Jeremy has tested various off-road vehicles on top-gear many times. From his personal preference, the British-made Range Rover has always been his favorite. Repeated extreme road conditions tests have also proved that, Land Rover is indeed the leader in off-road vehicles, and Land Rover has always been his personal favorite brand. However, this time, he is looking forward to Dongchen's latest off-road vehicle. After the last test, he has become a Became Dongchen’s number one fan.
After c3c Jijijing was offline, Zhang Wenhao personally contacted Jeremy, and Jeremy's impression of Zhang Wenhao was that he had always been Long Xiaoyue's assistant, and was also the interface between the program team and Dongchen Automobile in his last episode. After receiving After Zhang Wenhao's confirmation email, Jeremy immediately communicated with the program team. They wanted to suspend the program currently being filmed and immediately start testing Dongchen's new SUV "Ji Jing".
The program planners quickly came up with a complete and detailed plan, which listed four test opponents of c3c, namely Land Rover Range Rover, Volkswagen Touareg, Porsche Cayenne, and BMW X5.
Among them, the Land Rover Range Rover is famous for its off-road performance, the Volkswagen Touareg has always flaunted its comprehensive adaptability, the Porsche Cayenne is known as the fastest SUV. And the BMW x5... It is said that its biggest advantage is waiting at a red light in the city When the time comes, the view of the signal light will not be blocked by the car in front...
According to the process, they will conduct a comprehensive comparative test of these five cars in the UK. The test content includes urban areas, highways, and passing ability demonstrations under multiple road conditions. The venues are London City, Jaguar Proving Ground, and the British** There is also a tank proving ground in the country, and the Crescent City, the off-road holy place in southern England.
Zhang Wenhao had no objections to the testing process, but he expressed his opinions in the email he replied to Jeremy. He had no objections to the first three comparison models. However, he asked the program team to prepare top-end versions of these three models. , as for the BMW x5, it feels basically the same as the Touareg, so Zhang Wenhao asked the program team to replace the x5 with the x5m.
Jeremy readily accepted Zhang Wenhao's request and gave a specific time. Three days later, Dongchen carried the latest c3c to London Airport.
When Zhang Wenhao and his staff arrived at London Airport with c3c, Zhang Wenhao was still as in the last show, fully equipped with hats, masks, and sunglasses. After meeting with Jeremy and others, the program team arranged for everyone to stay in central London. One night. Early the next morning, everyone went to the airport to pick up the C3C and headed to Jaguar's test track in northwest London.
Since there has already been a cooperation, this time the program team respected Zhang Wenhao's opinion. The c3c's first appearance was still not at the airport, but at Jaguar's test track. However, because of the respect of the program team, this time, c3c was not installed. into the container. Instead, it was exposed in front of the program crew for the first time directly at the airport.
The debut of c3c is still as stunning as s3c. Her appearance is enough to make people have many kinds of reveries. Looking at the side, this is a very streamlined SUV. It seems that it should be positioned the same as the Cayenne. It is a stylish car. It is an urban SUV with speed as its main element. However, if you look at the front face, the domineering grille of this car and the fierce lights on both sides indicate that this car is not a character that is easy to mess with.
Jeremy looked at the front of the car and exclaimed: "Looking at the front of this car, I even have the feeling that even if I stand on a steep mountain, it can still rush to me. This car... It’s just too good for my taste!”
Even Charlie and James next to them nodded frequently. The three of them walked around the back of the car and looked at the shape of the rear of the car. They all exclaimed: "Those two words should be in Chinese, right? The fonts look very free and easy. These two What does the word mean?"
Zhang Wenhao smiled and said: "These two words are pronounced as extreme realm in Chinese." Then Zhang Wenhao explained the meaning of extreme realm to the three of them.
James May blurted out: "Just from the name, it means that the person who comes is not good!"
Zhang Wenhao said with a smile: "When this car arrives at the test track, you will be able to find out!"
The team took the trailer to the test track for three hours. When they arrived at the test track, four SUVs had been waiting side by side for a long time at the starting point of the test track. These four vehicles were 5.0 supercharged vehicles. The Land Rover Range Rover, the 3.0 supercharged Volkswagen Touareg, the 4.8 supercharged Porsche Cayenne turbo-s, and the 4.4 turbocharged BMW m.
Except for the Volkswagen Touareg, the engine output horsepower of these four models has reached about 550 horsepower, which exceeds the 510 horsepower of the 3.0 twin-turbocharger, and the displacement is at least 50% higher than that of the 3.0. However, it doesn't matter even if some models have higher power than the C3C Extreme. The advantages of the transmission system will narrow this gap and even lead to catching up.
Land Rover and Jaguar come from the same family. Even the test track is universal. Almost every Land Rover four-wheel drive model is tested here. Therefore, Jaguar itself also attaches great importance to this test. They want to see it with their own eyes. Let’s take a look at what kind of strength China Dongchen Automobile has in SUVs and whether it will have an impact on its own business.
