Buick rebranding - what is the flat design?
Although it can be understood that the flat design of the logo is more beneficial to the brand to convey the core message, at least the aesthetic can not be lost, right? Following Volkswagen, BMW, Kia, Peugeot and other manufacturers, Buick has also joined the camp of replacing the flat new logo, but the shape of the new logo is a little different from the previous one, and it is even difficult to recognize the shield. Asked the friends around me, some said like nail clippers, some said like a USB stick, and some said like an electric fader for shaving the head... Of course, if the new logo is used in pure electric models, it can shine like the Volkswagen I.D series, and maybe the effect is not bad.
Monopoly on social fear - Mercedes-Benz door handle display patent
This week, foreign media exposed a new patent of Mercedes-Benz - installing a digital display on the door handle, which can display the weather, incoming call information, pictures in the mobile phone, and can also greet the owner according to preset content when approaching. Isn't this feature a bit too social Cow X? Moreover, it is not safe to expose your own relevant information at will.
Maserati Grecale released - "Poseidon" upper body!
As predicted before, the Grecale really equipped the high-end Model Trefeo with a Poseidon engine on the MC20, which shows how much Maserati attaches importance to this model. Whether it is the design of the new car inside and out, the configuration and power, compared to the competitor Macan (it is time to usher in a replacement) also has a certain advantage. Now for Gregare, there may be only a relatively reasonable and less fluttery pricing.
The price of new energy vehicles has increased - there is no way to stop
This week, a number of brands announced that they will adjust the price of their new energy models: first the veteran manufacturer SAIC-GM-Wuling announced the price increase of a number of its pure electric vehicles, including the hot-selling Hongguang MINIEV, and then one of the representatives of the new forces, Ideal Automobile, announced an increase in the price of its products, zero run, Skyworth also followed up, and Lantu's attitude was ambiguous, and Tianji canceled the promotional preferential policies... Coupled with the manufacturers who announced price adjustments last week, this wave of "price increases" has been roughly calculated by more than a dozen manufacturers. If the soaring prices of raw materials and the shortage of chips cannot be significantly alleviated in the short term, it is believed that more automakers will join the price increase team.
The mass production version of the ET7 comes offline – delivery is imminent
From the announcement of the new car plan in 2018, to the release of the ET preview version of the Shanghai Auto Show in 2019, to the body-in-white roll-off, the verification of the prototype off the line, the pre-mass production version of the off-line... It can be said that the whole process of ET7's vehicle development and manufacturing has been tracked and reported by the media, and the heat flow is not high. Now that four years have passed, the media and users are full of expectations to reach a climax at the moment of THE 28th of this month when the ET7 is delivered, and it is quite expected to think about it.
Boom! The listing date of the domestic BMW X5 has been set
Compared with Weilai ET7, the attention of the domestic long-axis version of X5 is definitely more than that. Over the years to import the introduction of domestic BMW X5, with excellent driving performance and enough to match the luxury quality of the body value, in the luxury of large and medium-sized SUV segments can achieve quite eye-catching sales results, and now the domestic rear wheelbase has been lengthened by as much as 130mm, in the ride comfort has been further optimized and improved, it is no wonder that it will be widely favored. Fortunately, you don't need to wait too long, and the domestic X5 will be officially listed on the 31st of this month. I believe that as long as the price is reasonable, it is bound to be a popular model that is both applauded and seated.
Conclusion: With the latest market changes, corporate dynamics and new car information, this week's car scene can be described as exciting, and next week is also worth looking forward to. It is known that there will be a number of blockbuster new cars on the market next week, including Jiangling Ford Lingrui, Zhiji's first production car L7, domestic X5, and Lotus's first SUV , TYPE 132, will also be officially unveiled next week, in addition to the self-touring NV will also announce the pre-sale price next week...
