In the domestic automotive industry, independent brands have always attracted much attention. And the only car brand that can carry national feelings and sacred memories is this one, yes, the author is talking about Hongqi.
On April 24, the new Hongqi LS7 high-end private tasting meeting was held in the Summer Palace in Beijing, which was the debut of the new Hongqi LS7 as a flagship car, and also the beginning of the Hongqi brand officially opening the era of full-size hardcore SUV.
As the first full-size SUV of its own brand, the new Hongqi LS7 exterior uses the classic family design of Hongqi. Among them, the through-type flag connecting the grille and the hood is the highlight of the Hongqi model, while the light groups on both sides adopt a suspension and flying wing design, which also makes the entire front face of the new car look very dignified. It is worth mentioning that the Hongqi LS7 will also be equipped with a new lifting logo, which has spent some thought on the details, and the high-end attributes seem to have an inner taste.
The side shape of the whole vehicle is very square, its lines are very hard, and the overall outline will give people a solemn and calm impression. Thanks to the huge space behind the C-pillar of the new car, the whole car looks very slender.
In terms of the tail, the new car still inherits the classic elements of the red flag, the through-type taillights and the through-type chrome plating are clearly layered, the taillight cavity has a similar sunflower petal design, and the chrome trim of the new car's "four flat and eight stable" is also integrated into the rear bumper, and the overall visual is very recognizable.
It is reported that the new car adopts a non-load-bearing body, and in terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 5695/2095/1985mm, and the wheelbase is 3309mm. This is also the largest model in The Hongqi mass production car at present, and its three-dimensional size is even larger than that of Rolls-Royce Cullinan.
In terms of interior, the Hongqi LS7 gives me the feeling of a cockpit full of connotations, which does not adopt the popular "technology atmosphere", but adopts a large number of peach wood patterns and leather wrapping. The details are full of retro designs, and the center of the central control is also studded with a quartz watch. Of course, the new car also has a dual 12.3-inch LED screen, electronic shift lever and other designs, which integrate modern functions into retro luxury designs. Once in this car, my collection of pop songs will definitely not come in handy.
In terms of power, the new car is equipped with a 4.0T V8 engine with a maximum power of 265 kW and a peak torque of 500 N·m, and the drivetrain is matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission from ZF. It is reported that the new car will also use a four-wheel drive layout, and in the future, the new car will also provide a new energy powertrain.
Finally, the exterior and interior design of the Hongqi LS7 is very unique and does not cater to the popular trends of the market, which also shows that the audience of this car is definitely a group of people with unique tastes, and it is also a group of people who cannot be accurately matched by current passenger cars. It is reported that the new car is expected to be listed within May, as to whether the price of this car is more than one million, the author believes that it is left to those who have purchasing power to worry about it.
