In recent years, the domestic SUV market has been extremely hot, and there seems to be a trend of surpassing sedans in terms of sales. The reason why SUVs are so popular among Chinese people is mainly because of their tall body, which not only looks respectable, but also has a large space and is comfortable to ride. The demand for SUVs in the market is so huge that automakers will not let go of such a big piece of "cake". Some Chinese brand automakers such as Changan and Haval have also launched their own special models. Not only do they look good, High, the configuration is not low either. Today, the editor will recommend to you 4 domestic flagship SUV models priced at around 200,000 yuan to see what they can bring us.

1. Trumpchi GS8

Guide price: 163,800-259,800

Model level: medium-sized SUV

GS8 is quite attractive in appearance. It has a hint of American SUV style, with a domineering front, straight and tough lines, square headlights and taillights, and a body length of over 4800mm. I believe it will turn heads when driving it on the road. In addition, the appearance of GS8 is entirely created by a domestic design team, and it is truly commendable to have such an eye-catching visual effect.

The interior of Trumpchi GS8 is also excellent. The wrap-around center console design creates a good sense of luxury. Some details are also very exquisitely processed, and there is no smell in the new car. This has reached even It surpasses the assembly process of many joint venture models.

Of course, rich configurations have always been the advantage of independent brand models. The price of 182,800 yuan can already include LED headlights, panoramic cameras, blind spot monitoring, steep slope descent, and electric seats with heating and ventilation functions. Seats, front and rear independent air conditioning and other configurations are included.

The larger body size brings better interior space. Nowadays, there are an endless stream of 7-seat SUVs, but there are very few third-row space as practical as the GS8. While the space in the front and rear rows is guaranteed to be comfortable, the third row can still accommodate an average-sized adult for a long time, which is very rare.

The power system of Trumpchi GS8 is transplanted from the 2.0T 6AT power combination on GA8, but with different adjustments, the power and torque have been improved, and the data performance is good. What is even more worth mentioning is the chassis tuning of the GS8. Although its overall style focuses on comfort, it can still be retracted and retracted freely when encountering large bumps and intense driving without any unnecessary bounce. The tuning level is at the level of independent brands. It can be regarded as first-class.

Editor’s comment: Trumpchi GS8’s excellent sales performance proves that there is a market for domestically produced SUVs in the 200,000 yuan class. It is a model that truly breaks the monopoly of joint venture brands on the SUV market of about 200,000 yuan. A car. Both it and CS95 have excellent hardware performance, but the styles of the two are different - Trumpchi GS8 is not as big as CS95, but it has a more refined and stylish interior and exterior design, and it is easier to win the favor of consumers. Good impression.

2. Changan CS95

Guide price: 159,800-229,800

Model level: medium and large SUV

Changan CS95 itself has The longest body length, and thanks to the hidden D-pillar and triangular window design on the side of the car, it is much longer in terms of visual effect. In addition, the huge air intake grille on the front of the car also brings a very domineering and thick effect, making the CS95 visually very large.

In addition to excellent workmanship, the multimedia system of CS95 is the biggest highlight of its interior. First of all, its operation is very smooth, even comparable to the smartphones we use every day. In addition, the response speed of this system is fast enough, and the built-in Amap navigation is also very easy to use and not useless at all.

The huge body size of the CS95 brings excellent interior space performance. Both the seating space and the storage space show the performance that it should have under this size. This performance is enough to satisfy everyone. People are satisfied.

In terms of power, this 2.0T "Blue Whale" engine independently developed by Changan is the biggest highlight.

Its power output is completely comparable to that of joint venture brands. Coupled with the 6AT gearbox from Aisin, it is not only powerful but also has good performance in terms of fuel economy.

Editor’s comment: Changan CS95 feels very real. It does not have any outstanding design, but the actual car is very majestic and tough, and many male consumers should like it very much. The interior design is also not outstanding, but the workmanship and quality are excellent, not inferior to the joint venture models at all, and there is no need to worry about the configuration. It can definitely be praised in terms of space. The 7-seater third row is not oppressive, and the huge trunk can be used as a minivan. The power performance is also excellent, the entire powertrain is well matched, and the ride comfort and driving quality are also good.

