Introduction of Wuling new SUV models?

The latest masterpiece of Wuling Automobile-Xingchi SUV, with its unique design concept and attractive price positioning, is undoubtedly aimed at the young people’s car market. This SUV model, which is specially designed for young people, is designed to be their ideal choice:

Xingchi SUV continues the "wing aesthetics" style of Wuling silver standard, and the front face adopts an eye-catching matrix grille with polygonal headlights, which exudes a strong sporty atmosphere. The suspended roof, dense rims, eye-catching red brake calipers and diffusers, and the "S" logo on the air intake grille together create a distinctive personality and dynamics.

Stepping into the car of Xingchi, you will find that the interior design with black as the main color is matched with green contrast elements, creating a fashionable space without losing individuality. Exquisite chrome-plated decoration and the application of piano paint panel enhance the quality of the interior. In addition, the 10.25-inch central control panel is equipped with Ling OS Linxi car system, which is full of technology and meets the young people’s pursuit of intelligent driving.

Xingchi provides two power options: 1.5L manual /CVT and 1.5T CVT. For car buyers with sufficient budget, 1.5T CVT power is undoubtedly more popular, with a maximum power of 108kW and a peak torque of 250N·m, providing strong power performance.

Although Wuling Xingchi has attracted a lot of attention because of its appearance and price, in the increasingly fierce market competition, in order to stand out, Xingchi needs to further consider adding young people’s favorite configurations, such as ejection mode and exhaust sound, in order to achieve real differentiated competition.

五菱星驰

Wuling xingchi SUV is actively seizing the market of young people with its unique design, rich configuration and affordable price. However, in order to stand out from many competitors, Xingchi needs to continue to explore and innovate to meet the growing individual needs of young consumers.

Intelligent manufacturing remoulds traditional manufacturing industry "veteran recruits" witness the iterative upgrade of glass manufacturing

CCTV News:We walked into an automobile glass production enterprise in Fujian together, and met a veteran who has been in business for 30 years and a recruit who just switched jobs this year.In their eyes, what new changes have intelligent manufacturing brought to traditional manufacturing?

In the production workshop of the world’s largest automobile glass manufacturer, pieces of glass slide out one after another along the production line, and the left and right rows of robotic arms effortlessly grab the glass from the line and accurately stack it aside.

Zheng Mingsheng, who has worked in the glass manufacturing industry for more than 30 years, witnessed the process of less and less manual labor on the production line. Nowadays, this production line runs automatically 24 hours a day, with a daily output of 600 tons of original glass sheets. The huge workshop is empty and does not need a manual worker. Moreover, the intelligent manufacturing system can also complete quality inspection, cutting and other work by itself.

After the deployment of intelligent production equipment and platform, the production efficiency of the production line increased by 30% and the defective rate decreased by 30%. Now Zheng Mingsheng just needs to sit in the office, and he can have an overview of the overall production data through the industrial Internet platform. And next to Zheng Mingsheng’s office, there is a darkroom laboratory, where engineer Chen Zhixing is conducting a research and development test of automobile glass. They want to test a new function of glass.

In fact, Chen Zhixing is a recruit who has joined the glass industry for less than a year. It was the brand-new concept of glass antenna that made him decide to switch from electronic communication industry to glass manufacturing. While bringing new technology, it also makes more use of intelligent manufacturing tools such as experiments and simulation systems, which improves the design ability and efficiency of glass. It is estimated that by the end of this year, the new models of many well-known car companies will be equipped with this new glass product.

Analysis of the second generation escape chassis that impacts the driving experience

  Sina Auto News The second-generation Changan Yidong, which was listed at the end of March, must have left the deepest impression on everyone, which is the brand-new exterior design and the space practicality that has continued from the first-generation model. Yidong’s market vitality is very strong, and it has been firmly occupying an important market position in the independent A-class car camp for many years. In fact, there are not many independent models that can adhere to the complete life cycle and realize the replacement. For Changan, if the replacement of Yidong only stays in the face value and space, it seems a bit "strong outside and hollow inside". This time, we were lucky enough to come to Chang ‘an Automotive Engineering Research Institute to perform a major operation on the second generation Yidong to see what progress it has made compared with the first generation in terms of driving quality.

Analysis of the second generation escape chassis that impacts the driving experience

  Important chassis parts of two generations of Yidong vehicles were put on the scene. Zou Yi, a senior automobile engineer in Chang ‘an, emphatically introduced the differences in suspension structure between the two generations of mobile vehicles.

Comparison of rear suspension of two generations of vehicles

  Although they are all rear suspensions in the form of torsion beam, the second generation of escape rear suspension adopts U-O Forming closed torsion beam rear suspension from German suppliers, which is more difficult in process. The biggest feature of the new rear suspension is that it reduces the weight by 20% compared with the traditional V-shaped torsion beam on the basis of ensuring the structural strength. The reduction of unsprung weight has obvious benefits for vehicle handling performance.

  The improvement in technology is perceptible. Touching the inner side of the cross beam of the two-generation mobile rear suspension, you will find that the inner surface of the first-generation runaway has obvious burr feeling, while the inner side of the second-generation vehicle is obviously smoother, which feels like the effect after a steel plate is bent and butted end to end.

Analysis of the second generation escape chassis that impacts the driving experience

  Facing the domestic road conditions, the hidden danger of the rear suspension of many models is not the fracture of the cross beam, but the stress fatigue is easy to form between the transverse and longitudinal beams. The welding area between the second-generation escape rear suspension beam and the longitudinal beam has been increased, and the official introduction shows that its reliability has been improved by 380%.

Position layout of shock absorber

  There are also differences in the arrangement of rear suspension shock absorbers between the two generations. We see that the shock absorber of the first generation model is located in front of the shock absorber spring and has a short length; The shock absorber of the second generation model is located behind the spring and has a long length. The purpose of adopting this vertical arrangement is to improve the efficiency of isolating vibration. After all, a longer shock absorber can provide a larger compression stroke and more adjustment space, thus improving the comfort of the rear row. In fact, if you pay attention, you will find that many luxury brands C-class cars and D-class cars also use this "super-long" shock absorber and arrangement. At present, this layout method has been used in Focus, Lectra 01 and other models, and the next generation of GM models will be equipped. Independent brands have also been gradually adopted, and the second generation of Yidong is one of them.

