200,000-300,000, large space SUV suitable for self-driving, 254 horsepower + four-wheel drive + large 6 seats, easy to drive and fuel-efficient

The 200,000-300,000-level cars are not only used for household transportation, but are basically used to improve life, such as self-driving tours on weekends or holidays. Of course, there are countless models to choose from in this price range, but not many are really suitable for home use and self-driving travel. Therefore, this issue will introduce a few 200,000-300,000, real home self-driving SUVs, 254 horsepower + four-wheel drive + large 6-seater, easy to drive and fuel-efficient.

The first is GAC Trumpchi's GS8.

Trumpchi GS8 can also be regarded as an older model, but its performance in the past was mediocre, and it was basically not taken seriously. However, today's new generation of models can be described as completely reborn, and the changes from the inside to the outside make people's eyes shine. It is recommended that the 2022 Shuangqing series 2.0TM four-wheel drive premium version has six seats, with a guide price of 246,800.

The appearance upgrade of the new-generation GS8 has won unanimous praise. Whether it is the front, side or rear of the car, it looks much more dynamic and advanced than the old model. And the size is also a circle larger, with a length of 5015mm and a wheelbase of 2920mm, comparable to medium and large SUVs, so even with a six-seater layout, the space is very spacious.

Passengers with a height of 1.73 meters sit in the second row, and the head room is about one punch, which is relatively average, but the leg room is very exaggerated. Even if the seat is adjusted to the front, there is room for one punch and four fingers, and the maximum is more than three punches . Adjust the second row to the space for two punches and sit in the third row. At this time, there is also one punch and four fingers in the leg room. However, it is a pity that the third row of GS8 has a high floor and low seats, and the sitting posture is a bit awkward after sitting on it, which is not suitable for long-term rides.

As a hybrid model, the three major parts of GS8 are also a highlight. The main body is a 2.0T turbocharged engine with a maximum horsepower of 190 horsepower and a peak torque of 320 Nm. It uses Toyota's THS hybrid system. The electric motor has a maximum horsepower of 237 horsepower and a total torque of 391 Nm. There is also an electric four-wheel drive system blessing. This set of power is still very strong, and it is more than enough to pull this big guy with a curb weight of 2.12 tons. What's more important is the fuel consumption performance. The measured average is about 7.2 liters per 100 kilometers, which is indeed very low compared with the fuel consumption of more than 10 liters for the fuel version. In addition, it only drinks 92 gasoline, which can meet the needs of home driving.

The next model to talk about is Geely's Lynk & Co 09.

As Geely's flagship SUV, Lynk & Co 09 is definitely one of the best products in China. The starting price of 265,900 is not high, after all, it is a medium and large SUV. The 2021 2.0T Halo six-seater is recommended, with a guide price of 285,900.

The appearance of Lynk & Co 09 is very recognizable. The overall design is still Lynk & Co family. The front shape is a bit exaggerated. The huge straight waterfall grille and sharp headlights are integrated into one, which has a sense of unity. The length of the car is 5042mm, and the wheelbase of 2984mm is a circle larger than that of GS8, so it is also a six-seater layout, and the space is enough to make people feel at ease. Especially in the second row, the comfort of the two independent seats is similar to that of an MPV. In addition, it is equipped with active noise reduction and multi-layer soundproof glass for the whole car. Moreover, the front suspension of the Lynk & Co 09 is a double-wishbone independent suspension exclusive to luxury cars, which is very conscientious at the same price.

In terms of power, it is equipped with a 2.0T high-power engine with a maximum horsepower of 254 horsepower and a peak torque of 350 Nm. It is matched with an Aisin 8AT gearbox and is also supported by a full-time four-wheel drive system. The zero-to-hundred-acceleration time of this set of power is only 8 seconds. Considering that it has a curb weight of 2.12 tons like the GS8, it is relatively fast. Moreover, there is a 48V light-hybrid system, and the fuel consumption performance is not disappointing. The average measured by the owner is about 10.4 liters per 100 kilometers, which is not high for a medium-to-large SUV.

The last model to talk about is Buick's Angke flag.

In fact, in terms of cost performance, Angke Qi does not lose to GS8 and Lynk & Co 09 at all, mainly because the terminal discount is very large, basically around 50,000. It is recommended that the 2022 652T four-wheel drive enjoy the flagship 6-seater, the guide price is 339,900, and the actual reference price is around 290,000.

The appearance of Angkeqi is honestly not distinctive, it does not have the domineering style of American cars, but it is a bit mediocre. If it can be designed like an explorer, it may be more imposing. And there is no advantage in size. The length of the car is 4981mm, the wheelbase is only 2863mm, and it does not exceed 2.9 meters. The third row will be a bit tasteless.

The same is true of the actual experience. Passengers with a height of 1.73 meters sit in the second row, with more than one punch in the head room, and close to three punches when the legs are the largest. And adjust the second row to the space for two punches and sit in the third row. At this time, there is only three fingers in the head and less than one punch in the legs, which is a bit crowded. However, Angkeqi's seats are very comfortable, and the wrapping and softness are satisfactory, especially the second row, which can be regarded as inheriting the blood of GL8.

In terms of power, everyone should be very familiar with it. It is equipped with a 2.0T engine code-named LXH, with a maximum horsepower of 237 horsepower and a peak torque of 350 Nm. It is matched with a 9AT gearbox and is also supported by a four-wheel drive system. It is worth mentioning that the equipped multi-plate clutch and rear axle limited-slip differential enable Angke Qi to have a higher ability to get out of trouble, and can cope with some not particularly complicated road conditions, which is very suitable for self-driving tours. As for fuel consumption, due to the 48V light-hybrid system, the actual measured average is about 9.7 liters per 100 kilometers, which is much lower than Lynk & Co 09, and it is acceptable for home use.

Comments: The overall strength of the above-mentioned large-space SUVs is very strong. They can be used for home transportation and long-distance high-speed running. Among them, the domestically produced Trumpchi GS8 and Lynk & Co 09 are undoubtedly the most cost-effective in their class. The Buick Angke Qi is reassuring in terms of power, sound insulation, comfort, configuration and safety, plus a large drop, it is also very worthwhile.
