As far as the car itself is concerned, Zunrui is not a special car, it is just a Camry. It has the traditional advantages of Camry: spacious interior, comfortable seats, convenient configuration, comprehensive humanized design, and the chassis is not excellent but competent enough. I once wrote that Zunrui's steering is blurred, but this is really not a shortcoming of daily driving. This car is designed to make people drive more easily, effortlessly and effortlessly. This is another kind of control enjoyment, which will make people "addicted". The longer you spend with it, the more you like to get along with it.
Zunrui's real "hard injury" is only one: the rear compartment is too small, less than half of the normal car of the same class. Because of this, the use of Zunrui is subject to many restrictions. Many people travel long distances, and their luggage must be "limited". Large items cannot be carried with them. If there are young children at home, it may be difficult to place a stroller. We suggest that buyers who still have requirements for the trunk weigh this shortcoming of Zunrui. Zunrui has outstanding comfort. First, it is mute. Camry's vehicle mute effect is outstanding in the same class (we have tested it many times). Zunrui's advantage in the hybrid system is that it does not need an engine at low speed and is quiet. Second, the chassis is damped and filtered. We like the 16-inch tires equipped with Zunrui Entry Edition. The thick sidewall brings a very soft and clean shock absorption effect, and the sound insulation effect of the whole vehicle is excellent, which can be described as "peaceful". In the past six months, I have been using Zunrui as a scooter, and I often drive other test cars alternately during this period. I'm sure Zunrui's driving comfort is the first-class level within 500 thousand. Many more expensive luxury cars, even with air suspension and expensive big tires, are not as "thorough" as it is. If you are looking for a car with a smooth and quiet driving feeling, that is, a car with a sense of tranquility, Zunrui is our strong recommendation. What needs to be added is that the above evaluation is based on a specific premise: we changed Zunrui's tires at 654.38+0.7 million kilometers. We used the new tire Premacy 3st provided by Michelin to replace the original Deng Lupu SP Sport for testing. This Michelin is a mid-to high-end product, focusing on comfort and silence, just in line with Zunrui's character. The tire size has not changed, but after tire replacement, Zunrui's tire noise is obviously reduced, and the chassis has a cleaner vibration filter, which improves the ride comfort by at least half a level. Although these feelings are somewhat subjective, they have indeed been confirmed by all my colleagues. Even some colleagues who don't know that Zunrui changed the tires in advance can easily perceive the obvious change of the high-grade feeling of the automobile chassis. Let's talk about another side event: 654.38+0.7 million kilometers before Zunrui, one tire was nailed three times, and four tires were mended three times; After putting on new Michelin tires, there is not a nail stuck within 10000 km. Although pinning is accidental, in terms of probability, we suspect that Deng Lupu original tire is easier to pin (which is related to tire pattern and material), and then it is better to replace it with this Michelin tire. Generally, our half-year-old test car won't change tires. This is a rare opportunity to "postpone the long test" and show you the impact of upgrading tires on the driving experience. Let's stop promoting Michelin. Although Zunrui's article has not been published in the past six months, we still made a record of fuel consumption. The following table shows Zunrui's fuel consumption for half a year after long-term testing. The fuel consumption is slightly higher except for the abnormal test (including the acceleration of large foot throttle and long-term in-situ air conditioning), and the rest time is between 5.7 ~ 6.3L/ 100 km. In the second half of the year, the total average fuel consumption was fixed at 6. 17L/ 100km, which was further reduced compared with 6.25L/ 100km in the first half of the year, which was related to the length of time we started driving in eco mode in the later period. However, considering that there will be more hot weather in summer in the second half of the year, the use of air conditioners will be more serious, which proves that Zunrui's fuel consumption in summer will not increase too much because of turning on the air conditioner (as for whether the warm air has any effect on fuel consumption, I'm sorry that our winter is not cold enough ...).
This car has traveled nearly 27,000 kilometers so far, and we have carried out maintenance at 5,000 kilometers, 1000 kilometers and 20,000 kilometers respectively. Don't listen to the dealer's suggestion to change the oil after the first insurance, and stick to the instructions of 10000 km. Judging from the vehicle condition of the 1-20,000 km section, it is not a problem to set the oil change interval of this vehicle at110,000 km. We checked before the maintenance, and the oil volume decreased slightly, but it did not reach the level of alarm.
The basic cost of Zunrui's routine maintenance is about 776 yuan per 65,438+00,000 kilometers (the cost of materials is 496 yuan, and the cost of working hours varies from 230 to 280, which varies from region to region), but every even mileage (that is, 20,40,600 kilometers) is routine insurance, with more projects, and the cost of working hours rises to 450 yuan (the price of first-tier cities is like that of all cars) Zunrui is the first long-term test vehicle that we have enjoyed "great maintenance".
It is worth mentioning that in terms of cost, all maintenance costs of hybrid Zunrui in 4S shop are the same as those of conventional power Camry. Although there are many battery system inspection items, there is no extra charge. Maintenance is not more expensive than traditional cars, which is another advantage of Toyota hybrid compared with other emerging "efficient" power systems.
We know that many people are most concerned about the durability and reliability of the hybrid power system. Up to now, our Zunrui has not found any signs of power battery efficiency decline. The efficiency of battery charging during driving, the distance that can be driven when fully charged, and the time that the air conditioner can be turned on when parking are no different from those of a new car. It can only be said that a mere 30,000 kilometers is still too superficial to judge the durability of the Toyota hybrid system.
If we have to find out a change in the power system, it is that when the car stops or at a very low speed, the movement of the engine's automatic start-stop (the engine is forced to work when the power is low) tends to increase gradually, at least significantly greater than that of the new car when it is 5000 kilometers. After changing the oil for 20 thousand kilometers, the situation improved slightly, which shows that this is related to the state of the oil. But as far as the perfection of the whole power system is concerned, Zunrui's "state" is better than most conventional power vehicles we have tested for a long time.
The only thing that can be criticized about the condition of the car is that the paint on the rear bumper is a little different from the car body. We all agree that Zunrui's "pearl white" paint is very advanced and beautiful, but it seems that the stability of this car paint in different materials needs to be improved. The resin rear bumper paint is slightly yellow, which forms a little color difference with the white of the car body, and it will be more obvious to wash the car in the sun. There is also a Zunrui in our parking lot, which has the same phenomenon, so it is not an individual problem.
Reliability is "speechless": this car is running at present, and its steering, braking and chassis are the same as those of a new car (due to the improvement of tire changing and silent shock absorption), and there has never been any looseness and abnormal noise inside and outside. Up to now, the whole vehicle has not replaced/claimed a component, and all the equipment on the vehicle is running well, even without abnormal fault lights or electronic equipment crashing. Most of the above minor problems or conditions have occurred in the cars we tested for half a year, ranging from one to several. There are only a handful of vehicles that can hand over a clear "zero answer sheet" like Zunrui, and Zunrui's testing cycle is one year instead of half a year, and its reliability has been at the top of the new car review network since long-term testing. Hybrid cars are still a new thing. People who know it are well aware of its advantages, and people who don't know it dare not accept it. This factor has affected its second-hand price to some extent. This is the first time that we "peddled" a hybrid car in the second-hand car market. As a result, people kept the price down on the grounds that "this car is very unpopular" (of course, we often see the price reduction methods of second-hand car dealers, even if we don't say this reason, they will find other reasons). Even the person in charge of the used car department of Guangzhou Automobile Toyota 4S store, where we bought a car, replied that "your car is relatively unpopular, so the price ..."
