Since the Volvo brand was taken over by Geely, this Nordic car manufacturer seems to be reborn. Its product strength and top-level vehicle safety have also been recognized by more and more consumers. However, a product that is positioned as a medium and large car like the S60 sells for more than 300,000 yuan. At such a price, its competitiveness is still difficult to compare with the "ABB" three giants.
also seems to have seen an opportunity. The Geely brand also officially announced its own A-class sedan product at this year's Beijing Auto Show, which is Geely Xingrui. And just this month, the new car also ushered in the official listing. It has to be said that as the first car product under the CMA platform, Xingrui can really find a lot of Volvo S60 shadows.
, for example, this is a very Volvo-like front face shape. There are no flashy embellishments and exaggerated muscle lines. The most commendable part is the newly built shield-shaped grille. However, although simple, Geely’s exquisite creation is not shoddy: every built-in vertical grille is decorated with chrome trim. From here, you can see that Geely’s design idea for this front face is Concise but not simple.
In terms of overall styling, the Volvo flavor on Xingrui can be said to be heavier, especially the contours of the side parts, which can be said to be removed from the Volvo S60. Of course, Xingrui’s side design is also commendable. Whether it is from the rearview mirror to the waistline at the rear of the car, or the rear shape with a hint of hatchback, it can make people have a little imagination about performance. . The super-long wheelbase of 2800mm is definitely a unique length in the A-class sedan, which also makes the overall ratio of Xingrui appear to be quite slender, and this is exactly what we usually get from Volvo. When
enters the car, the smell of Xingrui emerges with the interior. The two-tone interior that combines yacht blue and pure white looks quite textured, and it also incorporates slush plastic materials and leather wrap. In addition, the interior also uses a brushed aluminum veneer with dark lines, and the white leather material on the door also has a special texture design. This design language seems to be quite different from our previous imagination of the Geely brand. , Is also enough to show Geely's leaps and bounds in aesthetics. Z1z
has a sense of elegance in the interior, and Xingrui is unambiguous in terms of technology and comfort. The 12.3-inch floating touch screen is equipped with Geely's newly developed GKUI car-machine system, which not only supports the Internet of Vehicles, but also supports intelligent voice recognition and the OTA upgrade function of the vehicle. The two-color seat echoes the overall interior decoration in terms of color matching. After personal experience, this set of seats not only has good support, but also has a good support design. It also supports three-level adjustment and heating and ventilation functions. It can be said to do enough homework for the owner's riding experience. The length of
4785mm makes Xingrui look like an A-class car at all, and from the ride experience in the rear row, it can be said to be precise: this is really not an A-class car. Passengers with a height of 1.85 meters sitting in the back row can get four-finger head space and more than one-and-a-half punches in the knee space. This space shows that the only rival in the same class that can compete is Guangqi Honda’s Lingpai. The A-class car camp is completely leapfrog. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a B-class car. Z1z
also leapfrogged the power level of Xingrui. The Drive-E 2.0T engine technology comes from Volvo. With a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox, it can accelerate from 100 kilometers to 7.9 seconds, which is quite rare in the same level of models. . With a maximum horsepower of 190 horsepower and a peak torque of 300N·m, the book figures are also true for 2.0T engines of other luxury brands.
In terms of product strength, this Geely Xingrui can be called a "small S60" with an A-class wheelbase. In terms of space and power, it has an overwhelming advantage compared to models of the same level. In terms of price range, the price of S60 is almost cut in half. It is no wonder that Geely regards Xingrui as the pioneering work of CMA platform. At present, Xingrui is waiting to be tested by the market.