  In order to improve the comfort, engineers have also optimized the bushing structure of the second-generation runaway suspension, and appropriately reduced the stiffness of the bushing, which can improve the filtering ability of the suspension to road vibration and help to isolate the road from fine bumps.

  Changan engineer also demonstrated the process of adjusting the shock absorber for us. Engineers will put the designed shock absorber prototype on the bench for testing, and the bench will compress/expand the shock absorber at different speeds of 0.05, 0.1, 0.3, 0.6 and 1.2m/s for four times to simulate the daily road conditions. In this process, the system will generate the damping data of the shock absorber to optimize the shock absorber repeatedly. We see that there are throttle plates with different sizes and shapes in the shock absorber, each with different specifications.

Analysis of the second generation escape chassis that impacts the driving experience

  For example, there are 28 different schemes of throttle plate in the above picture, and its working state and deformation can affect the flow of damping oil, and then affect the performance of shock absorber. Although the shock absorber does not directly reflect the "soft and hard" parts of a car suspension, these small differences can determine the final driving experience of a car. In fact, few domestic independent brands can independently develop, test and adjust shock absorbers like Changan, and most of them directly send the requirements to suppliers for them to do.

  After the chassis suspension is developed, the vehicle will be handed over to KC test bench to verify the suspension and steering motion characteristics. The cost of the test-bed is about 20 million yuan, which can quantitatively simulate the load and wheel state parameters of the suspension under various road conditions or body postures. It takes 2 days for each prototype to be put on the shelf, collect data, and then complete a set of tests, in which the collection time of complete KC data takes 4 hours. Of course, it is impossible for a car to go through KC test only once, and the comprehensive performance of the chassis system needs to be adjusted and verified repeatedly. This process is extremely cumbersome.

Analysis of the second generation escape chassis that impacts the driving experience

  For front-drive vehicles, vehicles tend to understeer during intense driving. It is impossible for a car to have no understeer at all, and engineers can only minimize this trend. In the second generation, the toe-in gradient of the wheel was optimized, and the relative positions of the internal and external mounting points of the steering gear were modified, which can slow down the trend of understeer to a certain extent, and then improve the handling stability of the vehicle in corners.

Analysis of the second generation escape chassis that impacts the driving experience

  Chang ‘an has his own thoughts on driving DNA. For example, in terms of steering transmission ratio, the second generation of escape has not only pursued the feeling of comfort. Compared with the first generation model, its steering line angular transmission ratio is reduced from 3 laps to 2.83 laps. Most cars and SUV models on the market need about 2.8~3 laps from left to right, and sports-oriented models will take about 2.5 laps. From the change of the transmission ratio of the second-generation freewheeling steering, we can also see that Chang ‘an is not satisfied with "good driving", but should work hard in the direction of "fun+good driving".

  For the adjustment of EPS electric power steering carried by the second generation Yidong, Changan uses a set of "robot" system that can quantitatively control the steering wheel angle and speed, and measure the steering wheel torque and body roll angle in real time. Engineers will set up different test forms, such as sine input, sweeping and catching up, to test the roll degree of the vehicle, the response speed of the steering wheel and the reliability of the steering motor respectively. It is worth mentioning that the second generation of escape has improved the power of EPS steering assist motor, so that the ease of use and reliability of the vehicle in extreme handling are more guaranteed.

  In addition to the steering transmission ratio just mentioned, the steering force feel is also an important item in EPS adjustment. Engineers showed us two different forces used in the test, namely, extremely light and heavy. During the test drive, you can really feel the different performances of the vehicle under two kinds of dynamics. In the extremely light mode, the steering feel of the vehicle is almost zero, and it begins to respond when it touches the vehicle lightly; In the heavier mode, the steering power is obviously reduced, and the arm will be tired when rubbing the car and turning around at low speed. The engineer said that the steering power directly affects the communication between a car and the driver, and it is not advisable for the steering wheel to be too light or too heavy. Therefore, EPS should be adjusted in combination with factors such as vehicle positioning and suspension calibration, so as to achieve stability and give people some driving pleasure.

  In April this year, the second generation Yidong achieved a braking performance of 35.6 meters in a public test, which is known to friends who know a little about cars-similar to many luxury brand sports-oriented models. This time, Changan engineers analyzed some reasons behind this achievement for us.

Analysis of the second generation escape chassis that impacts the driving experience

  In this pie chart, we can see that the braking performance of a car excludes environmental factors, and the factors related to the vehicle itself include axle load, calipers, body posture, tires, ABS and friction materials. The second generation of escape is mainly optimized for the thermal stability of the brake system and the formula of the brake shoe.

Analysis of the second generation escape chassis that impacts the driving experience

  Through CAE simulation analysis, the influence of different caliper fluid requirements on pedal stroke is simulated, and then the thermal stability of brake disc at different temperatures is simulated. Simulation analysis can greatly improve the efficiency of research and development, so that engineers can take as few detours as possible.

Analysis of the second generation escape chassis that impacts the driving experience

  Of course, only simulation analysis is not enough. Chang ‘an also has its own braking system laboratory. For example, this is where the brake pedal strength and master cylinder pressure are tested. Why are the brake pedals of some models "soft" at the initial stage, and it is necessary to step on the vehicle deeply before the braking force is obviously released? This is the key issue. Generally speaking, there is a certain gap between the pedal and the master cylinder pressure, that is, the empty position of the brake pedal, but excessive defecation in the empty position will delay the release of braking force and even cause safety hazards. Although the second-generation Yidong 35.6-meter 100-kilometer braking performance is not directly related to fine adjustment, we can also see from here that Changan’s control over the details of driving experience is quite in place.

Analysis of the second generation escape chassis that impacts the driving experience

  In terms of braking materials, the second generation Yidong has optimized the formula compared with the previous generation. The main improvement aspect is to control the thermal decay of the brake as much as possible when it is above 500℃, and reduce the sensitivity of the brake to pressure and temperature. In other words, in the future, car owners can use the brake pedal to control the speed more confidently when they are driving downhill on a mountain road for a long time, and the vehicle is not easy to "stop" because the temperature of the brake system is too high.

  In the past, independent brands were still making efforts in terms of large space and high configuration, striving to win the favor of consumers with low prices and high allocation. With the domestic auto market becoming more and more mature, the car buyers have a deeper understanding of cars, and improving the internal quality of vehicles has become a hard bone that manufacturers have to chew. Two generations of Yidong, the first generation of models gain a foothold with high cost performance, and the second generation of models will inevitably improve their driving quality. You really can’t just look at the configuration list when buying a car in the future. If you don’t get in the car and drive it, it’s hard for you to know its inner beauty.