Straight-line acceleration ability is the first part of the test. Five cars will go hand in hand at the 38th mark, all using automatic transmission, and all driving modes will be adjusted to sports. Under such circumstances, the requirements for the driver's own strength are not high. Therefore, this test can be said to be very fair.
The program team planned a 500-meter straight line, 100 meters, 300 meters and 500 meters, and took high-speed photos and countdowns at three locations to see which of the five cars started the fastest and which one finished in the second half. The process acceleration capability is better.
Zhang Wenhao already has the answer in his mind. The other four cars may be slightly more powerful than the C3C. However, the response speed of their gearboxes is a bit slower than that of Dongchen's gearbox. In addition, Dongchen's gearbox has a negative impact on the car. The state of power output is controlled very accurately. Therefore, it must be better than other cars in terms of speed increase.
Jeremy drove the C3C himself, Charlie chose the BMW X5M, and James May chose the Porsche Cayenne, because the latter two cars are among the fastest-accelerating SUVs in their minds. As for Touareg and Land Rover, there is no difference. There is no doubt that they will lose at the very beginning.
The indicator lights on the track entered the countdown stage, and the engines of several cars made loud roars. Several high-definition cameras were waiting on the side of the track, and precise countdown equipment was also ready. As the green light turned on, the five cars Start at the same time.
Just at the moment of starting, the front of the C3C Jiji was the first to rush out from the five cars. The response of the transmission system to power was surprisingly fast. Within fifty meters, the C3C was half a body ahead of the Cayenne next to it.
The BMW x5m lags even further behind, almost being surpassed by the entire car body of the c3c.
The starting speed is surprising. However, the dynamic performance of each car is different. The dynamic response of some cars tends to be better in the first half of the journey, and some cars accelerate better in the second half of the journey.
However, in front of the c3c, whether it is the first half or the second half, it is its strength. This is due to the continuous power output of the engine and the quick response of the gearbox. Although it cannot be compared with high-performance sports cars, it is different from these four-wheel drive.
Compared with other SUVs, the advantages are still very obvious.
Many people have great hopes for the Cayenne. The Cayenne's power output is very balanced and its acceleration performance is strong. With sufficient power, it shouldn't be a problem to catch up with the 3.0 C3C in the second half.
But the situation is not as imagined. The power output of the c3c shows no sign of weakness. Instead, it becomes more and more powerful. The twin turbochargers make the pressure in the engine reach a high-pressure state that ordinary cars cannot reach. The speed continues to increase.
When the car leaped over the 100-meter mark, the Cayenne had already been stripped of its entire body, while the BMW had been completely surpassed by the C3C!
By 200 meters, there is no need to continue this acceleration test! Because the c3c is already far ahead, at least 6 meters beyond the Cayenne, and the BMW x5m is still embarrassingly chasing in vain. As for the Range Rover and Touareg, they are no longer able to compete
The first three cars appear in the same camera view.
The c3c went all the way, and when it crossed the 500-meter line, the Cayenne was already thrown away by more than 20 meters, and the BMW x5m was thrown away by more than 30 meters.
Jeremy took the lead to get out of the car and said to the other two hosts with a proud look on his face: "Am I right? Dongchen will definitely give me another surprise, but this surprise is too surprising.
At least this C3C can be regarded as the car with the best acceleration performance among SUVs. Remember, there is no one!"
James May said with a depressed look: "I really can't believe that the 3.0 twin-turbocharged car is more powerful than the top Cayenne!"
Jeremy smiled and said: "Although it is in D gear, when the c3c shifts into gear, it is so smooth that you can hardly feel it, and there is no sense of frustration. The gear change is completed almost instantly, so fast.
The shifting speed makes it impossible for the likes of the Cayenne to compare with it. Even if the Cayenne is more powerful than the C3C, it cannot compare with it in terms of speed, because the Porsche's transmission system is much slower than the C3C!"
Charlie on the side said: "I think it is no longer necessary to conduct the next steering performance comparison test. Last time we have experienced Dongchen's four-wheel drive performance. When turning at high speed, the controllability is unparalleled. Now
, Dongchen has applied this four-wheel drive system to this C3C, and we can already imagine how excellent this car will be when turning."
Jeremy smiled mysteriously: "It's different, Charlie. The suspension system of the s3c is not adjustable, but the c3c is different. Like many SUVs, the suspension system of the c3c can be adjusted. Not only
It is so simple to adjust the height manually. If it is set to automatic, the suspension system will be integrated with the four-wheel drive system. When you turn, the suspension will also change the height of the left and right car bodies, allowing you to corner more smoothly at different heights. You don't have to
I am worried that large-angle steering will cause rollover at high speeds. Although it is impossible to completely avoid rollover, it is still much better than other vehicles."
