[ Chexun Wang reported ] March 2020, a new generation of Chery Automobile Tiggo 7. Compared with the previous model, not only the exterior, interior look, also new powertrain mdash; mdash; 1.6T +7 engine speed wet dual clutch transmission. The new models in the true sense of this, what are the characteristics? With this question, I do a lot of personal experience.
Ruihu 7 is a compact SUV, 4.5 yards long car wheelbase 2.67 m. The first generation model was launched in 2016, power 2.0 and 1.5T, which is a continuously variable automatic transmission. A new generation of Tiggo 7 Reserved 1.5T power, while increasing the power of the PRO 1.6T models. PRO means to enhance my test drive, it is a ldquo; enhanced rdquo; version.
appearance mdash; mdash; the front looks like a midsize SUV
the front part of the new car, the most highlights. Looks very full, like a midsize SUV. One reason is a hexagonal type network, creating a visual tension, followed by the higher position of the machine cover, is very heavy. According to information, the car has blue, red 7 colors.
and tail shape is similar to the previous model, it’s still mellow style. However, tail lamps, tail bar, under the shield, the exhaust pipe, etc., a large change, simply agile kind, concise visual experience.
aspects lights, headlamps ldquo; blind rdquo; into a line, and daytime running lights large sharp contrast. Small width, seems to be more popular style recently, it is said that this will create a more dynamic mdash; mdash; viewed from the side, it is.
In contrast, I think taillights look better. Although there is no through design, but the effect just after lighting, very eye-catching.
Since the D-pillar is covered by the window, the side window together as one whole, the roof to create a suspension, which is popular nowadays. Interestingly, it is under the vehicle window molding between the C-pillar and D-pillar, made a curve processing.
is real double pipe, the outer frame is no longer circular shape of the previous model.
I test drive the car, the tires are mounted horse brand among UC6, the main features of this tire is that the wet performance and low noise. In 7 models Ruihu 9, the low 17-inch tire is fitted, the fitted 18-inch tires, 19-inch high-fitted tire, but the same three kinds of tire tread width, is 225 mm.
at the bottom front, roughly from the forward axle, are covered with the toe board.
It is Maxwell front suspension, a rear suspension is a multi-link independent.
Interior mdash; mdash; materials and workmanship commendable
m car interiors have black, red and black, black three kinds of color, my test drive of the car is black rice mdash; mdash; 2 Gen beige bar, the seat and the same color, to create a little warmth.
There is considerable in the interior portion, with a soft bag, and use double stitching process, looks very delicate.
exquisite sense, in many parts of the car, can feel. For example the outlet, the baffle, and the periphery of the soft-sided package trim, every detail seems under a lot of effort.
with models from the start, with monochromatic light atmosphere. Evening came to the car and unlocked, with lights projected on the ground first, followed by the exciting results after open the door.
disposed mdash; mdash; in the control panel is standard
from the beginning with models, equipped with leather steering wheel, feel very good. As there is no need to imitate the family car racing, the lower the steering wheel to make flat, it is a matter of thing.
multifunction steering wheel of the vehicle is standard. I test drive this car is top with function keys richer mdash; mdash; the right is the telephone, voice and audio controls, cruise control is on the left, the meter display control keys. Wherein the distribution of the set of keys on the left side, need some adaptation. For example, the cruise control set, I tested inconsistent with the vast majority of vehicles; another example, the easiest touch ldquo; rdquo ;, up and down keys to press for the first time, the page will enter the date / time settings, such logic seems odd.
with a top Ruihu 7PRO equipped 12.3 inch full LCD instrument panel mdash; mdash; 2 other models PRO 7-inch LCD meter.
intermediate portion, an upper portion of the liquid crystal panel is 10.25 inches (which is wide standard tiggo 7), the central outlet of function keys, a lower portion of the air conditioning control panel.
In other words, this car top models are equipped, new Tiggo 7 is proud ldquo; three-screen rdquo ;. Among them, the control panel is very rich in content, containing ldquo; lion rdquo; Zhiyun intelligent network linking system, 4G-WiFi, online music, remote control, voice interaction, a variety of popular Zhaopin functions, ranging .
Tiggo 7 PRO models, the 360-degree panoramic images are provided. The video picture clarity is commendable. In addition, whenever the vehicle turns, the control screen will automatically switch a three-dimensional view, although the driver may not watch, but at least at some critical moment, can play a supporting role.
function keys below the outlet, a major role in the control panel. CarSteering wheel and here, there are volume buttons, but I think it is better to dial more convenient. When the manufacturer’s recommendations for future facelift, increase the volume knob in place.
air-conditioning control panel display is great, bring a sense of quality to the vehicle.
and then further intermediate platform, piano effect of the panel, consistent with the air conditioning control panel, very beautiful. In use, however, for people who pay attention, probably need to prepare a cleaning cloth, wipe any time. In terms of functionality, the mobile phone wireless charging platform right position, the rear of a row of function keys, a driving mode, lane assist control function, a panorama image, automatic parking, etc. Descent.
in front of the center armrest cup holder, a little different. It is removable, when required, may be taken away, so that the entire storage box wide open.
In fact, the entire intermediate platform is suspended, there is a following compartment space, and USB interface 12 volt power, also here.
