I don't know from what year, many of my friends seem to be in love with playing used cars, those even older than their own age of the "backward" industrial products, but also become the choice of many young people, some people are to realize their dreams, and more often because the new car is "not fun, fun is too expensive." Some fun and inexpensive old fuel vehicles were once speculated to a price double the price of the original second-hand car, which I would like to call a financial artifact. So is there really no interesting soul for affordable and new listings? Can you only play used cars? Not really! Friends who want to buy big toys, don't miss these new cars this year.
First, Toyota GR 86
In the first place is definitely the Toyota GR86, the name 86 carries not only the soul of the driver, but also the childhood of a generation. Maybe the appearance has changed, the name has changed a little, but what has not changed is the heart of the shrimp catcher. The engine is still horizontally opposed, but has been upgraded in terms of displacement and power, with displacement increased from the previous 2.0L to 2.4L, maximum horsepower of 235ps, maximum torque of 250Nm, and 6.3 seconds of acceleration time per 100 km/h. At the same time, the new car has strengthened the frame and increased the torsional rigidity of the whole vehicle by 50%, which is definitely improved in handling.
In terms of price, we can now refer to the new 86 brother model BRZ, this car has been booked in 2021, the new car can reach the domestic in the first quarter of this year, asked the netizens who booked the car, the current landing price is about 350,000 yuan, and the overall price of GR86 and BRZ is not too different, the same is equipped with manual models. Indeed, compared with the GT86, this generation of new cars is a little more expensive, and there is no National VI emission standard model, which has become the biggest problem for some cities.
Second, Honda Civic TYPE-R
The new generation of TYPE-R will be officially introduced by Dongfeng Honda in 2022, and this introduction to TYPE-R I think is enough to make people's blood boil.
TYPE-R was born in the 1990s, this period can be said to be the peak of Japan's automobile development, this era of Japan gave birth to many classic legendary performance cars, such as Toei Ferrari NSX, Supra, GTR, RX9, EVO, RX-7, 3000GT and so on, each of which is famous. To this day, there are still very few models that still pass on the gene and soul, TPYE-R is one of the few, although there are still some things to be determined, but it is certain that this car is only equipped with manual transmission, only for the driver, Dongfeng Honda really introduced this car into the country, it is really too good.
Third, Toyota GR Yaris
After the launch of the new car of the TNGA structure in recent years, Toyota has made a lot of money on the family car, so Akio Toyoda decided to spend some money to develop a new toy, so in 2020, Toyota Gazoo Racing Division created an ultimate Yaris - GR Yaris. This car was a civilian car developed in reverse through racing at that time in order to meet the certification rules of participating in the WRC, and its impracticality can be imagined.
In order to lose weight, GR Yaris is equipped with a three-cylinder engine, I don't know, but I know that the people who bought this car will not care about this, this 1.6T three-cylinder engine was squeezed out of 272PS by Toyota, the maximum torque is 370Nm, 0-100km acceleration for 5.5 seconds, while matching 6-speed manual transmission, full-time four-wheeler and adjustable suspension, the front and rear left and right four door plates are made of aluminum alloy, the roof of the whole piece is made of carbon fiber, through the extreme weight reduction, the vehicle weight is only 1.13 tons. With the ultimate running lap setting and tuning, the car set a 7:39 seconds in the New North BTG lap. I think this is probably the ultimate steel cannon.
Unfortunately, GR Yaris because of the relatively low production, the new car release in the early stage of the domestic introduction. It is understood that this car is likely to be released in China this year, well, although every year says the next year, but we also have to live and work hard with the expectation of the introduction of new cars!
IV. Lotus Emira
This car is Lotus's fuel car singing, after what electric vehicle we do not care, at least on this car Lotus is given full sincerity, the domestic introduction of the version equipped with A45 S that set of the strongest surface 2.0 liter turbo engine and AMG supporting 8-speed dual clutch, that set of 3.5 liters naturally aspirated engine, with the powertrain of the manual transmission, it is possible that because of emissions and taxes and other issues will not be introduced.
Although this car is no longer the corinthine Chapman-style design concept that will do everything to the extreme for driving, it still adheres to some traditions in terms of aerodynamic performance, and in the same class, the same price point of the model, its aerodynamic design looks like it can be said to be the most exaggerated, from the appearance point of view, it is not too much to say that it is a supercar.
However, at present, only the domestic version has been released, the configuration is higher, and it is estimated that a version with a lower configuration will be released next year, which is more cost-effective.
Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS
This is definitely a toy for rich people. Don't look at its name is 718, but the suffix is followed by a GT4 RS, and the biggest difference between it and other 718s is the engine. The GT4 RS engine is the same 4.0-liter naturally aspirated horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine of the 992 GT3 that cannot enter the country, which can burst 500PS on this 718 Cayman.
It will also upgrade the aerodynamic kit and make extensive use of carbon fiber, while the original wheels use center locks, carbon brakes, tail swan neck large tail design, etc., which is completely a configuration that can directly get off the track. This car really made me goosebump up. So the detoxification part can not be less: 1, although this GT4 is faster than the old model, it is also handsome, but there is no 6MT; 2, more than 1.5 million naked car prices, there is no doubt that the luxury car tax is inescapable, the whole car is simply installed on the ground about 2.4 million yuan. Well, I know that the reason why some people choose not to buy this car must be that there is no manual transmission.
Sixth, BMW M240i
According to the planning information that recently flowed out of the interior, BMW will introduce M240i in the third quarter next year, and since the discontinuation of F22 M240i in 2019, the new model has finally been introduced into China at a time that no one expected, which is also a happy event comparable to the New Year for the majority of Bimmer.
And it is understood that the version introduced into China will be a post-drive version, and only a four-wheel drive version is currently listed abroad. The most important thing is that hidden under the front bonnet is a 3.0L in-line 6 turbo pure gasoline engine, with a maximum power of 374PS, 0-100km acceleration of 4.3 seconds, compared to the previous generation of models 0.3 seconds shorter, this performance is close to the F87 M2 Thunder version of the 4.2 seconds 100 km acceleration performance.
summary:
When taking stock of these new cars, I seem to forget one thing for a moment: I am in an era of rapidly changing automobile transformation, and electrification and intelligence are the major trends of future development. When suddenly awakened, I can't help but sigh that there are so many manufacturers in this era who are willing to risk introducing such "backward" new cars into the country, and the preferences of a small number of people can still be satisfied. We used to always like to tease: next time for sure. These four short words make every car company boss executive feel frightened, but... Promise me that if I can, don't "next time definitely" this time, because some cars may not really have a next time.
