[Original by Dongchedi Product] Buick products are still known for their mature and steady style in the inherent impression of most friends. Although there are many models under it that are "exclusive" to young consumers like Regal GS, looking at Buick's product matrix in the domestic market, there are very few models that can attract young people.

new car features
high overall styling design can be seen separately. The shadow of the Electra-X concept car
Buick's SUV family has always used the naming method of "Enco X". What we are familiar with are Encore , Enco flag and Encora , etc. At this year's Chengdu Auto Show , Buick released a new compact SUV - Ultimate. Its name has only two characters, and its naming method is slightly different from previous products. Of course, the more "different" is its overall design style. Recently, we also conducted a test drive experience on the new car.
The new car is significantly younger than the Encore GX
Highly Normal Edition
Highly appearance and interior adopt the latest design language of the Buick family, and is the first SUV equipped with the new Buick logo. The car has now started pre-sale. Buick previously announced the price starts at 150,000 yuan. It is also reported that the new car will be officially launched on September 23.
The center network adopts bright black decoration, with exquisite details
According to the current known information, Ang Yang will be divided into two versions. This test drive is the top-end GS version. Compared with the upstart regular version, the interior of the front grille has been changed from multiple banners to black grid design, and a red GS letter logo has been added. At the same time, including the side window frame, exterior mirror shell, rim and other details, the Angry GS adopts black highlight treatment.
headlight group uses LED light source
In terms of details, the high-spirited front design shows a certain three-dimensional feeling, the center grille position is moved downward, and chrome trim is embellished on both sides. The headlight group has a slender and sharp shape, and its personality characteristics are more prominent, which also makes the front face of the whole vehicle more recognizable.
overall size is larger than the Buick compact SUV Encore GX currently on sale.
Continental Ultra Contact UC6, specifications are 225/55 R18
Large sloping back design style is very distinctive
From the side, the overall high-yang has a coupe-style SUV styling style, and the rear half of the body is a large sloping back design. In terms of body size, the length, width and height are 4638/1816/1565 mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2700 mm. The overall size is larger than the Encore GX, the Buick compact SUV currently on sale.
The high-end rear highlights the layering feeling and is also designed with a "little ducktail". Although the sloping back lines at the rear of the car are obvious, the actual angle of the line sliding is not large, and such "operation" also ensures that the rear seating space will not be sacrificed too much.
rear surround is equipped with silver decorative parts
trunk regular space is 421 liters, and the storage capacity is worthy of recognition
test drive car is equipped with electric tailgate function. It is expected that after it is launched, this function will also be exclusive to high-end or top-end models. In terms of storage, the entire car provides 28 storage space, and the trunk space under standard conditions is 421 liters. If all the 4/6-divided rear seats are folded down, the loading space can be expanded to 1273 liters, and the loading capacity is worthy of recognition. The interior of
is equipped with a dual-connection screen
GS model has red stitching embellishment
The new brand logo on the steering wheel brings a freshness
In terms of interior, the upstart car adopts the latest Buick family interior design style, and the center console is equipped with a new inverted trapezoidal dual-connection screen, which consists of a 10.25-inch LCD instrument panel and a 10.25-inch multimedia display. At the same time, the GS version of this actual shot is in red and black color style, and has a GS logo on the headrest and gear shift lever areas.
Full LCD instrument can display navigation, car-machine interconnection and other information
dashboard display is clear, and the partitions of various functions are clear, and the operation is consistent with previous Buick models. At the same time, navigation map information, music playback information, etc. can also be displayed synchronously on the instrument.
curved dual screens are both 10.25 inches
The latest iteration of Buick eConnect system
supports Apple CarPlay mobile phone interconnection function
car machine interconnection, In terms of car machine interconnection, UAYANG took the lead in adopting the latest iteration of Buick eConnect system, whose computing power and memory are nearly 1 times higher than the previous generation, bringing a smoother human-computer interaction experience. The new car's central control screen adopts a flat UI design , supporting a custom card-style interactive interface.
