Early this morning, Chongqing Gaojin officially announced the price of the GK500 climbing version, the price of 37800 yuan is 3,000 yuan more expensive than the basic version, the other day I talked to you about the GK500 climbing version of the model, today we look at the official data, climbing version in the end what is more!
The first is the change in color, the GK500 Climbing Edition has added a unique streamer gold to open up the gap in appearance with the other two versions.
The second is a slight change in style, because the climbing version has a more off-road flavor, so a small windshield is added to the front of the car, a metal cover is added to the headlights, and the off-road style front fender is replaced, the larger size of the front tire, and there is a small number plate on the side of the body.
The handlebars are widened and raised on top of the original, with faster steering and greater amplitude, making them more suitable for riding in the wild, while providing a more comfortable riding triangle.
Because of the larger size of the front wheel, the piston diameter of the front brake caliper has also increased, and the manufacturer advertises that the front brake braking force has increased by 35%, and the brake caliper is still provided by Xihu.
The front 19 inches and the rear 17 inches of external wire spoke wheels are more resistant to impact in off-road conditions, and with Pirelli scorpion tires, off-road performance is improved a lot.
The front and rear adjustable KYB shock absorption extends the shock absorption stroke, the front shock absorption stroke is 150 mm, the rear shock stroke is 63 mm, with a minimum ground clearance of 200 mm, the passability is quite powerful.
The original climbing version is equipped with a stainless steel tank guard to maximize the protection of the water tank in the field conditions, and this water tank guard is also designed with classic X elements.
For the use of the climbing version, the GK500 readjusts Bosch's E-JET, which is said to increase the output of torque, a 486cc displacement twin-cylinder engine, a sliding clutch as standard, and a 35kw/43Nm output data remains unchanged.
Rubber non-slip pads have been added to the side of the fuel tank to increase leg adhesion, but the 13.5L fuel tank has not changed, and the weight of 190kg is also consistent with the crossover version.
In general, the GK500 climbing version is based on the crossover version, which has made a relatively large enhancement to off-road performance, especially the ability to pass and adapt to bad roads. The adjustment of the appearance is actually not big, if you have a strong demand for off-road, and like this retro style of tuning, in fact, GK500 climbing version is also a very good choice, but these changes are not worth 3000 pieces, you have to weigh it yourself.
