Buying the new, not buying the old, can be described as the most reasonable saying in the consumer world, especially in the mobile phone industry (although it has now become a toothpaste update). For automobile consumption, it is actually "early buy early enjoyment, late buy enjoy discount", now many models that have been listed for a long time have a lot of discounts, but there are also new problems - these models have been on the market for a long time, when will it be replaced, and how will it be after the replacement?
So today we will take stock of these models that have been listed for a long time and may be replaced, after all... No one wants to buy a new car for 1-2 years and become an "old car".
Also for everyone to solve the most important problems, should we do and so on?
As Honda's cash cow, Accord's updates are very frequent, and there is no need to explain it with the last three generations of models, because it has maintained a replacement cycle of less than 5 years since its birth in 1976, so in these 46 years, it has evolved to the tenth generation of models. And it was released in 2018, if it is based on this frequency, it is likely to release a new replacement model next year.
But what is quite amazing is that there is no spy information about the new model overseas, and the progress seems to be quite slow. Referring to the recent Honda new car, the new Accord is expected to continue the 2.0L hybrid system, but it is expected to make small improvements, such as improving the thermal efficiency of the engine and the maximum power of the electric motor, which will further reduce fuel consumption.
In addition, according to the honda system's "singular generation equilibrium, bi-numbered generation radical reform" non-written convention, the eleventh generation model may take the same home route as the new Civic.
Looking back at the domestic current model, it has carried out a mid-term redesign at the end of 2021, made small improvements to the car machine, exterior interior, and also added a phantom night version with a sports kit, which is now about 10,000 discounts. Considering that domestic production still needs about 2 years, so wait for the party, if the cash Accord has a greater discount in the future, then there is no need to wait anymore!
The two domestic Volkswagen mid-size cars correspond to the overseas Passat, but they are the appearance of the European version and the appearance of the American version. Now this MQB version (the eighth generation) model is released overseas in 2019, so we don't think it can be replaced in the near future, after all, according to this frequency, this is 2025.
However, according to the suspension of production overseas, this can be said to be "no successor car" in foreign countries, and it is expected to be replaced by the new electric vehicle of Aero B. Therefore, the future Passat model does not exist, and the domestic model is expected to be "China's special supply, China's research and development".

Replaced by the updated MQB EVO platform, the electronic gear + new car machine will also be added; and now that Mondeo has been lengthened to the level of 2945mm, the public who understands Chinese will surely further lengthen the wheelbase of the new Maiten/Passat.
The domestic Passat made a mid-term redesign last year, making relatively large changes to the appearance and adding a sporty version of the "Starry Sky Face" model, which is more youthful. Nowadays, in the absence of core, its discount has reached 10,000, referring to the previous level, this range is not large, so to buy advice or when waiting for the party, but we are not waiting for a new generation of models.
Unlike Honda's "intermittent squeezing toothpaste", the Toyota Camry has changed greatly with each generation, and the two generations together do not even feel that this is the same car series. Today's Camry was released in 2017, according to the frequency of 5-year generation, the new Camry is also expected to be released next year, once again competing with the Accord, the two can be described as old enemies.
The new generation of models has not yet been exposed, so we can only guess the approximate situation of the new car. The 2.5L hybrid system is in its prime, so it is highly likely to be retained, but it is expected to be replaced by a higher power motor, just like the domestic Highlander hybrid system to improve power performance.
In terms of space, this is still the TNGA platform and does not compete with the Asian Dragon, so it is expected that the overall situation will not change much from the cash model, and this time it may be forced to squeeze toothpaste.
Nowadays, the current domestic models have also undergone a revision, mainly replaced by a floating central control screen, which enhances the sense of fashion. As for the range of less than 8,000, it is also the norm, Camry belongs to the perennial price stability player, want to wait for it to have a big discount? Or forget it, after all, it is also a value preservation artifact, and the cash is not lost!
For Nissan Qashqai, it is not practical for us to talk about when to change generations, because this new Qashqai has been released and marketed in foreign countries for almost a year... However, there is still no replacement in China.
