The word "shooting brake" is actually the European name for a three-door station wagon or an elongated hatchback, and the word was originally used specifically to refer to hunting carriages, Chinese translated as "hunting carts". Most of these models are double-door, between coupes and station wagons, which not only maintain the shape and performance of two-door coupes, but also have certain requirements for luggage space.
The "model" model in the hunting car! Ferrari FF!
Ferrari FF is the first hunting model officially entered China for sale, with a unique body shape and rich historical connotations that have quickly become a new favorite on the market. At the time, it was Ferrari's most powerful and versatile four-seater sports car and the first four-wheel-drive sports car in Ferrari's history. FF is a standard "shooting brake", the design of two doors and four seats, coupled with the rounded tail design, is unique in the domestic automobile market at that time. Even if there is no opportunity for car owners to hunt in today's society, the unique design of FF and the unprecedented practicality in Ferrari still make this "model hunting car" have good sales in China!
In addition to FF, it has to be mentioned that Ferrari's other hunting model - Ferrari gtc4lusso, as an alternative to Ferrari FF, the new car not only has an improvement in styling design, but also upgrades in terms of configuration and power. But in essence, it is still a standard hunting model.
Redefining hunting trucks? Mercedes-Benz CLS Hunting Edition!
Pure two-door "shooting brake" is actually not common in China, more is based on a four-door coupe to create a hunting version of the model, CLS hunting is a very typical example. The CLS's already 2874mm long wheelbase, coupled with this plump sneakback, makes the visual effect of the whole car look more slender. This hunting version of the model not only has good practicality, thanks to the design of the bezel-less doors, it also gives people a sense of calm and elegance.
Whether the four-door model can be called "shooting brake" has its own opinion in the minds of many fans. Some people insist that only double doors are orthodox hunting suits, while others believe that the hunting suits derived from four-door coupe models can also be regarded as hunting suits. In fact, at present, the "hunting version" sold by major automobile manufacturers in China is basically a model based on a four-door coupe, does that represent an attitude of car companies? There are a thousand Hamlets in the hearts of a thousand readers, and the editor believes that there is no absolute right or wrong until there is no absolute standard. That being the case, let's take a look at some of the hunting vehicles on sale launched by the official manufacturers!
The lowest threshold hunting truck on the market! Volkswagen New CC Hunting Edition!
Once the most beautiful Volkswagen, it has been controversial after the new generation, and the hunting version is even more so. Many people think that there is nothing "new" about the new CC, and the overall change is not large. And this new CC hunting car, which is considered by many to be an ordinary station wagon or even a crossover, its performance is not strong, and the tail line is a little too straight. The anti-scratch strips and wheel arches of different colors on the side of the car are very similar to the general crossover.
But it is undeniable that Volkswagen officially refers to it as "shooting brake", and the new CC is also a coupe. The elements of the sneak back and the frameless doors are a lot, and the hunting car should have something it seems to have. Perhaps this is volkswagen's strategy, there is controversy naturally there is heat, since the release, the popularity of this new CC hunting suit has been high, relatively low price, making it the current domestic sale of almost the lowest threshold of hunting models.
The hunting car still has to have a sense of luxury! See how mercedes-benz CLA Shooting Brake is doing?
Hunting used to be a high-end entertainment that only the nobility could enjoy, and the hunting car naturally had to be luxurious. Although Volkswagen is more "advanced", it is not a luxury brand after all, and this CLA Shooting Brake has no such troubles. Although its positioning is still a relatively beginner hunting car, but with Mercedes-Benz behind its endorsement, in terms of luxury, naturally there will be no mistakes. The CLA Shooting Brake currently on sale is close to 4.7 meters long and has a wheelbase of 2729mm, and there is not much to be picky about in terms of space performance. It is only a low-end model with a 1.3T engine, although the power performance is not bad, but the basic displacement is still a bit on the table.
