Seeing that the 11th Golden Week is coming, various brands are scrambling to release new models, lest they miss the last opportunity to sell cars this year. This, just past September 22, in Chongqing Ecological Island – Guangyang Island officially opened the global pre-sale, according to the car review agency, the pre-sale price of Changan Qiyuan E07 is 249,900 yuan, and enjoy certain limited-time rights.

In fact, when it comes to Changan Qiyuan E07, the design concept and product positioning of this car are quite interesting. It is claimed to be the world’s first mass-produced variable SUV. Like Tesla’s Cybertruck, it is the only mass-produced model in the world equipped with a central ring network architecture. Let’s follow the car review agency’s perspective and take a look at this car.

In terms of appearance, the design of Changan Qiyuan E07 is quite sci-fi, especially the light strip on the front of the car, which has a sense of sight like a galaxy battleship. The overall back-running design makes most young people feel too cyberpunk when they see this shape. And this car can also open the trunk in sections like Tesla’s Cybertruck, making it easier and more flexible to pick up and carry items. The length of more than 5 meters, as well as the leading 3120mm wheelbase in the same class, plus the width of 1996mm and the height of 1695mm make the whole car full of momentum.

Although the interior design is not particularly complex, it can still give a very textured design style and interior materials as a whole. Moreover, the voice interaction system of Changan Qiyuan E07 can give the occupants more convenience. It can not only be used to solve all the control functions in the car, but also can perform voice lane change and voice acceleration and deceleration. In this way, you can basically just move your mouth and not do it. In addition, in terms of comfort, Changan Qiyuan E07 is equipped with double front-row zero-gravity seats with leg supports as standard, which directly fills the comfort experience. Moreover, the seat ventilation, heating, and massage are also equipped in the front and rear rows, focusing on a front and rear row with equal rights.

The Changan Qiyuan E07 series comes standard with an 800V silicon carbide AI platinum power platform, equipped with a 440kW high-efficiency drive motor, which can output a maximum torque of 645N · m. The measured 100-kilometer acceleration only takes 3.96 seconds. This acceleration result, even if the supercar is coming, it is difficult to get out of the whole body, right? Moreover, the curb weight of this car is 2.4 tons, but the measured 100-kilometer braking distance is less than 36 meters. This result is definitely enough, right? In addition, the extended range version of the model is equipped with the latest generation of Changan Tianyu intelligent extended range platform independently developed by Changan Full Stack. Noise control is also its highlight, which can also solve mileage anxiety.

In terms of the chassis, Changan Qiyuan E07 is also trying its best to fill it up. The air suspension system + CDC intelligent magic carpet suspension has the functions of adjustable suspension height and hardness, which can offset the vibration and impact of the road as much as possible. At the same time, it can also ensure the movement of its suspension, which can be hard or soft, to solve the contradiction between your motion control and comfort.

Car review observation:

In terms of product positioning, the Changan Qiyuan E07 is a bit niche, but the overall performance is very much in line with the needs of most people. It can be said that the Changan Qiyuan E07 is a car that can make people stand out, and there are not even any direct competitors on the market. However, the starting price of the Changan Qiyuan E07 is also relatively high. Competing at this price sometimes requires a little luck, so do you think this car can achieve a good sales result?

[Rider Toutiao – Rider Number – Threesome Car] When independent brands have launched high-end brands, such as the launch of WEY by the Great Wall and Lynk & Co by Geely, why hasn’t Chery, the big brother of the independent brand, had this plan yet?

It may be that the release of the Xingtu brand strategy is not very timely. It was not until 2018 that Chery slowly brought the new Xingtu brand, but at this time, the domestic high-end SUV market had already been seized by WEY and Lynk & Co., and at this time, Xingtu seemed to have entered the encirclement and suppression of the two powers.

Looking back at the sales of Xingtu Automobile in 2020, it has to be admitted that Chery’s move towards high-end Xingtu brand has not been very successful this year. According to relevant data, a total of 15,724 sales data have been handed over from January to November this year. Although there are not enough models (currently only two models under its umbrella), but if you look at Lynk & Co and WEY, not only is the product line rich, but also the sales volume has already left Xingtu behind.

