Starting from 149,800 yuan, the brand-new Fenglanda leads the new wave of electric mixing.

The new energy vehicle market is full of flowers, and all kinds of new cars "you can sing and I will debut". But in terms of brand strength, a brand that can stand the test of time can truly show its "heroic nature."

In the hundred years when the automobile industry has been in a sea of waves, countless brands have been "washed out by waves", leaving some brands with real car-making background and user thinking. Perhaps some consumers will think: what kind of ability do century-old international brands have in electrification strategy?

Take Toyota as an example, this century-old Japanese brand has 26 years of experience in electrification accumulation, and its hybrid models are also selling well over 20 million vehicles worldwide.

Today, Toyota Motor has brought more quality hybrid products to users through the joint venture company GAC Toyota. Perhaps this model just solves the "stereotype" of some consumers about the lack of electrification reserves of joint venture brands.

With the application of the fifth generation intelligent electric hybrid dual-engine technology, the technology accumulation achieves reliable quality.

As mentioned above, Toyota’s electrification technology is not "fledgling", but has accumulated technology for many years. Toyota’s new energy vehicle has been running for 26 years since the first generation of electric hybrid technology appeared. At the beginning of the 21st century, Toyota’s electric hybrid technology has been introduced into China by GAC Toyota through Camry.

Mr. Zhang, the owner of the car, told Shell Finance that the old Camry twin-engine was very reliable. It had been used for 12 years and the driving mileage exceeded 100,000 kilometers, but there was still no fault in battery technology and hybrid system.

Nowadays, the intelligent electric hybrid dual-engine technology has been innovated to the fifth generation, and it has been quickly carried in Lei Ling and Fenglanda, the core products of GAC Toyota, and both products have attracted a lot of attention from consumers. In the future, more models of GAC Toyota will also popularize this technology. This not only demonstrates the determination of GAC Toyota to continue to promote electrification development, but also shows the full confidence of enterprises in their own electric hybrid technology.

At the Shanghai Auto Show, the Fenglanda model equipped with the fifth-generation intelligent electric hybrid twin-engine technology has been officially launched, and the product price range is 149,800 yuan-184,800 yuan.

For the fifth-generation intelligent electric hybrid dual-engine technology carried by Flanders, there are more technological innovations than before. The two core innovations are full-speed domain support for motor intervention and more gratifying fuel consumption performance.

According to the official information released, the fifth-generation intelligent electric hybrid dual-engine technology has realized the innovation and upgrading of the three-electric system, providing different motor power in the full-speed domain, which not only allows the vehicle to get the experience comparable to that of pure electric vehicles when accelerating, but also lasts longer in the latter part of acceleration.

In terms of power, Fenglanda is the first to take a 2.0L fifth-generation intelligent electric hybrid twin engine, with a maximum output of 144 kW and a maximum horsepower of nearly 200 horsepower, making the power output more sensitive and powerful.

The fifth-generation intelligent electric hybrid twin-engine that does not need to be plugged in has no fear of extreme environments such as extreme cold and heat, and there will be no worries about battery pack recharge when it brings high-quality driving experience. In terms of fuel consumption, the fuel consumption of this entry-level SUV under WLTC condition is only 4.57 liters /100 kilometers.

With the reliable accumulation of historical experience, brand-new intelligent, efficient and refreshing product experience, and worry-free vehicle conditions, GAC Toyota gave the answer that "you can have your cake and eat it" on the road of embracing carbon neutrality.

Feng Landa’s entry is high and accurate.L3Level driving assistance experience becomes a brand label

In the past, joint venture brands often hesitated when buying a car because of "insufficient configuration of low-middle models". However, as a pioneer, GAC Toyota has broken the pain point of this industry and even surpassed some independent brands that win by "configuration".

As the first SUV model of GAC Toyota equipped with the fifth-generation intelligent electric hybrid twin-engine technology, Fenglanda not only has high-quality power system, higher-level auxiliary driving system and other technologies, but also makes this entry-level SUV shine.

The Fenglanda intelligent electric hybrid twin-engine comes standard with 28 high-value configurations, such as 7 airbags, intelligent keyless entry system and high-level assisted driving (quasi-L3 level), which all show the sincerity of the brand to embrace intelligence and adhere to user safety.

As a joint venture brand, GAC Toyota is making every effort to promote intelligent changes and bring users reliable assisted driving functions and high-quality intelligent cockpit experience.

It is reported that the Fenglanda intelligent electric hybrid twin engine is equipped with the leading T-Pilot intelligent driving assistance system at the same level, and has achieved the standard of the whole system.

