● 2019 Editor’s Expectation Reason:Toyota’s sales king in China has finally changed.

"the new corolla iM (American version)"

　　At the new york Auto Show in March, 2018, Toyota released a new generation of Corolla iM (American version), which was built based on Toyota TNGA architecture, led by the latest family-style design concept, and its appearance was more radical.

"The picture shows the new Corolla and Lei Ling."

　　After seeing the American version, the brand-new Corolla sedan and Lei Ling sedan, which were made by Toyota’s two China partners, made their debut together at the 2018 Guangzhou Auto Show (the car released at the auto show was a hybrid version). Of course, the relationship between the two is still a sister car, and the visible difference at present is only in the appearance. Compared with the sedan image of the current models, the new Corolla/Lei Ling is young and avant-garde in appearance.

　　As we all know, the current Corolla is made in China by FAW Toyota and GAC Toyota respectively. In order to distinguish them, they are not only distinguished by the names of Corolla and Lei Ling, but also have obvious differences in appearance. This Gemini strategy did not result in grabbing the market from each other, but successfully met the needs of different consumers, and this strategy was also used by Toyota. The same is true this time. The 12th generation Corolla from TNGA modular architecture and GA-C platform is also made in China by FAW Toyota and GAC Toyota respectively, and its name will still be postponed.

"The picture shows the overseas model."

　　First of all, from the appearance, the front face of the new Corolla is obviously different from that of Ralink. The former does not use the "fangs" headlights of overseas models, while the front face of Ralink is closer to the overseas version. The large grille on the front of the car is eye-catching. The difference is that Corolla is a banner style, while Lei Ling is a mesh design. The simple distinction is that Corolla has a beard and Lei Ling has a moustache.

　　In the rear part, there are still obvious differences between the two cars. Corolla takes a simple route and Ralink is a sporty style. The advantage of this is that you can tell which car is Corolla and which car is Lei Ling at a glance, no matter from the front face or the rear.

　　In addition, the official announced at the launch that the new car will be equipped with the China version of the exclusive 12.1-inch central control panel and PM2.5 filtering system. Compared with the overseas version of the 8-inch screen, this can be said to be considerate of the needs of consumers in China. In terms of configuration, the new car will also be provided with the latest generation of Zhixing interconnection system and Zhixing safety system, of which the latest Zhixing interconnection system will be 100% installed in all future replacement cars of Toyota.

　　The design changes of the new Corolla/Lei Ling are only superficial, and the real transformation is hidden inside. Toyota New Global Architecture is another highlight. The first model of Toyota TNGA architecture is the fourth-generation Prius which was first listed in Japan in December 2015. C-HR and new Camry, which have been listed, are also derived from TNGA architecture. Toyota predicts that before 2021, more than 60% of the sales of Toyota brand models will be products derived from TNGA architecture.

"『TNGA architecture"

　　The concept of TNGA is slightly different from the modular platform adopted by other manufacturers. In addition to modular production, TNGA has formed a more unified whole in the stages of project planning, product design and research and development. Compared with the practice of single model and single platform in the early years, the universal rate of vehicle parts is higher. Therefore, the use of TNGA architecture is undoubtedly beneficial for Toyota to reduce the cycle and cost of product development and manufacturing.

　　The models produced under TNGA will be optimized in power system, body structure, manufacturing technology, suspension system, aerodynamics, NVH performance and ergonomics to further improve the vehicle performance, among which the improvement of power system is the most obvious. However, the powertrains of the new Corolla and Lei Ling have yet to be further announced, and we will continue to follow up the reports.

　　As the sales pillars of Toyota in China market, Corolla and Lei Ling shoulder the heavy responsibility of stabilizing the compact car market, and also lay a solid foundation for Toyota’s expansion in China market. According to the latest data, Corolla sold 35,000 vehicles in November, and this year’s cumulative sales reached 348,300 vehicles; Lei Ling sold 19,900 vehicles in a single month in November, and accumulated 128,900 vehicles this year. It is not difficult to see that the two-car strategy has not affected the sales volume of Toyota compact cars, but each has its own advantages to meet the needs of more consumers and win market share.

