For the fuel version, the 2.0T EcoBoost four-wheel drive seven-seat extreme model is its top model. Compared with the 2.0T EcoBoost two-drive seven-seat luxury model, it has more parallel assistance, rear collision warning, 360-degree panoramic image, reversing side warning, automatic parking, induction trunk, Bluetooth key, wireless charging of front and rear row mobile phones, ventilation of front seats, adjustable buttons in the back row of the co-pilot’s seat, leg rest adjustment of the second row seat, electric adjustment of the second row seat, ventilation of the second row seat, and second row seat heating. Although the configuration of this 30,000 yuan is enough and luxurious enough, after all, the price of 279,800 yuan is not low.
Therefore, for the fuel version, we recommend to buy a 2.0T EcoBoost two-wheel drive seven-seat luxury model with a price of 249,800 yuan.
How to choose a hybrid model?
For the hybrid version, its entry-level model is 2.0T EcoBoost E- hybrid two-wheel drive seven-seat fashion model, and its price is 249,800 yuan.Equipped with front double airbags, front side airbags, side air curtain, tire pressure display, ABS, EBD, EBA, ASR, ESP, reversing radar, reversing image, driving mode switching, automatic parking, electronic parking, uphill assistance, openable panoramic sunroof, roof rack, remote control key, keyless start+entry, hidden electric door handle, active closed air intake grille, remote start, etc. 12.3-inch color LCD instrument panel, active noise reduction, leather/fabric mixed seat, height adjustment of front seat, lumbar support of main driver’s seat, front and rear/backrest adjustment of second row seat, proportional reclining of rear seat, front central armrest, rear central armrest, rear cup holder, 13.2-inch central touch LCD screen, satellite navigation system, navigation road information display, road rescue call, Bluetooth phone, voice recognition control system, car networking, etc. OTA upgrade, Wi-Fi hotspot, V2X communication, USB/Type-C interface, luggage compartment 12V power interface, 8 speakers, mobile APP remote control, LED headlights, LED daytime running lights, automatic headlights, headlight height adjustment, 7-color interior atmosphere lights, four-door electric windows, one-button lifting of four-door windows, electric adjustment of exterior mirrors, electric folding of exterior mirrors, mirror heating, rear wiper, induction. For a hybrid model with a price close to 250,000 yuan,Its configuration performance is basically sufficient, but it is indeed slightly lower in driver assistance configuration.

Equipped with four-wheel drive system, parallel assistance, rear collision warning, 360-degree panoramic image, reversing side warning, automatic parking, induction trunk, Bluetooth key, wireless charging of front and rear mobile phones, front seat ventilation, rear adjustable button of co-pilot’s seat, second leg rest adjustment, second seat electric adjustment, second seat heating, second seat ventilation, second independent seat and B&O stereo.

As the highest-priced 2.0T EcoBoost E- hybrid four-wheel drive seven-seat ST Line in the whole department, its price is 10,000 yuan more expensive than that of the 2.0T EcoBoost E- hybrid four-wheel drive seven-seat extreme model. This 10,000 yuan is exchanged for sports appearance kit, steering wheel heating, HUD head-up display, leather/suede mixed seats, driver’s seat memory, car air purifier and 255/50 R21 tires, but at the same time it also reduces the ventilation of the front seat and the second row seat.
Therefore, for the hybrid model, we recommend to buy the 2.0T EcoBoost E- hybrid two-wheel drive seven-seat luxury model.
To sum up, that is to say, whether you buy a fuel version or a hybrid version, the most cost-effective of these seven models is the two-wheel drive and seven-seat luxury model.
For the brand-new Sharp L, in terms of appearance, its front face is replaced with a lattice air intake grille, and it is integrated with the light groups on both sides through a long and narrow light strip, plus a large number of black elements, which is rich in visual impact. C-shaped vents are adopted at the lower sides, which are more sporty against the black decorative board.
The side lines of the car body are smooth, and the C-pillar part adopts special modeling treatment to further increase the sense of fashion. In addition, the new car will also provide a hidden door handle, and we also see the L character at the end of the rear door, which also shows that the new car adopts an extended wheelbase. Similar through taillights are used at the rear of the car, and a matrix light group is also used. The English name of the model has also been retained, but after flattening, a lot of advanced texture has been added.
In terms of interior design, it adopts the same design style as Ford EVOS, a new generation of Mondeo, a new generation of Focus and other models, and the oversized screen is the biggest feature in its car. In addition, the all-new Sharp L is also divided into two models: the normal version and the ST-Line. The normal version uses beige and black interiors, while the ST-Line models have all-black interiors, with red decorations and the "ST-Line" red logo at the back of the chair.
For the all-new Sharp L, it adopts a 7-seat layout of 2-2-3, and the second row of seats adopts double zero gravity suspended first-class seats, which supports one-button service, and is equipped with independent leg rest, seat heating/ventilation, wireless charging, backrest angle adjustment and other functions, which can be said to make the second row of passengers enjoy the greatest degree of comfort.
In terms of power, it can be said to be the biggest change in the new sharp world L. It is equipped with Ford’s latest 5th generation 2.0T EcoBoost? twin-turbo direct injection engine with rated power of 202kW and maximum torque of 405nm. Its power split technology allows the vehicle control system VCU to accurately calculate the optimal efficiency of the engine and motor, automatically match the optimal power output mode, and make the whole power system always run in the optimal comprehensive efficiency range, thus achieving the balance between power and fuel consumption.
As for the battery of the hybrid system, the brand-new Sharp L adopts the brand-new low-nickel NCM111 ternary lithium battery, and its battery pack is smaller and lighter, and it has passed the rigorous tests of overcharge, acupuncture, seawater immersion, salt spray, drop, high and low temperature impact, cycle life and many other super-national standards. Obviously, for this power system, it is undoubtedly specially introduced by Ford for the new sharp world L.