The system relies on hardware and software upgrade, which can avoid 41% fatal driving scenarios. Compared with competing products, Fenglanda’s active driver assistance technology has four main characteristics: maturity, comprehensiveness, originality and low threshold, which gives Fenglanda leapfrog active safety performance.

GAC Toyota’s quasi-L3 level assisted driving technology stems from Toyota’s accumulation in the global automobile market. The technology aims at "zero error", relies on Toyota’s global user big data, is developed based on 12.5 billion kilometers of intelligent driving zero accident data, and has the world’s first PDA and EDSS systems, which can improve driving safety and reduce driving burden in more complex road conditions. Furthermore, vehicles can also support OTA upgrades, which are often used frequently.

Specifically, two "pioneering technologies" applied by GAC Toyota are PDA predictive active driving assistance system and EDSS emergency driving stop system. The former can slow down or brake pedestrians, bicycles or cars passing laterally at a long distance at a speed of 30-80km/h, no matter what weather (rain, snow, sunny day, cloudy day, etc.). If collision is unavoidable, it can actively turn to 0.5m in the opposite direction of the object to avoid over-approaching.

In the latter case, if the system determines that the driver can’t continue driving because of fatigue or acute illness, the vehicle will automatically slow down. When the driver is still not operated after continuous warning, the system can automatically slow down and stop in the lane, and turn on the double flash to wait for rescue.

It is worth mentioning that GAC Toyota has launched the slogan of "equal rights in science and technology" while the whole system comes standard with assisted driving functions. With the support of this concept, GAC Toyota will gradually bring high-level assisted driving functions to its products.

A number of configuration upgrades to create an intelligent cockpit and embrace young users.

In addition to the improvement of vehicle intelligence and the innovation of entry configuration, GAC Toyota has also made many upgrades in the field of intelligent cockpit. Fenglanda intelligent electric hybrid twin engine is equipped with Toyota’s latest Toyota Space intelligent cockpit and Toyota Connect intelligent interconnection technology. Among them, dual big screens, three smart platforms, mobile phone interconnection, digital keys and other functions bring a number of leapfrog intelligent configurations, and the experience is comparable to that of a luxury brand SUV with a level of 300,000.

Specifically, the Fenglanda intelligent electric hybrid twin engine adopts the car-level car chip from Renesas, one of the top 10 semiconductor companies in the world, and its LCD instrument panel is 12.3 inches in size, providing four styles and three interface designs, which can be linked with the central control panel.

The central control screen is a 10.25-inch touch screen, and users can control the air conditioning, ambient lights, doors and windows of the vehicle by touch. Yes, this entry-level joint venture SUV also provides consumers with small eggs like atmosphere lights. Of course, users can also communicate with vehicles by voice, set wake-up words, and perform voice control on windows, skylights, air conditioners, playing music, navigation and WeChat. Getting on WeChat is also one of the few technologies in the industry. It can be seen that GAC Toyota has made efforts in the field of intelligence. It can be said that GAC Toyota is a pioneer of joint venture brands to bring smart, young and convenient experiences to consumers.

It is reported that the voice assistant does not need to wait from wake-up to instruction, and the system can continue to listen for 30 seconds after one wake-up and can continue the conversation. The language supports input and output of Mandarin and Cantonese, and supports mixed input of Chinese and English.

In addition to intelligence, Fenglanda intelligent electric hybrid twin engine is also sincere in other aspects. In terms of appearance, the vehicle has many choices of appearance. Up to 11 body colors are available, including 4 two-color bodies, and sports versions are also available.

Although it is an entry-level SUV, the space performance of Fenglanda is not too good. The height of the rear row of the vehicle reaches 980 mm, and it is designed with adjustable angle of two rows of chairs and raised doorframes to achieve better ride comfort.

In addition, the vehicle also has the front and rear row Type-C interfaces, automatic folding exterior rearview mirror with heating function, S-FLOW intelligent airflow control function, nanoe?X air purification technology and other leapfrog configurations.

GAC Toyota is relying on its own heritage and sincerity to the market to create products that stir the intelligent track. This entry-level intelligent electric hybrid SUV is the sincerity of the enterprise. From the new car, we can’t help feeling that GAC Toyota is no longer a brand that users can rest assured after buying it, and is no longer linked with enterprises. It is a brand based on quality, embracing the new era, leading the trend, creating and growing together with users.

tagNowadays, it is difficult for us to give an answer whether the joint venture brand is out of date under the wave of electrification and intelligence. However, we know that GAC Toyota, a brand with rich heritage and creativity, not only has not fallen behind, but also continues to show its strong brand strength in the new era while adhering to quality. Whether intelligent or electrified, enterprises are constantly innovating and even leading the times.