　　The appearance change of the new Corolla/Lei Ling is only the most obvious aspect, and the interior configuration and power part have not been announced yet. Judging from the existing information, the changes inside will be drastic and we like it. As for the market performance after listing, I think these two cars will continue their cash sales and seize more compact car markets.

● 2019 Editor’s Expectation Reason:

The most anticipated reason: ordinary family cars also have highlights.

　　In the Mercedes-Benz family, mercedes benz c Class is responsible for the volume, and Mercedes-Benz E Class is used to attract high-end customers. Mercedes-Benz S Class is the jewel at the top of the car pyramid, while Mercedes-Benz G Class is the ultimate off-road artifact. Even small-scale cars such as Mercedes-Benz CLA and Mercedes-Benz CLS have their own distinctive features. However, when it comes to Mercedes-Benz B Class, many people may hesitate. Is it a car or an MPV? Who would buy such a car? Then, taking the opportunity of Mercedes-Benz B-Class replacement, let’s talk about this "passerby A" model.

"2012 Mercedes-Benz Class B"

　　Although Mercedes-Benz B-Class is unremarkable, it can be regarded as the first compact car launched by Mercedes-Benz. To be exact, it is a cross-border MPV of compact car size, which shoulders the historical mission of developing market segments. And since the second generation (2011), Mercedes-Benz has paid more attention to the car demand of China consumers when developing this car, trying to make it a "special car for China". However, at that time, there were not many families who could afford such a luxury car in the domestic auto market, so Mercedes-Benz B-Class was in a state of obscurity for a long time.

　　Some friends may think that since the sales volume is ordinary, the appearance is ordinary, and it is said that it is built for the family and the internal space is ordinary, is there any need for Mercedes-Benz B-Class (the same problem can also be thrown to the BMW 2 Series wagon). The answer is definitely yes. Its existence is not only used to fill market segments and fight against competitors. On the other hand, Mercedes-Benz has a big business. It is not difficult to develop such a car based on Mercedes-Benz A-class platform and general parts (the cost will not be too high). Why not?

　　Then, let’s see if the new Mercedes-Benz B-Class (the third generation) has changed its status as a passerby. First of all, from the appearance, Mercedes-Benz’s latest Sensual Purity design language has been fully accepted by the new B-class. The front of the new A-class makes it look less simple, but more youthful and advanced. Multibeam matrix LED headlights support the functions of curve auxiliary lighting and intelligent far-near light switching, which further strengthens its scientific and technological attributes.

　　Because the wheelbase of the new B-class is 30mm longer than that of the previous generation, its side lines look smoother and more harmonious, and even there are some visual effects of slipping back behind the C-pillar. I think the tail design is the success of this generation of cars. Although the shape is simple, it is at least not so moderate and closer to SUV models such as GLC and GLE. The taillights also have a subversive reconstruction, and the full LED light source is highly recognizable after lighting.

　　Furthermore, the interior of the brand-new B-class car is its highlight moment. The dual-screen design of the central control panel and the instrument is continuously decentralized from the Mercedes-Benz E-class, so that the interior of the Mercedes-Benz B-class can completely get rid of the label of being at home and old-fashioned. In particular, the MBUX system on the 10.25-inch multimedia touch screen is specially tailored by Mercedes-Benz for its compact cars, and the new human-computer interaction system makes the interior layout of Mercedes-Benz B-Class more concise.

　　In addition, referring to the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class, many driver assistance systems (or optional devices) from Mercedes-Benz S-Class are also expected to make the new B-Class take a big step in the direction of intelligent automatic driving, such as active blind zone assistance, automatic lane change function, active brake assistance and so on.

　　In terms of power, the new generation B-class gasoline version is equipped with the same 1.3T inline four-cylinder engine as the new A-class, and adopts cylinder-closing technology, in which the maximum power of the B 180 is 136 HP, the peak torque is 200 Nm, and the maximum power of the B 200 is 163 HP and the peak torque is 250 Nm. The transmission systems are all matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox.

