Who chooses plug-in hybrid? Contrast Buick light blue 6PHEV Corolla twin engine E+

With the development of new energy vehicles in full swing, plug-in hybrid vehicles have attracted more and more attention. After all, they can enjoy the smooth driving comfort, quick and agile acceleration of pure electric vehicles, and most importantly, they can refuel without any mileage anxiety. In many megacities where gasoline vehicles are restricted, plug-in hybrid vehicles can also enjoy faster license policies, such as Shanghai and Shenzhen. So what are the cost-effective plug-in hybrid models on the market? Today, we will choose two joint venture brand models, Buick's light blue 6PHEV and Toyota's Corolla twin-engine E+, and see who chooses plug-in or hybrid.

Let's take a look at the basic data of these two cars first. Both cars are compact models, but Buick light blue 6PHEV is a multifunctional and sporty body design, similar to the shape of a station wagon, which not only looks elegant and slender, but also wider and more practical. Toyota Corolla twin-engine E+ is a typical sedan, which looks traditional.

In terms of body size, the light blue 6PHEV is 4648mm long, 18 17mm wide, 149 1mm high and has a wheelbase of 2660mm. The length, width, height and wheelbase of Corolla E+ engine are 4635mm, 1775mm, 1470mm and 2700mm respectively. Although the wheelbase of the Corolla twin-engine E+ is longer, there is no problem for the rear seats of the two cars to meet the daily needs of the family. The light blue 6PHEV has a larger length, width and height, especially the larger width brings better lateral space inside the car, and the ride experience will be easier. The shape similar to a station wagon also brings greater trunk carrying capacity. In terms of space practicality, it is obvious that the light blue 6PHEV will be stronger.

As for the hybrid power system, Buick Micro Blue 6PHEV adopts plug-in hybrid power system, which consists of 1.5L DVT four-cylinder engine, E-CVT intelligent electronically controlled continuously variable gearbox, motor capable of outputting 178 horsepower and 405 Nm torque, and battery pack with a capacity of 9.5kWh, with a pure battery life of 60km. Toyota corolla twin-engine E+ adopts 1.8L engine and E-CVT gearbox. Its motor can output 72 horsepower and 207 Nm of torque, and the maximum output power of the combination of gasoline engine and motor is 136 horsepower. Battery capacity 10.5kWh, battery life 55 km.

From the comparison of power data, it can be seen that the motor performance of Buick Light Blue 6PHEV is obviously higher, and its power level of 178 horsepower and 405 Nm torque is much higher than the comprehensive output data of Toyota Corolla dual-engine E+ engine plus motor. Stronger power will make the blue 6PHEV accelerate faster, overtake more freely and drive more freely. Its 100-kilometer acceleration ability is about 8.6 seconds, which is one level faster than 1 1.6 seconds of Corolla twin-engine E+. From the most direct numerical comparison, you should also be able to intuitively feel the performance gap between the two cars.

There is little difference in pure battery life between the two cars. Buick Blue 6PHEV adopts a battery pack with a capacity of 9.5kWh, which can support 60 kilometers of pure battery life. Toyota Corolla twin-engine E+ uses a battery pack with a capacity of 10.5kWh, with a battery life of 55 kilometers. The light blue 6PHEV battery has a slightly smaller capacity but a longer battery life. In terms of fuel consumption, light blue 6 phev 4.7L/ 100km, and Corolla twin-engine E+4.3L/ 100km are all excellent levels.

Both Buick and Toyota have a very deep technical precipitation in the field of hybrid power systems, and the micro-blue 6PHEV and Corolla dual-engine E+ also have very mature performances. Their pure battery life is enough for most people to commute in one day, go home at night and charge it, and then start it at full power the next day. Even if they can't go home to charge every day, their gasoline engine is enough to make people feel no mileage anxiety. Moreover, the power switching and connection between gasoline engine and motor are very high, and there will be no surprises at all. Moreover, the fuel consumption of both cars is at a very low level. Although it is a plug-in hybrid car, the fuel consumption of 5L is less than 100 kilometers, which is also an excellent performance in ordinary hybrid cars. However, the blue 6PHEV uses a more powerful motor, which accelerates faster, drives better and has the acceleration pleasure of a pure tram. This should be its magic weapon to win, so that it has an advantage in comparison.

If the hybrid system is slightly better than Buick light blue 6PHEV, then another configuration that everyone attaches great importance to at present-the in-vehicle intelligent system, which adopts Buick eConnect system, can basically be regarded as an in-vehicle system that can dump Toyota Corolla dual-engine E+.

Buick eConnect system supports voice recognition and voice interaction. You can let the system set navigation for you, adjust the temperature of the air conditioner, play your favorite songs, and even tell you a joke through dialogue. With the annual 100GB "OnStar Anji Star Car Link Application Free of Traffic", online music and entertainment resources, online real-time navigation updates road conditions, making daily car use enjoyable and relaxed.

The system also supports the Super ID personal account function, which can realize one-click association and joint login of apps such as WeChat, Gaode Navigation, Netease Cloud Music and Koala FM. It can be upgraded remotely through OTA, support remote viewing of vehicle conditions and control of vehicles through mobile APP, and even share the vehicle startup authority to mobile phones, so that vehicles can be used even without car keys. In terms of vehicle intelligence, the function of Buick Micro Blue 6PHEV is still mainstream and practical.

The function of Toyota Corolla dual-engine E+ is quite conservative, and there is no network function. Naturally, it is impossible to have voice interaction, online entertainment resources, online road maps and other functions, not to mention the upgrade of OTA. Unfortunately, 202 1 still sells a car with no intelligent function at all. The only consolation is that it supports Baidu's carlife function, but I believe all the friends who have used it know what it feels like.

In terms of price and configuration, there are currently three Buick Light Blue 6PHEV models on sale, and the subsidized price is 159800 yuan to 179800 yuan. The price of Toyota Corolla twin-engine E+ ranges from 189800 yuan to 2 12800 yuan, which is obviously more expensive. However, in terms of configuration, the slightly blue 6HEV with lower price has more advantages. We also compare the top models, and we will find that the configuration of the micro-blue 6HEV with a price of 33,000 yuan simply kills the Corolla twin-engine E+.

Buick blue 6PHEV rear suspension is a multi-link independent suspension, and Toyota Corolla dual-engine E+ is a torsion beam independent suspension. The light blue 6PHEV is an electronic handbrake, and the Corolla double engine E+ is a mechanical hand brake. The light blue 6PHEV adopts 225/45/R 18 tire wheels, and the E+ of Corolla double engine is 205/55/R 16. The light blue 6PHEV also has many configurations, such as parallel assistance, lane departure warning, active braking, front and rear parking radar, automatic parking function, panoramic sunroof, electric trunk, remote start, battery preheating, multi-layer sound insulation glass and air purifier. And corolla dual-engine E+ doesn't even have a top model.
