● You are not mistaken, it is 3.8 seconds.
When a hatchback with a length of less than 4.3 meters and a total power of 3 15KW, it can easily rank among the ranks of "steel guns". Some people may think that this MG Mulan looks similar to Fit, which is a daily shopping cart. Yes, this hatchback model always gives people the illusion that people and animals are harmless, which is one of the reasons why the small steel cannon is popular, because it allows you to stage a good show of "dressing up as a pig and eating a tiger" at any time.
When 3.83 seconds of 0- 100km/h acceleration appeared in front of me, I admit that everyone's faces were full of surprises. After all, this is almost the same as the official claim of 3.8 seconds. In this era when PPT cars are flying all over the sky, there are not many car companies that can do what they say.
3.8 seconds 0- 100km/h acceleration intensity? Let's take a look at the acceleration performance of fuel vehicles that were previously recognized as "performance parties". The performance of Volkswagen Golf GTI and Megane RS is far from 4 seconds, and the acceleration performance of BMW M2 and the dream of driving pleasure of countless young men are not squeezed into 4 seconds. Aston martin DB 1 1 built by the British traditional supercar manufacturer, with the help of V8 engine, the acceleration performance only stops at 4.0 seconds. In the past, if someone tried to hit a super sports car with a small steel gun of less than 200 thousand, I'm afraid it would be regarded as a joke. With the advent of MG Mulan four-wheel drive in the electric age, many possibilities have become possible.
Different from the acceleration of many electric vehicles, the acceleration of the four-wheel drive version of MG Mulan is very lasting, which not only has a strong sense of pushing back in the initial stage, but also has a good output ability in the middle and late stages of acceleration, which is also the most impressive in the linear acceleration project. The axial load ratio of 50:50 gives Mulan an excellent sense of control. In the corner, you will feel a strong sense of the whole body, which makes you feel more at ease to try the higher limit of the vehicle.
The turning radius of 5.3 meters brings a very flexible driving experience, even if you shuttle between narrow passages, you don't have to worry at all. The suspension of the former McPherson rear five-bar linkage has good supporting performance, and flexible adjustment can also give drivers more confidence. At the same time, the suspension also takes into account the relationship between sportiness and comfort. When the car passes through bumps such as speed bumps, it feels clean and tidy, and there is no unnecessary bounce.
The rapid acceleration and the control ability of "pointing where to hit" add a lot of color to Mulan four-wheel drive models. Of course, a performance steel gun runs fast and has to stop. Mulan four-wheel drive version has MK C 1 decoupled electric brake control system in mainland Germany+newly integrated ONEBOX electronic brake system, which can achieve excellent braking performance of 36.9 meters, allowing you to test the critical point of the vehicle with greater confidence.
MG Mulan is the world's first pure electric vehicle (overseas version MG4) based on SAIC Nebula pure electric exclusive system platform. It is also the first time to apply the "zero-burning technology" 1 100 mm ultra-thin Rubik's Cube battery with CTP technology to production vehicles (energy density 180Wh/kg), and the whole vehicle meets the five-star safety standards of Europe -NCAP. The four-wheel drive version of MG Mulan is equipped with a 64kWh ternary lithium battery pack with a maximum cruising range of 460km(CLTC).
Although the cruising range of 460km is not outstanding in the current pure electric vehicles, don't forget that this four-wheel drive version of MG Mulan focuses on performance control. I think car owners who want to buy a four-wheel drive model should not care too much about its endurance. Because this test drive experience was conducted in a closed venue, we failed to experience the power consumption and auxiliary driving ability of the vehicle in detail, and then we will conduct specific tests after getting the test drive later.
● A "handsome guy" who is good in all aspects.
In terms of face value, I am willing to give this four-wheel drive version of MG Mulan a high score. The front face of the "X" shape is quite domineering, and the long and narrow light group cooperates with the aerodynamic suite below to create a quite sharp visual effect, which makes people know at a glance that Mulan is a tough guy who can't be provoked.
There are not many complicated lines on the side of the car body. Black and white create the effect of suspended roof, and the design of side skirts also highlights the sporty temperament of the vehicle. The length, width and height of Mg Mulan are 4287 *1836 *1516mm respectively, and the wheelbase reaches 2705mm. Although the brake calipers are only "dressed up" with orange decorative covers, it must be said that the visual effect is quite good.
The most attractive thing at the rear of the vehicle must be the spoiler with exaggerated shape above. This kind of double-width hollow tail has appeared on UNI-T before. According to the official, this design is inspired by the swan spreading its wings, which not only has more visual impact, but also makes the airflow at the rear of the vehicle better stabilize the body. The penetrating taillights protrude outward, and many luminous strips are embedded inside, which is very futuristic after lighting. The test drive vehicle is equipped with Bridgestone brand tires with specifications of 235/45 R 18.
Many cars called "performance and sports" pay too much attention to appearance, but in terms of interior design, they return to rigid family style, which makes people feel "lost" after opening the door. The MG Mulan did just right in the modeling of the interior. In fact, it is not difficult to make the interior more sporty. Just get rid of those complicated ideas and make your heart pure. Except for two LCD screens, the interior of MG Mulan has no fancy design. The steering wheel with approximate hexagon feels quite good, and the design of fur turning is commendable.
10.25 inch central control panel is quite satisfactory. As the owners of performance cars, we don't need a huge screen and some grandstanding gimmicks. The official said that the car will be equipped with intelligent zebra Venus 2.0 system, and software such as AI voice assistant, Didi, iQiyi and Netease Cloud Music will not be absent. However, because the model we tested this time is still an engineering car, the internal functions of the car can not be fully experienced. It should be pointed out that although the wireless charging area under the central control screen is non-slip, the high position and shallow design are easy to throw the mobile phone out during intense driving. It would be more appropriate to design the wireless charging area in the cup holder area.
The support of the dual-material integrated sports seat is quite good, especially the lateral support of the waist can prevent the driver from swinging violently left and right in the corner. In the case of taking care of daily household, this seat is really powerful enough, but only the front main driver supports the adjustment of the electric seat. The flat floor brings more comfortable and rich riding experience to the rear passengers, and the rear seats support 4/6 ratio, which can further expand the storage space of the trunk.
Write it at the end.
It seems that it is not easy to find a car with fast acceleration and strong driving pleasure within 200 thousand. In the era of fuel vehicles, it is really a hundred thousand dollars to own a car with the same performance as the MG Mulan four-wheel drive version. As a heavyweight model of this year's SAIC MG, MG Mulan really has good competitiveness. In the context of exporting to overseas markets, the four-wheel drive version only sells for 654.38+086.8 million yuan, which is a headache for Volkswagen ID.3 and smart Elf # 1. At least for now, the four-wheel drive version of MG Mulan is the strongest pure electric steel gun among 200,000, and if you just want to buy an electric car to walk in the city, you may wish to pay attention to the two-wheel drive version of MG Mulan. After all, its starting price is only 129800 yuan.
