Facing the fiercely competitive Chinese automobile market, all major joint venture brands are launching pure-blood vehicles while customizing a “special supply” model that meets local characteristics for the Chinese market. In the eyes of many car enthusiasts, this “special supply” car is a product of compromise with the Chinese market. But the editor believes that the emergence of these “specially supplied” models also reflects the growing influence of the Chinese market.
In the field of family car segmentation, “special supply” models are emerging in endlessly. The working class who buy a family car for about 100,000 yuan have strict conditions for choosing a car. In addition to the price, the space and the quality of the car itself are also crucial. Therefore, under these factors, the joint venture “special supply” models have a strong competitive advantage. Today, the editor of Feilv Motors will show you two American “special supply” models that have just launched the new model and have a good reputation and high cost performance.

Speaking of the two American brands that have a strong reputation in the domestic market, it must be Ford and General Motors, and their product lineups each have “specially supplied” models belonging to the Chinese market, and the sales of the two cars are in Among the top compact models in the same class, they are the Ford Focus and Buick Hideo. These two models have their own characteristics. Ford Fireworks has conquered the hearts of many Chinese consumers at Changan Ford with affordable prices and appropriate and practical configurations. Each model of the past generations has the reputation of being a “home expert”. Weighed. Buick Hideo, with its sporty exterior design and chassis tuning, can be regarded as a “specially supplied” driving control car among American models. In terms of price, both models have different degrees of preferential strength. Because of the earlier change of Buick Hideo, the reference price of the 2021 Buick Hideo entry-level model with automatic transmission is around 80,000 yuan. And the Ford Fires is in the period of about to change models, so the preferential price is not too much. From the previous generations of Ford Fires’s preferential strength, we can see that after the new car has been on the market for a period of time, the reference sale of the entry-level model with automatic transmission is low. The price is basically around 55,000 yuan. So in terms of price, Ford Fireworks is even better. Atmosphere and sports, which value is more eye-catching? In appearance, both models have deeply studied the aesthetics of domestic consumers. Ford Firefly captures the characteristics of domestic consumers’ desire for luxury , It seems that Ferris is the most appropriate to describe the “Martin face” with the atmosphere and resistance, and the characteristics of the “Martin face” can meet the needs of most Chinese users for face. Buick Hideo has captured the demand of domestic consumers for younger car purchases, showing the characteristics of youth sports everywhere. Ford Fireworks adopts a brand-new family-style design language. The front grille area called “Star Curtain” is larger and larger than the old model. The two-color chrome-plated decorative strips in the interior look like a star point. It looks very layered. Strong. The full-LED headlights are no longer rounded, but become more slender and sharp. A penetrating chrome strip is connected to the left and right headlights, and the front face is more refined. In terms of the dimensions of the Ford Fireworks, the length, width and height are 4633/1825/1490mm, and the wheelbase is 2687mm. This performance is also the mainstream level in the same class of models. The rear of the car retains the small rear wing design of the old model, and the shape is uneven. The taillights also have a penetrating chrome trim to connect the long left and right taillights, keeping the height consistent with the headlight design. The 2021 Buick Hideo continues the design language style of the old model in the overall appearance. The polygonal center mesh with silver chrome decoration presents a very strong color family-style design. Buick Hideo used to be more sporty than the Ford Focus, which is exactly the opposite of the homely stable appearance pursued by models of the same level on the market. The side of the Buick Hideo is very round and full, without a sharp waistline running through it, and no exaggerated design. The side of the new car looks very pragmatic. The bulging shape of the roof can make up for the shortcomings of the lack of space for the car’s overhead view. The length, width and height are 4609/1798/1464mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2640mm. Such body size data performs well in the competition of the same level, and does not have the outstanding performance of the competing Ford Focus. Technology large screen or mechanical knob? Although the appearance has its own characteristics, the performance of the two cars in the car is more in line with the design of contemporary family cars. In contrast, the new generation of Forys has also made great improvements in the interior part. In summary, it is more modern and technological, and more in line with the current aesthetic trend. The Buick Hideo’s interior does not have too many designs, and it is more pragmatic in everything you see. Compared with the old model, the interior of the Ford Fire Earth-shaking changes have taken place.The new car takes the simple and technological “giant screen smart cockpit” as the theme, and has a huge facelift. The dual 10.25-inch floating dual screens look enough to be full of futuristic technology. The interior of the car is covered with a large number of soft materials and the color matching is full of fashion and vitality, creating an excellent visual and tactile feeling in the car. The interior design of the 2021 Buick Hideo does not have as many designs as Ford Fires, and the configuration functions that can be accessed are mainly practical. The traditional pointer instruments, rotary air-conditioning buttons and other configuration designs do not seem aesthetically pleasing, but the 7-inch touch screen barely touches technology. But for a sports-focused car, it’s the mechanical sense that makes it more tonal. Control and power to satisfy the family who is more fragrant? In terms of power and handling, Ford Fires’ power is obviously more dominant, but the chassis tuning performance is average, and Buick Hideo is not as powerful as Ford Fires, but its chassis control performance is extremely good. Ford Fireworks continues to be equipped with a 1.5L three-cylinder naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 122 horsepower and a peak torque of 152 Nm. The transmission system is matched with a 6-speed automatic manual gearbox. The power is definitely the best in its class, but out of consideration that the car users are family consumers, the chassis tuning of Ford Focus is not too radical. The combination of front Macpherson independent suspension and rear torsion beam non-independent suspension, under Ford’s excellent chassis tuning, is enough to meet the comfortable ride experience of daily travel, and it can also bring the driver due control. Although Buick Hideo’s power is not as outstanding as Ford Fireworks, the 1.5L four-cylinder engine has a maximum output of 113 horsepower and a peak torque of 141 Nm. But the performance of the four-cylinder is still a little more stable than that of the three-cylinder Fries. And in terms of controllability, Buick Hideo’s performance is more prominent, and it is the most equipped model in its class. Adopting front Macpherson + rear multi-link independent suspension, such a configuration is rare in the same level, The upper adjustment limit of the rear independent suspension is higher. The texture of the chassis is quite solid, and the suspension adjustment is soft. It can calmly cope with potholes and intense driving, giving the car a high-quality comfort performance. It is not difficult to see that if you want to survive in the domestic A-class car market, you need not only excellent product capabilities, but also a better understanding of domestic consumers’ car needs. And these two “exclusive” models, Ford Fireworks focuses on fashion, Buick Hideo focuses on control, All have their own distinctive characteristics. For less than 100,000 yuan, consumers can choose a family car that is both durable and unique. Buick Hideo and Ford Fires are indeed two choices that have performed well in this field.