At Toyota booth of Shanghai Auto Show, bZ brand-new concept car also made its debut, which will be the second bZ series model of GAC Toyota to accelerate the expansion of pure electric product matrix after bZ4X.

It is reported that this new car will be jointly developed by Guangzhou Automobile Group, Toyota and Guangzhou Automobile Toyota, demonstrating the strong combination of Toyota technology and Guangzhou Automobile technology in localization application.

This model is expected to be introduced in 2024. The official of GAC Toyota said that in the future, GAC Toyota will further open up cooperation, actively promote on-site research and development, continue to practice the electrification strategy, and make full use of the resources of both shareholders to electrify and bring high-value pure electric vehicles to users.

GAC Toyota, which is so sincere, believes that it can not only win users through the fifth-generation intelligent electric hybrid twin-engine and quasi-L3-class assisted driving, but also its electric vehicle products are worth looking forward to.

Russia expressed its willingness to talk to the United States on strategic stability.

  Xinhua News Agency, Moscow, November 8 (Reporter Geng Pengyu) Russian Presidential Press Secretary peskov said on the 8th that Russia is willing to hold a dialogue with the United States on the issue of strategic stability, but it can’t be conducted in the form of preaching from one side to the other.

  Peskov said that there is no prerequisite for dialogue on this topic at present, but it is necessary to hold such a dialogue.

  Russia completed all the procedures for withdrawing from the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe at 0: 00 on November 7. On May 29th this year, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on abolishing the Treaty.

  The Russian Foreign Ministry commented on the 7th that Finland’s formal accession to NATO and NATO’s promotion of Sweden’s admission as a new member were the "last straw" to force Russia to withdraw from the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe, and Russia could not see the possibility of concluding an agreement with NATO countries in the field of arms control.

  In response to Russia’s formal withdrawal from the Treaty, NATO announced on the 7th that it would suspend its participation in the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe.

  In 1990, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and Warsaw Treaty Organization (Warsaw Pact) signed the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe. The treaty stipulates the total amount of various conventional weapons of the two major military groups and the methods of verification. After the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact and the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe summit in 1999 adopted the Agreement on Adaptation of the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe, and Russia ratified it in 2004, but NATO members have never ratified it. With the continuous eastward expansion of NATO, Russia suspended the implementation of the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe in 2007.

Ministry of Culture: 19 webcast platforms were investigated for violating laws and regulations.

  Jinghua Times News (Reporter Jia Ting Meng Fanze) Yesterday morning, the reporter learned from the press conference of the Ministry of Culture that 19 webcasting platforms, such as Betta and Huya, were included in the list of illegal and illegal Internet cultural activities because they were suspected of containing obscenity and violence. Liu Qiang, deputy director of the Cultural Market Department of the Ministry of Culture, said that a blacklist system will be established for online platforms and anchors that repeatedly violate the rules, and credit punishment will be imposed, and business activities of violators will be prohibited or restricted.

  19 penalty results will be announced in time.

  Liu Qiang, deputy director of the Cultural Market Department of the Ministry of Culture, said that there are two main types of violations in the webcast platform investigated this time. One is that the live broadcast platform for performing arts provides online performances that promote obscenity, pornography and harm social morality. Some "anchors" sexually tease and hint through body and language, and there are violations such as "flashing" and "teasing" to win the audience’s attention and attract the audience to pay for virtual gifts, which is vulgar and indecent and has a bad social impact. Furthermore, the game live broadcast platform provides the game content display with gambling, violence and abetting crime, such as the live broadcast of gangster-themed games "Grand Theft Auto (GTA)5" and "Dragon 0", etc., with bloody pictures and abetting crime, and the live broadcast of illegal game "Zha Jinhua", etc., which promotes gambling behavior and violates social public order and good customs.

  Therefore, in order to standardize the operation order of Internet cultural market such as online performances, the Ministry of Culture issued the 25th batch of investigation list of illegal Internet cultural activities, and 19 online live broadcast platforms such as Betta, Tiger Tooth Live, YY, Panda TV, Battle Flag TV, Dragon Ball Live, Liujianfang and 9158 were included in the investigation list for allegedly providing Internet cultural products that promote obscenity, violence, instigate crimes and endanger social morality.

  Liu Qiang introduced that the webcasting platform listed in the investigation list has clear violation facts and sufficient evidence. The live broadcasting platform involved in the case should actively cooperate with the investigation, and should strictly abide by the Interim Provisions on the Administration of Internet Culture and strictly implement the responsibility of content self-examination. The Ministry of Culture has deployed comprehensive law enforcement agencies in relevant regional cultural markets to investigate and deal with the enterprises involved in the case according to law, and announced the punishment results in a timely manner.

