Speaking of Geely Automobile, which is currently in place in its own brand has been Needless to say, in addition to itself has a good reputation for quality, its model is to infiltrate into every market segment , while the new energy and light are all mixed areas left off, while maintaining the breakneck speed of change of generation …… today, we are really making resolution of this auspicious ICON, it appeared without warning, without too much official information even most people do not know what kind of power it uses, how to locate.
then this one look “not very lucky,” and lucky ICON with the same helter-skelter from the BMA platform in the end what is playing routine? Today we give you a detailed analysis of the wave:
Appearance details –
or start with the appearance of the beginning, it looks very sci-fi ICON, in any case there are new forces repairer feeling, even a lot of people think that it is a pure geometric’s electric SUV. Front bumper section which does not have the traditional fuel vehicles and medium-sized network, and “return” the air intake also “back” very thorough, basically can not see auspicious family design language.
above the LED strips elongated in fact only play the role of daytime running lights, headlamps and front fog lamps are integrated on both sides of the bar, which can be split design now popular.
also retains the bottom of the front bumper similar “clouds” design, where the millimeter wave radar and brought together four probes.
Although only the mouth of the hood decoration, but this new design language through very thorough.
To the side, Geely ICON length and breadth were 4350/1810 / 1615mm, with a wheelbase of 2640mm, this data is slightly larger than the more helter-skelter, we could say that positioning the compact SUV.
to be mistaken for the cause of new energy vehicles, in addition to the conceptualization of the front face, of course, there is such a hidden door handles low wind resistance. He took the key near the door handleIt will automatically bounce, will be locked away from these operations in the control panel where you can set. In addition, the phone’s NFC can also be unlocked.
the same side of the skirt portion visible distinctive design, it would be for a conventional style hardcore SUV, but it is much more in the ICON magic.
hub portion, using a car-licensing UltraContact 225/45 R19 UC6 the hub. In fact it seems from the side hub looks like not much, it is a reason, we will discuss later.
As to tail design also unifies the vehicle is still new design language, part of the rear bumper “return” character lines formed in front of the face of a good echo. Adapted to the set of “Founder” style, ICON does not use the popular fastback design.
hidden exhaust, it was also estimated that it is one of the reasons the new energy vehicles.
more interesting is, ICON wiper, in fact, hidden along under the spoiler, but for misuse when I take pictures, failed to find this point .
Part interior configuration –
to the interior portion, magical appearance temperament also be extended to the inside round square with angular “∞” infinity symbol are designed around. And have to say that the material on real shot models are full, leather wrapped majority could be reached to the site, in addition to stitching leather + matte chrome combination of piano paint +, and let the car full of texture.
From another perspective, will find that the decorative panel is not controlled by routine cards in this design, two little screen “set” in the above sense of suspension.
In addition to the door section of a conventional buckle hand, he gave aA leather door handles, I will not speak practicality aside, this is still a doorknob looked very upscale.
Fujia front also has amazing design, common in the hardcore off-road car panel armrests, actually on the ICON also appeared.
before and after the central armrest support mobile deserve praise, the inside of the volume is relatively general, but at this level SUV was relatively normal.
both sides of the center of the cup holder storage tank, the pro-test can just put the phone, while the main benefit of this design can / fujia more intimate.
in front of the profile have set aside a larger storage shelf, the Sign support wireless charging models; Furthermore, since the electronic file is the reason, the bottom is hollowed out a large storage space, USB and 12V interfaces are integrated on to the next.
is elongate converging air conditioner panel a, the control section is touched. But to do tucao “operation can not be blind”, since the most common temperature / air volume control button, a further two sides remain in the outlet, this design is safe and neat Comparative appealing.
Since it is a new model, the car system is also a key part of the experience. Which I found fluency and display resolution has reached the mainstream level, it is not ambiguous.
look at setting section, may have more customization items, and then turn down and found that when the previous test drive Brilliant very fuel-efficient GE Intelligent glide function Meanwhile, the screen is still left / bottom right, found a seat heating function.
As for this 360-degree panoramic image with a clearer image, but when switching lenses, small dot point is not easy, it can be designed to be larger; in addition also supports this panorama image 3D “transparent” display, with swipe can switch suitable perspective.
voice parts of the system, I only tried to identify natural language, the success rate is almost as high as 90 percentage and speed of execution is very fast , even if it is on the navigation system has not been long Caton.
and then to the whole of the liquid crystal instrument panel portion. Honestly, the two screens are not set ICON light barrier, so some time still caused some reflection influence, especially after the panoramic sunroof open more obvious.
The Sign, the engine part further permitted to be disclosed, but appears to the left of the dashboard, is estimated using a mixed fuel composed of a light machine + 48V power system .
Color instrument panel will follow the adjustment of the driving mode changes. Add that is more fuel-efficient smart mentioned above glide mode, only available in Comfort mode and ECO.
Further particularly appealing feature is, when the navigation screen which controls the opening, dashboard allows full screen navigation information by sliding three fingers, then the control panel can be used for other functions up.
In addition to the above-described configuration, the vehicle is also equipped Sign wipers induction, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise the ACC, the master / fujia electric seat adjustment, perforated leather seats and so on, and so I am more surprised that the point is on this compact SUV, actually is also equipped with automatic parking assist feature.
space practical part –
introduced above so many features front to back and see what happens. First 2640mm wheelbase of this SUV, I (173cm fat) found the back of the gall to beat the remaining distance, you know ICON is the use of a multi-link independent rear suspension, the rear torsion beam performance space completely unlike the helter-skelter worse.
As supporting portion ICON relatively kind, like headrests and rear three central cup holder, is relatively rare in this level models of. Second, the uplift is not high rear floor is acceptable, and the entire combination of dual outlet + USB + Dual storage compartment, also in line with the needs of today’s most mainstream public.
Sign trunk models support 4: 6 down expansion, but also by the depth 945mm further extended to 1560mm, fly in the ointment is back down to the ground and can not do after the flat, but does not affect the placement of larger items.
Further Sign trunk model is also equipped with lights and 12V power connector; lift open the cover, here are neat toolbox, and then down a layer is part of the spare tire. Let no spare tire hole directly exposed, can be considered a pursuit of quality design.
Dynamic Properties section –
Finally talk about Geely ICON dynamic configuration, although the engine compartment not to take pictures, but when it comes to the above, the instrument panel has been shown that this is a machine with a light mix of fuel system, according to previous reporting information,Car will be equipped with a maximum power of 177 horsepower (130 kW) 1.5T turbocharged engine.
What surprises me most is the chassis or in part, this level models in terms of space or cost considerations, they are less likely to use four-wheel independent suspension, even with BMA is also the more helter-skelter flat not use this configuration, can only say, really lucky at this in the pursuit of quality of roads, the quality attributes of products has become increasingly evident.
said that a return to the previous question: Why real shot models with 19-inch wheels, but the wheels did not seem significant? Herein relates to a wheel arch and body height ratio problem. I guess ICON will light wheel arches do, precisely in order to balance the balance after independent suspension and rear space, so in this ratio, 19-inch wheels also did not seem particularly domineering.
Conclusion –
If you have read ICON concept car, we estimate it will feel very lucky to actually crazy a concept car production out. But today’s really making me to give a signal that the concept of a lot of things are now more likely to come true, just like the interior geometry of A, then you dare to believe in energy production out?
Geely ICON price is still published, but I still think it has enough competitive in terms of the current inventory and configuration of interior materials, We basically the others in place. Of course, the comparison between this unique look, or the eyes of the beholder wise see wisdom, but starting from the car itself, it is estimated to post a reasonable price, compact class will cause no small impact SUV market.
