1905 movie network feature In 2017, the total box office reached 55.911 billion yuan, an increase of 13.45% year-on-year. Domestic film box office 30.104 billion yuan, accounting for 53.84% of the total box office; 92 films with a box office of over 100 million yuan, including 51 domestic films. City cinema attendance 1.62 billion, an increase of 18.08% year-on-year.

Looking back on the changes in the film market this year, it is still turbulent and diverse. From the data point of view, the overall trend of the mainland film market is still catching up, with unlimited potential. In 2017, there were 9,597 new screens in the country, and the total number of screens has reached 50,776, surpassing North America to rank first in the world.

　　

Judging from the works, the main theme film and the literary film based on insisting on originality have become two dark horses that cannot be ignored. Among them, the bold attempt of "Wolf Warrior 2" to integrate commercial style not only brought a string of amazing figures in China – single-day box office 426 million, final box office 5.68 billion, but also attracted great attention internationally. It successfully ranked 55th in the top 100 global box office list, once again proving the importance of the main theme film to demonstrate cultural confidence.

　

　 　In addition, the literary and artistic films represented by "Gang Rinpoche" and "Twenty-Two" can break through the encirclement with very few films and become well-known films with quality, which also proves that the audience’s thirst for realistic films has been growing, and the level of appreciation has also been rapidly improved.

　

　　

The impressive market results are also due to the increasingly rational trend of the film market this year. Traffic actors no longer only focus on popularity but also think about acting, and ticketing websites reshuffle to change the distribution power structure. These phenomena can be described as a return to basics after washing away the lead.

　　

The official implementation of the "Film Industry Promotion Law" has also given the film industry a law to abide by, providing a lot of convenience for film creators and a basis for the rectification of industry chaos. Of course, in the journey of the prosperous film market, there are still some episodes that make people reflect. But small cleverness cannot shake the big market.

　

Now, let’s take a look at the top ten keywords of the film market in 2017, and reminisce about this year’s "big surprises and little secrets".

01　Film Industry Promotion Law

　

On March 1, 2017, the "Film Industry Promotion Law" came into effect, providing for the first time in China to regulate and develop the film industry in a legal form.

　

　

As the first industry law in the field of China’s cultural industry, the Film Industry Promotion Law has made clear provisions on decentralizing film approval rights, increasing support for rural films and ethnic minority films, and protecting the rights and interests of audiences.

　

From then on, film censorship will be reduced to the provincial film authorities, and for the issue of film viewing in border areas and ethnic areas, the Promotion Law stipulates that social funds should be actively directed to invest in rural film screening.

　

In addition, for some larger-scale movies, the promotion law also stipulates that theaters should "prompt movies that may cause physical or psychological discomfort to minors and other audiences." Many theaters reminded audiences at online and offline ticket windows during the release of "Wolverine 3."

　

　

As an industry law that regulates the order of the film market, the Film Industry Promotion Law also makes relevant provisions on the protection of film intellectual property rights and the act of stealing and concealing the box office.

　

Film intellectual property rights are subject to law, and piracy, plagiarism, and other acts in the industry will be severely cracked down. For theaters to steal and conceal box office and set up ghost fields, in addition to facing fines, serious circumstances will be ordered to suspend business for rectification. If the circumstances are particularly serious, the original licensing authority will revoke the license.

　

Shortly after the implementation of the Industrial Promotion Law, the competent authorities punished 326 cinemas that had stolen and concealed the box office in 2016, severely cracking down on them, with remarkable results.

The introduction of the "Film Industry Promotion Law" not only directly promotes the film itself, but also the ideology and industrial culture associated with the film, as well as the improvement of the international dissemination ability of Chinese culture and the improvement of the country’s cultural soft power.

Yin Hong

Director of the Film and Television Communication Research Center of Tsinghua University

The Film Industry Promotion Law, as the first industry law in the field of Chinese culture, is not only the culmination of China’s film industry reform experience, but also can escort the continued development of Chinese film.

　

02　Art film

　　

In 2017, several art films broke through the siege under the attack of many blockbusters, gaining a good reputation and box office.

　

The first to bear the brunt is the Tibetan theme of "Gang Rinpoche", the first week of the film box office only 17.03 million, but with people’s word of mouth good word of mouth, the second week of the film box office more than 3 times, the third week is in accordance with 5 times attack.

　

　

In an instant, the discussion of beliefs and the value of life in the film has also become a hot topic in society, and netizens have responded very enthusiastically.

　

Also in this performance is the recently released "Twenty-Two", which uses the experiences of the 22 surviving "comfort women" in the Chinese mainland as a backdrop to objectively present their living conditions.

　

　

The film finally 170 million box office, and evoked people’s memories of that history, causing people to reflect on reality.

　

On the one hand, the two art films that made a comeback at the box office meant that the audience’s appreciation ability was generally improved. On the other hand, it also showed that the audience had an increasing demand for films with realistic themes and films with social topics.

　

Chen Zhixiong

Co-founder and Chief Content Officer of Poisonous Tongue Films

Instead of just asking the audience to yearn for art, sometimes art can also be audience-oriented. We need too much attention to reality, movies with social topics.

Zhou Liming

film critic

The counter-attack of excellent niche films means that the audience’s appreciation ability is generally improved. It does not mean that all films with good reputation can get the box office results they deserve, but at least it announces the end of the era of box office and word-of-mouth inversion.

　

03　Business theme

　　　

If 2016’s "Mekong River Action" allowed us to see the charm of the main theme film commercialization 1.0 for the first time, then in 2017’s "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Army Building", we saw the infinite possibilities of the main theme film commercialization 2.0.

　

The sharp and clean editing, the tight-paced narrative, the cheerful martial arts footage, and the positive theme of home country have all opened up a new path for "Chinese blockbusters," and these elements also make the audience’s blood boil and passion.

　

　　

The box office performance of "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Army Founding" also proves the success of the commercialization of the main theme film. Among them, "Wolf Warrior 2" broke 100 million in 4 hours, the single-day box office 426 million, and the final box office 5.68 billion RMB, which has surpassed the "Mermaid" opening 280 million. The single-day box office reached 310 million and the final box office was 3.389 billion yuan, setting a new record for domestic film box office.

　

　

As a tribute to the 90th anniversary of the founding of the army, the film "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Army" also reproduces the difficult process of the Chinese Communists to create a revolutionary army with its majestic image style and magnificent war scenes, and has won 400 million box office success.

