The Ferrari SUV is finally here! New Mercedes-Benz GLC spy photos exposed

Ferrari SUV trailer

Ferrari has finally announced the trailer for its SUV, which will be officially released in the second half of this year. "About to open an extraordinary new chapter" is just a grandiose slogan, the implication should actually be - your (ultra-luxury brand) SUVs are selling so well, I can't help it, but also to make this money.

Yes, even if you are as proud as a Ferrari, there is no need to live with money. However, as a manufacturer focusing on the production of supercars, suddenly built an SUV, and the face was somewhat hanging. So Ferrari called the new car FUV, meaning Ferrari Utility Vehicle, which can be literally translated as Ferrari Utility Vehicle.

Judging from the trailer, it adopts Ferrari's family design concept, the light group shape on both sides of the front is quite SF90 model, and it is equipped with LED daytime running lights inside. Referring to the previously exposed real car map, the details are in line with each other. It can be seen that even if it is an SUV, Ferrari still gives it a very dynamic shape, and has a large size of heat dissipation and vents.

The shape of the tail is also exposed, and the tail light group is four blackened rectangular light groups. Ferrari is slowly abandoning the iconic element of the round taillights. However, the bilateral four-out circular exhaust pipe outlet below still highlights the momentum of the "sports car".

In terms of power, it may be equipped with the same hybrid V6 engine of the 296 GTB, and it is reported that there may also be a version of the V12. The dual-clutch transmission is placed on the rear axle to balance the front and rear counterweights, which is a very "sports car" approach. In addition, a four-wheel drive system is standard.

Recently, overseas media exposed the test spy photos of the new generation of Mercedes-Benz GLC prototypes. It is reported that the new car will be released in 2022 and is expected to be listed in the first quarter of 2023. As a replacement product, the new GLC will be produced on the new platform, with changes in appearance, interior and power.

Although wrapped in a car jacket, you can see that its front face, taillights and the new C-class have many similarities. The current GRC has changed the interior of the taillights from horizontal bars to square lamp beads, which I personally feel is not elegant enough, and the new GLC seems to have changed back to the horizontal tail lights. If the shape is close to the new C-class, it should still look good.

It is reported that the wheelbase of the new GRC will be 15mm longer than the current model, and there are still coupe models. The specifics of the interior are not known, but it is presumable that the new C-class interior will be used. In terms of configuration, the new GLC may have augmented reality navigation, automatic lane change, intelligent parking and transparent chassis.

In terms of power, it is expected that in line with the new C-class, the overseas version of the model will provide a combination of 2.0T engine + 48V motor, in addition to diesel engines and plug-in hybrid models. I hope that the domestic version can also have a 2.0T version, after all, the SUV is heavier and the demand for power is greater. Plus, the new GRC will have air suspension and rear wheel steering options.

Sharper than the headlights, there are vertical strip light groups on both sides of the bumper, which are extremely recognizable. According to the declaration information, Lingyun S will also provide a variety of different styles of front faces.

The official picture does not show the rear of the car, but according to the previous declaration information, it will use through-type taillights.