  Violation of the "anchor" will be blacklisted

  Liu Qiang introduced that in the next step, the Ministry of Culture will focus on establishing a long-term management mechanism, and plan to introduce policies to strengthen the management of online performances, and standardize the key links of online performances in terms of management of business entities and post-event supervision.

  In addition, a warning list and blacklist system for illegal webcasting platforms and illegal "anchors" will be established, and the behaviors of webcasting platforms and "anchors" will be restrained through the credit punishment mechanism to strengthen industry self-discipline. For anchors who repeatedly violate the rules, the platform will be required not to accept them for anchor business; For live broadcast platforms that repeatedly violate the rules, it is possible to stop providing their content.

  Liu Qiang said that the current popular mobile APP is not an extra-legal place. It is similar in content and form to the webcast platform and will be included in the management process.

  > > enterprise response

  We will continue to improve the platform supervision mechanism.

  Companies including Betta TV, Tiger Tooth Live, 9158, YY, etc. all responded that they will actively cooperate with the actions of relevant state departments, strengthen the audit management of the platform, and jointly purify the network environment.

  Betta TV said that yesterday morning, Betta and a number of peers participated in the forum of network culture business units organized by the Ministry of Culture, listened to the publicity and management requirements of laws and regulations, and jointly discussed the development norms of the industry. Betta hopes to provide users with quality live broadcast service through its own efforts.

  Huya Live also said that it will always adhere to a positive and healthy operation idea, resist vulgar content, resolutely support and cooperate with the actions of relevant state departments, and call on peers to jointly safeguard the green environment of the industry and promote the healthy development of the industry.

  Tiange Group, which belongs to 9158, responded that this time it was notified by the Ministry of Culture that individual anchors in the platform had performed vulgar performances, and the group had closed the rooms and anchors in time.

  "The results announced by the Ministry of Culture today are a wake-up call for us and the whole industry, which will enable all platforms in the industry to continue to strengthen the supervision of their own platforms and more effectively promote the sound development of the live broadcast industry." Tiange Group said that they will invest more manpower, material resources and financial resources, continue to strengthen the monitoring and management of the platform, and have the confidence to do a better job in platform supervision.

  YY Entertainment responded that it will continue to improve the platform supervision mechanism and strictly investigate all kinds of illegal and vulgar live broadcast content. The penalties include closing the live broadcast, titles, confiscation of income and deposits.

  Frequent pornographic incidents on live broadcast platforms

  It is reported that in the past two years, webcasting has rapidly developed into a new Internet culture format, and live broadcast forms such as performing arts live broadcast and game live broadcast have emerged one after another, attracting the attention of a large number of netizens, and the market scale has grown rapidly. According to statistics, the number of users of the webcast platform has reached 200 million, and there are about three or four thousand live broadcast "rooms" online at the same time during the daily peak hours of large-scale live broadcast platforms, and the number of users can reach two or three million.

  At present, there are about 30 enterprises engaged in webcasting in Beijing, and the industry scale is constantly expanding. Since the second half of 2015, obscene and pornographic incidents represented by "live broadcast creating people" have occurred frequently, violating social morality and even gambling and drug-related problems have occurred frequently, and even some enterprises have used this as a means to create gimmicks for financing and listing, and online pornography is facing new challenges. In this context, the Beijing Network Culture Association launched the activity of negotiating a self-discipline convention, taking regulatory measures to solve the problems existing in the current live broadcast platform and implementing the main responsibility.

  The day before yesterday, the heads of more than 20 major enterprises engaged in online performance (live broadcast) such as Baidu, Sina, Sohu and iQiyi jointly issued the "Beijing Webcast Industry Self-discipline Convention", promising that all anchors must be certified in real names from April 18; The webcast room must be marked with watermark; Content storage time is not less than 15 days for future reference; For anchors who broadcast political, gun-related, drug-related, violent and pornographic content, serious cases will be blacklisted.

  Last night, the reporter observed on several live broadcast platforms, such as fighting fish and battle flags, and found that the convention has not been formally implemented, and many platforms have imposed certain restrictions on the performance and dress of the anchor. For example, "it is forbidden to spread vulgar and pornographic pictures, sounds, words, games and video information, causing vulgar interaction in the venue" and "it is forbidden for women to deliberately expose sensitive parts such as cleavage and buttocks". The flag platform also requires the anchor to maintain the order of the live broadcast room and deal with the illegal audience in time. However, in some live broadcast platforms, there are still naked female anchors, and there are also many viewers who leave messages to tease and ask the anchors to "take off their clothes" and "get up and watch their legs".