　　At present, the specific introduction time of the new Mercedes-Benz B-Class has not been officially announced, and if there is no accident, with the domestic production of the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class sedan version, the future domestic production process of the new B-Class is just around the corner. The home MPV market of China brand and joint venture brand is gradually maturing from the cultivation period, and more and more populous families are willing to turn their attention to this class of vehicles. I believe that in the near future, with the continuous upgrading of national consumption concept and consumption level, the luxury brand MPV market will also usher in a wave of growth boom.

● 2019 editor’s expectation reason: the most sporty compact car, but it is not known whether it can introduce Chuangchi Blue Sky SKYACTIV-X engine.

　　Mazda’s products always give people the subjective impression of sports and black technology, but compared with Honda, Toyota and Nissan, Mazda, which has a small product line, has not ushered in an exciting new product for a long time. I was fortunate to witness the world premiere of the new generation Mazda 3 at the Los Angeles Auto Show, which opened in November this year. What I want to say is that the Mazda you are familiar with is back.

　　Mazda used to be a symbol of middle-class families in China. Once upon a time, a red mazda 6 drove by, which attracted people to look twice. In today’s market, SUVs are popular, and Mazda has also shifted its focus to SUV products. Even CX-8 was born to fill the market gap left by stopping MPV products in Japan.

　　However, with the release of Mazda VISION COUPE and Kui concept car in October 2017, it is confirmed that Mazda’s research and development of cars has not stagnated. At the same time, with the mass production application of Chuangchi Blue Sky SKYACTIV-X compression ignition engine technology, a new generation Mazda 3 was officially released in November this year.

　　Mazda, under the design of soul movement, has shaped the muscle feeling of the whole vehicle very well, but through the design idea of the latest concept car, Mazda seems to be deliberately slimming. We can’t seem to find the protruding line muscle feeling on the new generation Mazda 3, which is more capable in modeling. The cockpit structure with overall backward movement looks more like a vertical rear-drive vehicle (in fact, Mazda 3 is a horizontal front-drive platform), and the length, width and height of the sedan version are 4662/1797/140 in terms of size. The hatchback version is 4459/1797/1440mm. This is also the first time that I like the sedan version more than the hatchback version.

　　Well, after having a very rare sports appearance design at the same level, the interior design has become an absolute driving attribute. The center console has a design style that surrounds the driver as a whole, and has a minimalist design for the air-conditioning control area. In contrast, the traditional triple instrument panel has a liquid crystal display and a head-up display, and insists on physical hands and dials.

　　The rear space is still not Mazda 3′ s strong point. Although the wheelbase is 50mm longer than the old model to reach 2750mm, the rear leg space is still limited. This is mainly because the design effect of rear drive is pursued in modeling, so the extra wheelbase is not used in the rear space.

　　Needless to say, as the first model of Chuangchi SKYACTIV-X compression-ignition engine, the first new generation Mazda 3 North America version only provides a 2.0L version as a low-profile, with a maximum power of 189 HP and a peak torque of 230 Nm. Equipped with Skyactiv-G engine which is still 2.5L version. This is surprising. We didn’t see a high-powered compression-ignition version of the engine.

　　Recently, a new generation Mazda 3 was released in Italy. In the future, European models will provide a 2.0L Chuangchi Blue Sky Skyactiv-G M Hybrid powertrain. This powertrain adds a 24V micro-hybrid system to the Chuangchi Blue Sky G series, in which the maximum power of the engine is only 122 horsepower, thus reducing fuel efficiency and ensuring emissions. The expected Chuangchi Blue Sky SKYACTIV-X compression-ignition engine is still only available in a 2.0L version.

　　On the whole, at present, Chuangchi SKYACTIV-X compression ignition engine does not seem to be widely promoted, so how will the powertrain be laid out in China market in the future? We are still very much looking forward to whether such a compact sports car full of black technology can regain the hearts of consumers in China market, and it will officially land in China market as a domestic product in 2019.

