From the year-end inventory of a single model, in addition to the more eye-catching annual sales champion and runner-up, some models located in the "waist" also have a lot worth talking about, although the market performance is not as eye-catching as the annual sales champion and runner-up, but its still strong market performance, enough to have a weight in the position of the "waist", a little effort may change the original market segment pattern. Today, the courier brother will talk about the Haval big dog, Auchan X5 and other five "waist" SUVs.
Haval Big Dog
Haval big dog as the Great Wall Haval brand under the alternative SUV, both the appearance of hardcore off-road vehicles, but also the femininity of urban SUV, many car friends and netizens said that Haval big dog is the Great Wall Motor's "Haval Tank 300", while taking into account the daily life of the car at the same time, but also extended to the hardcore off-road market segment. It is another embodiment of the precise positioning of Great Wall Motor's product models on the market.
In the past 2021, the cumulative sales of Haval Dogs exceeded 100,000 units in the whole year, of which 13,028 units were sold in December last year. The square design is one of the signs of the success of the Haval dog, and after getting tired of the aesthetic fatigue of the urban SUV on the street, the slightly alternative Haval dog immediately captured the psychology of consumers. Although the Haval big dog is slower than expected market heat, it should also respond to a sentence: good food is not afraid of late.
Auchan X5
Although Auchan currently promotes only Auchan X5 and Auchan X7, Auchan is already a new growth point for Changan Automobile in terms of sales. In 2021, the cumulative sales volume of the Auchan brand was 228,000 units, of which the Auchan X5 occupied half of the Auchan brand, and the cumulative sales volume for the whole year was 128526 units, of which the sales volume in December last year was 10,009 units, becoming the main sales pillar of Auchan Automobile.
The market positioning is the Entry-level Compact SUV Of auchan X5, with a length of 4490mm, and a wheelbase of 2710mm, equipped with 1.6L and 1.5T two sets of power combinations to choose from, NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 km at 6L-6.3L. Competitors are mainly concentrated in models such as the Haval M6 PLUS and BYD Song Classic Edition. High value, high cost performance and fine workmanship, etc., have reached a solid foundation for Auchan X5 to compete in the market, and the hot sales of Auchan X5 are basically expected.
Trumpchi GS4
For this car, we are basically no strangers, the SUV field used to be a "dark horse" model, that year almost squeezed out the Haval H6 single-month sales crown, but in the market competition, due to the Trumpchi GS4 update is too slow, missed the market opportunity. Today, Trumpchi GS4 has formed a family product matrix, including Trumpchi GS4 and GS4 PLUS. Although the current market performance is not as good as before, its influence in the market is still obvious to all.
In the past 2021, the cumulative sales volume of trumpchi GS4 for the whole year was 95,204 units, of which 8,802 units were sold in December last year. Compared with competitors such as Haval H6, CS75 series and Boyue, there is a big sales gap, but the total sales of nearly 100,000 units in the whole year are enough to show that the market influence of Trumpchi GS4 cannot be ignored. With the improvement of Trumpchi GS4 family product models and the enhancement of market competitiveness, the Trumpchi GS4 series may inadvertently "explode".
Changan CS55 PLUS
As one of the main models of Changan Automobile, although the Changan CS55 does not have the eye-catching market performance of the CS75 series, it also has a relatively large voice in the market segment. Nowadays, after being renewed and named Changan CS55 PLUS, it can be said that it has been rejuvenated. The cumulative sales volume of the car in 2021 reached 140579 units, of which 14,352 units were sold in December last year.
With an average monthly sales of more than 11,700 Units, the Changan CS55 PLUS has a length of 4,500 (4,515) mm and a wheelbase of 2,650 (2,656) mm, and is equipped with a 1.5T power combination, which can reach up to 188 (180) horsepower and 300 Nm of torque. NEDC's comprehensive fuel consumption is 100 km at 5.7L-6.2L. Changan CS55 PLUS, which is called "small CS75 PLUS" by car friends and netizens, will launch a new round of impact after consolidating its market position.
Gilly Star Cross L
As one of the main members of the Geely "Star Family", geely Star Yue L is listed later, but its market performance is quite strong, although affected by the "lack of core", in the sales climbing period of Geely Star L lost some sales, but its rising market momentum will still make it difficult to ignore the competitors. In 2021, the cumulative sales volume of Xingyue L was 43,437 units, of which 12,035 units were sold in December.
Geely Xingyue L, which adopts a competitive market model, is positioned as a compact SUV, but its length has reached 4770mm, the wheelbase has reached 2845mm, and it is equipped with a 2.0T power combination. Combined with the configuration, power and price, the advantages of the Geely Star L are much better than some compact SUVs, coupled with the help of the advantages of large space, the Star Yue L is not sold much, it is a bit unreasonable.
Summary: To tell the truth, in the cruel market competition, any new model entering the market, must go through the baptism of the car market, only through the pain of market competition, can there be another village. As the mainstay of the "waist" position in the SUV field, whether it is The Haval Dog, Trumpchi GS5 or Changan CS55 PLUS and Geely Xingyue L, etc., in the market competition in 2022, it is still necessary to carry the weight forward, you say?