Looking back on the growth road of Toyota RAV4

  From a concept car pieced together with accessories of other models to an urban leisure SUV that is popular all over the world, RAV4 has created a new history of four-wheel drive, which not only makes the bold idea of "urban leisure SUV" become the development trend of small and medium-sized displacement SUVs at present, but what is more commendable is that it is still the leader in this field after more than ten years of fierce market competition. Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether it was born with Toyota’s unique eye or by mistake. What is important is that it has written a wonderful stroke in the history of automobile development for more than 100 years. Now, let’s go back to 1989, trace its 16-year legendary experience along the growth footprint of RAV4, and expect the upcoming domestic RAV4 to continue its unbeaten legend.




The earliest RAV4

  The first generation RAV 4 (1994-October 2000)



  After Toyota introduced RAV4 in 1994, the history of the 4×4 vehicle market changed. From the briefing in 1986, we got a glimpse of its "shocking" predecessor. By the time the concept model appeared at the Tokyo Motor Show in 1989, this 4×4 off-road vehicle, which later became the trend benchmark, had gone through a long "gestation period". After a thorough makeover, the concept car of RAV4 appeared at the Tokyo Motor Show in 1993. Finally, at the Geneva Motor Show in 1994, the official production version of RAV4 was finally born. It’s worth the long wait.


  Toyota began to sell two versions of RAV4 in Japan in May 1994 (in Britain in June) and soon the sales became very strong. I thought I could sell about 4,500 cars a month, but I received an order for 8,000 cars in the first month, and soon the output doubled.


  RAV4 is equipped with a 2.0-liter 16-valve four-cylinder engine, which was previously used on the second generation CaMry/Carina (Camry/Carina), and can be equipped with a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic transmission. It is equipped with full-time four-wheel drive system and optional central locking differential.


  RAV4′ s compact body, its four-wheel drive, wide track and short front and rear suspension make it have excellent handling performance in any road and weather conditions. All RAV4′ s are designed with safety equipment, which makes them more classified as passenger cars than trucks. Standard safety equipment includes driver’s side airbag, adjustable three-point seat belt and devices to strengthen side collision protection.


  By combining the elements of traditional passenger cars with the characteristics of light off-road vehicles, Toyota called RAV4 a "new concept" SUV. With this RAV4, Toyota and its customers have been able to enter the attractive emerging market of sport utility vehicles.


  In March 1995, the new four-door model was put on the market. The four-door version is 16 inches longer than the two-door version and can take five people. The front seat belt pretensioner was also introduced into the market with the release of the four-door version, and the RAV4 two-door version was also equipped with the system in September 1995.


  RAV4 made its debut in the United States in January 1996, and Toyota also made great improvements to all RAV4 models, including: front double airbags became standard; A high-position rear brake light is introduced; The 2.0-liter 16-valve engine has also been recalibrated to make its emissions cleaner, with less noise and greater torque. Two-wheel drive models were also introduced to the market in 1996, but only front-wheel drive.


  In 1997, RAV4 only made some minor modifications on the original basis of this "revolutionary" product, including changing the seat cover of the two-door model, providing an electric sunroof as an option on the four-door model, and also marking a digital clock and a large front speaker on the electric window model.


  In 1998, RAV4 underwent several major changes. External changes include a new grille, front bumper fascia, multi-reflector headlights and crystal diamond taillights. Internal changes include: newly added digital odometer, double cup holder, three-spoke steering wheel and sound system, and also changed the door panel. The engine power has increased by 7 horsepower. The seat cloth on the four-door model has also been changed. Two soft-top versions of RAV4 were introduced to the market in mid-1998. Based on the two-door version of RAV4, it combines the front hard top with the rear movable soft top.


  In 1999, Toyota provided a perforated leather interior with sports flavor as an option on its RAV4 special edition model, which once again set a good technical standard for small sports utility vehicles. Since that year, the side panels, rearview mirrors and door handles of the same color have been standard on the RAV4 special edition. In addition, three new special edition colors (pearl white, metallic silver and elegant black) have been added as optional.


  In 2000, two soft-top models and two hard-top models were discontinued.


