Just now we got a set of Road Test Spy Photos of Guangqi Honda's new SUV, the model in the road test is not big, similar to Honda Binzhi, but unfortunately the spy photos only bring pictures of the body and the rear, there is no front face spy photos, it is really difficult to judge who it is.

But if you pay attention to the news of the recent American version of the Tian HR-V, I believe that this car is no stranger to you, from the silhouette and the light group exposed at the tail, it can be basically determined that it is the American version of the Tian HR-V. All along, GAC Honda Binzhi has been built based on the AMERICAN version of Tian HR-V, so the model in this spy photo is most likely a new generation of Guangqi Honda Binzhi.

Indeed, according to the cycle of Binzhi, it is almost to its replacement node, and everything is quite reasonable. But the whistleblower said that this car will be positioned higher than Binzhi, lower than Haoying, is expected to be a new compact SUV, one level higher than Binzhi, which statement do you prefer to believe?
Whether it is a new Binzhi, or a new SUV, we may wish to first look at this Honda's new HR-V, and the previous main home design is different, the new HR-V has also begun to take the sports route, replaced by a honeycomb hexagonal net, the front of the car is also covered with two more dynamic rib lines, the whole car also has a lot of black design, sports attributes have improved a lot.

It is worth mentioning that the current Binzhi rear door C-pillar door handle design, now in the new HR-V body can not be seen, it returns to the traditional style, from the previous foreign media news, the new HR-V size is larger than the old model.
In the North American market, Honda is expected to match the new HR-V with 1.5T and 2.0L engines, the domestic version, we guess it is the same as the new Civic, it is expected to have hybrid model support, how to layout, we also have to see further news from Honda.
Disappeared a few years and came back, Volkswagen's new Sagittarius GLI domestic exposure, to grab the Civic market
FAW-Volkswagen Sagittarius has launched a 2.0T model, which is what we often call sagittarius GLI, but I don't know what the reason is, after the 2018 model was renewed, it has never seen its shadow again.
But just recently, a group of Volkswagen Sagitar new GLI patent diagram exposed, after 5 years of Sagitar GLI is back, it will be in faw-Volkswagen under the domestic production, is expected to be released in the second half of this year, the opponent is also targeting Honda Civic and other sports models.

The new Sagitar GLI, its overseas version of the model (overseas version of JETTA) has actually been released in August last year, the model in this patent picture basically maintains the overseas version of the shape, as a high-performance sports version of Sagitar, naturally its performance flavor is more intense, compared to the ordinary Sagitar, it is equipped with a honeycomb type upper and lower grille, and there is a double exhaust layout at the rear.

If you refer to the overseas version of Sagitar GLI, it also adds red decorative strips to the front face, the two sides of the bumper and brake caliper also have red decoration, the roof, mirrors, window line, tail wing are blackened, the future of the new domestic Sagitar If you can also follow such a dress, then its sense of sport is no less than any sports car of the same level.

Compared with the appearance, the interior will be less athletic, but in the steering wheel with red logo, the seat uses red stitching and red atmosphere lights, other aspects are no different from the ordinary version of Sagitar, of course, this is also in line with the operation of the public, after all, the Golf GTI is also similar to the dress.

Since it is a high-performance version, the new Sagitar GLI will most likely use the same 2.0T engine as the Golf GTI, with a maximum horsepower of 220 hp and a peak torque of 350 Nm, matching a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, compared to the opponent Honda Civic, the parameters are much better, of course, the price is not expected to be cheap.

Is there a market for the new Sagitar GLI? Not to mention the price, compared to the golf GTI, the fame and popularity of sagittarius GLI is indeed worse, the reason why the golf GTI is loved by players is inseparable from the positioning of its small steel cannon, and sagittarius is a real family car whether in the domestic or overseas market.

Even if the horsepower is enhanced, there is still no golf GTI in the field of playing cars, and from the pricing of sagittarius GLI in the past, they have to break through the 200,000-level field, which is even more reason not to choose the golf GTI next door, which is probably the reason for the suspension of sagitar GLI before!
A bit like Ford's new Mondeo, Audi's new generation A4 is exposed, and the aura is much less
Recently, Audi's new generation A4 Avant model road test spy photos were exposed, and universal foreign media said that the new generation of A4 Avant will be released as soon as 2023, and the basic models of the same year will also be released.

Why push the travel version of the A4 first, instead of creating a sedan version first? According to the previous Audi designers, they often determine the style of the station wagon first, and then launch the sedan version of the model on the version, so it is understandable, so this time the new A4 Avant exposure, we can also basically determine the shape of the new generation of A4.

Seeing the first glance of this spy photo, I don't know if you have the same feeling, the new A4 Avant looks a bit like the Ford Mondeo that has just been listed, everyone is in the increase of the middle net at the same time, but it intends to shrink the middle net, and do a relatively flat, although it does not look like there is a problem in appearance, but in fact, the aura will be slightly insufficient.
According to such changes, foreign media also drew a set of new A4 Avant appearance renderings, the aura is indeed not as good as the current A4, but its sense of sport has been significantly enhanced, especially the tail light group design and the new lower surround, which looks a bit of An Audi RS family flavor.

Of course, Audi, which used to focus on creating a station wagon, the sense of proportion of the new A4 Avant is still very good, and it should be no problem to continue to lead the title of "the most beautiful station wagon".

The spy photo did not bring the interior, but the foreign media still revealed that it will be equipped with a new shape of the multi-functional steering wheel, as well as a larger size of the full LCD instrument and central control screen, while the original part of the physical buttons, will also be upgraded to a touch design, other aspects to audi to be further revealed.
In terms of power, the new generation of A4 Avant will add a 48V light mix system to the existing 2.0T gasoline/diesel engine, and some models will still use a four-wheel drive system. In addition, it is revealed that the new A4 Avant will also be equipped with a new 8AT gearbox to replace the current 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, which needs to be confirmed. However, I personally believe that no matter how the overseas market changes, the new domestic A4L should continue to use a dual-clutch transmission in the future.

Speaking of the domestic market, FAW-Volkswagen Audi's new generation A4L is also expected to usher in a replacement next year (2023), which should also keep up with the design of the new A4 Avant in spy photos.
At present, the domestic Audi A4L performance is still very stable, basically with the Mercedes-Benz C-class and BMW 3 Series monthly sales level is very tight, but unlike the other two, the current A4L is basically based on price for volume to achieve, we also look forward to whether the new generation of A4L can bring more surprises, for sales to add more efforts.
