Once upon a time, all kinds of goods used Highlander as the benchmark for intermediate SUVs, but now, how many can be surpassed? It's just an "imaginary enemy" in marketing. Prior to this, there is news that Weilai's new ES7 will directly benchmark BMW Brilliance X5, not to mention whether there is comparability, at least the brand attributes and value are not the same, as soon as things come out, netizens are also various disagreements.
In addition, recently, according to our latest understanding, there is another BMW X5 to benchmark, yes, it is SAIC Audi's new Q6. At present, the new car has been declared by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People's Republic of China, according to the plan, the new car or will be released within the year, and the price is about 550,000 yuan.
As SAIC Audi's third production model, the new car is positioned as a medium-sized SUV and competes misalignedly with FAW-Volkswagen Audi. From the perspective of modeling, Audi Q6 will provide a double front face, corresponding to the executive version and the sports version, the details of the two will be different, but they are equipped with the current popular through-line light strip, which is also a new design of domestic Audi.
In simple terms, the executive version is more of a chrome decoration to highlight the sense of luxury, while the sports version uses a large number of blackened designs, in addition, in response, the taillights are also through-line design. In terms of size, the wheelbase of 2980mm is only 16mm different from the Q7.
It is said that the design of the exterior is inspired by the sacred beast of Chinese mythology and legend, the unicorn.
As for the power, according to the declaration information, the new car will be equipped with the fourth generation EA888 2.0T engine, all of which are imported from the original, and provide two different power adjustments, with a maximum output of 265 horsepower and 231 horsepower, respectively. At the same time, SAIC Audi may introduce a six-cylinder version with a larger displacement in the future.
Frankly speaking, from the data point of view, Audi Q6 and BMW X5 are a fight, and they are both domestic SUV models, at least compared to the Weilai ES7 brand and strength. And when I first saw the Audi Q6, I understood that in fact, in my bones, it was just the Volkswagen Tuon changing the label and changing the shell.
Written in the end: In the BBA first-line luxury brands, Audi is often in the ascendant, SAIC Audi is no exception, if the future and BMW X5 competition market, first of all, you have to lower your body, price for volume, in order to get market recognition, what do you think?
