1. What's the difference between the powertrains of Cadillac CT4 and Audi A4L?
Powertrain and drive system are the focus of Cadillac's publicity this time, and even the slogan of "no rear drive, no luxury" was played. Of course, Cadillac has not let everyone down in terms of power. Is it LSY? The maximum power of 2.0L turbocharged engine reaches 237 HP, and the peak torque of 350Nm explodes from 1500rpm to 4000rpm. The engine is full of low-speed torque, and it takes 6.9 seconds for the matching 8-speed automatic manual transmission to accelerate from standstill to100 km/h/h.
In terms of power, the entry-level 2020 Audi A4L has no advantage. Under the "special" adjustment, its DKU? The maximum power of the 2.0T engine is only 150 horsepower, and the peak torque is 270Nm. The matching DL382 dual clutch gearbox is specially designed by China and produced by Tianjin Volkswagen Automatic Transmission Factory. According to the owner, this gearbox has abnormal noise and jitter problems, and it is very durable. Of course, this problem not only appears on A4L, but also on A6L equipped with gearbox. In terms of powertrain, CT4 is obviously dominant. At the same time, the problem of Audi burning oil is also a problem. Car selection detectives believe that Cadillac completely wins in terms of technical content, power output and torque range.
2. Compared with Audi A4L, Cadillac CT4 is more comfortable to ride.
Cadillac ATS-L with long wheelbase is mostly complained by car owners that the rear row space is small, while the wheelbase of CT4 is exactly the same as that of short-axis ATS(2775mm) imported earlier, and the front and rear row space measured by foreign media is even smaller than that of short-axis ATS. In addition, the transmission shaft makes the floor bulge, and the rear row space is very narrow. Hard suspension training is also unfriendly to passengers, and the rear row can only be used urgently, which makes it uncomfortable to ride for a long time. A4 is not only about 100mm longer than CT4, but also has a longer wheelbase of 133mm, and the rear row is more spacious. The trunk problem of ATS-L still exists on CT4, and its capacity is only 364L, which is much smaller than A4L's 424L.
In terms of daily driving, Cadillac's fuel consumption is still high in its class. Refer to Mai Rui Bao XL with the same power? Red line, the comprehensive fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is 9- 10L, while A4L's comprehensive fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is around 8L. In addition, Cadillac claims to have no rear drive and is not luxurious, but CT4 original horse brand ProContact? RXX？ SSR energy-saving silent tire has insufficient grip, and it is easy to oversteer when driving with high horsepower in snowy or rainy days. Therefore, the car selection detective believes that if it is a family car, Audi A4L has great advantages in terms of space and daily driving comfort.
3. The brand of luxury cars and the price of civilian cars.
Although the shortcomings of the two cars are very obvious, compared with luxury brands of the same level, Audi and Cadillac have a very large discount range. There are currently 2020 CT4 entry-level models. 28T？ The price of the fashion model is 239,700 yuan, and the preferential information of the newly listed models is unknown. With reference to the discount range of ATS-L of more than 100,000 yuan in the later period, it is expected that CT4 will also have a larger discount, and it is not impossible for 1 to start. This car will truly form differentiated competition with first-line luxury brands, and even seize the market of some sports mid-size cars, such as Buick Regal and Mazda Artz.
As the Audi A4L is also a mid-term redesigned model, there is no preferential information at present. Is the entry model 2020? 35? TFSI？ The pre-sale price of fashionable and dynamic models is 308,000 yuan, which is 238,000 yuan according to the starting price of 20 19 terminal (the preferential range is about 50,000 yuan), so the car selection detective thinks that considering buying any one of them can wait for a bigger discount.
4. What's the difference between the car detective-CT4 and ATS, only changing the front and rear shapes?
ATS is built on the universal first-generation Alpha platform A 1XX, and CT4 is built on the second-generation Alpha platform A2XX. However, from the side shape of the car, the window frame and lines are almost the same, and the wheelbase is the same as that of the imported standard axis ATS, which is 2775 mm It can be seen that the frame upgrade of CT4 is not great. However, the body has been lengthened, the power is 40 horsepower less than that of ATS, and the gearbox has been upgraded from a 6-speed automatic manual to an 8-speed automatic manual.
Summary of car selection detective: Cadillac CT4 gives consumers who like rear-drive sports models a good choice, but in the China market where long wheelbase is king, these problems in the rear space are very prominent. If there is no substantial discount, it is foreseeable that it will be a situation of applauding and not being a seat. A4L is quite satisfactory and practical, but it has obvious shortcomings, low power, oil consumption and dual clutch gearbox. Car selection detectives believe that if you like sports cars, mainly for personal use rather than family cars, you can consider CT4；; If it is a family car, it is wise to choose A4L or other ordinary mid-level cars.
