What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the Emgrand Shadow Leopard?
2 Answers
Referring to the standard version of the Emgrand Shadow Leopard, its 0-100 km/h acceleration time is 6.95 seconds. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine across the entire lineup, delivering a maximum power of 130 kW and a peak torque of 270 N·m, paired with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. Exterior of the Emgrand Shadow Leopard: It features a new matte silver body paint with bright yellow accents integrated into the front and rear bumpers and body decals. The car comes with a full set of upgraded exterior body kits, creating a more grounded visual effect. Hardware upgrades include a large rear spoiler, OZ Racing rims, AP Racing braking system, a quad-exhaust system, and Pirelli tires. Interior of the Emgrand Shadow Leopard: The passenger seat, rear seats, as well as interior coverings such as door panels and headliners have been removed to expose the metal structure of the body, aiming for further weight reduction. Additionally, the car is upgraded with a driver's racing seat, racing steering wheel, four-point seat belts, an internal roll cage, an onboard fire extinguisher, and four additional gauges.
I often drive the Trumpchi Emkoo in the city, and its acceleration is indeed impressive. The official 0-100 km/h acceleration time for its 1.5T version is 6.95 seconds, which is very fast among cars in the same price range. During my test drive, I found the power response in Sport mode to be particularly quick, with a noticeable push-back feeling when stepping on the throttle. The gear shifts are also crisp, with hardly any lag. However, in real-world driving, there's about a 0.3-second variation depending on road conditions, tire temperature, and load. Fitting performance tires or flashing an ECU program could make it even faster. This acceleration performance is more than sufficient for daily overtaking or highway lane changes, and the key point is that the fuel consumption isn't high—around 8L/100km in the city, making it quite economical.
