Previously, the Smart brand officially released the Smart Genie #1 concept car in the Chinese market, heralding the latest domestic production process of the new car, and the mass production version is the domestic version. Despite the suspension of the smart logo, whether it is from the appearance or power configuration, it is obviously two different concepts from the smart we recognize.
In the same way, the process of domestic MINI has also accelerated, and the beam car previously exposed is a new joint venture product of BMW and Great Wall, which will be responsible for the production of some pure electric models under BMW and Great Wall in the future.
Recently, some media have exposed the new domestic MINI's unmasking real car map, which is expected to be officially rolled off the production line and listed next year, but it also does not rule out the adjustments made before the mass production of the new car. However, it is basically certain that the MINI will be electrified after the domestic production, and the first model is based on the MINI COOPER SE in overseas markets.
This is bmw MINI, flowing with British royal blood, the meter-shaped taillight group is exclusive to the high-end crowd, and the damn various limited edition models are not affordable for ordinary people. But after the domestic production, it may be different, first of all, there is no fuel version.
In addition, from the perspective of the exposed new car, after the full pure electricity, its shape has also been adjusted, the closed front face with a round headlight group, but the cute love is there, but the design is too simple, and even looks a little less smart, and the overseas version of the plug-in hybrid model Gap is still quite large.
Especially at the rear of the car, the taillights of the meter flag should not be extravagant, and the newly designed headlight group, the light cavity adopts a grid-like shape, and is connected by a black decorative strip.
In addition, although the new car retains the MINI logo, round headlights, large size circular central control screen and other highly recognizable elements, it has lost the taste of MINI.
As for the power performance, at present, we can only refer to the MINI COOPER SE, the Cruising range under EPA conditions is 177km, but it will definitely improve after domestic production. Moreover, even if the Great Wall and BMW join forces, the electric drive electronic control is still BMW's technology, and the most share power battery suppliers with the Great Wall.
Written in the end: BBA in the country that is a line of luxury, but Smart and MINI domestic production, feel better than the current parallel imports.
