What do SE and SX mean in automatic transmission?
1 Answers
The two abbreviated letters following the car's displacement actually indicate the vehicle's configuration. For example, SL represents the standard configuration (base model), SE stands for the high-end version, and SX denotes the luxury edition. Different abbreviations signify varying vehicle configurations, with the SX luxury edition offering the highest specifications. Version differences: Taking the Cruze as an example, compared to the SE/SL versions, the SX version includes additional features such as front and rear integrated safety air curtains, electrically heated exterior rearview mirrors, premium genuine leather sports interior, fully automatic climate control system, intelligent air quality system (AQS), cruise control system, and many more configurations. However, the price is also higher, providing various options for different customer groups. Vehicle naming principles: Automobile manufacturers name their models primarily to enhance a sense of premium quality. Originally, most foreign car manufacturers had simple naming logic, such as BMW using numbers and Mercedes-Benz using letters. However, upon entering the domestic market, they adapted to local customs by adding terms like "luxury edition" after numbers, and even enlarging the numbers to cater to local tastes. True domestic brands take this even further. For instance, Haval essentially starts with luxury editions as their entry-level models. This can be understood as catering to customers' psychological needs.
