It is said that art is a reincarnation, and what was once called obsolete will always come back at a certain point in time and lead the trend again. The automotive circle has also recently blown a retro trend, they think that everyone will like this classic style with modern technology models, and the loose locomotive equipped with BYD DM technology is a representative of this model. Great Wall Motors is also very interested in the "Renaissance", during the Chengdu Auto Show, they will release this new SUV model of retro tide driving. Retro classic cars equipped with DHT hybrids and WEY LOGOs are coming, can they catch fire?
The first time I saw this model, I unconsciously sounded the melody of "On the Beach" in my mind, and my thoughts immediately returned to the turbulent times. As the name suggests, this retro trendy car doesn't look like a 21st-century thing. The towering lid and multi-layered chrome mesh look imposing, and the WEY logo is not in conflict. The round lights on both sides are just like that to hold you straight up, and then the light source of the LED pulls me back to 2021.
Today's cars are limited by crash regulations and aerodynamics, and most of them are made into a variable panel. This retro trendy car uses a number of metal trim strips as bumpers, which has the feeling of an old-fashioned high-end car. In the middle is millimeter-wave radar for assisted driving, a retro-futuristic collision that can be seen many times on this car.
The new car will be more than 4.8 meters long and about the same size as a mocha. The towering, straight front of the car is imposing, and the chrome decoration on the fenders is exquisite. The roof is a slippery shape, and the height of the front and back is low to show an upward shape. Like many vintage cars, chrome trim is used for window lines, door handles, and sills. The huge wheel arch is like a large and wide body of the original factory, making the entire side shape become three-dimensional. The wheel hub is a very old-fashioned multi-banner style, and the practice of hiding the screws with chrome trim panels is very old-fashioned. Through the spokes, we can see that the new car uses the braking system of the front and rear disc brakes, and the basic safety can still be provided.
The tailgate uses a one-piece molding style, and the windshield embedded in the tailgate is very similar to a classic car. WEY's English logo is in the middle and looks extremely concise. The taillights are so well placed on both sides, and the outer ring is unsurprisingly wrapped with chrome decoration, which looks more delicate. The rear bumper also has a metal texture guard similar to the front bumper, which is highly recognizable when walking in the traffic of the 21st century.
Being in a retro-fashioned carriage gave me a sense of time and space confusion. The retro tide driver uses a layout of the wrap-around center console, which is in line with the current trend of car design, while the brown + beige color scheme brings classical beauty. The interior layout of this car is more conventional, using the popular triple screen layout, supporting basic functions such as the Internet of Vehicles and OTA upgrades. The three-panel steering wheel uses a double color block design, and the chrome silver ring on the bottom can be seen on many models of the last century, which is very ceremonial.
The interior materials of the new car are very interesting, in addition to the conventional leather stitching of the center console, the roof is also wrapped with fur material, which is quite a noble experience. Velvet materials are used in door panels, seats and other positions, creating a texture of an old-fashioned home. The rear of the new car is quite in place, with headrests and three-point seat belts in all three positions, and the panoramic sunroof adds to the sense of openness.
In terms of powertrain, the retro tide drive will be equipped with the latest DHT hybrid system of the Great Wall, trying to achieve a better balance between fuel consumption and performance. For the Great Wall, this set of hybrid systems will be laid out on a variety of models, but they are all on compact SUVs such as H6 and Macchiato, and the retro tide driving medium-sized SUV is still relatively novel with the DHT system.
Summary: Retro look + the latest trendy car experience, this is all about retro trend driving. Since this car is hung with the WEY LOGO, the price will not be too low, and it is likely to directly exceed 200,000 yuan. In any case, the return rate of driving such a retro car to the street must be very high, I don't know if you like this feeling of being paid attention to by the world, if you like it, you must quickly prepare the money.
