Price list of new generation Buick GL8 family models
In the future, the domestic demand for MPV will definitely increase. In addition to the mature and stable business market, MPV will cover more home users, who will not only carry more passengers for vehicles, but also improve the quality of daily vehicles.
Speaking of quality, in addition to the influence of mechanical aspects of products on driving texture, the creation of visual sensory effects also plays a very important role. Buick has its own unique understanding of how to make vehicles look more luxurious.
Just talking about the visual experience, GL8 looks more like a higher-level product. This is not based on some exaggerated and extreme design elements, but the overall atmosphere of vehicle realization.
Looking at the front of the car alone, the difference between GL8 ES and Avenir may only be the style of the net, and it also uses the same matrix headlights as Avenir, which has a light show and concierge effect.
Viewed from the side, the vehicle is closer to the ground. You may ask, shouldn't it be just for the visual effect of sports cars? Then I have to ask, isn't it beautiful? And luxury cars are not all like this.
And a lower center of gravity can also bring a better ride. In addition, the bloated feeling of the vehicle is also effectively reduced.
Avenir's design is also used in GL8 ES cars. There are double 12.3 inch screens in the front row, and the touch panel in the central control has vibration feedback. Compared with the old model, the sense of science and technology has been greatly improved.
The second row of independent aviation seats supports 10 electric adjustment, and the rear row is also equipped with a small folding table, which has both luxury and business functions.
In addition, GL8 ES LUZun is also equipped with Buick mute tuning patented mute technology. More than 80% of the vehicle's decorative panels are covered with high-quality sound insulation materials, and the front wall sound insulation pad is made of variable density EVA composite materials, and it is also equipped with Ma brand CC6 pattern silent tires. The quietness in the car has maintained a consistently high level.
As for the power system of the vehicle, the GL8 ES is equipped with the eighth generation Ecotec 2.0T variable-cylinder turbocharged engine and the 9-speed HYDRA-MATIC intelligent gearbox.
Among them, the gearbox has a wider speed ratio range, denser transmission ratio distribution and smoother power output, which is very important for an MPV.
If GL8 ES Lu Zun is for high-end enterprise users or business trips, then GL8Land business class shows the image of IKEA in Shang Yi.
GL8 land business class may not be as "spiritual" as Lu Zun and Avia look, but it also uses Buick family-style flying wing chrome grille and brand-new wing-type full LED automatic induction headlights to create an angular logo front face.
Due to the positioning of the vehicle, there is no connected screen in the car, but the brand-new suspended interior and 12 inch high-definition touch screen can also bring more sense of technology and luxury to the cockpit.
As a multi-scene and multi-purpose MPV, GL8 Land Business Class has launched a newly developed welfare version to meet barrier-free travel.
The welfare version replaces the right seat with a uniform welfare seat, and is equipped with an independent ECU control unit to control electric lifting and rotation.
Ankang chair can be electrically rotated out of the car and its height can be adjusted. After the passenger is seated, it can be retracted into the car and locked, and has a memory function, which makes it easier for people with mobility difficulties to get from the wheelchair to the car.
It has been 22 years since Buick GL8 was listed on 1999, and the five generations of products have evolved.
Nowadays, GL8 is not only labeled as a business trip, but also a choice for private users, whether it is a practical family or a high-end demand for luxury.
In the past April, Buick GL8 sold 965,438+050 vehicles, up 6.6% year-on-year.
Now, after the brand-new GL8 ES and GL8 are listed, they have formed a greater market coverage with the Avia family. With its solid foundation in consumer groups, I am afraid that the only opponent who can affect its sales volume is the future self. (Author | Chu Yunwen)