Of course, Xingtu was born relatively late, but if you look at the same brand – Chery Jietu, it still handed over a sales report of 102,799 new cars in January-November. And it is worth noting that Jietu normally only has two models on sale, namely Jietu X70 and X90.

Therefore, the high-end of Xingtu is still a long way from success.

However, the upward path is never smooth, and perhaps after some experience, the rainbow is not far from the mountain.

And the road to brand upward often requires a model that can represent the strength of the brand, which is the "brand flagship" as the saying goes. WEY has VV7, Lynk & Co has 05, and Xingtu has "Moon"!

On January 7, 2021, Xingtu’s flagship SUV-Xingtu VX 390T model (2.0T) was officially rolled off the assembly line, and the pre-sale price was announced on the spot. The pre-sale price range was 19-230,000 yuan; at the same time, the new car was officially named "Lanyue". Previously, the 290T model (1.6T) started pre-sale, and the pre-sale price was 17.00-18 0 yuan. According to official news, the new car will be officially launched in mid-March 2021.

In fact, as early as the 2020 Beijing Auto Show, the Lanyue, the flagship model of Xingtu, had already been unveiled. It was based on the Xingtu M3X Mars architecture and was the first model equipped with Chery’s latest technological achievement 2.0TGDI engine. Its allure can be imagined.

In terms of overall appearance, Xingtu Lanyue continues the design style of the VX concept car unveiled at the 2019 Guangzhou Auto Show, with a visual atmosphere, refinement, and a perfect reflection of the fashion sense that young consumers like.

In terms of size, the car’s length, width and height are 4970/1940/1795mm, with a wheelbase of 2900mm, which is larger than Tiguan L, Qijun, and Outlander. The seats are arranged in a 2 + 3 + 2 layout, and the spatial experience is also very worth looking forward to.

In terms of interior, the center console of the new car uses a large number of banner lines, which is full of layering. At the same time, the instrument panel and central control screen also use a connected screen design, which is very technological. The built-in Lion 4.0 Lion Zhiyun system can support Apple CarPlay, automatic speech recognition and other functions, and there is also AR real navigation function.

In terms of configuration, the new car will be equipped with full LED headlights, keyless entry, keyless start, smart start and stop, dual 12.3-inch through-type high definition LCD screen, electronic shift, CN95 antibacterial air conditioner filter, car WIFI, remote start, smart home interconnection, mobile phone interconnection, ACC adaptive cruise, lane departure warning and other functions.

Of course, as the flagship model of Xingtu Lanyue, the biggest highlight is its latest Chery 2.0TGDI (390T) engine, which is Chery’s latest technological achievement. Xingtu Lanyue is also the first model to be equipped with this engine. Its maximum output power is 261 horsepower, maximum torque is 400 Nm, and thermal efficiency is 37.6%. This is a good result in China.

The launch of the 2.0T version of Lanyue is also another test of Chery’s engine technology. After all, the 1.6T engine performed well on the Chery Tiggo 8 and Xingtu LX before. But considering the size of Lanyue, it is still very sincere to configure a 2.0T.

Write at the end: As Chery Xingtu, which launched a high-end brand among the top three independent brands, has a long way to go. Past data is just a pave for future medals. And this time with the launch of the flagship model – the medium and large 7-seat SUV Lanyue, and the debut of more products in the future, its upward road has been slowly coming.

The guide price 21.99-28 9,900 yuan, and the most popular SUV new car Avita 07 was officially listed in September.

As the blockbuster new car of the year 2024, the Avita 07 carries too many expectations.

