About 120,000, starting with 177 horsepower + 6AT, young people buy cars, these 3 are reliable and cost-effective!

The main force of buying cars now is obviously young consumer groups. Whether they are office workers or starting their own businesses, they all need a scooter that can shelter from wind and rain. Of course, young people generally don’t have much savings in their hands. Naturally, they won’t choose too expensive a car. Basically, the price of a car is around 120,000, and it’s enough if it lands within 150,000. Therefore, in this issue, we will introduce a few three sedans with a starting price of about 120,000, 177 horsepower and 6 AT, with high appearance and large space, hoping to be helpful to friends who are choosing a car.

The first was a brand new Ford Focus.

Focus is also considered a veteran model. It used to be the first car for many young people, but due to various reasons, Focus was gradually forgotten. However, now Focus can be described as the return of the king. The guide price of the 2022 model is 119,800 to 145,800, and the price is not high. The recommended model is the entry-level version of the 2022 EcoBoost 180 automatic racing version with a guide price of 129,800.

The appearance of the new Focus is eye-catching. Although the overall design tends to be fashionable and dynamic, it is a little more stable and majestic. Especially the front face, which is larger in size, and the blackened center grille, coupled with the sharp LED headlights, is undoubtedly the favorite of young people. The side lines are smooth, and the 16-inch tires are small in size, but the multi-spoke shape is very attractive, and the wheels are also blackened. The sedan has a length of 4664mm, a width of 1824mm, and a wheelbase of 2705mm. All data are comparable to models such as Sylphy and Lavida, and the space will naturally not disappoint.

In fact, the biggest advantage of the new Focus is undoubtedly the three major components. In terms of power, it is equipped with a 1.5T four-cylinder engine with a maximum horsepower of 177 horsepower and a peak torque of 243 Nm, matched with a 6AT gearbox. The zero-to-hundred acceleration time of this set of power is only 7.9 seconds, which is close to some 2.0T models. It has strong performance and low fuel consumption. The actual measurement is basically between 7.5-8, which is completely acceptable.

Of course, the new Focus also has some problems. On the one hand, the sound insulation of the vehicle is a bit poor, and it does not meet the standards of traditional American cars. It is mainly tire noise and wind noise. It is okay to drive in urban areas, but it is noisy when the speed is around 80, but this price can only be so . Secondly, there are no air outlets in the rear row, and the same is true for top models, so it is not comfortable to sit in the rear row in summer.

The next model to be introduced is also very cost-effective, and that is the domestically produced Geely Xingrui.

Although Xingrui is positioned as a compact family sedan, its strength is not inferior to a joint venture mid-level car of a higher level. The guide price of 113,700-152,700 is very low, and the terminal still has a discount of about 5,000. The recommended model 2021 2.0TD luxury model has a guide price of 123,700, and the actual reference price is less than 120,000.

One of Xingrui's advantages is naturally the size and space. The length of the car is close to 4.8 meters, and the wheelbase is 2.8 meters. And in terms of comfort, Xingrui did not disappoint. The seat is made of thick materials, and it feels good to sit on. The backrest has a curved design, which can be adjusted at multiple angles. This configuration is only available in China. Other features such as front and rear parking radar, panoramic sunroof, 7-inch LCD screen, 8-speaker audio, one-key lift and lower windows of the whole car, and rear exhaust vents are all standard configurations, and low-end cars are similar to high-end joint ventures.

In fact, the biggest advantage of Xingrui is the powertrain. Equipped with a 2.0T low-power engine with a maximum horsepower of 190 horsepower and a peak torque of 320 Nm, it is matched with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox. The zero-to-hundred-acceleration time of this set of power is the same as that of Focus, which is 7.9 seconds, but the advantage of large displacement lies in continuous acceleration in the rear, especially at high speeds. The advantage of large displacement is very obvious. Even if the speed exceeds 110, as long as you are willing to refuel , still has a steady stream of power. As for the fuel consumption, the owner measured an average of about 8.2 liters per 100 kilometers, which is already very good for such a size and a curb weight of 1.5 tons. But it is a pity that 95 gasoline must be added, which is also a controversial point of Xingrui at present. If adding 92 gasoline is enough, the sales will definitely increase a lot.

Of course, Xingrui also has many shortcomings. First of all, the tire noise is a bit loud, and the road surface is very picky. If you encounter a bad road, the tire noise will be louder, which is related to the tires. You can consider replacing silent tires later. Secondly, the car machine is not very easy to use, the response is slow and occasionally the black screen will freeze, and the displacement of 2.0T is only given to a 50L fuel tank, which is smaller than that of the Focus. It will be perfect if it can be upgraded to about 60L in the future.

The last model to be introduced is the style of Guangqi Honda.

As a very young model, many people may not know that Xingge is actually a sister model of Civic, which is also Honda's usual dual-car strategy. The guide price of Xingge is 129,900 to 166,900, which is slightly higher, but the terminal discount is better than that of Civic, which is basically more than 15,000. The recommended model is the 2022 240TURBO CVT technology version, with a guide price of 142,900, and the actual reference price after the discount is less than 130,000.

The stylish appearance is still very interesting. The front of the car is relatively conservative, with a slightly flat design. Unfortunately, the width of the car is only 1.8 meters, which does not look imposing. I personally like the side view very much, thanks to the car length of nearly 4.7 meters, plus the smooth and dynamic waistline, double five-spoke wheels, it looks very sporty. The interior design is very simple, a 10.2-inch full LCD instrument is a highlight, but the 9-inch central control screen is too small in size, which does not look very coordinated.

However, the power of style is undoubtedly the focus of many people's choices. The equipped 1.5T engine has a maximum horsepower of 182 horsepower and a peak torque of 240 Nm, and is matched with a CVT continuously variable transmission. The measured zero-to-hundred acceleration of this set of power is in the early 8 seconds. Considering the needs of household use, the overall tuning is relatively conservative. In terms of fuel consumption, it is basically around 7.5 per 100 kilometers, which is still very economical.

Of course, there are many places where the character is not enough. On the one hand, the chassis is a bit low. Although the handling can be improved, the passability is poor. When passing speed bumps or walking on bad roads, the speed must be slowed down to avoid hitting the chassis. Secondly, the platform in the middle of the rear row is a bit high, the paint is too thin, it is easy to scratch when washing the car, and the primer is easy to be exposed by slight bumps.

Comments: The above three family sedans are very powerful. Geely Xingrui is undoubtedly the most cost-effective. It is equipped with a 2.0T engine at a price of less than 120,000. As a new car, Focus has three major advantages: handsome appearance, flexible handling, low fuel consumption, and no problem for household transportation. The style continues the reputation of the Civic. The three major components are stable and reliable, with low fuel consumption and large space. So, which of the three cars above would you choose?
