China’s auto market is very unique, foreign car manufacturers want to sell cars in the Chinese market, under the supervision policy, either with domestic firms after the localization of production of automotive joint venture company, or to sell imported cars. To maximize the effectiveness of which is certainly the most advantageous form a joint venture factory. So now many domestic enterprises and foreign manufacturers have formed a joint venture automobile companies, such as FAW – Volkswagen and Shanghai Volkswagen, Guangzhou Toyota and FAW Toyota and so on.
It is in this unique environment, the domestic automobile market there have been some interesting phenomena. There are two brands under one foreign joint venture car factory, a car launched in two versions, a “siblings.” These models show how the brothers do? Here we take a look at some of the relatively high degree of attention siblings What is the difference.
Wei Landa VS put the RAV4 wing
[ 123]
Guangzhou Toyota Wei Landa is said to be available in April 2020, is now open sale, sale price range of 170 000 -25 million. FAW Toyota RAV4 put Rong sister model, it is following the eighth-generation Camry, C-HR and the new Ralink, the fourth member of the Toyota Camry TNGA family. Rong Wei Landa with FAW Toyota RAV4 put TNGA-K also based on a newly developed high-end platform, it can be said to be south and the north of the two twin models.
two emphases each car’s exterior, wherein the discharge wing RAV4 look more tough atmosphere, while others look Wei Landa rounded and smooth, two-car design style vary. In the body size, two substantially almost the same car, on the car Wei Landa long wing aspect compared RAV4 extra 65mm, the remaining data is roughly equal.
Since it is one of the twin RAV4 models, Wei LandaMechanical qualities and put exactly the same wing, equipped Camry and Lexus ES consistent TNGA-K platform. Power is also a 171 horsepower, 209 Nm of self-priming and synthesis 2.0L 221 hp power hybrid 2.5L, respectively and matched E-CVT transmission CVT, there are two drive and three four-wheel drive system selection. Anyway, I put some glory, like a lot Wei Landa.
Wei Landa is Guangzhou Toyota’s first in the Chinese market localization to build SUV models, it is longer than the wing put the international version of the RAV4, and the price is likely to be more low, there is reason to believe that the car will be listed on the new RAV4 wing put a strong opponent. However, to go beyond the already deep in the Chinese market has long been big brother, Wei Landa also need to accumulate a certain reputation.
Honda CR-V VS Hao Movies
first appearance. Movies can see Hao design is more “urbanized” Some, pull lower front face, a bottom side surface is paint color, and CR-V with a black plastic. Hao shadow rear than CR-V has changed a lot, the L-shaped end of the tail light lamp turned black, and column D integration, high current design of this positive feedback.
In addition Hao film also features a Magic Night Black Edition version, but the version is not a magic night color, but the binding of several high profile level. The overall feel of the CR-V is more adaptive, more biasing Movies and refined white line in the design.
In power, the power of the white film with the same CR-V, are equipped with third-generation hybrid system i-MMD and 1.5T turbocharged engine, both the maximum power of 158kW and 142kW.
As one compact SUV dominant, CR-V biggest advantage is accumulated good mouthMonument, making it basically invincible in China. Although the shadow younger Hao, size is also larger, as a latecomer, consumers will have more choices, but now the preferential CR-V will be even greater.
Usage Yue VS Probe song
FAW – Volkswagen exploration song and SAIC public transit Yue, the same MQB although they belong to the compact SUV, based on platform to build, same wheelbase. However, if divided by personality, then, T-ROC exploration song more passion and vitality; and Yue way, it seems that a few more stable, law-abiding, the front face grille, display their mature side.
is positioned on, is more suitable for home Yue way, the song tends to explore the young, thus two models considerable differences in the design, but also the size of the way Yue bigger.
As the same platform, the same level of products, Volkswagen powertrain, it should be more familiar with it, power, fuel consumption, stability do not need to worry too much. But on product differentiation, there are two different logic. There are three songs explore the entire department a total displacement of eight models to choose from, including 1.2TSI, 1.4TSI low-power and high-power three kinds of power output, the price of 135,800 yuan from 203,800 yuan until the top models.
Comparative Yue way that the whole system is a combination of two power, and 1.4TSI 2.0TSI, a total of seven models available, the price range of the whole system 16.58-22.38 million. Although some models overlap, but the higher price threshold way Yue, top with the price higher than the 20,000 in the 1.4TSI power. For consumers seeking cost-effective, exploration song is a good choice, but also power, space is enough.
[summary] regardless of the performance of these models, the manufacturers ‘siblings’ strategy will undoubtedly give consumers more right to choose, but also easier for consumers to choose their own models, which, consumers still loved.
