1, automatic parking system. Parking is a headache for novice drivers, especially in the face of some small parking spaces, which makes people crazy. The appearance of automatic parking system seems to make some unskilled driver friends see hope.
However, this seemingly advanced configuration has many disadvantages. 1, the recognition rate of parking spaces is not high, and the parking spaces that can be recognized by the system can be parked normally even by novice drivers; 2, there are security risks, low obstacles can not be effectively identified, detection equipment failure; 3, the speed is slow, and when the system finishes the car, the old driver next to it has finished smoking a cigarette.
Therefore, automatic parking is of little use, and its practicality is not as good as reversing images and parking radar.
2. Shift paddles. Shift paddles have always been the configuration that represents sportiness and driving pleasure in manufacturer's propaganda. If your car is really a car with enough power and control, then the shift paddles are icing on the cake and make driving more interesting. But if it's just an ordinary family car, the shift paddle is really just a decoration, and many people will not use it again after using it once.
But then again, if you really like the feeling that people and cars are integrated when shifting gears, isn't manual gear more fragrant?
3. Regional air conditioning. Regional air conditioning means that the temperature in different areas of the car can be adjusted independently. For example, regional air conditioning means that the temperature on the left and right sides of the car can be adjusted independently; Four-zone air conditioning means that the temperature of the front and rear rows and the left and right sides can be adjusted independently. This seemingly advanced configuration, for cars with small space, the partition effect is not obvious.
In addition, the principle of zonal air conditioning is to increase the air door of air conditioning, divide the air duct into thinner and more air ducts, and send them to different pipes after passing through several mixing air doors. The mixing air doors are realized by multiple independent controllers, but there is still only one air conditioning compressor. The simple understanding is to adjust the air volume at the air outlet of the air conditioner, just changing the ordinary manual mode into the automatic mode.
4, central control big screen. Now the car screen is getting bigger and bigger, and some manufacturers can't wait to move the TV directly to the car. Is it necessary to install such a large screen on vehicles mainly used for travel? Even if the car networking is very advanced now, isn't the mobile phone smarter and more convenient?
If it is as advertised by some manufacturers, the big screen in the middle is like a mobile ipad, which can play games, surf the Internet, occasionally watch small movies and sing karaoke to kill boring time. But when bored, who stays in a narrow car all the time, and this guy consumes electricity, has to turn on the engine, and has to turn on the air conditioner in hot weather. Isn't this a waste of energy and environmental pollution?
If you really want to play, wouldn't it be better to lie on the big sofa at home and "eat hot pot and sing" So those large-sized central control panels are also chicken ribs.
1, tire pressure monitoring. Tire pressure monitoring, airbag and ABS anti-lock braking system are called the three major safety systems of automobiles, but unfortunately, many people ignore their importance. Relevant data show that at least half of the traffic accidents on expressways in China are caused by puncture. If the speed of the accident is 120km/h, the probability of death will exceed half.
Tire pressure monitoring can monitor the tire pressure in real time, and send an early warning to the owner in time when the tire pressure is abnormal, effectively reducing the occurrence of tire puncture.
2. Side airbag. Like tire pressure monitoring, side airbags are easily overlooked by consumers. For cost reasons, many cars are only equipped with main/co-driver airbags, and side airbags are only equipped on high-profile models.
In the event of a collision, the side airbag can reduce the physical injuries such as fractures caused by the direct collision between the arms and ribs of the passengers near the door and the door panel.
3. Body stability system. Body stability system is the inheritance and further expansion of anti-lock braking and traction control functions. Through this system, the vehicle can maintain the best stability under various working conditions, and at the same time, it can effectively prevent the risk of losing control when the vehicle reaches the dynamic limit.
In some countries in Europe and America, the body stabilization system has been installed compulsorily, and most cars sold in China are also equipped with the body stabilization system as standard.
4. Front/rear parking radar or reversing image. Whether you are a novice driver or an old driver, reversing radar or reversing images are necessary. After all, there are more and more cars now and the parking spaces are tight and narrow. Parking is really difficult without the assistance of reversing radar or reversing image.
5. Rear seat air outlet. If your car is for home use, listen to Mr. buy buy's advice and make sure there is an air outlet in the back row, otherwise there will be a situation of "freezing to death in the front row and hot death in the back row" in summer, which will easily lead to family disharmony.
Through the above introduction, I believe that everyone has a general understanding of which configurations are important and which configurations are chicken ribs.
If your budget is not enough, and the models you are concerned about are equipped with those important configurations as standard, then buy buy Jun recommends buying the "low-profile" version.
There are five main reasons.
1, the appearance of high-end and low-end models is similar.
2. The high-profile models depreciate faster.
3. The body structure of the high-match and low-match models is basically the same.
4. The later maintenance cost of low-profile models is lower.
5. Some high-profile models have flashy configurations and low frequency of use.
Therefore, old drivers often say "buy a car and buy a low-priced car", but not all cars are suitable for this law. Next, let's take a look at those models on the market that are suitable for buying low-priced cars.
