Now FAW Hongqi can be described as a day in the sky, not only has a good performance in the domestic market, but also has a competitiveness in overseas markets! And there is such a achievement, I have to mention a car is the Hongqi H5, this car can be said to be a series of "groundbreaking", so in the later development, such as the birth of the H9 such as the L series, let netizens gradually forget this classic model! But in fact, FAW Hongqi is planning a big change! That is, the ultimate version of the "Hongqi H5" pictured below, this car is a change in the classic product, and it has also played a vital role for FAW Hongqi.
The new car appeared in our field of vision without warning, and indeed brought more surprises to netizens. From the design style of the whole car, it is quite similar to the design of the Hongqi H9, but it is obviously smaller than the H9 in size, and it is precisely because of this change that the shortcomings of the previous H9 have become advantages. The straight waterfall grille is still full of power, including the adjustment of the internal grille has become more rugged, less business, more sporty! The grille on both sides also adopts a thick line design, which is surrounded by a folded line below, which is the effect of some Japanese modified cars! The design of the headlights is more complex, and for the first time a double-layer LED light source is used, but it is not clear whether the grille can be lit as well as the H9.
The entire size of the new car is a perfect evolution, the length, width and height are 5050mm, 1915mm, 1570mm, the wheelbase has reached 2920mm, the whole size compared to the old H5 that the improvement is not a star and a half. It is also a win-lose situation with the high-end model H7. On the entire side, equipped with a blade-style waist line, and the entire taillights are perfectly connected, the rear of the car also continues the family design, equipped with a through-line light group, the shape is similar to the Pentium B70 as a "human" glyph, so in appearance, the new H5 has a heritage and continuation. It is a model with a strong sense of compatibility.
And into the interior, you really read it correctly, the interior of the new H5 and the layout of the new Mercedes-Benz S are too similar, and the two super-sized screens equipped with it are an interpretation of the sense of technology! Of course, there are still obvious differences between the two cars in the details, which is beyond doubt. And it can be seen that the design of the new Hongqi H5 is more angular than that of the Mercedes-Benz S, and the position of the air conditioner blower is simplified. It can only be said that there are advantages for each other!
In terms of power, the new generation of Hongqi H5 will provide two engines, 1.5T and 2.0T, of which the power parameters of the 1.5T version have been lowered from the current model, while the maximum power of the 2.0T version is 165kW and the maximum torque is 340N·m. The drivetrain is matched with an 8AT gearbox, and the power performance is stronger than the current model. The new car will be officially announced at the Beijing Auto Show in April this year, and the starting price of the new car is expected to be around 180,000.
