In the eyes of most people, it is only a domestic MPV model with a relatively low price, but in fact, when you carefully understand and read it, you will find that it is working hard and growing secretly, striving to become a high-quality representative of the MPV market, and has shown impressive results, which is far from simple, as can be seen from the comfort of the seats.
China people always have high requirements for comfort, but China people's posture, posture and usage habits are often very different from those in Europe and America. It is not that the seats of the joint venture brand cars are not good, but that it is difficult to meet the actual needs of Chinese people. As an independent brand, Geely undoubtedly knows more about the comfort needs of Chinese people, and has carried out targeted development, and established an intelligent modular seat technology center with independent definition, research and development and production capabilities.
After the test drive, the author visited Geely Intelligent Module Seat Technology Center. It is understood that it collects 65,438+0,000 Asian riding data every year, carries out body pressure test and records the pressure data, and uses this as a reference to optimize the seat support and skeleton structure to meet the seat comfort requirements of Chinese people.
Its interior adopts V-shaped patent skeleton and is filled with unique foaming formula. In addition, the bionic leather cover is optimized to be baby-friendly, and at the same time 1000+ the body contact surface of passengers breathing in Kong Ling is comfortable and breathable. From the actual riding experience, it does show good riding comfort, and the waist support and leg support can greatly relieve the trunk pressure. At the same time, the side support can also wrap the body well.
In addition to creating more comfortable riding performance, it is also an improvement in safety. 202 1 Geely Cargill's airbag assembled on the seat only needs 2ms to explode, which can quickly support people in case of danger. At the same time, the splash after initiation shall not exceed 5g, so as to avoid secondary injury to human body.
In addition, the part that best reflects the efforts behind 202 1 Geely Cargill is the powertrain. In most people's car selection standards, power always ranks first. Strong enough; Is the shift smooth enough and the chassis comfortable enough? Generally speaking, the answer of Geely Cargill 202 1 is quite satisfactory.
There are four power versions of 202 1 Geely Cargill * *: 1.8TD+7DCT, 1.5TD+6MT, 1.5TD+48V+7DCT, 1.5td+7dct plug-in. The model we test-drive is a version equipped with 1.8T engine, with the maximum power of 183 horsepower (135kW) and the peak torque of 300 N m. It is matched with a 7DCT gearbox.
Needless to say, the power is 300n·m, which is enough to meet the actual needs of most users. More worrying than the engine is the performance of the 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox. To be honest, there is no need to worry about the performance of the gearbox. In a word, if I don't tell you it's a dual-clutch gearbox, you might even think it's a CVT gearbox, and you can hardly feel its shifting action, including somatosensory and auditory, throughout the driving range.
If you insist on finding fault, you can only say that the actual performance of this powertrain is a bit lazy and always works in the second half. However, it can also be understood that as an MPV model, more people still need a relatively comfortable and soft riding environment, and strong power will always make people feel that it is too early and abrupt.
After the main part, let's look at the relatively minor design part. In the past, it was the design part that was criticized by independent brands, and many hats such as plagiarism and stacking were deducted. Now it is not the same. Independent brands have gradually gained their own understanding of design, and the materials and shapes have been improved to varying degrees.
Take 202 1 Geely Cargill as an example. The new car has a brand-new Geely brand LOGO, and the interior changes from blue to black, which is more textured. The interior with leather and chrome plating is both luxurious and scientific. In addition, in the design of materials, it has also been upgraded from simple modeling to safety level. Under the premise of not affecting the impression, more safety materials are used to create interiors. Won the C-ECAP 2065 438+09 Platinum Ecological Assessment, and became the only MPV in China that passed the highest standard platinum certification for ecological safety.
On the whole, it's the same view. On the surface, 202 1 Geely Cargill is simply an MPV model, but little-known efforts have been made in comfort, safety and design. This feeling is like a person, seemingly simple and modest, but he doesn't know how many awards he has won behind him and how much potential knowledge he has in his mind. This hidden feeling may have to wait for him to accompany it in the future.
