Currently, Ideal L8 has been gradually launched and delivered. After a test drive arrives at the Ideal retail center, I also experienced this car as soon as possible. Since its elder brother, Ideal L9, is the best home SUV within 5 million, today's Ideal L8 is the best home SUV within 3 million?
is a joke. After my experience, although I can't surpass them compared to BMW X5L, Mercedes-Benz GLE, etc., which are also medium and large SUVs, Ideal L8 cannot surpass them, but compared to its previous old model of the same price - Ideal ONE, the new Ideal L8 can be said to have crushed in all aspects.
In terms of appearance, Ideal L8 and L9 adopt the same design, and the closed grille design has the feeling of new energy vehicle than Ideal ONE. The front face uses a through-type light strip as the daytime running light, and adopts a split light group design. The high and low beam light group is located on both sides below, and the front of the car gives people a strong sense of sci-fi.
As a home SUV, of course, the larger the size, the better. The body size of the Ideal L8 is one lap bigger than that of the Ideal ONE. The body size is 5080/1995/1800mm, the wheelbase is 3005mm, and it is positioned as a medium-sized SUV.
There are four screens in the car, namely HUD + safe driving interactive screen + central control screen + co-driver entertainment screen. If you choose the top version, there will be an additional rear entertainment screen. Human-machine interaction has always been the strength of new car companies. With the words "ideal classmate", you can master the driving mode, air conditioning, and multimedia at will. The materials and workmanship of the interior of
also maintains an ideal high level, and the seat filling is particularly soft. What I am most satisfied with is that the two independent seats in the second row are spacious and comfortable, the seat height is just right, and it also supports seat heating, ventilation and massage. If there are elderly people at home, this is definitely a big advantage. The ideal ONE before
, although the appearance, interior, that is, the static part, although there is nothing wrong with it, and the workmanship and materials are all excellent, the engine is noisy when driven, and the chassis is broken, and the mechanical quality is really not satisfactory.
However, after the power and chassis of Ideal L8 have been innovated, the previous problems have also been solved. First of all, the engine has been replaced by the original 1.2T three-cylinder to the new 1.5T four-cylinder, which still only provides an extended range. The comprehensive power of the entire system consisting of dual electrical mechanisms equipped with front and rear reaches 330kW, and the maximum torque of comprehensive 620N·m. The official acceleration time given by the 000 km is 5.5 seconds. When the power is sufficient, the pushback feel is still very strong. The electric gate is also very light to release power, but the power will be a little tired when feeding power.
chassis adopts a brand new design, adopts a suspension layout with front double wishbone and rear multi-link, and is also equipped with air suspension standard. Walking on fine and bumpy roads, it does have a sense of suspension brought by air suspension, and it also has sufficient filtering for small shattered shocks. If I were asked to pick up some faults, it would be a bit hard when facing larger ups and downs, such as speed bumps. Although the overall feeling is not as good as the BMW X5 , the chassis level of the Volvo XC90 is quite close to that of the chassis.
Finally, if I choose to buy the ideal L8 myself, I would choose the Pro version model priced at 359,800 yuan. The difference is that there are two speakers and a screen in the rear row, as well as a higher-level intelligent assisted driving system. For people like me who like to drive by myself, it is completely enough to have ACCh and LCC. So if you are also interested in Ideal L8, you can experience it yourself. Believe me, it has really made great progress than Ideal ONE.