　

It can be said that the high box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" has revolutionized the audio-visual language of domestic main theme films, making the main theme theme the main theme of the market. In addition, the inner theme of the main theme film is more important to bear social responsibility and carry forward the national spirit.

Nowadays, the main theme film is taking up its due social responsibility, not only strengthening "road confidence, theoretical confidence, system confidence, and cultural confidence", but also the main theme film itself is more confident.

Liu Yang

Deputy Editor-in-Chief of the Cultural Interview Room of the Ministry of Political and Cultural Affairs of People’s Daily

The high box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" has broken the curse that has haunted domestic main theme films for many years. The main theme theme can also become the main theme of the market. The key lies in how the characters are shaped and how the story is told.

　

04　Traffic star

　　

In the past two years, the traffic star was the "handle" on the big screen. Its huge fan traffic could make a movie of mediocre quality continuously stir up hot topics, thus driving the box office to improve.

　

However, in such a state, a large number of assembly line works with celebrities as gimmicks appeared in the market, which also gave rise to a lot of industry chaos in which traffic stars "use stunts for performances and rely on pictures for filming".

　

This year, the influence of traffic stars on the performance of a movie has gradually weakened, and the joining of small fresh meat and small flowers is no longer equivalent to high box office, and audiences are gradually returning to the movie itself.

　

　

In the second half of the year, whether it was "The Performer’s Word" or "The Birth of an Actor", a number of programs to discuss performance came into being, inviting many powerful actors to speak out, returning the performance to the essence of art and providing an excellent demonstration to the traffic stars.

　

　　

Zeng Jian

Tencent network film and television team leader

The appearance of streaming stars is not a problem, but in a movie market, only streaming stars are a big problem. People’s demand for streaming stars is real, but people’s demand for excellent acting is also real.　

Chen Zhixiong

Co-founder and Chief Content Officer of Poisonous Tongue Films

We see from movies (works) that the characters of celebrities are getting thinner and thinner, but the noise received from outside movies (works) is becoming more and more noisy.

　

05　original

　

The popularity of IP has ebbed, and the originality has been improved, which is the indicator of the film market in 2017. IP adaptations have been very popular in the past few years. A large number of romance novels and fantasy novels have been brought to the screen, but adaptations themselves are a technical task. If they are not changed well, it is easy to become a mediocre work that relies on piling up stars to cash in, thus losing the soul of the original work.

　

　　

The ebb of IP craze does not mean that IP will withdraw from the market, but that IP adaptations are becoming more rational and no longer blindly followed. At the same time, the power of originality has once again attracted people’s attention and become the focus of the market.

　

This year, many creators have created a number of high-quality films such as "Riding the Wind and Breaking the Waves", "Carnival", "Love and Blind Date" in the spirit of originality.

　

　

In addition to showcasing the imaginative imagination, these films still do not forget to focus the camera on real life, depicting the joys and sorrows of each living individual, resonating with the audience, which is also the charm of originality.

　

Sairen

film critic

In 2017, Chinese films were imaginative and unrestrained, but they still did not forget to carve out individual dignity. And all of this is the source of originality. What is the source is the honesty and bravery of the creator.

When it comes to Li Chengru, everyone will always think of the sharp-tongued "upright boy" in "Actors Please Take Place". As an old actor in the entertainment industry and a great senior of young actors, he has many "textbook" performances that are talked about by the public.

When he evaluated the actor’s acting as "like pins and needles, like thorns on the back, like stuck in the throat", "like chewing wax, like chicken ribs", no one suspected that his evaluation was biased except that his words were too sharp and did not save face.

The fact is that as a senior actor who can complete three or four hundred words in one go, the requirements for performance are naturally high. In addition to Li Chengru’s newly launched"Play Confucian Life" personal video column is to convey to us more of his views on drama, film and television, acting.

The second episode of the program talked about a genre of drama that everyone is very interested in: comedy. As a major category of film and television dramas, the audience is also very wide. When it comes to domestic comedies, everyone must think of Hong Kong Stephen Chow or mainland Xu Zheng, "Kung Fu", "The Legend of Martial Arts", etc. In the program, Li Chengru did not shy away from saying"Wulin Gaiden" is just a replica of Hong Kong’s nonsense.There is also a lack of disapproval of the exaggeration and nonsense of Stephen Chow’s comedy-style mainstays.

Speaking of Xu Zheng’s embarrassing series a few years ago, it can be seen that he agrees with Xu Zheng’s talent, but he feels that a person’s talent will be repeated and similar. It is a pity, so there are no advanced domestic comedies? In fact, it is not the case. In more than ten minutes of comments, Li Chengru expressed his high approval of two comedies, one is "I Love My Home" and the other is "Crazy Stone".

"I Love My Home" is an indoor sitcom that premiered in 1993It has been 27 years since then, and this drama has adopted a realistic and natural and life-like comedy performance form. The background is reform and opening up, focusing on the daily life of an ordinary family in the 1990s. The plot is not dog blood, but uses real lines and natural performances to show down-to-earth trivialities and parents. It is also an absolutely advanced comedy now, and is even called by Li ChengruChamber dramas are out of print.

However, the program also mentions this type ofThe interior drama is not a domestic original, but imitates the more mature comedy form in the United States.(Similar to the soap opera "Bankrupt Sisters"), the post-90s dinner drama "Love Apartment" is also in a similar form.

"Crazy Stone" is a black comedy film released in 2006 and is still aThe boss of crime comedies, Director Ning Hao and Huang Bo are famous. This film has a lot of credit. The film adopts a closed-loop structure with multiple branches in parallel, which is short in time and complicated in events, but it is logical and reasonable. The whole film is shrouded in black humor, which is highly critical of realism. The release has achieved high praise. So far, many directors, including Ning Hao himself, have committed to surpassing it.

In the program, Li Chengru also talked about his very good impression of "Crazy Stone" at that time, but later found that the movie was alsoImported, missing some reality-based colors,He thought it was a sad thing.

The top comedy ideas are foreign, and the comedy movie TOP is not a domestic original comedy that deserves a nameDirector Xu Zheng is also fixed on his own "embarrassing" styleIt’s really sad for comedy.

Some people may argue that we don’t have sketches? In the program, Li Chengru also mentioned that this popular form of comedy is not actually a complete work, it is just a basic course for actors in all walks of life to train themselves. This showsThe gradual decline of domestic comedy is a reality, and it will take a long time for the comedy industry to break through the development obstacles.

