I met my tiger for the first time.
Advantages of platformization
Suspension widely used in vehicles now
Chery's cage
20 16 Chery Automobile officially announced the brand-new T 1X platform in Shanghai Technology Center. (It is said to be the integration of Jaguar Land Rover and Qoros Technology, Qoros? Hey! What a pity! The biggest advantage of this technology is that it can shorten the research and development cycle and reduce production costs. Different grades of vehicles can be produced on the same platform through different calibration of suspension and wheelbase. In fact, you can observe the chassis of Tiggo 8. The suspension is very similar to the Tiggo 7, which also comes from the T 1X platform, but in some details, the Tiggo 8 has made some adjustments to the passenger space in the third row. The same platform will generally have the same design concept and the same technical level, and the safety structure of the whole vehicle will be close to the same level. Of course, some security configurations with more configurations don't count! Accessories of the same platform have certain interoperability!
The collision test of Tiggo 8 hasn't come out yet (don't tell me the collision test starting with the letter C, I won't watch it). Just look at the collision map of Gateway X70 on the same platform. Everyone is most concerned about the 25% offset collision. According to the test photos released by China Insurance Research Institute, the A-pillar has completely withstood the impact, the airbag has been accurately opened to catch the dummy's head, and the front door itself has no obvious deformation and extrusion. Many high-priced models are in this link, and the A-pillar is almost finished.
From the picture, the side collision feels ok. If it can be customized, I would like to cancel the sunroof and replace it with two airbags. After all, life is only once, and these security configurations are still good after all. I still have confidence in the collision test of Tiggo 8, after all, it is a little higher than the positioning of Gateway.
The multi-link independent suspension adopted by the Tiggo 8 is also a common structure in urban SUV models, and the joint venture brand and China brand are similar in this respect. Although there are many different types of multi-link structures, the "E-type multi-link" used by Tiggo 8 must be familiar to many people, and many models of Chery use this suspension. Of course, it can't be said that independent hanging is necessarily good (just like a chef cooking, a good chef can make a good product with good materials, a good chef can also make a good style with bad materials, and a bad chef can't make anything with good materials, for example, the legal system has stopped for several years, and the chassis adjusted by others feels good)? Many riders say that Chery's suspension is hard, in fact, these are different preferences. BMW's MINI is not as hard as a shock absorber, and not many people buy it. Personally, I am very satisfied with this suspension. I don't like the feeling of driving a big boat. What I have done most often over the past year is to drive the Tiger 8 into the mountains and walk along the mountain trails. I found that the suspension support of Tiger 8 was in place, and there were many bends in the mountain road. The body posture after turning around is good, and it won't give you a feeling of being thrown out. At high speed, the body is in a very stable posture (it will not float easily).
Tiger 8 took me to see the new tiger 8.
