In this era of "looking at the face", the "appearance" of a consumer product has become one of the important factors for consumers to choose it. For example, if the appearance of the car is in line with our inner aesthetics, we will consider the follow-up operations such as test drive and inquiry. Of course, the "appearance" thing is often the wisdom of the benevolent. Next, the author will list a few models that I see as high-value models.
Changan UNI-V
Pre-price: 134,900 yuan
Model highlights: electric lifting tail wing, slip back shape
Changan brand "UNI" series focuses on youth sports, the first car in the series UNI-V, has also begun to accept reservations.

When the rear wing is raised, it can increase the downforce by about 25 kg and reduce the drag coefficient of 0.007Cd, which increases the stability of the body and reduces fuel consumption.
In terms of interior, the dashboard and the large central control screen adopt a misplaced design, which greatly enhances the sense of hierarchy of the entire center console. In addition, the dashboard is composed of three screens, and the overall sense of technology is full. In other respects, orange accents are used in many parts of the car to add a little vitality, and the dual D steering wheel and paddle shifters also look very sporty.
