The trunk of Changan Qiyuan E07 is the biggest highlight of this product. At present, the main competitors in the market are,, etc. Can they win market favor with their own characteristics?

In the automotive market, the launch of new cars always causes a lot of buzz. Not long ago, the 2024 CX-70 was unveiled, and it was heard that its price is expected to start from 300,000. As soon as the news came out, it immediately attracted a lot of interest from fans and consumers, and one of the most interesting questions was, can this car be compared?

Hey, in recent years, the performance in our country has been a bit mediocre. In a lot of joint venture brands, it has long been no longer the leader, and even a little overshadowed. But with the emergence of a new generation of CX-70, Mazda seems to be challenging this situation.

Let’s talk about the exterior design of this car first. Mazda has always been famous for its unique design style, and this CX-70 is no exception. The exterior looks beautiful, full of movement and sporty atmosphere, especially those young people will definitely be attracted. In contrast, although it is also a medium-sized model, its design is a bit old-fashioned and may be a bit outdated.

Then, product strength is also the key to winning. It is said that the CX-70’s interior workmanship and configuration level are quite good, and there may be a large displacement, providing more powerful power. This is definitely a big advantage in the competition.

Finally, let’s talk about the price. I heard that the starting price of this Mazda CX-70 is about 300,000, which is not high compared to Highlander. Coupled with its appearance, interior and power advantages, this price looks quite attractive.

Overall, the appearance of the 2024 Mazda CX-70 provides consumers with a new choice. Although it is not easy to completely beat the mainstream medium-sized like Highlander, Mazda seems to be ready. Its unique design, strong product force and reasonable price positioning all make people look forward to its future. As for whether it can really beat the Highlander? Maybe only time will tell.

There are many options for gasoline + 48V light hybrid system cars now, just as we said today. Let’s take a look together.

Take a look at the appearance of the Cadillac XT5 first. The front style of the Cadillac XT5 looks very personalized and cool. It is equipped with a three-frame middle net, which looks sporty. Then it adopts a sharp headlight design to improve the grade of the whole car. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, automatic opening and closing, adaptive far and near light, delayed closing, etc. To the side, the body size of the car is 4813MM*1903MM*1686MM, the car adopts domineering lines, the body gives a very delicate feeling, with large-sized thick-walled tires, smooth lines run through the entire side. On the rear design, the rear of the car looks very fashionable and atmospheric, and the taillights are very sharp, creating a good aura.

Inside the car, the interior looks very cold and rich in functions. The steering wheel of the car is very simple and stylish, made of genuine leather, and the palm fit is very high. Let’s take a look at the central control. The design of the center console is reasonable, which makes the interior style impressive and looks a certain sense of technology. The interior feels good. Let’s take a look at the dashboard and seats. The dashboard of the car presents a deep design style and creates a sporty atmosphere. The car adopts leather seats, which are equipped with functions such as electric adjustment of the sub-seat, electric adjustment of the seat with memory, and seat ratio reclining, which is comfortable.

The Cadillac XT5 trunk space performance is OK. If you have large items on the road, you can put down the rear seats to expand the space. At the same time, the car is equipped with night vision system, brake anti-lock braking (ABS), LED daytime running lights, brake assistance (EBA/BAS, etc.), braking force distribution (EBD) main driver’s airbag, passenger seat airbag, knee airbag, side aircurtain, front side airbag and other safety configurations.

After reading today’s talk, do you have a lot of ideas? Models at this level often offer a good balance of cost performance and practicality, and are often considered by most consumers to be the first choice when buying a car.

Recently, I believe that the flour who is ready to buy a car has been attracted by the "huge discounts" of various car brands. But I hope that the shrewd people will not be disturbed by the price of their original car demand. For example, SUVs that have always maintained a hot topic in China have always had two groups of loyal fans.

The first group was naturally those who often commuted in the city and occasionally went out to drive. The second group was those who often challenged various difficulty off-road scenarios and often went camping in the wild. But between the two groups, would there be some consumers who needed to commute in the city and go camping on holidays?

I believe the answer is yes.

Of course, it is the second-generation big dog of Haval, the protagonist of our test drive.

