(1) What is their market situation?
Mercedes-Benz GLB sales are actually not very good, in the past six months a total of more than 22,000 units sold, this sales than the Lincoln Adventurer next door less than the next door, the biggest reason is the full range of 1.3T engines, has been hot on the Internet.
But you also don't think that people who buy 1.3T GLB are stupid for more money, although the GLB pricing is more than 300,000, but the previous all the discounts were above 50,000. The last batch of 1.3T low-power offers even reached 70,000, and the minimum 180 dynamic bare cars only needed 220,000. Are you a little moved by this? Unfortunately, that batch has already sold out. However, now 200 still has more than 50,000 discounts, and 220, which has just been listed for a long time, has 20,000 discounts.
Audi Q5L sales in the last six months have been good, with more than 60,000 units sold, second only to toyota Highlander, and 4,000 more than BMW X3. At present, the whole series of discounts is about 17 points, and several configurations of 40T are not much more expensive than the 2.0T GLB after landing.
(2) Which configuration has the best sales volume and what is the landing price?
At present, the BEST SELLING OF THE GLB 2.0T IS THE 220 FASHION MODEL, WHICH IS NOW OFFERED ABOUT 20,000. Taking this version as an example, the full amount landed about 354,700 yuan.
At present, the best selling Q5L is the 40T luxury dynamic type, with a discount of about 70,600. Taking this version as an example, the full amount landed about 386,800 yuan.
(3) How should I choose their configuration?
GLB currently has 5 configurations, 200 configurations of 1.3T and 3 2.0T. The difference between 2.0T and 1.3T is now about 40,000, so it is recommended to buy 2.0T GLB, although it cost 40,000 more, but bought dignity and confidence. The 2.0T version recommends choosing the stylish type in the middle, which has more 19-inch rims than the dynamic type, the third row of seats, the front seat heating, and the rear row of two Type-connectors, but the price is only 7,000 yuan more expensive.
Although the 220 four-wheel drive version has more than a timely four-wheel drive system, keyless entry, remote start, fog lights and privacy glass than the fashion type, the price is 15,300 more expensive, in fact, the cost performance is not high.
At present, Q5L has two different styles to choose from, one elegant and one dynamic, it is obvious that the dynamic shape is more sporty, the original Q5L modeling and interior are somewhat greasy, plus the sports appearance of the decoration will look better.
As for the configuration, although the low-end fashion is completely enough, but the luxury has a lot of comfortable configurations, such as:
Lane departure warning system, automatic parking entry, induction trunk, keyless entry for the whole vehicle, heated front seats, 30-color mood lights, automatic anti-glare interior and exterior mirrors, etc.
If there are more than 300,000 first-line luxury brands landing on the ground, it is not very embarrassing if they do not even have mood lights, keyless entry and seat heating. Therefore, the 415,800 40T luxury dynamic type is the most cost-effective configuration in the whole series.
(4) How are they powered?
Mercedes-Benz GLB now uses 2.0T, which is actually the low-power version of the M260 2.0T engine on the previous domestic A220L, with a maximum power of 190 horsepower and a maximum torque of 300 Nm. After the tuning of the AMG department, the ultra-high power version of the M260 is the engine of the AMG35 series.
Therefore, the GLB power performance of the M260 is definitely much better than that of the 1.3T. And the 2.0T uses an 8-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, which is the same as the AMG A45, so the gearbox will change gears faster and the reliability will be better.
The Audi Q5L 40T's 2.0T EA888 engine has the same maximum power as the GLB220, with 190 hp, but with a maximum torque of 20 Nm more. However, the Q5L is a little heavier than the GLB, but with the blessing of the Quattro Ultra's timely four-wheel drive, the start should be similar to the two-wheel drive version of the GLB220.
This DL382 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission on this generation of Q5L is a bit crotch-pulling, and abnormal noises and setbacks are commonplace, and some owners even have to replace the clutch less than a month after lifting the car. Moreover, the maximum torque that this gearbox can withstand is only about 400 Nm, and the engine potential of the EA888 is very large, which can be easily changed to more than 300 horsepower, but it is this gearbox that really pulls the crotch, limiting the modification potential of the Q5L.
However, when it comes to driving experience, the Q5L is definitely better than the GLB in terms of handling and driving texture. First of all, the Q5L is a longitudinal engine layout, plus the whole series of four-wheel drive, the body weight distribution of the whole vehicle is more reasonable. The GLB220 is only a front-drive platform for the transverse engine, the front of the car will be heavier, and the whole series is only equipped with a four-wheel drive system on the top.
Secondly, the Q5L level is higher and the material is more sufficient, so the sound insulation of the whole vehicle will be better. Therefore, although the price difference between the two cars is only 30,000, they are completely different in their bones.
(5) Maintenance costs and cycles
The maintenance of Mercedes-Benz GLB can refer to GLA, the cycle is 10,000 kilometers or a year, the small maintenance cost of 1.3T models is 836 yuan, and the oil + machine filter + man-hour cost is. The big maintenance is in twenty thousand kilometers, about 1996 yuan.
The cost of small maintenance of Audi Q5L is 1800 yuan, and the cost of large maintenance is 25,000 kilometers, which is about 2600 yuan.
(6) Write at the end
The Mercedes-Benz GLB220 and Audi Q5L 40T cost similarly, but the two cars are completely different classes of products. To put it simply, one is a hardcover small three-bedroom, and the other is a simple two-bedroom. Pay attention to the product force itself, naturally choose Q5L, more space, better materials and higher levels are the highlights.
Those who choose GLB pay more attention to brand power and design. Although the GLB is one level lower than the Q5L, the interior design of the GLB does have to dump the Q5L a few streets, and after looking at the interior of the GLB and then looking at the Q5L, it is not the design of the same era at all.
And THE GLB is currently within 1 million, mercedes-benz only 7-seat SUV, but also the only BBA 1 million less than 7-seat SUV, which is also one of its biggest highlights. So less than 400,000 buy BBA SUVs, Mercedes-Benz GLBs and Audi Q5L what will you choose?
