What is the ground clearance of the Regal?
1 Answers
The ground clearance of the Regal is 152 millimeters. The minimum ground clearance of the Regal refers to the distance between the lowest point (excluding the wheels) and the supporting plane, which is used to characterize the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as rocks and tree stumps without collision. If the Regal's ground clearance is higher, its off-road capability improves, but if the ground clearance is too high, the stability at high speeds may decrease. The Regal is a domestically produced car launched by Shanghai GM and is an important part of Shanghai GM Buick's dual-brand strategy. It has a curb weight of 1,570 kilograms and adopts a front-wheel-drive layout. The length, width, and height of the Regal are 4,913 millimeters, 1,863 millimeters, and 1,462 millimeters respectively, with a wheelbase of 2,829 millimeters. Generally, the ground clearance of sedans ranges between 110 millimeters and 150 millimeters, while SUVs have a ground clearance between 200 millimeters and 250 millimeters. However, the Regal's ground clearance is not static; this data also depends on the load condition. Therefore, changes in ground clearance should be considered based on the Regal's load variations. When selecting a vehicle, ground clearance can be one of the reference factors. The choice depends on the vehicle's intended use and the road conditions. For well-paved urban roads, a vehicle with lower ground clearance may enhance stability and comfort. For long-distance travel or driving in areas with poor road conditions, a vehicle with higher ground clearance may be preferable to avoid scraping or damaging the undercarriage, considering its off-road performance.
