In the past, as a special car for receiving foreign guests and state leaders, the Hongqi car has always been a target that ordinary people can not reach. However, with the introduction of H5, H7, H9, E-HS9 and other models for the general public in recent years, the Hongqi brand has attracted more and more attention from ordinary consumers.
Especially after the Tokyo Olympic Games, Hongqi gave each Olympic champion an H9 car, which was enough eyeballs. Now hongqi H6 is freshly baked, although the car has not yet been officially listed, but the test car has begun road testing, which will be one of the few products under Hongqi for young consumer groups.
The exterior design is similar to H9, and the overall style is more youthful
Hongqi H6 is positioned between Hongqi H5 and H7, from the previous Hongqi model strategic planning and currently on sale, Hongqi H7 and H9 are positioned as medium and large cars, while H5 and H7 are positioned as medium-sized cars. Similar to the relationship with H7 and H9, H6 should have a significant upgrade in styling and configuration compared to H5.
Recently, many netizens have seen the test car of Hongqi H6 on the road, but because it is the road test stage, the appearance of the new car is wrapped by special coating, but the appearance of the whole car has been very clear.
Judging from the test car photos and design sketches, the design style of the front face of the Hongqi H6 is very similar to that of the H9, and the U-shaped design is matched with a large area of grille and a straight waterfall shape, creating a strong sense of momentum and a high degree of recognition. Compared with the H9, the H6's headlights are sharper, and the split headlight design is adopted, showing a strong sense of movement.
The shape of the body side of the Hongqi H6 is quite different from that of the H9, and the side design of the H6 is more inclined to the ordinary car, and the ordinary door handle shape is used, and there is no hidden door handle of the H9. The styling of the entire side is decent, and even has some Audi A4L feel. However, the multi-width wheel shape continues the style of the red flag, and there is a vertical strip decoration at the connection between the front door and the fender, which still looks like it has a certain visual impact.
The shape of the rear of the car is still the overall style of "outer circle and inner square", and the through-type tail lights are matched with the brake lights of the "feather arrow" shape on both sides and the exhaust of the bilateral double, showing a strong sports atmosphere. Overall, the appearance of Hongqi H7 still has the shadow of Hongqi H9, but it is more inclined to young sports, and the customer population targeted in the future is also the main force of current automobile consumption, young people.
Interior large screen new design style
It is expected to be equipped with a 2.0T engine
Since the H6 is still in the testing stage, the official has not yet released the interior design of the new car, but from the picture shape of the test car, the Hongqi H6 adopts a new design style. The car adopts the overall style of a full LCD instrument panel with a large vertical central control touch screen. The large-area central control screen is a very popular design at present, and it is the key point for domestic cars to lead the joint venture car. It is expected that Hongqi H6 will also integrate most of the central control physical buttons into the central control large screen, and the intelligent configuration and practical car App will certainly not be absent. Such a configuration is already at an ordinary level in domestic cars, which is very catered to the needs of young consumers and is also in line with the positioning of Hongqi H6.
Visually, the body size of the Hongqi H6 is not much different from that of the H5, and it is expected to be similar in spatial performance. Judging from the spatial performance of the H5, although there is no very obvious advantage in the entire B-class car camp, it is enough to meet the daily car needs of young consumers. At present, the power configuration of The Hongqi H6 has not been officially announced, but it is expected that the new car will be equipped with a 2.0T engine, with a maximum output of about 200 horsepower, which is more in line with the needs of young consumers for high power output.
Competing with the Passat Accord for the market, H6 pricing is still high
Referring to the price of Hongqi H5 and H7, as well as the disclosure of people familiar with the matter, the price of this Hongqi H6 is 180,000-250,000, mainly for the car needs of young consumers, and is a volume model, and its main competitors are Honda Accord, Volkswagen Passat, Maiten and other models. However, at present, most consumers still have a certain prejudice against domestic cars, compared with the B-class market Evergreen Tree's Passat, Accord and other models, the pricing of Hongqi H6 does not have obvious advantages. Compared with domestic brand cars with similar configurations, the pricing of Hongqi H6 is somewhat high, and it still has no obvious competitiveness. However, it is believed that under the influence of many factors such as market and sales volume, the future of Hongqi H6 may have a lot of terminal discounts, which will effectively enhance the competitiveness of H6.
Write at the end
After Chairman Xu Liuping succeeded him as the new head of the Hongqi brand, hongqi has blossomed everywhere in the entire automobile market in recent years. Not only launched the flagship car Hongqi H9 known as "domestic Rolls-Royce", but also launched the Hongqi E-HS9 known as "China Electric Cullinan", the sales volume and brand influence of the entire Hongqi brand have also made a qualitative leap. However, the exposure of the Hongqi H6 is in a very embarrassing position, although from the perspective of Hongqi's consistent style, there is no problem with the comprehensive product strength of the vehicle, but the H6 has no price advantage compared to most joint venture B-class cars, and compared to the lack of highlights compared to domestic cars, the actual performance of the new car after the listing We wait and see.