Li Chengru bluntly said that among comedies, tragedies, and dramas, comedy is the hardest of all. After all, tragedies can have emotions brewing, while comedies are sudden, and any deliberate will appear very fake. By using the topic of tragedy and comedy, Li Chengru also corrected a misunderstanding that "whether a good crying scene can be performed is the standard that defines whether an actor’s acting is good or not", compared to "crying drama"To be able to act the "laugh scene" really, and to act with infectious power is the real strength.

The difficulty of comedy is to seek truth and image, to present the characters of the real dimension in the play, and to create funny jokes. It is not easy to achieve these two points, but it is indeed the road to success, such as "The Story of the Editorial Department" and "I Love My Home".

"The Life of a Scholar in Drama" tells the story of drama as life. The original intention of its establishment is "I can’t hold back my words, and I am willing to chat with everyone". In just ten minutes, people will gain a lot, and I look forward to more exciting content in the future.

When it comes to new energy vehicles, we can’t help talking about BYD. When it comes to BYD, we can’t help talking about Han EV (parameter picture), because Han EV is the flagship model in BYD cars. Although B-class cars are the traditional weakness of independent brands, Han EV sold 110,000 units last year. Last time, I analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the old Han EV. Not long ago, BYD made a small change to the Han EV in the first round. Have the shortcomings of the Han EV been improved after the change? Have the advantages been retained? Are there any new advantages and disadvantages? Today, let’s take a look at the changed Han EV.

After the change, the high match still highlights the comfort of home.

The positioning of the old Han EV is a little vague, and it is indecisive between the performance car and the family car, which eventually leads to the triple self-contradiction between driving and control, cost and configuration, sense of advanced and sense of movement, which affects the use experience to some extent. However, the new Han EV may have noticed this problem because of some subtle changes in its naming method.

The flagship version of the old Han EV is called "Four-wheel Drive High Performance Edition", which highlights the performance, while the new one is changed to "Four-wheel Drive Privilege Type", which highlights the privilege. This shows that BYD has set the tone in the general direction, even if it is a four-wheel drive, even if the acceleration of 100 kilometers takes only 3.9 seconds, the positioning of Han EV is still home, and the sense of advanced is the temperament it wants to present, not the performance. In the past, I always saw people discussing how to control the Han EV and how to run laps on the track. If the word "high performance" caused misunderstanding to everyone before, then the "exclusive" after the change completely eliminated this misunderstanding. Let’s take a look at what changes it has made to this end.

The biggest change in the interior is the seat.

The biggest change in appearance is the taillight shape, which has changed from the original dumbbell shape to the arch shape. This is also the easiest way to distinguish between the old and new models. If you change the model, there must always be a place where you can see the difference at a glance, otherwise you will be lonely. The biggest change in the interior is that it provides an integrated sports seat. Maybe you will say, didn’t you take the home route? Why did you change it into an integrated seat? In fact, as long as you have experienced it, you will understand that its biggest feature is to improve comfort, because it optimizes the support on both sides of the waist and thighs and reduces the hardness of filling, so it is softer and more wrapped. BYD’s sports seat is more comfortable, which is also reflected in models such as Yuan PLUS and Song PLUS.

The cruising range has increased slightly.

The old Han EV has a long battery life of 605 kilometers and a four-wheel drive version of 550 kilometers, while the modified version has a long battery life of 715 kilometers and a four-wheel drive version of 610. Although the book number is 60-110 kilometers more, the actual upgrade may be discounted, because the old one uses the NEDC test method and the modified one uses CLTC, which has a little more moisture under high-speed conditions. However, the battery capacity is indeed larger, from the original 64.8 and 76.9 kWh to 85.4 kWh, and the whole system comes standard with heat pump air conditioning, and the power consumption per 100 kilometers has dropped by about 0.5 kWh, which is really conducive to increasing the cruising range.

The power limit has not changed, and the driving experience has improved.

In fact, the power limit of Han EV has not changed. Although the power of the front motor has increased by 17 kilowatts, the vehicle weight has also increased by 80 kilograms, and the ratio of horsepower to vehicle weight has not changed much, so the acceleration of 100 kilometers is still 7.9 seconds for two-wheel drive and 3.9 seconds for four-wheel drive. However, after my test drive, I found that its power output characteristics have changed obviously.

The old driving modes are only Eco and Sport, not to mention Sport mode. Even the pedal adjustment of ECO mode is radical, and it is not easy to control the ride comfort. There is a Normal mode in the modified model. In order to understand it, I describe it this way, that is, the current Sport mode is still the previous Sport mode, and there is no change. The new Normal mode is the previous Eco, and the current Eco is the previous Eco soft version, which means that the adjustable range of power style is wider, the upper limit has not changed, and the lower limit has become softer. If it is a daily driving in the city, the Eco mode is the first to be promoted, which can solve the problem of abrupt acceleration on the old model.

Four-wheel drive version introduces active electromagnetic suspension.

Because the old Han EV always wants to take into account the sports attributes, there is a problem that the suspension is hard, which is also criticized by many old car owners. The most resolute place to optimize the change is the suspension adjustment. First, it filters the fine pavement more thoroughly and is more stable on the potholes. Second, the four-wheel drive version introduces an active electromagnetic suspension system, which can adjust the damping of the rear axle according to the vibration feedback of the front axle to reduce the vibration of the rear axle, and can also customize the hardness of the suspension. Active suspension used to be a configuration that can only be seen in high-end luxury cars. In order to improve the chassis texture, Han EV was willing to use such a powerful drug in a small change. I really didn’t expect it, which shows how determined Han EV is. Of course, there are some regrets. Only the four-wheel drive version can enjoy the hardware upgrade, while the two-wheel drive version is optimized by tuning.

Car stuck disappeared.

The most obvious change in the redesigned configuration is the car system, which has been upgraded from DiLink3.0 to 4.0 supporting 5G, and synchronized with BYD’s latest car. Therefore, the jams that many people complained about before have disappeared, and the UI and screen brightness have also been improved. The instrument can also support the display of navigation maps, and the head-up display has been added. These are all functions that can quickly improve the driving sense.

In addition, the new model also comes standard with Dana audio. Although I can’t tell the difference with my appreciation level, Dana’s logo is really eye-catching.

