For a long time in the past, large and medium-sized SUVs of luxury brands entered the domestic market as imports. The image of million-level luxury cars is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, in this level of models, whether it is a first-line luxury brand or a second-tier luxury brand, the first impression brought to people can be summarized in one word, that is, "expensive"!
Nowadays, medium and large luxury SUVs are becoming a hot competitive outlet, these models brought by Jianghujun today have been domestically produced, the price is no longer so out of reach, and the configuration has been increased for Chinese consumer preferences, and it is really not as good as the domestic incense series!
BMW Brilliance X5
Guidance price: 60.50-77.50 million
Since the news of BMW X5 domestic production was broken, it has become a hot topic of discussion among netizens, until last week, BMW Brilliance X5 was officially listed, and the price was still a hot topic of discussion. Referring to the previous price range of 69.99-83.99 million yuan for the imported BMW X5, the new domestic X5 has lengthened the wheelbase by a full 130mm while reducing the price, and has made a series of upgrades to the configuration of the domestic X5 according to the preferences of Chinese users.
High-gloss chrome decoration, immersive light-sensitive ambient lights, large-size wireless charging pads, diamond-shaped stitched double-colored seats, etc., reflect BMW's attitude of valuing the Chinese market.
In terms of appearance, there is no obvious distinction from imported models, and it can only be judged from the L-shaped air intakes at both ends of the bumper that this is a domestic extended version of the model. The length, width and height of the domestic X5 are 5060/2004/1779mm, and the wheelbase is extended to 3105mm, matching the BMW X7.
Available in two power configurations, the 2.0T version has a maximum horsepower of 245 hp, a peak torque of 400 Nm and an acceleration time of 7.3 seconds from zero to 100 km/h, and a 3.0T inline six-cylinder engine version with a maximum horsepower of 333 hp and a peak torque of 450 Nm and an acceleration time of 6.0 seconds from zero to 100 km/h. Both powertrains are matched with the familiar ZF 8AT transmission and the xDrive time-time all-wheel drive system.
Changan Lincoln Aviator
Guidance price: 50.98-75.98 million
The aviator still adheres to Lincoln's own luxury concept, and the strong American luxury atmosphere comes to the face, and the Advantage of lincoln aviators at this time is very obvious even compared with a number of first-line luxury brand competitors.
The Lincoln Aviators are 5080/2022/1759mm in length, width and height, and the wheelbase is 3025mm. Although there is a larger full-size SUV Lincoln Navigator on the top, the aviator's aura is enough to overwhelm most competitors.
The entire interior design of the aviator is full of retro luxury design, lincoln is also a century-old luxury brand after all, this heritage is not learned by outsiders.
In terms of power, the Lincoln Aviator is equipped with a 3.0T V6 turbo engine, with a maximum power of 355 horsepower, a peak torque of 553N·m, and a 10AT gearbox, which can be described as full of sincerity. Compared with the newly listed domestic BMW X5, the advantages of domestic aviators are stronger powertrains and flexible 7-seat layout, and the price is relatively more affordable.
Dongfeng Infiniti QX60
Guidance price: 39.98-61.98 million
In the field of luxury brands in large and medium-sized SUVs, infiniti QX60 is an alternative existence. Despite the current troubles within the Renault-Nissan Alliance, the Infiniti QX60 has also been completely replaced. It can be said that this is the only blockbuster product that the Infiniti brand can currently get its hands on.
The appearance of the Infiniti QX60 is very worth savoring, and the gentle and elegant oriental luxury temperament makes the style of this car jump out of the mainstream aesthetic direction and turn to a higher design aesthetic. The starting price of 399,800 seems to have lowered the size of luxury brands.
Infiniti QX60 has a wheelbase of 2900mm in length, width and height of 5127/2005/1767mm. In terms of size, the Infiniti QX60 surpasses the long-axis BMW X5 and the Lincoln Aviator, but the visual experience is not large.
In the interior workmanship and luxury creation, after many years of replacement of the Infiniti QX60 finally caught up with the mainstream level, but from some angles it still looks like some of the shadow of the new Qijun can be found. Fortunately, there is a "sofa factory" title, soft seats with semi-aniline leather, riding comfort is still superior!
For the first time, the Infiniti QX60 is equipped with a 2.0T+9AT powertrain, a 2.0T VC-Turbo variable compression ratio engine, a maximum power of 252 horsepower, and a maximum torque of 376 N·m. The drivetrain was replaced from the CVT to the ZF 9AT, and the driving texture was significantly improved, but driving this big guy still needed to cooperate with the American driving habits of the big foot throttle.
Compared with the 450,000 at the time of its release, the current Infiniti QX60 will continue to drop the price to 39.98, almost touching the price range of medium and large SUVs of ordinary brands.
4. SAIC Audi Q6
Coming soon
The Q6 is the second model released by SAIC Audi since the A7L, and in view of the A7L's once upset, the Q6 has taken on the responsibility of turning the tide of the war. Lengthening and enlarging is Audi's killer skill, and the arrival of the Audi Q6 has once again refreshed the size record of Audi SUV.
The length, width and height of the Q6 are 5099/2014/1784mm, respectively. The body size has surpassed the Audi Q7 and the just-launched domestic BMW X5, and given the MQB Evo's lateral platform, the wheelbase of the Audi Q6 may be slightly inferior. According to previous news, SAIC Audi Q6 will provide a three-row 7-seat layout plan and provide a more luxurious 6-seat version, which greatly improves the practicality.
In terms of power, saicidair Audi Q6 will be equipped with low-power and high-power versions of the fourth-generation EA888 2.0T engine. High-end models are expected to provide a six-cylinder engine, and the power parameters of this engine have not yet been exposed, and Jianghujun recommends referring to the FAW-Volkswagen six-cylinder version of the model.
Positioned between Q5L and Q7, SAIC Audi Q6 will be officially launched in the second half of 2022, and the price is expected to be around 550,000.
The arrival of domestic X5 is actually not a devastating disaster for second-tier luxury brands, and in the new round of competition for luxury brands in large SUVs, we can still see the huge potential emitted by second-tier luxury brands.