● 2019 editor’s most anticipated reason: "one and a half" expectations about gearbox and rear suspension.

　　At the press conference of the brand-new Bora, a question popped up in my mind: What about sagitar?

"FAW-Volkswagen Brand New Bora"

　　At the same time, Bora and LaVida completed the replacement this year. Apart from the changes in design, the overall increase in size is an unavoidable topic. As you can see from the table we made above, the new Bora has not only greatly improved in size compared with the old model, but also achieved a comprehensive transcendence compared with the current sagitar, and the wheelbase is more than 37 mm. So, what should sagitar do?

　　As early as January in north american auto show, Volkswagen released a new generation of Jetta models. Jetta overseas is not Jetta currently on sale in China, but Sagitar’s overseas relatives. The new Jetta adopts Volkswagen’s latest family-style front face, such as hexagonal air intake grille and T-shaped elements. The waistline on the side is simple and powerful, which brings a stronger three-dimensional effect with the lines at the bottom.

　　The new generation of vehicles is built on the MQB platform, and its body size is further increased. For example, the wheelbase of the new car has increased to 2685 mm. Did you find something? The wheelbase of domestic brand-new Bora and LaVida has surpassed the overseas version of Jetta. In the future, the sagitar after domestic production can only be lengthened.

　　Overseas Jetta’s interior also adopts the latest design style. You can refer to the new generation Bora for the overall modeling, and the design ideas are the same. Because they are products of the same platform, many of their modules are actually the same. However, by changing the details, such as lines, the new Jetta looks more sporty.　

　　The new Jetta overseas is equipped with more advanced and rich comfort and technology configuration. For example, 10-color LED ambience lights have been added to some models to make them closer to luxury brand products. At the same time, it will be equipped with the latest MIB II information system, BeatsAudio sound system, full LCD screen, mobile phone remote control, automatic emergency braking, blind spot detection, adaptive cruise and lane keeping.

　　On the other hand, the new Jetta overseas is equipped with a newly adjusted 1.4TSI engine with a maximum power of 148 HP (109kW) and a peak torque of 249 Nm. In the transmission system, in addition to matching the 6-speed manual gearbox, it also matches the 8-speed automatic manual transmission.

　　In October, we obtained the new sagitar declaration information from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and the replacement model first appeared in our field of vision. In addition to retaining the overseas design, the biggest change is that the body size of this car is further lengthened: the length, width and height of the new car are 4753/1800/1462mm, and the wheelbase is 2731mm, which is 46mm longer than the overseas version and 80mm longer than the current model. In the power part, the domestic version of the 1.4T engine has a maximum power of 150 HP (110 kW).

　　In fact, there is no suspense about the appearance, interior, engine and space of the new sagitar. This article doesn’t say space? The wheelbase is 80mm longer than the cash. Do you think it will be smaller? As for the 8AT used in North America, it will not be brought to China. For example, Tiguan (Tiguan L) and Atlas (Touran) in the US market all provide 8AT, but they still continue to use the 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox in the domestic market.

　　In addition, the new Jetta overseas adopts the former McPherson rear torsion beam suspension structure. Volkswagen, which has experienced suspension doors in China, will not make any adjustments in domestic models and replace them with multi-link independent suspensions, which is also a matter of concern to many consumers. So for the new sagitar, my expectation is the above-mentioned "one and a half": the gearbox with no big suspense and the unknown rear suspension.

　　As for sales, it is actually the most boring topic. Domestic consumers will not "mistreat" this car. Who makes people Volkswagen and who makes people sagitar?

● 2019 editor’s expectation reason: fill the vacancy of AMG product line’s entry-level performance steel cannon and go to war with Audi S3 head-on.

