[Aika Cars Weekly Car News Original]
Good weekend, this week, there are several news for performance car enthusiasts is definitely a blessing: following the GR 86, TYPE R is determined to be introduced within the year, after the introduction of Elantra N, this week there is news that GR YARiS and Abarth 595/695 will be introduced into the country; and friends who value practicality do not have to worry, "Daddy Flagship" - the latest news of the ideal L9 will also be presented to you.
Landed 500,000? GAZOO fans, it's up to you
GR YARiS, which has also set off a wave of small craze on the Internet, is sure to be introduced into The Country! According to the current information, the car will be announced at the end of the year, and will be delivered to domestic buyers in 2023, and the emission is still China VIB, which means that rich and affectionate fans across the country can start.
Hey, why withdraw money? Because this A0-class steel cannon is likely to land on the ground is likely to cost about 500,000 yuan! You are not too expensive, not discounted, not to mention the discount, before watching a video site of an overseas up owner, in the United Kingdom have spent a lot of effort to grab a GR YARiS order. And the local GR YARiS used cars in the UK have risen to about 37,000 pounds (about 305,000 yuan) higher than the starting price of the new car. Toyota Shenche has also raised prices overseas. Therefore, for the fans who really plan to start this steel cannon, preparing "grain and grass" as soon as possible is the right way.
What a rare scorpion!
Compared with the GR YARiS above, the following news of the introduction of domestic is more surprising. Who would have thought that Fiat, which has been quiet in China, would have the leisure to introduce the "little steel cannon" of its own performance brand Abarth, Abarth 595/695, to China? It's really Italian, and it doesn't play cards at all. However, this kind of bizarre operation can make the relatively flat and single domestic automobile market add a lot.
Whether it can win the applause of the Chinese market depends on how Fiat publicizes it. Know that Abarth is far more niche than Alpha Romeo. I was worried that Abarth would end up with a "quiet coming, quiet walking" ending.
Bold interior design I loved it!
This week, Ideal Released official drawings of the interior of the flagship L9, most surprisingly the car's instrumentation was completely eliminated and replaced by a HUD and an interactive screen integrated into the steering wheel. It is worth discussing whether this small screen integrated into the steering wheel will rotate with the steering wheel turning? Judging from the current pictures, it should be able to turn, rather than like the design of citroën - "centrally controlled steering wheel", but can such a rotating screen still play a role in providing information for the driver at any time?
In any case, such a bold design is rare even in the new power models, and it remains to be seen whether the instrument is completely replaced by HUD and accepted by consumers.
The "rebellious" heir to the Volkswagen T series
This week ID. The official release of BUZZ has also attracted a wave of traffic at home and abroad, although it is not known whether the pure electric drive can make the former Volkswagen CEO Heinz Nordhoff, who has been dead for more than fifty years (Heinz Nordhoff, who ordered the development of T1 according to the drawings of Dutch businessman Ben Pon) to admit that it is the successor of the T series, but its cute and fashionable retro appearance is really hard not to love.
The official picture released this time is only a five-seat MPV version and a Cargo version, and the six-seat long-axle model with a high degree of spatial freedom in the concept car stage has not been released this time, which is really a pity, and it has to wait.
Mazda – Retrograde of the Times?
Mazda is really a different manufacturer, "ancestral" rotor technology has always refused to discard has been brought to the electric era (MX-30 PHEV) for the time being, in the current situation that everyone is thinking about how to transform to electrification, actually "drumming" out two inline 6-cylinder engines out. On going against the trend, Mazda recognizes the second, I am afraid that no one dares to claim the first position.
Finally there is another car product - Lincoln Z on the market
Following the suspension of production in MKZ and mainland China, Lincoln relied on a variety of SUV products to conquer the domestic automobile market, with remarkable achievements, but it was not wise to think of danger in times of peace and bet on SUV models. Therefore, the listing of Lincoln Z is opportune, the starting price of 252,800 in a number of second-tier luxury brand statistics products can also be regarded as quite cost-effective, coupled with the "dual model" design, stunning through-screen and has always been praised service system, Lincoln Z market prospects can be expected.
Conclusion: This week we were expecting more explosive news exposure - there was gossip before that the new domestic X5 would be released this weekend, and the result was just a oolong. But even so, the successive news of the performance car entering China, the step-by-step unveiling of the L9 and the listing of luxury mid-size sedan power spoilers such as the Lincoln Z have also made the past week's car industry reminiscent.
