Wave after wave of new cars in 2021 has seen the emergence of a large number of outstanding seed players.
Today Uncle Zhong will share with you that in the new cars that have been test-driven in the whole 2021, we think that the most breakthrough 10 cars, here the breakthrough is not related to sales, heat, but there must be a topic, there must be a look.
New Baojun Valli - no longer "petty" station wagon
Baojun has always been synonymous with high cost performance, but also the representative of the volume, and the category of station wagons in the domestic market is petty bourgeoisie, niche, but also means that applause is not called, but the two together have different sparks. Valli starting at less than 80,000 yuan, opening the door to the wagon market within 100,000, to have a good appearance, to have space, so that the station wagon is no longer "high".
The rear seats can be reclined in 4/6 ratios, with a maximum trunk volume of 1620L; a 1.5T engine, with a maximum power of 108kW and a peak of 250Nm, matching the CVT CVT continuously variable transmission that simulates 8 speeds. In addition to the shape of no SUV, practicality is not lost at all.
Placed 10 years ago, such an attempt was something that car companies could not think of, especially their own brands. But now the emergence of the new Baojun Valli shows that the domestic users' preference for cars is no longer single, the acceptance is getting wider and wider, and perhaps there will be more niche car categories in the mainstream price range in the future.
BYD Qin PLUS DM-i - 3.8L of power loss fuel consumption
In the first half of 2021, Qin PLUS DM-i's 3.8L power loss fuel consumption brush screen, so that BYD's DM-i technology successfully out of the circle, and with 100,000-level pricing, but also seized part of the traditional fuel vehicle market, really let users in the hybrid car and fuel workshop to make choices, this is not simple.
Qin PLUS DM-i is equipped with a 1.5L high-efficiency engine for Xiaoyun-plug-and-mix, with a thermal efficiency of up to 43.04% and a compression ratio of 15.5, which can be said to be ahead of independent engine technology. The actual 100-kilometer acceleration is 7.3s, which provides pure electric endurance of 55km and 120km respectively, and the comprehensive endurance of full fuel and full power is 1180km and 1245km, respectively, which is considerable.
Geely Star Yue L - compact price, medium-sized specifications
The positioning of the compact SUV, the size of the mid-size SUV, the Geely Star Yue L is indeed very fragrant, so the sales of this car have risen rapidly after the launch. On the one hand, it is the appeal of Geely as an independent first-line brand, after all, the rise of independent brands has given Chinese consumers more trust and recognition for domestic cars.
On the other hand, the product strength of Xingyue L, grasping people's preferences for large cars, and Volvo's technical endorsement, with the pricing of compact SUV to form a leapfrog advantage, attracting traditional home users.
In terms of power, the Hoshigoku L is equipped with a 2.0T engine of the Volvo Drive-E series, which has two power calibrations of 218 hp and 238 hp, and matches the 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission and the 8-speed manual transmission respectively. Such a comprehensive product strength index makes The Star-Vietnam L appear basically dead in the autonomous compact SUV market.
Extreme Krypton 001 - a rare driving to pure electric vehicles
Although the highest price has reached 360,000 yuan, Extreme Kr 001 has shown extreme product power in all aspects and is worthy of pricing. Compared with the opponent, the Extreme Kr 001 is a rare driving to pure electric vehicle, with an acceleration of 3.8s per 100 km/ h, a braking distance of 34.5 m per 100 km, and an elk test score of 82 km/h.
The Krypton 001 is equipped with a 100kWh ternary lithium battery, a direct heat pump as standard in the whole series, and a NEDC working condition endurance of 712km. The configuration and assembly are not soft, the only all-vehicle induction automatic door in the same level, frameless door design, wireless Bluetooth sensing, automatic suction, wheelbase up to 3005mm, with 2144L expandable space.
Independence from the Lynk & Co brand and the establishment of a separate Krypton company is enough to prove Geely Automobile's determination to build a high-end electric sub-brand. For the extreme krypton 001 model, the excellent design and outstanding power parameters support the brand's high-end positioning is not too much of a problem. It can be expected that after the listing of Extreme Kr 001, with the experience in the operation of traditional brands and the ability to open up channels, there is not much problem with breaking the wrist with new and new power brands.
The Hiphi X – the most futuristic production car
Gaohe HiPhi X can be said to be the most futuristic, sci-fi mass production car on the market at present, its streamlined design, the world's first NT spread wing door, in the debut of the place to attract widespread attention, at least in the appearance, this Gaohe HiPhi X meets everyone's vision of the future of the car. As a latecomer to the new car-making forces, Gaohe HiPhi X took on the name of "the most expensive" with a price range of 570,000-800,000 yuan, becoming the focus of controversy over this car.
From the perspective of product strength, Gaohe HiPhi X almost uses the configuration and advanced technology that can be imagined and seen on the market, and the cooperation and linkage of various top suppliers have created this HiPhi X at any cost. Compared with the opponent who is also at the 800,000 level, the comprehensive performance of HiPhi X actually exceeds this pricing. After all, Huaren Express is an unfamiliar brand for many people, and its brand power is difficult to support this pricing. But from another point of view, I prefer to see Gaohe HiPhi X as a top electronic product of Chinese Express", a pure experience product without "premium moisture".
