Car ReviewsWhy choose the TIGGO 8 PRO?
Who sells the best in Chinese brands this year, I believe we all know it is BYD, because its sales of new energy vehicles have always been far ahead, but in the fuel car, who sells the best in Chinese brands do you know? That’s the Chinese brand Chery – TIGGO 8.
External Appearance
TIGGO 8 PRO Champion Edition is the latest new model, the exterior design of the car’s front face is very recognisable using a dot-matrix design of the large size of the front grille, from afar, you may think that this is not a TIGGO 8 PRO but a Land Rover. Then there are other details, that is, it has some irregularly designed cooling vents on both sides, the overall front face is very aggressive ah, also looks very atmospheric.
Let’s take a look at its side, relatively speaking, the design is not particularly strong, in addition the waistline presents a slightly upward curve, and then the roof also has a certain curvature. Overall, it is actually more in line with the appearance of a petrol car.
The Rear Of Avehicle
The rear part of the car adopts a penetrating taillight, which is also a more mainstream design nowadays, while unlocking the car the taillight will have an animation effect like flowing water, giving people a feeling of technology in the visual aspect. At the same time, the rear of the car’s high brake lights this piece will have a small arrow design when lit, as opposed to the traditional design of a horizontal bar, I think this piece is a very heartfelt small detail.
It has a silver-coloured exhaust hole on each side, which also adds to the sporty feel, so although its overall design says there are no highlights of particularly large details, it is still very recognisable if you look at it from its front face.
Interior Decor
In fact, the overall design of the new car’s interior is actually not much changed compared to the old design, using a textured wood grain design and a large area of leather parcels, all of which make the whole area full of a sense of high class. The main changes are in some of the configuration, such as the two 24.6-inch dual-screen upgraded to Qualcomm Snapdragon 815 chip, and then its UI interface redesigned more simply. Because this interface is up and down slide, but for many designs, left and right slide will be more convenient.
Detailed description
Next look at other details, first TIGGO 8 PRO is equipped with a 50-watt wireless charging, while there are two cup holders, in addition this model also has a head-up display and includes eight Sony audio configurations, the new car is the most special is that it added the Queen’s passenger, we can see that the passenger side of the passenger seat is a power leg rest, and it has a heated, ventilated, massage and other functions, which is very friendly to the family user. This is very friendly to family users.
Space in general
The wheelbase of the TIGGO 8 PRO Champion Edition is 2710mm, so there is still a lot of space in the back. We are in the driver’s seat sitting position is also more comfortable, height is one metre eight people sit down to go to the leg space there is a certain amount of space, but will not top the top of the head, so that it is the overall space is still relatively abundant. Because the seat material, including the stitching, is very textured so that the overall driving comfort is more than enough.
TIGGO 8 PRO Performance
TIGGO 8 PRO Championship Edition is actually two sets of powertrains, one is 1.6T, and one is 2.0T, the Kunpeng 1.6T engine it is a maximum power is 145Kw, and a maximum torque is 296Nm. this model actually has three driving modes, we get on the car when it defaults to the economic mode, in this mode, you will feel that this car to driven with no difficulty and a sense of familiarity. This model actually has three driving modes. When you step on the accelerator when basically no power output until the second half to feel the power out of this economic mode is to save fuel and tuning.
But its sport mode that feeling is completely different, the throttle sensitivity is greatly increased, and you can clearly feel the power output is in a straight-line acceleration. But it is in the sport mode speed to a certain degree, I think it’s a little bit of engine noise, and NVH needs to be improved. Its standard mode is somewhere in between, and it’s just a bit more ordinary, so basically there’s nothing to praise or criticise.
The chassis of this new car is a McPherson type + multi-link independent suspension system, the overall tuning is slightly hard. But it has a clear road feel, and there is plenty of lateral support, and the seat comfort is also very good so that the overall driving experience is still OK, you feel that the bumps will be very small, especially when we then go over some bumpy roads, or speed bumps, it is very slight filtering, will not let you have the feeling of being thrown up.
