NetEase Auto reported on July 26 that the Territory is a brand-new urban SUV model created by Ford. It has won the favor of many users with its very high cost performance, good space, and hands-free intelligent interconnection. Today we are going to talk about the dynamic experience of the Territory. How does it drive?

■Good foundation: efficient power system

First of all, let’s talk about the Ford Territory engine, this EcoBoost The 145 turbocharged direct injection engine has a maximum power of 103 kilowatts and a maximum torque of 225 Nm. It has a Miller cycle with lower energy consumption and is equipped with a start-stop system as standard. These mainstream engine technologies help Territory’s power system work in a high-efficiency range, which can not only ensure power reserve, but also achieve good fuel economy.

Territory also provides a 48V mild hybrid system, which is a very popular mild "hybrid system" at present. For example, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, etc. have launched corresponding models. Simply put, it can be understood as an "enhanced engine start and stop system" System" can provide 10kW/54N·m of power at the start, which can make the start-stop system operate with less vibration and make energy recovery more efficient. The intuitive performance of the 48V system is the improvement of fuel consumption. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers under comprehensive operating conditions is as low as 6.3 liters, which is very economical.

In addition, Territory is not squeamish either. No. 92 gasoline can meet the needs of users. This is good news for those car enthusiasts who like to travel. After all, you can’t find No. 95 gasoline everywhere. No. 92 is easy to say.

The Territory automatic transmission model is equipped with a CVT continuously variable transmission. The continuously variable transmission changes the transmission ratio through a steel belt and easily allows the engine to work in the most efficient range. Therefore, its biggest feature is smoothness and economy, which also meets the positioning requirements of Territory family cars.

■Driving experience: Nengwennengwu

In actual driving, the 140-horsepower EcoBoost 145 turbocharged direct-injection engine is capable of pushing the boundaries with ease. Coupled with the good torque output platform of the turbocharged engine, it can output a peak torque of 225 Nm at 1,500 rpm, which is especially suitable for traveling in urban environments.

The CVT continuously variable transmission plays more of a supporting actor role. It ensures the fuel economy and smoothness of the entire power system - in our experience, it easily reaches a level close to the official fuel consumption, indicating that this power set still has great potential to be realized.

In terms of ride comfort, Territory is the only Ford model on sale equipped with a CVT gearbox. Due to the characteristics of the CVT itself, the actual power characteristics are significantly different from previous Ford models. The active and active motivation in the past is reflected in the territorial body.It becomes smoother and gentler, paying more attention to comfort.

As a very important aspect of family cars, NVH directly affects the driving experience of the occupants in the car. First of all, the noise and vibration of the Ford Territory's power system are very well controlled and the performance is excellent. Secondly, the NVH noise and vibration control performance of the Territory chassis still has Ford's capabilities, especially the shock absorbers' ability to handle rough road surfaces very well.

In addition to NVH, chassis comfort is also related to user evaluation. After all, the first thing a family car values ​​is comfort. The Territory has a MacPherson strut front and multi-link rear suspension. In actual driving, the vibration filtering performance of the chassis exceeds expectations. The suspension has gentle movements, is good at handling bumps quickly, and has a flexible feeling at the moment of rebound. It can form a good dynamic performance - it can achieve a balanced performance between control and comfort. The Territory can be said to be both civil and military.

■Active safety: comprehensively protected Co-Pilot360? Intelligent driving assistance system

To achieve good safety protection, active safety is the first step. Territory is equipped with Ford Co-Pilot360? Intelligent driving assistance system. This system consists of 13 radars (including millimeter-wave radar and ultrasonic radar) in the vehicle and 4 cameras, which can implement functions including ACC full-speed intelligent adaptive cruise, FCW forward collision warning, AEB automatic emergency braking, BLIS blind spot monitoring, APA active parking assistance and other functions. This system can not only comprehensively improve driving safety, but also greatly reduce the driving burden of car owners.

A good helper for long distances: ACC full-speed intelligent adaptive cruise

Everyone travels long distances, and driving is quite tiring. With ACC Speed ​​intelligent adaptive cruise can automatically adjust the distance and speed of the vehicle in front, without worrying about speeding or safety issues. It is very user-friendly - of course, ACC can also be used in urban areas, and the full-speed ACC cruise system can also allow more users driving in urban areas to enjoy convenience and safety.

Eye View Six Roads: 360-degree Panoramic Image Visibility System

Lingjie’s 360-degree panoramic image visualization system can not only observe the conditions around the vehicle, but also create a 3D stereoscopic image, making parking more convenient while also avoiding some accidents and ensuring active safety of driving.

There is a spectrum when merging: BLIS blind spot monitoring

There will be blind spots when merging while driving, especially in rainy and snowy weather or at night when visibility is not good, it is easy to cause accidental collisions. With the help of the BLIS blind spot monitoring system, Territory can remind the driver of the presence of other vehicles in the blind spot to avoid accidents and make merging more reasonable.

Avoid being distracted: LDW lane departure warning

Everyone driving on the road will occasionally be distracted due to fatigue or other reasons. If it deviates from the lane, it is quite dangerous. The LDW lane departure warning function equipped with Territory can remind the driver at this time - even if the driver does not turn around and merges into the lane, such irregular behavior can also be prompted, which is very particular.

A helper at critical moments: AEB automatic emergency braking + FCW forward collision warning

Accidents may occur from time to time on urban road conditions. For example, the car in front brakes suddenly, or a bicycle suddenly jumps out, which can easily lead to collisions. Ford Territory is equipped with FCW forward collision warning and AEB automatic emergency braking functions. When it detects that the vehicle may be involved in a collision, it will warn the driver. If the driver fails to take measures, the vehicle will automatically perform emergency braking to avoid accidents or minimize collision injuries.

Summary:

Based on years of accumulated car-making experience, coupled with advanced power system assembly, active and passive safety technology, and mature chassis tuning, Ford Territory has left a deep impression on people in terms of driving quality. It performs well in terms of handling, comfort and active safety, providing a high-quality driving experience for driving.
