The compact SUV market has always been a must-fight for the military, and the competition in the joint venture brand compact SUV market is even more intense. When many friends plan to buy a compact urban SUV, in addition to emphasizing the appearance and practicality, the flexibility, safety and quality-price ratio of the vehicle are also the factors that consumers pay more attention to when buying a car. Today we will select two relatively good joint venture compact SUVs for you, namely the new Peugeot 4008 of the French brand and the Honda Haoying of the Japanese brand, let's take a look at who is more worth choosing?
In terms of appearance, both cars have adopted a family design, but it is undeniable that French cars are a clear stream in the current automobile industry, not only have a French sense of refinement, but also personalized trend design is closer to the aesthetics of young users. The new Peugeot 4008 Lion Roar front face adopts star-moving dot matrix borderless grille, sharp lion's eye LED headlights, fang-type LED daytime running lights, lion's claw LED taillights, etc., plus a tribute to the classic font and the little lion logo, the French fashion and elegant design is impeccable.
As the sister model of Dongfeng Honda CR-V, the overall design of Haoying is a calm and home style. The thick chrome trim strips on the front face are well integrated with the headlight groups on both sides, although it looks more overall, but compared to the new Peugeot 4008, it lacks some personalized design and fashion, which is slightly bland.
On the side of the body, the new Peugeot 4008 adopts a hidden B/C/D pillar design to create a suspended roof effect, and the lion's claw taillights are 3D effect and blackened design, which is highly recognizable. The new Peugeot 4008 also features an 18-inch two-tone aluminum alloy wheel with a diamond cut process, which brings higher passability while also making the overall look more sporty. The side of Haoying does not use too many lines, the visual effect is more rounded and full, and the chrome trim is used at the edge of the window to embellish, which enhances the sense of refinement. The tires are equipped with 17-inch blackened rims, which are not as textured as the Peugeot 4008 in styling.
Through parameter comparison, Haoying has a slight advantage in length, width and height, but in terms of wheelbase, Peugeot 4008 is more dominant, and the wheelbase performance of 2730mm has reached the same level of leadership, creating a good space performance for the rear row.
In terms of interior, the new Peugeot 4008 still adopts the sci-fi style of "i-Cockpit cockpit". The small racing-style multi-function steering wheel, piano buttons and yacht-style electronic gear shift mechanism, the scorpion tail form center console under the bionic aesthetic design, with the double-layer central control shape, not only realizes the perfect combination of function and shape, but also brings passengers a sci-fi feeling like being in the cockpit of an airplane. In addition, the burgundy seats look more advanced, and the stitching is clearly described, creating a certain sense of luxury. The interior of Haoying is still very Honda, and the overall design is much more traditional.
Let's take the Peugeot 400THP Creative Edition and the Haoying 240TURBO CVT two-wheel drive elite edition two cars to make an intuitive comparison, to see who has more strength in the two cars?
In terms of active/passive safety, both vehicles are equipped with tire pressure monitoring and basic vehicle safety configuration functions, but the Peugeot 4008 400THP Edition is also equipped with front side airbags, front/rear head airbags, and fatigue driving reminder functions on this basis. In terms of auxiliary configuration, the Peugeot 4008 400THP Creator Edition is also more user-friendly, equipped with practical functions such as rear parking radar, reversing image, engine start and stop.
In terms of multimedia configuration, the Peugeot 4008 400THP Creator Edition is equipped with a 12.3-inch full LCD meter and a 10-inch touch LCD screen, and can support CarLife mobile phone interconnection, which is very good in terms of display effect and sense of technology. Haoying 240TURBO CVT two-wheel drive Elite Edition is equipped with a 7-inch LCD instrument and a 5-inch central control screen, and the overall UI design is much inferior to that of the Peugeot 4008.
In terms of seat configuration, the Peugeot 4008 400THP Chuangxiang Edition is equipped with a leather-like seat and supports the electric adjustment of the main/passenger seat, and the co-pilot also supports high and low adjustment, and the Haoying 240TURBO CVT two-wheel drive elite version does not have this function. Not only that, peugeot 4008 400THP Chuangxiang Edition is also equipped with a one-key lift function for the window of the whole car, an electric folding/heating/locking automatic folding function of the exterior mirror, an induction wiper, automatic air conditioning, temperature partition control, and a PM2.5 filter device in the car, which further brings users a more comfortable travel experience. It can be seen from this that Haoying still has a certain gap in terms of scientific and technological sense and humanized configuration, after all, in the current competitive market, no excellent product power will be slowly eliminated.
Finally, let's look at the power part, the Peugeot 4008 400THP Chuangxiang Edition is equipped with a 1.8T turbocharged engine with a maximum output of 155 kW and a maximum output torque of 300 Nm. Matching is the Aisin 8-speed automatic transmission imported from Japan. It is worth mentioning that the 1.8T engine adopts dual continuous variable valve timing technology, a new electronically controlled turbocharger, and a new generation of chain drive timing system, which increases the power by 10 to 15% and reduces fuel consumption by more than 7% compared with the previous generation engine; it is the first to meet the National VI B emission standards.
In addition, as we all know, the chassis of the French car has always had a good reputation in the automotive industry, and the Peugeot 4008 400THP Creation Edition is equipped with Peugeot CLDR master chassis tuning, so that the car has a racing-grade handling performance. At the same time, the Peugeot 4008 body adopts a high-strength steel with a maximum of 1600MPa, which can be called a high-strength body of the space capsule class, and the proportion of high-strength steel used in the vehicle has reached 73%. Such a high-strength body structure can ensure that the vehicle obtains higher stability in the intense driving state, and when combined with the master chassis, it is simply "like a lion adding wings".
The Haoying 240TURBO CVT two-wheel drive Elite Edition is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 142 kW and a maximum torque of 243 Nm. Matched is the CVT CVT continuously variable transmission. From the perspective of parameter comparison, the Peugeot 4008 400THP Premium Edition is better than the Haoying 240TURBO CVT two-wheel drive Elite Edition.
From the perspective of the price level that consumers care about, the official direct price of Peugeot 4008 400THP Chuangxiang Edition is 167,700 yuan, and at present, car buyers can also enjoy a number of car purchase benefits, including 3 years 65% value preservation repurchase, 5 years /150,000 km vehicle warranty, 5 years and 6 basic maintenance (including the first guarantee), 2000 yuan car purchase gift, 7000 yuan replacement subsidy, etc., which can be said to be full of sincerity. In addition, the car is sold in the form of network direct sales, and users can order online through the official mini program "Dongfeng Peugeot Lion King Alliance" and pick up the car offline in 4S stores. The official guidance price of haoying 240TURBO CVT two-wheel drive elite edition is 179,800 yuan, and the terminal discount is not much.
After a comprehensive comparison, the new Peugeot 4008 undoubtedly has obvious advantages over Haoying in terms of model design, interior, configuration or power part. Secondly, the excellent driving performance and master chassis tuning of the new Peugeot 4008 also surpass Haoying to bring a more comfortable and stable driving experience, and interested friends may wish to pay attention to it.
