Today’s 100,000-150,000 yuan SUV market is undoubtedly the world of independent brands. Haval H series, BYD Song series and Changan CS75 family are all representative of the explosion models. These local SUVs are no matter in appearance design, interior configuration, and technology. In terms of intelligence or power control, both understand the preferences of Chinese consumers and naturally occupy the top spot in the sales list for a long time.
These head brands also have an amazing understanding of the pulse of the market. Not long ago, the third-generation Haval H6 based on the new lemon platform was launched on the market. Changan CS75 PLUS has recently been upgraded to 2021, and BYD has launched a The new model Song PLUS (fuel version). For consumers, there may not be a perfect model, but there are better choices. So, three popular models-Song PLUS/Haval H6/Changan CS75 PLUS, who will be the perfect decision?
01
Appearance:
design, is the brand's insight into the future
is the first level of appearance, although the appearance is different, but the three models adhere to the positive research and development, and the design of the model has a certain degree of grasp of the target user group Preferences. The
third-generation Haval H6 has increased the body length and wheelbase to a certain extent. At the same time, the front face center grille and headlights have been adjusted. On the whole, however, the appearance design style of this generation of Haval H6 has not been significantly changed or adjusted. It still continues the style of Haval car series, and the design freshness is slightly lacking.
Changan CS75 PLUS is relatively radical in design. This model has an advanced design concept when it is launched. The whole car is based on the Changan Yuyue design concept, and is equipped with a futuristic mecha-like front face and red line decoration. The personality and sportiness are more prominent, creating a good youth Feeling and aggressive.
Compared with the previous two products, the design of Song PLUS is more fashionable and futuristic. BYD invited three international masters, former Audi design director Iger, former Ferrari exterior director Lopez, and former Mercedes-Benz interior design director Michelle, to form a luxurious group, combining Chinese elements with international vision, and "Dragon Soul" aesthetics The concept, combining the "Dragon Face" classic and the enterprising spirit of the "urban pioneer", creates a new trend of independent SUV design.
The Dragon Face classic aesthetic gene of BYD family has been further evolved on Song PLUS. The new car incorporates Chinese armor elements into the front grille design, forming a unique armor lattice shape, which has great visual impact. On the side of the body, the new car is inspired by the posture of the dragon flying in the sky, forming a dragon sprint waistline, which runs through the entire body, bringing an extremely dynamic performance.
In terms of details, Song PLUS uses crystal diamond longan LED headlights, 777 electric blue LED dragon claw daytime running lights, skyline LED high-position brake lights and through-type dragon claw trail running water rear taillights, etc., with ingenious design. The whole vehicle design concept echoes and is highly recognizable. BYD also provides 20-inch aluminum alloy super-sensing sports wheels and red calipers on high-end models, which are extremely rare in the same class, making the overall image of Song PLUS both the dynamics of an SUV and the elegance of a sedan. The body dimensions of
Song PLUS are 4705 × 1890 × 1680 (mm), and the wheelbase is 2765 mm. The new wide-body and low-profile design brings a stretch of fluid lines of the body, presenting an extremely elegant and imposing body. With a posture, it became China's first wide-body trendy SUV.
02
interior:
details determine the texture, every effort can be felt
is different from the appearance that depends on the first impression to create a sense of impact, the interior mainly relies on details to impress consumers. As the main models in the SUV market of 100,000 to 150,000 yuan, these three models are carefully designed in terms of interior design and each have their own styles.
The new Haval H6 advocates simplicity and fashion in the interior style, but still conveys a strong sense of freshness through changes in details. Through the clever color contrast design, a good visual impression is created, and the overall appearance is calm and textured.
is consistent with the appearance. The interior design of Changan CS75 PLUS is still young, and the interior is more aggressive, and even sacrifices in terms of comfort in order to highlight the sense of movement. For example, in order to give good posture restraints to the occupants of the car during relatively intense driving, the CS75 PLUS seat setting is quite sporty, but the comfort will be impaired during daily transportation. This point
has been handled very well in Song PLUS. Through detailed processing of seat materials and fillings-such as adding soft foam materials to the seats, designing a maximum backrest tilt angle of 28 degrees for the rear passengers, etc., Song PLUS brings drivers and passengers Leapfrog luxury feeling.