Domestic Mustang mach E - from "Wild Horse" to "Electric Horse"
Many people did not expect that Mustang would be domestically produced, let alone domestically produced in this form. In fact, even Henry Ford II, the founder of the first generation of Mustang, would not have imagined that The Mustang, known for its "muscularity", would consider space and practicality, from a sports car to an SUV, from a restless sound wave to a quiet sound.
But I have to say that this is the new era, change is the main theme of today's traditional American car companies, Ford realized, began to fully embrace the new energy era. The world's largest electric vehicle market is China, which brings together the best electric vehicle products in the world, and only by proving itself here can it be regarded as a truly excellent electric vehicle. Therefore, Music Mach-E must tilt to the needs of the Chinese market and ensure that the Chinese version of the product is the best in the world. This is not easy for an American veteran car company to lower its posture, which shows its determination.
Nissan's new X-Trail - the strongest three-cylinder
If nothing else, just by daring to use the three-cylinder engine on its own fist products, it is said that Tomorrow's production has confidence in this set of power. This VC-TURBO 1.5T engine has a power torque output of 150 kW/300 N·m, which is a good suppression of the innate jitter of the three-cylinder engine under the application of variable cylinder technology. And the actual driving feeling is indeed a surprise, which will break everyone's prejudice against the three-cylinder.
Unfortunately, the transformation from four cylinders to three cylinders is regarded by many consumers as a kind of "simple match", rationally it is not that the product is not good, but purely psychological and emotional non-acceptance, Qijun such a large "turn", will inevitably face strong pain, perhaps in 2022 will usher in a turnaround.
Volkswagen ID.4 series - kicked off Volkswagen's new energy prelude
The importance of the domestic significance of the ID.4 series is self-evident, and at the same time, it is also injected into the public's self-thinking on the background of car manufacturing, showing market differentiation advantages. For example, the addition of IQ.Light to fill the sense of freshness and ceremony; the new layout of the interior, almost no physical buttons, including the steering wheel and the center control are touch-operated. This new set of Volkswagen design and concept will break the monotonous product aesthetic of the fuel vehicle era and let everyone rekindle the freshness of the Volkswagen.
From the localization of the ID.4 series, we can see the biggest difference between the traditional head car companies represented by Volkswagen and the new force car companies. For the new force car companies, survival is the key, so it doesn't matter if the product has shortcomings, but it must be able to highlight some very bright points, so that it is possible to stand out in the market.
Volkswagen has built many excellent fuel vehicles, they are more concerned about the perfection of the product, put comprehensiveness and balance in the first place, compared to the new forces more stable or more "slow heat", but also relatively more reliable and balanced. In terms of acceleration performance, the ID.4 series does not need to use a very gorgeous acceleration performance to make their car eye-catching, they can make a better balance between power and endurance.
BMW iX – taking BMW design to new heights
Based on BMW's new pure electric platform, ix is positioned as a medium and large SUV, as a prototype of the iNEXT production version, the new car is very bold in design. BMW pioneered the use of bezel-less doors on SAV models like the bmw iX, which doomed the iX not to be a mediocre model.
The atmosphere inside the BMW iX is completely out of the interior design style of BMW's past. In addition to the necessary air conditioning outlet, central control instrument table and other equipment, the rest of the equipment is well hidden. The speakers of the sound equipment are cleverly hidden in the seat and decorated with door panel fabrics, and a control panel with concealment and a touchable iDrive knob are integrated into the central seat armrest. At the same time, the iX will also be equipped with 5G communication technology, which will match the iX's own autonomous driving hardware to prepare for various future scenarios.
From the level of technology, hardware and interior design, BMW iX is undoubtedly bringing BMW's new energy vehicles to a new height.
GAC Toyota Xena - breaking the solidified mid-to-high-end MPV market
MPV has been in a state of applause in China, saying that the market has no demand, which is not accurate. But more than 200,000 MPV is either as business-oriented as GL8, or as Odyssey is completely born to take care of the family, it is not easy to find a product that takes care of all aspects, and the listing of Xena has a good chance to break this deadlock.
The localization of the fourth generation of XENA, in order to meet the core needs of MPV, has achieved a comprehensive evolution, it is based on the TNGA architecture development, equipped with the latest generation of Toyota HEV dual-engine hybrid system, it can be said to represent toyota's latest and highest level. Coupled with its brilliant overseas achievements and the reputation and positioning laid by its import status, Xena has a natural advantage in the high-end MPV market, which is difficult for other opponents to replicate.
The domestic Syna, which is built based on the TNGA architecture, has reached a higher level in terms of appearance, comfort and safety. Referring to the overseas version of the model, Xena is not as domineering and exposed as the Buick GL8 and GAC Trumpchi M8, but more of a flexible temperament. Entering the car, SIENNA brings users a simple, gray-and-white interior and wood grain trim to create an elegant character that belongs to the oriental aesthetic. The overseas version of SIENNA adopts a 2+2+3 seat layout, and the domestic version of Xena is expected to continue this design.
