Kay Chen Xing is really a comfort-oriented car. The power performance of the whole vehicle is not bad. It is equipped with a 48V light mixing system, which has excellent ride comfort and very soft suspension. Close to the wheelbase of a medium-sized SUV, the comfort and space in the back row are excellent, and the "large seat" of the co-pilot is its biggest selling point. For her daughter-in-law, it is definitely the top treatment of VIP.
If you want to get a share in the highly competitive compact SUV market, you have to come up with some real skills now. Kay Chen Xing is different from the past in all aspects, and has a different way from Zhilian Technology in comfort. As a brand-new beginning of Dongfeng Qichen, it integrates the international team and technology of Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance, and is equipped with VSA intelligent module architecture independently developed by Dongfeng Nissan Technology Center. Morning Star is its first model. In addition to the extreme comfort in the same class, it is really my first time to contact the AR intelligent real-life navigation system evolved from plane navigation.
Judging from the design of Kay Chen Xing, its features can make you unforgettable, which is officially called "mixed aesthetics". The V-Galaxy Galaxy in the starry sky, the V-shape and the surrounding lattice galaxy are highly recognizable, and it has become a brand-new family element of Dongfeng Qichen. Venus's air intake grille is also AGS variable air intake.
Kay Chen Xing didn't use sharp design, but adopted a fuller, thicker, more robust and full of tension contour, with a strong sense of edges and corners. The length, width and height are 46,965,438+0/65,438+0,905/65,438+706 mm, respectively, and the wheelbase is 2,756 mm. As a compact SUV, the wheelbase is close to that of a medium-sized SUV, which looks bigger, and the interior seating space has become a great advantage.
The white body is matched with a black roof, and the window is decorated with a silver chrome frame, which looks very futuristic.
Through the taillights, both sides extend downward. The internal light band also crosses left and right, which looks very individual.
Kay Chen Xing's interior also looks unusual. 15.6 inch vertical large screen runs through the central control, which has caught up with the screen size of home desktop PC. The black piano paint panel and the silver decoration across the left and right are also more concise and transparent.
The interior is black and white, and the white part of the car is all wrapped in leather, which feels great. The diamond-shaped stitching also makes this car look more classy.
The instrument adopts 12.3 inch LCD screen with three display themes, and the UI design is very scientific.
AR intelligent navigation based on real scenes is its biggest feature. It can display the image taken by the front camera on the instrument screen, and directly mark the driving direction with arrows according to the distance of the intersection. This intuitive way makes it difficult for you to miss any intersection.
15.6 inch central control large screen, the big picture from top to bottom looks as refreshing as Tesla. There are more interfaces that can pop up below it, and functions such as voice control, car networking, online music and real-time navigation are all gathered in it. In addition to the commonly used app, Kai Chen Xing also provides a set of exclusive Kai Chenxi radio station, and voice control can distinguish the wake-up calls and commands from the four seats.
On off-road roads, you can watch 360-degree panoramic images from more perspectives. For example, whether there are big stones under the front of the car and on the left and right wheels can be switched by the central control big screen, which is quite convenient for taking some "bad roads".
The main driver's seat is very soft and thick, which completely conforms to Kay Chen Xing's comfortable positioning and is not very wrapped. Both drivers and passengers adopt 6-way adjustment and 4-way waist adjustment, which makes it easier to find a sitting position that suits them.
The "female throne" of the co-pilot is the biggest highlight of the whole car. The seat has a retractable leg rest, which is a bit like Weilai. Especially in long-distance rides. In addition, the passenger seat also has a massage function, which is definitely the highest care for your daughter-in-law.
With a daughter-in-law, of course, we should also consider the feelings of our father-in-law. As a compact SUV, Kay Chen Xing is almost close to the wheelbase of a neutral SUV, which makes its rear row space very spacious, the seat supports 4:6 reclining and multi-stage backrest angle adjustment, and it is as soft as its own sofa, which is also very suitable for the elderly at home. The large space is also convenient for placing children's seats.
The function control area in the back row can not only adjust the air conditioner independently, but also adjust the sound system. If the young people in the front row want to listen to pop music, the father-in-law in the back row can switch to Beijing Opera with one click.
Covered pillows in the back seat are usually adopted by many luxury cars. Better support for the head to avoid the head from slipping back when the vehicle is driving violently.
Kay Chen Xing's human-computer interaction and comfortable configuration are definitely the biggest highlights of the vehicle. Let me also talk about its driving experience. My test drive route is still in the mountainous area, from Beijing downtown to Juyongguan, and then to Yanqing Baili Gallery, including expressway and Panshan Highway. This car is equipped with 1.5T power, 48V light mixing, and the maximum power can reach 190 horsepower. With the 7-speed power shift, the overall performance is still very good. Sufficient power, smooth and linear adjustment, no obvious sense of suddenness when accelerating.
Due to the mixed light effect of 48V, the frustration of shifting is almost imperceptible. However, when you release the throttle, compared with the sliding of the traditional fuel car, the power recovery can still feel a certain sense of mopping the floor, but at the same time it also effectively reduces fuel consumption. In the fierce driving on mountain roads, the fuel consumption can be controlled within 8L, which is already an excellent performance for a medium-sized SUV.
The driving style of the whole vehicle is Buddhist, and the power is more abundant when the speed is above 3000 rpm. The ride comfort performance of this 1.5T power can better match the comfortable orientation of the whole vehicle, and it looks as smooth as natural inhalation at a larger displacement.
Kay Chen Xing's suspension adopts multi-link type after McPherson, and the emphasis on comfort can be regarded as a continuation of Nissan's concept of "moving big sofa". The suspension is very soft, especially on off-road roads. It feels very soft, tough and textured. The assembly process of the whole vehicle is good without abnormal sound, which also reflects the good technical strength behind it.
The comfort of Kay Chen Xing does have great advantages, but it is still a typical feature of SUV when driving. Although the steering virtual position is not obvious, the steering force is very light, and I am still not used to eccentric motion adjustment. However, in urban driving, lighter turns will also make people feel more relaxed and more friendly to female drivers.
The soft suspension also has a certain inclination in steering, unlike many SUVs now. Compared with the "driver's car" advertised by many automobile brands, Qichen is more like a "passenger car".
For me who is single, I can buy a car according to my own preferences, and the money is in my own hands. Maybe these advantages of Kay Chen Xing don't appeal to me. If one day I have a family, my way of thinking may be completely changed. Many performance owners who play AMG and rs have now "collapsed" and replaced them with a Toyota Erffa. When you buy the morning star with the money for Civic, it is also a change from a warm-blooded youth to a good man at home.
