Chapter 209: The three-cylinder engine will shake 100%.

The Lynk & Co 03 in front of me is the 2019 1.5TD DCT Jin Pro version, the body is originally thick and round, and with the blessing of a sports suit, the shape is more powerful and powerful, exuding a breath that no one can approach.

In Fang Yuan's view, it is only in terms of momentum, which is basically on par with Toyota's Corolla Shuangqing E+ and Levin E+, and even does not lose to Lexus's spindle grille.

The car's paint is a sporty and passionate red color, which looks like a blazing flame from a distance, so it's no wonder that Wang Yang was attracted by its riotous appearance.

Smiling and looking at the obsessed customer, Fang Yuan opened the main driver's door and prepared to start introducing the interior and configuration of this car.

The moment the doors opened, the black interior, black leather seats, and a huge central control area...... In stark contrast to the fiery appearance, Wang Yang's eyes were instantly round, and he felt the luxurious atmosphere exuded from the car.

"Manager Wang, get in the car and experience it?" Fang Yuan completely pushed the main driver's door open and invited Wang Yang to sit on it and give it a try.

"Good. Wang Yangle sat up, and the moment his body touched, he found that the leather seat of Lynk & Co 03 was very thick and soft, and the wings on both sides were hypertrophied, and he seemed to have a pair of big hands firmly holding himself in his arms when he sat on it.

Wang Yang has the most contact with the model, is the Tianyu Hotel used to receive customers Buick GL8, he feels that the comfort of this Lynk & Co 03 is not as good as Buick GL8, but it is stronger than the Honda Civic that he just sat in.

The whole body is completely leaning on the backrest, the waist and back are well supported, Wang Yang's hands are on the black multi-function steering wheel, and the same leather material feels very nice to hold.

Wang Yang curiously looked at the front space, the co-pilot seat next to him used red stitching, and the red dotted in the pitch black was dazzling, echoing the exterior paint while further enhancing the sporty appearance.

He didn't know what material the black interior in front was, but he thought it looked very refined and high-end, and it didn't have the strong sense of cheapness like Honda's tenth-generation Civic.

The overall shape of the central control is biased towards the main driver's side, and Wang Yang tried to control the gear lever very conveniently, without deliberately leaning the whole body to one side.

What pleased Wang Yang the most was the huge central control screen and full LCD instrument panel, which once again crushed the shabby Honda 10th generation Civic.

Wang Yang was very satisfied with the situation in the front row, turned his head to look at Fang Yuan standing outside the car, and said with a smile: "This Lynk & Co 03 looks very high-end. ”

"Hmm. Fang Yuan nodded in response to Wang Yang, and introduced to him that the high-end interior design of this Lynk & Co 03 Jin is really heartfelt, inheriting the consistent exquisite style of Lynk & Co, and it looks high-end from the surface, not losing to those joint venture cars of more than 200,000 yuan.

However, compared with Lynk & Co 01, many of the original leather wrapping places have been replaced with slush molding, and the original slush molding material has become hard plastic.

The seat of Lynk & Co 03 is not perfect in Fang Yuan's opinion, although the wrapping support is very good, compared with other domestic cars, it has obvious advantages.

However, the fit of the backrest and headrest is not particularly good, and the lateral support for the upper part of the body is insufficient during intense driving, and the ergonomic design of this one-piece seat needs to be improved.

Fang Yuan sighed at the same time, and remembered its price, compared with the Honda 10th generation Civic, his heart suddenly felt a lot better, thinking that the materials of Lynk & Co 03 are quite real.

In addition to the exquisite workmanship of the seats and interior, the Lynk & Co 03 has many ways to show off the sense of luxury.

Overhead is the standard panoramic electric sunroof, which lets in sunlight.

In the middle is the standard 10.2-inch central control screen with very high definition, while the central control screen of Honda Civic is only 7 inches, which is not only small but also blurry, with a taste of auto parts city.

Lynk & Co 03 central control screen is surrounded by two rectangular air conditioning outlets with rounded corners, chrome decoration with honeycomb decorative strips running through both sides and the central control, which is very exquisite and full of luxury.

Below the central control screen is the air conditioning control button, because there are fewer buttons, it can only provide some basic operations, and more complex air conditioning operations need to be adjusted in the screen, but this seems simple and simple, not so complicated.

In addition, the heated front seats, one-key lifting of the whole window, and the full LCD instrument panel are also standard configurations of the Lynk & Co 03 series, completely crushing the high-end Honda 10th generation Civic.

Hearing Fang Yuan begin to introduce the configuration of the Lynk & Co 03, Wang Yang asked curiously: "What is the configuration of this Lynk & Co 03 and the tenth-generation Honda Civic?"

"In terms of configuration alone, the high configuration of the 10th generation Honda Civic is similar to the low configuration of the Lynk & Co 03, not to mention that it wants to be compared with this Pro version. Fang Yuan directly compared the two cars that Wang Yang had seen.