2005 Domestic Car Consumer Satisfaction Survey Report


  "Car Shopping Guide" magazine is managed by the China Machinery Industry Federation. It serves prospective car owners, car owners, fans and industry insiders, disseminates car culture, cultivates the car market, and guides car consumption as its own responsibility. The text is 96 pages in full color, using international standards, large 16 folio, published one day a month, each priced at 6.6 yuan.
The magazine’s "Cover Story", "Test Report", "Car Purchase Documentary", "Personality Recommendation", "Car Purchase Instructions", "Car Price List", "Special Topics" and "Reader’s Mailbox" and other columns provide you with real-time information on the automotive market, explore the comprehensive performance of new cars on the market, analyze the competitive advantages of models of the same price and grade, analyze the selling points of automobiles, guide rational consumption, and adhere to the "shopping guide" as the direction to serve the majority of consumers. It is a car buying guide for prospective car owners, a car fan’s car review, and a complete list of business conditions for people in the automotive industry.

  Compared with 2004, the car market in the first half of 2005 seemed much flatter, with many new and to-be-listed models, but there was no large-scale price reduction of the models that consumers had hoped for. On the contrary, some car manufacturers raised prices by launching "2005 models", which increased the number of consumers waiting for prices to decline, and the year-on-year sales of cars fell a lot. Although the car market is not sluggish, the sales of various models vary greatly. For example, Elantra and Xiali have broken through the 10,000 mark for several consecutive months and won the first place in the same class respectively, while some models have been on the verge of discontinuing production for several months.

  For consumers, the number of models to choose from has increased. When buying a car, consumers have to ask relatives and friends one by one about the use of each model, as well as their satisfaction with the model. Buying a car has become cumbersome, and our "2005 Domestic Car Consumer Satisfaction Survey Report" will be recommended to you as a good car purchase reference. After the successful holding of the "2004 Domestic Car Consumer Satisfaction Survey", consumers have evaluated it as one of the best topics of the "Car Shopping Guide" year. In order to make the satisfaction survey more complete, we started the 2005 satisfaction survey in early February 2005. After more than three months of questionnaire collection, collation, and supplementary surveys, it was then handed over to a professional survey company to analyze the questionnaire and statistical results. Now, it has made a grand debut with the efforts of all parties.
  Consumer Satisfaction Index (CSI)
  Customer satisfaction is a level of consumer perception, and a deeper meaning refers to the degree to which the performance of the product (service) provided by the enterprise matches the current expectations of consumers.

  The Customer Satisfaction Index is a measure of consumer satisfaction, expressed as a percentage. For this survey, the Consumer Satisfaction Index is used to indicate the overall satisfaction of a car brand in terms of quality, performance, appearance, interior, after-sales services, and car maintenance costs.
  Improvements to the 2005 Consumer Satisfaction Survey
  1. In 2004, our questionnaires came from a variety of methods such as clipped questionnaires, face-to-face interviews, and online surveys. In 2005, more than 95% of our questionnaires came from clipped questionnaires, which was more direct and effective, increasing the efficiency of our questionnaires from 64% in 2004 to more than 92%.

  The number of models involved in the survey increased from 65 in 2004 to more than 100 in 2005, of which the number of models participating in the analysis increased from 34 to 45, an increase of 32%. With the continuous influx of new models and the expansion of the scope of the survey, the number of models that consumers can refer to has also increased significantly.

  3. The items of the questionnaire include 5 major items such as external quality, internal quality, performance, after-sales services and maintenance costs. The small items they contain add two items of audio and mechanical component reliability, bringing the sub-items to 18. Correspondingly, we have also fine-tuned the weight of each sub-item.

  4. Due to price cuts and market changes, the 2005 survey reclassified the price range.

  5. More manufacturers are participating and paying attention. Due to the greater influence of consumer satisfaction surveys, some manufacturers have taken the initiative to contact us and attach great importance to the survey results.
  The results of this investigation
  
New models such as Elantra, Fit, Audi A4, Corolla, and Peugeot 307 score relatively high, with their novel appearance, leading technology, and good performance. After-sales services can also keep up. Consumers have shown strong interest and high satisfaction with these new models, and their sales are also very optimistic.

  Overall, the score of German models has generally increased, which is related to the good manufacturing technology and after-sales services of German models; Shanghai GM’s models have shown a downward trend. In 2005, Shanghai GM improved its product range and launched Rongyu, Cadillac and New Sail models to attract consumers and increase satisfaction; the ranking of Korean models has risen rapidly; the ranking of Japanese models has risen and fallen, but the fuel-efficient characteristics of Japanese models make consumers generally satisfied.

  Due to the increase in the number of models, the gap between the top and bottom-ranked models has widened. Manufacturers need to strengthen the improvement of the bottom-ranked models, otherwise these models will fall behind or even be replaced in the increasingly fierce product competition in the future.

  Among the top 10 models, Japanese models account for 4, German models account for 5, and Korean models account for 1. Japanese models have not changed from 2004, while the number of German and Korean models has increased. Regrettably, there are still no national brands in the top 10. Our national brands should be comprehensively improved in terms of product quality, performance, and after-sales services in order to truly become a strong brand.

  This survey covers a wide range, involving 30 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions across the country. In the same way as the previous survey, we will divide the content of the survey into 5 major aspects such as external quality, internal quality, performance, after-sales services and maintenance costs. These 5 major aspects include 18 sub-categories. In the chart below, we will list the scores of each model in 18 sub-categories (converted to √ and ×). At the same time, since there are many models involved in this survey, we focus on the top two or three models in each class.

  The winning model won the crown – Mazda 6 ranked first overall
  For the winning models in this consumer satisfaction survey, consumers, manufacturers, and all members of the editorial department are eagerly awaiting, who is the most satisfied model in the minds of consumers in 2005? After rigorous data analytics and sorting, the final Mazda6 won the crown with a high score of 80.73%, once again becoming the most satisfied model in the minds of consumers. This is also the second consecutive year that Mazda6 has won the crown, reflecting the high recognition of this model by consumers.

