In particular, A0-class small SUVs have been increasingly sought after by these consumers in the past two years. There are two main reasons for this. The first is the model price. Often, the price of this class of cars is about 80-65438+10,000 yuan, which is not high in terms of car purchase cost or future maintenance and car use cost. The second is nothing more than a compact body, which is very conducive to urban travel and convenient.
In the product sequence of GAC Chuanqi, the GS3 positioned as a small SUV belongs to the entry-level model of the brand. Since 20 17, the first generation models have been selling well in the market by virtue of their more balanced product strength compared with competing models of the same level.
Nowadays, in order to further enhance the product strength and meet the needs of more consumers, GAC Chuanqi GS3 upgraded the model GS3? Power is coming. What are the highlights of the new car compared with cash? Then look down and you will know.
The fashionable and avant-garde appearance is very "able to fight"
Appearance, GS3? Power adopts the design language of family Lingyun Wing 3.0. By adjusting the parts and details, it is more dynamic than the current models and more in line with the young consumers' pursuit of individuality.
The front face adopts a new style of air intake grille, which is officially called "supersonic fighter grille". The area of the air intake grille has become wider, and it is connected with LED headlights with a sense of science and technology on both sides, which effectively broadens the horizontal visual width of the front face.
The interior of the air intake grille incorporates the Y-shaped design elements of the fighter, and with the horizontal red trim, it looks quite young and sporty. In particular, the connection of the two fog lights at the bottom is just right, which adds a sense of strength to the front face.
Look away, GS3? The overall shape of the power is not much different from the current models. The main difference is that it adopts a brand-new style of two-color wheels, suspended roof and two-color body, which can definitely meet the aesthetic needs of most consumers.
In addition, the new GS3 provides five body painting colors, which are more bright moon gray and ice navy blue than in the past; It also has a sports edition. Compared with the ordinary models, the front mesh, rims and other places will adopt more red and black contrast designs.
In terms of size, GS3? The power length, width and height are 4350/1825/1660 (1685) mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2560 mm. Except for a slight adjustment of the body height, other dimensions are consistent with the current models.
In the rear part, although the new car has been redesigned, the main changes are still focused on the details.
For example, a brand-new style and taillight group are installed, and the whole line layout inside the lamp group is blackened, so that the recognition after lighting is higher. At the bottom, the original bilateral * * * double exhaust decoration of the current model is cancelled, and the visual integrity is stronger.
Indoor atmosphere, scientific and technological movement
Compared with the upgrade of appearance, GS3? The interior of the power has also undergone dramatic changes.
The center console adopts a smoother and richer line design. Borderless 7-inch LCD instrument, 10.25-inch central control panel, adopting the popular continuous screen design. The resolutions of the two screens are 800*480 and 1920*720 respectively, and the display quality is very good.
In terms of interior materials, the overall materials are also superior, such as door panels, instrument tables and other areas that are often in contact with each other are wrapped in leather; The addition of stitching and carbon fiber-like decorative board improves the interior texture.
Besides, GS3? Power provides three interior colors to choose from, and the theme of all black/black red/black yellow is more youthful and energetic.
Of course, if we want to cater to young consumers, car intelligence is also a point that cannot be ignored. GS3? Powered by GAC's latest ADiGO intelligent driving Internet ecosystem, it supports QQ music, listening to books, news, high-tech navigation, OTA upgrade and other functions. The voice interactive system provided by Iflytek can control the sunroof switch and seat heating.
It is worth mentioning that voice interaction supports 90-second wakeup-free operation, which is practical, accurate and convenient to use.
In terms of intelligent security configuration, Bosch ESP is standard in all departments. 9.3 The system is equipped with "14 in one" active safety, such as HHC uphill assist and HDC downhill assist, and equipment such as cruise control and lane departure warning can also meet daily driving needs.
As for space and comfort, GS3? The overall performance of the power is also very good.
First of all, its seat is designed based on the design concept of GAC's new generation platform seat, which has good support for the shoulders and waist of the occupant and fits the body well.
Secondly, for the height 172 experiencers, there is plenty of head space and leg space in the front and rear rows, leaving a margin of about one punch. The bulge of the middle platform in the rear row is not high, and the equipment of the rear center armrest, headrest, air conditioning outlet and USB charging interface also greatly improves the ride comfort.
In terms of storage space, thanks to the small SUV trunk space is not large, but the rear seats support 4/6 ratio, and the daily storage demand is sufficient.
Full of power to adjust eccentric motion
In terms of power, GS3? In terms of power, the original 1.5T three-cylinder engine was cancelled and replaced by a brand-new Chuanqi third-generation 1.5TGDI four-cylinder turbocharged engine, and the patented technology of GCCS combustion control was adopted, which improved many parameters and performance indexes of the engine.
The maximum engine power 124kW, peak torque of 265Nm and 0- 100km/h acceleration time of 8.7 seconds. In terms of transmission, it matches the 6AT transmission from Aisin, which meets the national emission standard of six B.
In the actual driving experience, GS3? The first feeling that power gives me is lightness. Thanks to the low inertia turbocharger, GS3? Power gives consideration to both high-speed power and low torque, and the power output of lightly stepping on the accelerator in the initial stage is linear; When you step on the accelerator pedal, the power can't keep up. After the turbine intervention, the power output will continue to follow your feet, and most overtaking and merging are easy.
The shifting logic of the transmission is also clear, and the shifting response is very positive. You can obviously feel that it actively cooperates with you during driving.
The test drive location is in Chongqing, and the test drive route also has continuous ups and downs of mountain roads. Motivation will not give you the feeling of lack of motivation. As long as the accelerator is stepped on, the power output can keep up with the rhythm.
In addition, there are three driving modes to choose from, and the steering force, throttle and brake pedal adjustment are all moderate.
In terms of suspension, the former McPherson independent suspension and the rear torsion beam suspension are adopted, which are also the most common chassis systems in the same class, but how to adjust the GS3? The overall power is eccentric, and you can feel the tightness of the chassis.
The only disadvantage is that the rear passengers are not as comfortable as the front passengers after continuous bumps, which is of course the disadvantage of the rear torsion beam suspension.
In terms of sound insulation performance, it can be said that GS3? Power also left a deep impression on me. The wind noise and tire noise at high speed are within a reasonable range, and the normal conversation of people in the car will not be affected when the vehicle speed is around110 km/h. At traffic lights such as urban roads, the engine idling sound is also very small and the cab is very quiet.
abstract
After this test drive, GAC Chuanqi GS3? The performance of motivation is undoubtedly remarkable.
The appearance is more fashionable, the interior and interior intelligence can keep up with the times, meet the actual needs of young consumers, and the performance in power is also worthy of recognition. It is a "impartial" strength.
It is reported that the new car will be pre-sold in September 19, and interested friends may wish to pay more attention. iDailycar
