Cars have occupied a lot of market share in the family car market in the past, but now they are replacing cars as family cars and becoming another main force in the family car market, especially plug-in hybrids, which have neither battery life anxiety nor the advantages of new energy vehicles. For example, the newly listed GAC Trumpchi E8 is a more representative model. The GAC Trumpchi E8 held a delivery party on the Bund in Shanghai on December 9, and the new cars will be delivered to the owners one after another. The GAC Trumpchi E8 has been listed at the Guangzhou Auto Show. The new car has launched 2 models, priced at 209,800 yuan and 229,800 yuan respectively. Is this model worth buying?
Appearance: More emphasis on simplicity and technology
First of all, review the appearance design, GAC Trumpchi E8 compared to GAC Trumpchi models, the overall style has been greatly changed, first of all, the front face has a new design, on the premise of maintaining the past atmosphere, adding more avant-garde and rich in technology elements. The color scheme has also been considered, a large number of primary color retention practices, combined with the appropriate amount of chrome decoration, still look more atmospheric.
The middle net has a lattice design feature, the semi-closed design looks relatively simple, there is no real border, so that the front face has an integrated visual effect. The headlights can be called a split design, composed of the upper half of the belt and the lighting group below. The penetrating light strip connects the car logo and extends to both sides of the fender, and the headlights below are linked with it to form a combination of up and down. The effect after lighting is still quite amazing.
The side is the orthodox shape, the overall proportion is not much to say, the details of the chrome decoration of the roof, and the extension of the small spoiler, in addition to the 18-inch wheel shape is also more sporty.
The tail has a simple design similar to the front face, and the through-type tail light shape is also relatively slender. It is matched with red and black. The internal red luminous part has two styles, the upper part is a lattice design, and the lower part is a long light strip. The overall combination is still good.
Interior: More home style
The interior design continues the style of GAC Trumpchi. The central control uses a symmetrical design, with basically no complex design. The central control is made up of wood-grain-effect trim panels and soft materials to create a home flavor. The LCD instrument panel is embedded in the center console, and the integrity of this part is still relatively strong.
The car machine is familiar to GAC Trumpchi. Basically, the functions of the vehicle are operated through this screen, and the visual effect of the screen is still very good. Electronic gear is now a more mainstream configuration. Compared with the GAC Trumpchi models in the fuel era, the horizontal space is stretched.
The second row is undoubtedly the core of the GAC Trumpchi E8. The two independent seats have a considerable adjustment range, and the configuration level is also relatively high. Due to the long adjustable distance between the front and rear rows, the rear row space can also be guaranteed.
Power and configuration: top matching is more worth choosing?
In terms of power, the GAC Trumpchi E8 is equipped with a 2.0L plug-in hybrid system, with a maximum engine power of 103kW and a thermal efficiency of 42.1%. The WLTC comprehensive fuel consumption is 1.13L/100km, and it has a 150km CLTC pure electric cruising range. In addition, it is equipped with a planetary gear series-parallel two-speed DHT, which effectively improves the rear power performance.
The configuration of GAC Trumpchi E8 is still relatively simple. There are only two models, and the price difference between the two is 20,000 yuan. As can be seen from the configuration table, the configuration gap between the two cars is still very obvious, and the value exceeds the price difference of 20,000 yuan. Compared with the Pro version, the Max version has significantly improved both the intelligent configuration and the comfort configuration. Equipped with L2-level auxiliary driving, the active safety configuration is also richer; the configuration of the second row has opened a level.
summary
Overall, the GAC Trumpchi E8, as a plug-in hybrid, can better meet the needs of consumers at this stage, especially for family users who need a car for multiple purposes. The functionality of the E8 is more prominent, and the policy is more friendly for purchase-restricted cities. In terms of configuration, as mentioned above, it is directly recommended to choose the Max version. Even if the budget is tight, the missing configuration of the Pro version cannot make up for the price difference, and it is not recommended to choose. The price of the GAC Trumpchi E8 is still relatively lethal. 200,000 the early price, the configuration is close to some luxury attributes. In addition, the PHEV is also an advantage. It is a new energy model suitable for family use.
