With the harvest of the business, it is time for them to buy a luxury brand medium and large SUV, we bring three luxury brand medium and large SUVs today, pragmatic and not low-key, you can go in and out of high-end banquets and take the whole family out of the wilderness. They are: Volvo XC90, BMW X5L and Audi Q7, from the brand to the heritage, from the product power to the **, these three cars will be the best choice for quality and price ratio.
Volvo XC90
Official guide price: 63890,000-78190,000 yuan
Volvo XC90 is a medium and large SUV from Northern Europe, and it is also Volvo's flagship SUV, and many of Volvo's top technologies appear in this car. In addition to the petrol variant, the XC90 is also available in a plug-in hybrid variant, which is available in 2The combination of 0T + motor can meet more consumers who have a demand for power.
In terms of appearance, the Volvo XC90 has a unique design style in this class, which is also closely related to the brand tonality. At present, the body lines of large SUVs in many luxury brands on the market are becoming softer and softer, such as this generation of Mercedes-Benz GLE and Audi Q7, which are undeniably beautiful, but seem to lack the aura that this level of models should have. The Volvo XC90 is different, with muscular body lines and sharp front and rear light clusters, which gives it a very strong feeling.
From the side, the stretched D-pillar and the waistline that runs through the front and rear make this car appear quite slender, the vehicle size of the XC90 is 4953 1958 1776mm, and the wheelbase reaches 2984mm, if you look at the data, in fact, Volvo XC90 is not particularly large in the same class, but thanks to the styling design of the front and side of the vehicle, the car looks very large visually.
At the rear of the vehicle, the XC90's taillight cluster is a very recognizable element at the tail, although the XC90 is the earliest of these cars to be listed, but the design is still classic and keeps up with the trend, and the shape of "tall people and big horses" has captured the hearts of many consumers.
The interior part also adheres to the characteristics of Nordic design, there are no superfluous decorative elements, the relatively simple wood grain with the excellent feel of the leather has created a good luxury atmosphere, consumers at this level do not care so much about the sense of science and technology, the experience of the intelligent cockpit, Volvo XC90, the vertical central control screen can already meet the daily needs.
However, in view of the current consumer demand for intelligence, Volvo XC90 has built-in AutoNavi map, Huawei smart assistant, Tencent Aiquting, etc., and there are more applications available in Huawei applications**, and you can also choose to use fast applications to expand car applications.
The crystal gear lever is unique to the high-end model, which significantly improves the sense of luxury and refinement in the car. At first glance, the interior of the Volvo XC90 is devoid of bells and whistles, but it enhances the quality of the interior with excellent materials and reasonable ergonomics. For example, the tilt angle of the screen, the optimization of the native Android system, and the easy-to-use voice system all make it easier for the driver to operate.
In terms of interior materials, Volvo XC90 also prefers to use safe and environmentally friendly interior materials, whether it is wood grain trim, metal chrome parts or fabric fibers, the production and selection of odor volatilization. Low formaldehyde, low heavy metals, low allergens, and Volvo AAC dual-effect enhanced air purification system are the best advantages of the Volvo XC90. There is no odor in the car, which is even more important for families with children.
Safety has always been the label of the Volvo brand, and as Volvo's flagship SUV model, Volvo XC90 is definitely unsparing no effort in terms of safety: the super cage body and a larger proportion of boron steel in the body structure, with the easy-to-use City Safety system and Pilot Assist, Volvo XC90 has achieved high specifications and equal treatment in active and passive safety.
In terms of power, the Volvo XC90 is equipped with a 20T engine + 48V hybrid system, the engine is divided into two versions, high and low power, and the parameters of the low-power turbocharged engine are 184kW 350NmThe parameters of the high-power mechanical + turbo twin-supercharged engine are 220kw 420N·m, and the parameters of the high-power version can even be compared with part 3The 0t engine is comparable.
In addition, with the addition of the 48V hybrid system, the main improvements are the power response at the beginning and the power line connection in the middle of the gearbox shift, and the overall power output is smoother. Subjectively speaking, the XC90 is a car that accelerates briskly, 2The power reserve of the 0t high-power engine is sufficient, and the same level of 2The 0T model is quite smooth to drive in comparison.
