The teaser of the all-new SAIC Audi A7L has been released, showing many details of the car and confirming that the vehicle will be launched soon.
* The car has blackened headlights and black wheels, red brake calipers, and the wheels are an exaggerated 21 inches; The body uses black design elements in many places, and it is expected to be the "Black Samurai Edition" of the **.
The Audi A7L Black Samurai Edition is equipped with a 30T-V6 engine, which has a power reserve of 250kW 500N·m, matched with a seven-speed wet dual-clutch transmission; This combination can drive the car to 5It accelerates to 100 kilometers in 6 seconds, and the performance is quite eye-catching in the same level of fuel-powered cars. It's just that the four-wheel drive system is very different from the standard of the past, and the former Audi quattro four-wheel drive system transfer case uses a "Torsen differential", which has the ability to transfer the front and rear axles in a large proportion; And it can give more power to the wheels with large rolling resistance and less power to the wheels with small rolling resistance, which can effectively improve the vehicle's handling and avoid skidding.
At present, all Audi joint venture four-wheel drive models do not use this differential, and instead use multi-plate clutch limited-slip differentials with a slight advantage in manufacturing costs, and only a few imported models insist on using Torsen differentials.
The change of differential type has brought about a lot of changes, the first change is that full-time four-wheel drive has become four-wheel drive at the right time, and the conventional driving mode is front-wheel drive; The second change is that it can no longer transfer the front and rear axles in a large proportion, and it cannot give more power to the wheels with large rolling resistance, so the handling feeling of the Audi A7L still needs to be experienced by itself. However, fortunately, the imported Audi A7 is also this four-wheel drive system, and the main difference between the imported version and the domestic version is the design of the tail box.
I believe that the debut of the **Audi A7L can play a role in boosting brand sales, so let's take a look at the sales of SAIC Audi A7L and the brand in January. The following data can only be evaluated according to the brand's cognition, and it is known from the previous "communication" that the following data are all best-selling in their concepts.
SAIC Audi has a total of three production models, of which the highest sales are the Audi A7L, with retail sales of 1,036 units in the first month! Sales are significantly ahead of the Audi Q6 and Q5 e-trons. However, these two cars are of course also hot-selling cars in the brand, and the Audi Q6 can deliver 661 units, which is also a pretty good performance; The car uses a very mature MQB architecture, which comes from Volkswagen, and the same platform of the same level models as Volkswagen Tourang, Range Patrol and Range Tour, and the Tourang and Range also have 25T-V6 option, 2The 0T series is, of course, a four-cylinder engine.
The Audi A7L also has 2The 0T series option, but the standard of the A7L 45TFSI series is 180kW 370N·m, and the maximum power is 2 than the Audi Q6The 0T 40TFSI series is 10kW higher, but it is 15kW and 30N·m lower than the 45TFSI series.
With 330 units sold in the first month, the Audi Q5 e-tron is the highest-selling all-electric model in the SAIC Audi brand, and of course the only all-electric model at present. The positioning of this car is low, the starting price is less than 300,000 yuan, and the terminal discount can be achieved from about 250,000 yuan; As a pure electric model, Audi adopts rear-wheel drive and dual-motor four-wheel drive technology, and the handling feeling is better than the front-wheel drive version of the gasoline-powered two-wheel drive version, so the Q5 e-tron still has a lot of potential.
*: SAIC Audi A7L should be able to get enough attention, I believe that the emergence of the sports version can effectively increase sales, the monthly sales of the car is expected to remain stable at about 1,000 units. The Audi Q6 doesn't have to worry about Volkswagen's proven technology, but the Audi Q5 e-tron has the most potential. In the new year, SAIC Audi's monthly retail sales are likely to exceed 2,000 units.