At the same time, new functions such as Sui Xinkan App, Baidu intelligent voice system, Baidu Map car version, etc. The "Three Guided Navigation Flying Screen" can "slide" the central control navigation to the instrument display. In addition, the new car is also equipped with wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless charging functions.
reverse image display is clear, the viewing angle is adjustable
retains the physical operation button of the air conditioner
test drive car is equipped with a streaming rearview mirror
reverse image display is clear, and panoramic camera helps drivers observe the surrounding environment more accurately. Below the large screen is the air conditioning operation area. The new car is equipped with automatic air conditioning and front seat heating functions. The existence of physical buttons makes daily operation more convenient. In addition, the test drive car is equipped with streaming rearview mirrors.
GS version is equipped with overflower seats
front seat cushions and backrests are made of overflower material. It is expected that this material is exclusive to the top-end model. At the same time, in order to highlight the sense of sportiness, the edges of the seats are also decorated with red stitching. The test drive car supports electric adjustment of the main driver, and other seats are manually adjusted.
power system
1.5T turbocharged four-cylinder engine
CVT continuously variable transmission
power, Ang Yang is equipped with a 1.5T four-cylinder engine with a maximum power of 132 kilowatts and a maximum speed of 205 km/h. This engine can release 250 Nm of maximum torque of in a wide speed range of 1500-5000 rpm. The transmission system that matches the engine is a CVT gearbox. The official "zero hundred" acceleration time is 7.9 seconds.
Front McPherson rear torsion beam suspension structure
Test drive experience
High start is very light and suitable for urban use
Like many Buick's small-displacement turbocharged models, the power response of the high-yang in the early stage has also been adjusted very positively. In the initial stage, as long as you step on the accelerator pedal lightly, the vehicle can give very positive feedback, and even feel like "striking" forward. This tuning style can make urban transportation vehicles more handy.
steering feedback force is moderate, pointing to accurate
mid- and rear-end acceleration capability is also worthy of recognition
engine's maximum torque starts to explode at 1500 rpm, and the maximum torque platform is relatively wide. After starting, the acceleration stage is in progress, and the high-yang also showed a positive power response. Whether it is urban low-speed transportation or high-speed cruising driving, the high-spirited power can meet the requirements of use, and the rapid acceleration ability when overtaking and connecting to the line is also worthy of recognition. At the same time, the new car has also done some extra "work" in sound insulation, and the hood is equipped with sound insulation cotton , so the shape transmission of the engine is not obvious when the vehicle is driving.
chassis adjustment focuses more on displaying the sporty
chassis. The new car adopts a front McPherson independent suspension and a rear torsion beam non-independent suspension structure. The McPherson front suspension optimizes designs such as the suspension on the front sling and shock absorbers with restoration springs. The chassis adjustment of the Ultimate vehicle is more sporty. When cornering, the suspension can provide strong support for the body. At the same time, the vehicle also shows good follow-up when changing lines quickly. At the same time, the suspension is not so good at handling fine bumps on the road. When driving on some stone pavements in Dali, the fine bumps will be clearly transmitted to the car.
fine bumps and vibrations are easier to pass into the car
It is expected that the top-end models will be equipped with ACC adaptive cruise system
The vehicle we tested is equipped with ACC adaptive cruise system, and it is expected that this configuration will only appear on top-end models in the future. The ACC starts with one click, and its follow-up distance can be manually adjusted. During the acceleration and deceleration process of following the car in front, the system responds faster, but the softness and smoothness of the intervention still have room for optimization.
Overall, Angry has opened a new chapter in Buick's compact SUV design. From the inside, the new cars have shown a "young feeling" and their personality has also been significantly improved compared with previous models. At the same time, in terms of car-machine interconnection, Angry's performance is also remarkable. The 1.5T+CVT power combination takes into account both power and energy consumption, making it more suitable for urban car use scenarios. If the terminal price can show more sincerity in the future, I believe that its sales performance can change the "decline" of Encore GX.
competitor
Honda ZR-V Zhizai (prices 159,900-195,900 yuan)
As a new generation SUV product created by the Buick brand, Ang Yang may replace the current market position of Encore GX after it is launched in the future. For reference, the price range of Encore GX is between 155,900 and 185,900 yuan. In terms of competitors, it is expected that the potential competitors of the same level of the same level after the launch of the Angyang market will point to models such as Honda ZR-V (prices of 159,900-195,900 yuan), Toyota RAV4 Rongfang. The new car will be officially launched on the 23rd of this month. Please continue to pay attention to the reports of the Emperor's Vision.
