The differences between the J11 and J15 models of the Shadow Leopard are as follows: 1. Interior configuration: The steering wheel materials differ. The J11's steering wheel is made of plastic, while the J15's is made of genuine leather. 2. Seat configuration: The J11 lacks a rear center armrest and rear cup holders, which the J15 includes. 3. Air conditioning configuration: The J11 features manual air conditioning controls, whereas the J15 has automatic controls with dual-zone temperature control. 4. Steering wheel configuration: The J11's steering wheel does not support gear shifting, while the J15's does. 5. External configuration: The J11 does not have a negative ion generator, which the J15 includes. 6. Lighting configuration: The J11 lacks interior ambient lighting, while the J15 features 32-color ambient lighting and lighting for both the driver and front passenger seats. 7. Rearview mirror functions: The J15 includes heated exterior mirrors, electric folding, and automatic folding when locking the vehicle. 8. Body color options: The J15 offers an additional green color choice.
I recently researched the Emgrand sedan and specifically compared the J11 and J15 trim configurations. Starting with price, the J15 is about 10,000 RMB more expensive than the J11, but the added features are substantial. The most noticeable upgrade is the J15's L2 autonomous driving assistance, including adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assist - particularly useful for highway driving. The seats get upgraded to leather/fabric combination with power adjustment, offering noticeably better support. It also gets larger 18-inch alloy wheels for a sportier look. While both trims have smart infotainment systems, the J15 adds gesture control, facial recognition, and dual-zone climate control. If budget allows, I think the J15's premium is justified for these features, especially for frequent long-distance drivers.
