Chapter 41
Chapter 040: Monotonous and boring
"I don't have a girlfriend." Fang Yuan has also been tempered by the society, and he doesn't feel any embarrassment, and admits that he is single.

"It's good to be single." Zhao Fang took out her mobile phone, drew out a photo, put it in front of Fang Yuan and said cheerfully, "Look at my cousin, she's 21 this year..."

Fang Yuan stared at the phone, and found that the girl inside was as beautiful as a flower, with a well-proportioned figure, without makeup...

A pretty good girl, Fang Yuan was thinking about it, suddenly out of the corner of his eye, he saw the road ahead secretly gesturing to him, winking as if he had something to say.

"Is there something hidden?" Fang Yuan's heart skipped a beat, realizing that Lu was implying his refusal, so he immediately shrugged off his busy work and said it when he was free.

"Okay, let's get together when you're free." Zhao Fang didn't notice anything unusual about her husband, so she happily asked Fang Yuan to contact her as soon as she had time.

Fang Yuan didn't want to say anything more about meeting and having dinner, so he immediately changed the subject and told Lu Zheng and his wife that the third one was through sex.

Fang Yuan's passing through life does not mean that he has to go off-road, ride the sky slope, cross the cross axis, and cross the shell crater, but to go through the potholes in the city and get on the curb.

When you go outside the city, you can walk on non-paved roads and pass through bad roads, and have the ability to go off-road lightly.

Don't think it's so simple, if the chassis is not high enough and solid enough, it will be troublesome if it hits the oil pan and supports the bottom.

There are three indicators to measure the passability of an SUV, namely the chassis height (ground clearance), approach angle and departure angle.

"What is approach angle and departure angle?" Lu Zheng was very confused, saying that he didn't understand.

Fang Yuan took the trouble to explain seriously.

The approach angle refers to the angle between the tangent line drawn by the protruding point of the front end of the car and the ground when the car is fully loaded and stationary.

The larger the approach angle is, the easier it is for the car to climb up the ramp from the flat ground, the better the passing performance, and the less prone to contact accidents.

The departure angle refers to the angle between the tangent line drawn from the protruding point of the rear end of the car to the rear wheel and the road surface when the car is fully loaded and stationary.

The larger the departure angle, the vehicle can go up and down the steeper slope without worrying about the rear bumper getting stuck and unable to move.

The minimum ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest point of the car except the wheels and the road surface.It reflects the ability of the car not to collide with obstacles such as stones and tree stumps.

Of course, there are exceptions to everything. Some models equipped with variable suspension can lift the body, so the values ​​​​of chassis height (ground clearance), approach angle and departure angle are not fixed.

Generally speaking, the minimum ground clearance of a car is between 110mm and 150mm.

The larger the ground clearance of a car, when it exceeds 130 mm, the passing performance is relatively better, but the high-speed stability is poor.

The smaller the ground clearance, below 110 mm, the better the high-speed stability, but the poorer the passing performance.

Hard-core off-road vehicles focus on field performance, and their minimum ground clearance is generally between 200mm and 250mm. For example, the minimum ground clearance of the Wrangler is 220mm.

Urban SUVs focus on road performance, and their minimum ground clearance is between 150mm and 200mm.

When Geely Boyue is fully loaded, the minimum ground clearance is 170 mm, the approach angle is 20 degrees, and the departure angle is 24 degrees. The data is relatively good. There is no problem with the road teeth with a height of 20 cm. If you want to go off-road, then forget it. Professional things, Or a professional car.

The fourth is the driving form.

If you often want to travel by car or the road conditions are not good, of course you should choose four-wheel drive. Although SUV is not a real hardcore off-road vehicle in the strict sense, after all, it can still handle rainy and snowy days, muddy ground or general non-paved roads. .

As for Luzheng in this situation, Fang Yuan recommended him to choose the two-wheel drive, the power is enough.

