I don't hide my love for gac Trumpchi GS8. After the first generation of GS8 went on the market, I recommended my cousin to buy one, and because of the heat, he waited for nearly three months to mention the car, but he was still excited.
But nearly five years have passed, it is very strange that he rarely recommends this car to his relatives and friends around him, you know, in the fourth-tier county, the owner recommendation is a very important factor for consumers to buy a car, when asked why, he replied: GS8 fuel consumption is a bit high, not suitable for consumers in small counties.
A bit agreed, after all, as a high-end medium and large SUV, the size is large, the body is heavy, the power is strong, and the fuel consumption is high. However, consumers are so "greedy", they want a large space, smart enough, strong power, and low fuel consumption of GS8, then GAC Trumpchi must be solved.
The answer given by GAC Trumpchi is "hybrid".
On December 12, the new second-generation GS8 was listed, the official guidance price was 186,800 yuan - 246,800 yuan, a total of six models were launched in the two series of dual engine series and pilot series, of which the dual engine series included two-wheel drive premium version and four-wheel drive premium version, priced at 228,800 yuan and 246,800 yuan respectively.
According to GAC Trumpchi, this new second-generation GS8 dual-engine version is equipped with 2.0TM + new fourth-generation enhanced version of the THS II. Toyota Hybrid System, which is the first Chinese brand model equipped with Toyota THS hybrid technology, and is also the world's first model to use a 2.0T engine with Toyota THS hybrid technology, with an acceleration time of 6.9s per 100 meters and a fuel consumption of 5.3L/100km under NEDC conditions.
That is to say, GAC Trumpchi solves the pain points of consumers with hybrid models, and also allows GAC Trumpchi to have a deeper breakthrough point in high-end product layout.
For GAC Trumpchi, trumpchi GS8 is a ceiling-level product of Chinese brands in the medium and large SUV market, and its achievements in the same level of sales, the first of the same level of retention rate, and the first of the same level of ownership are obvious to all, which is of great significance to the upward movement of GAC Trumpchi's brand. However, GS8 is a product of 2016 after all, and in recent years, the medium and large SUV market is in a state of flux, and Trumpchi GS8 itself needs a bigger break.
As a result, as the first model of GAC Trumpchi's "intelligence + hybridization" strategy, the new second-generation GS8 is based on core technologies such as GPMA architecture, Julang Power, ADiGO intelligent driving interconnection ecosystem, and Juxing chassis, aiming to let customers feel more high-value car experience.
These build the base point of the new second-generation GS8 all-round improvement.
Therefore, it can be seen that the new second-generation GS8 adopts the new design language of "Star Diamond Diamond Shadow", and in terms of external styling, the double grille shape of "Spread Wings" and "Dragon Scale Wings", the world's first "Eye of Conquest" opening and closing design headlights, "Red Diamond" tail lights, floating oxygen blue and ink seal green New body color make the whole vehicle luxurious and atmospheric;
Therefore, it can be seen that the new ink seal green color color tone, the second row of queen recliners, the shift ball head "guardian scepter", the 14.6-inch large central control screen + 12.3-inch full-fit LCD instrument, etc., show the technology and luxury of the new second-generation GS8;
Therefore, it can be seen that the new second-generation GS8 is equipped with a newly upgraded super-sensor interactive intelligent cockpit, including the technology-leading million-level technology configuration AR-HUD, ADiGO 4.0 intelligent IoT and intelligent assisted driving, etc., with AVDC shadow riders, and is committed to bringing users a more intelligent and humanized high-quality driving experience;
Therefore, it can be seen that the pilot series of the new second-generation GS8 is equipped with the Julang Power 2.0T GDI engine + Aisin's third-generation 8AT powertrain, which is the strongest 2.0T+8AT of the Chinese brand, the maximum torque of 400N·m, and then matches the AVDC shadow rider function to form a golden dynamic control combination;
That is to say, the new second-generation GS8 focuses on polishing the sense of luxury, power and technology, bringing users the enjoyment of luxury cars that have crossed the level.
On another level, in the era of electrification, as the pioneer product of GAC Trumpchi, GS8 also has to undertake the pioneer of brand transformation.
In this sense, when the new second-generation GS8, based on the world's leading hybrid, fired the first shot of GAC Trumpchi's comprehensive hybridization, it became an important thrust of the "hybridization + intelligence" development strategy, and will become an important beginning for the transformation of GAC Group into a technology company in the future.
Feng Xingya, general manager of GAC Group, once said that the change of the new second-generation GS8 is the best embodiment of the Trumpchi brand's ability to judge the situation. When the first-generation GS8 has established the moat of GAC Trumpchi's high-end products, all the new second-generation GS8 has to do is to set sail again and continue to ride the wind and waves.