  A year has passed since the Mazda6 won the crown in the satisfaction survey in 2004. The Mazda6 has withstood the test of consumers, ranking first in terms of overall shape, luggage compartment space, power, handling, braking, safety and reliability, and also ranked very high (in the top 5) in terms of air conditioning performance, acoustics, sealing, interior quality, and mechanical component reliability, which makes the Mazda6 indisputably achieve the first overall score again. As a personalized model among mid-to-high-end sedans, the Mazda6 not only provides sufficient safety, but also greatly meets the requirements of consumers who pursue speed and handling. The success of the Mazda6 also lies in its outstanding performance not only in individual items, but also in its comprehensive performance including after-sales services, mechanical parts performance, etc. Consumers are satisfied. As a model produced simultaneously in the world, the Mazda6 has a high technical content, and the comprehensive factors make the Mazda6 "the most satisfactory model in the minds of consumers in 2005".

  In addition, in the further requirements put forward by consumers, consumers want to be able to increase DVD, reversing radar and car phones and other devices; lower the price of parts; strengthen the chassis sound insulation; increase the trend of independent air conditioning in the rear seats; increase the seat electric heating device for models sold to the north.

  Accord ranked second overall

  Although the mid- to high-end car market has shrunk significantly, the Accord has become an extreme, which is inseparable from the Accord’s high satisfaction. In the 2005 satisfaction survey, the Accord’s score rose to more than 80%, becoming one of the two major models with a score of more than 80% in this satisfaction survey.

  Accord scored highly in sub-items such as overall styling, interior space, interior quality and safety and reliability, while it ranked in the top two in sub-items such as air-conditioning performance, comfort, handling, reliability of mechanical components and after-sales services. These results make Accord achieve a good second overall score. Consumers said that Accord has fine workmanship, good quality of interior and paint finish; low fuel consumption in similar models; stable quality of mechanical components; handling, power and air-conditioning performance are all talked about by car owners; at the same time, Guangzhou Honda’s after-sales services have a good attitude and high overall level.

  Owners also put forward suggestions for improvement in the details of the Accord, such as the rearview mirror is prone to water accumulation; the luggage compartment space is not very reasonable; the sound effect is average; the high-speed wind noise is relatively large, and the sound insulation device should be added; the configuration (such as GPS satellite positioning system and reversing radar) should be added.


  Passat ranked third overall

  As a "veteran" model in mid-to-high-end cars, Passat has a lot of sales, and it has shown a significant growth trend in the past (it did not decline until 2004). Passat has a good reputation and brand influence in mid-to-high-end cars. Since March 2005, the cost-effective 2005 Passat has been listed, and the market price is similar to the old Passat, which is nearly 20,000 yuan cheaper than the manufacturer’s guide price. While Passat has changed models, it has also maintained a relatively stable price (so far in the past 10 months, the market price has been relatively stable), which is conducive to improving consumer confidence in this model. The survey of Passat scored a high score, and the overall ranking has also risen from the original 8th place to the current 3rd place.

  The Passat ranks highly in sub-categories such as overall styling, sealing, interior space, paint quality, comfort, luggage compartment space, noise and after-sales services. Consumers rate the Passat as a model with beautiful styling, mature technology, outstanding braking and handling performance. The Passat has a large interior space and has the highest safety performance in the same class. At the same time, the after-sales services network is developed and maintenance is convenient.

  Consumers have also proposed some improvements to the Passat, including: low configuration, sunroof, DVD, EBD and TCS, reversing radar should be standard; at the same time add electronic navigation system, electric adjustable seats and electric heating system; improve fuel economy; reduce the price of spare parts and maintenance costs. In addition, the seat is not comfortable enough for long-distance travel, and the sound level is low. These aspects should also be improved.

AttentionAfter obtaining the scores of each model on each sub-item, we performed scientific and statistical calculations to convert these scores into √ and ×, which evaluate consumer satisfaction with each sub-item in terms of the degree to which each model deviates from the average. 3 √ A models do not mean how much better performance or more space or less maintenance costs than 2 √ B models, but represent that the owner’s satisfaction with A is one √ higher than that of B. Don’t look at these models from the perspective of the same person. Different car owners have different expectations and requirements, so their satisfaction will be very different.
  Satisfaction Evaluation of 80,000~ 180,000 Middle Class Car
  Golf ranked fourth overall

  Compared with the satisfaction survey in 2004, the overall ranking of the Golf has risen a lot, and in the middle-class car class (80,000~ 180,000 yuan), the Golf won the first place. As a classic model of Volkswagen, the Golf has created a sales myth in the history of automobiles and is loved by the world. However, after the Golf was made in China, the sales volume at the beginning of its listing (listed in July 2003) was not ideal, which was mainly related to the price, shape and increasingly competitive market. After a series of adjustments by FAW-Volkswagen to the Golf, the sales of the Golf began to rise gradually. At the same time, the practical performance of the Golf was also recognized by consumers, and the used owners said that these were the basis for the improvement of the satisfaction of the Golf. It is believed that higher satisfaction will further promote the increase in golf sales, and golf can continue to write its sales myth in China.

  The Golf scores highly in sub-categories such as paint quality, power, braking, noise and reliability of mechanical components. At the same time, the Golf does not have the weakness of low scores. Volkswagen’s rigorous manufacturing process satisfies consumers. Consumers rate the Golf’s air conditioning effect as good; the interior is of good quality and meticulous workmanship; good handling performance makes consumers feel comfortable driving; at the same time, the Golf’s safety performance is also first-class.

  Owners’ suggestions for improvements to the Golf include: ESP devices should be added; the sound effect is average; maintenance costs and the price of some spare parts are high; and the sound insulation of the engine compartment is not good.

  Elantra ranked fifth overall

  Following Elantra’s excellent sales performance in 2004, Elantra made persistent efforts in 2005 to occupy the top of the mid-range car sales list for several consecutive months, with sales reaching a record-breaking 20,000 or more in individual months, which is inseparable from Elantra’s high satisfaction. In the 2005 satisfaction survey, Elantra ranked among the top mid-range cars and ranked 5th overall, achieving impressive results.

  Elantra scored highly in terms of comfort, handling, noise, and after-sales services, and also ranked in the top 10 in terms of interior space, interior quality, sound, and braking, which made Elantra’s overall score high, and Elantra’s comprehensive performance was highly recognized by consumers. Consumers rated Elantra as a "best cost-effective" mid-range car with excellent power, handling, braking, comfort, and safety performance, and after-sales services.