I believe that those who are concerned about the Haval brand know that the first generation of Haval Big Dog (Parameters) is launched for young consumers, and its strength is also remarkable. The second generation of Big Dog, based on the advantages of the first generation, increased the length, wheelbase and front wheelbase, allowing the second generation of Big Dog to transform from a compact SUV into a medium-sized SUV.

In terms of power that everyone cares about the most, the maximum horsepower and torque of its 2.0T engine have been improved by 27 horsepower and 50 Nm compared with the previous generation, and the gearbox has also been upgraded from the previous generation’s 7DCT to 9DCT. Whether it is for city driving or off-road scenarios, its acceleration performance, escape ability and fuel economy can be greatly improved. As for other aspects of the second-generation big dog, let’s find out in this test drive.

When I first saw the actual car of the second generation of the big dog, I felt that it was more wild than the first generation. The slender middle net extended directly to the headlights on both sides, making it a tougher look from the newer shape of the previous generation. On the side of the car, the lines clearly engraved on the front and rear fenders give it a sense of muscular power.

In addition, the rivets on the anti-scratch wheel arch will be more obvious than the first generation, making its wild characteristics more prominent. As for why the taillights do not use the most popular through-type taillights, this can only be said to be a matter of opinion. But the headlights and taillights are hidden in the dog bone shape of the turn signal, this small detail is quite interesting.

Sitting in the car of the second-generation big dog, you will first be attracted by its two huge display screens. Its LCD meter is 12.3 inches, and there is a large 14.6-inch central control screen. It can be said that you are directly putting the screen of a mainstream laptop on the center console. And we tested the top model, so there is also a Hud head-up display.

It is worth mentioning that the brightness of this central control screen is as high as 1000 nits, and the hardness has reached the Mohs 7H level, which is not afraid of scratching by daily objects. And it also has three coatings, which can achieve the effects of anti-glare, anti-reflection and anti-fingerprint. It can be seen that in addition to urban use, it also takes into account the use of your off-road scene.

You must know that the most famous national highways such as 318 and 219 are on the plateau, because the daytime sun will be very dazzling. If the brightness of the central control screen is not enough, or there is no anti-reflection function, then when driving in these places, you cannot clearly see the navigation or vehicle status.

Then, in terms of the gear handle, the knob shift of the previous generation has been replaced by the electronic gear shift lever of the tank 300. Next to the gear lever, there are control buttons such as differential lock, handbrake, and knobs for driving mode. There are also physical buttons such as air conditioning and multimedia listed at the bottom of the central control screen. This is to facilitate drivers to perform blind operations in the city or off-road to avoid affecting driving safety.

Of course, the second-generation big dog’s car is equipped with the 8155 chip, and when there is a signal, you can control it by voice to execute various commands. For example, switch on and off the sunroof or windows, adjust the air conditioner, choose songs, check the weather or navigation, etc. Its response is very fast. And you can also speak commands continuously to make it execute, without calling it frequently. Ultimately, its performance is in the same level.

However, what surprised me the most was the comfort of the second-generation big dog seats, both in the front and rear seats, which were excellent. Let me sigh again, what people used to say about the Nissan sofa is really not an advantage now. Look at 100,000 cars like the big dog, it can present a comfortable feeling like the Nissan sofa, and its comfort is that the surface cushion is soft. When you sink in to a certain extent, it will have a support to support you. You wouldn’t say that the whole person is sinking in.

So in this test drive, whether it is on a city road, a country road, or a bumpy mountain road, the big dog gave me a good sense of comfort. Coupled with the longer wheelbase, the legroom in the rear row is also very good. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to mention that the angle of the rear seat backrest of the first generation of big dogs cannot be adjusted. Now the second-row seat backrest of the second-generation big dog is already adjustable. When you go to Shihe Distance again, the rear passengers can have a more comfortable sitting position and sleep peacefully.

Finally, in terms of some details, the second generation of big dogs has a magnetic camping mosquito repellent lamp, which can also be used as a flashlight or a signal light. There is also a table board in the trunk (to be used with camping carts, etc.), which can be used for 5 people to eat around while camping. The rear window has a rare sunshade of the same class, and the front row has a 50-watt wireless charging. The new cup holder also adopts a shape similar to the fixed seat belt, which is convenient for you to stuff water glasses or drinks of different sizes.

