The interior of FAW Hongqi C801 is rarely exposed, equipped with a V8 twin-turbo engine, and the price may exceed 1.3 million
FAW Hongqi, known as the national car, has recently ushered in the first "big killer" in 2024! That is, the super flagship model in the picture, codenamed C801, may be for reasons of secrecy, this car has not had too much information before, but it has been shown at the national level! And Xiaohua has just gotten the news from the front, this car has officially started mass production, and the road test photos of the new car have also been exposed on the Internet, from the positioning point of view, this car will form a high and low match in Hongqi L5, and the price is expected to be about 1.3 million.
The picture is the C801 exposed on the Internet before, although it is at the same level as Hongqi L5, but the design style is diametrically opposite. Compared with Hongqi L5 that is mainly based on retro elements, this C801 shows more modernization! For example, in the front, from the headlights to the grille are used to tend to a regular design, in terms of aura alone, this car is enough to crush any opponent! You can see that the entire front face does not have any superfluous elements, both sides are composed of square LED light sources, and the middle is the same waterfall grille, and the Hongqi LOGO in front of the hood indicates the identity. So what you can see the most from this car is the sense of solemnity, and of course, the double-layered front bumper still guarantees a slight sporty element.
The size is still unknown, but it is predicted that the length of this C801 may be between 5370mm and 5390mm, and the wheelbase will be around 3300mm. The layout of the side can actually be seen as an extension of the front of the car, and there is also no redundant design, everything is based on a sense of solemnity, including the entire wheel hub also reveals a fighting atmosphere. In the position of the A-pillar of the body, there is a red flag LOGO, and there is no specific information about the rear of this car, which can leave some space for the imagination of friends.
In terms of interior, the C801 has once again innovated, with no connection to its sister model, the L5, and the solemnity of the exterior has disappeared in the interior. With the exception of the steering wheel, which still has retro elements, the rest of the positions have been completely redesigned. The embedded LCD instrument has Jaguar's visual sense, and in the middle is a super-large multimedia screen, which is designed with a whole row of physical buttons under it, or pays attention to practicality. To our surprise, for example, some solid wood has been added to the door lining and gear lever position, which is still relatively rare among modern car companies. In terms of seats, it still adopts a 2+2 four-seat layout, which is in sync with the Hongqi L5.
The picture above is the rear layout of this car, the power is on that side, this Hongqi C801 uses multiple sets of power, of which the flagship version is the V8 twin-turbo version of the independent four-seat version of the model, and the entry version is equipped with 3.0T V6TD petrol-electric hybrid and 4.0T V8 twin-turbo, in addition, in order to improve the handling of this car, the new car will apply "active rear-wheel steering" for the first time, and the standard configuration is "0 impact air magic carpet suspension"! The new car has now fully entered the road test stage, and the price is expected to be about 1.3 million!
