Since the upgrade of the new Excelle is a small change at best, it doesn’t make much sense to introduce this familiar car too much. The following small series will explain the key projects of this upgrade.
● Highlight 1: Power/fuel consumption: 1.5L engine replaces 1.6L engine, 4AT is upgraded to 6AT, and fuel consumption is reduced.
The biggest highlight of the new Excelle is naturally the upgrade of this powertrain. The 1.6L engine that had been supported for many years before was replaced by Buick’s brand-new 1.5L DVVT inline four-cylinder engine. Although it dropped slightly, the output of 83kW(113PS)/6000rpm was slightly higher than that of the current 1.6L model. On the other hand, this 1.5L engine can reach a peak torque of 140Nm at 4000rpm. Matching this brand-new engine is a brand-new 6-speed automatic manual transmission and the existing 5-speed.
At the same time of power upgrade, the new car also has better fuel economy. According to the published data, the comprehensive fuel consumption of the new Excelle 1.5L DVVT manual transmission model is 6.6L/100km, and that of the automatic transmission model is 7.6L/100km, which is 1.1 liters and 0.4 liters lower than that of the old 1.6L manual and automatic transmission models, respectively.
● Highlight 2: The fine-tuning of appearance changes has become more atmospheric.
The appearance design of the new Excelle has changed a little, and the most obvious thing in the front face is that the lower air inlet has been changed from the original separated type to the integrated type connected with the fog lamp. Secondly, the structure of the internal lamp group of the headlight has been adjusted, and the crystal diamond ice blue of the new projection headlight is eye-catching. In addition, the new turn signal returned to the fender from the original rearview mirror.
There is basically no change in the rear of the car, and the full LED brake lights used before the taillights are replaced by ordinary halogen bulbs. On the models with different configurations, the biggest difference between the high-profile models and the low-profile models is the four probes on the rear bumper.
● Summary of vehicle highlights:Generally speaking, this time, the upgrade of the new Excelle is a medium-term small change, mainly aimed at improving the high fuel consumption problem that consumers have reported very commonly, but there is not much change in other aspects.