  The second generation RAV 4 (October 2000-September 2005)



  In October 2000, after a thorough redesign, the second generation RAV4 appeared. It is a compact SUV with larger space, stronger off-road performance and wider use. The whole body length, width, height and wheel track of RAV4 have been increased by about one inch or more, respectively, in order to make the interior and exterior space bigger. The shape of the vehicle has been newly designed, which is more aerodynamic and more aggressive. Its power comes from a brand-new 2.0-liter four-cylinder 16-valve DOHC engine, all aluminum, lighter in weight and with intelligent variable valve timing function (VVT-i). With the help of VVT-i function, the vehicle can output 148 horsepower at 6000rpm and 142 fthttps://info.xcar.com.cn/200904/lb. torque at 4000rpm. The second generation RAV4 has been proved to be a low emission vehicle (LEV).


  In September 2001, the British version of the four-wheel drive model added a D-4D diesel engine.



  The 2002 model comes standard with gray painted bumper, scratch strip on the side of the car body and a new spare tire cover. The four-wheel drive version can also be equipped with an externally expanded wheel arch. The basic body color still follows the previous year’s style, but a cool pearl white is added. The "L" model is equipped with a bumper with the same color as the body and a scratch strip on the side of the body. The four-wheel drive version can be equipped with a flared wheel arch.

  The EV3 concept car represents Kia’s vision for the development of a compact pure electric SUV. This car provides users with the technology, practical functions and design of Kia’s flagship SUV EV9 with a compact and convenient structure. Although it is a concept car, the overall shape is very mature.

  From the appearance, the EV3 concept car follows the design style of Kia pure electric vehicle. The whole car is composed of a large number of straight lines, and the iconic "Tiger Roar" front face is not absent. On the side of the car body, the long roof line inclines downward, forming the unique outline of the cockpit. The solid structure of the square wheel arch adopts unconventional design and is cut at an asymmetric angle, which is impressive.

  Kia EV4 concept car

  Compared with EV3 and EV4, the shape of EV4 is more sci-fi. Kia positioned this car as a pure electric coupe, and adopted a more concise and fierce design. A large number of broken lines are used in the front face, and the vertically arranged LED headlamps on both sides are matched with the raised ribs on the engine room cover to create a downward dive posture. In addition, the car also has a two-color wheel eyebrow, a lower enclosure design and a suspended roof.

  As for the interior, EV4 has also studied the family design style, such as hidden air outlet, double spoke steering wheel and double screen. The car has a five-seat layout, and the back seat is a minimalist home style. The overall interior design and appearance form a sharp contrast. In addition, the EV4 also has an SUV-level ground clearance, which the official said can maximize the use of space.

  Editor’s summary: Although Kia pure electric vehicles are not highly exposed in the domestic market, they have a very bright performance overseas. On this "Kia EV Day", in addition to the three cars released, the official also revealed that there will be plans for EV2 models in the future. Kia has also set a plan to achieve an annual sales volume of 1 million electric vehicles in 2026 and 1.6 million by 2030, which is enough to show Kia’s determination to make efforts in the era of pure electric vehicles.

Fully armed test drive Mazda 3 SKYACTIV-X model

  [car home’s original test drive] The protagonist in the martial arts novels has the same life, and he has learned all the magical tricks along the way, so the most anticipated scene is always in the middle of the war, because it is time for the protagonist to show everyone a strong kung fu very smartly. There is no confrontation on today’s stage, but one person’s dazzling skills are also wonderful enough, because you have never seen the martial arts moves used by this protagonist. Let’s welcome a new generation of Mazda 3.

Home of the car

  The new generation Mazda 3 is finally getting closer and closer to us. Yesterday, my colleague introduced all aspects of it to you in detail through video (the video is below). Today, it debuted again, because I brought you the strongest player of the new generation Mazda 3 in Europe, equipped with the new car test drive feeling of Chuangchi Blue Sky -X compression ignition engine. This brand-new engine can be said to be the ultimate weapon of Mazda 3, so let it show its hands quickly.

The following is an explanation video of my colleague who went to Taiwan Province earlier to test drive the new generation Mazda 3 sedan version:

More exciting videos are all on the car home video platform.

■ It is not far from the arrival of domestic models.

  Let’s talk about the domestic models that you are most concerned about. You don’t have to look at the markets that have already sold a new generation of Mazda 3, because the domestic models will come soon, and the official listing time may be in September. Many people should know that the new car will no longer use the name of Angkor Sela. This is Mazda’s new strategy of adopting a globally unified model name. The domestic model is also called Mazda 3, which feels much smoother. However, at the initial stage of the new car, only the sedan version is available, and the power will continue to be equipped with two naturally aspirated engines, 1.5L and 2.0L The hatchback model will be introduced to the market later.

