Deep blue automobile product planning exposure A number of models are about to be upgraded and unveiled.

On June 14th, auto media "AutoLab" shared the future product planning of Changan Deep Blue Auto. According to the plan, in addition to the recently launched hard-core off-road model G318, the existing SUV S7 and car SL03 are expected to be launched under the new names of S07 and L07 at the end of July and September respectively, welcoming the update.

The product plan announced this time also includes news of two brand-new models: a compact S05 and a six-seat SUV. S05 is scheduled to be unveiled in September, while the big six-seat SUV is scheduled to be launched in the first quarter of next year. The size of S05 is 4620mm x 1900mm x 1600mm, and the wheelbase is 2880mm. Consumers can choose pure electric or extended range version. This model was officially announced last month.

In addition, according to earlier reports, these new models will provide both pure electric and extended range power options, but the official has not disclosed more details about the big six-seat SUV.

Looking back on July 10th, last year, Deep Blue Automobile had announced four new cars, including coupe, medium and large SUV and other types. In the preview, the coupe model emphasizes strong power; SUV models have outstanding endurance; Medium and large SUVs imply versatility, and may compete with the ideal L8 or L9 in the market. The G318, as a hard-core off-road vehicle that has been released, focuses on its excellent off-road performance and passability.

Chery has another explosion! There are surprises everywhere

Today is a compact suv. Let’s take a look at its performance.

Let’s look at the appearance of Exploration 06 first. The front face of Exploration 06 looks fashionable and very recognizable. Coupled with the headlights, it is very visually impactful. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, automatic opening and closing, adaptive far and near light, delayed closing and so on. Coming to the side of the car, the body size of the car is 4500 mm * 1865 mm * 1680 mm. The car adopts eye-catching lines, and the side gives people a very stable atmosphere. With large-sized thick-walled tires, smooth lines run through the whole side of the car. In terms of the rear end, the rear end looks more sporty, and the taillights look very simple. Coupled with the unique exhaust pipe, it is very sporty.

Sitting in the car, the interior modeling took a simple and generous route, and the visual effect was very good. The steering wheel of this car is very tough, made of imitation leather, and has a full and delicate grip. Take a look at the central control, with a 13.2-inch central control screen, which makes the interior design quite layered and looks like a certain sense of science and technology. Let’s take a look at the dashboard and seats again. The dashboard design is remarkable and looks more streamlined. The car uses leather seats, which are wide and thick, and the overall comfort and wrapping are not bad.

Explore 06 matching wet dual clutch (DCT) gearbox, with a maximum power of 145KW and a maximum torque of 290N.m, with good power performance.

Look at the configuration again, and explore that 06 is equipped with driving mode selection, remote control key, Bluetooth key, rear wiper, interior atmosphere light, engine start and stop and other configurations.

Many people buy SUVs because of their stronger passability. The car is practical and fully equipped, and it is a good helper for home travel. If you like, you can pay more attention to it!

Challenge 300km high-speed endurance test Tengshi 500 glory edition

  [Professional Test] It is not enough to look at the comprehensive endurance of a pure electric vehicle. First of all, the comprehensive cruising range is tested in an ideal test environment, and the road environment in real life is much more complicated than the test environment; Secondly, if you only drive on the highway at a relatively high speed, the actual cruising range will definitely be less than the comprehensive cruising range, because high-speed driving is a working state with high energy consumption for pure electric vehicles. However, as a car, it is also one of its "jobs" to run long distances and take high speed. So how does a pure electric vehicle with a comprehensive cruising range of more than 450km perform at high speed? Today, we found such a car and tested it for everyone.

  The 2018 500 is a new model launched by Tengshi in March this year. Like the old models, it is positioned as a medium-sized pure electric vehicle. The biggest highlight of the car is its comprehensive cruising range of 451km, which is due to its lithium iron phosphate battery with a capacity of 70kWh. The car has two models, the fashion version and the glory version, and the latter is the top model of the car. Today, the test car we got is Tengshi 500 Glory Edition. Apart from the difference in configuration, the powertrain is also different. From the data point of view, the power performance of Glory Edition is better.

Tengshi Auto Tengshi 2018 500 Glory Edition

After reading the following, you have read 70% of the full text:

  1. The comprehensive cruising range of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the new car has increased to 451km, which is 99km; more than the old model;

  2. It can travel 290km under high-speed working conditions, and the charge after high-speed driving can reach 57kW, and 80% of the power can be recovered in about one hour;

  3. Driving for 200km in urban areas, with a remaining cruising range of 240km;;

  4. The dynamic response is good, and the acceleration of 0-100km/h is 9.65 seconds.

  If you want to know how these results are tested, and what kind of reference value these results have in your travel and driving process, please see our test content later.

Endurance test

  In order to carry out the endurance test closer to the real car scene and give friends who are concerned about pure electric vehicles more meaningful endurance test results, we will conduct the test according to the following conditions in the future:

  1. During the high-speed endurance test, the average speed is 90km/h 2 km/h, and this speed setting will basically be achieved by using the speed of 100-120km/h most of the time in the actual driving process. This operation is to restore the actual car scene on the expressway as much as possible, and it will not lead to dangerous high-speed driving behaviors such as slow driving and speeding.

  2. During the low-speed endurance test, the average speed is 30 km/h 2 km/h, which can simulate the actual situation of the vehicle as much as possible, including waiting for traffic lights, traffic jams, high-speed loop driving, etc.

  3. During the test, if the air conditioner is turned on, we will record the turned-on state (cold and warm air) and the turned-on time in detail. After all, on pure electric vehicles, the air conditioning components are considered as high-power electrical appliances on the car, and we will explain to our friends how the air conditioner affects the cruising range.

  First of all, before introducing the test process in detail, we will show the results of the endurance test to our friends. Because the power display of Tengshi 500 is not an accurate value, the following power values are all estimated values:

Cruising range test-2018 Tengshi 500 Glory Edition working condition Test duration Average speed Power consumption Power consumption per 100 kilometers Mileage traveled High speed working condition 3 hours and 14 minutes 90km/h About 85%

◆ High-speed battery life: "far" running and fast charging.