Overall, Song PLUS has a clear design idea in the interior design: based on the ancient Chinese architectural style, the interior texture of the car is presented through the multi-layer suspension design. The sense of suspension extends from the center control panel to both sides, and the suspension concept is reflected in the suspension steering wheel, delicate storage space, and organ-like suspension air outlets, which creates a sense of luxury while also creating a more futuristic atmosphere, realizing aesthetic design , The perfect integration of engineering manufacturing and functional practicability.
It is worth mentioning that Song PLUS also uses the world's first mass-produced gradual interior. Through the development of a new process, the natural gradual transition between ink immersion brown and basalt black is presented in an integrated manner, giving a feeling of light and shadow flowing during driving, and the visual effect is amazing.
03
Configuration:
understands the consumer's high-tech, more pleasing
10-15 million yuan SUV user favorite configuration, can be found on the three models, but in the match, you can see the sincerity of Song PLUS.
Haval H6 has been improved in terms of comfort, and the more obvious improvement lies in the level of car and machine system. The central large screen of the new Haval H6 has a built-in car networking system based on the Android kernel and supports OTA over-the-air upgrades. It also has excellent performance in intelligent driving assistance, but it is not as good as Song PLUS in terms of grasping the preferences of young users.
Changan CS75 PLUS performs weaker than the other two models at the vehicle and machine system level. This system does not support conventional CarPlay and CarLife functions, and supports fewer applications than the other two models. Compared with
, the third-generation DiLink intelligent network connection system of the Song PLUS series can completely liberate the user from the mobile phone. With the onboard 4G traffic and cloud services, as well as the cloud service App intelligent remote driving, intelligent voice control system and other functions, the interactive experience of using the car can better meet the preferences of young people. The greater advantage of
Song PLUS is that it decentralizes many smart configurations, including the third-generation DiLink intelligent network connection system; car microphone; mobile phone NFC car key; vehicle OTA remote upgrade, etc. All are standard for the whole system. In contrast, Haval H6, which also focuses on intelligence, puts more high-tech configurations on mid-to-high-end models.

Driving control:
is the perfect itinerary with both comfort and dynamics.
At the driving level, because the three models have different driving orientations, their respective focuses are also different. Among them, the Changan CS75 PLUS also provides 1.5T/2.0T power versions. Consumers have more options, but the 1.5T models are still more cost-effective. At the same time, it is also equipped with the only hydraulic AT transmission among the three cars, but the actual driving experience does not have many surprises.
Based on the forward-researched lemon architecture, the third-generation Haval H6 has a certain degree of improvement in driving texture. In the driving process, the overall tone of the Haval H6 tends to be smooth, retaining a fairly light and comfortable hand feel, but there is no obvious power explosion point. The front McPherson independent suspension and rear multi-link independent suspension chassis provided by BYD Song PLUS are consistent with the new Haval H6. Both cars tend to provide a smoother driving experience. But Song PLUS is made by chassis expert HanS. Kirk personally participated in the adjustment, and the feedback of the chassis has a texture that is more inclined to German luxury cars. While ensuring a comfortable daily travel experience, it also makes driving more fun.
Song PLUS is equipped with Snapdragon's new 1.5TI high-power engine + new 7-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox as standard. The engine thermal efficiency reaches 38%, the transmission efficiency reaches 95%, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is reduced by 15%. Through the three power modes of ECO/NORMAL/SPORT, Song PLUS allows users to obtain satisfactory feedback in different driving styles. The adjustment of the dual-clutch gearbox takes more into account the user’s driving scene in low-to-medium-speed road conditions. It not only provides a smooth shifting and driving experience comparable to a CVT, but also ensures excellent dynamic response, making daily driving even better. Running clouds and flowing water.
In addition, through the joint development of power system NVH with the world's top AVL company, Song PLUS's noise control performance has surpassed similar joint venture products. Even when driving at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour, the front and rear passengers can still talk freely.
Question summary
Nowadays, car companies like to use PLUS to highlight the upgrade of models, but most of them are reflected in the increase in size and a small amount of configuration. But Song PLUS uses four English words to explain the evolution of the model: Popular (fashion), Luxury (new luxury), Upgraded (advanced), Sense (with sense).
can see that Song PLUS is not just a model aimed at the moment, it also represents BYD's understanding of the 100,000-150,000 SUV market segment. In the future, Song PLUS may be the model that can most challenge the dominance of Haval H6 in this market segment.