This design, in the process of driving on the mountain road, let me get a real experience. Because when running on the mountain road, the car body shakes because of the bumps in the road, and then my knee directly hits the plastic bottle in the cup holder, which helps me cushion the force. Think about it, if it was a traditional plastic cup holder, it would definitely hurt to hit my knee.

Coming to the driving part, we have to go back to the big dog’s car and talk about its help for off-road driving. I believe those who have played off-road know that off-road depends on the performance of the car and four-wheel drive performance, but also requires the driver’s own excellent driving skills. The second-generation big dog is equipped with a 360-degree panoramic image, plus a 180-degree transparent chassis, and has different visual mode switching, allowing you to clearly see the position of the four wheels on the road, as well as the steering angle.

In addition to the vehicle angle, power output of the four wheels, altitude and other data. It can be said that this is the biggest difference between the second-generation big dog and other city SUVs. I believe that if an off-road white, with the help of this system, he can already challenge some light and moderate off-road sections. If it is an off-road expert, he can even challenge some medium and high-difficulty off-road sections.

Finally, in terms of power, its 2.0T plus 9Dc offers a significant improvement in both power and fuel economy compared to the previous generation of Big Dog. Coupled with its intelligent electronically controlled four-wheel drive, two locks, and nine driving modes, it can really easily respond to urban roads and some off-road road conditions.

In this test drive, we drove on city roads and found that the 9DCT does allow the engine to rotate at a lower speed than the 7DCT at the same speed to increase fuel efficiency. If you don’t drive on city roads like a hardcore SUV, you have to transform into a grease monster/gold swallowing beast. Then on the test drive on the mountain road, there are just one or two hairpin bends, and there will be cross-axles. But we only use the AUTO mode, and the big dog can easily pass these cross axles without the need for locks or other off-road modes at all.

In addition, the big dog is equipped with a tooth-embedded differential lock, which allows you to actively lock, while most of the differential locks of other city SUVs are Eaton’s, which are passive differential locks. It will allow the vehicle to slip for a period of time before intervening, so in terms of escape efficiency, I think the second-generation big dog’s ability to get out of trouble will indeed be stronger. However, the feeling that the second-generation big dog gives me is that its throttle travel will be longer. When you step down, you will find that the depth of the throttle will be a little different from the power you want. You may have to step deeper to achieve the power effect you want. This will take some time to get used to.

After a whole day of test driving, the second-generation big dog gave me the feeling that its power is definitely enough. Whether it is driving on city roads or highways, it is completely fine, and it is easy for beginners to get started. And in the off-road area, if you have a certain off-road foundation, plus the various off-road auxiliary features of the big dog, I think you can also become a bit of a strong off-road expert. Of course, this is only for some intermediate and advanced off-road environments. If you want to challenge some very high shell craters or very steep slopes, then I think you should use a hard-core SUV to go wild.

But if you spend 50% or 60% of your time in the city, as I said at the beginning of this article, and the rest of the time you go out and go wild, then this second-generation big dog is fully capable. And it has been upgraded in technology configuration and all aspects. It is much better than the previous generation, and it is thousands of dollars cheaper. So I think for prospective owners who want to get it all in one step and hope to have both. The second-generation big dog is really an excellent SUV that can balance both urban and off-road environments.

Since its launch in 2020, Haval Big Dog has won the trust of more than 300,000 customers with its 3/4 scale product concept and light off-road attributes. What is 3/4 scale, in fact, it is more scale wild fun than city SUVs and more scale comfort than hardcore off-road vehicles. It does not blindly challenge high-difficulty off-road, but it can reach poetry and distance beyond the reach of ordinary people with good passability.

In February this year, Haval’s second-generation big dog was officially launched, and many people (including the author) may have thought that the first-generation big dog was ready to withdraw from the stage of history. But in fact, the two generations of big dogs are still sold in the same market, and the positioning, price, and power form of the two are also different. Perhaps because of the good market response, Haval Big Dog said that it can still fight again, and the 2024 model came into being.

