Bitauto Original In recent years, the compact SUV market has always attracted a lot of attention. As time goes by, there are more and more compact SUV models on the market. And among such a dazzling array of products, how to choose a cost-effective and unique model? This has become a problem for many consumers, so today we brought two European compact SUVs for a PK.
The two protagonists are the 2021 Peugeot 4008 360THP Technology Edition with a guide price of 201,700 yuan and the 2022 Tuyue 330TSI with a guide price of 199,600 yuan. Dual-clutch four-wheel drive luxury version.
● Appearance comparison: 4008 French romance/Tuyue German rigor
In terms of body size, through a set of data comparison, it is not difficult to find that the length, width and wheelbase of the 4008 have advantages over the Tuyue. The side of the 4008 is basically unchanged compared to the old model, and more chrome strips are still used to enhance the texture of the vehicle. Volkswagen's classic car body waistline and wide C-pillar design make Tuyue's body side look simple and capable.
● Interior comparison: 4008 has a strong combat atmosphere/Tuyue pragmatism comes first
● Configuration differences: 4008 covers everything Yue meets daily life
There is not much difference between the two cars in terms of mainstream configurations, such as adaptive cruise, AEB active braking, rain-sensing wipers, reversing image, driving mode, reversing radar, electronic handbrake, Automatic headlights, one-button start, keyless entry, in-car navigation, PM2.5 filtering and CarPlay/CarLife, etc., can easily meet the basic needs of users and are within the conventional level in the same price range.
The difference in configuration is that 4008 is equipped with lane keeping, blind spot assist, steep hill descent, front parking radar, electric folding rearview mirror, and automatic anti-dazzling interior rear view. It also has functions such as mirrors, paddle shifters, electric tailgate, and tailgate induction opening and closing. These functions are not available in Tuyue. The side reflects that 4008 is more comprehensive in terms of safety, comfort, and humanization.
Of course, Tuyue also has configuration functions that are better than 4008. That is, automatic parking, front fog lights, cornering auxiliary lighting, etc. Although the functional configuration of this car can also meet the needs of users well, it is just not as comprehensive as the 4008.
● Power: 4008 front-wheel drive 1.6T & 8AT/Tuyue four-wheel drive 2.0T & 7DCT
Power , 4008 is equipped with a 1.6T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 125kW and a peak torque of 250N·m, and is matched with an 8AT gearbox. Tuyue has a 2.0T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 137kW and a peak torque of 320N·m. The transmission is a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and equipped with a four-wheel drive system. The power data has a considerable advantage over the 4008, and it also has four drive system.
Editor’s comment: Peugeot 4008 shows the alternative side of the French personality. It is one of those very one-sided models. I like it. People can't put it down, and people who don't like it won't take another look. On the other hand, the Volkswagen Tuyue is a very satisfactory model. It has no obvious advantages, but it also has no obvious shortcomings. This is its advantage.
