Reports from The GreatAuto
The book picked up last time, The Auto Panjun took stock of six annual new cars for everyone, but I believe that everyone may also have some unfinished thoughts, so we have prepared 6 annual blockbuster new cars in this period to continue to give you a solution, and the last period is all SUVs and cars are different, we have brought two MPV models with high attention this year in addition to the two conventional models of cars and SUVs.
With the release and landing of the two-tire and three-tire policy, MPV models have gradually become accepted by consumers, which can also be seen in the trend of MPV sales this year. Without further ado, let's start this inventory.
GREATAUTO
Beijing Hyundai Kusitu
For our Chinese, the concept of family must be the most important, the concept of the family will also affect the choice of car purchase, under the influence of the multi-tire policy, all five-seater models have been completely unable to meet the dream of the whole family to travel, at this time, the mission naturally fell on the MPV model.
Kustu is a Hyundai MPV model specially developed for the domestic market, maintaining Hyundai's excellent tradition of "low price and high matching", relying on this tradition to enter the market strongly, and indeed set off a layer of waves in the domestic MPV market. Qi Yujun believes that the biggest highlight of the Kustu vehicle is its space and the second row of seats, and the comfort can almost be regarded as invincible at the same level.
Even in the power system that is not the most important for the MPV, the Kustu is also a painstaking effort, for comfort considerations, even the 1.5T model is equipped with an 8AT gearbox as standard, compared to the dual-clutch transmission, although the gear shift speed is sacrificed, but for the positioning of the Kustu, this decision is worth it.
Compared with other competing models of the joint venture brand, Kustu has chosen a more comprehensive approach, with excellent space, rich configuration and high cost performance are the key to its recognition in the terminal market, and it also proves from the side that it is a "popularizer" of a household MPV.
GAC Toyota Xena
As a god-class MPV model that is well known in the North American market, Toyota Syna has always been a phenomenon model overseas. For this year's car market, Sai Na comes with its own traffic, from spy photo exposure to the debut of new cars to the official listing, every link is like a depth bomb, and every move shakes the rhythm of the car circle.
As a Toyota car born in the North American market, the overall design of Xena is also more inclined to the aesthetic style of the old beauty, and even after domestic production, the unique appearance is still continued. With a length of more than 5 meters 1 and a wheelbase of more than 3 meters, its interior space is quite large, and the overall performance is not inferior to the evergreen Buick GL8 in the MPV market.
On the Xena, Toyota is equipped with the latest THS hybrid system, the power configuration of the 2.5L+ motor ensures good performance at the same time, but also has a fuel economy of less than 6L of fuel consumption per 100 kilometers, for an MPV, this power system is quite in line with its tonality.
In fact, Xena's strong entry is obviously to make up for Toyota's product vacancies in the domestic MPV segment. From the perspective of positioning, the positioning of Xena is obviously higher than that of models such as Odyssey, but compared with the GL8 for pure business purposes, it seems that the home attributes are more obvious on Xena's body. So from this point of view, it is clear that Xena is not here to grab the market share of GL8. From Toyota's own point of view, the introduction at this time can undoubtedly better tap the demand, while at the same time can catch the shuttle for the growth of China's MPV market, and can improve the short board of the brand in the high-end MPV, killing several birds with one stone.
Dongfeng Honda New Yingshipai
As a product of Honda's China twin-car strategy, together with accord in the domestic B-class car market, after the mid-year redesign, Yingshipai has also re-found a more accurate positioning of itself, that is, "a B-class car that takes into account young sports".
Like accord, Yingshipai is a very good product power of the B-class car, compared to the old model, the mid-term redesign of the Yingshipai in the intelligent improvement is visible to the naked eye, in the past few years, compared with the rapid progress of the new car-making forces in terms of intelligence, the traditional car companies seem to be slightly conservative, but fortunately, Dongfeng Honda stopped losses in time, for the new Yingshipai used the latest Honda CONNECT 3.0 intelligent guidance interconnection system in the Honda family, which gave it the degree of intelligence that does not lose the new forces of car manufacturing In this way, the new Yingshipai naturally expands the potential customer base imperceptibly.
In addition to the improvement of intelligence, the new Yingshipai's pursuit of driving texture is also reflected, on the new Yingshipai, Dongfeng Honda is equipped with ADS full-time adaptive suspension system, the filtering of most road conditions is more thorough, and when passing through the undulating road section, the rear of the car does not have any excess jumping, full of tightness, more than a sense of superiority.
