Does the Trumpchi GS7 have a 4WD version?

Trumpchi GS7 does not have a 4WD version, as all models of this vehicle are front-wheel drive. Front-wheel drive is a power distribution method where the engine only drives the front pair of wheels. The engine is typically installed transversely, meaning the arrangement of the cylinders is perpendicular to the direction of the car's movement. Both the engine and transmission are usually located at the front of the vehicle. The Trumpchi GS7 is a 5-seater mid-size SUV launched by GAC Trumpchi, with dimensions of 4730mm in length, 1910mm in width, and 1770mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2720mm. The interior design adopts a family-style approach, featuring imitation carbon fiber panels on the center console and both door handles. It comes with dual circular dials paired with a 7-inch color LCD screen, and a leather-wrapped four-spoke steering wheel with integrated buttons for cruise control and multimedia functions on both sides.

I drive the Trumpchi GS7 in its 4WD version, and I chose it because I enjoy weekend road trips to the mountains and wanted more stability during rain or snow. The 4WD model of the Trumpchi GS7 features an on-demand four-wheel-drive system. It primarily operates in front-wheel drive on city roads to save fuel, but automatically switches to 4WD mode when slippage is detected, enhancing safety. I compared it with the 2WD version—the 4WD costs about 20,000 RMB more, but the handling is significantly better, especially when climbing or off-roading, and there's less body roll during high-speed cornering. Maintenance-wise, just an annual check-up for the driveshaft is needed, which isn't too troublesome. If you frequently drive on rough or pothole-ridden roads, 4WD is definitely a worthwhile investment.

As a frequent driver of GAC Motor vehicles, the Trumpchi GS7 does indeed offer a 4WD version, such as its top-tier model or certain specific model years. The 4WD system is called AWD Plus, known for its quick response and strong adaptability. It saves fuel on regular roads and provides anti-slip and anti-stuck capabilities in rainy or snowy conditions. In terms of price, the 4WD version is slightly more expensive than the 2WD version, but it delivers more balanced power output and shorter braking distances, making it safer for family trips. I’ve also noticed that after installing off-road tires, the 4WD performs well on muddy roads, though fuel consumption may increase slightly. It’s advisable to weigh your budget and needs.

I used the all-wheel-drive version of the Trumpchi GS7 for a while, and what impressed me most was its solid chassis that didn't bounce around. Its on-demand AWD automatically distributes power on slippery roads to prevent loss of control; when driving on highways, the system engages quickly, saving the hassle of manual switching. Compared to the two-wheel-drive version, the AWD has more powerful acceleration and makes climbing hills easier, but there's not much difference in daily city fuel consumption unless you're doing serious off-roading. Tire wear needs regular checks; I think this car is suitable for users in northern regions or those with frequent long-distance needs, as its stability is a plus.
