in the midsize SUV market, in the past two years, there have been the king is not really very good performance in terms of volume, it is Chevrolet’s exploration sector. Indeed, with the rapid changes in the market now, the pressure faced by exploration sector is growing, sales performance very close to nature is not satisfactory.
from the exploration industry’s sales data in 2019 show that, in 12 months, the highest single-month exploration sector’s sales performance was only 05,500, the lowest sales month even sales just over 2,000 units, performance is very general. Fortunately, just recently, the Chevrolet exploration industry’s mid-term facelift also released the news.
that, and compared to the current model, the new car what changes, along with the facelift of the new car, new car sales have a chance to achieve new breakthroughs?
facelift 1.3T engine?
as one of the biggest changes to the new car, it is the driving force declined slightly compared with the current model, the new exploration industry who will replace cash with 1.3T engine the 1.5T models, yes, is that Taiwan is now on Chevrolet and Buick models equipped with a wide range of 1.3T engine, the engine maximum power of 121kW, maximum torque of 240 Nm middot; m.
Further, 2.0T engine will be retained, but also a more significant difference between the outgoing engine, the engine maximum power of 174kW, maximum torque of 350 Nm middot; m, compared with the cash 2.0T engine performance parameters decreased by 17 kilowatts, 3 bovine middot; m. But it is worth mentioning is that this new engine supports closing cylinder technology.
appearance level, compared to the current model and the new model on the details of the design made no small optimization, the biggest change is still concentrated in the front face part of the new car uses a split headlights, the original fog lights position with black decoration, the network also used black color, compared to the current model in terms of new car obviously also toward younger and sporty aspects of the development effort.
Therefore, it is clearSignificant is that the new car change focused on two aspects, one is the optimization and upgrading of the appearance, the second is to change the power system.
sales have a chance to achieve new breakthroughs?
previous article we said the new car will be available for the 1.5T engine facelift 1.3T models, so when the new car sale price level, we might expect there may be some small, if a new car can be a small decline again on the basis of existing price on the face of it a starting price of mid-sized SUV at around sixteen or seventeen million, plus terminal benefits, their competitiveness can be imagined, to know the current model’s starting price of 174,900 yuan.
In addition the design level, from the point of view of adjusting the new car, a new car is obviously not a small upgrade of the young and sports, car more sophisticated than the current model, plus a specially built Chevrolet has always liked young consumers like the RS version, that in the context of such a young, just by virtue of color values, the competitiveness of the new car are not small.
Do not forget, though exploration sector are generally sales performance in 2019, but word of mouth and the consumer base level, in fact, Chevrolet has always been a very good advantage. That changed with the upgrade of new models, so that a change in today’s fast, at young people as the main force in the market, exploration industry’s sales performance a little to look forward to.
