ChinaSINOTRUK VGV VX7 is officially launched, with a price range of 112,800-119,800 yuan. It adopts a load-bearing body, taking into account the versatility of a pickup truck and daily driving, becoming a fun car that opens up more life scenes.
China National Heavy Duty TruckVGV positions VX7 as a "full-scenario passenger life pickup truck". Judging from its appearance, it has passenger-oriented characteristics. It's very obvious. The front face design of VX7 is very similar to that of the same model U75 PLUS, which is an SUV model. VX7 uses a larger hexagonal grille, which is supplemented by a black honeycomb grille inside. It is also equipped with two horizontal chrome trim strips. The headlights on both sides are also closely connected to the grille.
Perhaps in order to create a dynamic shape, the lines of the VX7 cargo box are not continued The trend of the waistline echoes the C-pillar to a certain extent, creating a dropped shape, which indeed makes the side of VX7 look a little more recognizable. In terms of body size, VX7's length, width and height are 5015/1870/1732mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2800mm. The size is not outstanding among pickup trucks.
Coming to the rear of the body, VX7 still does not follow the rules and put two small square taillights. Instead, it uses a complex design that runs through the extra body. This popular element makes it clear. The cargo box dimensions of the VX7 are 1114/1438/588mm, and the length is slightly shorter, but there are two features that are worthy of praise.
When you enter the car, if there is no explanation, you probably won’t think that this is the interior of a pickup truck, even as pickup trucks become more and more detailed. At the moment, the interior of this car can be considered particularly urban. In factVX7’s interior is completely derived from U75 PLUS, which can also explain its design style.
The full LCD instrument panel and large-size central control screen can be seen on the VX7, and its car Supporting the Internet of Vehicles, you can use online music/audiobooks and navigation, etc. It also supports original mobile phone interconnection, and its functionality keeps up with the times.
The air conditioning control area below uses touch buttons, which is theoretically enhanced. It has a sense of technology, but whether such a design is convenient and safe for a pickup truck remains to be discussed. In addition, other configurations visible to the naked eye include electronic handbrake, automatic parking, driving mode selection and knob-type gear shifting mechanism. Users will not feel uncomfortable switching from a passenger car to this car.
In terms of power, VX7 uses a combination of 2.0T gasoline turbocharged engine and 8AT gearbox, with a maximum power of 224 horsepower and a peak torque of 385 Nm. This engine, codenamed HY4C20B, comes from Great Wall Holdings' Honeycomb Yichuang. It is also installed on the Beijing BJ40, and its performance can be trusted. In addition, VX7 adopts a load-bearing body, and the suspension is a front MacPherson independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension, which is obviously biased The paved road setting will theoretically have better highway performance than a pickup truck with a non-load-bearing body.
