What is the real skill of this wing god who has been recognized as the deepest and most athletic talent over the years? See the real chapter for the actual experience. Ignoring the rain, Wing Shen's one-day test drive experience to and from Yilan, abandoning the section of Provincial Highway No.5 and crossing the Snow Mountain Tunnel, and directly hitting the curve and Yi Bei Highway with rich road conditions are the best choices to test how hard Wing Shen's foundation is.
Like the previous test report, in addition to the passionate dynamic experience, the appearance and cockpit design are also unavoidable experiences. However, the wing god to be introduced today is quite special, and it is worth spending more time to introduce it. Of course, this is not to say that Wing God's design is great, but it should be said that looking at the car industry, few people have caused such extensive discussion (or criticism) on design engineering like this Wing God and the earlier published "Wind Dish". For me, this is also the most interesting place of 08 Lancer.
In charge of Mitsubishi's global platform car-making project, 08 Outlander and Lan Se cars were successively derived, and the global sales popularity successfully helped Mitsubishi get out of the previous business haze. Among them, the Concept Sportback five-door hatchback and Concept T-X four-door sports RV concept car released in 2005, and even the 08 American Lan Se launched in north american auto show in early 2007, all pointed their finger at the new generation of family appearance-shark nose, which has become a key design element of Mitsubishi.
The frightening, chilling, avant-garde and strong visual impact of the shark nose, coupled with bright eyes, immediately captured the eyes of car fans around the world. Lanser fans who love sports style have also begun to brew the mood of shark nose introduction. However, due to the consideration of the mainstream market, the shark nose with polarized likes and dislikes did not appear on Lan Se cars as expected after internal evaluation. Instead, the original design team of Mitsubishi Japan jointly developed the exclusive front shape of the car. When it was published in August last year, it became a hot topic in the automobile industry.
For fans looking forward to sports style, they turn to Wing God. Whether the shark nose can be born in Wing God has become a topic in the car industry for half a year. However, with the outflow of camouflage and factory photos, it is confirmed that Wingshen and Fendis used in the production line adopt the sports appearance design from Fendis in consideration of the compatibility of the appearance module suite. This is the wing god we see today. Unlike the shark nose family style of 08 Lancer cars in the world, the wing god presents a localized and exclusive sports style. Having finished the evolution of 08 Wing God, now, let's come to the scene to appreciate the appearance style of Wing God.
Let's talk about it first If you are a die-hard fan who supports the shark's nose, with this bad feeling, Wing God is likely to make you look down on everything. However, if the stereotype of shark nose is put aside, the Wing God is actually a very mature car, and the real car has indeed created some personalized sports styles, especially through the use of red/black, white/black, silver/black, etc., the car body painting and the contrast color of the water tank cover present a highly recognizable front appearance, which makes people clearly judge that this car is the Wing God from a distance, especially the red Wing God that was tested on the same day, making this design effect more prominent.
Although the originality of the design is concerned, Wing God is not as amazing as the original shark mouth. The design of Wing Shen's upper and lower double trapezoidal dark diamond water tank cover and air intake domineering seems to combine the two representative totems of Lancer Shark Mouth and Golf GTI shield water tank cover, take its essence, and then match it with blackened headlights, big front fog lights and iO's indispensable exclusive emblem. On the whole, not only the dynamic effect is remarkable, but also the style is unique.
Finally, around the rear of the car, the appearance of Wing Shen is not sloppy at all. Compared with Vandis, it still has different visual recognition, and the most outstanding one is that some modules of LED taillights adopt transparent lampshade design, which is quite unique when viewed from the rear of the car on the road, whether in general or when the brake lights are on. In addition, the short antenna, the rear bumper, the small tail wing and the oval exhaust tailpipe, which echo the trapezoid of the front of the car, are also decorated in a dynamic style. To be honest, the interface of this generation of Lancer cars is relatively simple. Even when experiencing the Lancer Evolution X, which is regarded as the flagship of performance, when driving in Hokkaido, Japan, I feel that the central control interface is not bloody, and it is completely manipulative design, rather than focusing on the creation of visual movement. At this point, wing god can be said to be the best.
Although the F 1 aluminum alloy shift paddles are seen from the steering wheel, the red stitching design of the steering wheel and gear lever and the annular deck similar to carbon fiber have clearly distinguished the wing god from the wind disco. However, the concise design idea is really a bit monotonous from the driving visual point of view during the test drive. Specifically, it is the interface design of the center console, and the color contrast can be more lively. Otherwise, if you look at the center console as a whole, you will feel that the center console is dark and has no particularly strong blood. In addition, when you look down, you will find that the winged god who emphasizes the sense of movement is not equipped with metal pedals, which is also quite unexpected.
Perhaps many car fans will have the same questions as me after watching Fengdisi and Wing God. Why do they prefer the easy to the difficult, and spend the extra money on styling design and panel opening to develop the exclusive appearance of Lan Se cars? And this question, the product personnel in charge of planning Lan Se automobile series, gave a quite appropriate and interesting answer. Under the planning of Mitsubishi's original factory, it is bound to launch a new generation of home headstock with extremely avant-garde and extreme sports. Do you need a buffer "lubricant" for consumers to gradually accept Mitsubishi's major changes? And this lubricant is the birth of the future design of Feng and Wing God.
Automobile aesthetics, that is, vegetables and carrots have their own preferences, and the strategic planning of Lan Se modeling project will ultimately be tested by market consumers. On the one hand, the unified standards of Mitsubishi original factory for global design have become increasingly strict, and the authority to change the design in the region will also be more constrained. Therefore, in the future, the possibility of using broadsword like Lancer is not only greatly reduced, but even it is not impossible for Wing God to become the seal of the tool changing project. In any case, Di Feng Smith and Yi Shen, who were carved with knives, have shown specifically and slightly whether the aesthetic debate in the field of automobile technology is global or local. As for success or failure, everything is left to time to answer.