　　On the eve of the Paris Motor Show, which opened in early October this year, Mercedes -AMG A 35 4MATIC (hereinafter referred to as "A 35") was officially unveiled. This car is a high-performance version of a new generation of Mercedes-Benz A-Class hatchback, which adopts a more combative appearance and interior, and is equipped with a new 2.0T+7DCT power system, with a maximum power of 306 HP and an acceleration time of 0-100km/h of only 4.7 seconds. Competitors locked in Audi S3 and BMW M140i.

　　Compared with the new A-level regular version, A 35 adopts a more radical design style in appearance. First of all, in the front part, on the basis of the new A-class AMG-Line model, the A 35 has been replaced with a front grille with a central double chrome strip and a black bottom guard net, with a large star LOGO, which conforms to the characteristics of AMG models; In addition, the front enclosure of the new car is based on the AMG-Line kit version, adding a more protruding lower spoiler (front lip) and a blade-type side spoiler, which looks more combative.

　　As an entry-level performance version, the A 35 does not add a wide-body fender on the basis of the new A-class, but after lowering the body, its overall posture still has a good visual effect. From the side, we can see that the new car is equipped with a set of AMG-style dense-spoke 18-inch rims, which have different color schemes according to the different colors of the car (such as the yellow car black ring or the blue car gold ring in the picture), coupled with the black side skirt trim, the outer rearview mirror shell, the rear spoiler, and the high-performance braking system with considerable size, which also creates a strong competitive taste.

　　In terms of the rear end, the changes of the A 35 compared with the new A-class AMG-Line suite model are mainly reflected in the top and bottom. First of all, the fixed rear spoiler above the rear window is fighting and towering, with a more complicated diffuser at the rear lip and two circular exhaust ports on both sides. Every detail seems to warn the rear car: "I am not easy to provoke."

　　As for the interior, there is little difference between the overall design of A 35 and the new A-class, and the main changes focus on interior materials and detailed design. Black Artico leather integrated sports seat, the latest AMG three-spoke flat-bottomed perforated steering wheel and carbon fiber decorative bench have improved the sports atmosphere.

　　In addition, the A 35 also continues the new A-class rich scientific and technological configuration, including the AMG theme style full LCD instrument panel+dual 12.3-inch screen of the central control panel. Its built-in MBUX car system also adds AMG TRACK PACE track data recorder, which can maintain and analyze the driver’s track driving data and help him improve the lap speed. In addition, the AMG DYNAMIC SELECT driving mode selection function of the new car provides five modes for selection: Slippery, Comfort, Sport, Sport+ and Individual.

　　In terms of power, the A 35 is equipped with a new 2.0T four-cylinder turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 306 HP and a peak torque of 400 Nm. In terms of transmission, the new car is matched with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox named AMG SPEEDSHIFT DCT 7G and AMG Performance 4MATIC four-wheel drive system. Driven by this power system, the acceleration time of the new car from 0 to 100 km/h is only 4.7 seconds, and the top speed is 250 km/h. In addition, in order to improve the handling of the A 35, AMG has further improved the torsional rigidity of the car body, and the AMG RIDE CONTROL variable suspension with adjustable three-speed damping will also help it better balance the user’s comfort and handling requirements in different use scenarios.

"cash A 45 4MATIC』"

　　At present, the A-class AMG models on sale only include A 45 4MATIC product. Although the extreme power performance of 381 horsepower /4.2 seconds is outstanding, it is still surplus for most consumers. For the A-class hatchback imported at present, a relatively entry-level high-performance model is really needed to fill the "gap" between A 260 (which is in the stage of production suspension and sale) and A 45 4MATIC (which is priced at 463,800 yuan). Therefore, with the opportunity of replacement, a new generation of A-class has come with the newly-added derivative model A 35 4MATIC. Like the overseas Audi S3, it will also launch a sedan version. According to the latest news, the new generation A-class will continue to provide A 45 4MATIC models, and will continue to introduce A 45 S 4MATIC models. The latter has a maximum power of 421 horsepower, and the "breaking 100" time may only take 3.9 seconds! Therefore, the new generation of A-class /A-class AMG will provide a more complete product sequence for different levels of consumers to choose from.