The 2024 Haval Big Dog (hereinafter referred to as the new Big Dog) has been upgraded mainly for appearance, power and some details, and continues its outstanding off-road strength. According to the news obtained so far, the new car will be listed in the near future. Before the listing, we also came to the Ulanqab Prairie to test drive this new car first. Interested friends may wish to follow me through the test drive to understand.

Hardcore design and then upgrade

The new big dog is designed with Heart Tide Power Aesthetics 3.0, and the front face has been greatly adjusted. Compared with the old model, it has a stronger sense of strength and looks more domineering.

The front air intake grille is officially named "Rock Shield". The inside of the shield-shaped middle net is two thick horizontal spokes, and the English logo of the "HAVAL" brand on the spokes looks very eye-catching. In addition, there is a three-hole silver guard at the bottom of the front to enhance the off-road attributes.

The headlights on both sides are integrated with the front air intake grille to form a through design, which also stretches the visual width of the front of the car. The retro-shaped round headlights can be said to be the classic design elements of off-road SUVs. This time, the new car has also been retained, and the inside of the light group is an LED ring light strip and LED light source, which is also very delicate.

The new big dog still uses a more square design, with black eyebrows and luggage racks, the overall effect is also somewhat hard off-road SUV feeling. In addition, the new model also absorbs customer opinions and eliminates the fixed side pedals on the old model, which is also to prevent rubbing dirty legs.

The two-tone five-spoke aluminum alloy rims have a very good sense of style and power, and the tires are selected from the Giti Comfort F50 series, with a specification of 235/65 R18.

The tail of the new big dog may feel no different from the old one at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that the taillights of the old model are actually a pseudo-through design, while the new model uses a genuine LED through taillight. In addition, the taillights on both sides also use five vertical LED light sources, and the recognition is also very good.

Careful friends may have also noticed that the font of the "HAVAL" brand English logo in the center of the taillights has actually been adjusted. In addition, a three-hole silver guard has also been added to the bottom of the rear to further strengthen the off-road attributes.

The body size is consistent with the old model, with a length, width and height of 4620/1890/1780mm, and a wheelbase of 2738mm, making it a compact SUV.

The interior is upgraded with attention to detail

The interior design of the new big dog has not been significantly adjusted. The standard "T" font layout looks very regular, and the handles equipped in the sub-dashboard and other places also bring a good off-road atmosphere. The new car is mainly upgraded for details, such as the material of the central control sub-dashboard is upgraded to non-fingerprint, and more soft materials are added to the door panels and other positions to improve a certain interior texture.

The four-frame multi-function steering wheel still follows the old style, the package material is moderately soft and hard, and the grip is relatively solid. There are also paddle shifters behind the steering wheel to improve the driving feeling. The multi-function control area on the left side of the steering wheel can control multimedia and wake up the automatic speech recognition control system, and the right side mainly controls the driving computer on the dashboard.

The new car is equipped with a 10.25-inch full LCD dashboard and a W-HUD head-up display, which is relatively intelligent. The head-up display system can display driving information such as speed, navigation, and speed limit, which can be viewed without looking down, which is also very helpful for driving safety.

The new big dog is equipped with a 12.3-inch central control screen, which can display off-road information such as direction, slope, altitude, and air pressure, as well as vehicle status such as differential lock and front and rear axle torque.

The new car also supports Apple CarPlay mobile phone interconnection, mobile APP remote control, automatic speech recognition control and other functions, and also has built-in applications such as Tencent Aiqu Listen, Autonavi Map, iQIYI, Douyin Short Video, etc. Entertainment functions are also very rich.

At the bottom of the central control screen is the driving mode knob, which provides a total of 8 driving modes including economy, standard, sports, mud, sand, snow, grass/gravel, and convex road. At the same time, you can also control functions such as air conditioning, panoramic imaging, and rear axle differential lock.

Exceptional ride space and abundant storage space

The new car adopts ergonomic seats with soft filling, excellent wrapping and support of the seats, and the front seats provide seat heating function. The author is 183cm tall, enter the front row to adjust the seat, and the head space can reach more than one punch.

Keep the front seats unchanged, and when the experiencer comes to the back row, the head space can still reach one punch, and the knee space can reach two punches, which is still relatively good in terms of riding space. In addition, the rear floor is in a flat state, which is also worthy of praise.