Security mdash; mdash; high with models of active safety more complete
3 paragraph PRO models, has 2 comprising more active safety, such as adaptive cruise control, active braking, lane-keeping. Top models plus a blind-spot monitoring mdash; mdash; assuming that the driver does not concentrate on vehicle deviation, the instrument panel will call the police, and accompanied by an audible warning.
further includes a top models automatic parking, driving technique for relatively poor people, such a configuration is more practical.
space mdash; mdash; rear maximum depth up to 1.8 m 3, paragraph
PRO models are leather seats former chair more heavy support good results. Dimensions, front width 1435 mm, depth of the seat 500 mm, height adjustable driver seat, adjusted by about 60 mm.
Rear width 1400 mm, 500 mm depth of the seat, the seat of the roof to 1020 mm.
an intermediate position slightly raised floor, the projection height of about 30 millimeters. In addition, the discharge outlet and USB port is standard on PRO models in the Tiggo among 7, only the distribution (91,900 yuan) above models is qualified.
the seat is folded segment wide standard. Folding is simple, the wrench pulling back, the seat back is tilted forward.
after folding rear seat, the rear of the maximum depth of 1,800 mm. In other words, even if 1.8 meters tall man, traveling by car, then drove it, you can sleep in the car.
trunk depth of 810 mm, a minimum width of 980 mm, the minimum height of 780 mm, the clear height of the shutter curtain was 440 mm. By volume, it is 475 liters. However, only the trunk lighting, power and no anchor.
the floor, a hidden storage space, the larger space is divided into 4 cells, a lot of clutter can be placed, so as to maintain the neat trunk.
Further down compartments, a spare tire and the tire-changing tool mdash; mdash; this is a small-size spare tire.
Dynamic mdash; mdash; new engines is the maximum point Maximum point
generation Ruihu 7, wherein the power PRO models system, which is a new power: 1.6T + 7 speed wet dual clutch automatic transmission. Look book data mdash; mdash; maximum power of 145 kilowatts, the maximum torque of 290 Nm. Successively calculating car power ratioRates up to 0.077 kilowatts / kg. This is a great achievement, indicating plenty of power, that is, the saying goes horsepower. In contrast, several cars include a specific power: Audi Q3 2.0Tmdash; 0.065 kW / kg, Highlander 2.0Tmdash; 0.062 kW / kg, Ang way X2.0Tmdash; 0.063 kW / kg, the sharp boundary 2.0Tmdash; 0.073 kilowatts /kilogram.
Book numbers are so good, how actual performance?
In this regard, I made three accelerated tests, the results are as follows: 0-100 mph in 8.2 seconds 60-100 mph in 5.6 seconds, 80-120 mph in 6.6 seconds.
visible, the same great results. I do only a few years ago the old data, listed here, are not a direct comparison, but for that you have the impression mdash; mdash; a 2.0-emission cars 60-100 mph in 10.2 seconds, 80-120 km acceleration 10.4 seconds; a section 3.6T coupe 60-100 mph in 3.4 seconds, 80-120 mph in 2.9 seconds.
as a family car, too much emphasis on acceleration, in fact, not much value. Taiwan 1.6T engine performance but, really unexpected. Some people complain PRO model is priced too high, in fact, entry-PRO is 118,900 yuan, more than Tiggo 1.5T 7 extra high with 9,000 yuan in the same premise that other configurations, this 9000 dollars in exchange for outstanding performance power systems, in addition to more than a panoramic image. I think, very cost-effective. Unless you do not want to spend money from the start, considering only the low allocation models Tiggo 7.
This sentence can also be the other way round mdash; mdash; consider its Tiggo high with 7, it is better to spend 9000 yuan, directly on the Tiggo 7PRO.
In fact, not only is to force the engine, transmission is also great. This wet dual clutch transmission, the reliability is higher than the dry dual clutch. Whether it is a conventional throttle driving style,Or to ldquo; violence rdquo; ruthless tread pattern, which have good performance mdash; mdash; very actively with you, the gear transferred to the most appropriate location. Did not find unexpected, I did not feel frustrated. Engine speed control well.
As shown above, the speed 80km mdash; mdash; engine speed 1300 rev / min, speed of 100 km mdash; mdash; rotational speed 1700 rev / min speed 120km mdash; mdash; rotational speed 2000 rev / min. Fuel consumption is achieved, preferably when the road, roughly 7.7 liters, approximately 9.5 liters heavy traffic. As for the Ministry of Industry and combined fuel consumption is 6.9 liters.
car noise, the idle 44 db, 64 db speed of 80km per hour 100 km 67 db, 69 db 120km per hour. This result is not great, but it can also mdash; mdash; I do have a forest’s test results: idling 43 db, 80km 62 db, 67 db 100 km, 120km 68 db.
due to the epidemic, many places with a guard, so the test drive could not be more projects. Only regular road driving, the steering and suspension damping feedback, are just right. If blocked, allowing the driver to guess which is which brand of car, I believe that many people probably could not answer correctly. I want to say is that the car’s chassis handled very well, driving in a kind of a sense of calm, very confident.
In general, the new generation Tiggo 7PRO give me the feeling that three new: New look, new interior, new power.
I think, though Tiggo 7 is not perfect, but, in general, this is a bright spot in a lot of cars, do not lose many similar joint venture vehicle. I remember previously reported, its development cycle up to four years. The estimated cost is also huge sum of money. Thus, as long as the sink in the heart, under the foot work, you can make a good car.