Tengshi Auto Tengshi 2018 500 Glory Edition

  Tengshi has used the recent average energy consumption to calculate the remaining cruising range since the first model. This algorithm will calculate according to the recent energy consumption state and remaining power, and show how many kilometers the vehicle can travel under the current energy consumption state. It is somewhat similar to the computational logic we have tested before.

  If the energy consumption state of a vehicle changes constantly through a variety of complex road conditions during a trip, the remaining cruising range value will also change frequently: the high-energy time-consuming value will decrease sharply, and the low-energy time-consuming value may increase. At first, it may make drivers feel confused and don’t know when to refer to the value, but this algorithm actually reflects the remaining endurance of the vehicle at a certain energy consumption level and can remind drivers of the influence of driving style on the endurance of the vehicle.

  Judging from the models we have tested at present, we can travel 290km at an average speed of 90km/h, which is quite good among pure electric vehicles. Without charging in the middle, you can run to Shijiazhuang with full charge (Baidu map query is from Zhongguancun in Beijing to Huaibei Park in Shijiazhuang, the whole journey is 289.7km, and it is basically no problem to drive at high speed). However, due to the weight of the car and the wind resistance of the car body, the power consumption per 100 kilometers at high speed reaches 20.9kWh/100km, and the energy consumption level is still relatively high. However, Tengshi 500 power battery itself has a capacity of 70kWh, so 15% of the power can still support the car to travel 52km in this energy consumption state. If you drive on the main highway, the remaining cruising range can basically reach the next charging station in the service area.

  Although Tengshi 500′ s high-speed endurance performance is good, here we still suggest that friends plan the interval of charging stations at 280-290km for high-speed travel to avoid the situation of power failure. In winter, it is necessary to reduce the mileage interval of route planning. After all, air conditioning and warm air consume more electricity than air conditioning and refrigeration.

◆ Charging performance: the battery will charge quickly when it is hot.

Tengshi Auto Tengshi 2018 500 Glory Edition

  From the charging information, we can see that when the temperature of the power battery reaches 41℃, the charging current and voltage are relatively high. According to the charging power displayed on the charging pile, the charging power is about 57kW. If charging in this state, the power of the power battery can be charged in one hour. According to the conversion of 70kWh into percentage, the charged power is about 81%. It can be seen that it is possible to charge the power battery to 80% within one hour when the temperature of the power battery is high.

  Driving at an average speed of 29.5km/h for 200km consumes about 51% of electricity, leaving a battery life of 240km. Although this achievement does not exceed the cruising range of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology for 451km at present, according to the measured cruising capacity, it is completely possible to charge once a week if the commuting distance is 40km per day. Not only that, even if the power is not enough, it will remain at about 50%, and the travel needs of other urban areas outside the daily commute or to and from the airport can still be met.

Ashton Chen’s Happy Moment: Tenderness and Choice Behind Retirement

As soon as the news came out, the online discussion about Ashton Chen’s trip quickly sparked a heated discussion. On October 24, 2024, the former child star swiped the screen on social media, not only because of his rare public appearance, but also because of his warm moments with his family. With the increase of social attention to privacy, the private life of celebrity families has always been a hot spot pursued by the media and the public. The appearance of Ashton Chen obviously makes people feel that a mature man shoulders the responsibility and love of the family.

In the photo, Ashton Chen is wearing casual clothes and riding in a luxurious Maibakh with his family. The picture looks luxurious and warm. In particular, he held his daughter gently, and his face was full of tenderness and happiness, which was moving. His wife has also become a bright spot in the media thread because of her outstanding figure. Obviously, Ashton Chen’s family is the envy of everyone, both in front of the camera and in life.

However, the quiet life in Ashton Chen is not always smooth. In the eyes of this outsider, he used to be an irreplaceable child star. He made his mark in shaolin popey and shaolin popey ii messy temple and quickly accumulated rich popularity. Although the aura of child stars once lit up his career, with the growth of age, the attention around him gradually faded.

This is the common fate of many child stars. The previous glory failed to last, and Ashton Chen slowly cooled down from the center of the spotlight in successive downturns. Although he still performed some performances, it was always difficult for him to return to his former glory. In 2003, under the persuasion of his family, he decided to suspend his acting career and study abroad instead, leading a relatively quiet life. It was this choice that made him escape from childhood oppression, but it also made his career into a dilemma.

After finishing his studies, he tried to return to the film industry. However, time did not treat this former young hero well. In the eyes of the audience, he is no longer the aura-threatening boy, but gradually marginalized as his figure becomes tall and mature. Despite Ashton Chen’s constant efforts to hone his acting skills, the decline of his career seems to go hand in hand. His experience in the entertainment circle reflects a common phenomenon: the challenge of the transition period of child stars and the accompanying emotional and psychological burden.

In recent years, the focus of Ashton Chen’s life has gradually turned to the family, choosing a low-key and meaningful lifestyle. Daily life with his wife and children has become an important way for him to express himself and seek happiness. Although the outside world may be confused about his career path, it does not prevent him from enjoying the present happiness.

In the era of social media, every movement of public figures is often interpreted as some kind of signal. In Ashton Chen’s story, we saw how a once shining star struggled in the gap between family and career, and finally chose a warm lifestyle. Perhaps in his mind, true happiness is not what the outside world thinks, but every quiet moment spent with his family.

Ashton Chen’s experience is not only an individual story, but also a microcosm of many contemporary people. Facing the choice of life, the way to balance career and family may be a topic worthy of our consideration. In the era of rapid development of digitalization and intelligence, AI technology has provided us with a lot of convenience and enabled us to grasp every moment in life more accurately. This might as well use AI tools such as simple AI to improve work efficiency and quality of life, so that every parent and worker can better manage their time and find their own warmth and happiness in the busy time. One step at a time will help you better cope with the challenges and opportunities of life.

Beijing benz GLB

Mercedes-Benz (Import) Mercedes-Benz GLB (Overseas) 2019 Basic Model

  Let’s talk about the overseas version of Mercedes-Benz GLB, which has already appeared. Different people have different opinions. I think the design of Mercedes-Benz GLB is more like a "decent" SUV. The more square design and family-style design elements are very suitable for some young consumers. Even in the absence of a hard-core atmosphere, GLB has found its own position without all-terrain tires, roof lighting and personality front surround, but the Buddha can be wild, stable and joyful.

