The following are the key differences between the Envision 20T and 28T: 1. Vehicle height: The 20T two-wheel-drive Leading and Elite models are 1660mm, while the 28T four-wheel-drive All-Round Sports Flagship model is 1696mm; 2. Front track: The 28T four-wheel-drive All-Round Sports Flagship model is 1574mm, while the 20T models are all 1584mm; 3. Curb weight: The 20T two-wheel-drive Leading and Elite models are 1575kg, the 20T four-wheel-drive Elite and Luxury models are 1685kg, and all 28T models are 1800kg; 4. Different displacements: The 28T has a 2.0T displacement, while the 20T has a 1.5T displacement. The transmissions are also different: the 28T uses a 6-speed automatic transmission, while the 20T uses a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The 20T has two-wheel-drive versions and overall configurations are slightly lower than the 28T.
I have decent experience in driving, mainly using the Envision for commuting and weekend trips. The 20T has a 1.5L engine with 169 horsepower, which is sufficient for daily driving. It starts smoothly but struggles slightly when overtaking on highways. The fuel consumption is low, averaging 7L per 100km, making it economical and hassle-free for city driving. The 28T, with a 2.0L engine and 260 horsepower, is much more powerful, offering strong acceleration and a noticeable push-back feeling, ideal for long-distance or mountain driving. However, its fuel consumption is higher, around 9L, adding a few hundred yuan to monthly fuel costs. Both models have similar spacious and comfortable interiors, great for family use. The 28T offers optional four-wheel drive, providing better safety in rain or snow. Maintenance costs are similar, but the 28T is 10,000 to 20,000 yuan more expensive upfront. Overall, it depends on your driving habits: choose the 20T for city cruising and the 28T if you love adventure. I’ve driven the 20T for years, and it’s been sturdy and reliable.
