With the entry of more and more car buyers, luxury mid-size cars are becoming a hot spot of competition. The triumphal brand will also welcome the admission of many heavy models. Among them, Mercedes-Benz E-Class and Volvo S90L are undoubtedly beautiful scenery that cannot be ignored.
S90L well balances the subtle relationship between introversion and heaviness, and the overall look and feel is modest and introverted, but it does not lose its sense of existence. Raytheon's hammer headlights create enough clarity and identifiability. The strong and compact streamline is humbly hidden by the rounded rectangular posture all over the car body, just like a gentleman in a suit who often goes to the gym, polite and with an aura of not being angry and arrogant. Viking tomahawk taillights also exude a distinctive fashion texture. Although the recommended model "2020 T4 Zhixing Deluxe Edition" is low-key, it has no "beggar feeling" as a whole, and visual elements such as large-area metal chrome plating are preserved.
Strong sense of harmony, this is my first impression when I saw this generation of Mercedes-Benz E-Class. The front design is eye-catching and elegant. The front face of the metal tiger used in the recommended model "E300 L" is not as fierce as BMW's kidney and Audi's big mouth, but it is not angry, friendly and natural, but more in line with the "atmosphere" recognized by China consumers.
The side lines are soft and elegant, and the bright metal chrome-plated window lines and L-shaped extended logo also show considerable extravagance. Cigar-style rear-end style, restrained and unobtrusive, but also shows good elegance through straight taillights.
S90L embodies a kind of intelligent irrigation. High-grade materials such as leather, solid wood and metal are laid out by designers in a restrained manner, which is gentle and restrained, creating an unconscious relaxation for car owners. The air quality inside the car is second to none in the same class, which is also the most charming place of this interior. The combination of high-grade elements such as large-area solid wood and leather does not get dull and old-fashioned, but collides with fresh elements such as large-area central control touch screen and full LCD instrument panel, which is beautiful and modern enough.
For the whole vehicle, it is recommended that "2020 T4 Zhixing Deluxe Edition" has the same screen size as the high-profile model and is equipped with the same touch screen as the high-profile model. Support car networking system and road rescue call, but only support Apple CarPlay but not Baidu CarLife.
Speaking of interior, although it is a new car that has been on the market for many years, it is a cliche, but it is still worth a special book in Mercedes-Benz E-Class. Unmodestly speaking, Mercedes-Benz perfectly combines scientific and technological elements such as large-screen lathes with luxury elements such as leather and solid wood. The fully enclosed center console and button control area also have a strong sense of integrity and elegance.
The "Flag" dual-screen car machine is full of narrative grandeur in terms of science and technology and visual range, and the built-in original factory navigation, car networking system, OTA remote upgrade and other systems are also enough for daily use.
For the understanding of ride comfort, Volvo has a unique Nordic routine. The seat is set with moderate hardness and better support, and the body is less prone to fatigue during long-distance driving. The low-profile model of "2020 T4 Zhixing Deluxe Edition" is also equipped with leather/fabric mixed seats. On the spatial level, the longer wheelbase has created enough "practical area" for S90L. Under the clear design, color matching and panoramic sunroof standard of the whole department, the atmosphere inside the car is quite stretched and open. The chair designed by orthopedic surgeons is moderate in hardness, completely fits the human body, and has reasonable support, which shows advantages in long-distance travel.
In terms of space and seat level, in terms of the new Mercedes-Benz E-Class seat space, the recommended model "E300 L" continues the consistent comfort of the Mercedes-Benz brand, and the seat filling has certain flexibility. The fenders and extended headrest pads on both sides also provide a more suitable package, and the stitching decoration brings some sporty atmosphere and quality.
On the power level, S90L recommends that "2020 T4 Zhixing Deluxe Edition" be equipped with a low-power 2.0T turbocharged engine to match Aisin 8AT gearbox. In the actual performance, the dynamic response is more natural, the overall output is smooth and meticulous, everything runs naturally, and it does not pursue a sharp downshift.
On the handling level, S90L not only ensures the most important comfort attribute of this level, but also makes the steering light and smooth. It's also quite European. The solid and stable chassis brings a full sense of subjective peace of mind, and the body responds positively to steering. Driving fast once in a while can also make you feel comfortable. In Volvo's most important safety aspect, S90L also comes standard with many active safety devices, such as active braking, adaptive cruise, lane departure warning and lane keeping.
Power and driving experience, this car just getting started will make you a little uncomfortable. This is because the impression of Mercedes-Benz E-Class at rest is extremely elegant, and its relationship with comfort has been fully released. However, in practice, this car is still relatively hard, and the actual character it turns to will make you feel a little unexpected. Specifically, as far as the E300L model recommended today is concerned, the power output of 258 horsepower is fast enough, and the 9AT gearbox is at least as good as the ZF 8AT on BMW in terms of shift speed, ride comfort and replacement logic. The overall adjustment is strong without jumping, fierce without jumping, and the throttle response is light, but it is also insulated. With a light pedal, you can complete daily overtaking, acceleration, efficiency and straightness.
At the control level, this is a "Niu Kelu". Mercedes-Benz has its own personality, and it is no longer elegant. Specifically, it is incredible that this Mercedes-Benz E-Class has a tough chassis, which can provide quite good confidence when cornering quickly, but it is also quite straightforward for the transmission of road information. Through the barrier of the cushion, you can obviously feel the bumps on the road, and your fists spread to your hips and waist.
In the handle of the steering wheel, the new Mercedes-Benz E-Class combines comfort and sportiness. The front of the car can be said to be accurate, and the feel is no longer "nothing to ask for" like the traditional Mercedes-Benz, but it selectively retains some sense of road and weight. The standard variable steering ratio of the whole system can also make the low-speed state of the vehicle more acute and the high-speed state more stable.