  In terms of details, the relatively square large-size front grille conforms to the family face, plus the chrome-plated shape of the fog lights on both sides below and the air intakes composed of several rectangles below the grille, which also enhances their recognition and momentum to a certain extent.

  The side of GLB’s body is quite three-dimensional, and the nearly vertical D-pillar design not only takes care of the interior space, but also proves the identity of its SUV. Among many urban SUVs with coupe style, I believe that GLB, a very traditional design, will still please some people. In terms of size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4634/1834/1658mm and the wheelbase is 2829 mm. At the tail of Mercedes-Benz GLB, it was basically a straight and concise line battle. The taillight design is the same as that of Mercedes-Benz GLC, and the LED strip with irregular rounded corners is adopted inside, which is hard enough.

  If you still like AMG’s sports style, GLB’s sports kit version may be what you want. Compared with the standard version, the sports kit version looks more dynamic. The star-shaped chrome-plated mesh+single banner grille, exaggerated front enclosure (imitation) air intake and dense spoke AMG wheels make the strong sports style on the AMG model attached to GLB.

  Like the appearance, there are two styles to choose from in the interior. You can choose to be a mature and steady family man or a wild boy. But what remains unchanged is the iconic all-LCD instrument panel+integrated large screen of central control vehicle, turbine-type air conditioning outlet shape, brand-new Touchpad controller, steering wheel with full metal texture and thumb control function, or familiar "taste". Of course, the MBUX car system with natural speech recognition function and many in-vehicle interconnection functions will naturally not be absent.

Mercedes-Benz (Import) Mercedes-Benz GLB (Overseas) 2019 Basic Model

  Although it is a compact SUV, Mercedes-Benz GLB can be equipped with a third row of seats in addition to the traditional five-seat layout, thus becoming a seven-seat SUV. When 7 seats are selected, the vehicle seat layout becomes 2+3+2, in which the third row of seats supports 50/50 split down. Officials say the third row of seats is suitable for two passengers with a height of no more than 168cm.

"Beijing Benz GLB 200』"

  According to the application information, GLB has only announced two models, namely GLB 180 and GLB 200. As an entry-level GLB180 model, it not only cancels the front LED headlights and chrome trim, but also does not use LED as the tail light source. This is also to reduce the cost and make the price of entry-level models more close to the people. In terms of power, GLB 180 and GLB 200 will be equipped with high and low power versions of the 1.3T inline four-cylinder turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 136 HP and 163 HP, while the GLB 250 4MATIC with a 2.0T four-cylinder engine has no news yet.

Editor’s comment:

  It took only two months from the release of the concept car close to the production model to the launch. Compared with other models, this time is faster, which also proves from the side that Mercedes-Benz attaches great importance to GLB this time and Mercedes-Benz has high expectations for it. Before doing it, consumers who have been obsessed with overly individualistic GLA or slightly expensive GLC finally have a new choice and will no longer worry about the difficulty of choosing. At the same time, the new car is more considerate. In addition to the standard version of the five-seat model, GLB will also launch a seven-seat model, which will increase the practicality of the new car to some extent.


● Mercedes-Maibakh GLS

  At the 2018 Beijing Auto Show, the Mercedes-Maibakh Ultimate Luxury concept car made its world debut in Beijing. This concept car shows Maibakh’s determination to enter the high-end SUV market, and we also see that Maibakh has high hopes for the China market. At the upcoming Guangzhou Auto Show in 2019, Maibakh’s brand-new SUV model, Maibakh GLS, is expected to be unveiled simultaneously with overseas markets.

  Compared with Mercedes-Benz GLS, Maibakh GLS will be more luxury-oriented, and will pay more attention to creating a sense of honor in many details. Referring to the previously exposed low camouflage spy photos, the front face of this car will be modeled with Maibakh’s iconic multi-frame grille, which is expected to be decorated with a lot of chrome plating. In the case of retaining the overall design of Mercedes-Benz GLS, the front enclosure is expected to be more concise and will also incorporate chrome trim.

  On the side, Maibakh GLS is expected to add its own body logo on the basis of the regular version, and the shape of the side skirt will also be adjusted. In addition, the new car will be equipped with dense spoke wheels, and the production version is expected to be chrome-plated or polished. On the tail side, the exhaust styling of the new car is more unique.

  All of the above are predictions based on the recently exposed low camouflage spy photos. As a brand new SUV product of Maibakh brand, this car is expected to have many improvements in the interior. It is reported that this car will be equipped with a 4.0T V8 twin-turbo engine, and the output power is expected to be between 466 and 487 horsepower. In addition, some foreign media said that the 6.0T V12 engine will also appear in the power options of this car.

Editor’s comment:

  Maibakh is not dismissive of the SUV market. In 2017, it brought the Mercedes-Maibakh G 650 Landaulet model, but this car is positioned in a more personalized and niche market. Maibakh GLS, which will be launched this time, is a truly luxurious and comfortable product for consumers, and it is also a truly market-oriented model.

  It is nothing new for ultra-luxury brands to set foot in the SUV market. Rolls-Royce Cullinan and Bentley Tim Yue have all refreshed our "three views", and even Lamborghini and Aston Martin have given in to the SUV market. It’s time for Mercedes-Maibakh, which is rooted in the top market, to come up with an SUV. Facts have proved that not all local tyrants like to sit in executive-class cars, and around 2 million, local tyrants do not have many choices.


● Brand new Peugeot 2008/e-2008

  As early as July 1, 2019, the real car of the new generation Peugeot 2008/e-2008 was officially unveiled overseas. With the exposure of spy photos and declaration photos, the date of the domestic version’s appearance in China is gradually approaching, and the new generation Peugeot 2008/e-2008 will also make its domestic debut at the 2019 Guangzhou Auto Show.

  From the appearance, the new Dongfeng Peugeot 2008 is very similar to the overseas version. It adopts Peugeot’s latest family-style design language, and the logo of "2008" is directly located in the front of the hood. The design of the whole vehicle is quite hard, and the black body surrounding gives the whole vehicle more cross-border atmosphere. Brand-new lion claw headlights and fangs daytime running lights appear on overseas models, while domestic models change lion claw headlights into optional configurations.

