As the automobile market accelerates from incremental competition to stock competition, both the new energy vehicle market and the traditional fuel vehicle market are dominated by the word "volume", and consumers are gradually moving away from brand premiums and paying for products with excellent quality and high quality-price ratio. This is also the main reason why independent brands can break the defense line of joint venture brands and become the first choice of more and more consumers.
How to create products that truly meet the needs of users, independent brands are well versed, especially in the highly competitive compact car market, independent brand models represented by Changan Yida have become the biggest threat to joint venture products such as Lavida and Sylphy. Next, let's take the Changan Yida 2023 Blue Whale NE 15T GDI DCT Pilot Type (Manufacturer's guide price 9.)690,000 yuan), and the higher price of the Volkswagen Lavida 2024 model 15L Automatic Starry Sky Five Million Edition (manufacturer's guide price 13.)090,000 yuan) to see who is the most preferred between the two.
Power PK fully meets the needs of households
Once upon a time, the most criticized powertrain for self-owned brand models was the powertrain. But in fact, this misconception has long been a thing of the past, and after years of development, the technology of self-owned brand engines has made great progress. Just like the new generation of Blue Whale NE1 carried by Changan YidaThe 5T engine innovatively applies advanced technologies such as high geometric compression ratio, deep Miller cycle and high tumbling airway, so that its maximum power is 125kW, the maximum torque is 260N·m, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers under WLTC comprehensive working conditions is 599 liters. It is worth mentioning that the new generation of Blue Whale NE1 carried by YidaThe 5T engine can achieve continuous high torque output in the range of 1,500 to 4,000 rpm, which means that Changan Yida will have excellent acceleration ability, and it is a model with strong power and fuel economy.
More than that, the new generation of Blue Whale 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission matched with the engine is equipped with a number of innovative technologies of intelligent pre-downshift, and the comprehensive transmission efficiency is as high as 96%. Not only is the gear shift smoother, the response speed is faster, and the quality is more reliable, whether it is on the highway or on the rough road, Yida can handle it with ease.
Lavida 2024 model 1The 5L Automatic Starry Sky Five Million Edition uses a 1The 5-liter naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 81 kW and a maximum torque of 141 Nm. Matched with the engine is a 6-speed automatic manual transmission, from the data, Lavida's power performance does not have much advantage, but it can fully meet the daily travel, and this powertrain has also been tested by the market, in terms of maturity and reliability has also been recognized by old users.
Through comparison, it is not difficult to see that Yida, which is also the mainstream model in the family car market, pursues far more than "enough", but by integrating Changan Automobile's innovative technology, it continues to tap more potential of the internal combustion engine, so that the strong power and fuel economy have been double-upgraded. The maximum power of Lavida 81kw + 141N·m maximum torque can also meet the needs of households, with good fuel economy.
Back to the scene Who is better?
In addition to the power system, Changan Yida is more willing to please young consumers with leapfrogging intelligent configuration. In terms of basic equipment, both cars are equipped with practical functions such as navigation, reversing radar, tire pressure monitoring system, auto-hold automatic parking system, and full-speed adaptive cruise control.
It is worth mentioning that Changan Yida Pilot is equipped with a 540° high-definition panoramic image system that Lavida Star 5 million version does not have, even in the face of narrow and complex road conditions, the driver can observe the surrounding body and chassis without dead ends, and novice drivers can also be comfortable on the road. At the same time, Changan Yida also adopts the hidden door handle and electronic gear lever that young people prefer. The automatic induction tailgate can be opened by intelligent induction within a limited range, eliminating the "hands-on" trouble and bringing a more convenient car experience in scenarios such as shopping and carrying items for users.
Changan Yida Pilot is also innovatively equipped with a DMS driver monitoring system, which supports Face ID face recognition function, and the driver and family members can "brush their faces" to use the car. The system can not only realize the non-inductive use of the car, but also can monitor the driver's fatigue driving behavior, and after finding that the driver is in a fatigue driving state, it can actively remind the driver to drive safely through voice, **, etc., greatly improving driving safety and eliminating the potential safety hazards caused by subjective driving in the bud.
It is true that the value of technology lies in benefiting the mass consumers to the greatest extent, and Changan Yida only uses the price of "80,000 yuan" to allow consumers to obtain forward-looking configurations such as 540° high-definition panoramic images and DMS driver monitoring systems. Such a trendy and practical configuration may not be available for joint venture models above 100,000 yuan.
The pursuit of ingenuity and quality are equal
In addition, Changan Yida and Lavida both have very hardcore quality output. Let's take a look at Yida first, thanks to the technical advantages of the Ark architecture, Changan Yida has a more advanced proportion of vehicle design. The vehicle size of Yida is 4770*1840*1440 (1450) mm, and the aspect ratio is only 078, the long wheelbase and the wide body low lying shape show a more perfect body proportion. At the same time, Yida Interior also strictly selects high-grade materials and materials, such as seat quilting technology, wood grain and bright decorative parts in the details, etc., which will improve the texture, grade and atmosphere of the interior to a higher level, and the details all show the ingenuity of the engineers.
The 2765mm ultra-long wheelbase brings the most intuitive experience is the superiority of space, especially the rear space, which can meet the needs of multi-family travel, and with the blessing of high-style zero-pressure sofa seats, whether it is intercity short-distance travel or inter-provincial long-distance driving, it can greatly alleviate the fatigue of driving during the journey. At the same time, with the strict NVH performance control of the whole vehicle, it can bring "double comfort" to the family. In contrast, the interior of Lavida continues to have a strong "public style", and the central control 12-inch large screen adds a lot of scientific and technological atmosphere to the interior, but the screen size is not as large as the size of the Yida central control screen (132 inches).
On the whole, Changan Yida 2023 Blue Whale NE 1The 5T GDI DCT Pilot shows the product quality that the "new strength" of fuel should have, especially in terms of power, intelligence and workmanship that young people care about, and can give users a leapfrog experience. In addition, the guide price of Chang'an Yida manufacturers is only 839-10.790,000 yuan, and at the same time, from December 1st to 31st, car buyers can also enjoy a subsidy of up to 10,000 yuan, and the price is only 7 for a limited timeStarting from 590,000, compared with Lavida, the cost performance is also very obvious, which can be described as full of sincerity. Yida's outstanding product strength further confirms that the car-making technology of Chinese brands has entered a new stage of development - while ending the era of joint venture brand premium, it also allows consumers to see the strength and confidence of Chinese brands.
