After waiting for a full month, the domestic long wheelbase X5 finally "bid":
60.50-77.50 million yuan
Correct reading: "New Nose Amuda Not Slippery Ax V"
Obviously, the new X5 has been lengthened by a full 13 centimeters, but the tail tag is "no L", which has the feeling of "I am long, I know the whole world knows that I am long, but I pretend not to know".
Probably, this is to make the mood of the owner of the standard axle version more stable - after all, the "air suspension" of the imported top version of X5 was also selected, and it was not reduced after domestic production.
At present, it seems that the new X5 has won the hemp: high configuration, large space, good comfort, and the rare "length without price increase" among real luxury brands, with a starting price of 100,000 yuan less than the imported version.
Of course, "defeat is also longer", and the owner of the standard shaft version should also be confident:
The "heavier body" after the extension will affect the acceleration and handling pleasure
The long wheelbase will also weaken the X5's original "BMW's strongest off-road capability"
Apart from these two points, the new BMW X5 has few drawbacks.
The Pentagon Warrior was lengthened, still the Pentagon Warrior
The wheelbase of 3105mm is a big "killer" for new cars, and this number is magically "exactly the same as that of big brother X7", without even giving a centimeter of face.
There is no 6/7 seat, which is the last tenderness of the new X5 to the big brother.
It also successfully ended the "legend of the BMW SAV" in the jianghu: the largest rear leg space in the family, arranged for the smallest X1.
The 13 centimeters that increased overnight were all disposed of in the back row.
The good news is that the rear seats are more spacious and the backrest angle is more oblique (increased to 31 degrees); the better news is that the front and rear rows are equal, and they are all "China-exclusive comfort seats".
After the extension, the X5 also exceeded the 5-meter mark (5060/2004/1779mm), the side profile is more slender, and the overall proportion is still symmetrical.
In addition to the side and tail markings, the styling changes of the new car are actually not large.
It's still the M-style sports kit, with the newly designed "inverted L-shaped" air intakes + 22-inch alloy wheels, which is classic, but there is no more freshness.
After all, the design of this generation of X5 is already amazing enough; after all, this generation of X5 mid-term overhaul "will not be released until next year", this wave of domestic production has not caught up is also normal.
As the ceiling of the joint venture model, the configuration of the new X5 will not be low.
There are X-type intelligent laser headlights that constitute "angel eyes", and there are also imported versions of the adaptive dual-axis air suspension + VDC electronic shock absorption system that can only be selected for "top fitting and can only be installed".
Although the interior does not use the latest i-Drive 8 system + narrow bezel dual screen, but the dual 12.3-inch display, three-frame steering wheel and crystal three-piece set are still very attractive.
The HARMAN Karton sound system, which is standard, can also be valued for the ticket price.
Of course, the smart sensor atmosphere light and the skylight are still there.
Of course, in terms of price, you can't ask for it with "parallel import X5 configuration level" - electric suction doors, chassis lifting, hot and cold cup holders, interior heating packages, rear sun blinds... These configurations are technically not a problem, the problem is the cost.
The powertrain of the new car remains "in place": the 30Li is a 2.0T four-cylinder engine (B48B20G), produced by BMW Brilliance, while the 40Li 3.0T six-cylinder engine (B58B30C) is produced by BMW AG, that is, supplied by import.
Although the figure of 245Ps/333Ps has been slightly lowered, it is also more conducive to "fuel saving". In particular, the latter has added 48V micro-mixing, and fuel consumption will be further reduced.
Interestingly, the domestic X5 actually did not affect the rice bowl of the imported X5.
Since the official sale of imported versions will be stopped after domestic production, the current source of cars in various stores is the last batch of cars - previously in some regions, imported versions even need to be increased in price.
The real worry about "being robbed of jobs by the new X5" is a friendly businessman.
High emotional intelligence: beaten up; low emotional intelligence: ten
Some people say that the new X5 is "dimensionality reduction strike for sales", which not only makes the first-line Mercedes-Benz Audi look at it and wants to hit people, but also makes a large wave of second-tier luxury brands cry on the spot.
In a way, the Porsche Macan sighed when he saw it.
Even, it's not spared along with the door brothers, the 5 Series/X7.
Its ambition is not just for everyone here in the "luxury brand SUV market", but for the same price point: no need to single-handedly, count one, please come and beat.
In this field, BMW calculates that "if you come, you can't beat me anyway."
For the Mercedes-Benz GLE and Audi Q7, which have been imported, they are the main enemies of the new car in China, and they are also the old rivals of the X5 car series in the international market - at this time, the advantage of the new X5 is "I have a longer wheelbase that you do not have", as well as the exemption of customs clearance taxes and logistics costs.
Infiniti, Cadillac and Lincoln, which have been domestically produced, although the starting price of the same class of cars is much lower than that of the imported X5, but in the face of the BMW standard of the domestic X5 and the "increase in the amount without price", their original plan to use the high-end model "Tianji Horse Racing" has failed.
The Volvo XC90, which has been rumored to be domestic but has not been domestically produced, has "exploded", one is that the discount of up to 100,000 is not enough to make up for the generation gap of "the technology platform is old", and the second is that the price of the discount has no advantage over the new X5.
Finally, the Lexus RX, which "never intended to be domestically produced", the high-end "extended L version" is only an ass extension (the wheelbase remains unchanged), and the price starting from 680,000 can already announce "early withdrawal from the battle".
Thanks to the support of peers, you can better appreciate the good of the new X5 after comparison.
After all, BMW, as the only luxury brand in China that "dares to sell domestic models more expensive than imports", is confident that it comes from BMW Brilliance's high-standard factory.
After all, BMW China has a 75% stake in BMW Brilliance, rounded to a "wholly owned factory", and high-end products such as the new X5 are the best proof.
Times have changed, and the Chinese mark that you deliberately cut off before may go to the hands of foreign Bimmer in the blink of an eye, and then the yin and yang are mistakenly pasted on the X6 that is not domestic.
In addition, the extended X5 has an independent code name "G18" (the standard shaft is G05) for the first time, and it is possible that the "domestic re-export" will become a global model after the hot sale.
Finally, don't blame me for not reminding me – BMW Brilliance's Shenyang Dadong plant, which produces the new X5, "previously stopped production due to the epidemic" and has not yet officially resumed:
The car source is tense, and the start should be fast