Brand-new Peugeot e-2008 overseas version of the real car

  As for the rear of the car, the design of blackened taillights is the most recognizable part of the brand-new 2008. Black decorative strips connect the taillights on both sides and run through the rear of the car body. Fog lamps are located on both sides of the lower part of the car body. The new car also uses two exhaust ports on both sides. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the domestic version of the new car are 4312/1785/1545mm and the wheelbase is 2612mm respectively. Compared with the current models on sale, the length is increased by 132mm, the width is increased by 40mm, the height is reduced by 35mm, and the wheelbase is increased by 72 mm. In addition, the pure electric version of e-2008 is basically the same as the fuel version, but some details have been adjusted, such as canceling the exhaust at the rear, and the rim design is also different.

"New Peugeot 2008 Overseas Edition Real Car Interior"

  At present, the interior of domestic models has not been exposed, but it is expected to keep pace with overseas models. Referring to the real car, the new car also adopts the similar family design of Peugeot 508 and other models, which is full of "French sense of technology". Officially, this design is called 3D i-Cockpit Immersive Cockpit, which includes a dual-spoke sports steering wheel, a 10-inch central control LCD screen and an instrument with three-dimensional projection display. The buttons in the central control part are arranged horizontally.

"New Dongfeng Peugeot 2008 Declaration Map"

  In terms of configuration, the new car provides 17-inch /18-inch rims, panoramic sunroof, roof rack, black rear spoiler/black exterior mirror shell and other configurations according to different models. In terms of power, the domestic version of the new car is equipped with a 1.2T engine with a maximum power of 136 HP. The transmission system is expected to match the 5-speed manual gearbox /6-speed automatic gearbox, and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology declared that the fuel consumption is 5.0L/100km;. As for Peugeot e-2008, it is driven by pure electricity, in which the maximum power of the motor is 136 HP and the peak torque is 260 Nm. The top speed is 150km/h and the cruising range of NEDC is 430km.

Editor’s comment:

  The domestically produced old model domestically produced 2008 entered domestic sales in April 2013. While leading the trend of small SUVs, it also won a monthly sales of 8,000 units. However, 2008 did not make good use of its own advantages, and the speed of upgrading the product itself was quite slow, which led to the reduction of the product strength of the whole vehicle. The popularity of legal brands has also been declining, and the old model 2008 has finally ushered in the end of production suspension.

  After thorough planning, a new generation of 2008 has made a comeback. The new car has a brand-new appearance and a high-tech interior configuration. The old 2008 gives the impression of weak power, and it is expected to be eliminated with the continued use of the 1.2T engine. In terms of new energy, the 430km battery life of e-2008 is also good. However, today’s small SUV market is not as hot as it used to be, and the product strength of joint venture SUV competitors is not what it used to be. Obviously, there are still many things to be done if the brand-new 2008 wants to return to glory.

● Viequenko Banner

  As the brand-new flagship SUV of SAIC-GM-Buick, Angkeqi was not listed at this auto show, but chose to be listed in the "Buick SUV Family Night" on the eve of the auto show. The new car adopts a 7-seat layout of 2+3+2, positioning medium and large SUVs, which greatly meets the needs of family cars.

  According to the self-positioning of Angke Banner, it is necessary to have a sense of luxury and practicality in design. From this point of view, the family-style design style is naturally essential. At the same time, the design of Matrix LED split headlights makes Angkor Banner look extremely sharp. The headlights on the upper part are penetrated by silver strips, and the lights in the fog lights on both sides and the air inlets on both sides add a sense of movement. In addition, the front face of the new car adopts a multi-layer design with complex lines, and the large-size shield-shaped front grille on the front face is matched with the lower grille, which not only has the heavy feeling of American cars, but also adds the exquisite feeling of the whole car.

  In terms of interior, the new car adopts asymmetric central control design with two-color interior color matching, which has a strong sense of fashion. The central control screen area is connected with the instrument, and ignition and some control buttons are set on the driver’s side. At the same time, the new car is also equipped with a button shift mechanism, which is located on the panel in front of the driver’s right armrest, which is quite creative.

In addition, this medium and large SUV will also be equipped with the highest level mute technology of Buick Quiet Tuning and leading intelligent driving assistance technology and interconnection technology.

According to the official disclosure of SAIC-GM Buick, Buick Angke Banner will be built based on GM’s medium and large luxury SUV architecture (GM C1 platform) and equipped with GM’s new generation drive system.

Editor’s summary:

  The products in the medium and large SUV market can be said to be very extensive, ranging from the million-level flagship of luxury brands to the big family products with joint venture brands of more than 200,000 and 300,000. As far as the joint venture brand reaches the level of medium and large SUV, it basically has the top-level design of the family pyramid in terms of face value, configuration, space and power. For Angke Banner, its appearance can be said to give the Buick family a new flagship product, and it also has the function of enriching the family product pedigree.

  From the market environment, Angke Banner will first face the challenges of Toyota Highlander and Volkswagen Touron after listing. As hot products in the market, these two cars are well-balanced in all aspects and have a good market reputation. We will wait and see whether Angke Banner can compete with Highlander and Touron with sufficient product strength.


● Changan Peugeot Citroen DS 9/DS 9 PHEV models

『DS 9 PHEV』

  DS 9 is positioned in a medium-sized car, which looks quite fashionable as a whole. The family-style headlight group with dot-matrix front grille makes the front face very recognizable. Viewed from the side, the body lines are smooth, and the roof lines from A-pillar to C-pillar are designed to gradually sink, which seems to have a sense of diving. On the tail side, the new car is equipped with a duckling tail rear spoiler, which shows its sporty temperament. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4933mm/1855mm/1468mm and the wheelbase is 2895mm respectively. At the same time, the new car also offers six different styles of rims to choose from.

  In terms of interior, according to the spy photos of the previous test car, the overall interior of the new car is mainly black, and chrome-plated elements are added to the central control trim panel and the center console for embellishment, which has greatly improved the overall texture of the new car. In addition, the three-spoke multi-function steering wheel is matched with a large-size central control panel and an electronic gear lever. These configurations are undoubtedly to enhance the overall sense of grade and win the favor of more consumers who pay attention to quality and detail.

