As an independent car company that has laid out the MPV market earlier in China, SAIC Maxus has brought us a variety of MPVs and actively laid out various car segments. Unfortunately, for many years, it has lacked a popular model to help it make a name for itself, and many of its models are in obscurity, such as the Maxus G70, a mid-size MPV. Launched in December 2023, it appeared in obscurity, and compared to the fanfare of other new models, the Maxus G70 is a bit low-key. That's not a good thing for a new model to look forward to, but it's not too late to find out.
As a traditional fuel vehicle, the Maxus G70 adopts the latest design language of the family, which belongs to the category of fashion personality. The large trapezoidal front grille occupies the visual centre of gravity of the front of the car, while the blackened mesh surface is embellished with decorative patterns of various sizes. From top to bottom, it gradually becomes dense and dispersed, forming a gradient visual effect. The headlights are in the current trend of split design, with a slender daytime running light strip at the top that connects the vertical light clusters on both sides to follow the contours of the hood. A three-dimensional blackened trim is added around the headlights below, and the interior is hollowed out to reduce the drag coefficient of the front of the car. Personally, I still appreciate the front shape of the Maxus G70, I don't know what you think?
The Maxus G70, positioned as a mid-size MPV, has a relatively compact body posture and a body length of 49m, wheelbase 2960mm, the main competitors are Odyssey and Elysian. Three low- and mid-spec variants are equipped with 17-inch tires, and two high-spec variants are equipped with 18-inch tyres. The tires are not large, after all, it is a family car, and everything is designed and equipped with practicality. The wheels with a low-drag design are also designed to cater to the aesthetics of the new era, and the straight and stretched body shape minimizes the encroachment on the interior space.
The rear shape is relatively simple, the biggest highlight is the through taillights, the left and right sides of the taillights into the bifurcation design, while extending up and down, it is easier for people to notice its existence, and the trunk surface uses a large area of white space design.
Unexpectedly,Maxus G70The interior design layout pays more attention to the creation of a sense of science and technology,The most conspicuous thing is the large-size fish screen,The large screen consists of three pieces of 12.3-inch screen composition. The partition is equipped with rich technological functions, because the screen is thin and light enough, so it still looks like it has a certain sense of luxury. At the bottom of the screen is a continuous air conditioning vent, followed by a row of touch buttons in front of the wireless charging panel of the mobile phone below, which is used to control the side sliding doors on both sides and other common functions. In order to improve the texture, the interior materials of the Maxus G70 are actually more particular, which is still very good.
In the actual experience process, we found that the car has several problems, first, the integrated touch button on the multi-function steering wheel is easy to accidentally touch. Second, the control logic of the vehicle system is not very reasonable, especially for the driver, who cannot be blindly controlled during driving.
As an MPV, the Maxus G70's second-row space is always for passengers, with two independent seats in the second row, electrically adjustable and heated from the mid-spec model, as well as leg rests and rear tables, which are some of the most commonly used features. The space performance of the third-row seats is decent, there is not much advantage, and there is no problem with temporary sitting for a while, I believe everyone has been mentally prepared for this. In addition, the top-of-the-line model of the Maxus G70 adopts a six-seat layout design, which has a more flexible and spacious space performance.
The Maxus G70 comes standard with 2 in terms of power0T engine, maximum horsepower 234ps, such a power output is no problem for daily travel, everyone is most worried about fuel consumption. Fortunately, the car only needs to add 92 gasoline, which is a lot more reassuring.
All-round understanding,Maxus G70The comprehensive quality is not bad,It is very suitable as a scooter for two-child and three-child families,Although consumers currently have a lot of opinions on Maxus G70,But the pricing is not too picky there。 Again, the person who likes it likes it likes it after all, and the person who doesn't like it is useless to say more, and there will always be all kinds of problems. However, judging from the current consumer feedback on it, it is almost meaningless to achieve ideal sales results, and we can only observe and observe consumers' attitudes towards it.
