The Shanghai Auto Show is about to open on April 19, and various brands are gearing up to showcase their latest models, preparing to shine in 2021. Today we will first take stock of several recently very popular models so that everyone can have a quick look at them and quickly lock in their favorite models at the venue.
Ji Krypton 001
Ji Krypton 001 is a self-owned brand model that has attracted a lot of attention recently. It will be pre-ordered at the Shanghai Auto Show and will be officially delivered in the fourth quarter. The Ji Krypton brand is Geely’s latest high-end electric vehicle brand.
From the appearance point of view, the front face of Jikrypton 001 is actually very similar to the Lynk & Co family, but it is actually built using the SEA vast architecture of the new electric vehicle platform and an exclusive high-performance pure electric chassis. The new car is positioned as a mid-to-large crossover coupe. The body dimensions are 4850/1980/1530mm in length, width and height respectively, and the wheelbase is 2999mm.
In fact, the only similarity that can be found is the front face. The entire side and rear of the car body are all new design styles, with a flat and low coupe style and a fastback body. The whole thing looks like The tough style Porsche Panamera. The new car will use frameless doors, and the rear of the car will be equipped with through-type LED taillights, which will have a prominent sense of hierarchy when lit. In terms of power, it will be equipped with a front and rear dual-motor drive system to achieve four-wheel drive, with an acceleration time of less than four seconds from 0 to 100 kilometers. The vehicle has a range of approximately 700 kilometers under NEDC conditions.
The interior design is also a new style. The large floating central control screen is 15.4 inches in size. After all, it focuses on smart high-end electric vehicles, so a sense of technology is essential. The sports three-spoke multi-function steering wheel is paired with an 8.8-inch full LCD instrument panel. This size is not very outstanding at present. In addition, the interior of the car uses more straight lines to outline the interior atmosphere lights. Simple style, with the ultimate, geek spirit.
Mercedes-Benz C-Class
At the Shanghai Auto Show, the latest domestically produced Mercedes-Benz C-Class will make its debut. Moreover, this time the Mercedes-Benz C-Class follows the latest design style of the Mercedes-Benz family. Whether it is the style of the triangular eyes or the lines of the lower surround, they are very similar to the S-Class. This may also be the first time someone said that the younger brother is more handsome than the older brother.
For young consumer groups, there are still many choices in this class, such as the BMW 3 Series and Audi A4L, but from a female perspective, there are indeed many people who choose the Mercedes-Benz C-Class. After all, The monthly sales are there. The exterior appearance and interior luxury feel are indeed better in the same class.
The brand-new appearance is not inconsistent with the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and it even looks more coordinated than the E-Class and S-Class. After all, this design is a young and fashionable style. The large-sized star diamond grille is matched with the triangular eye LED headlight set, surrounded by simple lines, still has a good luxurious atmosphere. And this generation of models has not launched a standard version. You can also think of the reason. Buying the C-Class is not to pursue the ultimate luxury. The standard version is left to the big brother S-Class.
The size of the new generation C-Class has changed significantly. The wheelbase of the overseas standard-axle version is 25 mm longer than the previous generation, reaching 2865 mm. For domestic consumers, this data is still very important. The long-axis version of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class produced in China may exceed 2965 mm. Compared with the more designed front face, the rear style is more simple, and the triangular headlights are still highly recognizable.
The Mercedes-Benz C-Class is also not absent from the brand-new interior design style. In terms of luxury and high-end, Mercedes-Benz can still be said to be ahead of its competitors of the same level. The 11.9-inch waterfall-style central control screen and the 12.3-inch full LCD instrument panel can be given to you, and the display effect and functionality are also leading enough.
In terms of power, as a brand new Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the latest M254 engine is directly installed on the C-Class, using a 9AT gearbox and equipped with a 48-volt light hybrid system. Don't be surprised. In fact, the domestic C-class should also have a 1.5T engine, which is divided into high and low power versions.
Honda Civic
The tenth-generation Honda Civic currently on sale is also a very popular model and is called a "civilian supercar" by many people. Even last year, a hatchback version was added, which looks more like Honda's performance car Type-R. But now the new Civic is about to be released at the Shanghai Auto Show, and its appearance has undergone very obvious changes.
The new Honda Civic looks more stable, the front of the car still has a flat style, and a lot of bright black decoration is added, which is similar to the current Dongfeng Honda INSPIRE. Whether it is the body lines or the decoration of the lower surround, the Civic does not have the radical movement of the current model.
The body size has become larger, and the side fastback design is more restrained than before. The entire body looks more slender, and the general outline is very close to Cadillac's CT4. The rear part of the car lacks the previous iconic C-shaped taillights. Now it has a new style, which looks like the Volkswagen Sagitar. The lower surround has a dual-exhaust layout. It feels like the temperament of the whole vehicle has changed from a dynamic youth to a mature middle-aged image.
Honda's interior design has always been simple and practical, without much luxury or technology. The same is true for the new style now. The suspended central control screen, the air-conditioning outlets that run through the style, and the mechanical in-line gear shift don't have much freshness.
In terms of power, the new car still has a 1.5T engine with a maximum power of 134 kilowatts, which is slightly higher than the current 130 kilowatts. A 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 95 kilowatts will also be launched.