  In terms of power, according to the previous application information, the PHEV version will be equipped with a plug-in hybrid system based on a 1.6T engine, and the maximum power of the gasoline engine is 200 HP. More data needs further official disclosure, and the fuel version is expected to use the same engine.

Editor’s summary:

  Although the performance of DS in the domestic market is not very prosperous, with the marriage of FCA and PSA, it may bring a new turn for DS. Therefore, the launch of DS 9 and DS 9 PHEV will be crucial. As the new flagship of the brand, from the perspective of new car prospects, both the same-level products from BBA and many hot-selling products from joint venture brands will be the challengers they need to face.

  It is worth noting that from the operation of DS brand dealers, not only the number has dropped significantly, but also some dealers only provide after-sales service. Therefore, in order to make more consumers pay the bill, DS brand should not only bring forth new products, but also improve the convenience of the whole life cycle of vehicles, including service and after-sales links.

"The picture is 2.0L gasoline version"

  GAC Toyota Wildlander’s declaration map has been previously published by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. The new car is a sister car of FAW Toyota’s brand-new RAV4, which is built on the GA-K platform of TNGA architecture (the same platform as Camry/Asia Dragon/lexus ES), and its Chinese name is expected to be "Willanda". As a sister car, the difference between Wildlander and RAV4 is basically the same as that of Honda CR-V and Honda Haoying, only the front and rear styling has been redesigned, but the body has not been significantly changed.

  At the front of the car, Wildlander adopts a long and narrow willow-shaped front LED headlight group, and the lower air intake area is huge. The lower part of the split design is easy to remind people of Lexus spindle-shaped grille. On both sides of the front enclosure, the new car is also equipped with a large-size imitation opening design with built-in round fog lights. In addition, the Toyota brand LOGO of the dual-engine model incorporates blue elements, and the front fender also incorporates the HYBRID logo.

  Wildlander’s tail has also undergone great changes. The taillights arranged horizontally are slender in shape, with C-shaped light strips and C-shaped chrome strips inside, and the central black decorative board connects the lights on both sides. In the rear part, the new car uses a large area of black material for color separation, which looks more heavy. In addition, both the twin-engine model and the fuel model use two exhaust ports in both sides. In terms of size, Wildlander has a length, width and height of 4665/1855/1680mm and a wheelbase of 2690mm. Among them, only the length of the car body is slightly increased by 65mm due to the change of the front and rear surrounding shapes, and the width, height and wheelbase are consistent with the new RAV4.

Editor’s comment:

  Yet we called and urged a thousand times before she started toward us’s new generation FAW Toyota RAV4 Rongfang was finally listed in October this year. Different from the past, GAC Toyota also launched its sister model-Wildlander based on this global car, and they will jointly compete in the joint venture compact SUV market like the Corolla/Lei Ling combination. However, almost at the same time, Guangqi Honda also launched the sister model of Dongfeng Honda CR-V-Haoying, which adopts a new design and is slightly better than CR-V in configuration, and will be listed at the end of this month. By then, the competition between RAV4 Rongfang and CR-V will be upgraded to "doubles", and consumers will naturally have more choices. We look forward to the day when two new cars are put on the market.

  SAIC Volkswagen has previously released a preview of its new MPV Viloran. This special MPV from China, which will be officially unveiled at Guangzhou Auto Show, will also become the first commercial MPV under SAIC Volkswagen, and its competitors directly lock in the SAIC-GM Buick GL8, which is also from the SAIC family.

  Combined with the preview and road test spy photos, we can see that the new car adopts the obvious family design of Volkswagen brand, and the LED headlights with huge banner chrome-plated middle net can easily remind us of Volkswagen Huiang and brand-new Passat. As an MPV, the side of the new car is not so brilliant, and the side sliding door is also an expected configuration. Viloran’s tail shape is more fashionable, and the horizontal chrome trim under the tail LOGO is very slim, which penetrates the taillights that are also horizontally arranged, and also echoes the imitation exhaust chrome decoration at the lower enclosure, subtly enhancing the sense of exquisiteness. In terms of details, the "380TSI" logo also indicates that the new car will be equipped with a high-power version of the 2.0T engine.

Home of the car

  Previously, spy photos showed that the Viloran test car adopted a center console design that was almost the same as that of SAIC Volkswagen Touran. However, considering that they are similar in size and both are MQB platform products, it is very likely that the test vehicle temporarily borrowed the interior parts of Touran, and the final design and modeling still need to wait for the official announcement. In terms of power, it is expected that the new car will be equipped with 2.0T engines with different power versions, and the transmission system will also match the 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox.

Editor’s comment:

  Volkswagen has rich experience in manufacturing MPVs. Xia Lang, which was born in 1995, Touran, which was born in 2003, or the Volkswagen Transporter family (including Maitewei/Kailuwei, etc.) which has undergone changes for nearly 70 years are all classic models of Volkswagen in the field of household MPVs and light commercial buses. Combined with the flexibility of MQB platform, Viloran will also use a large number of mature parts from Touran, so the product strength foundation of the new car is still guaranteed.

  As for competitors, Buick GL8/GL8 Avenir has undoubtedly become Viloran’s "primary target". As a brand-new model, there is a Volkswagen brand endorsement, and the editor thinks that Viloran’s chances of winning are also great. In addition, regarding the Chinese name of the new car, Volkswagen has registered the trademark "Wei Ang" before. Combined with the fact that the flagship SUV of SAIC-Volkswagen Touran and the flagship car Hui ‘ang both end with the word "Ang", we expect that it is still very likely that this car will eventually be named "Wei ‘ang". Let’s look forward to the new melee in the MPV field!

Editor’s comment:

  As a compact SUV of China brand, the new Guangzhou Automobile Chuanqi GS4 will face great market competition pressure in the future. It is precisely because of this that it is very important whether a car has high value and excellent strength, and from the actual situation, the new GS4 also takes care of both. The new car after the replacement adopts the latest family-style design language, and its overall appearance is smoother and more fashionable than the previous generation. At the same time, the interior of the new car has also been upgraded. Two 12.3-inch instruments and the central control screen have brought a better operating experience, and its rich configuration is also a guarantee for the strength of the new car. Therefore, we can see that in the highly competitive compact SUV market, if the new GS4 can be priced reasonably, its sales will perform well in the future.