Entering the interior, the luxury of mercedes-Benz is fully revealed. Cla's interior adopts the mainstream Dalian screen design of Mercedes-Benz in recent years, although it is not the latest design language, but it is a safe choice. This interior has been affirmed by consumers on the higher-level models of Mercedes-Benz, whether it is a sense of technology or luxury, it is vividly reflected in this interior. In addition, the 64-color ambient lights allow this car to change various effects at night, forcing the grid to be directly pulled full, and buying a hunting car is not to take the model? What most people want, CLA Shooting Brake can give.
Who says there are no hunting trucks in China? Krypton 001 turned out!
Yes, that's right, the most recently popular player, Krypton 001, is also a hunting car. On the official website of Extreme Kr, "Luxury Hunting Coupe" is a key description of this car. At the moment of the rapid development of electric vehicles, it is not surprising that electric hunting vehicles have emerged. As a high-end brand, Extreme Kr designed the first car into a hunting model, which played a vital role in improving the overall brand tone, and only luxurious and stylish car companies will launch hunting models, and Extreme Kr is one of them. The Krypton 001 has a variety of power level configurations to choose from, the comprehensive endurance range from 526km to 712km, the high-performance version of the 0-100km/h acceleration time is even only 3.8s, which is a model weighing more than two tons. Such performance makes it very close to the traditional sense of "shooting brake".
Entering the car of Extreme Kr 001, a large number of leather packages have made the overall interior texture well guaranteed, and the large screen of the central control has also created a good scientific and technological atmosphere. More importantly, in terms of intelligent driving control, Extreme Kr can be said to have achieved the ultimate, even the door opening and closing, do not require manual intervention. Unfortunately, due to the fact that the technology is not yet perfect, many of the functions above 001 are still immature, and the user experience needs to be improved, and I believe that the late OTA can solve the problem of insensitive automatic door induction.
Even if it's not a two-door design, no one can say no to Panamera Sport Turismo!
Turismo in Panamera Sport Turismo means travel, so shouldn't this car be a station wagon? But you should know that in the introduction of Porsche, the positioning of the Panamera is a sports car, built on the basis of a sports car, and it should be a hunting car, so many people will identify this car as a hunting car, and the editor also thinks so. Of the models on sale, the Panamera4SSport Turismo, the fastest 100 km/h, has an acceleration time of 4.3s, a pure-fuel version of the two-ton model, is this not a strong performance? In fact, there was a GTS model before, which was 0.2s faster than it, but unfortunately, the GTS model has been discontinued. But that doesn't stop Panamera Sport Turismo from achieving performance, and such a strong drive combined with Porsche's handling will definitely not disappoint.
In terms of interiors, Porsche, as a traditional luxury brand, has always had excellent performance. The sporty cockpit makes people have a strong desire to drive as soon as they sit in the car. And if you choose Alcantara or even a carbon fiber steering wheel material, the feel of the steering is even more wonderful, and people can't help but want to overcome every corner. As Porsche describes it, the Panamera is a sports car for four people that combines excellent sportiness with outstanding comfort. And based on the evolution of such a model of the hunting version, which person who likes hunting cars can refuse?
There has always been a debate in China about the classification between hunting trucks and station wagons, and many people have classified "hunting trucks" into the category of station wagons, but although the two are indeed similar in a broad sense, they are not the same if they are subdivided. Most of the station wagons are built on ordinary family cars, the tail shape is relatively straight to ensure that the body is spacious and the interior space is abundant, the representative model is A6 Avant; and the hunting car is usually based on high-performance coupes, trying to maintain the high performance of coupes, the tail has a clear slipback shape, while maintaining good practicality while the shape is more unique, the template model is Ferrari FF. Versailles, which has always been very hot, the editor thinks it is a crossover.
Automotive Network Review: Hunting cars and station wagons are both practical, but they do differ.
Although there is no absolute standard to define the hunting car, through some comparisons, we can still find that the hunting car is different from the station wagon. Most of the hunting cars are based on sports cars or coupes, the performance is more powerful at the same time, the positioning will be more high-end, the tail shape will also be biased towards the back, more unique than the station wagon; and the station wagon is generally based on ordinary cars, more attention to practicality, the price is relatively not too high. Some people will think that it must be double-door to be called "shooting brake"; some people think that the back is the hunting car; some people think that the hunting car must have a borderless door; and some people think that nothing matters.