Driving assistance undercooked

In addition, the intelligent driver assistance system has added some functions, such as the automatic lane change function of HWA, etc. However, I have tried many times, and the probability of failure is high, and the accuracy needs to be improved. The original ADAS functions have not changed much in the use experience, and the feeling is still a little less interesting than that of the new forces.

After the change, the product orientation of Han EV becomes very clear, that is, it further strengthens the household attribute and weakens the performance attribute. The three major contradictions of the old model have not been seen this time, but those structural-related shortcomings have remained, such as too large turning radius and too small trunk volume, which may not be solved until the big replacement. As for the new problems, there are some, mainly focusing on the newly added ADAS functions, and the experience has not reached the standard of "easy to use". I always think that it is meaningful to make the configuration of domestic cars big and not at all, but to do little but fine.

Generally speaking, after the change, the positioning of Han EV is higher, and the positioning is higher rather than simply referring to higher prices. There is a difference between the two. Higher positioning is not a disadvantage, which is necessary for Han EV to further enter the mid-to high-end market, but at the same time, it will also lose part of the original market, but fortunately, the old low-profile models are still on sale, which is another choice for Han EV fans. These are my comments on the modified EV, and I will follow up on the test drive experience of Han DM-i and DM-p later.

　　If you tell an American that "pickup trucks are life-oriented", he must be surprised, because pickup trucks were born to provide the greatest convenience for life and business, and they are life-oriented. In fact, however, the value of pickup trucks in China has been underestimated. Most domestic pickup trucks are regarded as commercial vehicles or special vehicles, which are far away from the lives of ordinary users. This market environment also causes the vacancy of domestic passenger pickup trucks.

　　Until the appearance of the Great Wall Gun, it redefined the domestic pickup truck. In terms of products and services, Great Wall Gun has subverted users’ traditional cognition of pickup trucks. More importantly, in the past year, the Great Wall Gun has continuously led the life of full-scene pickup trucks and successfully made domestic pickup trucks "live". So, how did the Great Wall Gun do it?

　　"Life-oriented" can not be separated from the users of the Great Wall Gun, and there are many deep players in all circles, which also brings vitality and diversity to the "life-oriented pickup truck". Take the Che Youhui with the Great Wall Gun — — As far as the "Artillery Alliance" is concerned, some people exchange cross-country experiences, while others discuss fishing skills. Some car owners meet for weekends and go riding in the mountains, and some team up to participate in cross-country running competitions. Deep players from various outdoor fields gather in the circle of Great Wall Artillery, which is also a rare phenomenon in the whole industry, and this team has been growing continuously.

　　With the establishment of the "Artillery Alliance" in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Lujin, Heilongjiang, Henan, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui and Shanghai provinces, Guangdong, Guangxi, Qiongmin, Hunan and Jiangxi provinces, the chemical reaction of cross-border car play continues to penetrate. At the same time, the "APP with guns" was launched, and through the four attributes of "social", "off-road", "game" and "intelligence", it created a pickup truck experience for car owners without going offline for 24 hours. Online and offline amphibious force, Great Wall Gun builds a fair and just communication platform for riders, and jointly unlocks the life of the ultimate full-scene pickup truck, making playing pickup trucks a trend.

　　"Life-oriented" can’t be separated from the circle. In 2020, the Great Wall Gun will cross-border eight outdoor interest circles, including cross-country, cycling, luya, motorcycle and camping, to create a full-scene pickup truck life. In the past year, the cross-border of the Great Wall Gun has never stopped. Help the locomotive culture festival, tour the city with 100 locomotives, and interpret the collision between pickup trucks and locomotive culture; The strength helps cycling around Miyun Reservoir, flying freely around the reservoir with cycling enthusiasts, and leading the "4+2" new lifestyle; Escort the Himalayan extreme cross-country running, stage an outdoor drama with boundless cross-country, and realize the perfect integration of pickup life culture and cross-country running culture. This series of activities has gathered deep players in various fields and regarded the Great Wall Gun as the first car in outdoor life.

　　At the just-concluded 2020 Great Wall Gun Luya International Championship-Luya Pioneer Professional Tour Finals, nearly 100 Luya rowing boats, champions of various sub-races and nearly 200 top Luya masters drove the Great Wall Gun off-road pickup truck with a million-class off-road configuration to drag Luya boats and get rid of the terrain restrictions. The Great Wall Gun brand and Luya spirit are perfectly integrated to create a top-level event in the fishing circle. The Great Wall Gun proves to people that pickup trucks can be used for living and specialization.

　　"Life-oriented" is inseparable from the brewing of any culture supported by sales volume, and it must be based on a certain amount. Great Wall Cannon can promote the development of pickup culture and life in China, and it can’t be separated from excellent sales results. As of October, the statistics show that the sales volume of Great Wall Gun has exceeded 10,000 for six consecutive months, ranking first in pickup truck sales. On October 26th, the 100th Great Wall Gun rolled off the assembly line in Chongqing factory, only one year before the first one rolled off the assembly line. The Great Wall Cannon constantly sets its own record with "Great Wall Speed", making it a phenomenal product.

　　"Life-oriented" can not be separated from strong product strength. When we explore the reasons behind the life-oriented phenomenon of pickup trucks, we will eventually return to product strength. Co-creation by users, cooperation in circles and sales support are nothing more than a result of the strong products of Great Wall Gun. When the first model of Great Wall Gun was released, it created a number of industry firsts. Including it is the first domestic pickup truck equipped with 8AT gearbox, the first domestic pickup truck equipped with L2 automatic driving, and the first domestic pickup truck with multi-link rear suspension. In terms of product strength, Great Wall Gun took the lead in defining the appearance of the next generation pickup truck, and opened the era of multi-purpose passenger use of pickup truck 3.0.

　　Subsequently, the Great Wall Gun off-road pickup truck went on the market, which was an unprecedented combination of 11 top off-road configurations, such as three locks, crawling mode and tank U-turn, and became the first all-terrain mass-produced off-road pickup truck in China, which once again shocked the pickup truck market in China. Up to now, the Great Wall Gun has opened up three sub-categories of markets, including passenger, commercial and off-road, and developed N-type modified vehicles, bringing the potential of unlimited modification of pickup trucks to the extreme.

