Off -loader confrontation for the Japanese and US prestige!Compare Gracello and Rankle

The biggest topic of the new Grachero is that the long body has a three -row seat specification "L".In the U.S. Hongho, the new model is L, and it is conscious of the celebrity SUV market such as Cadillac Escalade.The new Grachero is 5 in length.A dignified size of 2m.The only larger SUVs are Escalade, Rolls Royskarinan, and Mabach.

The Japanese -specific Glachero L has a summit reserve (9.99 million yen) and a limit (7.88 million yen), and the former car is the former.The Rankle 300 is 7.7 million yen for gasoline and 8 million yen for diesel in this GR sport.12 like a test ride.Additional 3 -inch navigation, JBL brand sound system, rear seat monitor, etc. can reach 8.7 million yen.The seats are also prepared for three -row specifications in gasoline vehicles, and there are many parts that are worn with glucero L, both in terms of price and function.By the way, the Rankle 300 is not sold in North America, but the brother car Lexus LX is the main battlefield in North America, and it competes with Gracello L and Escaled.

Gracello that combines flat ride comfort and rough road running performance

The Rankle 300 still adheres to the classic independent ladder frame and rearid suspension with an immutable concept with the "car that goes anywhere and returns alive".Jeep, on the other hand, is always advanced by SUVs other than Wrangler.Gracello was the second generation in 1999, and his younger brother, cherokee, has shifted to a monocoque body as early as 1984.

The new Grachero L became a much more sophisticated SUV than the predecessor.Furniture, such as the Palel Moreather Seats for Advanced Grade, the Motoki Panel, and the prestigious Macintosh sound system, can be said to be a luxury car level.

The new Grachero L has the benefits of SUVs, such as the height of the gaze and the calm riding comfort due to a large stroke, at least as long as it runs on the paved road, but it has almost no off -loader taste.Shofard Riper seems to be strongly conscious, but although it is a flat riding comfort, it is a driver's car as a driver's car for accurate steering and extra movement.On the other hand, the standard air suspension can expand the ground height to 270 mm or more, with a depth of over 600 mm on the ground, which is ashamed of the jeep.

Having a "ranked feeling" that runs through the desert

The Rankle calls the fighter -style "GR sports", but the sports meant the desert, not the circuit.Therefore, a high -height tire is worn, and the footwork is a supple stroke -oriented tuning.Thanks to that, everyday ride is good.Compared to 200, both straightness and steering reactions on paved roads are leveled up, but they have not hidden the rigid -specific push -ups and the dead feeling of independent frame.But it should also be considered as a proof of the real rankle.

This time, both of them have a fine electric storage third seat, but the third row of the high ranks of the floor is in a physical education sitting posture with knees, and it is a bit difficult for large adults to travel long distances.On the other hand, Grachero L, on the other hand, may slightly float the thighs depending on the body shape, but is not as good as a large minivan in both space and seating.As expected, it is a monocoque body.

Gracello, which has been transformed into a luxury SUV, was all first -class.

This rankle engine is 3.It is a 5 -liter gasoline turbo.There is also a diesel model in GR sports, and diesel may eventually become the mainstay in Japan, but gasoline is more impressive not only for high -speed power but also for medium -low speed pickups and flexibility.Gracello L engine is familiar 3.6 -liter V6 gasoline and still has no turbo.3 to this huge body.When you hear 6 -liter NA, you may find it unsatisfactory.Of course, there is no excessive power, but when you run, it is wonderfully cheerful and quiet.

If you look at it, the weight of Gracello L is light at 2250kg in this summit reserve.The rankle, on the other hand, is 2520 kg, and there is a 270kg weight difference between the two.Gracello L is more than 350mm in length than the predecessor, and even though the quietness is greatly improved, the same engine is almost the same or slightly lighter (!).So, the power weight ratio is not much different from the predecessor.There is no shortage of power performance.

No, the new Gracello L has a brilliant molting into a luxury SUV.Compared to this, the rankle is clearly crude, but it is the only charisma, and comparing with other cars is not very meaningful.However, the new Grachero L is a first -class tailoring and running.At least on urban areas, high -speed, and paved Yamasaka Roads, it is no longer a Rankle enemy.
