When we talk about standout models in the automotive market over the past few years, the Chuanqi GS4, which was released in 2015, stands out as an obvious example. Its combination of high value, powerful performance, excellent features, and spacious interior has perfectly catered to the demanding tastes of Chinese consumers. Since its launch, it has garnered the approval of over 450,000 owners and has become the fastest-growing SUV from a Chinese brand. To keep its competitive edge, the 2017 GS4 has arrived with several enhancements. As a mid-cycle refresh model, the new GS4 introduces several notable changes, including the addition of a four-wheel-drive option and a six-speed manual transmission for the 235T model. These updates are certainly eye-catching.
The GS4’s spacious interior is undoubtedly one of its biggest selling points within its class. Even with ample legroom in the back, the front seats remain comfortable. Additionally, the rear seat is slightly elevated compared to the front, and the floor is flat, enhancing passenger comfort. However, wind noise could be better controlled, and the suspension's damping feels a bit firm when dealing with vertical bumps.
In terms of design, the 2017 GS4 remains largely similar to the current model, with dimensions of 4510*1852*1677mm (or 1708mm with a roof rack) and a wheelbase of 2650mm. The 2017 GS4 sees improvements in its configuration, with features like air outlets, rear double USB ports, and a mobile phone storage compartment being added to the elite trim level and above. Central rear armrests, headrests, and rear privacy glass are also now standard in the 2017 GS4.
Moreover, the 2017 GS4 introduces a 360-degree panoramic imaging system, integrated LED welcome lighting on the exterior mirrors, and an in-car connectivity system that integrates Baidu CarLife. The GS4 is available with a 5-speed manual or a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox. The 235T (1.5T) model will come with a 6-speed manual transmission. Some versions will also feature the i-4WD intelligent four-wheel-drive system, offering two-wheel drive, intelligent four-wheel drive, and forced four-wheel drive modes.
In terms of pricing and configuration, the GS4 offers great value within its segment, particularly with regards to safety features. All models, except for the entry-level 1.3T and 1.5T versions, come equipped with ESP. User feedback indicates that the 2017 model includes additional rear vents in the elite trim and above, along with dual USB ports, further enriching the multimedia experience. Fuel economy is average, with some users reporting higher-than-expected fuel consumption. Regular maintenance costs around 400 yuan per session, making it quite affordable even for larger services. Overall, its maintenance costs align well with its brand positioning.
Additionally, the 2017 GS4 introduces a 360-degree panoramic imaging system, integrated LED welcome lighting on the exterior mirrors, and an in-car infotainment system that supports Baidu CarLife. The powertrain options include a 1.3T or 1.5T turbocharged engine paired with a 5-speed manual, a 7-speed dual-clutch, or a 6-speed automatic transmission.
In summary, the 2017 GS4 continues to deliver strong value and practicality, making it a compelling choice in the competitive SUV market. With its enhanced features and improved configurations, it remains a favorite among budget-conscious buyers looking for a reliable and stylish vehicle.
