Can Lang Wei Pro, whose performance is better than Civic Earth Dream, stand up against Fista?
However, the market is upgrading and consumers' tastes are changing. A Civic obviously can't satisfy all young people who love performance, especially in the case that Civic is becoming more and more domestic, many young people have been "discouraged" by the appearance of "Little Accord".
Other brands have already stocked "ammunition" in the big cake for the sports car market. Beijing Hyundai Fista, who is thinking about Civic every second, has been named as the Terminator, and the Buick Lang Wei Pro series "Avatar", which has just been listed, is also scrambling to return to its former glory.
Then the question is, since Fista and Lang Wei Pro are both benchmark civic, can their fighting value stand? This paper mainly compares the two cars from the aspects of performance and driving control that young consumers care about, and who is more worth buying!
1.5T engine versus 1.6T engine.
Buick brand has begun to replace all its products with four cylinders after three cylinders were depressed in previous years. As a new replacement model, Lang Wei Pro is no exception. The engine it uses is the eighth generation Ecotec 1.5T engine of General Motors, which was named Avatar in the film and television. In terms of performance parameters, it can output the maximum power 135kW and the peak torque is 250 N m. Although the power level has improved a lot compared with the previous Lang Wei models, it still gives many surprises to the market. However, if you look closely, you will find that this "Avatar" is actually not as powerful as you think, and it is unstoppable. Although it is a little ahead of Civic or other sedan models with the same price, it has not opened the absolute gap anyway. As can be seen from the comparison with Fista.
At present, Fista 202 1 car completely adopts 1.6T engine in power, among which the high-power car is 280 TGDi high-power engine with 204 horsepower and maximum torque of 265n m. After special power adjustment, the engine responds more quickly, achieving a 100-kilometer acceleration time of 7.6 seconds, and the torque and power are ahead of Lang Wei are 65438. If Lang Wei Pro is half a grade ahead of Civic in performance, then it is obvious that Fista has been fully ahead of a stage.
Chassis configuration is the key. Can a torsion beam be compared with an independent suspension?
Friends who know cars know that the chassis of cars, like human bones and muscles, plays a vital role in the sports and comfort of cars. Especially for sports-oriented models, how to widen the gap with ordinary cars? In addition to the power advantages, models like Civic and Fista can make great efforts on the chassis structure of the whole vehicle to create a more comfortable and enjoyable suspension system for consumers.
In Fista and Lang Wei Pro, the gap between chassis suspension is very obvious; First of all, Fista adopts the suspension forms of front McPherson independent suspension and rear multi-link independent suspension. This suspension mode can keep the wheels perpendicular to the ground as much as possible while ensuring comfort, minimize the inclination of the car body, maintain the adhesion of the tires to the ground, and provide stronger handling stability.
The front suspension of Lang Wei Pro application is McPherson independent suspension, which is a routine operation; Then there is a sinkhole in the rear suspension, and a torsion beam+Watt connecting rod dependent suspension is applied. Generally speaking, we generally think that independent suspension is simpler in structure and lower in cost than torsion lianghao. Especially for sports performance, the difference between the two suspension systems is more obvious, so generally speaking, only in the entry-level family car products, based on cost considerations, most manufacturers will apply torsion beam suspension. Although Buick has optimized the suspension of torsion beam and Watt connecting rod, in essence, dependent suspension is doomed to be inferior in motion based on structural differences.
Comparing the dynamic performance and suspension system, it is obvious that Fista is more sporty and can meet the needs of young people for passionate driving. The engine of Fista 1.6T has great advantages in power, and the independent suspension adds a lot to it. On the contrary, after replacing the three-cylinder engine, Lang Wei Pro regained some advantages, but it did not create an absolute difference advantage, and the configuration of the torsion beam was not sincere enough. From this, we can choose between Fista and Lang Wei. Obviously, Fista is worth buying!
