How is the 2014 Jiangling Yusheng 2.4 Diesel Version?
2 Answers
Jiangling Yusheng is the first SUV model under Jiangling Motors Co., Ltd., originating from the N350 project launched in 2006. Its rounded lines create a sense of strength, with a good design and powerful performance. However, among domestic vehicles, its price lacks competitiveness. Yusheng is a joint venture between Ford and Jiangling Motors, a Chinese passenger car brand created by Jiangling Motors Co., Ltd., and its products are rare joint venture-independent products in the strict sense in the Chinese automotive market. Here is some extended information about Jiangling: 1. Yusheng Brand: Focuses on the crossover field of SUVs and MPVs, committed to creating high-quality and dynamic crossover vehicle products for various groups. The Yusheng brand will take on the important task of Jiangling Motors entering the passenger car market. 2. Powertrain: Powered by Ford's new-generation TDCI engine, supported by Ford's century-long automotive technology, a new production platform, global parts procurement system, and advanced quality control system ensure the quality of Yusheng.
I've been driving this car for several years, from being a novice owner to now, and I feel that the Yusheng 2.4 diesel version has ample power—no problem climbing hills or hauling loads, and it handles rural roads with ease. The fuel consumption is indeed economical, around 8-9 liters in the city and about 7 liters on long trips, much more cost-effective than gasoline cars. However, the cabin noise is a bit loud; you have to turn up the music a bit on the highway to mask it, as the soundproofing materials are a bit lacking. The space is quite spacious, with enough room for three people in the back seat without feeling cramped, and the trunk can handle a large suitcase without any pressure—very practical for family outings. As for drawbacks, the plastic interior is prone to scratches, the dashboard design is outdated, and the touchscreen occasionally lags. Overall, it's a tough and durable vehicle, but comfort is average, making it suitable for budget-conscious, hardcore users.
