With the popularity of new energy vehicles, it will be easier for potential consumers to choose hybrid models. GAC Toyota Rayling Twin has grasped the pain points of consumers. In terms of economy, reliability and control, there are basically no competitors, which is also its killer weapon with hot sales.

However, in order to continue to seize the compact hybrid sedan market, GAC Trumpchi even launched the Shadow Leopard hybrid version while the iron is hot. The new car is equipped with GAC Trumpchi's second hybrid technology GMC 2.0 system. So how does it perform? Can it shake the king , Leiling, double-engine ? Let’s compare it below.

basic information points comparison of two cars

What are the highlights of Trumpchi Julang Hybrid GMC 2.0 system?

I believe everyone is familiar with the Toyota THS II hybrid system equipped with the Leiling Dual Engine. This system is unique to PSD planetary gear "black technology", which realizes full-speed intelligent hybrid driving, and improves energy utilization in all aspects. The 1.8L Atkinson cycle engine has a thermal efficiency of up to 40%, further improving energy-saving performance and making the fuel consumption of the Raylin twin engine as low as 4.0L/100km.

What are the highlights of GAC Trumpchi’s Julang hybrid GMC 2.0 system? In fact, Trumpchi is currently the only Chinese brand in China that has dual-route hybrid technology. The GMC 2.0 series-parallel hybrid system and THS power shunt system together form GAC's Julang hybrid brand. The Toyota THS hybrid system equipped with GS8 has been released in a lot of reviews and interpretations in the year, so today we will focus on introducing the GMC 2.0 system.

actually started the research and development of hybrid models as early as 2009, and the Trumpchi GS4 PHEV, which was launched in 2017, pioneered the domestic dual-motor series-parallel DHT. This system can be regarded as a GMC 1.0 system. The GMC 2.0 system launched this year adopts the latest technology and consists of a 2.0ATK (Atkinson Cycle) engine, an integrated dual-motor two-speed DHT, a power ternary lithium battery, and a full-speed domain full-field intelligent energy management strategy.

, the 2.0L Atkinson cycle engine, is the fourth generation of high-efficiency naturally aspirated engine independently developed by GAC. It adopts GCCS combustion control system, intelligent thermal management, exhaust gas recirculation , noise reduction design and other technologies. The maximum thermal efficiency can reach 42.1%, which is higher than that of Toyota and Honda.

integrated dual motor DHT adopts a two-speed structure. Compared with systems like Honda i-MMD that use E-CVT, one more gear can make the engine efficient work more extensively and further improve fuel economy. The entire electromechanical coupled system of GMC 2.0 can achieve a thermal efficiency utilization rate of ≥95.5% of the hybrid system under WLTC conditions. The

GMC 2.0 system can realize five modes: pure electric, series (extended range) mode, parallel, direct drive, and energy recovery. Through the full-speed domain intelligent energy management strategy , the system can intervene and optimize the system's working status in advance based on real-time road conditions, vehicle status and other information. For example, when road congestion is congested, the power planning can be adjusted in real time according to the degree of congestion to reduce the engine intervention in congestion conditions; it can also automatically identify the following status, adjust the energy recovery intensity in real time, reduce the number of times the driver's brake operation, and improve the driving experience and economy.

Who has a better appearance? In terms of the appearance of

, there is no need to introduce the Yingbao car too much. The fighter-style theme design and dazzling color scheme are impressive. In the hybrid version, it has not changed too much, and it still uses the entire design language, with only some differences in local details. In addition, the hybrid version offers a brand new exclusive color - Super Star Silver.

The front face of the Rayling dual-engine still adopts Toyota's family-style design. The inverted trapezoidal air intake grille is large and the interior is decorated with blackened honeycomb elements, which looks very home-style.The main changes in the sports series models are the center grid grille on the front face. The new car adopts a larger area and more visual impact polygon grille, and the interior is still a familiar all-black honeycomb shape.

body size, Yingbao Hybrid has a length, width and height of 4700/1850/1440mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2736mm. Although it is positioned as a compact sedan, this size and wheelbase are already a B-class car, ten years ago. The length, width and height of the Leiling dual-engine are 4640/1780/1435mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2700mm. Just looking at the book data, Yingle Hybrid will have a more advantage.

