The diversification of Bitauto’s original careers and interests has become one of the hallmarks of today’s young people. This is also reflected in the product positioning of various industries for young consumers. Spending every penny wisely is an important factor for many consumers. car buying criteria. Chevrolet obviously understands young people, and the Star Milo they recently brought illustrates this point well. The fashionable and avant-garde exterior design, the easy-to-use Xiaoxue OS car system, and the remarkable powertrain performance make this car a very practical choice at this price point. We also went to the 4S store as soon as the new car was released to see how this "Volume King" real car of the same class is like.

The price of the new car has been officially announced a few days ago. The price of 139,900-164,900 yuan is lower than we previously expected. The vehicle has now arrived in the store. The test cars and exhibition cars are mainly in Aurora Blue and Edge Gold, and the configurations are all top-of-the-line models.

Appearance interpretation: trendy, fashionable and powerful

The new car is Chevrolet's new compact SUV, positioned between the Transcendence and Explorer. The Chinese name of Star Milo was released on September 1st. It was officially chosen through online voting. It will indeed be more memorable than the previous "Creator X" or "XX Person". After all, everyone knows the legend of Chevrolet. Sports car Camaro.

The model we are actually shooting this time is the RS version, and we are all familiar with the RS appearance package. When I was interpreting Star Milo before, I really liked the current set of RS design elements that have both a sense of power and fashion. However, this time Star Milo has gone a step further in the appearance design of Star Milo and adopted obsidian black. The hexagonal honeycomb electroplated grille and the red logo exclusive to the RS model are of course not absent.

The ultra-long electroplated grille trim runs through the entire front of the car, and combined with the LED headlights and Xingyao daytime running lights on both sides, it not only inherits the existing Chevrolet family design, but also makes it more imposing and recognizable. To stand out.

There are many blackened elements in the entire vehicle, such as the huge air intake grille on the front face, the front lip, the edges of the light clusters, the exterior mirror shells on the sides, the luggage rack on the roof, the taillight clusters... the appearance of the entire vehicle The sports atmosphere given is very strong. However, the rims on the side are not blackened like many brands. In fact, I think that the right chrome elements on the car body can reflect a more refined feel. The car's body color itself is quite lively, and the bright-colored wheels can actually enhance this temperament.

In terms of body size, the Star Malo reaches 4537/1823/1562mm and the wheelbase is 2700mm. Compared with the Qashqai and T-ROC models at the same price, it is quite advantageous, especially in terms of wheelbase and body. In terms of length.

The side shape of the vehicle is also excellent. Chevrolet rarely uses a through-type waistline. They are used to flowing elegant shapes through the side of the body.The surface changes to create a sense of agility in the car body. The wider shoulder line and slender front end highlight the swooping stance, and the vehicle's body height is also relatively low, giving it a somewhat crossover style.

Star Milo uses five-spoke two-color wheels with a size of 18 inches. The matching tires are 225/55 R18 Continental UC6, which focus on quiet performance and comfort, and are more suitable for urban working conditions.

At the rear of the vehicle, the inverted T-shaped profile is very conspicuous, and the lines of the taillights on both sides are also visually unified with the lines of the rear of the vehicle. The blackened taillights and large spoiler enhance the dynamic look, and the bottom of the rear of the car is covered with a large black guard panel.

In general, the appearance of the Star Milo has both heritage and innovation, but it will obviously have more fashion attributes and appearance recognition than other existing Chevrolet models. Of course, the real-life model has beautiful paint. Color will also add a lot of points.

Interior Interpretation: Excellent practicality combined with dynamic technology

The interior of the Chevrolet Star Milo is officially called the Dynamic Digital Technology Cockpit. Judging from the naming, the new car mainly wants to convey a sense of sportiness and technology to consumers.

We are not unfamiliar with the interior layout of the vehicle. The two 10.25-inch gradient dual screens have excellent display effects. At the same time, the entire driving platform is tilted 9° toward the driver, making our daily operations easier. For convenience.

Xiaoxue OS, which is used in car-machine systems, has made great progress in UI interface and intelligence. This car and computer system is equipped with the CarPlay function as standard, which is absolutely praiseworthy. We also know that many consumers who are accustomed to the CarPlay function can get a good car and computer experience without spending any learning costs.

However, relatively speaking, I think there is no problem with the ease of use of the Xiaoxue OS system. At the same time, the system supports remote OTA upgrades, and the localized smart audio and video, navigation, and voice system experiences are all very good. The usage scenario of the voice system is mainly focused on navigation. Star Mailo is more accurate in recognizing place names and supports multiple rounds of continuous dialogue and semantic recognition. From the perspective of user experience, the basic level of the Star Mailo voice system has reached the first echelon of joint venture brands.

The new car uses a lot of red trim strips in the interior design of the vehicle, which creates a very good sense of combat inside the vehicle. In addition, it is necessary to mention the starMilo's air outlet design has an outstanding sense of refinement.

In terms of seating space, an experiencer with a height of 167cm sits in the main driver's seat of the Star Milo. After adjusting the seat to the lowest position, the experiencer's head has about a punch of space. The space performance in the back row is also good. The head and leg room of the experiencer are 2 punches and more than 2 punches respectively. The space is still quite spacious.

In addition, with the flat rear floor design, the comfort of three people in the rear seat is also guaranteed.

In terms of power, the Chevrolet Star Milo is equipped with SAIC-GM’s eighth-generation Ecotec 1.5T four-cylinder engine, with a maximum power of 135kW/5500rpm, a maximum torque of 250N·m/1500-5000rpm, and an acceleration of 100 kilometers per hour in 7.9 seconds. The engine parameter ratio Civic 1.5T still has a slight advantage. In terms of transmission, the engine is matched with a CVT gearbox that can simulate 7 speeds.

Previously, our colleagues visited the GM 1.5T engine technical seminar, and I also test-drove and experienced the Verano Pro, which was the first to be equipped with the same power, so I was very impressed by this set of power. The engine has a 35Mpa high-pressure in-cylinder direct injection system, ATM thermal management system, Dual Fast camshaft phase adjustment system, water-cooled intercooler system, etc., and supports engine controller software and calibration OTA upgrades.

Excellent book data and excellent actual experience. The starting power response is positive, and as the throttle is deepened, the power continues to surge. During continuous acceleration, the throttle and brake adjustments are very linear, and there will be no abrupt or obvious foot feel. In short, it gives the driverThe first impression is very good and makes people want to try more.

Editor's comment: As a brand new product in the Chevrolet market segment, the launch of Star Milo satisfies those young people who advocate trends and know how to live a good life. The new car's competitors are models such as Qashqai and Tange. It has certain advantages in terms of size, power, and space. More importantly, it will indeed do better than these models in terms of cabin intelligence that young people care about. For excellence. Star Milo's recent models have become more popular, even surpassing evergreen models like Haoying, which shows that the market is still very concerned about and optimistic about this car.
