Chevrolet Explorer 1.5T Yujie Edition has been driving for a whole day. How to evaluate this car?

On the first day of the new year, I was lucky enough to pick up the car for my riders. The model is Chevy Explorer Yujie Edition, which is the top match of 1.5T, and the full payment was made as early as 1.8t (loan). My biker wants to buy the 2.0T version, but he doesn't have a car. Considering the price gap and some objective reasons, I put forward the 1.5t version.

In terms of appearance, the explorer's shape is still relatively fashionable. The shield design of the air intake grille is very recognizable, and there is obvious chrome decoration around the grille. The headlight design is also very spiritual, and the eye-opening language is in place. From a distance, the whole front face is still relatively small and exquisite. There is no cumbersome layering, and there is no avant-garde point. It is an acceptable front face for the public.

From the car body, the explorer's side design is more than 4.6 meters long. The inclined C-pillar and the blackened tail pillar are the representative symbols of the explorer's side body. On the road, it can be said that people who know the explorer a little can recognize the car at a glance. The whole body design is basically consistent with the American version. Hub 17 inch, a little small. If it can be 18 or 19, it will look more domineering.

Next, let's talk about the most important driving experience, which lasted for nearly a day. Of course it's not continuous. Explorer 1.5T version vehicle weight1.52t, gearbox 6AT. Needless to say, the total power achievement is not as radical as the 2.0T version 9AT combination, but it is stable and reliable. The power output is smooth enough, the direction is light, the chassis is not heavy enough, and the sense of grade from the chassis feedback to the steering wheel is also lacking, not to mention compact and fragmented. If you like driving very much, to put it bluntly, this car lacks the feeling of integration of people and cars. The cars of the same class at this price are basically the same. After all, this is an intermediate SUV, and the above is the driving quality.

Then let's talk about the interior. The interior of this explorer is really not as good as the old Mai Rui Bao. Although there is soft leather, it is also semi-soft leather and semi-plastic, and the overall design has a single sense of hierarchy, but it is not concise and exquisite. It can be said that the interior of the explorer, especially the central control, can only be described as despicable.

Then talk about space, the explorer's positioning is a medium-sized SUV with a wheelbase of 2725mm, which is actually larger than this 2725mm data shows. First, adjust the position of the front seat. There are still two fists around the knee, which is more comfortable. The vertical space is completely sufficient, and the horizontal space is acceptable. However, there is one drawback. The co-pilot can't adjust his height, and his sitting posture is high, which makes him uncomfortable. The main driver supports four-way adjustment and the driver's seat is quite good. Let's look at the space in the back row.

There is no protrusion on the rear floor, the seat length is completely acceptable, and the leg space is very spacious. Although crossing your legs is not enough, it can make people sleep well. There are two USB ports in the back row for direct charging, which is very enviable. Bian Xiao's car has no USB charging function in the back row.

The seats are all leather, and the car has no smell, which is quite surprising. The smell is almost invisible, and the smell of leather is almost gone. It seems that the explorers have made great efforts to protect the environment in the car. Finally, talk about the main configuration. This 1.5T top-mounted Explorer configuration is not bad. There are 6 airbags (including head airbags, that is, side air curtains), panoramic sunroof, GPS navigation, reversing images, cruise control, uphill assistance, electric trunk, keyless entry, automatic closing of air intake grille, remote start, 4.2-inch LCD instrument panel, front seat heating, 8-inch central control large screen and so on.

I will definitely have a meal in the end, which is still very rich. Give this car a score of 10, appearance value of 7.2 points, interior of 6 points, power of 7 points, driving sense of 6.2 points, space of 8.5 points, cost performance of 8 points, and recommended purchase degree is moderate.
