The 2024 Shadow Leopard is here, with 12 upgrades to amaze you!
At the beginning of the year, GAC Trumpchi had already stirred the nerves of consumers and predicted that the 2024 Shadow Leopard would have a major upgrade. No, on May 1, a new generation of Shadow Leopard finally officially met everyone. Judging from the official information, this facelift can be described as a big deal, whether it is the exterior design, interior layout, or power configuration, there are many adjustments and improvements, which makes people look forward to the future performance of this sporty mid-size car.
The new model will be available in four models, with prices ranging from CNY 118,000 to CNY 158,000, which is the same as the current model. However, there have been 12 major upgrades in terms of configuration, which undoubtedly further improves the cost performance of the Shadow Leopard. For example, the whole system is equipped with 540° panoramic parking camera, CarPlay mobile phone interconnection, Yamaha audio, etc., and even the entry-level model has a lot of "luxury" configurations.
The most eye-catching thing is the design of the front face of the new car. The official word "blackening" is used to describe it, but if you look closely, you will find that this is not just a simple "change of clothes". The new grille shape is more angular, and with the streamlined design of the headlight cluster, the entire front face looks extremely sharp, showing a strong sporty style.
A comprehensive evolution of both internal and external, the 2024 Shadow Leopard brings multiple surprises!
In addition to the "blackened" design of the front face, the new car also has a lot of changes in the overall appearance. The lines of the body have been re-sculpted to give it a more sporty feel. The new Superstar Silver paint color adds a touch of fashion texture to this "sports car". All models are fitted with 18-inch Michelin performance tyres as standard, which not only help improve handling, but also highlight the sporty design concept.
In terms of interior, the 2024 Shadow Leopard is also renewing. In addition to the regular black interior, the new car also adds a white and blue color scheme, with a new interior texture, and the overall atmosphere looks more lively and stylish. The Shadow Leopard R-Style model is also available with an optional ultra-fast all-black suede upholstery, which highlights the sporty premium texture.
In terms of configuration, the upgrade of the new car is also all-round. All models will be equipped with the ADiGO intelligent Internet of Vehicles system, which supports remote control, OTA online upgrade and other intelligent network functions, and the experience of keeping pace with the times is amazing. Regardless of which model, it will be equipped with 540° panoramic parking camera, CarPlay mobile phone interconnection, Yamaha audio and other equipment as standard, and the "luxury experience" that used to be only available in high-end models has now become standard.
With equal emphasis on strength and cost performance, the 2024 Shadow Leopard will become the new favorite of the market segment?
The 2024 GAC Trumpchi Shadow Leopard is undoubtedly a mid-size sporty model with both strength and cost performance. Not only has the exterior and interior of the new car been comprehensively upgraded, but the powertrain and configuration level have also been greatly improved, but what is surprising is that the official price range is basically the same as the current model, which undoubtedly further enhances the competitiveness of the Shadow Leopard.
For those consumers who pursue sporty design but crave high value for money, the new generation of Shadow Leopard is undoubtedly a good choice. The front of the car is designed with a sporty feel, while the 18-inch Michelin performance tires are standard across the range to ensure excellent handling. In terms of interior, the Shadow Leopard R-Style model's high-speed all-black suede seats carry out the sporty design concept to the bottom.
The improvement of the powertrain is also expected. Whether it is the 1.5T with the main torque or the 2.0T with more "violent", it can meet the needs of different consumers. The 2.0T model will also add a balance bar at the top of the front overhang tower, and the handling performance will be further optimized, which will surely bring more fun to driving.
In addition to power and handling, the new car has also been greatly improved in terms of intelligent networking and configuration. The standard ADiGO intelligent car connection system, 540° panoramic parking image, CarPlay mobile phone interconnection, etc., were once exclusive to high-end models, but now they have benefited all models, and the cost performance can be said to have risen sharply.