● Changan Ford Escape

  On April 3, 2019, Changan Ford Escape was officially launched, which is the first model under the Ford China 2.0 strategy. The new car is a domestic version of the overseas version of the new generation of Mavericks, named from the American version, and also to distinguish it from the European version of the model name "Kuga" used by the current domestic Mavericks. Of course, it is not difficult to guess that Escape will be sold together with maverick. In the future, the new car will be available in three styles: Titanium High Edition, ST-Line Sports Suite Edition and Escape Vignale Deluxe Edition with China’s front face.

Editor’s comment:

  Changan Ford Escape is the "leading" product of Ford China 2.0 strategy, and its performance after listing will directly guide the strategy. First of all, the new car specially designed a set of appearance scheme for consumers in China market, and at the same time provided original design options, so it can be said that it came with enough sincerity. Of course, in the current domestic market, compact SUV, as one of the largest markets, can be said to be a scene of hundreds of battles. Although Changan Ford Escape is paved by a maverick, it is not easy to draw a conclusion. At the same time, in the future, two cars will be sold together, and Changan Ford should guard against internal friction.

Editor’s comment:

  As a new energy vehicle of compact SUV, the exterior and interior styling style of MG eHS is really fashionable, which can attract the attention of young consumers. At the same time, its rich technology configuration has greatly improved the "playability" of the whole vehicle. This is also very pleasing to the young people who don’t leave their smartphones today. At the same time, the comprehensive powertrain with 251 horsepower can also meet the demand of some consumers for power. In addition, the car will be sold to Europe in the future, which can further strengthen the brand tonality of the car. Generally speaking, this car is a model with excellent comprehensive performance at present, and we have reason to expect that the new car will achieve good results after it is listed in the future.

According to official information, it accelerates at 0-100km/h or within 5 seconds, and the comprehensive cruising range of the pure electric version of NEDC will reach more than 500 kilometers.

Editor’s comment:

  Tengshi brand launched its first model, Tengshi, on September 26th, 2014. After that, there was not much action in terms of products. Although this model has good product strength, the popularity of Tengshi brand gradually declined because the subsequent models did not keep up in time. According to public data, Tengshi has lost more than 3.5 billion yuan in the past five years, with an average annual loss of 700 million yuan. Due to various factors such as single model, Tengshi’s annual sales volume is only a few thousand, and Tengshi’s sales volume is also declining. In 2018, Tengshi only sold 1,974 vehicles, down 58.12% year-on-year. The financial report released by BYD shows that in the first quarter of this year, Tengshi’s operating income was 35 million yuan and its net profit was-44 million yuan.

  Due to poor performance, Tengshi has been surviving by "blood transfusion" from both shareholders. From 2012 to 2018, BYD and Daimler increased their capital by 450 million yuan, 150 million yuan, 280 million yuan, 500 million yuan and 400 million yuan respectively. At present, Daimler and BYD have increased their capital for Tengshi seven times, and the total capital increase has exceeded 4 billion yuan. However, after July 1st this year, Daimler put Tengshi automobile sales system under its control, and took advantage of Mercedes-Benz’s domestic sales channels to open the market for Tengshi automobile. Coupled with the "timely" follow-up of Tengshi X, Tengshi seems to find a breakthrough. Compared with Tengshi models on sale, Tengshi X no longer only pursues pure electricity in one direction, but enhances the competitiveness of products in many aspects.

In the transmission system, the new car is expected to match Aisin 8-speed automatic manual transmission and support four-wheel drive.

Editor’s comment:

  In 2019, luxury brands concentrated their efforts in the mid-size car market-BMW launched the domestic 3 Series model, Audi launched the A4 modified model, Cadillac launched the CT4 and CT5. Of course, Volvo is also a part of it. The launch of the brand-new domestic S60 model is eye-catching: the new car adopts a brand-new family-style design style that is consistent with overseas models. Although the overall shape is simpler, the sense of movement is more prominent. However, it must be said that the situation Volvo S60 will face in the luxury brand mid-size car market in the future is also very severe. Both the BMW 3 Series with outstanding product strength and A4L and mercedes benz c Class with deep "mass base" pose no small threat to the new car. At the same time, as the second echelon of luxury brands, S60 has to face the attack of models such as Cadillac CT4/CT5, so the future market performance of the new car depends on its pricing.


Full text summary:

Evaluation of old cars: 15 models of Shouhao version of Changan Yidong

Happy New Year, everyone. 2017 has come quietly. Here, on behalf of all the colleagues of Xiaofan Tui, I wish the riders a full harvest and happiness in the new year. In 2017, Xiaofan Braking Car will continue to bring practical knowledge of car use and car selection to riders, and will certainly live up to the love of riders.

What I bring to you today is an old car, Changan Yidong 2015, manual deluxe edition, which is the car in the picture above. Let me briefly introduce the configuration attributes of this car.

The size of the escape car body is 4620X1820X1490, the width of the car is close to that of the B-class car, and the length is also good in the A-class car. The wheelbase is 2660mm, which is not small in this class. I don’t know how the interior space of the car is, which will be mentioned in later articles.

The escape displacement is 1.6 naturally aspirated. The engine is developed by French R&D Department of Changan Automobile. It is a high-speed engine, and the cylinder block is made of aluminum alloy. The gasoline model recommended by the manufacturer is 92 # gasoline, which is also in response to the use requirements of clean energy advocated by the state. The engine provides the maximum power of 92KW and the maximum torque of 160Nm, which is completely sufficient for the positioning of a "grocery shopping" car in daily life, and the power output is also good.

The rider’s car has traveled 13,832 kilometers. It has just been bought for a year, and it is going to be guaranteed for three times soon. The owner didn’t drive much this year. The specific working conditions are urban transportation, going to work, picking up children, etc. I often stop and wait for red lights and traffic jams. The fuel consumption meter shows that the fuel consumption performance is 6.9. Of course, the meter of this car is not particularly accurate. This fuel consumption shows that the owner’s technology is still very good. We got the car and measured the fuel consumption. We added 100 yuan of fuel, and ran for about 220 kilometers. Towns, cities and highways each accounted for one-third of the road conditions, which was less than 50 cents per kilometer. This fuel consumption performance is still a little higher than that of joint venture cars of the same level.