In addition to the configuration just mentioned, this Lynk & Co 03 Jin Pro version has more lane departure warning system, active safety system, fatigue driving prompt, panoramic camera, adaptive cruise, automatic parking, steering wheel shift, built-in dash cam, mobile phone wireless charging, interior atmosphere lighting, rearview mirror memory, rear seat air outlets, interior air conditioning and other functions.

And Fang Yuan believes that these extra functions are very practical, such as lane departure system is very important for driving safety, steering wheel shift can improve driving pleasure, interior atmosphere lights and rear exhaust air vents, etc., have greatly improved the riding experience of passengers in the front and rear rows......

However, the Honda Civic only has two more pitiful functions than the Lynk & Co 03 Jin Pro version: reversing video image and engine start and stop.

In short, if you simply compare the car configuration, the Honda Civic has the functions of the Lynk & Co 03 Jin Pro, or even do better, the Honda Civic does not have the functions, and the Lynk & Co 03 Jin Pro also has.

So if Fang Yuan is given the choice, he will definitely choose the Lynk & Co 03 Jin Pro without hesitation, ignoring the tenth-generation Honda Civic.

As for the high and low configuration of Lynk & Co 03, both have a large central control screen, heated front seats, one-key lifting of the whole window, full LCD instrument panel, etc., but the top configuration is more than the low configuration of the rear side privacy glass, rearview mirror memory, automatic anti-glare of the inner rearview mirror, interior atmosphere light, electric adjustment of the main and co-pilot seats, wireless charging of mobile phones, adaptive cruise, automatic parking position, panoramic camera, front parking radar, parallel assist, lane departure warning system, active safety system, fatigue driving tips, Driving mode switching, oh yes, and there are a few more horns.

Therefore, Fang Yuan thought that the twelve thousand yuan was still worth it.

"So many configurations?" Wang Yang was stunned by the configuration name that Fang Yuan said, and asked with some surprise in his heart, "Isn't there anything stronger than the Lynk & Co 03 Jin Pro in the tenth generation of Honda Civic?"

"Yes, of course. Fang Yuan turned around and opened the door behind the Lynk & Co 03 Jin Pro version, and motioned for him to sit up.

Seeing Fang Yuan beckoning him over, Wang Yang quickly came out of the front and then to the back.

At the moment of drilling into the back row, Wang Yang noticed that the rear space of this Lynk & Co 03 Jin Pro version could not be compared with the rear row of the tenth-generation Honda Civic.

When he sat in the seat, his body felt a little aggrieved, because his back was bent like a crayfish, and the headroom was very small, how could he have such a bad experience on the Civic just now?

The same person, the same height, and different riding feelings, Wang Yang helplessly said to Fang Yuan outside: "It's a little uncomfortable." ”

"This is due to the unreasonable angle of reclining between the backrest of the rear seat and the seat cushion. Fang Yuan knew that this was the result.

The length, width, height and wheelbase of this Lynk & Co 03 Jin Pro are 4657 mm, 1840 mm, 1460 mm and 2730 mm respectively.

It can be seen that no matter which of its body sizes is larger than the tenth-generation Civic, however, the interior space is beaten by the tenth-generation Civic, making it impossible to believe that this is a compact sedan with a wheelbase of more than two meters seven.

Don't forget that the tenth-generation Civic is still a hatchback model, if this Lynk & Co 03 Jin Pro version is also a large hatchback, it is estimated that the rear seats can only squat like Porsche 911 and Toyota 86.

Fortunately, the Lynk & Co 03 Jin Pro version has independent air conditioning outlets in the rear, and the bulge in the middle of the rear floor is not high, and the reinforcement of the configuration finally makes up for some of the shortcomings in the ride.

The Lynk & Co 03 Jin Pro version not only has a small rear space, the passengers' sitting posture is a little restrained, and its trunk space is also narrow, so you must not drive it for a long trip or go out on a wild trip with a large number of items.

However, Fang Yuan remembered the identity of the Lynk & Co 03 sports sedan and its target group positioning under the age of 30, so he understood that a trade-off must be made between practicality and sports, there is no doubt that Lynk & Co 03 chose the latter, and the rear space is definitely not the most concerned issue for young car owners.

Fang Yuan solemnly told Wang Yang: "Lynk & Co 03 no matter the type and strength, no matter the top or low, it is a young man who drives and plays, galloping on the street, and wants to treat it as a pure family car like the Japanese, especially after the children in the family grow taller, it is very inappropriate." ”

Wang Yang nodded and didn't say anything, he silently thought about the situation when Fang Yuan introduced the Civic just now, and then Fang Yuan began to introduce the power of this Lynk & Co 03 Jin Pro version.

Regardless of the Lynk & Co 03+, the 2019 1.5TD DCT version with the lowest price configuration and the manufacturer's guide price of 133,800 yuan, to the 2019 2.0TD automatic Jin Pro version with the highest price configuration and the manufacturer's guide price of 166,800 yuan, these six models are all front-wheel drive 4-door 5-seater sedans, with a total of two engines and two gearboxes.

