Click "Door Lock" on the screen of the mobile phone to unlock the vehicle. After getting on the bus, I still regret not clicking "start the engine" in advance to turn on the air conditioner. At this time, I realized that the phrase "born in the world, open and interconnected" is not just a slogan.
Anyway, in front of me is the largest and most expensive Lexus ever, so can it smell better than the Lexus 03+ released last year?
At the end of the day's test drive, I summed up five advantages and six disadvantages to share with you.
Five advantages
The first advantage is the interconnection function mentioned above, followed by design. Link family design from 0 1 to 03 is enough to find a new way and personality. Ke Ling 05, with its sleek back and strong family color, is definitely a personality among personalities.
I also have my own ideas on some small details, trying to create my own sports style. For example, the vertical air intake grille of the front air intake grille, the air guide design of the C-pillar position, the shorter tail shape, and the taillight shape different from the previous Lectra.
The design is enough for coupe SUV, with eye-catching personality and natural performance. Lectra 03+ with the same power is the third advantage of Lectra 05. The acceleration time of 254 HP, 350 Nm and 6.7 seconds is almost as high as that of BMW X4, which is twice as expensive.
With the fourth advantage, namely the fifth-generation timely four-wheel drive system of Borgwarner, the front and rear power of the new car can be distributed between 100:00-50:50. On the basis of running fast, running steadily is particularly important for such a car with SUV attributes.
Just looking at the data has no concept. For example, a car with the same power level is a T5 version of Volvo XC40. But even with a discount of 50 thousand, its price is 330 thousand
Although the motivation comes down in one continuous line, the feeling of Kailingke 05 and Kailingke 03+ is completely different. First of all, it has no violent exhaust sound. Secondly, in the economy mode and comfort mode, the initial response is very rapid, and then the dynamic performance in the acceleration process is very restrained.
Although the motivation is strong, there is a certain sense of pushing back, but there is no hurry to show the grumpy side. In addition, the 8AT gearbox is slightly lazy in this mode, and the overall acceleration is a gentle feeling.
Switch to sports mode, and the style changes greatly. At this time, the accelerator pedal becomes extremely sensitive, and the gearbox is more willing to stay in the low gear to improve the speed, and the initial explosive force is very strong. Even if the speed is 80km/h, you can jump out immediately by slightly increasing the accelerator pedal, and the smart and brisk performance is exciting enough.
As far as driving experience is concerned, Lexus 05 is by no means the only debut party of coupe SUV.
Its steering feel has changed from the lighter style of the previous Lexus 0 1, 02, 03 ordinary models, and the chassis performance has become more tough, which can convey more road feedback during driving. As for silence, it is not its strong point. Wind noise at high speed and tire noise of Goodyear Eagle F 1, which emphasizes performance, will be more introduced into the car.
In addition to the differences in driving atmosphere between Lexus 05 and previous Lexus models, the interior design has also changed the previous family-style design and refused aesthetic fatigue. In today's automobile market with serious homogenization, it is commendable.
In terms of interior materials, LECK 05 uses a lot of soft materials, such as cowboys suede leather and Napa leather. Its style is close to LECK 03+, which focuses on sports style. But the difference is that the in-car system, air conditioning outlet and control panel, and multi-function steering wheel are all tailor-made.
Take the multi-function steering wheel as an example, the control buttons on it are no longer individual, and its control mode not only supports pressing, but also controls some functions by touching. The air conditioning button on the side is arranged in front of the gear lever. If you don't look carefully, you will think that it is a common suspension and exhaust valve control button on performance cars.
12.7-inch central control large screen is one of the advantages of lectra 05. Compared with the new functions, the new screen modeling has greatly improved the fluency and experience.
A Home with fingerprint recognition is set at the bottom of the new screen, which is basically the same as the physical buttons of the previous generation iPhone. The difference is that the driver can log in to the personal account through fingerprint identification to realize the basic setting of the vehicle based on personal data.
In addition, the car system is also equipped with Qualcomm Xiaolong 820A processor, quad-core CPU, 4GB DDR4 memory, and 64GB SSD, and there will be no jamming in operation. The software layer has built-in networking functions such as high-tech map, online music and voice control, and the pull-down can be operated as quickly as a mobile phone. There is no complicated multi-level menu, and the difficulty of getting started is almost zero.
It is worth mentioning that after turning on the turn signal, you can also enter a 360 panoramic image, and the environment outside the car is highly restored. In practical use, whether parking or turning, it can provide a good view.
Six shortcomings
Up to now, Link's brand has established the image of "independent innovation and high quality". I am excited and happy to see that the automobile brands from China are getting stronger and stronger, and the products launched are getting stronger and stronger from generation to generation. However, I am willing to put forward some shortcomings just because Lectra is one of our own.
1, the trunk open button is placed in the position of the letter "O" at the rear of the car, which is ingenious in design. But it is not easy to be found in practical use. In addition, because it is in the negative pressure area at the rear of the car, the keys are easy to get dirty, and it is inevitable to get dirty after opening.
2. As a compact coupe SUV, Kelin 05 didn't occupy the second row space because of the slip-back design. Even though the height of both sides of my back row is 195cm, the middle seat is not suitable for long-term riding because of the cushions on both sides, the raised backrest and the higher platform.
3. The height of the trunk platform is obviously higher than that of the same class, even the higher-level Land Rover Range Rover, so it will be inconvenient to carry luggage.
4. The exercise mode is like beating chicken blood. At first, people feel very motivated, but after a long time, they will be very tired, and the feeling of pulling is not suitable for city driving.
Although the new car adopts electronic gear lever, there is no large storage space in the central passage and no basic side storage compartment.
6. For the coupe model, it is inevitable that the rearview mirror displays a small field of view, and the Link 05 is no exception. It would be greatly improved if an optional streaming rearview mirror could be provided in the future.
Although the above six points still need to be improved, for consumers of small coupe SUVs, the form can serve the design, especially when choosing this car, the above shortcomings may no longer be a problem.
Yi Ge said: For today's young people, network and interconnection are as important as air. For this reason, in the world of Lectra, cars are not only props in life, but also carry personal lifestyles.
"Born for sharing, simple operation and zero burden" means that with the continuous development of technology and network, cars with a history of 100 years have subverted tradition. In the near future, we have reason to believe that Lectra will win the hearts of more consumers through its own changes.