3. WEY VV7

Guide price: 167,800-188,800

WEY comes from Great Wall Motors and was born on November 16, 2016. The pronunciation of WEY It comes entirely from the surname of Wei Jianjun, chairman of Great Wall Motors; the brand is China's first luxury SUV brand built by Great Wall Motors with the highest standards of a global luxury brand after successfully building the Haval brand of economical SUVs. Its brand LOGO originates from the "big flagpole in front of the Zhili Governor's Mansion in Baoding," a landmark building in Baoding, China, the birthplace of Great Wall Motors, implying the creation of a benchmark for luxury SUVs in China.

VV7 is more like a model from the future. Its appearance adopts a sports car-like design style, which looks quite stunning at first glance. It is unforgettable after seeing it. Moreover, its overall style is completely different from Haval’s models. It emphasizes the sense of high-end and sportiness. It can be said that it is an independent brand. It is currently the most radically designed coupe SUV.

The interior is completely free from the design of Haval’s models, and the division of each functional area is also different from the traditional layout; the center console is decorated with softer slush plastic material, and the workmanship and materials are in line with luxury brands. It looks similar, and the overall visual effect is also very eye-catching.

The overall space performance of the VV7 is not bad, but due to the pursuit of streamlined coupe-like appearance, its performance in terms of front and rear headroom still has room for improvement. In addition, the size difference also makes its trunk performance not as good as other models in this article, but considering its breathtaking appearance, there are gains and losses.

In addition, VV7 is also equipped with three different driving modes: normal, energy-saving and sports to meet the driving needs of different road conditions. However, it is sufficient in normal mode, and its power performance is excellent whether on city roads or highway sections.

Editor’s comment: Compared with the opponents in this article, the high-end VV7 attracts countless eyes with its sexy appearance and ultra-high configuration. It is very dazzling in terms of product power and competitiveness, but for a For new brands, perhaps WEY’s test is yet to come.

4. Haval H8

Guide price: 183,800-256,800

Haval H8 can be said to be one of the "pioneers" for domestic SUVs to enter the 200,000 range. , I still remember how popular it was when it first came out, but it comes sooner rather than later. The market performance of Haval H8 has been tepid. On the contrary, newcomers like Trumpchi GS8 have achieved very good sales results. . Now Haval H8 has finally received a facelift. Although the new appearance does not have drastic changes, it still looks sturdy and naive, but the optimization of details also makes it look more contemporary.

The interior design and style of the Haval H8 is indeed a bit outdated from the current perspective. Fortunately, this facelift has brought some sincere changes, including the electronic shift lever, 7 inch LCD screen, all-terrain control system, etc.

In addition, this time Haval H8 also prepares a diesel engine for everyone, which also has a 2.0-liter displacement, but with the help of twin turbochargers, the maximum power is 140KW and the maximum torque is 420Nm.

The unsatisfactory market performance makes the Haval H8 more like a latecomer compared to the Changan CS95 and Trumpchi GS8. However, among SUV models at this price, you will also find that the Haval H8 is one of the few , using longitudinal engines and low-speed four-wheel drive models. In fact, this is not only an "alternative" independent brand, but even for joint venture brands, such products are already rare.

Editor’s comment: While Haval H8 retains these hard-core traditions and makes upgrades in terms of interior and exterior design, comfort configuration, active safety, etc., its competitiveness is no longer the same as that of the old H8. . So if you have greater demand for off-road performance, then Haval H8 is the most reliable choice.

Summary:

There are many SUVs priced around 200,000 yuan, but it is not easy to buy one you like. The above four SUVs are not only representatives of the 200,000-yuan domestic flagship SUVs, but their strength is also undoubted, and they can also provide good value for money in head-to-head confrontations with joint venture rivals.
