2 Answers
The Hongqi HS7 commonly uses Comfort mode in daily driving. Below are the specific details about the Hongqi HS7: 1. Exterior: The new car features a bright yellow paint finish with new design elements. The front fascia adopts Hongqi's latest family-style grille design, where the all-black grille connects with the headlights, complemented by vertical chrome accents for a sporty feel. Additionally, the car is equipped with a newly designed front bumper featuring an exaggerated design with black circular decorations, somewhat resembling the style of Volkswagen's R-Line models. 2. Side Profile: The new car comes with a newly designed five-spoke wheel set, matched with body-colored decorations, and the wheel center logo is also Hongqi's latest style. At the rear, the spoiler on the upper part of the tail, the quad exhaust pipes, the black decorations around the exhaust, and the small diffuser below all highlight its sporty identity. 3. Powertrain: The Hongqi HS7 is powered by a 1.8T turbocharged engine with automatic start-stop function, delivering a maximum power of 178 horsepower and a peak torque of 250 N·m, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
I've been using the Hongqi HS7 for many years, and I mostly drive in Comfort mode for daily use. This mode is quite balanced, offering fuel efficiency and smoothness on city roads. The engine response is neither too aggressive nor too sluggish, making it just right for stop-and-go traffic during commutes. The suspension is tuned to be softer, reducing vibrations when going over speed bumps and providing a more comfortable ride for passengers. The Hongqi HS7 also has Sport and Eco modes. For example, Sport mode delivers more power on highways but consumes more fuel, so it's not necessary for regular use. Eco mode saves more fuel, but the acceleration response is slower, which might actually make driving more strenuous. I recommend using Comfort mode in most situations, as the system automatically adjusts the transmission and chassis, and it's simple to operate—just turn the knob. Remember to perform regular maintenance to ensure the mode selection remains stable.