The first12nd generation Corolla based on TNGA architecture adopts four-wheel independent suspension system, which reduces the center of gravity of the car body and adopts lightweight design, and the driving quality and handling are improved compared with the previous generation. In addition, Corolla with a new design language looks younger and more sporty, and the interior is more fashionable. Is a product suitable for all ages, using floating central control panel.
Of course, worry-free, fuel-efficient and high reliability are still the selling points of Corolla, and this generation of Corolla is also very kind in safety configuration. The whole system comes standard with front airbag, head air curtain, knee airbag, co-pilot cushion airbag, tire pressure display, body stability system, automatic parking and uphill assist.
Even the entry-level model with the price of 1 19800 is equipped with Toyota Safety Sense intelligent safety system, including ACC adaptive cruise system, lane departure warning, lane keeping assistance and active braking. It is necessary to know that many of these configurations are only available in the top and sub-top models of the same class. So if you are a consumer with a low budget but a crush on Corolla, entry-level models are also a good choice.
Angkeira completed the replacement last year, and the new car adopts hybrid design 2.0, which makes the appearance more concise and capable. As we know, space is the biggest bottleneck restricting the sales of the previous generation of Angkor Sela, and in order to improve the interior space, this generation of Angkor Sela has made two improvements. First, the length and wheelbase of the car body are 80mm and 26mm respectively, which is longer than the old one; Secondly, the rear independent suspension of the old model was replaced by a torsion beam suspension.
Of course, because the torsion beam suspension has been changed, many people are worried that the new car will lose its previous control. In buy buy's view, such worries are somewhat redundant. This suspension of the new Angkor Saila is different from the traditional torsion beam suspension, which is officially called "SEB Butterfly Bionic Rear Suspension Structure". Its biggest feature is to increase the pipe diameter of the parts at the joint of the rear wheel, improve the angular stiffness of the rear wheel and improve the handling stability.
Although the SKYACTIV-X engine failed to meet with you as scheduled, the fashionable appearance, good handling, plus room for improvement and NVH, the new Angkor Vesela is still the "little three" sought after by young consumers.
This generation of Angkor Sela is quite sincere in configuration. As the only manual transmission model in the whole department, it doesn't just play the role of lowering the overall price range like many other entry-level cars of the same level. We saw 9 airbags (including knee airbags), automatic start and stop, LED headlights, automatic parking, multi-function steering wheel, keyless start, reversing image+reversing radar, rear air conditioning air outlet, 8.8-inch touch screen +7-inch LCD dashboard and other configurations, which are not "bad" at all. If you are a potential buyer who loves manual transmission, then the crazy entry-level Angkeira is worth recommending.
Based on Cadillac Escala concept car, CT5 adopts long front and short front suspension design, which not only creates a good sports atmosphere visually, but also has good sports genes of the same class, such as rear wheel drive, 50:50 front and rear counterweight, two-ball McPherson front suspension, 2.0T high-power engine+10 speed automatic manual transmission, and the top model is also equipped with Brembo braking system and MRC active electromagnetic induction.
In terms of configuration, Cadillac CT5 comes standard with active braking system, side airbags, front/rear head airbags, body stabilization system and tire pressure monitoring. The security configuration is worthy of recognition. The entry-level model with a price of 279,700 yuan is equipped with electric sunroof, aluminum alloy 18 inch wheel hub, keyless start, leather multi-function steering wheel, leather seat, steering wheel shift, active noise reduction, electric adjustment of main driver's seat, automatic air conditioning, 10 inch central control panel, etc. , the configuration is also enough.
The BMW 3 Series has always been the control benchmark at the same level. Although the new generation of BMW 3 Series (G28) has become bigger, more comfortable and more luxurious, it still has excellent sports genes of BMW 3 Series and retains good mechanical quality, with front and rear drive, 50:50 front and rear body counterweight, front double joint spring damping and ZF's 2.0T+ 8AT gearbox, so it is still the familiar BMW.
In terms of configuration, the whole system comes standard with full LCD instrument, central control large screen, wireless CarPlay, electric adjustment of driver's seat and passenger's seat, leather steering wheel, electric sunroof, active closing of air intake grille, tracking and reversing, etc. Therefore, even entry-level models will not be out of control in configuration.
Of course, in order to make a difference, the low-profile 2020 320i sports suit is only equipped with a low-power 2.0T engine with a maximum power of 156 horsepower. If you are a Buddhist driver, then the low-power entry BMW 3 Series is also a good choice. However, if there are certain requirements for power, buy buy Jun still suggests adding 20,000 yuan and choosing a high-powered 2020 to modify the 325i M sports suit.
Before buying a car, you may think that this configuration is good and that configuration is good, but after buying a car, you will find that apart from being expensive and basically useless, what is practical and what is useless. At this time, there is no hurry to regret.
So Mr. buy buy reminds everyone to do their homework before buying a car. Don't be fooled by sales. Originally, he went to buy a "bike", but as a result, he brought a "Rolls Royce", which made him return home with a full load, not worth the candle. Do what you can, after all, some cars are not bad.