  At the same time, consumers have also put forward improvement requirements for Elantra, including slightly higher internal noise in the car; greater roll in turns; outdated interior style; soft vibration damping system; high cost of accessories and maintenance; uneven cooling in the car; and a slightly lower chassis.

  Bora ranked sixth overall

  After achieving a high score in the satisfaction survey in 2004, Bora achieved a high score in this survey and achieved a good result of sixth place in the total score, which is one of the two major models of FAW-Volkswagen in the top 10. FAW-Volkswagen’s excellent quality and perfect after-sales services have laid the foundation for its high satisfaction score, and its good performance has made it a unanimous praise from consumers.

  Bora scores highly in many sub-categories such as sealing, paint quality, power, handling, braking, safety and reliability, and noise. Owners rate Bora’s power performance as good; the driver’s control is flexible; the interior workmanship is fine; the braking effect is good; the mechanical components are reliable and not prone to failure; at the same time, Bora’s good safety performance also makes car owners feel very at ease when driving. In addition, Bora’s paint quality is good, and it still feels like a new car after long-term use; FAW-Volkswagen has many 4S shops, which are very convenient for maintenance.

  Consumers have also put forward higher requirements for Bora: less space in the rear row; higher prices for spare parts; insufficient brightness of the headlights, poor visibility when driving at night; and the quality of the wipers needs to be improved.

  Fit ranked seventh overall

  Since the Fit went on sale in October 2003, consumers have been booking enthusiastically.

There are many models of the Fit, 1.3
A variety of models, including the L and 1.5L, manual and automatic, hatchback and sedan, can meet the needs of different consumers.

  Wizz ranked ninth overall

  Weizi prototype car Yaris in Europe sales are very good, listed in Europe for half a year on the sales break 100,000, but Weizi in the domestic sales have not gone up, although Tianjin FAW Toyota has carried out many price cuts, but its sales are still unsatisfactory.

  The reason for the poor sales of Vizi is that consumers do not correctly recognize this model, and the appearance of Vizi and people’s consumer tastes are also inconsistent. At present, the lowest price of Vizi is only 70,000, which is more cost-effective in the same grade of models, and the technology of the 8A engine is also very mature. Importantly, consumers who use this car are generally satisfied with Vizi, and compared with the 2004 consumer satisfaction survey, Vizi’s overall ranking has risen to a certain extent, and it has entered the ranks of the top 10. Vizi also achieved first place in the reliability of mechanical components. In addition, it ranks high in many sub-categories such as fuel economy, maintenance cost, safety and reliability, braking, power and handling. At the same time, Vizi has no obvious weaknesses.

  The improvement areas proposed by consumers for Vizi include: the sunroof is best changed to electric adjustment; the seat comfort is not enough; it is best to install front fog lamps; there is room for improvement in the body assembly process; the overall sound insulation effect is not good; the service attitude and technical level of the 4S shop need to be improved; the paint quality is average; the door is blocked when closed; the rear seats are not spacious enough.

  Gower ranked 25th overall

  This is the first time that Gower has entered the scope of the consumer satisfaction survey. Among all models, Gower’s score is in the middle level, but among models in the same class, Gower’s score is at the top. This time, Gower ranks second among economy cars. As can be seen from the questionnaire sent back by readers, Gower’s satisfaction in the eyes of consumers is average. Gower has no obvious sub-categories at the top, and the usual sub-categories are in the middle level. Among them, the sub-categories such as air-conditioning performance, after-sales services, noise and reliability of mechanical components rank slightly higher. Consumers are satisfied with Gower’s relatively stable mechanical components, acceptable handling, sealing, and power performance, generous design, and harmonious paint quality and color matching.

  The improvement suggestions put forward by consumers include: the engine is not advanced enough, relatively backward, and the fuel consumption is high; the transmission and clutch also need to be improved; the workmanship of individual interior parts is rough; the safety is average (no ABS); and the assembly quality should be further improved.

  Antelope ranked 31st overall

  The Antelope sold well in 2004, breaking through the 50,000-car mark in one fell swoop. The Antelope’s score ranks high among the same class of models in this survey, and many sub-categories have achieved good results. Among them, fuel economy also won the first place in all models, maintenance costs also ranked high, and the sub-categories such as luggage compartment space, power and mechanical component reliability also ranked high. Consumers praised the Antelope for its low maintenance costs; easy maintenance; good braking performance; flexible handling; luggage compartment space is also large enough.

  The improvements proposed by consumers for the antelope include: poor sealing, the overall shape is "old"; the assembly quality needs to be improved; the engine noise is high, and the sealing should be improved; the door clearance is too large; the audio, especially the subwoofer, has low power; and the quality of the interior components needs to be improved.

  SPARK ranked 17th overall

  SPARK has received unanimous praise from consumers in this survey. Although the overall ranking is only 17, it is far ahead in the sub-car class. Some time ago, we often heard about the SPARK price increase in the market, which reflects consumers’ recognition of this model.

  In this survey, SPARK did not have a very prominent sub-item. Relatively speaking, it scored relatively high in sub-items such as overall styling, paint quality, interior space, interior quality, comfort, air conditioning performance, noise, fuel economy, and mechanical component reliability. Consumers report that SPARK has low interior noise; good sealing; reasonable interior space design; good fuel economy, very fuel-efficient; and fashionable and avant-garde overall styling. What makes consumers satisfied is also the abundant power performance.

  Consumers also put forward some improvement suggestions for SPARK, such as the higher price of spare parts; the small number of after-sales service stores, which is inconvenient to maintain; poor sealing; the blind spot of the A-pillar is large; the maintenance cost is higher; the chassis is slightly lower.

  Audi A4 ranked 10th overall

  The Audi A4 was officially launched in May 2004. It has been more than a year now. The Audi A4 has achieved good results for the first time in the survey, entering the top 10 in the overall ranking. The Audi A4 scored highly in sub-categories such as sound, power, paint quality and sealing. In its overall evaluation, consumers said that the Audi A4’s appearance is dynamic and stylish, with good interior workmanship and outstanding safety performance. In addition, the luggage compartment space and air conditioning performance have also won unanimous praise from consumers.

