Compared with CS85 COUPE, Jietu X95 has the same price, looks and practicality. Which one should I choose?

Although the domestic automobile market has picked up in 2019, the overall trend is still in the cold winter. Against this background, the continuous introduction of segmented and vertical products has become one of the main development directions of major manufacturers. Among them, coupe SUVs and 7-seat SUVs are what domestic automobile manufacturers are targeting in this environment. two major blue oceans. The former puts more emphasis on the display of good looks and cross-border style, while the latter targets the increasingly large second-child family market. So regarding the different style positioning of the two, which model do you think will be more in line with the user trend in 2020? Next, we will take Jietu X95 and Changan CS85 COUPE at the same price as examples. At the same price, the appearance and practicality are equivalent. Which one would you prefer to choose?

Appearance: Exquisite and avant-garde VS full and durable

For young consumers who pursue personalized appearance, appearance is the first factor when buying a car, among which the appearance of coupe and SUV is The inherent advantages of Dangtou determine that this model is more in line with the car buying needs of young people. As one of the first coupe SUVs in China, Changan CS85 COUPE can be said to be the most attractive in the Changan SUV family.

The eye-catching butterfly-wing air intake grille on the front part of the car is decorated with multiple horizontal chrome-plated modules, which greatly enhances the sophistication of the entire vehicle. In addition, thanks to the continuous chrome-plated lines around the grille, the entire fog lamp area and the air intake mouth perfectly form a whole. With the eagle-eye star diamond headlights on both sides of the front of the car, the entire front face reveals A visual experience that combines art and technology. In addition, with the typical fastback design of a coupe SUV, such an exquisite and eye-catching model will naturally turn heads when driving on the road.

Although the appearance of the Jietu X95 is not eye-catching, the car has good performance in the details of each part, creating a sense of quality and popular elements. The front part of the car still adopts the Jietu family's "Huicheng Leader" design language. The hexagonal air intake grille is decorated with dot-matrix chrome-plated modules and thick decorative strips on both sides, which makes it look particularly majestic and unique. At the same time, the chrome trim strips extending from the top of the grille to both sides are cleverly connected to the headlights on both sides, resembling upturned cornices. On the whole, although it is not as suitable as the CS85 COUPE to suit the tastes of young people, its stable and full visual experience still has a wider audience.

Interior: The two technologies are online, Changan is more passionate

Enter the car, the interior style of Changan CS85? COUPE is the same as its appearance, with red as the main interior color, matching The enveloping interstellar cockpit design gives people a more passionate driving atmosphere as a whole. Of course, when it comes to the specific design of the central control, the CS85 COUPE adopts a dual-screen design that is biased toward the driver's side. The 10.25-inch full LCD instrument panel is matched with a 12.3-inch central control screen. Users can control the overall situation through Easily understand the information on both screens. In addition, it is worth mentioning that in order to better cater to the needs of young consumers, Changan CS85 COUPE also provides 62-color ambient lights that are rare in its class. While igniting the passion for driving, it is also a friend to young men. Their tool for flirting.

As for the creation of interior styling, the most common method currently used by domestic independent brands is to integrate the design elements of popular joint venture cars or luxury cars into their own models. For this reason, there is a sense of familiarity in some independent brand cars, and the Jietu X95 is a good example of the essence. While maintaining the "Huicheng Leader" brand language, the interior style also incorporates The current three-screen linkage design with a strong sense of technology looks full of technology style overall. Of course, although the X95 is not as good as the former in creating a passionate atmosphere in the interior, it benefits from the sincerity in the materials used. For this reason, as far as the interior atmosphere is concerned, the two are still "the road is facing the sky, each going its own way."

Space: X95 has more advantages

When it comes to space, I have to admit that coupe SUVs are indeed slightly inferior to competing products of the same level in this regard. After all, after adding the big fastback , although it has been greatly improved in terms of appearance, the sacrifice in space also needs to be measured by consumers themselves. For this reason, in terms of space, if the CS85? COUPE is placed in the mid-sized SUV market, the car will definitely not be ranked first. On the top, if you place it among coupe SUVs, the CS85 COUPE can be positioned at the mid-to-upper level.

In contrast, when the Jietu brand launched its first model, the X70, it keenly recognized the demand for consumption upgrades in the new environment and deeply cultivated the market positioning of "travel +", which is a good example. Explaining why, Jietu X95’s new promotional slogan is “Create your exclusive first-class travel SUV.” The vehicle's body size of 4875/1925/1780mm and wheelbase of 2855mm make the X95's space at the upper level in the mid-size SUV field. In addition, the official also provides users with three seat layouts of 5, 6 and 7 seats. The large space and multiple configurations have become an important selling point of the car. This is indeed a good choice for consumers who want to buy a medium-sized SUV and have space needs. A good choice.

Power: Jietu pony and large car, Changan performs better

In terms of power, although both are positioned as medium-sized SUVs, the overall performance of the Changan CS85 COUPE is better than that of the Jietu The Tu X95 is a lot better. The entire Changan CS85 COUPE series provides consumers with two powertrains, 1.5T and 2.0T. The transmission system is matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch and Aisin 8-speed manual transmission. Among them, 2.0T+8AT has always been Changan's golden power combination, with a maximum power of 171kw and a peak torque of 360N·m. From the perspective of power parameters alone, it is even comparable to the 3.5L naturally aspirated engine. In addition, because the CS85 COUPE also uses Aisin's new generation 8-speed automatic manual transmission, the car's fuel economy and smoothness are much better than the previous models such as the CS95.

During the actual driving process, it can be said that the chassis performance of the Changan CS85 COUPE also brought many surprises to users. The overall texture of the chassis is very strong. Although it is not as tight as the German model, it is still The non-Japanese Buddha nature can give users a good sense of toughness when passing through potholes and speed bumps.

As for the performance of the Jietu X95, although the car provides consumers with two power versions of 1.5T and 1.6T, the 1.6T+7DCT independently developed by Chery was launched last year with the Chery 8. Gained good market reputation. But no matter how good the reputation of the 1.6T+7DCT is, when placed on the Jietu X95, a B+-class SUV, it does feel like a small horse pulling a big car, and the power performance is not as light as that of the Chery 8.

In terms of specific dynamic experience, the X95’s detailed feedback in handling small bumps is not as crisp as the CS85?COUPE’s. Although thanks to its larger size, it can perform well when facing larger potholes. The vibration filtering ability is good, but due to the rigidity adjustment not being tight enough, the car also has obvious roll when cornering. Overall, although the Jietu X95 does not have radical power output, its performance as a daddy car can only be regarded as above average.

Finally:

By observing the comprehensive strength of the two vehicles, it is not difficult to find that although the Changan CS85 COUPE and Jietu X95 have the same positioning and similar prices. But when it comes to the mid-size SUV market segment, Changan CS85 COUPE relies on the unique attributes inherent in coupe SUVs. It is indeed much better than Jietu X95 in terms of appearance and sports capabilities. But it is a pity that the former's sporty personality experience is obtained at the expense of space. In comparison, although the X95 looks more conservative and mediocre, there is no doubt that it is a comprehensive and powerful player in the mid-size SUV market. For this reason, how to choose between the two "specialized students" and "general students" ultimately depends on the user's main purpose.