The engine of the Lynk & Co 03 2019 1.5TD DCT model version is a 1.5T three-cylinder engine, and the gearbox is a wet dual-clutch transmission, with a maximum horsepower of 180 and a maximum power of 132.

The Lynk & Co 03 2019 2.0TD Automatic Jin Pro version is equipped with a 2.0T engine and a 6-speed automatic manual transmission, with a maximum horsepower of 190 and a maximum power of 140.

And the tenth-generation Honda Civic that Wang Yang just saw has a maximum horsepower of 177 and a maximum power of 130.

Just looking at the surface data, Honda's 1.5T engine is not even as good as the 1.5T engine of the Lynk & Co 03, let alone the 2.0T engine.

However, the amazing thing is that the data is at a disadvantage, the 000 acceleration and fuel consumption of the Lynk & Co 03 and Honda Civic are actually about the same, after all, the manual transmission of the tenth-generation Civic can also run for more than seven seconds.

The red 2019 1.5TD DCT Jin Pro version in front of you is the power system combination of a three-cylinder engine humidifying dual-clutch transmission.

Its parameters are very beautiful, and in fact, this 1.5T three-cylinder turbocharged engine is fast and powerful.

The 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission is equipped with a stable power connection, and the gear addition and reduction are completed cleanly.

In general, the control of this power system in terms of shake and frustration is still good, there is no obvious feeling, however, since it is a dual-clutch and three-cylinder engine, after a long time, the ancestral problems should still be unavoidable, and the three-cylinder engine will shake 100%.

At present, the best and most stable quality of dual-clutch is the German Volkswagen, and it can be said that there is no one in the world who understands dual-clutch better.

However, its dry dual clutch also has frustration, shaking, and fear of peristalsis and stop-and-go caused by long-term traffic jams, otherwise it is easy to burn the clutch plates.

Dual-clutch clutch plate replacement is not as simple as manual transmission, and a set of assembly must be changed, which increases the maintenance cost to a certain extent.

The wet dry clutch is slightly better than the dry dual clutch, but care should also be taken to avoid traffic jams and slow creep for long periods of time.

This 2019 1.5TD DCT Jin Pro version of the Lynk & Co 03, another issue that needs to be paid attention to is its three-cylinder engine.

The shaking of the three-cylinder engine is a natural problem, and no OEM dares to pat its chest to ensure that its three-cylinder engine does not shake.

It can only be minimized by increasing soundproof cotton and other measures, but it cannot be fundamentally eliminated.

It was the engine shaking again, the gearbox frustration, and the clutch plate burning, Wang Yang was dumbfounded when he looked at Fang Yuan, he was very anxious now, he admired Fang Yuan's professionalism and honesty, and was afraid of this or that kind of problems and problems.

Finding that the customer's face was scared for a while, it was blue for a while, and white for a while, Wang Hu snorted and laughed, he was worried that Fang Yuan's list was yellow, and immediately explained to Wang Yang: "The three-cylinder engine is not so terrible, this car is the maintenance and maintenance that I drive, except for the rapid acceleration, the engine shake is not so obvious." ”

"Really?" Unlike treating Fang Yuan, Wang Yang had never been in contact with Wang Hu, so he didn't know if what he said was true or not.

"Brother Wang is right, the three-cylinder engine is not shaking all the time, otherwise Ford, BMW, Honda and other car companies will not dare to use it. Fang Yuan told Wang Yang that there is no problem with the three-cylinder engine when driving at a constant speed, and the owner's driving experience is the same as that of the normal four-cylinder engine and six-cylinder engine.

Engine shake is only noticeable at the start due to the increased load on the engine.

Similarly, when accelerating sharply during driving, the load on the engine suddenly increases, and the shake increases.

In the past, the three-cylinder engine would also notice a slight shake when idling, but now various models have taken a lot of measures, except for the slightly higher speed and louder noise at idling, it is no different from a four-cylinder car.

"That's right. Wang Yang's heart felt a little better, and his face was not as ugly as just now.

The Lynk & Co 03 2019 2.0TD Automatic Jin Pro version does not have these problems, because it uses a 2.0T four-cylinder turbocharged engine, and there is no problem with sharp acceleration and violent engine shaking during starting.

However, its 6AT gearbox also has a stutter and jitter, and a little better is not afraid of low-speed creeping in traffic jams.

However, the manufacturer's guide price of the Lynk & Co 03 2019 2.0TD automatic Jin Pro version has reached 166,800, and the red Lynk & Co 03 in front of it is almost the same as the 2019 1.5TD DCT Jin Pro version, oh no, it is one less passenger seat electric adjustment than it, in this case it is 18,000 more expensive.

So when introducing the Honda 10th-generation Civic just now, Fang Yuan said that he recommended the 1.5T 10th-generation Civic with manual transmission, but now he recommends the more expensive Lynk & Co 03 2019 2.0TD Automatic Jin Pro version.