The owner is a very clean person, so the engine room is very clean, which is what we advocate. A clean engine room is very helpful for the maintenance of the engine and the circuit system, so we also suggest that riders maintain and clean the engine room of their cars.

After a brief introduction to these, the following is a detailed evaluation of all aspects:

First, the spatial expression: We describe it in detail from back to front.

1. Trunk space:

The depth of the trunk still has a good performance compared with the A-class car of the same level, and of course it can’t be compared with the trunk of the B-class car. The opening size of Yidong’s trunk is also good, which is also very convenient for placing large items. The owner is a very tidy person, and the whole trunk is very tidy. After putting so many items, the owner can still put a big boarding box in the back. The only disadvantage is that the rear seats can’t be laid down, that is, the trunk space can’t be expanded. If the car falls into the water, it is not conducive to the escape of the passengers. This is a disadvantage. I hope the manufacturer can put down the seats in the redesigned escape car.

2. Interior space of carriage:

I am 175cm, and the front driver’s seat is my most comfortable driving position. After I sit in the back, my leg space performance is quite good, and my fist is one thumb wider, so the space performance in the back row is still very good. In the same class, the space performance is quite good, and the head space also has four fingers. Maybe I am short and can’t represent the riding experience of most riders, but it can also explain the general riding experience.

Second, the appearance:

1. Positive face:

The front face of Yidong is very attractive, and the upper and lower air intake nets particularly complement each other. The chrome-plated strip on it is very classy. The only drawback is that I don’t know if this chrome-plated strip will rust and change color after being beaten by wind and rain. At present, the car of one year has not found such signs. The willow headlights are also very beautiful. The edges and corners of the headlights are connected with the A-pillar lines and continue to the top of the cover. The streamline feels particularly good. Fog lights are equipped at the front and rear, and now many joint venture vehicles at the same level have cancelled fog lights, which is a very unreasonable cancellation, because the visibility is not high on rainy days, foggy days and roads without street lights at night, and it is indeed a very practical equipment to have fog lights. I also hope that joint venture vehicles at the same level can be equipped with this equipment as standard.

2. Side:

The streamline on the side of the escape is also very eye-catching. The shape of the door stiffener and the door handle complement each other. This angle looks like the escape body is not small, and the edges and corners of the rear taillights continue to the door stiffener. It doesn’t seem to have any abrupt feeling. The feeling of the following stiffener is a little sporty, which adds a lot of dynamic elements to this car.

3. Behind:

Escape ass doesn’t feel bloated, although it looks fat, but it is very durable. The taillights are very clever. The backup lights are placed below, and the backup lights on both sides are on. Some cars only have one light, but this backup light is not too bright. It is not too safe to back up at night. You can turn on the double flash to back up, and the brightness is guaranteed.

Third, the interior performance:

1, work:

The interior workmanship is excellent at this level, and the stitching is very regular. The kind of stitching that does not appear crooked looks very unpleasant, and the assembly process of the escape is good. I have also tested other models of Changan, and the workmanship of Changan Automobile is quite good. This should be praised.

The platform of Zhongkong is made of hard plastic. It is true that it is basically this kind of hard plastic in the level of 80,000 naked cars. However, this hard plastic that is easy to move is still very comfortable to touch, and there is no sense of cheapness in the joint venture car. The feeling of soft leather created is still very real. This is what many car manufacturers should learn, which shows that Changan is making cars with heart.

2. Small details of central control:

Yidong’s central control uses a lot of chrome decoration, which makes the car look very classy, from gear lever, air conditioning adjustment button to media control button, which instantly appears tall. In terms of feel, the handle of the gear lever is particularly good and comfortable to touch, and the inhalation feeling of the gear is also particularly comfortable. The damping feeling of the air conditioner adjusting knob is particularly good, and the touch feel of the key is beyond the positioning quality of this product.

3. Multimedia functions:

Yidong’s multimedia screen is a touch screen, and the response is average. In the past, car Bluetooth is also very practical. Listening to songs and answering phones are very practical. Yidong does not support mobile phone mapping, but it is very authentic at this level. The navigation interface is also very concise and clear. I have no experience in the accuracy of the specific route. The owner told me that he also used this navigation on strange roads, which is said to be very practical. The reversing image is also very clear, and there is also a cycloid that rotates with the direction, which is a very practical function when reversing. USB and a separate power supply socket are provided below, and the cigarette lighter is independent, which provides a lot of convenience for smokers.

4. Storage space:

Escape storage space is still very good, the two cup holders are quite satisfactory, and the depth is not very deep. Generally, driving, the water cup is fairly stable. The small storage compartment in front of the gear lever is very practical. It is very good to put mobile phones and small invoices in it. This is a good design. Now many cars also adopt this design, which shows that this design is practical. The door handle can also be used as a storage compartment. The mobile phone can’t be put down, so you can put small items such as sugar. There is a large storage tank below, and bottled water can be put in front, but remember to tighten the bottle cap to prevent water from spilling out. The mobile phone and wallet can be put in the back, which is also very convenient. The other three doors are also designed in this way, which is a good design and convenient.

5. Other practical details:

Eye box: it’s very big, and there is a lot of room for my big glasses to put in. The reading light will light up when you press it directly, which is very convenient and practical.

Cosmetic mirror: it is very practical for ladies who love beauty. There are cosmetic mirrors on the driver and passenger, so taking your wife out will not be nagged by her because she urges her to go out.

Electronic clock: The electronic clock is in the middle of the center console, which is convenient for drivers to watch the time without looking down at the mobile phone. This is also a very practical function and does not affect safe driving.

Four, power matching and chassis control:

1. Power matching:

This engine is a high-speed engine developed by Changan Automobile, with a displacement of 1.6. It is also used in Changan Yuexiang V7. The low torque of this power is not very good, and it feels very fleshy at first. It is a bit like a turbocharged engine when the speed reaches 1500 rpm. The engine speed is really high, which is about 500 rpm higher in the case of the same gear and the same speed. When the high speed is 120KM/h in the fifth gear, the speed reaches 3500 rpm, and the power output at 4000 rpm is also very powerful. There is no feeling of powerlessness.