The current Audi S3 is a hot star model in the performance car circle.

　　German brands have a very high market share in the field of high-performance vehicles. In the range of 400,000-700,000 yuan, compact high-performance models include AMG A 45/CLA 45, Audi S3/RS 3, BMW M140i/M240i/M2, Volkswagen Golf R and many other products. Among these models, The most popular and best-selling model is the Audi S3 Limousine, which costs only 371,500 yuan and has a certain discount on the terminal. Its excellent power and technological quality, huge modification potential and outstanding cost performance make this car a hot star model in the performance car circle.

　　Nowadays, A-class AMG will re-align competing products with more subdivided models, with A 35 benchmarking S3 and A 45 benchmarking RS 3, and more direct competition is about to begin. In 2019, the A 35 sedan version will also be launched and introduced into the domestic market, while the overseas versions of Audi A3 and BMW 1 Series will be in the gap period before the big change. At that time, the opportunity for the more intimate AMG A 35 and the more powerful new AMG A 45 to "jointly monopolize" the steel gun market will come. Let’s look forward to it together.

● 2019 editor’s expectation reason: With the blessing of M family design, the visual effect has made a qualitative leap.

　　Good morning Wednesday, everyone. I put me on page six this time, mainly because the magnitude and freshness of this car I am looking forward to are really much lower than the six new cars above. After all, it is only a kit version. However, even if it is a kit version, it is what I am most looking forward to in the compact car that will be listed in 2019! The main reason is that the current BMW 1 Series is too ordinary in design, so ordinary that it has no spirit and no youthful atmosphere.

"Audi A3limousine"

　　To be honest, when BMW Brilliance officially announced that it would launch a 1-series sedan model, I personally looked forward to it. After all, with the launch of domestic Audi A3 in China market, the luxury compact car market seems to be officially opened, and BMW’s intention to follow up and launch a new 1-series sedan version in time is obvious, just to compete for the market.

　　Although the new car is built with a front-wheel drive platform, it is different from the familiar rear-wheel drive BMW. However, as an entry-level sedan, the new car is more likely to attract young consumers to buy in the future, and it is not just necessary for daily travel, but since it comes from BMW, this car has not lost its sports characteristics in the adjustment of chassis suspension.

　　However, after the car was officially launched at the Guangzhou Auto Show in 2016, the flame full of expectations was poured in half, because the design of this car was too flawed. Just let’s take a brief look at this car, which adopts the front face style similar to the current 1 series imported models. The headlights do not adopt the "open corner" design of the current 3 series models, but the LED daytime running lights are still the latest family design. The air inlet at the lower part of the front bumper is like a smiling face, with bright black trim on both sides, which feels that the sporty atmosphere of the car is reduced to some extent.

　　It is difficult to find the shadow of other models in the rear shape of the new car. Its taillights are large, the rounded shape is not as sharp as the taillights of the 3 series, and the overall style is somewhat cute. Of course, you can also say that it is slightly bloated. The two-way exhaust layout under the bumper can only be equipped for 120i/125i models, and the 118i model is only a single-way exhaust layout.

　　It is necessary to vomit here. In fact, consumers are very simple. Choosing BMW brand is nothing more than taking a fancy to the inherent sports genes of this brand. Moreover, this car owner plays a young consumer market, and the price range of this car is 1998-317,800 yuan. Only the bilateral two-way exhaust layout that can show some sports visual effects in appearance only appears in high-end models such as 120i/125i, while the 118i model with a close price is only equipped with a single-sided exhaust layout. This way,

"Interior of BMW 1 Series sedan with low profile"

"Interior of BMW 1 Series sedan with high profile"

　　Turning around and looking at the interior, the center console of the new car is designed to tilt slightly to the driver’s side. The leather multi-function steering wheel is standard for all models, and the 2.0T models will also be equipped with shift paddles. The center console is equipped with a large suspended central control screen, and the middle part is a compact air conditioning and multimedia control area. Of course, the most obvious difference between high and low models is the size of the central control panel, which is 6.5 inches and 8.8 inches respectively.