  At the same time, consumers have also put forward higher requirements for the Audi A4, and consumers hope that manufacturers can improve the details: reduce the maintenance cost of the Audi A4; improve the level of after-sales services; reduce fuel consumption; increase the rear row space; some consumers propose that the blind spot of the rearview mirror should be reduced.

  Audi A6

  There are only two models in this class, Audi A6 and Audi A4. Since FAW-Volkswagen has launched a new domestic Audi A6L, and the old model will be discontinued, this article will not focus on the Audi A6, but will only briefly explain the situation of the Audi A6 in this investigation.

  The results of each sub-category of the Audi A6 are basically in the middle level, which also makes the overall score of the Audi A6 in this survey not high, but the performance of the Audi A6 in some sub-categories is commendable. Consumers report that the power performance, safety performance and sealing performance of the Audi A6 are good, and the overall shape, paint quality and comfort are also satisfactory to consumers. In addition, consumers praise the Audi A6 for its large interior space and good sound effect.

  summarize
  Our consumer satisfaction survey has received strong support from our readers, and we would like to express our heartfelt thanks for their attention and support. Consumers consider many factors when buying a car, and their emphasis on various factors is also different. Some people place more emphasis on fuel economy, some people place more emphasis on power and handling, some people place more emphasis on after-sales services, and some people place more emphasis on maintenance costs. The lower-ranked models in the overall score may score highly in a certain sub-category. For example, the lower-ranked Xiali and Alto score very high in maintenance costs, and the characteristics of low maintenance costs are very suitable for the majority of economy car consumers. Therefore, they are also happy to choose these models.

  As the number of new models continues to increase, consumers can choose from more models, and our satisfaction survey will include more and more new models, even MPVs and SUVs. At the same time, we also hope that more and more consumers and manufacturers will participate, making this survey the most authoritative and comprehensive reference for consumers when purchasing a car.

Zhou Xun, as the boss, wants to learn from Fan Bingbing, pretend to be an ogre and draw tattoos on the corners of his eyes

Zhou Xun played cold as an ogre, and drew "dragonflies" at the corners of his eyes to cover his scars

        In the film "Nail Clippers," produced by Peng Haoxiang and directed by Zeng Guoxiang and Yin Zhiwen, Li Kaiyi, played by Zhou Xun, has only one hobby: eating nail clippers, and the scene filmed that day is a small shop that she and her boyfriend jointly open to sell nail clippers. Director Zeng Guoxiang revealed that Zhou Xun gives people a cool and a little cold feeling in the film, which is very mysterious. Although Peng Haoxiang’s original book was a suspense novel, it was adapted into a movie and added a lot of love scenes.

        The dragonfly pattern at the corner of Zhou Xun’s eyes can be seen in the stills previously exposed in this film, and she also appeared in this shape when visiting the class. "Because I have a scar here, which was injured when I fell when I was a child, I always wanted to cover it up, and then I just covered it when I shot this scene. After painting it, I think it looks like a dragonfly." Zhou Xun also said that the pattern has a funny meaning, which is all designed by the content of the film.

Lin Qingxia talks to her teacher about a dream of Red Mansions, less like Daiyu and now like Baochai (Photo)



    China News Service, November 6, Lin Qingxia, a big star, has a "unique idol" in her heart, which is Taiwan’s cultural celebrity Jiang Xun. She once flew to Taiwan once a week just to attend Jiang Xun’s aesthetics class and listen to him talk about the dream of the Red Chamber.


    According to Taiwan’s United Daily News, after the "Awakening of Beauty," Lin Qingxia was moved to tears in front of the statue, and she was also enthusiastic about writing calligraphy, painting, and trying to write. Art kindled her enthusiasm, and even vowed to become an artist at the age of 60.


    Born in Xi’an, Jiang Xun is known for his floral waterscape paintings, and is loved by students for his aesthetic teaching and thinking. In addition, he has published several collections of poetry, served as the chief editor of Taiwan’s early art publication "Lion", and is currently the president of "United Literature".


    Q: When did Jiang Xun become Lin Qingxia’s idol?


    Lin Qingxia (hereinafter referred to as Lin): A friend gave me a CD of Teacher Jiang talking about the Dream of Red Mansions. I really wanted to see him after listening to it. Later, when I found out that Teacher Jiang was starting classes here, I took advantage of visiting my father in Taiwan every week.


    Teacher is my only idol, can’t get too close, too close I will be afraid, haha.


    Jiang Xun (hereinafter referred to as Jiang): Yang Fan (Hong Kong film director) laughed at her: "You must have no idol in your life, you must find an idol."


    Lin: The teacher is still my half sleeping pill. Because listening to the teacher talk about the disc (CD) of the Dream of Red Mansions, my heart is very stable and it is easy to fall asleep.


    Jiang: I was also told by someone on the MRT (urban railway) that he had long insomnia and fell asleep as soon as he listened to my audiobook. My voice made him quiet. I am very happy.


    Q: What is the reason for opening the private lecture hall of Dream of Red Mansions?


    Jiang: At first, a group of good friends hoped to have different spiritual pursuits outside of a wealthy life, so at first they not only talked about the Dream of the Red Chamber, but also studied Chinese art history and Western art history; it was just a small class of ten or twenty students, and classes were held every Friday afternoon.


    When Qingxia first came to class, I was very nervous. She is a big star, and the staff who borrowed our venue came to line up two rows and waited to see Qingxia. I was still inevitably disturbed by the media’s shaping of her…


    Lin: His eyes didn’t even float to my side! I sat on the side, and he almost saw me, and his eyes moved away again. I thought, well, this is very safe, the teacher doesn’t look at me, so I put on my reading glasses, but I didn’t expect to look up, Oh, the teacher saw me!


    Jiang: Haha, as soon as I saw Qingxia wearing presbyopia glasses, the big star suddenly became a real person – she would be presbyopia too! After that, I felt so relaxed, as if the spell had been broken. Therefore, it is a great practice to know the essence of a person with a clear water. Qingxia is my very important homework.


    In those years, most of the classes were taught by wealthy people, and Dream of the Red Chamber was also about the things of wealthy families, and also about the pain of deep love. It has been more than a year since the class ended, and everyone has changed a little, and some people have left. They called me teacher, but I have learned a lot from them, because I believe that it is not easy to pass the level of wealth and deep love.


    Q: Lin Qingxia once played Jia Baoyu. What is her experience when reading Dream of Red Mansions?


