At the Guangzhou Auto Show at the end of November, I saw the true face of the new generation of QX60 at the Infiniti booth, but unfortunately the itinerary was too rushed that day, only a glimpse of the part, there was no time to sit in the car to feel it.
At that time, the first impression of the QX60 was only the word atmospheric, which was basically the same as the design of the overseas version, and this huge body shape brought it a powerful aura.
In mid-December, the QX60 officially opened pre-sale, and the car immediately became the focus of hot discussion on the Internet. Because of the public opinion caused by the spokesperson's overturning, the yin and yang errors have also earned a lot of attention for QX60, coupled with the pre-sale price of 450,000-660,000 yuan, so that netizens are discussing, whether QX60 is worth this price?
From December 29th to 30th, Automotive Intelligence New Media conducted an in-depth experience of QX60 in Chongzuo, Guangxi, shouting out that this car that is "luxurious in the East and extraordinary in the realm" can only understand its charm after experiencing it.
Oriental luxury is not out of thin air
Stepping out of Nanning Airport, a QX60 slowly approached. Pick-up partner warm welcome, open the electric tailgate, put the trunk in the trunk, take a look, the trunk of the 6-seat layout is also quite spacious, put a lot of luggage is not a problem.
Thinking that Nanning Airport is still two and a half hours away from the destination, it is natural to sit in the second row and have a good feeling. It is said that Infiniti's seat is more comfortable than the sofa, QX60 did not disappoint me, Maybach with the same leather seat that is both face and comfortable, even the carpet is used in good materials, there are actually privacy sun blinds, with 17 speakers BOSE Performance to the best series of audio. As soon as I got into the QX60 car, I was given a chance to get off the horse.
At this time, I understood why the 6-seat medium and large SUV had recently become so popular. Independent armrests, wide horizontal space, flat floor, these are 7 SUVs, or even 5 large SUV can not give you. In particular, the QX60's wide seat design, as well as the ergonomic zero-pressure concept, running long distances is really not tired, which is strongly recommended that you experience it yourself.
Some people may care about the seating space in the third row. I also experienced this in the dynamic test drive session the next day. Since the QX60 has achieved 5127/2005/1767mm in length, width and height, and a wheelbase of 2900mm, thanks to such data as a support, its third row is at a completely acceptable level.
In terms of the author's 175cm/80kg block, after adjusting the space in the second row, there is still a good riding space, both horizontally and vertically. Of course, it's certainly not realistic to say that the comfort of the MPV model is like that, but if you don't pick the bones in the egg, the space of the QX60 is really quite good.
Take a look at the materials and details of the QX60, which is where it pays homage to the hat. First, the materials used in the car are quite elaborate, almost all places are noble leather wrapping, and there are diamond-shaped hand-stitched threads and double-layer soundproof laminated glass in the front and rear rows; the second is that the details are very intimate, such as the air conditioning control area is not an unfriendly touch screen, but with vibration feedback. Coupled with the massage buttons on the main passenger seat, it can be used at any time, which is very convenient.
Of course, the technology configuration is also a highlight of the QX60. 12.3-inch full LCD HD 3D instrument cluster + 10.8-inch head-up display system + 12.3-inch central control screen, coupled with the newly upgraded ProPILOT L2 level intelligent driver assistance system, can be described as a one-time pile of young people's needs, which is considered to be the first echelon of localization in luxury brands.
Driving is all over the place
This big guy who is more than 5 meters long and weighs 2 tons actually doesn't feel bulky at all. If it weren't for the fact that I was driving a medium-sized SUV, I would have had the brisk feeling of driving an ordinary A-Class sedan in a trance.
Think about it carefully, for the target consumers who buy 6/7-seat medium and large luxury SUVs, it is not the pursuit of this comfort, which shows that QX60 understands the demands of target consumers very well.
Of course, this 2.0T VC-Turbo engine is really not a vegetarian, and this engine that can output 185kW maximum power and 376N·m maximum torque can not only bring a good driving experience, but also make the whole vehicle have a low fuel consumption of 100 kilometers. This is all thanks to its world-first variable compression ratio technology, which can be switched freely between 8:1 and 14:1 compression ratios, combining fuel economy and power output to accommodate a variety of driving styles.
Intuitively, the torque of this 2.0T engine in the middle and low speed range is completely enough, and there is basically no problem in meeting the daily urban transportation, and it can cope with most situations within 2500rpm. When it comes to the highway, when it is necessary to accelerate overtaking, the 9AT transmission from ZF also performs very well, and the logic of the gear shift and the shift action are in line with the driver's expectations.
Here, I would like to give special praise to the QX60's driving texture and sound insulation level. First, the comfort of the ride is very good, the adjustment of the shock absorber is relatively soft, and the vibration on the road surface can be almost completely filtered, even if some vibration is introduced into the car, it will be absorbed by the soft seat. In particular, we passed a section of unpaved paved road with karst landforms, which can better reflect the chassis strength of the QX60 and a certain degree of off-road performance, to be honest, the surprises are far more than imagined.
The second is thanks to the above-mentioned costless configuration, such as the four windows that are all double-layer laminated glass, various sound insulation cotton and ANC active noise reduction system, so that wind noise and road noise control are relatively in place, in addition to the sound is relatively noisy when pulling high speed overtaking, other noise basically will not affect comfort.
By the way, the author also experienced the ProPILOT L2 level intelligent driver assistance system on the highway, thanks to 10 sonar probes, 6 cameras and 3 millimeter wave radar, relying on the full speed segment intelligent cruise system (ICC with full speed range), lane keeping assistance system (LKA), traffic congestion assistance system (TJP) and many other driving assistance functions, can achieve intelligent car following, curve holding, automatic start and stop within 3 seconds, etc. To a certain extent, it liberates the driver's feet and reduces the driving pressure.
【Conclusion】Based on the above content, whether it is a static sense of atmosphere or a good texture of driving, the Infiniti QX60 is a good car that people clap and praise. At this moment, let's look at the questions raised by some netizens, has the quality of domestic QX60 shrunk? What about the 9AT power? Perhaps after you personally go to the depth of the experience, there will be a clear answer, as the author has always said, the domestic QX60 and what I think in my head, really different!