　　"Life-oriented" New Starting Point Releases Brand-new User Strategy At this Guangzhou International Auto Show, Great Wall Gun released a brand-new user strategy, announcing that it will take users as the center and join hands with users to build a co-creation, co-construction and sharing Internet user ecosystem. The specific contents include: let users participate in the product co-creation of the whole life cycle in all directions, not only the concept, shape and name, but also the peripheral products that users like; With the concept of fully upgraded digital user service, the APP+ artillery alliance motorists’ club will build China pickup culture base camp and grow together with users, making pickup a life, an attitude and a spirit; Let every user have the opportunity to become a shareholder of Great Wall pickup truck, crowdfunding cars and sharing dividends; Open up cross-border circles such as modification and outdoor, and build a pickup park, so that users can enjoy the life of high-quality pickup trucks. Through co-creation, co-construction and sharing, Great Wall Gun will better "play together" with users and "live" pickup trucks to the end.

　　The status of the industry is unshakable. 200,000 sales go global.

　　To sum up, Great Wall Gun firmly occupies the leading position in the industry in terms of product strength, cultural circle and sales performance, and constantly sets standards for the industry in terms of brand value and service system. The outstanding performance of Great Wall Cannon also helped the global sales of Great Wall pickup trucks to exceed 200,000 vehicles in 2020, and the global cumulative users reached 1.8 million vehicles, once again pulling domestic pickup trucks to an unprecedented new height. In the period of great changes in the automobile market, the annual sales volume of 200,000 Great Wall pickup trucks has brought more profound influence to the whole industry. With the help of the rising brand, Great Wall Gun has entered the global market, and has taken the lead in listing in Australia, opening up the global territory for pickup trucks in China, ranking among the top three in the world!

It is worth mentioning that the seventh-generation BMW 7 Series will no longer distinguish between the standard axis and the long wheelbase, and there is only one specification of the long wheelbase.

　　Even M760 is electrified. Don’t be surprised, this is the general trend at present, and AMG next door is also electrified in various ways. Although the displacement is no longer bluffing, the "breaking 100" ability of 4.3 seconds is scary enough for the flagship car, and the top rich have to be environmentally friendly.

◆ New Honda Accord e:PHEV

　　The new Honda Accord e:PHEV debuted, powered by a plug-in hybrid system consisting of a 2.0L engine and a motor, with a pure electric cruising range of 82km and a comprehensive fuel consumption of 4.88L/100km.

　　Looking at the appearance, the front face of the new car continues Honda’s latest family face, and the hexagonal front air intake grille is very representative. The interior is decorated in a grid shape, and the slender headlights on both sides are connected with it, which widens the visual effect of the front of the car with the penetrating surrounding below. As a plug-in hybrid model, its brand LOGO has also added blue elements to highlight its identity.

　　Coming to the side, the new car shows a younger gas field with a large-angle sliding back shape, and its charging interface is located at the fender of the main driving side. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4980/1860/1450mm, the wheelbase is 2830mm and the rim size is 18 inches.

　　In the rear part, the new car adopts a through taillight group design, and the taillights on both sides have good recognition after lighting. In addition, the new car also adopts a hidden exhaust design, and the two sides of the rear enclosure are decorated with imitation diffusers to enhance the sense of movement, and it is also equipped with a spoiler.

　　Coming into the car, as a reference, the overall central control layout of the new Accord is also a familiar family-style design style. The biggest highlight is the 12.3-inch floating central control screen, which is the largest screen in Honda’s history. The latest Honda Connect 4.0 will also appear, which will support the interconnection of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto phones and OTA upgrades. In addition, the new car is also equipped with Honda SENSING driver assistance system, 12-speaker Bose audio and 10.2-inch full LCD instrument panel.

◆ Edit comments

　　There is no doubt about the product quality of Accord itself, and it has always been a model that can be bought with eyes closed. However, the new plug-in hybrid Accord has a small pit, and the power battery occupies part of the space in the trunk. Consumers who have a hard demand for space must actually experience it.

◆ Chuanqi E9
Time to market: May

　　Chuanqi E9 officially opened for pre-sale.The new car has launched three models, and the pre-sale price range is 330,000-390,000 yuan.Chuanqi E9 is equipped with the latest generation of smart electricity technology of Guangzhou Automobile Chuanqi, and the battery electric control electric drive is combined with a 2.0T hybrid special engine. As the first model of Guangzhou Automobile Chuanqi brand to fully open the era of "electrification+intelligence" dual-core strategy 2.0, it is also the first product of Chuanqi smart electricity hybrid landing, Chuanqi E9, which is the pioneering work of Chuanqi E series. E stands for electrification and intelligence; 9, reflecting the high-end flagship status.

　　In terms of appearance, the design of Chuanqi M8 Master Series can be said to have reached a very high level, and E9 is built on this basis, but it adopts a new design theme of "Kunpeng Winging", and the horizontal layout and wing headlights really have the momentum of spreading wings. In detail, there are six horizontal grilles on the front face, two upper and lower ornaments, plus a light strip across the light group, and five vertical light strips on one side, which is the honor of the Ninth Five-Year Plan. Then this kind of horizontal spoke has a feeling of borderless design. Without that kind of figurative big mouth, it has a new energy temperament.

　　When we came to the side, it was basically the outline modeling of the M8 Master Series. The surrounding of the side skirt changed in detail, and then the obvious change was the chrome trim on the upper edge of the window. E9 was modeled at the back, and there was no downward turning, so it was completely the modeling of the suspended roof visually, and the whole window felt like a whole piece. The rear of the car is consistent with the M8. I believe everyone will be shocked by its domineering when they see this "dimension door" taillight, and the small places that change will be surrounded by it, which will be more concise and neat.

　　In terms of interior decoration, the layout is stable and dignified, and the materials are rich enough. Then E9 also provides a variety of styles and colors, the elegance of "Yunshan Zhushui" and the romance of "Opera Hall". There are three screens in the front row of Chuanqi E9, including 12.3-inch combined driving control instrument +14.6-inch large floating central control screen +12.3-inch passenger entertainment screen. Under the combination of ADiGO system and Yamaha audio, it has rich applications and pleasant sound quality.

　　For the most important second row, the screen has to be arranged, with a 15.6-inch independent audio-visual system, and then the most distinguished reminder of MPV is the seat, semi-aniline high-grade leather fabric, various electric adjustments, "one-button SPA" mode massage function, and headrest sound. Just enjoy it.