Recommended model: Volvo XC90 B6 Zhiya Luxury Edition 7-seater
Official price: 78190,000 yuan
Recommended reason: As the top version of the XC90 series, the most important thing for the B6 Zhiya luxury version is to add air suspension, which is very obvious for the improvement of driving quality. This version also comes with more unique luxury features, such as a Bowers & Wilkins 19-speaker sound system, ambient lighting, and HUD functions. Whether it is the driving quality or the audio-visual experience, this version has a lot of improvements in luxury experience compared to other versions. In the current situation of large market terminal discounts, the price of this top-of-the-line version of the naked car has entered less than 650,000 yuan, and this quality-price ratio is indeed unique.
Domestically produced BMW X5
Official guide price: 615-800,000 yuan
At the 2023 Chengdu Auto Show, the mid-term facelift domestic BMW X5 was officially unveiled and launched, with a ** range of 6150,000-800,000 yuan. **The domestically produced BMW X5 is mainly adjusted for the interior and exterior design, functional configuration and power system, and the overall changes including pricing are not much different from the old model.
In terms of appearance, there is not much difference between the domestic BMW X5 and the imported version, and the eye-catching kidney grille is more recognizable in appearance, and after the mid-term facelift, the domestic X5 is on par with the overseas version of the model in terms of styling, and the shape of the front surround and the shape of the lamp group have been changed. The front surround presents a "double fang" shape, and a new matte gray color scheme has been added.
The light clusters are also more elongated, while the daytime running lights have been replaced with sharper outer folds, and the overall change in the front face is more rugged and aggressive.
In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the 2023 domestic BMW X5 are 5060 2004 1776mm, the wheelbase is still 3105mm, and the measurement parameters are basically unchanged compared with the 2022 model. The length of the car at more than 5m and the wheelbase of more than 3m do give it a certain advantage in terms of space, after all, the car is only available in a five-seater version.
The sides and rear of the body also inherit BMW's usual sporty style, although it is a mid-to-large SUV, but the varied side lines and muscular tail convey a strong sporty atmosphere. The model we photographed this time is the XDRIVE40LI Premium M Sport Night Edition, so the whole vehicle has a lot of blackened elements, such as side luggage racks, taillight clusters, etc. The change in the rear is also the most noticeable in the style of the tail light cluster.
* The changes in the interior of the model will be much more obvious than the appearance, **The interior of the BMW X5 follows the design concept of the interior of the X7 model, with a large-size dual screen, **family-style electronic shift mechanism, and the previous generation of models have formed a completely different style.
The full LCD instrument panel size is 123 inches, central control multi** screen size is 149 inches. Compared with the car machine system on the new energy vehicle, I personally think that the car machine system on the BMW X5 is simpler and more convenient to use, but the level of functional configuration is relatively average, and the expandability of the function is worth optimizing. Directly in front of the co-pilot has the same atmosphere light strip as the X7 model, which looks more advanced than the previous model, but the name displayed by the light strip naturally becomes X5.
However, it should be noted here that the crystal gear lever of the previous model's much-received model was canceled on the **, and a delicate and small gear lever was used instead, which seems to be a bit out of place on the huge X5.
*The X5 has plenty of space, which is why many people choose it, with a wheelbase of more than 3100mm and a five-seat layout that makes the rear space more exaggerated, and the seats are wide and thick, but perhaps because I am relatively thin, the wings on both sides of the front seats do not give a strong sense of wrapping. In addition, there are still a considerable number of consumers at this level who need 7-seat models, which is also a pity for the domestic BMW X5.
* BMW X5 used 20t and 3The 0T engine is different from the previous model, **BMW X5 uses 2The 0T engine has a maximum power of 190 kW (258 PS) and a maximum torque of 400 Nm, which is 10 kW (13 PS) higher than the previous model, and a 48V mild hybrid system is also added. And 3 .The maximum power of the 0T engine is 280kW (381PS) and the maximum torque is 520Nm, which is 35kW (48PS) and 70Nm higher than the previous model, which is 3 of the BMW X5The acceleration time of the 0T model to 100 km/h is 5 seconds.
Recommended model: XDRIVE30LI Premium M Sport Midnight Edition
Official selling price: 7290,000 yuan
Judging from the current ** ** BMW X5 due to its short time on the market, there is basically no terminal discount, and the version provided is not much, but it supports quite a lot of project options. Overall, I still recommend 20t high-profile version, since 2The basic configuration of the low-end model of 0T is too small, and at the same time, practical configurations such as fully adaptive cruise and air suspension cannot be optional.