In addition, the bottom of the Yingbao hybrid adopts a diffuser design and double-sided four-exhaust exhaust, which looks very performance-intensive. However, since it is a hybrid body, this exhaust is not as passionate and surging. In contrast, the exhaust layout of the Rayling twin engine adopts a hidden design, which looks relatively low-key. In terms of appearance, the Shadow Leopard hybrid design is very radical and dynamic, with a strong overall design sense and very personality; the Rayling twin engine runs through Toyota's low-key style, and the front face adopts various unconventional design lines, which looks more home-oriented and is also very pleasing to the eye. Of course, whether it looks good or not depends on the person, and what you like is the best one.

whose cockpit is smarter?

Shadow Leopard Hybrid Cockpit also retains the entire design on the fuel version, but adds a new blue and white color scheme exclusive to the hybrid version. While enhancing the technological texture, the interior incorporates more sporty elements, making it stand out in family cars. As for the configuration, it has dual LCD screens, motion instruments, Huawei Hi Car interconnection system, and supports current mainstream functions such as CarPlay and Carlife mobile phone interconnection.

Leiling Dual Engine still adopts a relatively classic "T" layout, with reasonable layout and partitioning, and nothing particularly outstanding. Everything is mainly functional, which is also the attitude that a family car should have. The Advancement and Leadership versions have added Apple CarPlay and Huawei HiCar functions, and the Deluxe, Sports, Technology and Exclusive versions have added Sky White body color. The interior designs of the two cars have their own advantages. Compared with the interior layout of Leiling Shuangqing, which is home-oriented, Yingbao Hybrid will be better in creating a sense of technology and other caring configurations.

Who has more configuration?

Whether you want to buy a coupe or a home scooter, the configuration will be a consideration for consumers. Below, we selected two models with with a small price difference in for comparison.

can be seen from the above table that the configuration of the two models with similar prices in the Zhongying Leopard Hybrid will be richer. Compared with the Leiling Dual Engine, it has more functions such as active noise reduction system, automatic reversing of the rearview mirror, delayed headlights, and trunk sensing turn on.

Who has more spacious space?

Although the body size of the Shadow Leopard Hybrid will have a more advantage than the Leiling Dual Engine. However, the two cars are positioned in a compact manner, so there should not be much difference in actual riding space. However, the size of the riding space is only one aspect that affects the riding experience. Objective factors such as reasonable layout, seat material/wrapping, etc. will also affect the riding experience.

can be seen that the seat comfort configuration of the two roof versions will have a more advantage. In terms of actual riding space, due to the fact that the experiencer's height and weight cannot be unified, the following effects are for reference only.

Two-vehicle power/driving performance compared with

power, Yingbao Hybrid is equipped with GAC's independently developed GMC2.0 hybrid system, including GAC's fourth-generation 2.0ATK engine and GMC2.0 electromechanical coupling system, with WLTC comprehensive fuel consumption of 4.33L/100km.

Rayling twin engine is equipped with Toyota's latest THS Toyota hybrid system, which consists of a 1.8L naturally aspirated engine , energy control unit ECU, a new nickel-hydrogen battery pack, and a pair of newly designed parallel shaft motors. It matches it with the E-CVT gearbox. NEDC comprehensive working conditions fuel consumption is 4.0L/100km.

Shadow Leopard Hybrid Edition Driving Performance:

In fact, we had already experienced this GMC 2.0 system as early as April this year. At that time, it was installed on Shadow Leopard. The whole car was still in the PT1 trial installation, but its power performance, smoothness and quietness all awesome. The Shadow Leopard Hybrid we tested this time is a test-loading vehicle belonging to the PT2 stage and is very close to mass production.

, like other HEV models, uses pure electric drive when starting with light pedal, avoiding the low-speed operating conditions where the development engine is most fuel-consuming. If the throttle starts with a big foot, the system will recognize your power needs, and the engine and the drive motor work together to give you a stronger sense of power. The 2.0ATK engine equipped with the Shadow Leopard Hybrid is 105 kW, 180 Nm, and the driving motor power is 134 kW, 300 Nm, which is very close to the Honda Civic e:HEV, but the total system power is 149kW, while the Shadow Leopard Hybrid reaches 175kW. How to do it? It mainly lies in the power battery used in the GMC2.0 system. It has a larger capacity, 2.1kWh, a maximum discharge power of 70kW, and has stronger acceleration and explosive power. When you actually open

, you can clearly feel that this GMC2.0 system has a very good power. Even in the energy-saving mode, relying on pure electric drive, the acceleration is still very light. It is even more rapid in the sports mode. The engine and the motor are driven in parallel at the same time, and the push-back feels quite strong. The power level of the entire system is equivalent to that of the 2.0T engine.