    Lin: Everyone guessed that I played Lin Daiyu, Zhang Aijia played Jia Baoyu, and then we switched. Director Li ("A Dream of Red Mansions" director Li Hanxiang) said, I have a feeling that the jade tree is in the wind, and I also think I can play it.


    The roles I have played, I love the male actor: Jia Baoyu and Dongfang Undefeated.


    Jiang: I think Li Hanxiang is amazing. Qingxia has a kind of heroism between her eyebrows and eyes, and he can see it. I just came back from Paris to see this movie, and I remember it very clearly. She was so thrilling when she was beaten by Jia Zheng!


    Lin: My little daughter didn’t dare to watch that scene and hugged me blushing. I told her that I actually put on a towel and wasn’t afraid, not afraid.


    In real life, some people guess that I am Xue Baochai. I hope to be able to be Wang Xifeng, so good at housekeeping, but not so poisonous. In fact, there was a nasty part of Lin Daiyu’s personality in the past, crying, sensitive, and worried, and others thought I was awkward.


    Jiang: Looking at Qingxia’s "Outside the Window", I know she must be very awkward. Her face is covered with a layer of fog, and joy and sadness are mixed on her face.


    Lin: I was too simple at that time. I had just graduated from high school and was only seventeen years old. But when the teacher met me, I had already become Xue Baochai. After getting married, I changed roles naturally.


    Jiang: We all have Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai in our characters, and we will always be in conflict between the two personalities. Lin Daiyu died with uncompromising persistence, and Xue Baochai knew how to be harmonious and compromise with the world to survive. We need to have self-persistence inside, and be able to get along with people easily outside. It is a great wisdom to be able to balance the two.


    Lin: Well said, that’s what happened! When I was a teenager, I loved to talk about my worries, and I didn’t know what I was worried about, and I was very unhappy. Before the age of 30, my pain accounted for 80%. Once I looked in the mirror and asked myself who I was? What did I look like? Director Tan Jiaming said to me: "If you can ignore people’s opinions, you will succeed."


 




    Girls’ feelings are like Daiyu, marrying into Xing Mansion is like Baochai


    "The tide is coming and going, and the white clouds are still in the corner of the green mountain." Jiang Xun wrote a poem, framed it as a hanging shaft and sent it to Lin Qingxia. Very calm characters, he said that he wrote it after forty-five minutes of meditation, and gave her this quiet, so that she can visualize it when she meditates. "It’s so beautiful! It’s like Master Hongyi’s characters, um, better than Hongyi!" Lin Qingxia couldn’t stop admiring, but also because of her intimate consideration.


    For this teacher-student conversation that originated from the Dream of the Red Chamber, Lin Qingxia flew from Hong Kong and returned to the place where she used to talk about the Dream of the Red Chamber in class with Teacher Jiang, but some of her classmates were no longer there. In the old place, the teacher was still Jiang Xun, and Lin Qingxia was the only student.


    A stranger on the MRT once said to Jiang Xun: "You donated a bell in the temple in your previous life, so you will have a good voice in this life." Lin Qingxia said Jiang Xun was her "half sleeping pill", and his voice brought calming power.


    Jiang Xun claims to be an "aesthetic evangelist". He talks about beauty, which is so moving that it almost has the power of religious infection. The "Dream of Red Mansions Private School" opened for rich friends is like a metaphor for real life; when he tells a book, he also looks into the hearts of the listeners; Lin Qingxia’s eyes looking up to Jiang teacher are not limited to red school, but seek guidance for walking life.


    Everyone can see themselves in "A Dream of Red Mansions," Mr. Jiang said, even the villains Xue Pan or Jia Rui. Lin Qingxia, who was praised by the director Tsui Hark as "a beauty who only came out in 50 years," sees a certain part of Lin Daiyu’s sensitive and awkward young personality. But friends who know "Mrs. Xing" in Hong Kong guess that she is like Xue Baochai who knows the world.


    But she admires Wang Xifeng, the capable housekeeper; and Cecilia, the wife of the former French president who has just been freed from the shackles of the "first lady", also makes her admire: "How can she be so dashing?"


    Through the halo of a big star, Jiang Xun saw her emotions and vulnerability as a human being, as well as her joy as a mother, with his broad experience in life, "I love watching you talk to your daughter on the phone, your whole face is lit up." Jiang Xun’s understanding and guidance also gave Lin Qingxia the space to be comfortable in the world where she was not allowed to be fat or ugly.


    Lin Qingxia, who decided to be happy after the age of 30, wants to laugh more by herself, "If you laugh more, you’ll get used to it." Now it’s easy: being photographed frowning, the Hong Kong media guessed that she was depressed; her clothes were loose, and the gossip said how she became fat? Lin Qingxia said magnanimously: "I don’t care what they write, as long as the photos are beautiful!" Drinking the handmade rice wine that Lin Qingxia specially brought for him, Jiang Xun’s face was slightly red and he nodded at Qingxia.


    Knowing each other in the world is also a heartfelt beauty. Outside the window, neon lights light up one by one, and Lin Qingxia walks out of the "Dream of Red Mansions" with tears in her smile, rushing to catch a flight back to her "Xing Guofu" overnight.

  Eurozone finance ministers agreed at a meeting in Brussels on Thursday to approve the release of a long-delayed 49.10 billion euro bailout for Greece. Earlier this week, Greece announced the purchase of 31.90 billion euro bonds. The euro group said the bond buybacks and other measures would reduce Greece’s debt to 124% of GDP by 2020, adding that Greece and other euro zone countries were ready to do more if necessary to ensure the deficit target was met.

  Eurozone agrees on common banking supervision.

The movie tells the story of Tiansha Lone Star Flower Qiangu who overcame many difficulties to go to the Fairyland to worship Xianbaizi Painting as a teacher in order to change his fate, and was finally forced to awaken the power of the great wilderness and start a life-and-death confrontation with fate. At the premiere, Xu Muchan, who starred in Ni Mantian, admitted that this role is a great challenge for him, unlike any role he has played before. How to interpret it will convince himself and make the audience more recognized. Xu Muchan also made sufficient preparations for this. From studying the script to figure out the hearts of the characters, repeatedly practicing Weiya movements, and watching clips of various classic villains to learn, he finally presented a cold and decisive Ni Mantian.

