2017 2.4L Automatic 2WD GLS 5 Seaters
Satisfaction: The car body is spacious and comfortable, the appearance is masculine, the power is sufficient and the output is continuous, the fuel consumption is low, and the self-priming engine requires no worry in the later maintenance.
Dissatisfaction: I am most satisfied with the space and appearance. The design of the seven-seater car has space for five seats, leaving a spacious trunk. A family of three often goes on weekend outings, which is more than enough to load supplies. In addition, the hidden storage space in the trunk is very reasonable. If used well, opening the trunk door will always give people a clean and tidy impression. The appearance is also very good. I don't like the rounded appearance of SUVs. The appearance of this car is angular, exuding a masculine vibe, which is also a point I am very satisfied with.
Space: The interior space is spacious and comfortable, and the storage space is reasonably designed, which fully meets my daily car needs.
Power: I've been driving this 2.4 model for the past few days. Mainly because it's a new car, I'm reluctant to floor the accelerator. The power feels steady and sufficient, and the output is continuous and stable. I can easily overtake a car on my daily commute without any hesitation.
Fuel Consumption: have had the car for 7 days now. After all the values were reset to zero, I filled a tank of gas. Most of the time, I was doing static ignition tests and setting some parameters of the car. I have driven 300 kilometers normally and the fuel consumption meter shows 11. I mainly commute to and from get off work in the city. Each trip is less than 10 kilometers and there are traffic lights at various intersections. It is expected that after a few outings in the future, the fuel consumption can be reduced to about 10. During the running-in period and in this kind of car usage environment, I am very satisfied with the fuel consumption.
Appearance: The appearance is what I am most satisfied with. It is wide, domineering and angular. My personality is rough and bold, so this car is perfect for me. However, the workmanship is not perfect. Some seams at the rear are too large, and there is still asymmetry between the left and right. The paint is relatively thick, and the reflectivity can be clearly seen when compared with some cars under strong light. It is recommended that this car should be equipped with more LED lights to keep up with the market rhythm.
Interior: The interior of this car is not high-end, but it is also at an upper-middle level. Some of the hard plastic settings are glossy, and they are not bad if you take good care of them. The new car has a slight odor inside, but it has been hot these few days, and the odor has basically disappeared after being exposed to the sun and opening windows and doors for some air. There was no abnormal noise during the driving on normal paved and bumpy roads.

Satisfaction: First of all, I am quite satisfied with the price. Such a big car can be bought for less than 200,000 yuan, and the configuration is acceptable. I think it is quite good. Secondly, it feels good to sit up. The softness and hardness of the shock absorption are very suitable. Although it is not as tough as the German ones, it is still stronger than the Japanese ones to my surprise. It is really much more convenient to have the third row. You can use it when you need to pull people. When you don’t need it, just fold down the third row, and the trunk space will become very large.
Dissatisfaction: Although I think the interior design of KX7 is better than Outlander, it is not much better. The workmanship and materials are so-so. The consequence of the so-so workmanship is that there may be some abnormal noises at any time. The center console and sunroof have made noises several times. Now the sound is not too loud. I can cover it up by playing music, so I am too lazy to deal with it. Even if it is used as a five-seater car, the fuel consumption of KX7 is still a bit high. The recent oil price is not cheap, and it is a bit painful every time I refuel.
Space: I am quite satisfied with the space of KX7, otherwise I would not have chosen it. This car is tall and big, and with the panoramic sunroof, there is no need to worry about the headroom, and the vision is also very clear. The second row of seats is not fixed in a dead position to save costs, but can be adjusted forward and backward according to your needs, which is very convenient to use. The space in the third row is a bit cramped, but it is still no problem for short-distance travel. After folding down the third row, the trunk space becomes very large and relatively flat, and can hold a lot of things.
Power: think the power of KX7 is quite good in the same level. Although the body size is not small, it is equipped with a 2.0T engine. The same level of engines are either 2.0L or 1.5T, and there are even three-cylinder engines. KX7 has a big advantage in hardware. Usually, you just need to step on the accelerator to overtake. Although the gearbox does not use dual clutch, the shifting speed is not fast, but it is quite smooth to drive.
Fuel Consumption: Maybe it's because I'm more exposed to five-seater cars, or maybe it's because I haul a lot of stuff. I'm actually quite disappointed with the fuel consumption of the KX7. The fuel consumption in daily driving is almost 12L. I'll have a chance to drive on the highway to see if it can be reduced.
Appearance: I think the appearance is the advantage of Korean cars. Although the model of my car is not new, I still think the appearance is not outdated and is very attractive.

Satisfaction: Because I bought the top version, the configuration is quite good. Adaptive cruise control, electric adjustment of the main driver's seat, panoramic sunroof, basically everything you need. The rear seats can be folded down, and they are completely flat after folding down. The 2.0T engine feels good to drive, and the power is available at any time. One advantage of the abundant power is that it will not be difficult to drive such a large body, and the fuel consumption is naturally low, even more fuel-efficient than some domestic 5-seater SUVs.
Dissatisfaction: I chose to buy KX7 because I had a good impression of Forte. I thought they were of the same brand and the quality must be similar. But KX7 has a lot of minor problems. At first, one of the speakers was broken and didn't make any sound. Later, I went to the 4S shop to replace it. For a while, I felt that the car was very dirty and full of dirt, but all the windows were closed. Later, I checked and found that the sunroof seal was not fixed. I am glad that key components such as the engine and gearbox have not had any problems since I drove it.
Space: The space is worth praising. Despite the relatively large body size, the seats are not fixed, and the second row of seats can still be adjusted forward and backward. The two rows of seats at the back are flush when fully folded down, so you don't have to worry about things sliding around when you put them. However, the space of the third row of seats is still not comparable to that of MPVs. Adults can't sit there for too long, and can only be used for emergency purposes. When there are few people in the car, the third row of seats can be folded down, so that the trunk is empty.
Power:
Fuel Consumption: I mostly drive on normal roads. The car can run well, but I will occasionally encounter traffic lights. The overall fuel consumption is about 9L.
Appearance: There are a lot of chrome parts on the exterior, which makes it look more upscale. The luggage rack is already there when it leaves the factory, so you don't have to install it yourself. What I like most is actually the dual exhaust at the rear, which has just the right visual effect. Nowadays, many new cars use quad exhausts regardless of horsepower, which is a bit too much.
Interior: The interior is a "three-stage design" in my own words, with the display screen at the top, the air-conditioning vents in the middle, and the button operation area for various functions at the bottom. It is very easy to use.
