Although the top three BBA occupies the top share of the luxury car market, second-tier luxury brands are still constantly working hard to narrow the gap and attract more consumer attention by launching various new cars, showing a strong upward trend as a whole. This article will introduce four powerful models, which have achieved considerable sales in 2021 and are also well recognized in terms of word of mouth, which is not to be missed when buying a car.
Red Flag HS5
After launching a new strategy, Hongqi has a new look, not only getting rid of the stereotype of the past, but also setting off a rush to buy among young consumers. You should know that before 2018, Hongqi's entire brand only sold a few thousand new cars throughout the year, and now it can be achieved in a week. As a pioneer of the new Red Flag, the HS5 ranks among the star models, selling 15,240 units last month, once again impacting the new level. It should be known that in August, its explosive sales of 13459 vehicles not only achieved many consecutive months of rise, but also jumped to the mid-size SUV monthly sales champion throne, making the outside world stunned.
The car presents a strong Red Flag family style in terms of shape design, the front face part of the polygon oversized net is very eye-catching, and the surrounding contour is more industrial under the outline of the thick chrome trim. The red flag split LOGO recognition is beyond doubt, and the roof luggage rack structure exudes off-road attributes. The car has shown great strength in many aspects, and the 2.0T turbocharged engine can achieve a maximum power of 165 kilowatts. It is expected that in the recent period, Hongqi HS5 will usher in a sales explosion with the fermentation of word-of-mouth, and continue to interpret the charm of Chinese car manufacturing in the second-tier luxury field.
Volvo XC60
Like Hongqi, volvo has gradually weakened its brand influence for a period of time, losing in the domestic market, and even being considered by many people to be in danger of delisting. However, it has survived against the trend, and has launched a number of masterpieces after joining forces with Geely, successfully saving the image in the hearts of consumers. The XC60 is Volvo's favorite work and the sales responsibility of the brand. In June this year, the car sold 6878 units, ushering in a small milestone. Last month, it also achieved a good performance of 4743 units, which is not easy in the field of mid-size SUVs.
The XC60 emphasizes the industrial texture in the shape design, and the use of lines is quite straight and sharp. The classic Volvo "seat belt" LOGO shows its foothold in the sales war, that is, excellent safety attributes. The XC60 is equipped with multiple airbags and has worked active/passive safety to protect occupants from injury. Many car owners have praised their lane departure warning and forward collision warning features, which help reduce many dangers. Most of its models can achieve L2-level driving assistance to alleviate driving pressure. The XC60 is powered by a 2.0T high- and low-power turbocharged engine, which has not disappointed in power output, and the 184 kW boost will give you a purer driving experience.
Cadillac CT5
CT5 has been stable in recent months, delivering about 5,000 report cards per month, helping Cadillac grab a share in the mid-size car segment. In fact, although the Internet is full of funny paragraphs about Cadillac, this not only does not affect its image in the minds of consumers, but also inspires more young people to contribute generously to it. The CT5 is full of rich American beauty in terms of appearance, using tough shapes and sharp lines to outline a tough guy posture. However, under the embellishment of some sports elements, it also looks more fashionable and dynamic, in line with the current aesthetic trend.
CT5 currently has a total of 8 models on sale, starting at 279,700 yuan, but the discount is very powerful, and the car purchase threshold is not as difficult as imagined. The car is full of sincerity in configuration, the whole series is equipped with a 10-inch touch LCD screen as standard, and many scientific and technological functions save a lot of trouble for daily use of the car. In terms of power, it is based on a 2.0T turbocharged engine, and it cannot fall in output. It can get up to 174 kilowatts of boost, which is powerful to drive, and the 10-block automatic transmission is even more wonderful.
Lincoln Adventurer
Lincoln has not been easy in recent years, if it had not been for the timely opening of the localization strategy, it may have disappeared from people's vision long ago. Adventurer, on the other hand, is a pioneer in the brand's revitalization, delivering 3,893 report cards last month, making it the first choice for many when buying a car. In terms of appearance, it combines the Rugged Style of the United States with the concept of fashion and refinement, especially the front face of the net is very eye-catching after the blackening treatment, and also shows a sense of sports.
The adventurer is a good size, with a decent 4615mm length and 2711mm wheelbase, and the internal range of motion is not too crowded. The 12.8-inch touch LCD screen is standard throughout the series, although it is a suspension design, but thanks to the excellent height of the seat, it does not affect the observation field of view when driving. The OTA upgrade function is very practical and can be adjusted in time according to changes in consumer car preferences. It is also equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, and the maximum power even reaches 180 kilowatts, which is quite powerful in terms of output.