In Xu Muchan’s eyes, Ni Mantian is not a simple villain symbol. She has a noble birth, is extremely proud, and has no room for deception in her eyes. Whoever she likes and hates will be on the surface. But because of hostility and obsession, she finally lost everything and is a pitiful person. For such a more "extreme" character, Xu Muchan did not want to play her in the state of a vicious female partner on Facebook. She chose to integrate her own cold temperament and give Ni Mantian a more layered and storytelling overall image of the character, which did receive a lot of praise and encouragement.

Xu Muchan graduated from the performance department of Shanghai Drama Academy. In 2017, he officially entered the entertainment industry because he starred in the role of Yin Caiqian, the naive, straightforward and decisive little sister of the Yin family in the costume drama "Drunk and Exquisite". In the same year, he starred in the sci-fi costume online drama "Tremble, Abe!", in which he played the quirky Duoxing warrior Abe Cha in an alien costume. In addition, in the ancient sci-fi online drama "Tremble, Abe’s Duoxing Fengyun", he challenged one person to play two roles for the first time, playing the cute Duoxing and the kind and gentle Princess Nanyang respectively.

Hengda Automobile Hengchi 5 starts pre-sale, and the "notarized" reservation method creates a precedent

(Wen/Pan Yuchen, editor/Lou Bing) On July 6, Hengda Automobile’s first mass-produced model, Hengchi 5, which was mired in the whirlpool of public opinion and repeatedly bounced tickets, finally started pre-sale, and launched a model. After comprehensive subsidies, the pre-sale price is 179,000 yuan, which will be delivered in October this year.

Hengda President Liu Yongzhuo said at the press conference that the Hengchi 5 is "the best pure electric SUV in history within 300,000 yuan", and will achieve 10,000 deliveries by Quarter 1 next year.

The Hengchi 5 is positioned as a medium-sized SUV, with a body length, width and height of 4725/1925/1676mm and a wheelbase of 2780mm. The exterior design combines elements such as a suspended roof, a guide tail, and a hidden door handle to enhance the stylish and sporty feel of the vehicle.

Inside, the central control of Hengchi 5 is equipped with a wrapping 3D curved triple screen, composed of 10.25-inch instrument panel, 14.6-inch central control screen and 10.25-inch co-pilot screen, built-in Qualcomm 8155 chip, support mobile APP unlocking, facial recognition, 5G network, multi-application synchronization display, Baidu AI voice, gesture operation and other car-machine interaction functions.

The Hengchi 5 is equipped with five millimeter-wave radars, 12 ultrasonic radars, one monocular camera, and four surround-view cameras. It is claimed to be equipped with more than L2-level auxiliary driving, and integrates 19 auxiliary driving capabilities including full-speed adaptive cruise, automatic lane change, and automatic parking.

In terms of power, Hengchi 5 is built on a pure electric platform, using Bosch UMC three-in-one electric drive, with a maximum power of 150kW, a maximum torque of 345Nm, 0-100km/h acceleration of 7.8s. The chassis uses a suspension combination of front McPherson and rear multi-link, and the braking distance of 100-0km/h is 34.5m. Powered by Ningde Times CTP lithium iron phosphate battery, the rated power is 72.8kWh, and the CLTC cruising range reaches 602km.

In order to attract consumers to buy, Hengchi 5 also launched the first 10,000 car users to reduce 10,000 yuan, return and refund within 15 days of picking up the car, and buy back at a 40% discount for three years after picking up the car. It is worth mentioning that Evergrande Auto promises that the pre-sale deposit and final payment will be paid to a special account established by a notary office in Tianjin, in the name of ensuring the safety of consumer funds.

Hengda Motor said that it will use the direct sales and authorized sales agent model to set up Hengchi showrooms and agent stores in major cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Tianjin. This year, the number of stores will reach 200, and 313 after-sales services outlets will be deployed in 235 cities across the country. In terms of charging services, Hengchi APP is connected to 563 domestic charging service providers, covering more than 300 cities in 31 provinces.

For new car-making forces, boasting Haikou at the new car launch is a "basic operation". Compared with Li Xiang’s "best within 5 million yuan" and Yu Chengdong’s "beyond a million luxury cars", Liu Yongzhuo’s expression of "the best pure electric SUV within 300,000 yuan" is quite reserved.

Objectively speaking, the price of Hengchi 5 combined with its product power is quite reliable. The main competitors of Hengchi 5 are concentrated in the price range of 150,000-250,000 yuan, including Volkswagen ID4, GAC Aian V, Xiaopeng G3, Nezha U, Zero Run C11 and many other pure electric SUV models. In terms of configuration level and system parameters alone, Hengchi 5 does have a good price/performance ratio compared with competing products. In addition, a series of operations such as 10,000 yuan for the top 10,000 car users, refund within 15 days, 30% off repurchase in three years, and collection by the notary office are also extremely rare in the history of car sales.

It can be seen that in order to dispel consumers’ car purchase doubts, Hengda Automobile can be said to be heartbroken. But as Murphy’s Law indicates, the biggest test of Hengchi 5’s market prospects is not the product itself, but more from off-site factors.

From Xu Jiayin’s bold words "buy buy buy, big big, good", to Hengda’s release of 6 new cars in one breath, to the market value once exceeded 600 billion, and then to the outside world’s doubts about its PPT car manufacturing and pre-sale repeated delays, Hengda Automobile has gone through two and a half years so far.

With the overall explosion of Hengda Group, the credibility of this new cross-border car manufacturing force has actually dropped to freezing point. In May this year, there were even rumors that Hengda Automobile would delay sales indefinitely. Although Hengda has come forward to refute the rumor on the grounds of the epidemic, it is still difficult to dispel the public’s doubts.

Today’s Hengda car is like the child who kept shouting "wolf is coming". After all, in the heyday of Hengda Real Estate, its football, property insurance, grain and oil, ice spring and other side businesses, which one was not prosperous, and now which one is not a chicken feather? Compared with these, the auto industry is a bottomless pit that burns money. As an outsider, Hengda wants to achieve "the best within 300,000 yuan" in the short term, and the difficulty is comparable to the sky. Moreover, even if Hengchi 5 does sell well in the end, it is difficult to obtain enough bicycle profits based on its current pricing. This also means that it is difficult for Hengda to block the hole of real estate thunder by selling cars in the short term. After the announcement of the pre-sale of Hengchi 5, the market reaction was still rather lukewarm. If Hengda wants to truly turn around, the order performance before delivery will be crucial.
