design of instrument panel, the two cars seem to have the same layout. In fact, Kangling X5 adopts LCD instrument, and the tachometer, speedometer and middle driving screen all adopt LCD display. Bell tachometer and speedometer adopt traditional pointer instruments, and the driving LCD screen is added with the mainstream.

Some people like the simple and practical central control design, while others like the center console with stronger sense of design and better texture. Baling and Kangling X5 are good contrast examples. Baling's center console is not beautiful, but the empty storage room is great; Bell X5 center console has stronger texture and workmanship, and good aesthetics. The only drawback is that there are too few storage slots.

In terms of comfort configuration, Baling was indeed "hung and beaten" by Kangling X5. When Baling was still using mechanical hand-cranked windows, Kangling X5 not only realized the function of electric window, but also had the function of lowering the window with one key.
However, mechanical hand-cranked windows still have some advantages. Hand-cranked windows are not too big in mini-cars with small window area, and their durability is more reliable than that of electronic equipment. After a long time, there will be no insensitive window keys.

Chassis appearance
Two engines are also the main reason for this comparison. Isn't Lao Zhang considering choosing a gasoline engine or a diesel engine? Now let's have a look. Baling matches Xichai 4DW93-78E5, commonly known as Xichai 490. Although the maximum horsepower is only 78 horses, its torque reaches 2 10 nm. Kang X5 is equipped with Wuling willow machine LJ4A 15Q6, with maximum horsepower 1 13 horses and torque of only 147 Nm.

Lao Zhang's car environment is mostly rural, and he often needs to get on and off on unpaved mountain roads. Diesel engine with stronger torque is preferred. Because of the difference in fuel and ignition mode between diesel engine and gasoline engine, their engine characteristics are obviously different. Simply put, a diesel engine can achieve high torque output at a lower speed, while a gasoline engine can only achieve torque output at a higher speed.
If users running on flat roads or expressway feel more secure when choosing a gasoline engine, the maximum speed of a gasoline engine with the same displacement at high speed will be much higher than that of a diesel engine.

The bearing capacity of the axle and steel plate installed on the bale is higher than that of Kangling X5. The number of Baling steel plate shock absorbers is 4/5 2, and that of Kangling X5 is 3/5. Baling also designed two shock absorbers on the rear axle, which will make the overall stability of the rear axle stronger.
The tires of the two cars are the same size, both use small tires of 6.00, and both use hydraulic braking systems. But look at the tire configuration and you will know what kind of working conditions the two cars are more suitable for. The side wall of Kang X5 is thinner and the speed grade is higher, but the bearing grade is not as good as bundling.

The fuel of the two cars is different, and the material of the fuel tank is also different. The bell is made of diesel oil and equipped with an ordinary iron fuel tank, which is also in line with the positioning of this model; Bell X5 uses gasoline fuel and is equipped with a plastic fuel tank. In fact, the plasticity and flexibility of plastic are not worse than that of iron. If you occasionally rub a big stone on the mountain road, it is not easy to cause the fuel tank to rupture.

Comparative conclusion:
Discussion: JAC Kangling X5; Next: The bell of faw liberation Hongta.
The design of Baling's "pragmatic" route is reasonable, but the central control design of the interior is really unpopular with young people. However, the configuration of its chassis is more suitable for the rough work of "going to the countryside".
The exterior design of Kang X5 is younger, especially the configuration and design of the central control in the interior, which should be better than Baling. Its chassis configuration is more suitable for the conditions of many roads in cities and towns, either it is impossible to climb mountains or the gasoline engine does not perform well in climbing performance.
The "temperament" of the two cars has been found out. After all, the most important thing is actually the price. The manufacturer's guide price of this comparison model is 62,800 Baling and 5.985.98 Kangling, which are completely different in style. As for Lao Zhang's traffic demand, which one is more suitable for you? Is there an answer? (Text/card number. : Xiao Lu)
