As an owner who has driven both the Borui and Borui GE, I believe the biggest difference lies in their powertrain systems. The Borui is a pure gasoline car equipped with a 1.8T engine, with relatively high urban fuel consumption at around 9 liters per 100 kilometers; it has quick acceleration response but is a bit noisy. The Borui GE is a PHEV (plug-in hybrid electric vehicle) version that can be both charged and refueled, with low fuel consumption of only about 2 liters per 100 kilometers, and the electric boost during acceleration is smooth and quiet. The GE also supports new energy license plates, allowing unrestricted driving in cities with traffic restrictions. However, the GE is 20,000 to 30,000 yuan more expensive, has a smaller trunk due to battery placement, and requires maintenance that includes motor checks. For long-distance driving, the Borui is more convenient for refueling, while for daily commuting, the GE is more economical and environmentally friendly. The choice between the two depends on budget and driving habits.