And 20t high configuration compared to 30t entry model is 8 cheaper40,000 yuan, but there is no obvious gap in the configuration, so friends with sufficient budgets are on 3The 0t version is fine, but for most people, 2The 0T high-end configuration is the Xdrive30LI Premium M Sport Night Edition, which is the most cost-effective version. But I still have to say that the basic configuration given by the BMW X5 is still too simple compared to the other two cars.
Audi Q7
Official guide price: 6328-80.480,000 yuan
This generation of the Audi Q7 was launched in 2016 and has now entered the end of its life cycle, so the overall exterior and interior design will look old-fashioned, but the huge discount margin can still attract some consumers. In terms of appearance, the sense of youthful luxury has been enhanced after the upper body of the family-style design, but the sense of technology has weakened, and the overall shape is not as flamboyant as the BMW X5. Although it doesn't look big visually, the size of the Audi Q7 has also reached the level of 5067 1970 1740mm - the size is about the same as the BMW X5, but the rounded lines of the whole vehicle make the visual Audi Q7 look "fat" a lot.
In terms of appearance, the overall lines of the Audi Q7 are relatively soft, with a large grille and the S Line exterior package being the most conspicuous part of the front face, and the model we photographed is the 55 TFSI Quattro S Line Ice and Snow Sports Edition, which is also the sportiest version. A lot of blackened elements combined with red brake calipers make this car quite imposing. However, this generation of Audi Q7 is not very recognizable, and the family design is somewhat indistinguishable from the Q5 after the upper body, which is also a problem faced by many luxury brand models.
On the side of the body, the straight waistline is a common design for medium and large SUVs, the body length of 5067mm shows that the vehicle is very slender, similar to the front face, and there are a lot of blackened decorative parts on the side, if it is the ordinary version, it is silver, older consumers will prefer it, the door handle is the same color as the body, and the maximum size of the five-spoke sports rim is 21-inch wheels.
The rear of the car has a very distinct sense of hierarchy, horizontal and vertical has always been Audi's style, the regular version of the through-chrome trim has changed to black trim, and the silver lower guard plate is also painted in black, and the red and black color scheme is still quite sporty. The large lower skid reveals a hint of off-road vibe, and even the lowest-spec models are equipped with a headlight wash function, which also emphasizes the off-road nature of the Audi Q7.
Coming to the car, the interior of Audi Q7 is a little old-fashioned compared with the other three models, although there is actually nothing picky about the material, but the interior and appearance of this generation of Audi Q7 face the same problem: it is not obvious to distinguish from low-level models, and the triple screen has been applied to most models of Audi, including the same is true for the through-type air conditioning outlet, and at the same time, the choice of color and trim plate is not very good at first sight to impress consumers, which is also the main problem faced by Audi Q7 at present.

In terms of power, the Audi Q7 is the same as the BMW X5 and has 20t and 3A 0T engine is optional, with 45TFSI and 55TFSI tail markings, and both engines are mated to an 8AT gearbox. Taking into account the price, it is still 2Sales of 0T models are good. Audi Q7 this 2The 0T engine has a maximum power of 182kW, which is the same as that of the BMW X5, but the torque is slightly lower, with a peak torque of 370Nm. In standard and sport mode, the powertrain has a very different character, and the 8AT from the ZF is quite mature to match the engine. The Audi Q7 may not surprise you in terms of power, but the driving experience is nothing fussy.
Recommended model: 55 TFSI Quattro S Line Ice & Snow Sport
Official selling price: 75580,000 yuan
The main reason for recommending this version is that the large terminal discount makes the overall price of Audi Q7 more affordable, and the market discount of more than 100,000 yuan is of course 30t models will be more cost-effective, and the ice and snow sports version does not look so outdated in appearance, because this version is the second top configuration, the basic configuration is already very complete, so on the whole, this version is the most cost-effective.
Full text summary:The terminal price of the three luxury brands recommended today is basically concentrated between 600,000-700,000 yuan, taking into account the purchase tax and some options, relatively speaking, Volvo XC90 will be more cost-effective. We don't compare these models, because the products at this price point actually have their own strengths, some are famous for luxury configurations, some compete for the market for health and safety, and at the same time, the brand tonality and characteristics have screened out many consumers. As the brand's flagship or sub-flagship SUV, I believe that each of these three cars also has its own fans, so which of these three cars do you like the most?Welcome to leave a message in the comment area to discuss.