The trunk is flat and provides separate storage compartments on both sides. The trunk space performance is also ideal. When you need to place large items, you can also recline the rear seats in a 4/6 ratio.

In terms of storage space, the new car is also very rich. There are 37 storage spaces in the car, and mobile phones, water glasses, and documents can be placed at will. In addition, the new car also provides wireless charging function for mobile phones, and a separate storage slot is also added to the passenger glove box.

Adopted new 2.0T + 9DCT power system

The new Big Dog offers two power combinations of 1.5T + 7DCT and 2.0T + 9DCT. We are testing the 2.0T four-wheel drive version this time. In terms of power, the 2.0T engine codenamed GW4N20A has a maximum power of 175kW and a maximum torque of 385N · m. Compared with the old 2.0T engine, both parameters have been improved to a certain extent.

Matching the engine is the Great Wall self-developed transverse 9DCT wet dual-clutch transmission, and the knob shift mechanism looks more advanced.

Our test drive included high-speed, national highways, rural roads and non-paved sections. Due to the use of a new high-power 2.0T engine, the power performance of the new car has also improved to a certain extent. In the initial stage, the performance of the new big dog is stable and powerful, and the power can be said to be easy to step on.

Due to the newly optimized low inertia supercharger, the sense of power lag is reduced. If you step on the accelerator deeply, the speed increase will not be draggy, and the acceleration and overtaking will be very leisurely. Entering the middle and rear stages, the new big dog’s re-acceleration ability also surprises the author, and the power reserve is sufficient to deal with a certain degree of intense driving.

If you drive steadily, the engine speed is basically maintained at about 1000-1500rpm, and the lower speed also brings good fuel economy. The daily driving mode can be used as standard. If you want to drive more passionately, you can also switch to the sports mode. At this time, the engine speed will increase by about 1000rpm, and the transmission will also be reduced by several gears.

The new transverse 9DCT gearbox is very active, with about 80km/h being able to rise to 8th gear, and 100km/h being able to rise to 9th gear. The smoothness of the gearbox is definitely commendable, and the whole test drive is almost imperceptible of obvious shift setbacks, which is also due to the tight speed ratio of the 9DCT and the effect of two sets of clutches without gap shifting.

In the suspension part, the new car is composed of a front McPherson + rear multi-link independent suspension structure. Chassis adjustment can be said to be the best of the Great Wall, and the suspension has also been well balanced in terms of comfort and support. The suspension can be filtered cleanly through small bumps, and when dealing with speed bumps or ditches, the suspension is also very tight, and can resolve the impact of ups and downs to a certain extent.

We did not have a difficult off-road experience this time, but drove on non-paved roads such as grasslands and mountain roads. In fact, this is also in line with the light off-road attributes of the new Big Dog. The new Big Dog 2.0T model is equipped with an intelligent and timely four-wheel drive system, which can intelligently distribute four-wheel drive torque according to road conditions. At the same time, the system is also equipped with a rear axle electronically controlled mechanical tooth-embedded differential lock, which can achieve 100% torque output between the wheels on both sides of the rear axle, bringing good escape ability. In addition, when the speed exceeds 38km/h, the differential lock will also be automatically lifted.

When entering a non-paved road section, you can switch the driving mode to grass/gravel. If you feel that the road conditions are not good, there are many muddy and rough roads, you can also switch to concave and convex roads. At this time, the all-terrain control system will control the vehicle’s skid volume through the vehicle stability system Control Unit and differential lock to improve the vehicle’s passability. The new big dog has excellent passability. Its approach angle is 24 °, departure angle is 30 °, passing angle is 22 °, and ground clearance is 200mm. It is absolutely easy to deal with general non-paved roads.

The test drive of the 2024 Haval Big Dog continues the retro hard style design and outstanding light off-road attributes, and at the same time, the appearance and power performance have been significantly improved. If the city SUV represents the family, the hard off-road SUV represents the dream, the new Haval Big Dog is a good balance between the two. The 3/4 scale and the light off-road concept are also very much in line with the life attitude of many families who love outdoor travel and camping. If you also like the attitude of light off-road, then I think the new big dog may be a good choice.
