The first sight of MG5 gave me a sense of sight of Elantra.
The same fierce front face, the same dynamic back-sliding shape, the difference is that compared with the seven-generation Elantra, which emphasizes the geometric sense of gem cutting, MG5 pays more attention to streamlined smoothness.
The front face shows the word "fighting sense" from the front without reservation. 1.6 meter wide grid adopts shark mouth design, occupying almost two-thirds of the front face.
Just looking at the design language of the front face, I believe that many "old drivers" who have seen countless cars will see some shadows of Aston Martin. In my opinion, this design concept of large-size mesh appears in many performance vehicles, not simply for fierceness, but because the advantages of air intake and heat dissipation brought by larger wind impact area have become an inevitable trend. This design of MG5 cannot be simply considered as "plagiarism" or "imitation". After all, young users' yearning and love for sports appearance are often blocked by the "unattainable" price threshold, and the visual experience that the price of MG 50,000 yuan can bring to these users can satisfy their yearning for the positioning of the "first car".
Headlights composed of three-level LED light groups are not only sharp in shape, but also have three functions of daytime running lights, position lights and turn signals like eyeliner bars.
Looking around, everyone calls the beautiful woman with beautiful skeleton "eight-headed body", and our MG5 is not too much. We use "seven heads" to interpret the unique artistic sense of automobile body design. The length, width and height of MG5 are 4675/ 1842/ 1473mm respectively. The wheelbase is 2680mm, which is the three-dimensional size of a very standard compact car.
Like the seventh-generation Elantra, the MG5 has a rear sliding design with narrow side windows. From the appearance point of view, compared with the traditional structure in which the C-pillar descends at a large angle at the edge of the roof, the back-sliding design brings a smoother ending and is very sporty. Such as Audi A7 or Mercedes-Benz CLA and CLS all adopt this design to cope with the young and personalized market they are facing. Back to the MG5 model, such a design can be said to be very few. It can be said that the appearance of MG5 has filled the gap of 65438+ ten thousand sports vehicles. But the design of the slip back is inevitable: the head space in the back row still needs actual experience.
Slippery models and duck tails are always the best partners. The duck tail shape brought by MG5 is seamless, perfectly integrated into the body lines, and the size is just right. The taillights didn't adopt the popular penetrating design, which relieved my aesthetic fatigue to some extent. Double-sided exhaust is probably an ornament, but with the black decoration of the middle diffuser, it has a good sense of fashion and movement.
The models with a price below 65,438 438+ 10/0,000 yuan are not without beautiful shapes, but it is not too much to pay attention to details like MG5. After all, the hub is definitely an important part of the construction of a sense of movement. 17 inch two-color wheel hub has been given a resounding name by the manufacturer: polar front ice blade. To be honest, I thought it was the blade wheel hub of Audi RS5 before I saw the logo clearly. Handsome degree is self-evident.
At this point, in terms of appearance alone, MG5 is definitely worthy of the slogan of Youth Tide Run: enough youth and enough tide ~
The official name of this black and red interior is Corona Red. As a model who focuses on fashion sports, the coolness brought by black and the passion brought by red can be said to complement each other in creating an atmosphere. The central control tilts to the pilot, and the overall cockpit atmosphere gives people an excellent sense of package.
I want to give special praise to the steering wheel. The three-position steering wheel with multi-function case is not bloated at all. The blessing of red stitches makes me feel excited. Full LCD 12.3-inch instrument plus 10.25-inch full LCD central control large screen, the configuration of the interior has not shrunk.
The design on the interior of MG5 didn't disappoint me either, which was consistent with the atmosphere created by the exterior.
With so many preparations ahead, the tide rises and falls, and it has achieved the "tide". How can we talk about running without motivation?
This time, MG5 has brought us two powertrains, MEGA which emphasizes fuel economy. Tech 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, as the configuration of youth series (67,900-82,900), can reach the maximum horsepower of 120Ps at 6000 rpm and the peak torque is 150Nm. The comprehensive fuel consumption is 5.6L/ 100km(5-speed manual version) and 5.7L/ 100km for CVT continuously variable version.
It is worth mentioning that MEGA? Technology? The large speed ratio of CVT intelligent continuously variable gearbox 6.2 balances the torque range and reaches the wide speed range of traditional 6AT gearbox.
Now, do you feel cheated again? 120Ps Sorry, this prefabricated sports appearance?
Don't worry, the deluxe version of 1.5T turbocharged engine will definitely make you feel that the appearance of this car is worthy of the name.
The green luxury series (88,900-99,900 yuan) brought us MEGA? Technology? 1.5T turbocharged engine and 7-speed DCT dual clutch gearbox are golden partners. 1.5T engine has a maximum horsepower 173Ps and a peak torque of 275N·m ... The turbine it is equipped with is not the traditional mechanical exhaust gas turbocharging, and the new turbine with high response electronic control system can definitely minimize the turbine delay.
7-speed DCT wet dual clutch gearbox with 97% super high transmission efficiency. Thanks to this, the measured acceleration performance of MG5 0- 100km/h reaches about 8 seconds. As a configuration that can reach more than 80,000 yuan, the performance is really excellent.
As the first car for young users, MG5 has obvious advantages in price, but after mixing two engines and three gearboxes to produce a ***7 model, many readers may find it difficult to choose which one to choose.
The appearance, interior and performance of MG5 have been well demonstrated in previous articles, but drivers who really pursue the original sense of participation will more or less have a soft spot for manual gearboxes. From this point of view, it is really unacceptable that MG5 is only equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission in the entry-level model of 1.5L self-priming engine. Although the configuration of reversing image, reversing radar and 10.25-inch central control panel are also included in the price from 67,900 yuan to 72,900 yuan, it is a little sad that the seats such as wheels are "shrunk" from 17 inch to 16 inch and fabrics, which makes customers with relatively sufficient budgets prefer manual gear.
As for the combination of 1.5L self-priming and CVT, it seems to me that it is more in line with household attributes. The driving comfort and convenience brought by CVT's continuously variable transmission mechanism can be called very comfortable in daily use. From the price point of view, among the two configurations of 77,900-82,900, the 360 parking image, automatic parking and automatic air conditioning upgrade configuration brought by the self-priming version of 82,900 are more in line with the convenient positioning of home.
Since 88,900, it has officially entered the green luxury series, and the car equipped with 1.5T turbine engine and 7DCT gearbox has truly achieved the original "coupe attribute". In addition to power upgrade, paddle shifting, active safety system, full-speed cruise and other configurations are also constantly improving. It is worth mentioning that the 99,900 top Yamaha stereo can be said to be a pleasant surprise, which is rare in this price range.
The combination of fashionable appearance and superior performance often leads to price increase. Young people who like to pursue these two points but have insufficient budget can only sigh most of the time when faced with hundreds of thousands of joint venture models such as golf, Focus or Civic. But now with the appearance of MG5, I believe they can finally choose a favorite model.
Whether it's an entry-level model of 67,900 yuan for friends with limited budget who pursue manual driving experience, a turbine configuration for performance enthusiasts, or a 1.5L+CVT for car buyers who have a soft spot for appearance but just want to travel at home. It can be said that the market positioning of MG5 covers most of the needs of young users in the group of 65438+10,000 yuan, and also fills the gap of the brand in this price car.
Cool appearance and powerful 8-second small steel cannon, the price of more than 80 thousand, are you moved?