The new Qashqai, using the design language on The X-Trail, the overall bias is tough, the interior has become more refined, keeping up with the trend of the times; the biggest change is two, one is to replace the 1.3T engine developed with Daimler, that is, the engine on the Mercedes-Benz GLA/GLB, and there is a set of e-Power hybrid options; the second is that the wheelbase is lengthened by 20mm, which is more competitive.
Domestically, Nissan has decided to introduce models such as the Ariya, although it has not brought in the Qashqai, but it seems that it will also be released within the year. The new models now maintain monthly sales of 10,000+ and have become Nissan's highest-selling SUVs, and they must be cautious in the face of replacement. The cash Qashqai has a market discount of about 20,000 yuan, which has a higher cost performance.
This model is named HR-V/XR-V overseas, and since its release in 2014, it is long overdue for replacement. Unlike domestic models, overseas has been upgraded.
The exterior and interior of the new car have been completely renovated, and it is one of today's stunning and epoch-making Honda products. In terms of power, overseas is equipped with a 2.0L hybrid system, that is, the set of e:HEV powertrain on the Honda Accord, with a comprehensive maximum power of more than 200 horsepower, the power is comparable to 2.0T, and the fuel consumption is expected to be around 4L.
The new car is expected to be released in China during the year or early next year, and the power is expected to be 1.5T and 2.0L hybrid, further elevating the brand image.
Domestic current models have 1.5L, 1.5T optional, of which 1.5L models rely on more affordable prices, basically occupying more than 60% of sales. In terms of market discounts, Honda Binzhi now has a discount of 22,000, while the XR-V is about 18,000. But considering that the new models in the future will improve the active safety configuration, the professor believes that... Why don't you wait?
BMW X1 positions the entry-level SUV, which is the cheapest SUV product in the brand, and its main competitors are Mercedes-Benz GLA, Audi Q3 and so on. Its first generation lasted for 6 years and was replaced.
Now the second generation of X1 released in 2015 seems to be about to be updated, and there is news that it will be unveiled within the year, and the domestic or next year will follow up the domestic production.
At the beginning of the year, there were overseas media reports of the new X1 spy photo information, from the spy photo point of view, the new car body size is further increased, the length is even no less than today's lengthened wheelbase of the domestic X1, the overall more like a small X3, but the body is slightly lower.
The appearance continues the existing design style, and the size of the middle mesh has also been increased. Sure enough, for BMW, increasing the grille is a compulsory course.
The domestic current X1 has a wheelbase of 2780mm, which stands out among the entry-level luxury SUVs, has a huge advantage in space, attracts users, and last year's sales reached 95,000. Nowadays, the discount has reached nearly 90,000, and about 210,000 can be landed.
As for three cylinders not three cylinders? Is it really not good to buy a delicate BMW SUV at this price?
Positioning the sports mid-size sedan, each generation of models are stunning, Mazda 6 has a lot of fans in China, the first two generations of model update cycle as long as 5 years.
But! This third-generation Mazda 6 has been released since 2012 and is now 10 years old! Mazda fans are almost asking for the blood book "Faster Mazda 6".
But... Mazda is definitely a PUA master, on the one hand, it does not update the Mazda 6; on the other hand, it comes up with the Vision Coupe Concept, a handsome concept car that explodes, implying that the Mazda 6 will use it as a model;
Later, it shows that the new Mazda 6 will be built on the rear-drive platform and equipped with a six-cylinder engine, released in the first half of this year! Although you update, this update is also too fragrant!
but... Mazda "released pigeons" again, saying that it would shelve the release of the new Mazda 6 and concentrate on making SUVs, without playing like this
The domestic Mazda 6 Artez is now "absorbed" by Changan Mazda because of the restructuring of FAW Mazda, and is now in the stage of product production alternation, with relatively few vehicle sources, and the discount is only about 15,000, which is not cost-effective. Therefore, if it is really "not Mazda and not buy", it can only be regarded as a party.
For us consumers, buying a car is always a bulk consumption, and no one wants to buy an old model just now, nor does they want to buy a product that lags behind the same model. Therefore, it is crucial to understand their product life cycle, the above these new cars are facing generation, but it is recommended to buy according to demand and product strength, after all, "buy early and enjoy early, late buy and enjoy discounts".