QiPaijun believes that as the flagship sedan of Dongfeng Honda, Yingshipai has assumed the responsibility of Dongfeng Honda brand upwards, and with its excellent product strength, it will become a highly competitive model in the same class.
GAC Trumpchi Shadow Leopard
In today's Chinese auto market, many independent brands have launched sporty-oriented models, but if you want to say that the most famous of them, then I think it is naturally the GAC Trumpchi Shadow Leopard that created history.
Like Sai Na, GAC Trumpchi Shadow Leopard is also a highly topical new car this year, after all, it represents the façade of its own brand sports models, as the first coupe model under GAC Trumpchi, whether it is its GPMA architecture or Julang's power matching, it provides technical support for it in sports. Although the overall power perception cannot be compared with the real performance car, it is not at all afraid when compared with the joint venture brand sports models such as Civic and Fiesta.
The biggest highlight of the whole vehicle is undoubtedly the design of the exhaust valve, the valve switch is on the steering wheel, and the sound after opening is relatively dull, which will not bring the trouble of "blowing up the street". As we all know, it is very simple for ordinary models to change the tail section exhaust, but if the price can be remotely closed valve, the amount of work is not small, and the modification cost will even be tens of thousands, so at this point of view, the shadow leopard is still quite thick.
Qi Panjun believes that in the price range of 100,000 yuan, the Shadow Leopard is indeed a rare sports car, and its arrival has truly implemented the idea of "civilian small steel cannon", which cannot be given by other models, and it is also the core competitiveness of the Shadow Leopard.
Changan Automobile UNI-K
I don't know if you found it, in recent years, independent brands are highlighting family-style faces, such as Geely's sonar-style Chinese network and Chang'an UNI family's dot-shaped Xinghui-style Chinese network. However, if you want to talk about the most eye-catching design, then I think the Changan UNI family must be on the list.
Compared with the fashion movement of UNI-V, the higher positioning of UNI-K is obviously more stable, as a medium-sized SUV model within 200,000 yuan, UNI-K's product strength is not bad, especially its degree of intelligence. The LCD display in the car integrates three screens of 10.25 + 9.2 + 3.5 inches, so there is no need to look down during driving, and all the information is clear at a glance.
The most commendable thing is that UNI-K did not follow the trend of creating a seven-seater model, but carried out the large five-seater to the end, and for the rear passengers, it is easy to experience the relaxation brought by "Ge You Lie" in the second row.
As the flagship model in the Changan UNI family, the power level of the UNI-K is also quite high-standard, and the powertrain of the Blue Whale 2.0T + Aisin 8AT has a maximum horsepower of 233Ps and a peak torque of 390N·m, and you can experience the acceleration feeling anytime and anywhere.
As an excellent product of Changan's impact on the high-end market, UNI-K has broken through all the inherent impressions of independent brands, so its great success is inevitable. And coupled with its excellent results in the Zhongbao Research Institute test, it also paved the way for it in the future.
Geely Automobile Hoshikoshi L
Since the acquisition of Volvo, Geely has left people with the impression of "independent brand big brother", and it is true that as one of the earliest car companies to start branding upwards, Geely has walked quite smoothly on the road of high-end.
For Geely, the most concerned model in 2021 must be none other than Star-Etsu L, and the results of almost monthly sales of more than 10,000 also confirm its strength from the front. It is no exaggeration to say that the performance of Hoshikoshi L in 2021 can really be described as unstoppable, single-handedly pushing Geely to the top again.
In terms of product strength, whether it is design, size, configuration performance or 2.0T powertrain from Volvo, Xingyue L is a bright spot in the same level, and the Above Changan UNI-K can be described as "needle tip to Mai Mang".
Geely, which has a CMA architecture and an E-Drive engine, perfectly utilizes the technical advantages, and the blue is better than the blue, making the performance of the Xingyue L in terms of comfort and sound insulation and noise reduction even better than some volvo models, such a high level of independent brand models, is what our consumers love.
Looking at the entire Chinese auto market, it can be said that the development path chosen by each car company is different, geely knows the true meaning of it, even in the high-end process, it will still carry out the inner volume to the end. For enterprises, this is not necessarily a good thing, after all, this is diluting their own profits, still in the initial stage of winning at a cost-effective price; but for consumers, this is extremely favorable, more affordable to buy a more high-tech car, who is not happy?
Write at the end:
In a sense, the end of 2021 can only be regarded as a beginning, which refers to the evolution process of traditional camp products in personalization and design thinking.
In 2022, we have reason to believe that the development speed of MPV models in China will also become faster and faster, and the Chinese auto market will really blossom.