Summary
It can be said that at this price level, TIGGO 8 PRO Champion Edition’s product performance is still very good, from the configuration of the intelligent configuration and comfort configuration is relatively complete; and from the driving experience, although it does not give a particularly strong accelerating passion, but overall it is very reliable. If your car purchase needs to happen to be in this price range, and at the same time you want to buy a fuel car, then I think it is a choice you should consider.
Car ReviewsMG5 2023 Detailed Review
MG’s models in the last two years are mainly youth-oriented, like the MG6, and MG7 this series also adopted a youthful design. MG5 is the second best-selling model in the brand MG, sales have been very impressive since the launch, the highest of which is the highest time is every month can have 10,000 sales, just because of the latter after the launch of the MG7 a little bit of influence.
External Appearance
The MG5 has a length of 4675mm, a wheelbase of 2680mm, a front solo rear plate suspension, 16-inch wheels, and a choice of red, white and yellow body colours.
The front end of the car is the family styling of MG, smoked black centre mesh headlights are sharp, and the full range of LED headlights has become a standard configuration in this era. The curve of the side C column can see the classic sliding back shape, the tail lamp shape is also the same as the MG6, which can also be said to be the youth version of the MG6, the overall more youthful sports style. MG5 face value of 100,000 within the family sedan inside should be able to rank in the top three.
Interior Decor
The style of the entire interior will make you feel that MG is a brand that focuses on a youthful and cosmopolitan style. The central control like a honeycomb with brushed metal technology combination of decorative panels makes people feel at first glance that the design is very youthful, the door armrest also uses of leather wrapped materials, the central control screen is below the floating buttons, the passenger side in front of a diamond-shaped glossy decorations, the steering wheel is a traditional three-spoke steering wheel, air vents are also used in the shape of a diamond.
The steering wheel only supports up and down adjustment and can not be adjusted left and right, the seat package is very strong, and the whole car seat is made of a soft material so in the comfort of the above has been greatly improved. The way to adjust the seat is manual, although it is a manual mechanical adjustment of the seat, in this price point of the model this configuration does not show low.
The height of 1.8m into the back row, legroom is no problem, just not much headroom margin, 1842mm wide in the same class sedan is more eye-catching, but the back row can be seated 3 adults will still feel a little crowded.
Exterior styling, interior styling including power are its strengths, the only drawback is that the rear row is not equipped with USB ports, so the experience of the passengers in the back is not very good.
Taillight
A final look at the MG5 exterior design highlight is the car’s taillight shape, a combination of what looks like a lion’s paw and a fishbone, which is a very unique design at this price. The boot space is quite large as the MG5 is a traditional three-door car.
Tail has a Logo is 300TGI, meaning that the maximum torque approximation 285Nm, is that you buy the highest torque and horsepower at this price inside the model; if you want to pursue the cost-effective, MG5 also has a 1.5 self-absorption with a CVT, CVT transmission is an analogue of eight-speed, this process is much worse than the power, but the energy consumption is relatively low.
Dynamics
It is understood that the new MG5 continues to provide 1.5L and 1.5T two sets of power for consumers to choose from, its maximum power of 181Ps and 129Ps, compared with the 2022 models were raised 9/8Ps; maximum torque of 285N-m and 158N-m, although it does not bring much driving passion, but enough to meet the family commuting. In traffic jams and low-speed driving, the transmission is a little stuttering, and most of the rest of the time, the gearshift is relatively smooth, the steering wheel is light, and novice drivers will not be nervous.
The chassis uses a front MacPherson, rear torsion beam non-independent suspension, in the speed bumps and potholes when passing through the road, you can feel the rear suspension is hard, the chassis filtering is general, running at high-speed speeds of more than 110, the tyre noise and wind noise is easy to be transmitted into the car.
Summary
This facelift of the 2023 MG5 is not exactly a stunner and there are a few things that make it unsatisfactory, but they are all within the acceptable range, and coupled with the cheap price tag, it is still a favourite among consumers.
