Geely Emgrand X7, a new Chinese car for urban roads

Geely Emgrand X7 – a car that appeared on the car market of Russia in 2014. This is a new and very budget crossover, distinguished acceptable performance characteristics, comfortable interior and stylish design.

The Exterior of the model

Geely Emgrand X7 was very attractive. Although the appearance is typical Chinese. The photo of the model makes it clear that as a template for creating design chose other status models with "breed". But to make a completely identical machine failed.

I am Glad the front part of the car – Mature, serious, calm. No aggression, which some have long become boring. Previously, it was expressed in the radiator grille, chrome-plated. But the model is done wrong. The radiator was replaced with a rather unusual square lattice and optics rounded shapes. It's a little gets on the wings, but it makes the car more original. Also catches the eye round shape fog lights. Plus you cannot ignore the intake of the front bumper.

In profile, the Geely Emgrand X7 looks good too. Small overhangs, podshtampovki on the doors and fenders, roof, slightly swamped back – all this makes the car quite interesting. The only thing that can spoil the look of, – is a poop machine. It could be done better – more lights, bumper, lower door bigger. But that looks quite harmoniously.

Specifications

The Car Emgrand X7 can not be called powerful or fast. In General, this model is equipped with only one power unit – the two-litre petrol, 139 strong. Design – row, motor – injection, four-cylinder, 16-valve. In General, nothing unusual.

Emgrand X7 reviews from critics gained a modest. A test drive showed that the technical characteristics of this machine is far from ideal. More precisely, it all depends on the buyer's requirements. If he wants to buy a dynamic and fast car – this model is Geely is not for him. To "hundred" it accelerates in 11.4 seconds, and the maximum is 170 km/h. Fuel tank crossover too small – 60 liters. Although there is one plus – a rather modest expense. Geely in the urban cycle consumes little more than ten liters, and on the track – only 6.5. So in terms of efficiency Emgrand X7 wins.

Suspension and transmission

The Engine works in tandem with a five-speed "mechanics". Serious shortcomings in the tests has not been revealed – speed switch quite gently, the car does not "shaking" at the time of transmission changes. As yet there is no version with a 4-speed "automatic", but the Chinese are planning to create one.

With regard to driving – the new Geely completely independent. The front part of the producers performed in the traditional scheme McPherson. Back made independent. So the focus of the model only "asphalt".

All-wheel drive the car, not even as an option. Power steering – hydraulic, and brakes on all wheels disc. In principle, suitable for the urban roads.

About interior

And finally, a few words about the design of the cabin. I wonder what he looks rather respectable, smart wells, which gently sink devices with built-in white lighting, three-spoke steering wheel, quite pleasant to the touch, with optimal thickness and comfortable seats, though not a very good lateral support.

Ergonomics smacks of European – all controls are understood and simple. And due to the inserts with the titanium interior looks very profitable and stylish. Also inside is the airbag system, plus EBD and ABS. And large rear view mirrors and glass give excellent visibility. In General, the interior of the new Geely can be called the most successful part of a fresh model. This is confirmed by even critics.
