Shanghai GM Yinglang

Due to the pre-heating of GM’s new generation HRV and the increasing attention of Cruz, which has a good sales volume recently, Buick Hideo has become one of the popular models at this auto show. Buick Hideo is a new generation of Excelle HRV five-door hatchback previously named Buick XT, but this time GM adopts a new generation of Astra from Opel as the prototype. According to the manufacturer, Buick Hideo is a brand-new Buick model based on "global platform and European and American technology" after the new Regal, the new LaCrosse and Angkor. It is a five-door coupe positioned in the mid-size car market, and its products are positioned between the new Excelle and the new Regal.
It is worth noting that Xinyate, which has been replaced abroad, has also adopted a brand-new engine of 1.6T This engine has also been applied to the new Regal in China, and it is expected that Yinglang will also be equipped with this brand-new engine.

The 3G concept car N1, which was launched at the Shanghai Auto Show, won the world at the auto show in April this year, causing a lot of crowds. This model continued to make a high-profile appearance at Guangzhou Auto Show. In terms of design, Roewe N1 maintained the design elements of Roewe family, the 550-type middle net shape, the long and narrow headlights, the oblique LED fog lights and the very sporty front skirt air dam design also set the tone for the positioning of this car, which is more fashionable and younger. The design concept of this car comes from the 3G technology that has been popularized in China, and it has the functions of GPS navigation and real-time service for car owners through the Internet. In addition, there are all kinds of functions such as downloading online music and browsing the web. This car has attracted many consumers to stop and appreciate at the Shanghai Auto Show, and this Guangzhou Auto Show will definitely become the highlight of the booth.
The Roewe N1, known as the "3G car", has entered the preparations for mass production and is expected to be launched in the market next year. It is one of its strong competitiveness to carry powershift developed in cooperation with Borg Warner.
Toyota new crown

Crown used to be famous in China. This Toyota premium car, which has always been produced only in Japan, did not perform badly after it was introduced to China, but it did not achieve the expected great success, at least the goal of shaking Audi A6L’s position as king was not achieved. After experiencing the market experience of Crown, the launch of the new Crown by FAW Toyota is obviously well prepared, and its natural popularity should not be underestimated. The front face of the new generation Toyota Crown has been redesigned, and the new "inverted trapezoidal" air intake grille and square embossed trademark panel have replaced the front face of the previous generation Crown. The body line is also the focus of the improvement of the new generation Toyota Crown, which is completely opposite to the dignified shape of the old Crown. The new crown raises the rear of the car and boldly adopts the side lines with greater inclination, making the side lines of the whole car look more avant-garde and dynamic.
With the same size, the wheelbase of the Majesta Crown has reached 2925mm, and it has the capital to compete with the Audi A6L in terms of appearance luxury and internal space. The key is the price. The new crown is good, but it is also necessary to be cheaper than the Audi A6L. I believe Toyota has this strength.
Mazda CX7

With the increasing sales of Mazda 3 and the launch of new mazda 6 and Mazda 3 hatchbacks, the first Mazda SUV model in China — — Mazda CX7 has attracted consumers’ attention. Mazda CX7 has a large number of sports car design concepts. Its shape is not as angular as that of an ordinary SUV, but it pays more attention to aerodynamic design. Its head is sharp and its lines are very smooth, which is more like a sports car with a raised chassis.
The 2.3L direct injection turbocharged engine has been able to provide enough power, and at the same time, it takes into account the economy of urban use, and is more suitable for some entry-level SUV enthusiasts. As the second car of the family, Mazda CX7 also has enough space to take the whole family on a trip. Different from the existing traditional SUV models, CX7 is developed by Mazda’s unique R&D platform, which fully embodies the essence of Mazda brand sports car.
Shanghai Volkswagen TIGUAN Tiguan

Volkswagen booth has always been one of the most concerned booths for consumers in previous auto shows. The TIGUAN Tiguan, the first SUV model of Shanghai Volkswagen, will be launched at Guangzhou Auto Show, and the pre-sale will be started at the end of the year, which has aroused enthusiastic response from consumers and become one of the most popular models. The appearance modeling of domestic Tiguan is obviously different from that of imported version. Among the three foreign versions, the "Sport&Style" scheme is chosen, which emphasizes highway performance, and the appearance configuration level of wheels is also lower than that of imported version. The most important difference is that Tiguan has been lengthened by 80mm at the back door, which is shorter than the previously reported extension of 100mm, but it can still be seen that the body is longer than the imported version, and the rear seat space has been improved, but there is still no seven-seat model with the third row of seats.
In terms of power configuration, it will focus on two engines, 1.8TSI and 2.0TSI, which are matched with the traditional 6-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission. The 4Motion four-wheel drive system is standard for the whole system, but the off-road off-road mode is no longer available in the imported version.