　　Chuanqi E9, as a new plug-in hybrid product of Guangzhou Automobile Chuanqi MPV family, is equipped with a self-developed 2.0TM hybrid engine, a GMC 400 hybrid gearbox and a 25kW·h battery pack. The comprehensive battery life of WLTC is over 1,000 km, the fuel consumption of WLTC is 6.05L per 100 km, and the acceleration time of 0-100km/h is 8.8 seconds.

　　The 2.0T hybrid engine has a maximum power of 140kW, a maximum torque of 330N·m, and a maximum thermal efficiency of 40.23%. It also has many advanced technologies. In fact, compared with many hybrid engines, the 2.0T engine is mainly 1.5T, which is obviously more fierce. Then GMC 400 hybrid special gearbox adopts the second generation GMC(P1+2AT+P3) scheme, and the two-speed DHT can also give better consideration to low-speed and high-speed working conditions, and the power and energy consumption are better.

　　Then, in the battery part, GAC’s magazine battery is safe enough, and the battery life of 25kW·h is 106KM under WLTC working condition. Of course, this battery life is quite satisfactory, but the electric function is comprehensive, and it supports fast charging, slow charging and external discharging functions, so the use of electrical equipment and outdoor power consumption scenarios can satisfy you.

◆ Edit comments

　　The battle of high-end new energy MPV started last year, and Lantu FREE, Tengshi D9 and Extreme Krypton 009 all earned enough attention. Today, besides Chuanqi E9, the protagonist of this article, there are several heavy products coming soon, including the brand-new MPV of the Great Wall and the ideal W01. The middle and high-end MPV market, which was originally a stagnant pool, can be instantly rolled up to a certain height.

The tail of the new car will be equipped with a penetrating taillight design, and the internal structure of the taillight is very distinctive.

◆ Edit comment:

　　As a brand-new compact SUV under Chery brand, the car focuses on "light off-road", so we can see that the overall design of the car is very domineering, with a square "face" and a stronger sporty atmosphere.

　　Range Rover Star Vein is positioned as a medium-sized SUV, and the current price is more overlapping with the higher-level medium-sized and large-sized SUVs, so its competitors have changed, such as Volvo XC90, BMW X5 and Audi Q7, etc., which will form a certain competitive relationship with Range Rover Star Vein. In the medium-sized SUV market, Porsche Macan, which has better performance in terms of brand and awareness, is an unavoidable opponent for new cars. Of course, in order to better meet the market demand, a hybrid version of the configuration was introduced this time, but at present, the official has not announced its specific parameters, and we will continue to pay attention. Generally speaking, the changes and adjustments in all aspects of the new model show good sincerity. Are you satisfied with it?

◆ Write to the end

　　It can be seen that the new cars at this Shanghai Auto Show are still very interesting. For example, the booths of brands such as Wangwang U8, Xingtu Eta Ursae Majoris C-DM and Gaoshan DHT-PHEV were packed on the day of launch. At the same time, the new Lexus LM has attracted many powerful consumers to become its potential users. Of course, BMW’s brand-new 7-series M760Le, new Honda Accord e:PHEV and other models have also gained a lot of attention as evergreen trees in the car world. These new cars will be put on the market soon, and I believe everyone can see them in 4S shops or exhibition halls. These are the hybrid models that will be listed at the 2023 Shanghai Auto Show. Which model do you like? Or is there any car you are concerned about that is not reflected in the article? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area for interaction.

January’s collective street beating is still in sight. Did the new forces of building cars return to blood in February?

On March 1st, the February sales data of new car-making forces arrived as scheduled. The leader is still ideal, with the delivery volume of 16,620 vehicles in February, up 97.5% year-on-year, and 1,479 vehicles more than last month. After the setback in January, Weilai also returned to 10,000 vehicles, with a delivery volume of 12,157 vehicles, up 98.3% year-on-year. The delivery volume in Tucki was less than 10,000, with only 6,010 vehicles, which was still down year-on-year, but increased by 15% compared with last month.

The momentum of the second echelon is also very strong. Nezha delivered 10,073 vehicles in February, and the last time Nezha delivered 10,000 vehicles in a month was last November. 3,198 vehicles were delivered at zero run and 5,455 vehicles were delivered at extreme krypton.

It is still in the off-season, and it is still too early to discuss the momentum and follow-up actions of the new forces that build cars. However, there are several changes worthy of attention: First, the subsidies of new energy countries have been withdrawn this year, which is a big test for new forces. Whether they can maintain the growth trend, or at least not to fall behind, depends on the ability of each family. Second, influenced by the "price butcher" Tesla, "Wei Xiaoli" has made price reduction adjustments this year, and it is necessary to observe whether the market pays the bill.

The main players are temporarily out of the sales gloom in January, and the car circle is still lively. Tucki P7 is revised, and the ideal L7 is about to be delivered. Wei Laiqing’s "866" and "775" are about to stir up the beams, and Weimar’s chicken feathers have not been cleaned yet. It is conceivable that there will be many variables to happen in the future, and the new forces should also set a plate and what trump cards they have.

The ideal is "close to the ideal" and Tucki is "unable to fly"

As usual, let’s name the new forces first.

The sales crown in February was ideal, with a delivery volume of 16,620 vehicles. In the same period last year, the ideal delivery of 8414 vehicles has doubled. The second place was Weilai, which delivered 12,157 vehicles. This month, Nezha returned to 10,000 vehicles and delivered 10,073 vehicles, winning the third place.

Tucki still didn’t run, and only 6,010 vehicles were delivered in February. As of the time of publication, the official of the press has not announced the delivery volume in February. According to the production and sales express of Sailis Group, the sales volume of Sailis cars (including AITO series) in February was 3,505. 5455 vehicles were delivered in Krypton and 3198 vehicles were delivered in Zero Run.

Cartography/deep combustion

In February this year, both Weilai and Ideality achieved a year-on-year increase of nearly 100%, and only Tucki was slightly embarrassed, with a year-on-year decrease of 3.45%. In the second half of last year, the state of Tucki was very general, and it went down all the way from August to November. In 2023, it seems that Tucki hasn’t recovered in the first two months.

These days, when the ideal sits on the pin crown, it looks very stable. The situation in January is quite special. With the Spring Festival holiday and the withdrawal of subsidies from new energy countries, the monthly performance of new car-making forces is relatively low, and only ideals have maintained a momentum of over 10,000. In February, although it was still in the off-season of sales of new energy vehicles, it kept the trend of rising delivery volume, with 1,479 vehicles more than last month.

