The so-called one-year plan lies in the spring, even if it is the Spring Festival holiday, car companies have not "closed" and promoted the new car plan step by step. So, in the "first month" of the Lunar New Year, what blockbuster new cars are about to be listed in the domestic market? Today, Brother Reed will take you to know first, friends who want to drive a new car in the New Year, don't miss it!
Star Trail Wind Chase ET-i
As the first model under Xingtu to be equipped with "Star Core Power ET-i Full Engine Super Hybrid" plug-in hybrid technology, Xingtu Wind Chasing ET-i has opened pre-sale in January, with a pre-sale price of 150,000-160,000 yuan. It is reported that the StarWay Wind Chase ET will be expected to be officially listed in February.
In terms of appearance, the Starway Wind Chasing ET-i still continues the design style of the Starway Wind Chasing, and only some details have been adjusted, such as the ET-i logo added to the rear of the car, and the charging interface added to the left front wheel eyebrow to highlight the special identity of plug-in hybrid models. The Starway Wind Chaser ET-i has a length, width and height of 4533/1848/1699mm, a wheelbase of 2670mm, and a compact positioning SUV.
In terms of power that everyone pays more attention to, the Starway Wind Chasing ET-i will be equipped with a plug-in hybrid system composed of a 1.5T engine and an electric motor, matching the 3-speed DHT hybrid special gearbox. According to The official name of Xingtu, the pure electric mileage of the Xingtu Wind Chasing ET-i can reach 105km, the 100-kilometer time of the four-wheel drive model is within 5 seconds, the comprehensive cruising range is more than 1000km, and the fuel consumption is 4.8L/100km.
Compared with BYD's DM-i and Great Wall's Lemon Smart DHT, Xingtu's ET-i technology seems to be a bit late and failed to catch up with the first hybrid dividend. If you can surprise domestic consumers from the final pricing of the listing, maybe Xingtu Chase ET-i can really become a dark horse in the domestic plug-and-mix SUV market.
Changan second-generation CS75 PLUS
The CS75 series has always been one of Changan Automobile's sales responsibilities. In 2019, CS75 PLUS was officially listed, and its sporty appearance and high cost performance have been favored by many domestic consumers. Brother Ruan learned from Changan Automobile that Changan's second-generation CS75 PLUS will be officially listed in February, and its current pre-sale price is 127,900-15.49 million yuan.
Although it is officially called "Changan Second Generation CS75 PLUS", it is actually a mid-term modification of CS75 PLUS, not a "replacement model" in the traditional sense. From the appearance point of view, the new car does make a difference from the current model, a light strip runs through the front face, the area of the lower grille has become larger and more domineering; the rear tail light group has also kept up with the trend of the times and become a through-through design; the bilateral exhaust below is still retained, but the size has become more coarse.
In terms of power, Changan's second-generation CS75 PLUS still has two engines for consumers to choose from, 1.5T and 2.0T, while the Aisin 8AT gearbox has been upgraded to the standard of the whole series, which combines strong power and low fuel consumption.
From the appearance, power and product positioning, the second generation of CS75PLUS seems to have become more "mature". Looking back at the past 2021, Changan Automobile has successively launched new models such as UNI-T, UNI-K and UNI-V that target the young consumer market. For those "Generation Z" who pursue sports and personalization, Changan has launched the UNI series for them; and for those consumers who pursue high cost performance and strong practicality, the CS series is the best choice.
SAIC Audi Q5 e-tron
In 2021, SAIC Audi launched the brand's first model, the SAIC Audi A7L, achieving a breakthrough from "0" to "1". In 2022, SAIC Audi will launch the Q5 e-tron and a new medium- and large-size fuel SUV. As the first pure electric model of the SAIC Audi brand, the Q5e-tron is expected to be officially launched in February, and its current pre-sale price is 400,000-520,000 yuan.
Like models such as THE ID.4 X and ID.6 X, the Q5 e-tron is also based on the MEB platform, so you can also see the shadow of the two. The Q5e-tron is based on the Audi Concept Shanghai concept car, the family-style large-mouth grille is not absent, but it has been changed to a closed design, and the front and two ends are also similar to the Audi e-tron; the body size of the new car is 4876/1860/1675mm, the wheelbase is 2965mm, and it is positioned as a medium and large pure electric SUV.
The interior is also full of "Audi flavor". The 10.25-inch full LCD display and the 11.6-inch embedded central control screen are all designed from Audi. Below is a separate "function island" that integrates vehicle start keys, electronic shifts, multimedia space components and driving mode switching, etc., and the overall shape is quite simple.
In the power segment, the Q5 e-tron will offer 40 e-tron single-motor rear-drive and 50 e-tron quattro front and rear dual-motor four-wheel drive models, with maximum power of 150kW and 225kW respectively, and CLTC cruising range of 560km and 520km, respectively.
In the future, the Q5 e-tron will have to face "familiar strangers" such as bmw iX3 and Mercedes-Benz EQC. Whether it is from the outside or the interior, you can clearly feel that "this is an Audi", and you don't have to be unfamiliar with it. In addition, thanks to the empowerment of the MEB platform, the body length of less than 4.9 meters also lowered the third row of seats, which is also unattainable for many opponents of the same level.
However, because of the MEB platform, such a medium and large pure electric SUV of 500,000 levels, the rear wheel is still using drum brakes. As for whether it can be recognized by consumers? We'll see.
These blockbuster new cars, which will be launched in February, cover pure fuel, hybrid and pure electric products. In addition to the above models, the Maple Leaf 60S, Volvo XC40 RECHARGE P6 and other models are expected to be launched in February. Friends who want to pick up a new car in February, you can pay more attention to the My car rut!
