Now plug-in hybrid cars are becoming the mainstream choice of the family car market, especially those who don't want to buy a beggar version of the product that has nothing, but the budget is only 10,000 yuan, it is really good to choose a domestic new energy car. In such a ** range, BYD Qin PLUS DM-i is undoubtedly one of the best choices, and recently there is Chery Fengyun A8 in this market segment, and how to choose one of these two models? We take 12The 580,000 yuan Qin PLUS Champion Edition DM-i 120km leading type (hereinafter referred to as the Qin Plus.)The 990,000 yuan 2024 Fengyun A8 127 Chafeng Edition (hereinafter referred to as Fengyun A8) is an example to see which of them is more worth buying.
From the design point of view, both cars are relatively attractive, and both have a large open grille with continuous chrome trim at the front and a continuous taillight strip at the rear. But relatively speaking, Fengyun A8 has a more aggressive sports effect by embedding the front and rear deflector grooves and taillights; The Qin Plus maintains a more durable clean line and functional area, and the slightly curved waistline looks more dynamic.
In terms of size, the Fengyun A8 has a length, width and height of 4780 1843 1487mm and a wheelbase of 2790mm, while the Qin Plus has 4765 1837 1495mm and a wheelbase of 2718mm. It can be seen that both cars have reached the same high standard, but Fengyun A8 is the real A+ level, except for the body height, the rest of the data can compete with the Volkswagen Suteng, and create a larger rear row depth than the Qin Plus.
From the interior, the Fengyun A8 maintains a sense of simplicity, 10The 25-inch dual LCD screens complete the floating conjoined body, the air conditioning has through-through trim, and the air conditioning system is operated by a small touch screen, and although it has faux leather covered seats, the D-shaped steering wheel is made of plastic. In addition, the version does not offer a sunroof, which would be a bit of a pity.
Qin plus is obviously more individual, 10The 1-inch rotating large screen is paired with 8The 8-inch LCD instrument cluster has a large lacquered panel paired with a slender chrome strip and upper and lower upholstery packages, while the climate control is placed on both sides of the electronic gear knob, and the parking sensor can also be controlled here. The three-spoke steering wheel is covered in the same leather as the seats, and the roof also has an electric sunroof.
From the point of view of the car machine, Fengyun A8 did not get the complete Lion Zhiyun Lion 50, but its car machine has supported dual-area voice interaction, and retains the CarPlay Hicar mobile phone interconnection to achieve the user's diversified car habits; The Qin PLUS is equipped with Dilink, the voice can cover the sunroof adjustment, and supports OTA** upgrade, and its mobile phone APP control range and functions are also richer, and because both models can support multi-ecological applications, they also have on-board KTV functions.
In terms of other configurations, both cars support dual-zone air conditioning with rear exhaust air outlets, electrically adjustable exterior mirrors, remote control key door systems, etc., driving also comes with hill assist, reversing image, cruise control, etc., and Fengyun A8The overall configuration is indeed slightly weaker, although it supports Gaode navigation and steep hill descent, but Qin PLUS has more remote control parking assistance, snow driving mode, Bluetooth smart key and dual-row head air curtains, etc. In addition, the front seats of the Qin plus are sporty, and the rear seats can be reclined proportionally, and the comfort performance and functionality are also more prominent.
In terms of power, the Fengyun A8 is equipped with Chery's self-developed Kunpeng super hybrid C-DM system, which is based on a Chery Acteco 1The 5TGDI hybrid engine, matched with a DHT gearbox, and a single motor, can achieve a comprehensive system power of 265kW and a comprehensive system torque of 530N·m, which can be used at 7Complete 000 acceleration within 6 seconds; The same BYD lithium iron phosphate battery pack brought by Fodi Power can achieve a WLTC pure electric range of 106km, and the fuel consumption of the feed is 42l/100km。
Qin PLUS is equipped with BYD's self-developed DM-i super hybrid system, Xiaoyun-plug-hybrid-1The 5L dedicated engine has a whopping 4304% thermal efficiency, using a simpler and smoother e-CVT electronic continuously variable speed mechanism, in which, the maximum power of the motor is 145kW, the maximum torque is 325N·m, and the whole system can be 7Zero acceleration within 3 seconds; The lithium iron phosphate blade battery can provide 101km of WLTC pure electric range, and the fuel consumption is 46L 100km, judging from the data, it seems to be weaker than Fengyun A8, and the comprehensive range of 1245km is indeed shorter than that of competitors at 1400km. However, in the case that the motor power and engine are weaker than the Fengyun A8, its overall performance is more prominent, and we have reason to believe that the Xiaoyun plug-in hybrid special engine and blade battery developed by the pair will have higher comprehensive stability.
Write at the end
The difference between the two models we see today is only 4,000 yuan, but as we can see, Fengyun A8 has a better space performance, and it also highlights its high strength in terms of energy saving; Although Qin PLUS is slightly inferior in terms of power efficiency, but the performance will be a city for it, and in terms of configuration, it can be richer than the more expensive Fengyun A8, which will also allow Qin PLUS DM-i to continue to consolidate its "king of cost performance" title, if you don't care about the small space difference and the difference in fuel consumption of a few tenths of a liter, Qin PLUS DM-i will still be a better new energy family car option.
