The contest between the new dark horse and the strength veteran, Kaiyi Xuanjie Pro VS Geely Binyue

In China, the popularity can be said to be enduring, and many young people will choose one as their first car in life. But different from the past, young people nowadays have higher and higher requirements for appearance and configuration. Not only must they have high face value, but intelligent technology should also keep up with the times. If the conditions are set within 100,000 yuan, then I believe that Kaiyi Xuanjie Pro and Geely Binyue will be two cars that young people can’t avoid. Indeed, these two SUVs have excellent product strength, and both rely on two powerful brands for technical backing. Compared with other competitions, they can stand out. Then, comparing these two cars, who will be stronger?

Xuanjie Pro and Binyue are both boutique SUVs with a main price of 100,000 yuan. Although the former has not been listed for a long time, it has become a shopping list for many people because of its excellent product strength and better understanding of young people’s interconnected thinking. The latter has long been in the forefront of the sales list at the same level, and its strong performance does not lose the popular joint venture models. At the same time, the price range of these two cars has a high degree of overlap, and its competitive intention is very obvious. In order to make the comparison fair and just, this time, the two models with similar prices are selected, and they are also the two most popular versions, namely, Xuanjie Pro 1.5T CVT Jinzun Edition and Binyue 1.4T DCT Diamond Edition, which are priced at 93,900 yuan and 96,800 yuan respectively.

Design: Xuanjie Pro is fashionable and exquisite, and Binyue is dynamic and radical.

First of all, from the appearance design, these two cars all adopt the latest design language of the brand, so the appearance value is designed to be relatively young. Among them, Xuanjie Pro adopts the latest design language of Kaiyi brand, and its overall appearance is very high, and it looks very dynamic and fashionable. The front face is based on simple and personalized design, and is equipped with upper and lower layered grille design. The upper grille is long and narrow, which is connected with the headlight groups with all LEDs on both sides. The lower grille conforms to the trend of modernization, and its area is larger than that of the previous dazzling world, and it is supplemented by lattice structure decoration inside, which makes it more exquisite in fashion.

Binyue is also a player with a high face value. It adopts the Geely ripple front face design, which has a very good recognition. The front grille uses a relatively flat shield-shaped mesh, and the red trim is added as an ornament. With the black painted "X" design, it looks very dynamic. The two sides of the net are connected with the angular headlight group through the black decorative board, which further enhances the integrity of the front face, but the headlight light source is halogen, and the visual effect is not as sharp as that of the LED headlights of Xuanjie Pro, and the exquisiteness of its front is not as good as that of Xuanjie Pro.

The side design of both cars is simple and capable, the body alignment is also very harmonious, and the roof adopts the popular suspension design, which is in line with the positioning of their young groups. In addition, in terms of wheels, both cars are very kind, equipped with large tires of 215/55 R18 specifications, but the styles of wheels are different. In contrast, the design of blade wheels and red sports calipers adopted by Xuanjie Pro has more visual impact than Binyue’s double five-spoke style.

The length, width and height of Xuanjie Pro are 4400×1831×1653 mm and the wheelbase is 2632mm respectively. Binyue has a length, width and height of 4330×1800×1609 mm and a wheelbase of 2600 mm.. In terms of body size, Hyun Jie Pro has an obvious leading edge, which is bigger than Bin Yue, which can be said to provide an innate advantage for its interior space.

The tail design of Hyun Jie Pro is full and layered, and its style is as dynamic and fashionable as the front of the car. Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the large-size hollowed-out tail wing designed on the rear roof, which looks like a high-performance car. The back-shaped penetrating LED taillights further add color to the rear of the car, which is a feature of Hyun Jie Pro in detail design. The slender "L"-shaped decorative pieces on both sides below echo the front of the car, and are equipped with exhaust ports on both sides, further enhancing the dynamic atmosphere of Hyun Jie Pro.

In contrast, Binyue’s design is too grandiose, the most obvious thing is that it matches the exhaust ports of the two sides, which seems to be very scary, but it is only used for decoration. Although Xuanjie Pro is designed with double air outlets, it is just right in visual effect, and the overall collocation is very reasonable. There are no exaggerated details, which gives people the feeling that the tail design is more attractive.

Interior quality: the performance of workmanship materials is equivalent, but Xuanjie Pro technology is richer.

After comparing the appearance, let’s take a look at the interiors of the two cars. The interior of Xuanjie Pro is rich in simple texture. Whether it is the outline of simple lines or the collocation of two-color leather materials, it creates more simple luxury. Binyue’s interior is very layered, and the central control area is distinguished by straight horizontal lines. In terms of materials used for work, both cars have shown their due standards, covered with a large area of soft materials, and with fine stitching technology, the details are handled in place, and the vision and touch are very good.

