Bitauto Original In the sales/popularity list of Bitauto APP, compact SUVs occupy the top of the list all year round, and for the vast majority of domestic consumers, 100,000 yuan When buying an SUV on a budget, apart from the brand value, there are only three requirements for a vehicle at this price: 1. Eyesight is very important; 2. A comfortable and easy-to-drive transportation tool; 3. Finally, of course, the price/performance ratio must be high. Today, we will take the newly launched 2022 Chery Tiggo 7 Super Edition to see if this compact SUV is worth buying and how to choose it.
Price: The addition of the 1.5T model has officially brought the price of the 2022 model into within 100,000 yuan
Just in April this year, the 2021 Tiggo The 7 Super Edition was officially launched, but at that time, the new car only had two configurations, with guide prices of 109,900 yuan and 118,900 yuan respectively. Both cars were also equipped with a 1.6T+7-speed dual-clutch powertrain. Very soon, just last night, December 10, the 2022 Tiggo 7 Super Edition was officially launched for sale, with five configurations, two types of power, and a guide price of 86,900-111,900 yuan.
The configuration of the two 1.6T models of this new car has not changed much. The key is that three 1.5T models have been added this time. +CVT models have officially entered the price range of 100,000 yuan, which is naturally a big plus for many consumers who want to buy a compact SUV for 100,000 yuan. Regarding the price, configuration and purchase recommendations, we will talk about it later. First, as usual, let’s talk about its static and dynamic performance for those who don’t know much about this car.
Compared with the 21 models, the overall design of the new car is basically unchanged. Taking into account the addition of the 1.5T model, and the official statement that the configuration of the 1.6T model has been fine-tuned . It can be seen that the launch of the 2022 models is more like a power supply plan for the 2021 models. Of course, if you have taken a fancy to it through my introduction today, then considering that the 2021 models still have good discounts, maybe It is also a good choice, provided you can buy it.
First of all, the dot-matrix grille design is naturally the most eye-catching design on the front face of the whole car. It has a strong sense of detail, but for those with trypophobia For professionals, it may take some getting used to. The headlights running through both sides of the grille and the daytime running lights below both use the popular LED configuration, but the automatic opening and closing function is only available on high-end models; the silver trim strip under the front face is paired with red elements, which makes this car It doesn’t matter whether you exercise or not, at least the atmosphere is in place.
On the side part, the design elements of red brake calipers and red anti-scratch strips continue to consolidate the sporty feel of the vehicle, and the enlarged black area under the side also It makes the whole car look less bloated and has just the right sense of fashion. The exterior rearview mirror covers and B/C/D pillars are also painted in black.In terms of decoration, yes, it is still the familiar suspended roof design style. In order to attract consumers' attention, we must naturally integrate all popular design elements.
In terms of rims, except for the 1.5T, which uses 17-inch wheels in the lowest configuration, other models all use 18-inch gun gray painting style, which is different from the super version. The naming matches, to put it bluntly, it’s just for coolness! As for the tires, they are Chaoyang brand 225/60 R18 tires. The market price is 450-550 yuan a piece, which is quite affordable. The black luggage rack on the roof maintains a unified style with the design of the entire vehicle. It can also be expanded with various accessories such as bicycle racks, suitcases, storage racks, etc., which is quite practical.
At the rear, the design of the through-type taillights is very mainstream, but when lit, the central car The two sides of the logo are not bright, which is a bit regrettable. I can only say that the design is not perfect enough. The design of the high-mounted brake lights and spoiler maintains a slightly sporty atmosphere. The design of the two exhaust pipes under the tail is not a decoration, but a genuine double-sided two-outlet real exhaust. However, it is only on the 1.6T model, while on the 1.5T model, it is a single-sided hidden exhaust. design.
In terms of body size of the new car, the length, width and height are 4500/1842/1746mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2670mm, which is considered as good as it should be for this class. In terms of seating space, with a height of 182cm, the head space in the front row is more than enough. The head space in the rear row is basically the same as that in the front row. The leg room is three fingers in a punch. The center floor of the rear row is also relatively flat. The overall space performance is not bad, although Not very big, but definitely enough.
As for the trunk, the 1.6T top model is equipped with an electric tailgate, which makes accessing and placing items much more elegant. In terms of storage, the trunk is relatively neat and spacious, and the second-row seats support a 4/6 ratio of folding down, ensuring flexibility. Under the cover, there is a lot of storage space, which can be used to store some tools and accessories that are not commonly used. If you continue to open the bottom, there is a non-full-size spare tire. As the saying goes, it is not used at ordinary times, but it is very life-saving.
The interior continues the design of model 21, with classic red and black colors + soft leather covering + metal trim strips Embellishments highlight the level and texture of the vehicle's interior; a 7-inch LCD instrument panel, paired with a 10.25-inch floating central control screen, is responsible for highlighting the technological sense of the vehicle. The oversized panoramic sunroof makes the interior of the car appear more transparent, and the air-conditioning filter element that can filter PM2.5 also improves the sense of safety when using the car.
The leather steering wheel adopts a perforated and flat-bottomed design, which not only improves the grip but also creates a certain sense of movement. It also supports manual four-way adjustment, and is equipped with multi-function buttons on both sides, including cruise control, instrument panel settings, multimedia entertainment control, Bluetooth phone and voice control functions., the commonly used shortcut keys are basically complete.
The 10.25-inch multimedia supports a wide range of functions. In addition to navigation, phone calls, Internet of Vehicles, APP expansion, and OTA upgrades, it also supports CarPlay and CarLife dual-camp mobile phone interconnection is quite considerate. In terms of voice control, in addition to the functions in the multimedia system, it also supports air conditioning settings and sunroof opening and closing control, which is relatively easy to use. In terms of speakers, there are only 6 speakers in the whole car. After all, it is not a brand speaker, so it is inconvenient to ask for more.
Although it has a large-size touch screen, fortunately, this car has not forgotten its roots. It is equipped with physical shortcut keys at the bottom of the screen for driving. When using physical buttons to operate multimedia, it is much safer and more efficient than operating a touch screen. This is really a perception only experienced by experienced drivers. Anyone who uses it will know. However, the air-conditioning setting area adopts touch-sensitive settings, which enhances the sense of technology but sacrifices convenience. Fortunately, we can control it by voice, so it doesn’t matter if we get used to it.
The leather seats of the vehicle are relatively wide in design, soft in filling, and have strong bulging support on both sides. It is helpful for maneuvering when cornering. The seat fit is good enough so that the body will not sway left and right, which will help improve the self-confidence when driving. The main driver's seat supports 10-way electric adjustment (including 4-way lumbar support adjustment), and the passenger seat has 4-way electric adjustment. The entire front seat is equipped with electric heating function, which is very friendly to northern car owners.
In terms of driving assistance, the new car is only equipped with rear radar, and high-end models also have 360-degree panoramic images. , plus multiple adjustable viewing angles, it’s pretty good to use. Functions for daily use such as electronic handbrake, automatic parking, uphill assist, steep hill descent, tire pressure monitoring, etc. are also available. However, in terms of cruise, the 1.5T model is only equipped with fixed-speed battery life. If you want more advanced features, including a series of smart configurations such as full-speed adaptive cruise, lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, and active braking, you need to equip the 1.6T model. Optional equipment can only be selected based on the model, and the price is naturally close to 120,000 yuan.
