➤ time ago, a group of public Internet emerge CC spy factory. The spy CC is not simple, it has the features of two distinct from the sale cash CC:
a, which is a travel version CC.
Second, it has a body surrounded Crossover kit.
▲ images from the network, poor clarity I apologize
and this group of spy photos from the FAW – Volkswagen factory outgoing, combined with last year November FAW – Volkswagen announced VW483 / 1 model white body off the assembly line, as well as the general public has not been introduced Arteon travel version of the news overseas, we determine the probability of a large car Touring CC is a model specifically for the Chinese market.
tender notice has gradually taken shape
As early as March 2019, FAW – Volkswagen VW483 / 1 project tender notice has emerged. Given the current sale of the CC coupe version number inside the popular series of VW483, model codenamed VW483 / 1 of the CC is almost certain derivative models.
in fact has also been revealed in the tender notice, the tentative name of this model is CC Shooting Brake, which is hunting CC version.
everyone on safari version of the word should not unfamiliar, hunting version is actually another name for travel version.
There are purists friends will say, define both hunting and travel edition version with the initial purpose has produced subtle differences, in fact, rutting monarch can also tell you where they are subtle differences in.
we can go to search all ages to themselves as Shooting Brake models (in fact, mainly CLS and the CLA hunting version), you will find that they are invariably adopt wagon frameless windows.
therefore also uses the frameless windows FAW – Volkswagen CC derived from the travel version of the time, it will naturally be called the CC Shooting Brake. But taking into account the original wagonIt is not a body mass category, and travel and safari edition version of the body structure is no different different, so let’s collectively travel version just fine.
below will yet have a clear naming of VW 483/1 collectively referred to as CC wagon.
special for the wagon, FAW – Volkswagen crazy?
whether the FAW – Volkswagen or SAIC Volkswagen, have a strong R & D capability models, after all, the mass market in China is “more children good fight” strategy, models very intensive, relying on overseas original the introduction of models is not enough.
In fact, you’ll find FAW – Volkswagen and Shanghai Volkswagen introduced its truly original model has been very small.
only SAIC Volkswagen Polo and Touran L, FAW – Volkswagen only golf, golf middot; Kerry tours and CC, especially for the car much more than the non-specific for the car.
Therefore, FAW – Volkswagen has launched a special thing for the car, not a surprising.
In fact, for the FAW – Volkswagen, the CC launch Travel Edition is not a crazy decision. Previously there have been similar cases, is more familiar Wei collar, which is based on Polaris to build a cross-border station wagon, from the two main features of the transformation point of view, highly consistent with CC Wei collar travel version.
difference between the two is that the collar Wei prototype Polaris itself is a special market for Chinese cars, while CC is an original model introduced, but the introduction of time for a name, CC’s overseas original model called Arteon.
But Wei led the market reaction was harvested, positioning higher CC wagon to be successful it?
take a look at the life trajectory CC
As early as 2009, with “the most beautiful in the history of the public,” said the CC had been introduced into the Chinese market, was first imported 3.6L models, with the R36 is the same section of the engine, priced as high as 50 million or more. 2.0TSI models in late 2009 imports, the threshold CC cars are down to less than 400,000.
At that time CC Siwushiwan this price range with the BMW325i substantially coincide, so it is still quite expensive, ha.
soon in 2010, FAW – Volkswagen at top speed to this beautiful public domestic, were equipped with 1.8TSI and 2.0TSI engine, the price range of 25.28 ~ 299 800 yuan.
Mass best made once, causing a great sensation, has emerged in the period of time for (Jia) without (Jia) should be (ti) required (Che) case. At that time, the street does not open a CC (ie, the BMW 3 Series and the like) than a low-key luxury brand similar models, because CC is a coupe, while the coupe at that time was a very rare concept .
have frameless windows always manifest in CC open the door the moment the owner of the distinctive taste, now with the words to describe it is to force the grid.
this kind of stunning models in the history of most of the escape a fate that could not hold a half-day hold a replacement model, perhaps because of this pursuit of the ultimate beauty the car has run out of the top of that last handful of inspiration that a handful of designers mind.
