In recent years, Hongqi can become one of the brands that have attracted the attention of the Chinese people, not only because the long historical inheritance of Hongqi is irreplaceable in the hearts of the Chinese people, but also has a great relationship with the good strength of its new products. However, as an independent high-end brand, Hongqi's current housekeeping model H9 positioning is still slightly higher, and the starting price of 309,800 makes many users who like Hongqi but have little budget discourage. The slightly cheaper H5 and H7 are old cars that have been on the market for many years, and the shape design is not as stunning as the H9. No, the new design, more entry-level Red Flag H6 is coming!
In fact, as early as December 2021, in the official release of the test car launch ceremony of Hongqi, in addition to the much-watched LS7 (in the middle of the picture above) and the new MPV (left and right in the middle of the picture above), the new Sedan H6 (red box in the picture above) has already been unveiled.
Hongqi H6 internal code C100, positioned in a medium-sized car, the front face adopts the new familial style of Hongqi, that is, vertical grille net, with U-shaped light strips and sharp headlight groups, the middle is a red vertical decoration, which is a reinterpretation of the classic elements inherited by the Hongqi brand for many years in the new era.
Red Flag H6 Hypothetical @SugarDesign
Judging from the details of the camouflage car currently exposed, the front face of the Hongqi H6 adopts a split light group, with sharp LED daytime running lights at the top and headlights arranged up and down below. At the same time, the distance from the front axle to the firewall is relatively short, so we speculate that the Hongqi H6 should use a transverse front-drive platform, rather than a rear-drive platform like the H9. Considering the relative entry-level positioning of the H6, the front-drive platform is also very reasonable, which can effectively reduce the price of the vehicle. In addition, some domestic netizens have drawn a hypothetical picture of the red flag H6 according to the camouflage car, and the front face looks like a small H9, and the recognition is still very high.
The side design of the Hongqi H6 is relatively traditional, the rounded roof curve is a bit of An Audi flavor, and the door handle is also a traditional style, without the current popular but not very practical hidden door handle.
Judging from the spy photos, the tail design of the Red Flag H6 is still relatively young, with a through-type light strip in the middle and a vertical diffusion light group on both sides, inspired by the tail feathers of the bow and arrow. In order to further enhance the sporty sense of the vehicle, the trunk cover of the Hongqi H6 is also made of a raised ducktail shape, and the lower part adopts a solid bilateral single exhaust.
The interior part, according to the exposed photos, the Hongqi H6 will use the popular vertical central control large screen, and there will also be a full LCD dashboard. This large-screen interior not only conforms to today's trends, but also reduces the cost of interior design. However, in order to make the large-screen interior texture, it is still a great test of the designer's skill, and the ease of use of the car system and the UI design style are also very critical.
In terms of power, the new car is expected to use a 2.0T engine with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. As for the price, the current price range of H5 is 145,800-190,800 yuan, while the H7 is 25.28-28.88 million. Then the red flag H6 between the two, the price range will naturally be stuck at the price of 190,000-250,000. In this way, The Hongqi H6 will compete head-on with the Camry, Accord, Passat, Maiten and other joint venture brand medium-sized cars in the future, do you think the Hongqi H6 can occupy its own place?
