Hongqi has risen again! It was once questioned, but now it relies on this car to sell more than 10,000 per month and 2 to the top of the sales crown
Today's domestic brands are not the same as a few years ago, and they have been in full bloom in the traditional fuel vehicles, new energy vehicles and other markets. If you want to elect an outstanding representative who has risen in recent years, many people may choose the most popular BYD, Geely and other strong private brands or "Wei Xiaoli" and other new power brands, but here in Xiaodi, you will definitely vote for the red flag without hesitation. After all, the brand and the parent company behind it are both shouldering a historical responsibility, and now that it has officially returned to the consumer market, after years of hard work, sales are also very competitive. And the first new car after the Hongqi reform, the H5, can be said to be indispensable.
Although it has received mixed reviews on the Internet, it is undeniable that it is the first family car among the Hongqi brands in the new era to truly achieve large-scale volume and be recognized by mainstream consumers. When the first generation H5 was first launched, some netizens even captured a rare long queue at the door of the Hongqi 4S store.
Today, the new generation of Hongqi H5, still maintains the strong momentum of previous models, as a traditional fuel vehicle model, in the face of the market still retains a strong position in the Volkswagen, Toyota, Honda and other joint venture brands, it successfully won the domestic B-class car segment sales champion in February this year, even more than Camry, Accord and other Japanese competitors, as well as Model 3 such a hot new energy competitor, second only to the German Volkswagen Passat, Magotan and BMW 3 Series, The top brand of the two luxury brands of Mercedes-Benz C-class is enough to see the brand status of Hongqi today. So this new Hongqi H5, is the product power really worth such a market performance? Let's take a look at this classic.
The new generation of H5, compared with the old model, is more bold, the appearance design style is fully in line with their big brother - H9, using the same waterfall grille, the front grille on both sides with a huge chrome trim like wings, the whole front face is full of luxurious texture, with Hongqi's iconic central red light strip, the visual recognition is very high.
On the side of the body, the H5 adopts a relatively more traditional sedan shape, which looks more in line with the dignified image of Hongqi in everyone's minds. In terms of body size, the three-dimensional dimensions of Hongqi H5 are 4988 mm long, 1875 mm wide, 1470 mm high, and the wheelbase reaches 2920 mm.
The interior performance is also better than that of the joint venture competitors. First of all, it is very conscientious in terms of materials,Hongqi H5The cockpit adopts a T-shaped center console,With a huge size of the vertical placement of the 12.6-inch central control screen,And support such as wake-up word voice control、4G Internet of Vehicles、OTA upgrade and other intelligent functions,At the same time, a certain number of physical buttons are retained to facilitate blind operation。 The steering wheel adopts a unique three-spoke shape, with an LCD screen dashboard, and the materials are very conscientious. In terms of configuration, the whole system is equipped with reversing radar, sports mode switching, hill assist, keyless entry/start, leather multi-function steering wheel, panoramic sunroof, etc., and the high-end model also has HUD head-up display, automatic anti-glare in the interior rearview mirror, wireless charging of mobile phones and other functions.
The design of the seat is very wide and thick, the comfort is very good, and the surface is wrapped in leather, the whole system is equipped with the six-way electric adjustment of the main driver's seat as standard, as well as the four-way adjustment of the passenger seat, and the high-end model also has a leather-wrapped material, and the design with textures further enhances the grade and atmosphere of the interior of the cabin, and even the seat memory of the main driver, 8-speaker Dynaudio audio, and the rear seat heating function.
The performance of the rear row is also very good, the space is very wide, the rear legs have a very spacious space, the seats are wrapped in high-grade leather with textures, the only defect is that because it is a traditional fuel car, it is necessary to leave space for the central exhaust duct to be arranged, so the central bulge of the rear row is relatively high, which affects the comfort of the middle passengers.
In terms of power performance, the all-new H5 offers two different fuel powertrains, as well as a state-of-the-art hybrid powertrain. Among them, the fuel version of the model has two sets of powertrains: 1.5T+7DCT and 2.0T+8AT, the maximum horsepower of the 1.5T engine has reached 169 hp, the maximum torque is 258 Nm, the acceleration time of 100 kilometers is 9.5 seconds, and the WLTC comprehensive fuel consumption is 6.2L/100km, and the maximum horsepower of the 2.0T engine has reached 224 horsepower, the maximum torque is 340 Nm, the acceleration time of 100 kilometers is 7.8 seconds, and the WLTC comprehensive fuel consumption is 6.4L/100km.

It can be said that the cost performance of Hongqi H5 has reached a very good level among domestic intermediate cars, with a price threshold of about 150,000 yuan, plus the exclusive rights and interests of more than 60,000 yuan offline and maintenance policies, the overall cost of the car has a certain degree of advantage compared with German, Japanese and other models. Moreover, the choice of two different configurations of fuel and hybrid can meet the needs of users who have higher requirements for cost performance, as well as different consumers who are more interested in driving quality and fuel consumption. Coupled with its own sense of refinement and luxury, it is still very competitive at the price of 15-200,000 yuan.
It is no exaggeration to say that Hongqi H5 has been a relatively successful member of the domestic high-end sedans in the past one or two years, plus H7, H9, E-HS9 and other well-known high-end models, Hongqi has achieved a breakthrough in the brand, and has radiated new vitality in the new era. However, in the face of the counteroffensive of many new generation new energy models, we also hope that Hongqi will not simply be satisfied with the current success, but also be able to further improve itself and launch more good cars with excellent cost performance and excellent grade in the future!