The 2016 model of Geely Boyue has two types of engines: 2.0-liter and 1.8T, with front-wheel drive.

Fang Yuan recommended to Lu Zheng a 2.0L 141 horsepower L4 engine coupled with a 6-speed manual transmission.

The maximum power is 104, and the maximum torque is 178. It will not give people a strong sense of pushing back, but the power output is relatively stable and soft. At the same time, there are problems with abnormal noise and vibration of the engine. The noise during cold start is comparable to that of a diesel car, and the water temperature and oil temperature rise. It can be better later on.

The 2.0L engine is stable and healthy, but after a long time, the engine valve chamber gasket will leak oil, and the timing chain cover should also pay attention to whether there is a large area of ​​oil stains.

Compared with the engine, the gearbox of the 2016 Geely Boyue seriously lags behind.

This 6-speed manual gearbox makes abnormal noises when shifting gears and releasing the throttle, stutters at low speeds, and there is a rattling sound when shifting up and down, which is very loud.

The fuel consumption is also high. After such a long time, there are about 12 congested road sections in the urban area and about 7 on the expressway.

Geely Boyue's 6-speed manual gearbox is so rotten that it is better than the 1.8T.

The 1.8T adopts a 6-speed automatic manual gearbox, and the technology comes from DSI in Australia, a gearbox company wholly-owned by Geely.

Although it is also an AT gearbox, it is far from the AT gearboxes of Audi, Toyota and other manufacturers.

The fuel consumption is high, not to mention the oil leakage, and the gearbox shakes and makes abnormal noises when starting, which is not as good as the tuning level of Audi and Toyota.

After normal driving, gear shifting is relatively slow, especially when speeding up, the gearbox needs a certain reaction time,

What's even more strange is that when the fuel tank is full of fuel, there will be noise from the lower part of the fuel tank when passing the bumpy road. This is caused by the lack of anti-wave board inside the fuel tank, especially at night. .

"Ah, the gearbox is so rubbish?" Lu Zheng was taken aback by Geely Boyue's fuel consumption. How much did his previous Wuling Zhiguang consume?

However, Lu Zheng let out a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, Fang Yuan recommended the 2.0L manual transmission to himself, so he didn't have so many troubles.

"Bo Yue can definitely be said to be very cost-effective in terms of configuration. It is rare to have such a rich configuration at a price of 6 yuan." Fang Yuan introduced that the value preservation rate of domestic SUVs is generally very low. Geely Boyue The value retention rate is not bad, even if you want to replace it in the future, you won't lose much money.

"Just buy this Geely Boyue." Zhao Fang, the head of the family, made a final decision and made a decision. At the same time, they were also curious about the other Dongfeng Shuike introduced by Fang Yuan, and asked to take a look now.

Lu Zheng and his wife had a car purchase budget of [-] yuan, and this Geely Boyue cost [-] yuan, and the remaining [-] Huaxia currency budget is really too little.

Fang Yuan struggled his brain cells to think of the 2015 Dongfeng Suike, which was licensed in February 2 and currently has a mileage of 6.3 kilometers.

(I’ve been driving this car for so long, so let me tell you about it.)
Fang Yuan led the two of them towards the Dongfeng Shuaike. Looking from a distance, Lu Zheng and Zhao Fang frowned.

Because there is no harm if there is no comparison, the front face of the Geely Boyue just now has a water-drop rippling air intake grille, Yuruyi-style fog lights, a cheetah waistline, and double-sided exhaust. The overall appearance is beautiful.

And what about this Dongfeng Suike?

The white body is square, without the rounded lines of Geely Boyue.

The black trapezoidal center grid in front is quite large, and the square headlights on both sides have no bright spots. The overall performance makes Lu Zheng and his wife feel monotonous and boring, and they can't arouse a little interest in appreciation.

If it hadn't been for Fang Yuan's introduction that this Dongfeng Suike cost only [-] yuan, Lu Zheng and his wife wouldn't want to go any further.
