Chery new SUV compromises with 8AT, ZF excludes it, and it is expected to be Aixin. Shengrui may also be
In the field of independent brands, Chery is considered a relatively rare research car company. The concept is already very clear, and it wants to gain a foothold through technology, which is somewhat similar to Japanese brands like Honda Toyota . When it comes to engine technology, Chery now has many advantages in the domestic field. The fuel engine developed by the third generation of technical architecture is very high in thermal efficiency. For example, the high power of the 2.0T version can reach 261 horsepower and a peak torque of 400 Nm. This power system has been used in models such as Xingtu Lanyue, but Chery's high-end cars are still using the dual-clutch transmission , which intuitively makes many consumers feel that it is not high-end, because domestic consumers tend to choose the at-speed gearbox. Recently, the new star Tu Yaoguang has completed its application and announced a lot of detailed configuration information.
This new SUV is positioned at a medium-sized level, with a total body length of 4781mm, a width of 1920mm, and a wheelbase of 2815mm. The overall size performance is relatively close to Honda Crown Road . The styling design is also the roof line of the Honda Crown Road that is not very mainstream. This is obviously a new car that is more sporty than Xingtu Lingyun.
overall design is worthy of praise. You can feel the progress of Chery's designer team. The appearance inherits many concept elements, especially the front face of the front of the car, the air intake center grille keeps up with the trend. In terms of interior, it provides a dual screen with curved effect, and the sophistication of the soft-pack material is improved to a luxury level, which is more like a luxury car than Xingtu Lanyue.
What is worth paying attention to is the gearbox matching. The official has revealed that this model will be equipped with an 8at manual-automatic transmission, but the declaration information does not have the specific model of transmission . Judging from the Mars architecture of this car, it is destined to use the horizontal engine , so the possibility of using the ZF 8at gearbox is ruled out. After all, this is not a hard-core off-road product, and it will not use the vertical transmission with the transmission shaft like the Tank 300 or Beijing bj40.
is more likely to be the Aixin 8at. This gearbox has been used a lot in China. The main products of Changan CS series, the main mass models of SAIC Roewe, and the GAC Trumpchi some mid-to-high-end products are all using the Aixin 8at. The technology is mature and the reliability is high. After use, it can indeed improve the selling points of domestic cars. However, Chery Automobile has never cooperated with Aixin. If it uses Aixin 8at this time, it is destined to make some technical compromises.
Another possibility is to use the Shandong Shengrui 8at gearbox, which is a domestic manual-automatic transmission. It has previously cooperated with the Chery Jietu brand. However, the maximum torque of , , supported by the third generation gearbox product of Shengrui 8at, is 380 Nm, while the peak torque of the Chery 400T version engine is as high as 400 Nm. If the two are forced to match, the engine needs to modify the parameters.
Summary: Chery Automobile is becoming more and more aware of consumers' needs. Even if its dual-clutch transmission performs well, it is always difficult to please some consumers' preferences. Therefore, it is wise to choose the 8at, which depends on the final matching effect.
