Starting from Monday, the car circle is not peaceful. The report of the Beijing News directly rectified two 4S stores, making the public relations teams of the two brands sleepless all night.
The most coquettish thing is Tesla, which announced the domestic recall information last Friday, but in the United States, it turned out that it was "all the fault of China drivers", so it was not planned to announce the recall outside China.
However, in order to avoid the suspicion of super cold rice, these two things are put in the last gossip link. Let's start with last week's new car.
Having occupied the market segment for many years, the brother model Highlander, which won the championship of value preservation, is finally coming. FAW Toyota Edition? The latest information of Highlander was disclosed last week and is expected to be officially listed in China on 202 1.
This picture is the factory body diagram of FAW Toyota's brand-new SUV exposed by the media last week. Not surprisingly, it is the white body of FAW Toyota "Highlander". Prior to this, FAW Toyota also applied for registration of two automobile naming trademarks, Luze and Fang Lu. Perhaps the final name of FAW Toyota "Highlander" will be one of them.
The model launched this time is based on the overseas version of the new generation Highlander. According to the plan, GAC Toyota will launch a new generation of Highlander next year, and then make a "two-car strategy" like Fangrong, Willanda, Corolla and Lei Ling. Will you buy FAW Toyota Highlander or GAC Toyota Highlander?

In addition to Highlander, Toyota Harrier, another new car that will enter China next year, was also exposed last week.
It is reported that the new generation of Toyota Harrier will also be officially made in China at the end of next year, and will be officially listed and sold in China in early 2022, and will also be introduced by FAW Toyota and GAC Toyota as a "two-car strategy".

Harrier's positioning is between RAV4 and Highlander, but it is more radical in design. At present, the length, width and height of overseas models are 4740/ 1855/ 1660mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2690 mm At present, it is very likely to be lengthened after being introduced into China to meet domestic demand.

Only in naming, it is also reported that FAW Toyota will adopt the transliteration of "Hailia", and GAC Toyota may be named "Fenglanda" to continue to expand the Landa SUV series, but the final name will not be determined until it is officially unveiled in China.
Even if Toyota is finished, look at the Mercedes-Benz of the chicken thief!
Why is it called chicken thief? Because according to media reports last week, the new Mercedes-Benz GLC is expected to be officially released at the end of 20021. It should be noted that this time, the Mercedes-Benz GLC will be produced on the new generation E-class * * * line, and it will also be equipped with Mercedes-Benz 1.5T engine for the first time (maximum power 150kw, peak torque can reach 280n·m).
In this way, you will never say that Mercedes-Benz is very kind and put the 2.0T engine used by Big G on the Mercedes-Benz GLC, will you?
Forget it, anyway, whether it's 1.5T GLC or 1.3T GLB, it's not affordable for a poor person like me. After all, the Mercedes-Benz standard is too expensive, which is a bit unbearable. Let's take a look at the latest development of Volkswagen electric vehicles.
According to the official information of FAW-Volkswagen, the SOP (small batch production stage) model (ID 4CROZZ) of MEB platform in Foshan factory has been off the assembly line. At the same time, SAIC Volkswagen also released the news that ID 4X will also be officially put into production on 654381October 27th.
Prior to this, Volkswagen Group released the overseas version of the ID 4 model online, which will be listed in China on165438+10.3, while the domestic models will be produced by FAW-Volkswagen and SAIC- Volkswagen respectively.

This car will also become a pure electric vehicle in the pure sense of Volkswagen in China, which has more electric performance than the previous oil-to-electric vehicle.
According to the information released by SAIC Volkswagen before, the length, width and height of SAIC Volkswagen ID 4X are 46121852/1640mm respectively, the wheelbase is 2765mm, the maximum carrying power is 65438+555km (about 204Ps), and the maximum torque is 3/kloc-0.
After seeing so many joint venture models, look back at China automobile brands.
The heaviest brand new car last week should be regarded as the second model of Changan UNI series (the first model is UNI-T).
This version is a preview. The new car is positioned as a medium-sized SUV and will be built based on the Vision-V released at this year's Beijing Auto Show. It is expected that 1 1 Guangzhou Auto Show will be officially unveiled, and it will be officially launched in the first quarter of 20021.
It can be seen that the front part continues the futuristic design like UNI-T, and the headlights are also completely new. UNI-T's V-shaped design has been replaced with a new shape on the roof, and even the preview can feel that this car will be a design very close to the concept car.
Before this, we also learned from the factory staff that this will be a large UNI-T, but judging from the current forecast, the overall design will continue the first model of UNI series, but it will bring more surprises and look forward to the Guangzhou Auto Show.
Finally, it is your favorite gossip link.
Last Friday (65438+1October 23rd), the State Administration of Markets announced the recall information about Tesla.
Tesla Motors (Beijing) Co., Ltd. filed a recall plan with the State Administration of Market Supervision according to the requirements of the Regulations on the Management of Defective Automobile Product Recall and the Implementation Measures of the Regulations on the Management of Defective Automobile Product Recall, and recalled some imported models from now on. S, model? X electric car.
It is worth noting that this recall was carried out when the State Administration of Markets initiated the defect investigation, so Tesla finally recalled.
The reverse side is in the back. According to foreign media, Tesla believes that the China recall was initially caused by the driver's problem.
In a letter from Tesla's lawyer to NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration), the company blamed the driver in China for the problem, saying that there was no safety problem, and said that it did not intend to carry out the recall outside China.
This is remarkable. Since it is the driver's problem, how do you calculate the nearly 30,000 problematic vehicles? Since drivers in China have problems, it is suggested not to sell cars in China.
Let's just say that a dead duck has a hard mouth.
Last Monday, the public relations teams of Dongfeng Nissan and SAIC Volkswagen should have a hard time falling asleep, because according to the Beijing News, during an unannounced visit to Beijing SAIC Volkswagen Beijing Hengxing Tiancheng 4S store and Dongfeng Nissan Shengtong franchise store, the Beijing News reporter found that these two 4S stores had problems such as "fixed damage repair of bad parts", "false cleaning and maintenance" and "interception of excessive oil" in order to make greater maintenance profits.
As soon as the video came out, it immediately caused a fierce response on the Internet, and then the two OEMs immediately issued relevant statements:
One company cancelled the star rating qualification and made rectification within a time limit, while the other company was ordered to immediately suspend business for investigation. This reaction speed is still very fast, so things did not continue to ferment.
But the question is, is the maintenance problem of this 4S shop really an example? I believe car owners know that we received such a comment in the updated article last Friday: "My BMW 530 was scratched on the road two years ago and went to a 4s shop in Hangzhou for repair. At that time, the price was 4300, and the insurance company directly docked with the 4s shop. I drove away, but when I bought insurance for my car last year, I found that the repair cost was more than 10 thousand. I called the 4s shop, and the other party replied that I didn't want you to pay a penny to track down an X! Silent! "
In short, it is still difficult for consumers to protect their rights, just as it is difficult for me to turn a salted fish upside down. Even if I turn over, I am still a salted fish.
Hey ~ just sauce purple ~
Please come to see salted fish at the same time next week.