The same examples are the first generation Land Rover Range Rover Aurora, you’ll find just launched the second generation of the Aurora last year than before simply just a perfunctory of boring merchandise.
and thus B6 generation Passat CC launch of the year, on behalf of the B7 Passat comes only a slight change to change the head and tail, but this is small change, yet the CC beauty is not left to eat, described as “Seven Wonders . ”
Finally, after the launch of B8-generation Passat, Volkswagen once again brought the most beautiful public. Only this time, the public may want to reposition this beautiful mass, and therefore changed the name, called Arteon. Overseas, Arteon positioning is indeed very high, do not sell cheap than the Audi A5, is a typical VW luxury car brand.
and in the Chinese market, this follows the Volkswagen CC is the most beautiful name, market positioning and pricing about the same with the first generation CC. Just less than before, the Accord can fastback, Po Chun can coupe, CC shoutingCoupe concept to fry, not so so that the.
Although the rut and no contact Arteon Jun overseas edition, but some information may be found in high overseas edition Arteon positioning statement is evidence-based. Alternatively, for example, four-wheel drive system Arteon Overseas, there are high-power 272 hp engine 2.0TSI Alternatively, the FAW – Volkswagen the CC, and only the 186 hp 220 hp power 2.0TSI two lower, and does not provide four optional drive system.
to understand a little rough, FAW – Volkswagen CC, looks just a little bit of wind to pull Magotan, overseas Arteon connotation is richer than a magotan coupe. In 2019, CC total sales in the Chinese market less than 24,000, months are less than 2000, really is not really a popular car.
and from the driving experience point of view, CC and also there is no attractive place, Magotan it has some shortcomings, the configuration is not too high. So today, with a CC, really it is better to get down to buy a BMW 3 Series.
Why is CC?
So the question is, FAW – Volkswagen CC Why choose to launch travel Edition models?
we think there are several reasons:
First of all, CC is the FAW – Volkswagen family locate the highest car.
launched on the basis of travel version of the CC, to further improve the brand image, and rich brand image. Because the wagon in the country in addition to the practical value of its own, has been more of a feeling. People are not necessarily all year round to buy a station wagon drove his station wagon to travel, just a station wagon than a car or SUV should be a little more exotic life.
Second, why not choose to magotan corresponding travel version (that is currently imported in the sale of Wei Lan), probably because everyone Wei Lan also more familiar with, domestic and it can not bring freshness. Moreover, the current price of imports after Wei Lan also offer very competitive, you can tell magotan domestic Yipin, this time it is not conducive to future domestic sales.
The most important reason, orXu still hopes to lift sales of cars to CC, not months to 2000 results, apparently FAW – Volkswagen dissatisfaction.
CC crock circumstances can bring up?
Indeed, the country has a better climax friends chatted on the wagon, but CC can make travel version of the future is bright yet? not necessarily.
A lot of people just talk to the station wagon will be excited, but really want to buy time to say good-bye, of course, part of the reason is the station wagon were few options, had yet to be one of the few manufacturers wagon meal packaging, to sell at high prices, in the end not sell can not blame those who want to buy but can not buy to start with.
By convention the public, to the CC when traveling version of the official listing, pricing certainly not too low, at least not cheaper than CC. The CC, already not cheap.
The best results were traveling version of the CC and CC the price the same, that the king would issue a rut and tortured soul: CC and CC Wagon let you choose one, you choose?
I guess this question in front of Chinese consumers, who choose CC may be more. Despite the addition wagon has more feelings, but for the CC, the coupe is its true nature. There are often overlooked point is, CC this hatchback coupe, practicality is not necessarily worse than the wagon. Hatchback trunk is very easy to use, especially not lose in depth performance wagon, but not as good as the height of the station wagon, and we should all be more used to the depth of the trunk.
so the election or to vote for conventional version travel version this problem CC on the body in the case of prices were flat, like other models may not be as one-sided toward the wagon.
this number so that the number of CC Touring become somewhat tasteless.
After all, plus a little on the CC budget price point, you can buy a luxury brand wagon, such as the Audi A4 Avant, the Volvo V60 and so on.
wagon luxury brands also are imported identity, regardless of the brand or quality degree, have a higher basis. More importantly, the luxury brand wagon GenzhengMiao Hong, CC and travel version, the final analysis was a special products.
Although the CC version of this car travel product strength may be reasonable, but buy a wagon itself feelings addition, it is a special for the car, to see the FAW – Volkswagen how to convince myself the user. Shi
