Now the inner volume of the automotive industry is getting stronger and stronger, and if there is no real effort, car companies are easily eliminated by the market. No, at the beginning of 2022, there is another car company that can't stand up and choose bankruptcy, and this car company is still a joint venture, that is, Renault Brilliance Jinbei Automobile Manufacturing Plant.
Presumably, many small partners have heard about Jinbei cars. In previous years, it was definitely the champion model of the market segment, and later the introduction of Renault, I wanted to rely on Renault's funds to make the technology catch fire again. But the release of new car products has been delayed again and again, and it took a total of three years from its inception to the actual launch of the first product, how can this speed break through in the increasingly competitive automotive circle? Therefore, at the end of 2021, there are rumors that this car company will go bankrupt.
Unexpectedly, at the beginning of 2022, this car company exploded, and the ending was lamentable. It should be known that its predecessor Shenyang Brilliance Jinbei is a brother of light passengers in Zheng'er Bajing, and it is also the first light bus company in China to sell more than 1 million. But the glory of the past does not mean the present, and the former killer skills can obviously not be eaten all over the sky in one move. If you don't advance, you will retreat, and the principle of retreat is fully exerted in this joint venture car company.
So how do strong independent brands do now? Today we will talk about a new model, this model is Changan Auchan X7 PLUS. From its naming method, we can easily know that this new car is from Auchan Automobile, and Auchan is a sub-brand of Changan Automobile, so we can think of how rich Changan Automobile's products are, right?
In fact, Changan Auchan is definitely a "descendant" for existing brands. But the "rising star" car company's total sales in 2021 are approaching 230,000 vehicles, while the total sales of the X7 series have exceeded 210,000.
In addition to intensive product launch, the product competitiveness of Changan Auchan new car is also very outstanding, and the Changan Auchan X7 PLUS we talked about today is upgraded on the basis of X7. Despite being an upgraded SUV, the price of this model is still very grounded, and the manufacturer guidance price of Auchan X7 PLUS is 79,900 yuan to 133,900 yuan. From this pricing point of view, it is easy to be accepted by young consumers or working people.
Obviously, this new car not only has a price advantage, the overall design of Auchan X7 PLUS is also more in line with the needs of current consumers. The overall design of the new car is relatively fashionable and particularly sporty, and this design has fully reached the level of first-line joint venture cars. In the front face, the sharp headlights of the new car are matched with the light source of the LED, in addition, the new car also has a large intake net, which is also in line with the aesthetics of the Chinese people, the mouth is big and square, the meaning is very good. In addition, the new car is also equipped with fog lights, red lines, chrome material, both sporty and detailed polished very well.
From the side, the design of the whole vehicle is relatively wide: to create a tall and spacious visual sense for us, which is also a design element that the Chinese people like. And the new car is also equipped with a suspended roof and R18-inch aluminum alloy wheels, the design is tall and not bloated, and it is more flexible. Although auchan X7 PLUS is a compact SUV, the body data is pressing on many mid-level SUVs, don't you believe it? The length, width and height are: 4730*1870*1720mm, and the wheelbase is 2786mm.
Auchan X7 PLUS has a high ground clearance, so whether it is a city scooter or walking on a bad country road, Auchan X7 PLUS is no problem. In order to further reduce the maintenance costs caused by scratching, the new car is equipped with a black diffuser, which can effectively prevent scratching. This Auchan X7 PLUS has a very good sense of fashion, with through-type taillights, and a large area after lighting at night, and the safety factor is obviously improved.
Inside the car, we can feel that the entire interior is indeed quite modern, and it has not reduced the configuration or design level because of the low price. The central control part of the new car is equipped with a 12.3-inch large floating screen design, and it is richly equipped with five kinds of speech recognition control systems, facial recognition systems, gesture control systems and so on. It is worth mentioning that this central control large screen has built-in on the full-scene On style 3.0 intelligent control car machine interaction system, which can also realize APA 5.0 one-key parking, and has an all-weather bodyguard monitoring system to guard our car in real time.
After testing, I found that the central control screen of the new car reacted quickly, and later learned that this new car is equipped with an octa-core chip, with strong computing power and no stuttering. The driving computer screen is equipped with a 10.25-inch full LCD color instrument panel, equipped with a multi-functional leather steering wheel, which is particularly easy to use.
The seat of the new car is the industry's first space getaway chair, in addition to having a good visual sense, its ergonomic design is also in place, and it will not feel particularly tired for a long time. If you think it's boring to sit in the car, you can open the no-wheat car KTV, hi a song, because the new car system comes with a car KTV configuration.
The rear seating space of the new car is particularly spacious, with 140mm of second row leg space; the second row of platform uplift is fully flat; the new car also has a panoramic sunroof and an oversized trunk, whether it is riding or bringing some goods.
Look at the powertrain of the new car. Auchan X7 PLUS is equipped with Blue Whale's new generation of 1.5T in-cylinder high-pressure direct injection engine, the maximum power of the engine is 188 horsepower, the peak torque is 300N·m, and it is matched by the Blue Whale seven-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. This powertrain adopts air-guided high-efficiency ultra-clean combustion technology, so the fuel consumption of the new car is low, and the fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is only 6.6 liters. By the way, in addition to the surging power of this Auchan X7 PLUS, the chassis uses four-wheel independent suspension, and is equipped with transparent chassis technology, even if you are a small white, you can easily drive.
Seeing this, we should understand that the competition in the automotive circle is indeed very strong, so we see that this Changan Auchan X7 PLUS does have a strong strength, which is a good product that contemporary car companies should have.
