Compared with cars and SUVs, China's MPV market is still very "immature", compared with millions of sales, the sales volume of the SUV market is only "a dime", and from the sales data of 2021, it can be seen that the main sales products of the MPV market are "low-end" MPVs such as Wuling Hongguang, and their actual use may not be to carry people but to carry goods, for the household consumer market, the entire market still has a lot of room to explore.
It may be that the manufacturer perceives this, with the time into 2022, the major manufacturers began to exert their strength in this field, and a shot is very "high-end atmosphere", have aimed the price at more than 300,000 markets, today will introduce the 3 new cars that have not yet been listed in this field, although not yet listed, but does not prevent them from having some simple understanding in advance.
Red Flag MPV: High-end spoiler
As the most popular brand among domestic independent brands, the appeal of Hongqi has always been "OK", no matter what kind of car will be pursued by someone to pursue it, perhaps this is the appeal of the brand. After the successive launch of SUVs and sedan models, Hongqi may realize that it must enrich its product line as soon as possible in order to obtain greater competitiveness, so it "launched" the MPV model without warning, which seemed to be somewhat silent, but the media's "sense of smell" was still quite sensitive, and immediately found this "treasure" model.
Judging from the information released, Hongqi's MPV is mainly a high-end model, its second row adopts the layout of double independent seats, while the third row provides two and three seats options, and some media suspect that some high-end models of Hongqi MPV may provide four-seat business models in exchange for the "extreme" comfort of the second row. Judging from the current market situation, the use of such a design in Hongqi MPV is not out of thin air, because GAC's MPV models have top-of-the-line models that use such a "luxury" design.
In the powertrain, the Hongqi MPV may be equipped with a combination of a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine plus a 7-speed dual-clutch, and the high-end model will even be paired with a 3.0-liter turbocharged engine. For a high-end MPV, such a level of power is qualified, and a larger and smoother power is also a symbol of high-end model status. However, with the "vigorous development" of new energy models, such fuel vehicles seem to be more and more crowded out, and it is not known whether Hongqi MPV will be equipped with hybrid or pure electric systems in the future.
In general, with the brand effect of Hongqi, it should not be a problem to make this car "popular", but word of mouth and quality are still very critical, and I hope that Hongqi will keep its bottom line.
Arashi Tamamoto MPV: An atmospheric pure electric 7-seater car
I have seen the real car of the Lantu Dreamer, when it drove past me, I thought it was a high-end modified motorhome of a German brand, which also shows that the design of the Lantu Dreamer is very successful, and its more than 5 meters long and close to 2 meters make this MPV look "atmospheric".
Judging from the interior pictures that have been exposed, the interior design of The Lantu Dreamer has a very obvious shadow of the Lantu FREE, and the design of its three large screens is indeed very eye-catching, but the system logic of the Lantu Free is not easy to use, and I do not know whether the Lantu Dreamer has improved the UI.
As a high-end MPV, The Lando Dreamer will certainly offer a 7-seater model, and if not unexpectedly, it will also offer a 4-seater "high-end model" to meet the needs of business users. Compared with the Hongqi brand, Lantu has more layouts in household cars, and its brand and business do not seem to be too close. But that doesn't matter, because the Buick brand itself is closer to home than business, but this has not affected the sales of the Buick GL8 in the slightest.
The Lantu Dreamer is likely to be equipped with the same powertrain as the Lantu FREE, that is, a combination of a range extender engine and pure electric drive, according to my experience of test driving lantu FREE, consumers do not need to have any concerns about its power performance, but to consider whether it will be "overpowered" as an MPV; and in terms of chassis tuning, if you continue to use air suspension, you can get a good evaluation.
In general, whether the Lantu Dreamer can sell well depends on its price, and if it is as "confident" as Lantu FREE, I am afraid it will be a bit of a hindrance.
Extreme KrYPV: Pure electricity is risky
Extreme KrYPV product is a pure electric model, from the perspective of "novelty" there is no problem in line with the current people's pursuit of unknown things, but from the practical level of driving a pure electric MPV travel will not be a little inconvenient? In terms of travel during the New Year this year, the charging problem of pure electric models in long-distance time has still not been solved, and MPV, especially this positioning in high-end models, once there is a long-distance travel situation, will it be too exciting to grab the charging pile with the "leader"? When you hit someone, do you refer to your salary to work hard?
Just kidding, it is actually a very wise thing to launch appropriate products for the current market and policy environment, and as the second model of the Extreme Kr brand, it is necessary to launch an MPV product, presumably Extreme Kr is also "full of courage". From the official publicity point of view, the mileage of the extreme krypton MPV will reach 1000 kilometers, which eliminates the user's battery life anxiety on the book, and if it is only used as a city reception car, it does not have to worry too much, because it must be a qualified MPV product.
In terms of size, the Extreme Kr MPV and the Lantu Dreamer are comparable in size and offer a 7-seater layout, while the high-end model may offer a 4-seater model. Since the current exposure of information is too little, the outside world can only "guess" the extreme KrY MPV, from my point of view, I am still very much looking forward to the car as soon as possible.
Chinese brands do not lack high-end cars and SUVs, but in the field of MPV, the high-end market has been controlled by foreign brands, but as major independent brands "gradually enter the good situation", more and more new cars can be put on the market, and with the changes of the times, independent brand high-end MPV will gradually enter our vision. The above three cars can be said to be an appetizer, I am very much looking forward to the market performance of the three of them, but also hope that more companies will join the competition in this market and bring us more and better new car products.
