Which is better, the Excelle or the Sylphy?
2 Answers
Buick Excelle offers better value for money, excelling in terms of exterior design, comfort, features, and power compared to the Sylphy. Buick Excelle Power: Equipped with a 1.3T+48V mild hybrid engine and the classic 1.5L DVVT four-cylinder engine, it comprehensively balances power and provides diverse options to meet the needs of different consumers. Buick Excelle Smart Connectivity: The all-new Buick Excelle features the iteratively upgraded Buick eConnect connectivity technology, with a newly designed in-vehicle human-machine interface. It supports cloud-centric connected applications and services, including remote operations, over-the-air updates, Super-ID personal accounts, and new in-vehicle apps. Additionally, it offers a lifetime free service of 24G "OnStar connected application data" annually, meeting the growing demands of younger family consumers for intelligent and connected vehicle experiences.
From the perspective of daily urban commuting, I often drive to work and find the Buick Excelle more comfortable. The seats are soft, and the suspension is tuned to be softer, making it less bumpy on congested roads. However, the Nissan Sylphy definitely wins in terms of fuel consumption, averaging around 6 liters per 100 kilometers, so you won't feel too bad about fuel costs even in traffic. As for the Excelle, I've driven a friend's car, and it consumes about 8 liters per 100 kilometers, which is a bit hard on the wallet. In the city, the Sylphy's steering is light and easy to handle, while the Excelle feels slightly heavier. Maintenance costs for the Sylphy are much more affordable, with Japanese parts being cheaper. Overall, if you drive a lot, the Sylphy is more economical and hassle-free; if you prioritize comfort, the Excelle is more to your liking.