Weilai’s delivery in February increased by 42.92% month-on-month, and the surge in delivery was probably related to its inventory clearance activities in that month. Now, only a few old models ES8, ES6 and EC6 are on sale, and "866" is about to bid farewell to the historical stage. It is "775", that is, ET7, ES7 and ET5.

The delivery data in February also shows how well the handover of "866" and "775" has been done. In January, Weilai sold 2,190 SUVs (ES7, ES6, EC6 and ES8), accounting for 25.75% of the total delivery, and 6,316 cars (ET5 and ET7), accounting for 74.25% of the total delivery. It can be seen that SUVs including "866" old models are not the main sales force, and the proportion of SUVs and cars is not small.

Looking at the situation in February, 5037 SUVs and 7120 cars were delivered. The delivery of SUVs accounted for 41.43% of the total delivery, and cars accounted for 58.57%. The proportion of SUVs increased significantly. It seems that "866" sold well.

Next, the first echelon also has key nodes that need to be tested. Ideal L7 was officially launched on February 8th, and it is the first 5-seat version of the ideal vehicle. According to the news, Pro and Max models will be delivered one after another on March 1, and Air models will be delivered one after another in early April. The results of the new car will not be seen until the delivery data in March and April. This time is well timed. After a part is delivered in March, the sales volume in the first quarter may be guaranteed. After another delivery in April, the beginning of the second quarter is also a "good start".

In March, the redesigned Tucki P7 will enter the market under the new name P7i. The arrival of the new P7 is very important for Tucki to fight a "turnaround". According to the news, the new car has been upgraded with lidar, and Tucki is still willing to invest in the auxiliary driving of new energy vehicles. And Tucki’s ability in intelligence is also the reason why the outside world still has confidence in it.

Nezha desperately wants to squeeze into the top three. In February, Nezha’s report card was not bad. According to the official, Nezha S recorded 2,048 sets in February, up 35% from January, accounting for about 20% of the total sales in that month. From the perspective of total delivery, the year-on-year and month-on-month increases were 41.5% and 67.4% respectively, and the trend of blood return was obvious.

Nezha’s record in February, to a certain extent, can also be confirmed, and its price increase has passed smoothly. In January, Nezha raised the prices of some models, with Nezha S, Nezha U-II and Nezha V each increasing by 3,000-6,000 yuan, with Nezha S having the highest price after adjustment, ranging from 202,800-341,800 yuan.

The reason for the price increase is that Nezha wants to hit the market upward.

Last July, Nezha became the top seller of new cars for the first time, and it also held the first place from August to November. However, compared with others, only from Nezha’s own situation, the delivery volume in October was 18,016 vehicles. Since then, the monthly delivery data has been falling all the way, even falling out of the 10,000-vehicle mark. Last December, everyone did well, but only 7,795 vehicles were sold in Nezha, down 48% from the previous month.

In January this year, the monthly delivery volume of Nezha was the lowest in the past year, with 6,016 vehicles. After four months of continuous decline, the outside world began to suspect that Nezha’s hot wheels was no longer useful. Nezha’s style of play has always kept a big gap with "Wei Xiaoli". "Wei Xiaoli" occupies the mass market of 100,000-300,000 yuan, and the middle and high-end market of 300,000-500,000 yuan. Nezha has targeted the low-end market from the beginning, focusing on models below 200,000 yuan. The exchange of price for quantity has indeed brought about the rapid growth of Nezha, and it is not surprising to reach the top.

However, the fatigue in delivery means that it is difficult for this strategy to push Nezha further. Price increase is a risky move, but "seeking wealth and risk".

In the second echelon, another thing worthy of attention is the zero run. In February, Zero Run and Tucki were the only car companies that saw a year-on-year decline in sales. In January of this year, the delivery volume of zero-running was only 1139, which was the bottom of the month. Compared with January 2022, it plummeted by nearly 80%. In February, 3,198 vehicles were delivered at zero speed, which is still far from 10,000 vehicles.

In February, the run-by-run C11 extended-range version officially opened for pre-sale, with the pre-sale range of 159,800-200,000 yuan, and will be delivered in mid-March. In the face of weak sales for several months in a row, the zero-run may have to open the market by increasing the program.

The growth rate of krypton is second only to zero run. In February, 5,455 vehicles were delivered, an increase of 87.07%. Krypton once triumphed all the way, once surpassing Tucki. After jumping on the street with various families in January, its recovery situation in February was relatively clear. However, the "hidden worry" of extreme krypton is hard to ignore. Recently, there have been a lot of controversies about "extremely Kryptonian car owners", "non-refundable orders" and "two-faced". It remains to be seen whether the crisis in public opinion will affect the momentum of extremely Kryptonian.

Lantiu and Wenjie are the only car companies with a month-on-month decline. Lantu delivered only 1,107 vehicles, compared with 1,548 vehicles last month. The sales volume of the industry was 3,505 vehicles, a decrease of 21.68% from the previous month.

Weimar is still invisible. Employees leave their jobs without pay, factories shut down, suppliers cut off their supply, and there is no door after sale. These may be issues that Weimar should be more worried about. On February 27th, according to the staff of the Labor and Social Security Supervision Bureau of Huanggang Municipal Bureau of Human Resources and Social Security, the Municipal Labor and Social Security Supervision Bureau and the Municipal Department of Human Resources and Social Security have set up a special class to intervene in this matter and are accepting the rights protection of Weimar employees.

The state of several second echelon can be divided into two categories. One is Nezha and Zero Run, both of which showed fatigue in the past period of time and picked up in February. The other is extreme krypton, Lan Tu and Wen Jie, who walk slowly in small steps, but at the same time walk carefully.

As early as before each company announced its sales volume, some insiders predicted that the delivery volume would probably increase in the off-season this year. The reason is obvious, the price has been reduced, and the volume has gone.

The biggest strength is Wei Lai. According to the limited-time preferential car purchase plan released by Weilai’s official community in February, in February 2023, users who bought 2022 ES8, ES6 and EC6, that is, the old model "866", Weilai covered the state subsidy in 2022. It is understood that the "866" model is no longer customized, so it is also stated in the plan that only a small number of 2022 ES8, ES6 and EC6 long-term exhibition cars can be purchased by users, and they can enjoy additional exhibition discounts according to different storage ages and vehicle conditions. Users who purchase ES8 exhibition cars can enjoy a maximum cash discount of 24,000 yuan, while users who purchase ES6 and EC6 exhibition cars can enjoy a maximum discount of 18,000 yuan.