According to official information, the acceleration time of Yingbao Hybrid from 0 to 60km/h is only 3.4 seconds, which is faster than other models of the same level. As for the actual acceleration results and the 000 acceleration time, we need to use professional equipment to test it later before we can know it. In addition to being very refreshing to drive, the quietness of this system is also very good. Since the engine uses dual hydraulic suspension, the start and stop action is extremely slight, it is difficult to detect without looking at the tachometer and . And it is still quite quiet and stable even at high speeds, and you can hear the engine running at high speeds, but it is not noisy. The smoothness of the system

is also worth mentioning. The hybrid systems of Toyota, Honda, , BYD, are all "unshifted" and belong to E-CVT or single-speed structures. GMC2.0's first dual-motor parallel-axis series-parallel system adopts a two-speed DHT structure. Why doesn’t

use three gears like the hybrid system of Geely or Chery ? This is the best solution after weighing multiple factors. The two-speed structure allows the engine to operate efficiently within a wider range, and can also avoid the increase in volume, weight, and claws caused by excessive gears.

can really feel that whether it is continuous acceleration or stop-and-go, this gear shifting mechanism will not bring any sense of jerks, and it is indeed smoother than some three-speed DHTs of other brands. In terms of

chassis, Yingbao uses the front McPherson rear multi-link four-wheel independent suspension . Compared with other models of the same price, Yingbao is indeed more willing to take the lead in this regard. As a sedan that emphasizes the fun of sports, the multi-link rear suspension does have higher sports limits than the non-unique suspension. The tires will be more grounded in different road conditions.

In addition, the hybrid version of Yingbao has a lower power system and power battery arrangement, and the center of gravity of the vehicle is 12mm lower than that of the fuel version, so the stability will also be improved when cornering. In terms of shock filtering, Shadow Leopard also has good performance. After bumpy roads, the shock absorbing spring can fully absorb the impact and rebound relatively straightforward. The overall chassis texture is worthy of recognition.

Rayling dual-engine driving performance:

Rayling dual-engine starts mainly driven by the motor intervention. The motor's response speed is not only very fast, but also very quiet. If the fuel supply starts slowly, the power system will keep the motor output in one direction until the vehicle speed exceeds 30km/h or the power is insufficient, the engine will not intervene significantly.

The new balance shaft dual motor and engine are worthy of praise.Whether it is slow acceleration or rapid acceleration, the entire power system can give people a satisfactory power response, neither procrastinating nor provoking, and it feels just right.

Leiling Twin Engine still provides three driving mode choices, namely ECO, NORMAL and SPORT modes. When switching, just press the small button with square gear area, and the specific mode can be displayed on the instrument screen.

steering feel is still a tough setting, not having any reflexive feelings for Zi Jing Piaopiao, the sporty texture is indeed more obvious, and it is more stable when driving at high speed. The new rear independent suspension equipped with the Rayling dual-engine assembly makes the vehicle's rear seat significantly optimized the vehicle's rear seat experience. Even when encountering a turbulent road section, the damping setting of the shock absorber can resolve the jump, and try to make the rear wheels grab the ground well, so that the rear wheels can not throw the rear passengers to the roof.

When the full text of

Trumpchi Shadow Leopard was launched, it was very popular with its hard-core styling design and good power. Just like the Civic and the Focus back then, they used the price of traditional family cars to give more sporty performance and control, allowing more young people with low capital to enjoy the driving pleasure they want. The launch of the Shadow Leopard hybrid version is in addition to the smooth In addition to the development of the new energy market, consumers' choices have been further enriched.

Of course, the Leiling Shuangxing is not a fuel-efficient lamp. It has always had a high reputation and good sales in this domestic market segment. What is important is that Toyota also has a high value retention rate in the used car market. If you have a distinct personality and want to have more driving pleasure, the Yingbao Hybrid is worth recommending; if you just want to choose a more reliable and fuel-efficient family car, the Leiling Shuangxing will be a good choice. As for how to choose two cars, I believe everyone has their own answers!
