Ford Lingrui has been released at the 2021 Guangzhou Auto Show, the first time you see this car, you must think that it is the same from Jiangling Ford Lingyu, especially the front face, the family design is simply the same mold printed out. However, Lingrui's body is significantly smaller, with a length, width and height dimensions of 4630/1935/1706mm and a wheelbase of 2726mm, which is a medium-sized SUV.

Lingrui's interior also retains a lot of similar designs, steering wheel shape, dual screen design, knob shift, and hollow middle channel design, all of which have common points. Of course, even in the family style, Lingrui has its own characteristics. Overall, this interior has long been without the silly and rough feeling of American cars, and it really did not disappoint.

The new car launched this time, Jiangling Ford did not carry it with the 2.0T engine of Lingyu, but was equipped with a 1.5T engine with a maximum horsepower of 170 hp, a peak torque of 260 Nm, and matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. It's not like the style of American cars. It seems that Lingrui has also learned the principle of enough to use.

Judging from the current pre-price, lingrui's price has not opened up the gap with lingyu, which is not necessarily a good thing, because it is easy to evolve into a situation where their own people beat their own people, and finally lead to the sales performance of both cars will be restricted.

However, this is not the final price of Lingrui, and compared with the Changan Ford Rui at the same price, Lingrui may be more attractive to consumers. If the final pricing is more surprising, this car may be able to make Jiangling Ford have a day out.

In addition, whether it is a hatchback or a sedan version, the Fox ST-Line models are equipped with a new sporty kit. At the same time, the new Fox is suspected of adding an S-EDITION version and adding an exclusive pull-out design.

However, the most interesting change in the new Focus is that it is fully equipped with a new 1.5T engine codenamed CAF479WQ6, with a maximum power of 130 kilowatts. This set of code names differs only by the last digit from the 1.5T engine of the Ford Impreza, code-named CAF479WQ5.

At the same time, judging from the code rules, the new Focus's new CAF479WQ6 engine is no longer a three-cylinder engine, but a four-cylinder engine. However, seeing the code name similar to the Ford Impreza engine, the degree to which this engine is "new" still has to be questioned.

Some people believe that the reason why those models equipped with three-cylinder engines with various new technologies have not sold well in China is that consumers do not understand cars. But in fact, most of the current three-cylinder engines have not shown a significant advantage in front of the four-cylinder engine, but the shortcomings can not be completely eliminated, so consumers have not been able to accept the three-cylinder engine.

Changan Ford's mid-term modification of Fox this time to replace the four-cylinder engine, may also be a helpless move, Fox sales have not been able to come up, Changan Ford must be very anxious. However, the reason why The Fox is not selling well is probably not only because it is equipped with a three-cylinder engine, but also because of the "Buddha" marketing of Changan Ford in recent years.