On the product itself, Avita 07 really did not disappoint, the future aesthetic original design is very forward-looking, the golden ratio of the body shape of the wind resistance performance is good, the natural inspiration of the five kinds of paint texture outstanding, multi-screen linkage of the surrounded cockpit both luxury and sense of technology, Kunlun Extended Range Technology quiet industry-leading, Taihang chassis solid and comfortable sports, Hongmeng cockpit + Huawei intelligent driving like a tiger, the British treasure 7.1.4 panoramic sound speaker is the icing on the cake, Avita 07 This car itself can be said to be worthy of tens of thousands of followers.

But there is no doubt that the pricing of Avita 07 has clearly failed to respond to the eager expectations of some tower fans and quasi-tower fans for months.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that the starting price of Avita 07 is too high. The picture shows that the car still feels that the starting price of Avita 07 is in line with expectations, but the corresponding configuration does not match the price very well, resulting in the entire car series configuration looking rather awkward.

Take the extended range version of Avita 07 as an example.

Avita 07 Extended Range Edition launched a total of 3 configuration models, Pro version guide price 219,900 yuan, Max version guide price 239,900 yuan, Ultra four-wheel drive version guide price 279,900 yuan.

The Pro version and the Max version are 20,000 different, what is the difference? The picture shows that the car probably pulled the configuration table, mainly missing the optical ambient light flow/rhythm mode, intelligent fragrance system, 9 speakers and Huawei ADS 3.0 high-order intelligent driving system These items, and according to the configuration price of Huawei ADS 3.0 high-order intelligent driving system, the difference between the Pro version and the Max version is really not much, and the price difference 20,000 is not outrageous. If the price difference is reduced to 10,000, more people may pay.

But the price difference of 40,000 yuan between the Max version and the Ultra version is somewhat confusing. This 40,000 price difference in hardware is as follows: 131kW front motor, air suspension + CDC electromagnetic vibration damping, rear privacy glass, rear seat ventilation/massage, 21-inch sports multi-spoke wheels, 265/45 R21 Continental EC7 silent tire.

Then the Ultra version can be added with an optional optical technology package (HALO interactive screen, ultra-clear electronic external rearview mirror, double 6.7-inch high definition rearview screen, intelligent welcome motion graphics outside the car), while the Max version is not optional.

In all fairness, the price difference between the Max version and the Ultra version of 40,000 yuan is quite large, the rear privacy glass and the rear seat ventilation/massage are not much money, 20/21 inch tires are Continental EC7 silent tires, 4 tires The price difference is only 800 yuan, so this 40,000 can basically be regarded as the price of 131kW motor and air suspension + CDC electromagnetic vibration damping, is this reasonable?

According to the figure, Avita 07 Extended Range Edition needs to push the Max version of the 239,900 yuan, but the Max version is worse than the four-wheel drive system, the price of the 239,900 yuan Extended Range Rear Drive is higher, if 225,900 the basic pre-order explosive, 22.99 can also be accepted, or the ideal configuration should be the Max version of 239,900 yuan plus a front motor upgraded to the Extended Range Four-wheel Drive version, air suspension + CDC electromagnetic vibration reduction as an optional configuration. But change the hardware, it is difficult.

The price of the Ultra extended range four-wheel drive version of 279,900 yuan also seems to be slightly higher, but it can be configured through the standard air suspension + CDC electromagnetic vibration reduction, rear privacy glass, rear seat ventilation/massage, 21-inch sports multi-spoke wheel hub, 265/45 R21 Continental EC7 silent tire, ultra-clear electronic external rearview mirror, double 6.7-inch high definition rear view screen and Max version to open the ladder difference.

In this case, the price system of Avita 07 Extended Range Edition is much more reasonable. The 219,900 Pro rear drive version is mainly used to lower the starting price, while providing some low-budget users with the opportunity to get on the bus.

And the 239,900 yuan Max four-wheel drive version is bound to be the main sales model, Huawei ADS 3.0 high-end intelligent driving + 25 Yang British treasure audio this set is still very good, put the same level to go completely not cowardly, and then Ultra four-wheel drive version is mainly for users with higher requirements to provide personalized choice.