Xuanjie Pro central control is equipped with double 10.25-inch color LCD screens, including a full LCD instrument panel and a floating central control touch screen. The air conditioning area below has also been redesigned, and the operation buttons are all chrome-plated piano keys. The compact gearbox gear is more exquisite in shape, which complements the simple and textured atmosphere inside the car.

Binyue is also equipped with a large-size suspended central control panel, but the instrument panel is still a traditional pointer. This is not to mention the comparison with the dazzling Pro, even in the face of other competing products at the same level. As for the air-conditioning control area below, the key forms are different. In addition, both cars are equipped with in-car PM2.5 filter devices, which can effectively remove and block tiny particles, providing a fresh and healthy safe cockpit environment for the car.

In terms of configuration, Xuanjie Pro is equipped with keyless entry, one-button start, electronic handbrake, tire pressure monitoring, cruise control, lane departure warning, 360 panoramic image, automatic parking, steep slope descent, full LCD dashboard, central control touch screen, smart car networking, car navigation, mobile phone mapping screen projection, three USB charging interfaces in front and back, multi-function steering wheel, wireless charging of mobile phone, remote start and voice interaction.

The Binyue comparison model is only equipped with keyless entry, one-button start, electronic handbrake, tire pressure monitoring, 360 panoramic image, automatic parking, steep slope descent, central control touch screen, intelligent car networking, car navigation, three USB charging interfaces, multi-function steering wheel, remote start, voice interaction and other configurations. Compared with Xuanjie Pro, Binyue lacks lane departure warning, full LCD instrument panel, wireless charging of mobile phones, full leather electric seats, LED headlights and one-button lifting of full window glass, and its price is close to 3,000 yuan. Therefore, in terms of vehicle configuration, Hyun Jie Pro has better overall performance, richer configuration and higher cost performance.

Driving space: Xuanjie Pro seat is soft and advanced, and the rear space is more spacious.

In terms of comfort, Xuanjie Pro seat is wrapped in leather material, which is very thick and soft and comfortable to look at, while the two-color design and sports style make it look very advanced, and it is also equipped with six electric adjustments, which is comfortable and enhances convenience. Binyue’s seat is made of leather+fabric. Although the overall softness can meet expectations, it only supports manual adjustment in function, which is not as convenient and advanced as Xuanjie Pro.

In addition, thanks to the overall advantages of the body size of Xuanjie Pro, its overall seating space naturally wins without any suspense in theory, and through actual comparison, it can be seen that after the model with a height of 172cm adjusts her sitting posture in the front row, there is more than one punch in the head space and more than two punches in the leg space in the back row.

When the same model comes to Binyue, it can also have a better spatial performance, but it is slightly inferior to the dazzling Pro in the head space, but there is no problem in meeting the basic household needs.

Dynamic performance: Xuanjie Pro gold has good dynamic performance and better driving quality.

In terms of power, Xuanjie Pro is equipped with a 1.5T engine, which is matched with a CVT continuously variable gearbox that can simulate 9 gears. The maximum power of the engine is 156 HP and the maximum torque is 230 Nm. Binyue is equipped with a 1.4T engine, which is matched with a 6-speed dual-clutch gearbox. The maximum power of the engine is 141 HP and the peak torque is 235 Nm. As far as data is concerned, Xuanjie Pro has an advantage. In terms of chassis configuration, both cars adopt the combination of front McPherson independent suspension and rear torsion beam dependent suspension, which is common at this level.

In actual driving, the performance of Hyun Jie Pro is also better. First of all, it is very brisk to drive. Whether it is a static start or an accelerated overtaking, the strong power output of this 1.5T engine can easily meet your expectations. Secondly, Xuanjie Pro is matched with CVT gearbox, which has the inherent smoothness advantage. During the whole process of stepping on the accelerator, there will be no frustration and the power output is very linear. Finally, the gearbox also has a manual mode, which can simulate 9 gears to meet the occasional passionate driving and control needs.

Binyue’s driving experience is mainly lost in the equipped dual-clutch gearbox. In the process of low speed and rapid acceleration, Binyue will have obvious frustration compared with Xuanjie Pro. In addition, if it accelerates in the middle and high speed range, its power shortage will also be displayed. After all, the maximum power value is there, and the overall driving performance is relatively not as good as Xuanjie Pro.

Full text summary:As two high-quality SUV models with independent brands within 100,000 yuan, Kaiyi Xuanjie Pro and Geely Binyue actually have good overall performance, but through the hard-hitting product strength comparison, it can still be seen that Xuanjie Pro has more or less advantages in appearance value, interior quality, technology configuration, driving space and dynamic feeling, and its overall performance can better meet the needs of young people. As a hot-selling model at the same level, although Binyue’s brand awareness is higher, after all, it has been on the market for a long time. In the face of the new generation of dark horses, its strength is not anti-noise, and the higher price has prompted its comprehensive strength to be inferior to that of Hyun Jie Pro.