"God..." James May said with a look of amazement: "Did the Chinese get future technology? What Dongchen created is simply unbelievable!"
"Yes." Charlie shook his head and said: "It seems that the whole world has been outclassed by the Chinese overnight. Their engines have embarrassed all the car manufacturers around the world. Their four-wheel drive system has made all four-wheel drive vehicles
The company is embarrassed. Their gearbox even puts Bugatti, which cost three million pounds, to shame."
Jeremy laughed and said: "The Volkswagen Group must be very depressed now. They have the most complete product line, and now their Cayenne has been defeated by the C3C..." After that, he asked Charlie: "Charlie. I
I'm a little confused, if the Cayenne loses its speed advantage, then what's the point of its existence?"
"I don't know." Charlie shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Maybe the Cayenne can also sell the Porsche brand and its appearance."
Jeremy smiled and said: "Looking at it now, the Porsche Cayenne and BMW
The Touareg is good in every aspect but not perfect in every aspect, and I don’t have any hope for it anymore.”
Immediately, the five cars entered the top speed performance test, and five drivers accelerated the five cars on a straight line. They accelerated to the maximum speed of the car to test the top speed performance of each model.
The first one to be tested was the Porsche Cayenne. After accelerating for several kilometers, the top speed of the Cayenne remained at 295 kilometers and could no longer be improved.
Secondly, it is BMW's flagship performance car, which is the "m" that is very popular among consumers. The maximum speed limit of the x5m is 250 kilometers. After the speed limit was lifted, its status did not surprise anyone. The top speed was only
There are 261 kilometers.
The bloated Range Rover is even weaker, with a top speed of only 230 kilometers.
As for the Touareg, its only advantage is that it is comprehensive and average, with a top speed of 248, which is neither high nor low, but its price is there, and no one can force it. Bringing it here is nothing more than a foil. In addition,
Compare the c3c. In this way, the comparison objects of the c3c include the Land Rover that focuses on off-roading, the Cayenne that focuses on top speed, and the x5m that focuses on handling. The comprehensive comparison object is the Touareg.
The last top speed test was the c3c Jiji driven by Jeremy. This time, two fixed cameras were still installed in the car, the same as when the s3c was tested last time.
Jeremy sat in the cab and smiled: "I don't even have to doubt that the c3c will definitely win the top speed test. Do you want to know the reason? The reason is on the speedometer. Its top speed is marked at 300 kilometers, and I think
, Dongchen will never let the car’s true top speed be lower than the highest index of the speedometer.”
As he spoke, he pressed the interaction button on the steering wheel, which integrated two interactive systems, a1 and a2. Jeremy said: "Please set the mode to sports mode. In addition, if the vehicle speed exceeds 200
After one kilometer, report to me every ten kilometers."
After speaking, Jeremy smiled at the camera and said: "The interactive system of this car is different from the A1 interactive system of s3c. You will know the specific differences later."
Immediately, Jeremy connected his iPhone to c3c, then pressed the interaction button again and asked: "Help me check the information of the next Premier League game."
Since the 3G network in the UK is very developed, the speed of mobile phone connection to the Internet is very fast. In almost two seconds, the interactive system replied: "The next Premier League match is at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon. The two sides are Manchester United and Liverpool.
"
Jeremy smiled excitedly and said: "I like Manchester United. Manchester United is great. Which player is your favorite?"
The interactive system replied in a humorous tone: "I like Little Pea, he is very cute."
Jeremy asked again: "Which stadium will the game be played at? Are there any tickets left?"
The interactive system quickly answered: "The game is Manchester United vs. Liverpool at home, so the home game is at Old Trafford. As for the remaining tickets, I regret to tell you that according to the latest ticketing situation at Old Trafford, all tickets are currently available.
It’s sold out. Would you like me to check it out on a second-hand website for you?”
Jeremy exclaimed and smiled: "You are great! Please help me check it out."
After about four seconds, the interactive system replied: "I found a transfer information on eBay. Do you want me to dial the other party's phone number for you?"
Jeremy smiled at the screen and said: "Did you see it? Can you imagine it? When you bought a car, you also bought an omnipotent personal secretary. When other car companies saw this video
When the time comes, should I review myself?”
At this time, Jeremy raised his eyebrows and smiled, saying: "I won't waste time here. Let's see what kind of speed this C3C Extreme can reach!"
The c3c sprang out like an arrow from the string. The eight-speed transmission kept shifting and the speed kept rising. Jeremy exclaimed excitedly: "It's already two hundred in the blink of an eye. The strong power and sensitive response almost made me forget it."
This is an SUV!"
"Two hundred and five!" Jeremy roared, "The car is extremely stable at this moment!"
"Three hundred! Cayenne and x5m have been defeated!"
"Three hundred and one! Another hit!"^-^^-^
