Due to the high positioning of the products created by the Hongqi brand in the early years, coupled with the relatively old design, it does appear to have some lofty taste. This established impression also directly led to the fact that Hongqi's products rarely appeared on the road earlier. Fortunately, realizing that the essence of car companies is to sell cars, Hongqi launched the H5 B-class sedan with a young design and a truly people-friendly price in 2018, which finally put it on the right track at the sales level. Nowadays, even if Hongqi does not need to give too much proof in the field of domestic luxury, it is not ambiguous about the replacement process of H5. Thanks to the new generation of Hongqi H5 has been officially declared on the website of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology not long ago
The front face of the new generation of Hongqi H5 continues the style of H9, which is also the new family design language of Hongqi brand in recent years, with an almost vertical front shape, with 13 vertical chrome grilles, quite a sense of chinese tradition. In addition, the cover of the vehicle also has a rearward extension of the decoration, which is also the classic design of the Hongqi brand. Not only that, the new H5 also adopts a split light group design, the two sides of the middle net are slender daytime running lights, and the far and near lights are arranged on both sides of the surrounding interior, the overall look is still very harmonious.
The interior of the official has not been announced for the time being, but there are also interior spy photos exposed before, the overall design layout and H9 is not the same, from the spy photo point of view, its car is equipped with a suspension of the full LCD dashboard, vertical central control screen and three-spoke multi-functional steering wheel, with an electronic barrier, the sense of science and technology is also improved a lot. The interior is colored with dark gray and red, and is decorated with chrome trims and stitching in many places, creating a good sense of class and luxury.
The side lines of the new car are very simple, in addition to a waist line extending from the front cover to the rear of the car, the doors also have a curved design, and the visual appearance is not monotonous. Through the vehicle's longer front suspension and the shorter distance between the front wheels and the firewall, it can also be seen that the new generation H5 will still use a transverse front-drive platform instead of the rear-drive platform of the H7 and H9. This is actually quite reasonable for an entry-level midsize sedan.
The rear of the new car also adopts the same through taillights as the Hongqi H9, and extends the design with folded lines to both sides, and there is also a horizontal chrome trim in the middle, which is matched with the bottom bilateral chrome exhaust, which not only ensures the recognition, but also brings a good luxurious texture.
In terms of power, the new Hongqi H5 will be equipped. The new car will officially cancel the traditional 1.8T engine, and replace it with a 2.0T self-developed engine. Matched with this is the 8AT hand-integrated gearbox. It is reported that two versions of diesel and hybrid will be launched in the future! But in terms of price, it may be higher than the current model, and the price is expected to be about 30,000-70,000 higher! Of course, in the end, it is still subject to the listing!