Weilai’s price reduction has also received a response from Qin Lihong, president of Weilai. It is rumored that Weilai will reduce the price by 100,000 yuan, but Qin Lihong said that in fact, there are very few models with a total discount of 100,000 yuan. He also explained that the price reduction of "866" is because Weilai is clearing the first-generation model and preparing for the "866" model of the second-generation platform.

Weilai’s decline is about 20,000 yuan, and the situation in Tucki is similar. On January 17th, Xpeng Motors lowered the prices of G3i, P5 and P7, with an overall decrease of 20,000-36,000 yuan. Since February, Tucki has given an insurance subsidy of 7,000 yuan and a final payment subsidy of 10,000 yuan for specific models, and the maximum discount is nearly 50,000 yuan.

Weilai, who once shouted that he would not cut prices, can’t hold back now? In fact, it is normal for the new and old models to alternate, and it is normal to reduce prices and promote sales because of clearing inventory. From the perspective of Weilai’s strategy, it is reasonable to hand over the "866" to the next generation.

In addition, a necessary prerequisite for the replacement of old and new cars is that old cars can’t be sold. Take Weilai as an example, the sales of the three models of "866" all dropped by 1,000 units in January this year. EC6 bid farewell to four figures from last September, and the last one was ES6, which delivered 872 vehicles in January this year and 1,731 vehicles in December last year. Not surprisingly, the sales of the "866" three cars have also continued to decline in the past six months. In the case of the overall cold of the new energy vehicle market, the "775" all showed a downward trend after November last year. It is necessary to complete the handover drastically at this moment.

There is also room for cost reduction. The price of lithium carbonate, the main raw material of batteries, began to fall in December last year. At present, the price of battery-grade lithium carbonate is less than 400,000/ton. Last year, the highest point was close to 600,000/ton, and now it has dropped by 30%. Some analysts believe that the sales market of new energy vehicles is sluggish at the beginning of this year, the demand for batteries is weak, and the finished product inventory of lithium salt manufacturers is also at a high level, which is cold in the market. In the future, under the influence of the weak price of lithium carbonate, the price of spodumene may also fall further.

Looking back at the industry, new forces have cut prices one after another, and it is difficult to get rid of Tesla, the "price butcher". Recently, it was reported that Tesla may usher in a new round of price cuts in March, with Model 3 dropping to 159,900 and Model Y dropping to 179,900. There is another saying that Model 3 dropped to 199,000. The news has not yet received a response from Tesla.

Two facts are in front of us. First, the rumors of Tesla’s price reduction are probably not groundless. According to its consistent style, price reduction is not only a habitual action, but even a downward trend. Second, the price reduction of Tesla and the price reduction of the new domestic car-making forces are interactive. Tesla gradually approached the price band of the new forces, and the new forces had to cut prices to deal with it.

The industry believes that whether the new energy vehicle market can rebound depends on the situation in the second quarter.

Indeed, the ideal L7 is about to be delivered, and Tucki on hot bricks will also have its own "trump card upgrade", ending the embarrassing situation of being green and yellow, and accepting the market challenge again. Weilai has completed the new generation and the old generation, and the sales data in February also prove that this decision is right and it has been completed well. Next, it is necessary to rely on "775" to conquer the world.

Extreme Krypton, Lan Tu and Wen Jie belong to cumulative players. If there are no big moves, there is a high probability that they will make a steady breakthrough under the general trend. Nezha and Zero Run have gone the same difficult road, becoming high-end and brand-building. As for the result, there should be an answer in the next few months. Of course, the outside world is also waiting for an answer, and there is a silent Weimar.

　　In this era when products and services need to be recognized by users at the same time, how to break the circle by circling users is almost a difficult problem faced by all traditional car-making enterprises, especially when we have seen the new forces of car-making moving towards the broad road. For me, it seems that I have found a way to tie pure electric genes, intelligent genes and young genes into the brand, and at the same time pave the way for a series of car scenes that may happen in the future. And this method is the brand of pure electric vehicle newly released by Geely, and it plans to open up a new track to win this era.

　　In fact, no matter how much doubt you still have about this brand, as long as the product is hard enough, the user’s mind can be overheated instantly. If the extremely complex ecological circle is to radiate our entire travel and life in the future, so that this brand can meet the competition of the times with more vitality, then for us at present, it may be only this newly released (|) that needs attention. I don’t know what you think. After the press conference, Krypton opened the reservation at 21:00 that day, and my circle of friends was already screened by the reservation information at that time.

　　Although the Krypton 001 at the press conference is only a test car, the actual production version will change in the future, but since everyone is so concerned about this car, why don’t we quench our thirst under limited conditions first, and interested friends can follow me down.

　　The 7kW-22kW home charging service in the "at home" scenario, the worry-free charging service for valet charging and mobile tram charging in the "emergency" state will naturally be available. At the same time, Krypton will also complete the construction of 2,800 charging piles and 290 charging stations in 2021.

　　

Since former design director Iger joined us, our Dynasty series models have become the spokesmen of high value. Recently, the driving sight learned from the official that the new Qin fuel version will be officially unveiled at the Chengdu Auto Show, which opened in September this year. The new car is built on the all-engine and all-power platform under BNA architecture, and its appearance continues the Dragon Face design language. In terms of power, the new car adopts the power combination of 1.5L+CVT, and meets the national six emission standards.

In terms of appearance, the new car continues the Dragon Face design language, and the hexagonal large mouth net is organically combined with four three-dimensional lines on the hood, which has a strong impact. The array LED headlights on both sides of the front of the car are standard equipment in the whole system, and the lighting effect with a sense of science and technology is very eye-catching. On the whole, take the front face as an example. Compared with the old Qin, it really looks a lot better, and it still has a little taste.

In terms of interior, the new car adopts an embracing cockpit layout and takes a simple scientific and technological route. The highlight of the new car interior is the 10.1-inch 8-core self-adaptive rotating suspension central control panel, equipped with a car-mounted multimedia system, which provides rich online entertainment functions. In addition, the new car is also equipped with a flat-bottomed multi-function steering wheel, which adds a sense of movement, and its seat is more sporty, and double stitching design is added to enhance the texture.

In terms of power, the new car will be equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 80kW and a peak torque of 148N·m, which meets the national six emission standards. In terms of transmission system, the new car matches CVT from Wan Liyang.