Of course, now the Avita 07 has been officially launched, and the two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive are quite poor in terms of mechanical layout, and the difficulty of modifying the promotional materials is not small, and the cost of modifying the version configuration is too high. And referring to several new cars re-released by friends, after the re-release, sales are still on the street, so the choice left to Avita 07 is to reduce the price. Of course, these still depend on the data of Dading, and it cannot be ruled out that there are many people who pay the bill. After a night of mental struggles, there are also many people who compromise.

It’s not that there is no such thing as an overnight price reduction for a new car. A while ago, a medium and large sedan next door was too popular to unsubscribe after it went on the market, and then the price was reduced overnight. Of course, the price adjustment is not obvious, but by modifying the rights and interests to adjust. But Avita’s optional package is still relatively special. The three optional packages currently provided can be said to be irrelevant. Even if you take it out and give it away, it will not increase much attractiveness. It is puzzling that the more attractive air suspension + CDC electromagnetic vibration absorption has not been taken out as an optional package.

If the air suspension + CDC electromagnetic vibration damping is taken out as a comfortable optional package and then given to the Max version for a limited time, and then a 2,000 yuan deduction for the last 12,000 yuan, then the 239,900 yuan range extension Max actually has a lot of explosive potential. Of course, this is a bit wishful thinking, which is also inappropriate, and car companies also need to make money.

The price reduction of the Pro version is quite troublesome. The configuration and price of the Pro version are very embarrassing. Medium-sized extended-range SUV, single-motor rear drive, 39-degree lithium iron phosphate, Huawei dry + ADS SE visual smart drive… If I guess, I must be the first to think of the dark blue S07 285Max dry + smart drive version, right? And the CLTC pure electric battery life of the dark blue S07 is even better, 285 kilometers.

The guide price of the dark blue S07 285Max smart driving version is 191,900 yuan (the guide price after equity is 181,900 yuan), so this makes the Avita 07 Extended Range Pro version very embarrassing, you say drop 20,000, then 199,900 yuan is not and the dark blue S07 285Max smart driving version played together? If you drop 10,000, 209,900 yuan is still not enough to see, the 25 Yang British treasure to the Pro version can also be considered.

To sum up, the figure said that the car believes that the configuration of the Avita 07 extended range version is too difficult and too late. The most realistic option is to quickly modify the price equity, which is estimated to increase the data of Dading.

Again, it depends on Dading’s data. What if there are a lot of people buying?

In addition, the 2020 Jaguar F-PACE Range Rover Evoque Customized Edition, the 2020 Range Rover Sport Edition and the Range Rover 50th Anniversary SV Collector’s Edition have been unveiled one after another, among which, the 2020 Jaguar F-PACE launched a total of 4 models, the price range is 475,800 – 787,800 yuan; 2020 Range Rover Sport launched a total of 4 models, the price range is 864,800 – 1.103 million yuan; 2020 Land Rover SV models launched a total of 3 models, the price range is 1.838 million yuan – 3.213 million yuan.

It is worth noting that, as a young joint venture, Chery Jaguar Land Rover once welcomed 200,000 vehicles off the production line in only 43 months, creating a new speed of luxury car manufacturing, and once sold in China second only to the German luxury three. However, with the domestic auto market suffering a cold snap, Jaguar Land Rover also ushered in the most difficult time in China.

However, just as everything has its pros and cons, setbacks and challenges have given Jaguar Land Rover the opportunity to fully introspect and adjust. Zhu Hengli, executive vice president of Jaguar Land Rover China and Chery Jaguar Land Rover joint market sales and service organization, also admitted in an interview with surging news reporters that the overall performance of the automobile market in recent years has been relatively just passable. This year, Jaguar Land Rover does face many challenges, but Jaguar Land Rover has achieved good results through effective adjustments.

The vice president of Jaguar Land Rover’s sales organization in the Chinese market started to enter the automotive industry in 1994. Before that, at Ford and Lincoln, he was mainly responsible for behind-the-scenes work, including the construction of the dealer network, sales planning and customer experience. It is based on this work record that in an exclusive interview with him, it can be seen that he attaches great importance to the channel and is determined to reshape.