"Gear handle modeling of BMW 1 Series sedan"

"Electronic gear handle of BMW 3 Series"

　　Because the new car is developed with UKL front drive platform and the engine is matched with Aisin transverse gearbox, the gear handle of this car is the same as X1 and 2 series sports wagons, and it is a simple mechanical gear handle, and its visual effect is slightly inferior to that of other BMW brand electronic gear handles commonly known as "chicken legs" on front and rear drive models.

　　Ok, after understanding the exterior interior of the car, let’s take a look at the BMW 1 Series sedan currently on sale in terms of power, 118i model (19.98-25.78 million yuanIt will be equipped with a 1.5T three-cylinder engine with a maximum output of 136 HP and a peak torque of 220 Nm. 120i model (287,800 yuanIt is equipped with a low-power version of a 2.0T four-cylinder engine with a maximum power of 192 HP and a peak torque of 280 Nm. 125i model (317,800 yuanIt is equipped with a high-power version of a 2.0T four-cylinder engine with a maximum output of 231 HP and a peak torque of 350 Nm. In terms of transmission system, the new car will be matched with a 6-speed automatic manual transmission (118i) or an 8-speed automatic manual transmission (120i/125i).

　　Why do many netizens spit out the BMW 1 Series sedan currently on sale? In the final analysis, it is because the positioning of this car is in a very embarrassing situation. After all, it focuses on the young consumer market. Since they are all young, the main crowd is still those who have just entered the society or worked hard in the society for several years, but having savings does not mean abundant savings. The configuration of low-equipped models is slightly lower, and it is a three-cylinder engine that many consumers can’t accept at present, but they need to pay more savings to buy high-equipped models. However, there are too many competing models that overlap with 287,800-317,800 yuan, which greatly reduces the competitiveness of this car.

"Image source: Internet"

　　In addition, one more thing is that many consumers not only see the quality behind the brand, but also take a fancy to the better "face" that the brand brings to consumers. Just when the BMW 1 Series sedan version entered the market, many travel companies bought a large number of this model and put it into the field of shared cars. This strange move also destroyed the recognition of potential consumers for this model to some extent. After all, most consumers don’t want their cars to become street cars or even "taxis", which will also affect the car purchase demand of some potential consumers to some extent.

　　Through the sales inquiry, the BMW 1 Series sedan version sold a total of 37,842 vehicles from January to November 2018, with an average monthly sales of more than 3,000 units. I believe that such sales data is also unwilling to be seen by the government. Therefore, at the 2018 Guangzhou Auto Show, the BMW 1 Series sedan M sports version was officially launched, and the new car will add sports kits to the details on the basis of the regular version.

　　Specifically, the BMW 1 Series sedan M sports version adopts a brand-new sports kit in appearance, in which the shape of the front bumper draws on the design style of the M series sports model, and the large-size air intake is matched with black trim, which looks sporty. At the rear of the car, the 1-series sedan M sports version also adopts a rear enclosure with a rear diffuser, and at the same time, it is equipped with two exhaust ports on both sides. In addition, the new style of double five-spoke M-sports rims and multiple M-marks on the car body also highlight the differences of the car. In the interior, it has also replaced the latest M family sports steering wheel, and the visual effect has been greatly improved.

"Mercedes-Benz Class A sedan edition"

　　As for the power, I won’t go into details. After all, this is only a kit version, and I have talked about the power parameters of the ordinary version above. At the end, I hope this M-kit can be optional. After all, consumers who can really choose this car can already accept that three-cylinder engine. Why doesn’t the official give some "comfort" in appearance? Of course, I hope that the BMW 1 Series sedan version can be redesigned in the medium term more quickly, and the brand-new BMW family-style design will be put down to this car, just like the Mercedes-Benz A-class sedan version just listed a while ago, and the latest family design language will be adopted both inside and outside, so that consumers can feel "value for money".