The whole power matching is not linear, and the clutch is high. After the first and second gears are shifted, the starting action will have a sense of frustration, which will bring bad driving skills to the passengers. Now this power matching is also used in Chang ‘an Yuexiang V7 manual gear, but there is no such feeling of frustration. I wonder if the new escape manual gear has also been adjusted. If there is no adjustment, I suggest you buy the new automatic version of Yidong. Now it is 6AT, which is good for the control of fuel consumption. If riders have a new manual version, lend me a test drive and give you better advice.

Escape also has a good performance on engine noise suppression. Sound insulation materials should also be made of good materials. At high speed, the engine noise will be transmitted to the cab, but at high speed, the wind noise will cover up the engine noise. If you don’t listen carefully, you won’t hear too many engine sounds.

2. Chassis control:

Let’s talk about this steering wheel first. The three steering wheels are too big, feel good, and the thickness is moderate. This steering wheel is a multi-function steering wheel, which can be used to control phone calls and media control, which is quite convenient in practice. The direction of the escape power is hydraulic power, which is heavier than the direction of electronic power. It is a small test for female drivers. When reversing and starting the vehicle, the direction is heavier and needs to be adapted.

Yi Yi’s chassis suspension is: front: L-arm McPherson strut suspension, rear: towed arm suspension. Yi Yi’s site training is a kind of hard, and it is not a comfortable car because it will feel bumpy when passing through the speed bump or running over the manhole cover. When passing through the speed bump, riders can pass at low speed.

Escape control is good in the same class car, because the suspension is hard, the car’s roll is small when cornering, and the car’s tracking performance is better when cornering fast, which will bring a lot of confidence to the driver. Coupled with the precise direction, it can be said that it refers to where to fight, not as vague as the direction of electronic power assistance at the same level, and can not give people confidence in cornering.

The NVH of the chassis is well controlled, which is excellent compared with the joint venture car of the same level. When passing through the unpaved road, the tiny vibration of the site tires will still be transmitted into the carriage. Of course, the price is there, and it can’t be compared with the B-class car of more than 200,000. As mentioned above, it is not a comfortable car, so you don’t have to worry too much about this matter.

V. Safety equipment:

All the safety driving equipment listed in the above list includes: driver’s airbag, engine electronic anti-theft, braking force distribution, traction control, ESP, reversing radar and reversing image, etc. The whole system of Yidong comes standard with ESP, which is not available in many joint venture vehicles of the same level. This function will not be used unless it is absolutely necessary. Once used, it is a life-saving equipment, which can give Changan a compliment. Finally, put a beautiful photo of xiaoyi.

Once again, I wish all riders a happy New Year. If there are any mistakes, I humbly accept your criticisms and corrections.

-Xiao Fan pulls the car-

Domestic luxury cars challenge Maibakh? Hongqi Guoya appeared at Tianjin Auto Show, and the deposit of 20,000 yuan was hotly debated.

Wow, fellow riders! Today, Xiaobian is going to give you a big story! You know what? At the just-concluded 2024 Tianjin Auto Show, the shoulder of our domestic luxury brand brought a heavy new car, which is the legendary "Guoya"! This is no ordinary new car, but a super luxury car that wants to wrestle with Mercedes!

Having said that, I can’t help but think of a paragraph I brushed in my circle of friends a few days ago:

"Lao Wang: I just bought a new car, which is more expensive than that!
Lao Li: Wow, did you buy Maibakh?
Lao Wang: No, I bought it! "

Yes, that’s it! Our domestic luxury car is finally going to make a big splash in the high-end market!

But wait, is it really that good?

Let’s take a look at the ins and outs of this "elegant instrument of the country"!

Remember watching the military parade when I was a child, the majestic red-flag car? That’s a special car for state guests! But now, as long as you pay 20 thousand yuan, you can book a red flag Guoya! What kind of fairy operation is this?

Actually, it all starts with the transformation of Hongqi brand. The former red flag, like a cold goddess, can only be seen from a distance and cannot be used for fun. But now? It has transformed itself into a big sister next door, kind but noble. Isn’t this change the epitome of the development of China’s automobile industry?

Speaking of Guoya’s motivation, that would be great. 4.0T hybrid system with maximum power of 360kW and maximum speed of 250km/h.. As soon as this data came out, my first reaction was: Is this allowed to take off?

Imagine that you are cruising Guoya on the highway, and your friends next to you are still worried about saving fuel. What about you? There is not only the surging power brought by large displacement, but also the energy-saving blessing of hybrid system. This is simply the rhythm that both fish and bear’s paw want!

Yan value is justice, which is more appropriate for Guoya. The body length of 5.3 meters, the large-size vertical banner with domineering side leakage and the chrome-plated front grille, as well as the red flag that can be lifted and lit, are simply moving works of art!

The interior is even more magnificent. Violet with ultra-white, terracotta brown with graphite black, spring wild green with rain ash ….. How does this color scheme sound like reading a poem? It’s probably more comfortable to sit in than a five-star hotel!

To tell the truth, when I saw Guoya going to compete with Mercedes-Benz Maibakh S-Class, my first reaction was: Are you kidding? But on second thought, why not?

Isn’t our high-speed rail in China already ahead of the world? Which field of mobile phones and home appliances is not killing foreign brands crying? Why can’t the automobile industry work? Besides, Huawei can build a car. What’s wrong with an old brand like Hongqi building a luxury car?

Some people say that the emergence of Guoya will stir up a pool of spring water in the luxury car market. But I think the water in this pool has already been turned upside down, okay?

Not to mention showstopper like Tesla, even sports car brands like Porsche and Ferrari are building SUVs. In this era when everyone wants to be online celebrity, how can there be a peaceful life in the luxury car market?

But then again, the emergence of Guoya may really bring some new possibilities to this market. After all, the label Made in China has changed from cheap to synonymous with high quality. Why not luxury cars?

Finally, I want to say that no matter whether Guoya can succeed in the end, its appearance is something to celebrate. Because it represents an important breakthrough in China’s automobile industry and represents that we are moving from a big automobile country to a powerful automobile country.

Then the question is coming. If you had a choice, would you buy Guoya or an imported luxury car? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area, let’s discuss this topic together!