"First of all, we have strengthened communication with dealers, optimized the process, and simplified the previously cumbersome and restrictive requirements and methods, so that dealers can understand the rhythm and plans of Jaguar Land Rover this year at a glance. Secondly, we cooperate with dealers to carry out marketing activities, such as Land Rover’s new Yunnan-Tibet line, Jaguar’s Saigan Carnival and other innovative experience marketing activities, forming a linkage from the central to the region, enhancing consumers’ awareness of Jaguar Land Rover in all aspects, and expanding brand influence." Zhu Hengli told reporters that in response to the current market situation, Jaguar Land Rover is vigorously carrying out dealer training. Not only can it improve the efficiency of staff, but also reduce the attrition rate of personnel, and also improve the business ability of frontline personnel through training.

In order to implement the adjustment policy as soon as possible, Jaguar Land Rover is expediting in-depth communication with every dealer in China. At present, Zhu Hengli has personally gone into battle to communicate with all dealers in Shanghai one by one, evaluate the overall profitability of dealers, and provide support and assistance to different dealers based on the results.

In addition to channel remodeling, as a distinctive British luxury car brand, Jaguar Land Rover is also committed to accurately delivering its brand concept to Chinese consumers.

In terms of brand marketing activities, as of mid-August, the "Jaguar Circuit Carnival" event has held more than 100 events in 73 cities, with more than 25,000 participants; the "Land Rover All-Terrain Academy x Land Rover All-Terrain Driving Camp" event has held 240 events as of the end of August, covering a total of 134 cities, with a total of more than 8,500 participants. The start of these activities has deepened Chinese consumers’ awareness of Jaguar Land Rover’s brand power.

In addition, according to Zhu Hengli, Jaguar Land Rover is also constantly incorporating the needs and preferences of Chinese consumers into the design and development of its products. For example, Chinese consumers have relatively high requirements for rear space, so Jaguar’s cars are generally designed to be lengthened. But for Jaguar, the lengthened wheelbase cannot affect the vehicle’s handling performance, so for example, the XEL car has more rear space, but the handling performance and driving texture are no different from those of the British XE model.

"The same is true for Land Rover. At the beginning of the launch of the new generation of Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, considering that young consumers in China are more concerned about smart and high-tech configurations, because we specially launched models with different configurations for the Chinese market. This is also one of the changes made for the Chinese market." Zhu Hengli said.

Thanks to Jaguar Land Rover’s self-adjustment, the market has given positive feedback to the British luxury car brand after entering the second half of the year. Data show that Jaguar Land Rover’s sales rose by 40% year-on-year in July, 17% year-on-year in August, and 28% year-on-year in July-August. More importantly, Jaguar Land Rover’s dealers also improved their profitability by 10% year-on-year in July-August and maintained reasonable inventory.

Not only that, but next, Jaguar Land Rover will also increase its product offensive. According to the plan, Jaguar Land Rover expects to usher in 30 product updates by the end of 2021. Among them, in addition to the new Jaguar XEL, which will be launched within the year, a new generation of Discovery will be launched in the first quarter of next year, and a new generation of Defenders will be introduced in the second quarter.

And when it comes to electrification, Jaguar Land Rover is not at a disadvantage. Last year, Jaguar Land Rover launched the Range Rover Sport PHEV model. At the press conference of the Chengdu Auto Show, the Range Rover Sport also launched the annual model. At the same time, the new generation of Range Rover Evoque is also equipped with a 48V mild hybrid system. Jaguar released the first pure electric luxury SUV model last year, the Jaguar I-PACE. In fact, Jaguar Land Rover has already announced that from 2020, every model will be available in electrified models.

In the case of the overall domestic car market environment being cold, Jaguar Land Rover was still able to achieve two consecutive months of growth, which is enough to highlight the "true ability" of counterattacking the trend. I believe that Jaguar Land Rover NIO will also burst out stronger stamina.
