With the popularization of new energy, the current attention of fuel vehicles is declining, so what is the current sales performance of fuel vehicles in the terminal market? As an example, the top three sales in the domestic B-class sedan market in April were Passat, BMW 3 Series, and Magotan, while only Hongqi E-QM5 was a pure electric vehicle among the top ten models. Obviously, in the current B-segment car market, fuel vehicles are still the main sales force.

But it is undeniable that at present, even the joint venture B-class car has a large price reduction in the terminal, and the guide price of the B-class car on the market in recent times has also been greatly reduced, among which the starting price of the new generation Camry is 8,000 yuan lower than that of the previous generation, and the price of the high-end version of 206,800 yuan is more than 60,000 yuan lower than that of the previous generation. The starting price of the new-generation Sonata has dropped to 139,800 yuan, directly entering the price range of the A-class sedan.

In this market context, as an evergreen tree in the B-class sedan market, at the 2024 Beijing Auto Show not long ago, #全新一代迈腾首发亮相#, it is reported that the new generation Magotan will be officially launched in June. So what will be the impact of the new generation Magotan on the B-segment sedan market after it is launched?

Let's take a look at the product power of the new generation of Magotan. The new generation of Magotan is designed by Marco Pavone, the current director of Volkswagen exterior design and legendary designer, and adopts a new "Timeless" design style. The overall silhouette of the front face is very tough, the headlights are angular rectangular, and the through-type chrome grille with light strips adds to the sense of style. The front bumper has a sporty shape with prominent spoilers on the sides and bottom.

The length, width and height of the new generation Magotan are 4990/1854/1487mm, the wheelbase is 2871mm, and the body length is 124mm longer than the previous generation, so the side looks more stretched and smooth, and the structure of the long front and long tail is still a very stable style. In terms of details, the waistline with low front and high rear and the shape of the wheels all add to the young and sporty atmosphere.

The tail design style of the new generation Magotan has changed a lot, and the through-type taillights have finally appeared on the new car, with the car logo in the middle of the light group and letters under the car logo. The transverse light strip on the rear bumper is very individual, and the decorative chrome exhaust pipe shape on the current model has been removed and replaced with a true concealed one.

Interior part, the center console of the new generation Magotan uses the latest family style, the overall layout is very simple, although it is a fuel car, but the new generation of Magotan still highlights the screen, providing an embedded instrument panel, a suspended central control screen and a co-pilot display screen three large screens, and finally creates a sense of fashion and technology. In addition, there are ambient lighting in the center console, sub-center console, and door trim panels.

According to the official information, the new generation of Magotan will use the on-board intelligent driving solution from DJI, matching the IQ.Pilot high-end intelligent driving system that supports L2+ advanced assisted driving.

In terms of space, the wheelbase of the new generation Magotan is the same as that of the current model, and as an executive-level B-class sedan, its rear space can be satisfied for home and business. Judging from the current information, the front and rear seats of the new Magotan will provide ventilation, heating and other functions.

In terms of power, according to the previous declaration information, the new generation Magotan will provide 2.0T high power and 1.5T engines, of which the 2.0T engine can output a maximum power of 162kW and a maximum torque of 350N·m; The 1.5-liter model produces a maximum output of 118 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. The powertrain is mated to a seven-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox.

Comments: The exterior and interior design of the new generation of Magotan still adopts a relatively stable scheme, which can meet the aesthetics of most people, so there is basically no problem in appearance. The upgrade of intelligent configuration and comfort configuration is a major highlight, and the new generation of intelligent driving system and rich comfort configuration can be regarded as "on par" with independent brands. Under the price pressure of new energy models and similar models, the final price of the new generation Magotan is expected to be lowered compared to the previous generation. The launch of the new generation of Magotan will not only bring new pressure to the B-class sedan market, but on the other hand, it will also regain some confidence in the fuel vehicle market of the same class.
