Many people choose Japanese cars in order to buy their first car. For beginners, they may not know much about cars. If they want to buy a means of transportation, the most important thing is to worry. Therefore, they will choose some models with high sales volume, which are very common on the street, while Japanese cars have certain advantages because of their high sales volume and large quantity. For example, at the level of10-150,000, many people may choose corolla with their eyes closed. After all, this car is world-famous, everyone is driving, and it is right to choose this car.
However, with the development of the automobile industry and the strong rise of other brands, the advantages of Japanese cars are not as obvious as before, and even models like Corolla have many problems. Most importantly, although most people chose a Japanese car as their first car, they said that they would never choose a Japanese car when changing cars. Why is this? In fact, people are becoming more and more rational in choosing cars, and gradually understand cars and find that Japanese cars have three shortcomings. Can you stand it?
Shortboard 1: poor dynamic performance
Japanese cars are characterized by ride comfort and stability, and they are used to using self-priming engines or CVT gearboxes with relatively old technology, so their performance in power is not outstanding. Now domestic cars have actually far surpassed Japanese cars in power. For example, Toyota RAV4 is a 200,000-class model, and the 2.0L engine has only 1.7 1 horsepower. The price of Chery Tiggo 8 PRO is only 65,438+02.69-65,438+074,900, and it is still a medium-sized SUV. The engine horsepower of 1.6T reaches 197 horsepower, and the engine of 2.0T reaches 254 horsepower. Under the condition of insufficient power, climbing and acceleration of Japanese cars will be weak in use. If many people ride, the power will change obviously.
Short board 2: thin skin, light weight and poor workmanship materials.
Japanese cars are thin and light. In the eyes of Japanese automakers, this is the concept of lightweight cars. The safety is not bad, and it can also reduce weight and fuel consumption. However, in some cases of slight bumps, the damage of Japanese cars is relatively more serious, and the maintenance cost increases. Coupled with the chassis setting, the materials used for work are poor, which makes the driver feel floating and makes the driver have no confidence.
Short board 3: backward design
In fact, the appearance, interior and configuration functions of Japanese cars have always been criticized. A car may not be changed for several years and can't keep up with the times. The interior is even more plastic, which is unacceptable. Even if the family car is located, it will not save the cost. Comparatively speaking, our domestic cars are rich in configuration functions, and the materials used for work are kind, with a sense of luxury and grade. Think about it, the first car was a Japanese car, and I found that the price/performance ratio was not high. Will he still choose a Japanese car when changing cars?
With the technological upgrading of other brands, the advantages of fuel saving, stability and reliability of Japanese cars are not obvious, or even completely surpassed. In addition, people are more and more familiar with cars and more rational in buying cars, so they gradually give up Japanese cars. In my opinion, although our domestic cars developed late, our own brands have actually surpassed Japanese cars in real strength.
Take the Chery Tiggo 8 PRO mentioned above as an example. Its strength is basically to "crush" Japanese cars of the same level. Chery Tiggo 8 PRO is a representative model in the Tiggo 8 champion family, representing the highest product manufacturing standards and quality of Chery. Tiggo 8 champion family represented by Tiggo 8 PRO won the sales champion of China brand medium-sized SUV and 7-seat SUV in 2020/202 12022, and successively won the champion of 3 1 and the product honor of12. Win the love of over 600,000 users at home and abroad. And all new car buyers can enjoy the quality service of lifetime warranty of the whole vehicle. Which Japanese brand has such confidence and confidence now?
Tiggo 8 PRO's confidence and confidence come from its powerful comprehensive strength, and its appearance is designed by space-time matrix, which is very breakthrough. The large-sized blackened dot matrix network is particularly domineering and full of impact. The body lines are smooth and tough, and the tail is equipped with through taillights, which is full of fashion. The body size is 4745 mm *1860 mm *1745 mm, and the wheelbase is 2710 mm. Most Japanese cars of the same class are greasy and bloated in appearance, while the design of Tiggo 8 PRO is more exquisite and atmospheric.
In terms of power, the Tiggo 8 PRO is equipped with engines with the title of "China Heart", namely Kunpeng Power 1.6TGDI and Kunpeng Power 2.0TGDI. It adopts the second-generation intelligent combustion system of i-HEC independently developed by Chery Automobile, which greatly saves fuel consumption, and only needs to add 92 # gasoline, and the power is the strongest at the same level. 1.6TTGDI version can output 197 horsepower and 290n·m, and version 2.0TGDI can output 254 horsepower and 390n·m, matching the 7-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox, and the power is far superior to that of Japanese cars of the same class.
The car adopts the intelligent cockpit of Lion5.0 AI technology, has the industry-leading AI emotional super interactive system, and is equipped with Xiaoqi Intelligent Car Butler 5.0 to realize the all-round AI artificial intelligence evolution of the whole car; Chery's first W-HUD interstellar flight head-up display, navigation and ADAS information can be suspended and visualized;
Chery first launched a 24.6-inch universal nebula immersion surround screen, 12.3-inch integrated LCD dual screen, and a truly curved screen with a curvature of 3000R, which is full of science and technology; Chery launched the Star River Bay Surrounding Atmosphere Light Group, including the central speaker atmosphere light, the super ceiling atmosphere light and the stepless color-changing rhythm atmosphere light. The overall look and feel of this smart cockpit is comparable to that of a million-class luxury car, and Japanese cars of the same level simply cannot reach this level.
The interior space is very spacious, with 5-seat version and 7-seat version. Even in the 7-seat version, adults can easily sit in the third row, and the rear seats can be flat, just like a big bed. The co-pilot is equipped with an adaptive car, with or without a gravity queen. On the basis of "exclusive close-fitting luxury leather seat" and "freely adjustable aviation head pillow", seamless electric leg rest+pneumatic back massage+convenient foot rest are added to protect waist, neck and knees and enjoy SPA-level massage anytime and anywhere.
With people's deeper understanding of cars, everyone knows that whoever is more sincere and whose quality is better will be my choice. Chery Tiggo 8 PRO is far superior to Japanese cars of the same class in terms of power performance, fuel economy, space and intelligent technology performance, and its cost performance is very high. Kunpeng Electric Power enjoys a good reputation at home and abroad. The positioning of medium-sized SUV has a comprehensive texture and the price is lower than that of Japanese compact SUV. Tiggo 8 PRO perfectly interprets the value benchmark of the same price.
