In some cities with limited purchases, many families have only one car purchase index, so a car model that can meet the needs of most households has become the main demand. It needs not only large space, strong power, loadability, but also mainstream brand. "Atmosphere" does not lose face. In the author's impression, there are two models that are very suitable for demand-Buick Encore Flag and Ford New Explorer. As the most representative products of American brand SUV in China, the positioning of both vehicles has come to the medium and large level. The sixth-generation explorers realized domestic production not long ago, which lowered the entry barrier; Angke Flag has been called a product that can challenge Highlander since its listing. When it comes to reality, who is more worth buying these two models with good product strength?
Both cars have come to the positioning of large SUVs of their respective brands. The price basically covers the range of 300,000 to 400,000. For the most mainstream household consumers, this is also a range that can be taken into consideration. In order to better demonstrate the strength of their respective products, this time we have selected two models with the same price and higher configuration. In the market, Buike Angke Banner, which has been on the market for half a year, has a terminal discount of about 20,000 yuan. The two models selected by
are both 2+3+2, 7-seater space layout, and the most direct experience difference for users must be space. Many models with a wheelbase of less than 2800mm have a 7-seater layout, which is far less efficient than a 5-seater. When it comes to the level of medium and large SUVs, the third-row seats can still be used for carrying people. From the perspective of body size, Ford’s new Explorer has a greater advantage. A car length of more than 5 meters and a wheelbase of more than 3 meters is not a small temptation for consumers, and it has more advantages in market competition.
Appearance design This dimension is different. In general, Angke flag and explorer present two different styles, Angke flag Getting rid of the greasy feeling of the 7-seater SUV in the inherent impression, the harmonious split-type lamp shape of the front face caters to the current mainstream design elements. Although the body size is not small, it is not bulky, which also gives young dads more choices Its reason: In order to avoid making domestic consumers feel too rough and not refined enough, the new explorer incorporates a lot of Chinese characteristic elements in the shape, a starry hexagonal grid, an integrated LED light set, and a hidden D-pillar. , But the overall tough American style continues very well. There is no problem with the design style of the two cars. How to choose it depends on your preference.
Angkeqi uses a front MacPherson independent suspension and a rear five-link independent suspension; the explorer uses a front double ball joint spring reduction Shock strut suspension, rear multi-link independent suspension. simpleIn simple terms, the former pays more attention to comfort, while the latter's handling flexibility will be higher. On the
power system, the Explorer with a larger displacement 2.3T engine stays ahead in terms of parameters. Both have a set of timely four-wheel drive systems. The Explorer is based on the longitudinal four-wheel drive platform with the front and rear suspension. The lower arms are all made of aluminum alloy forged parts, the dynamic performance of the body is better, and the control is more flexible; we are all familiar with the 2.0T+9AT powertrain of Angke Qi, with smoothness as the main orientation, and the author’s actual test As far as driving experience is concerned, Angke Qi is still more than "enough" for power, and fast lane changes and overtaking can also be achieved without sluggishness and no "flesh" feeling. The 2.0T engine is equipped with variable cylinder technology, which will stop the work of two cylinders when cruising at a fixed speed or in some specific scenarios, which has better fuel economy. In general, the explorer can give you a more hearty acceleration experience and a sense of control, while the Angke flag is more comfortable and has higher fuel economy.
After multiple dimensions of comparison, the characteristics of the two models must be well-known to everyone. They focus on different directions and belong to consumers with different needs. Angke Qi is more like a middle-aged The "good medicine" of the crisis, you can enjoy its high practicability at home, while the trendy design will not be ridiculed as middle-aged greasy. At present, Angke Banner still has a terminal discount of about 20,000 yuan in the market. The price-performance ratio is good; the entry barrier of the new explorer has been lowered a lot after being made in China, and it is more like an "all-rounder", suitable for home use, and can satisfy your driving and going wild ideas. At this price, both cars are worthy of recommendation.
