Recently, some netizens exposed a group of spy photos of the new Great Wall Wei brand car, and the specific positioning of the new car cannot be determined at present, but the body size and the Great Wall Wei brand product plan in the spy photo revealed that the new car may be an MPV model.
In the spy photo, according to the front surround and overall shape of the body, we can judge that the new car uses the body shell of the Wei brand VV7. The new car features a load-bearing body, with a wheelbase that is much larger than the VV7 and a rear wheel position close to just below the VV7 taillights.
For reference, the Wei brand VV7 has a length of 4760mm and a wheelbase of 2950mm, positioning itself as a mid-size SUV. It is worth noting that the wheelbase of nearly 3 meters belongs to the larger level in the same level of SUVs. The chassis wheelbase in the picture is larger, perhaps closer to 3 meters2, which allows us to determine that the new car will likely be an MPV model, but also a medium-sized or large-scale MPV.
The Great Wall Wei brand put MPV models on the agenda very early. According to the previously exposed product plan, Great Wall Weipai will launch two MPV models codenamed M81 and M83 in the future, positioning medium-sized MPV and medium-sized and large-sized MPV respectively, focusing on household and business respectively.
In terms of power, the official has not disclosed specific information at present. However, according to the Great Wall's current power system reserves, the 2.0T+48V light hybrid and 1.5T+DHT hybrid systems are likely to be seen on new cars.
In addition to the Great Wall Wei brand, the tank platform has also exposed the model plan of the MPV. Tank platform architecture engineer Sun Xidong once revealed: "In the future, the Great Wall will build a non-bearer and off-road mpV based on the tank platform. "The emergence of off-road MPV will create a new category, which is more worth looking forward to."
Comments: With the opening and encouragement of the three-child policy, the demand for family travel for multi-population families has become more and more valued by car companies, and BYD, Hongqi, and Great Wall have all stepped into the MPV market. In the next one or two years, the MPV market will gradually become the main battlefield. The GL8 is the only one, and the situation of senna's price increase may also become history.
