Test drive Beijing Hyundai's fourth-generation Shengda: Every row of seats makes you comfortable.

Imagine a 7-seat SUV with a pre-sale price of 265,438+0.28-288,800 yuan. What is its spatial performance? At the level of 200,000 to 300,000, I haven't seen a car in the third row that can be called a "real seat". More often, their gimmicks are greater than the meaning of existence, and occasionally they are also short-distance temporary rides. After sitting in the third row of the four generations of Shengda, I firmly believe that sitting in the third row can complete a long-distance ride, at least one or two hours.

When the second row is comfortable, I am 18 1 cm, a fat man weighing 200 kg. There is room for nearly two punches in the leg, and the back row also supports angle adjustment. It seems that we can find a more suitable posture. However, there is a small flaw here. In order to take care of the head space, the height of the cushion is really a bit too low. If the legs do not extend forward, the bending angle will be large.

The third row of air conditioning control knobs shows the manufacturer's confidence in the back row. If people don't have to sit often, this configuration is meaningless. The manufacturer's settings have hinted to consumers that this place can really sit. You see, I have considered everything.

Wait, I seem to have forgotten something. Standing outside the trunk, you will find that the seats in the third row of this car are electrically foldable. I'm afraid this configuration should be X5-compliant. In addition, even if the third row stands up, a lot of things can be put down behind it, and the loading capacity is not chicken ribs, but a space performance that can have both.

The above is the first reason why this car impressed me.

Of course, in addition to the space advantage of the third row, this car can be said to have too many advantages. Just last month, we learned about the black technology equipment of this car in Beijing Hyundai Yantai R&D Center-fingerprint unlocking and vehicle starting functions. This function is not a gimmick, it can let consumers get rid of the key completely, as simple as using a smart phone, and it can be unlocked with a touch of a finger &; Start the vehicle.

The system can identify two people, each with three fingerprints, so that you can open the door with the left fingerprint and start the vehicle with the right fingerprint, which is very ergonomic. Of course, it is also very convenient to set fingerprints. Through the 7-inch LCD screen in the dashboard, you can quickly operate on the steering wheel.

So you don't have to worry about forgetting your keys anymore. This is the second reason why this car impressed me deeply.

When I walked out of the airport yesterday, it was raining outside and it kept raining. I sat directly in the driver's seat of the fourth-generation Shengda and drove to the hotel. In line with my imagination, the power is not radical, the high-speed shift is smooth, and the driver's intention to shift gears can be understood by accelerating in the middle.

Another impression is that the high-speed cruise is really quiet, and the NVH performance is beyond my expectation. When driving to 120 km/h, the rain outside hit the glass, and the indoor conversation did not improve at all, and 0. 1 dB did not need to be improved. If the whispering in the back row is not well controlled, the driver in the front row can eavesdrop.

Driving on the mountain road today, we felt the explosive power from the Thetaⅱ2.0T engine. Overtaking is easy, but at the same time, we found a small problem that was ignored yesterday. Although the gear ratio of the 8-speed automatic transmission is very dense, when the road conditions are complex and acceleration and deceleration are often needed, the shift timing is not very good, and the downshift speed is not direct. It may be that the daily adjustment is too smooth and it will be slightly insufficient when it is suddenly opened.

Similarly, the suspension is gentle enough, so the support of such a large SUV is not so good when cornering, and the roll will be bigger, but it is more comfortable when crossing potholes in the city, with fast rebound speed and clean suspension adjustment. I would also like to mention here that the seat helps a lot when crossing the hurdle. Soft seats make people sink in, and everyone sitting on them says yes.

This car gives the driver a Buddhist feeling. In normal mode, the accelerator pedal is slow and the steering is limited, and the force will change with the vehicle speed. All the atmosphere reminds the driver that the car is carrying his family and he should slow down and enjoy the beautiful scenery outside.

This car has four driving modes, in addition to comfort mode, there are ECO, sports and intelligent mode. Needless to say, an extreme Buddhist, a more radical. In ECO mode, the vehicle will use front-wheel drive as much as possible. The intelligent mode can be automatically switched among these three modes, and the driving mode can be adjusted at any time by analyzing the road conditions and the driver's current throttle opening through the driving computer to ensure driving safety.

When it comes to safety, the fourth generation of Shengda is more promising:

ROA rear passenger early warning, SEW exit early warning, BCA-R blind spot monitoring braking system, RCCA rear cross collision early warning braking system, DRM driving rear image display, BVM blind spot image display, DAW driver fatigue early warning, FCA frontal collision early warning braking system (which can identify pedestrians), ASCC intelligent adaptive cruise, LKA/LDW lane keeping auxiliary system, HBA intelligent far and near light adjustment, SVM360 panoramic image. ......

As many as 12 security configurations, I can't read them all at once. These are the umbrellas of this car, which is the third reason that impressed me.

Every time, I don't like to evaluate the appearance and interior design of a car, because I think these are different people's opinions. If you like it, it will naturally look good. If you don't like them, of course you don't want to look at them again. But for some designs, it is not the first sight. On the contrary, when you watch it for the second time, you will realize the designer's good intentions.

Its split headlights are qualified in design and look novel and pleasing to the eye, without showing off their skills. If you understand the design of SUV family now, you will find that Ansino, Tucson and Shengda take a completely different route from IX35. This "nastic movement" design concept makes every car a chess piece, and each chess piece has distinct characteristics, but the style is the same.

The lines on the side are tougher than before, making the body slender. Square lines outline a wide internal space, and the third row of head space is excellent, thanks to this design.

The rear-end penetrating taillights are highly recognizable, and have a similar design language to Tucson and the tenth generation Sonata to be listed next, making the modern rear-end more distinctive than before.

In addition to excellent spatial performance, the interior part of the car has always been a relatively weak part of modern design. The weakness here is not that it is not well done, but that the design is not outstanding relative to the appearance, space and configuration, and there is nothing wrong with it. This is probably the deepest impression of modern brand interior.

The configuration in the car is extremely high. The ventilation and heating of the front seats are old, the second row of seats is heated, and the air outlet of the third row of air conditioners is adjusted. These are all routine operations of Shanda. Other than that, the steering wheel is actually heated. These configurations, which we always see in luxury brands, are fully equipped in Fista and other cars, which can be said to be the king of cost performance.

Conclusion: The cash Shengda is the first 7-seat SUV produced by Hyundai in China. The fourth generation of Shengda is obviously more mature than before. High configuration, large space, many technologies, attention to safety, and even serve passengers with driving style. It can be seen that he is determined to be the most effective helper to take care of his family.

For the pre-sale price just announced, 265,438+0.28-288,800 yuan is a very competitive figure. Even the top models are much cheaper than the competitors. If you are interested, look at the top models. This series of configurations is enough to keep you from falling behind in 3 years.
