Is it necessary to buy the 4WD version of Haval Big Dog?
2 Answers
Haval Big Dog belongs to the SUV category, with a vehicle weight exceeding 1.6 tons. If you pursue power, it is recommended to consider the 2.0T 4WD version. The relevant information about Haval Big Dog is as follows: 1. Exterior: In fact, the Big Dog is no longer a new car, but it still gives a fresh feeling every time you see it. The boxy body, retro headlights, and glossy black body cladding all give this car a wild look, even though it is an urban SUV. The large hexagonal grille + robust lower guard plate of the bumper maintain a tough appearance while also having a certain fashion sense; at the same time, the 2.0T model can also be equipped with an exclusive grille with only two chrome decorations, making it look even wilder. 2. Dimensions: The 2.0T model has a length, width, and height of 4628/1890(1910)/1780mm, respectively, with a wheelbase of 2738mm, slightly longer than the 1.5T model in terms of body length. The chrome decorations on the side skirts and the black shark fin on the roof are exclusive designs of the 2.0T model. 3. Configuration: The iconic circular retro headlights at the front use the now fully popularized LED light source, and a millimeter-wave radar required for the ACC adaptive cruise system is added below.
I see many people asking whether they should buy the Haval Big Dog with 4WD. From the perspective of urban commuting, I don't think it's necessary to choose 4WD. I usually commute to work in the city, and the 2WD version is sufficient for roads and highways, with lower fuel consumption, saving a lot on gas money each month. The 4WD system, on the other hand, increases the vehicle's weight, making daily acceleration a bit slower and turns less agile. Unless you frequently go to mountainous areas or places with a lot of snow, spending those extra tens of thousands isn't worth it. It's more useful to save that money for a good car wrap or tire maintenance. After all, the Haval Big Dog is essentially an urban SUV, positioned for easy driving, and the 2WD version won't have any problems even after several years of use.