  A new generation of Mazda 3 has been listed in many places, and the power selection is also very rich. There are some models equipped with 1.8L diesel engines, as well as familiar 1.5L and 2.0L gasoline engines. You can even see 2.5L gasoline engines in the American market. Wait, such a rich power configuration, but I just didn’t see the heaviest weapon, the brand-new Chuangchi Blue Sky -X engine. Of course, the long-awaited malicious character will be the finale, and today it finally appeared. Next, starting this autumn, Mazda 3 equipped with Chuangchi Blue Sky -X engine began to deliver cars in Europe and Japan. But when will this model come to us? There is no clear answer from the manufacturer.

● Appearance: sexy sports style

  The new generation Mazda 3 was officially released at the Los Angeles Auto Show at the end of last year, and it has been half a year. Everyone should have some understanding of the appearance of this new car. The reason is very simple, because its design is eye-catching, it has a murderous look like a blade and a sexy figure, so no matter which stage it is on, it can always attract everyone’s attention successfully, and this design is absolutely successful.

  The all-black net makes the whole front of the car serious, and the sense of movement is naturally strong enough. The design of headlights is also fascinating, but from our test drive, the front fog lights are not equipped.

  Although all the hatchback models are contacted this time, the sedan version is the absolute main force in the compact car market with the same price in China. With the sedan body size of the new generation Mazda 3 and the mainstream rival PK, it can be seen that the body length of the new generation Mazda 3 is following the trend, but it has succeeded in showing off in the wheelbase. It would be great if such an advantage can be brought to the actual ride space.

  The reason why the hatchback version has a sexier side is entirely because of the design of the rear of the car. The outline is full and the details are eye-catching, which is really nice.

  The visual effect of the 18-inch all-black rim is naturally excellent, and it is cool in one word. This is definitely a very sporty style. The tire configuration of the test drive is very powerful, and it uses Bridgestone’s Tairan T005A, which has a high positioning, pays more attention to comfort and has outstanding mute performance. Let’s look forward to the tire configuration of domestic models in the future.

  The most deadly thing about the appearance of the new generation Mazda 3 is its sexy line outline, which can be felt especially on the hatchback. Unfortunately, the sedan version will come to us first, but the one that should come will always come, and it definitely has the ability to attract you to see more.

  At the premiere conference held in the afternoon, Eva Huang, who once again challenged the classic image of White Snake, appeared in a pale pink short skirt. However, due to the short skirt, Eva Huang unfortunately ran out frequently. On the red carpet in the evening, Eva Huang changed into a long white dress, and the design of the hollowed-out and carved blouse was very Chinese, which was not only elegant and generous, but also closer to the character "White Snake".

    However, due to the high heel, Eva Huang almost fell down on the red carpet, thanks to LAM Raymond’s help. Eva Huang also praised "lover Xu Xian" at the scene. "LAM Raymond is very handsome, and his eyes will discharge especially!" Eva Huang’s words made LAM Raymond blush and won the screams of fans.

    Bidai Syulan, known as the myth of immortality, also chose a small white dress to appear that night. However, compared with Eva Huang, Bidai Syulan’s dress adopted the design of sloping shoulders and high slits, adding sexy elements. Bidai Syulan appeared with the makeup of red lips, showing off her sweet shoulders and beautiful legs.

Comparative Analysis on the Performance of GS8/GS7 Quoted by GAC Chuanqi GS7


[Phoenix Auto Market Original] Most self-owned brand car companies are keen to launch high-end products that reflect their own strength, but after so many years, they can get very little in the auto market, which is an outstanding representative. It has successfully occupied the 200,000-level SUV market that has discouraged most independent brands, which has really promoted the national brand.


GS8 also has a brother model called GS7. It can be seen from the car name that "7" should be a little lower than "8", but in fact, GS7 is only 8 cm shorter than GS8 in body length and wheelbase, while the body width and height are the same. The rest of the changes will be introduced in this paper.


The first time I saw it was in north american auto show at the beginning of the year. When our leaders introduced the GS7 to the global media in fluent English, my heart was still very excited. It’s not that China brand cars finally entered the United States (north american auto show participated in the exhibition in 2015), but that the GS7 was put in North America at all, and the atmosphere was even more American than some American SUVs, and American consumers could drive their new cars home by 2019 at the latest!

However, friends who like Chuanqi GS7 don’t have to wait until 2019. On August 26th, Chuanqi GS7 will announce its selling price and go public, and its pre-sale price is only 155,800. Referring to the starting price of the GS8 model of 163,800 yuan, the starting price of the GS7 should have a price difference of about 10,000 yuan with the GS8. This is a relatively close situation, which seems to be difficult to choose, but it is a topic between young and 7-seater, that is, the GS7 featuring "big 5-seater" is more affordable and younger, while the GS8 with a minimum allocation of 7 seats will continue to appear as a 7-seater model of Chuanqi.

Younger designs and settings




It is said that Chuanqi GS7 is young, mainly reflected in the design. Although GS7 and GS8 are in the same strain in design, they only shorten the body length by 8 cm, but the oppressive feeling of GS7 is not as obvious as that of GS8. The chrome-plated decoration on the front bumper turns black and restrained a lot, and the cancellation of the suspended rear also reduces some visual pressure, which has the advantage of letting GS7 put down some seriousness.


There is almost no change in the rear of the car. If you want to distinguish the GS7 from the GS8 at the rear, you may only have to pass the tail label. It should also be that GAC is very satisfied with the design of this tail and wants more consumers to feel this American style.


Black is the main tone of the interior.


The keyword "young" is also reflected in the interior. The wooden decorative board that originally ran through the door and center console was replaced by carbon fiber decorative board, and black became the main line in the car. The brown stitching interspersed among them also reflected the grade of details. Obviously, the interior style of GS7 is more popular with young people.


In terms of internal design and functions, GS7 and GS8 are basically the same, and the buttons in all areas are the same. The overall impression is that the functions are complete, such as seat ventilation, interconnection system, parallel auxiliary, panoramic image, large panoramic sunroof, wireless charging and other functions are also available.


It’s as simple as reducing the third row of seats.




Space is the obvious difference between GS7 and GS8, but it is only as simple as reducing the third row of seats. In fact, because the width and height of the car body are the same, the performance of the GS7 in the first row and the second row is similar to that of the GS8. When you sit in the second row, you can obviously feel the spaciousness of the space, not only the legroom and the head space are abundant, but also you won’t feel crowded even if you are full of three passengers.


As for the front row, let’s find the feeling of driving an American SUV, and the head space is very abundant. The seats are also very comfortable, and the feedback of cushions and the texture of leather are quite American-style.


The rear luggage compartment space of the GS7 is similar to that of the GS8 with the third row down. Although it will definitely be slightly smaller, it is still very useful as a whole. There is no problem in putting down two 30-inch suitcases. However, our GS7 without electric tailgate will have a little difficulty in opening the tailgate, which is mainly related to the heavy weight caused by the large size of the door.

Add 1.8T models.


Compared with GS8, GS7 has added 1.8T engine to choose from, mainly to lower the purchase threshold, and the four-wheel drive system is also only available for 2.0T top models. The 1.8T model is named as 280T, that is, the maximum torque is 280 Nm; The 320T model is a 2.0T engine with a maximum torque of 320 Nm. All models of GS7 come standard with 6-speed automatic manual transmission, which is the third generation product of Aisin.


We are driving the 2.0T predecessor version of GS7, which should also be the main choice of consumers. From the overall driving experience, it is similar to GS8. The power output is comfortable and the connection is gentle. Even if the accelerator is stepped deeply, we can feel that the engine is releasing power in a very "stable" state, but "stable" does not mean "slow", which reflects the cleverness of adjustment.


The transmission also provides four driving modes: energy saving, sports, manual and snow. The energy saving mode will restrain the power to a greater extent, while the sports mode will automatically raise the engine speed to more than 2000 rpm, which are also relatively conventional settings.


The feeling of GS7 steering is more direct than that of GS8. It can be reflected in the change of driving trajectory by slightly moving the steering wheel, which is a relatively sporty setting in the same size SUV. Considering the body width of 1910 mm, driving on the road really requires the driver to pay more attention to the steering wheel.


As a large-size SUV model, the GS7 also has the common characteristics of large-size SUVs, that is, the center of gravity is high. GAC Chuanqi said that the suspension of the GS7 has been set to be harder than that of the GS8, but it is actually comfortable, so drivers need to pay attention not to drive too fast when passing through corners, otherwise passengers may feel pressure.


Comfort when driving at high speed is the strength of GS7. Firstly, GS7 has a good driving feeling and is easy to drive. The lower noise level also brings a more advanced comfort experience; The higher body also has a wider field of vision, which also improves the safety of high-speed driving to a certain extent.


Choose 5 seats or 7 seats

Compared with the GS8, the remarkable difference of the GS7 is that it has become five seats, while the interior is younger, the driving is tighter and the suspension is a little more sporty. These are all younger performances. Considering that the price of the GS7 will be lower than that of the GS8, it also means that the GS7 is suitable for young people who are pursuing quality of life, and the GS8 will be more chosen by consumers who have already established their families.
