Toyota Corolla丨Lei Ling Guide Price:10.58-17.28/11.58-152,800

The current Corolla is available in two versions in the Chinese market, namely the FAW Toyota Corolla and the GAC Toyota Leiling. In terms of powertrain, it is already difficult to buy the 1.6L self-aspirated version, and now there are only two powertrains in the whole series, one is the gasoline version of the 1.2T turbocharged engine (9NR-FTS) with a CVT transmission, and the other is the hybrid version of the 1.8L naturally aspirated engine (8ZR-FXE) with a 53kW electric motor. Between the gasoline version and the hybrid version, we prefer the hybrid version, not because the gasoline version is not good enough, but because the hybrid version is better in terms of product power. Compared to the gasoline version,...

Honda Civic Guide Price:115,900-169,900

The 8th-generation Civic, launched in 2006, was once very popular in the Chinese market, but the 9th-generation Civic is a sunken generation, so the 10th-generation Civic is a facelifted model. In fact, it is an American car designed and developed entirely in the United States for the American market, but with a Honda logo on it. The car was released in the U.S. at the end of 2015, and Dongfeng Honda introduced it to the Chinese market in 2016. This generation of Civic has two highlights, one is the appearance and the other is the powertrain. Since this generation of Civic was designed by the American department, the style is completely different from the previous Japanese home. ...

Volkswagen Golf Guide Price:119,200-234,200

The Golf is Volkswagen's legendary model and the largest selling Volkswagen, with nearly 30 million units sold worldwide over the decades, second only to the Toyota Corolla and Ford F pickups. The seventh-generation Golf facelift is currently on sale, and it is generally referred to as the seventh-and-a-half-generation. The public is extremely cautious about golf improvements, for fear that any reckless changes will lose the feel of golf. The seven-and-a-half-generation has not changed much from the seventh-generation, but it is easy to distinguish the high-end and low-profile models from the appearance, and the LED light source will only appear above the sub-top configuration, that is, at least the R-Line will have LED lights. ...

Hyundai Lingdong Guide Price:99,800-146,800

Hyundai Lead's sixth-generation Elantra was officially launched in China in March 2016 at the 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show. Hyundai's product layout in China can be confusing, if you walk into the Hyundai 4S store in Beijing, you will see three Elantra with different names on sale at the same time, they are Yuedong (4th generation Elantra), Langdong (5th generation Elantra) and the latest Lingdong (6th generation Elantra). The latest generation of Elantra Lingdong is equipped with 1.6L naturally aspirated and 1.4T turbocharged engines, of which the 1.6L version is equipped with Paiwotai's 6AT, and the 1.4T version is equipped with a dual-clutch transmission.

Modern Festa Guide Price:119,800-154,800

Festa is a special car launched by Beijing Hyundai for the Chinese market, which first appeared at the Beijing Auto Show in April 2018, it shares the same platform as Lingdong, but in Hyundai's product line, it is between Lingdong and Sonata, which is the so-called A-class sedan, and the official intentionally or unintentionally set the Honda Civic as the benchmark model. In terms of design, the designer of Festa is Lee Sang-yeol, vice president of design at Hyundai Group, and adopts a new design DNA, which is officially called the dragon scale grille, and the style is much more radical than before, and does not conform to the mainstream aesthetic. As for the part of the body, it makes ...

Nissan Tiida Guide Price:99,900-134,900

The Nissan Tiida is a model with a complex identity. Nissan unveiled the first-generation Tiida in 2004, and due to the alliance between Nissan Motor and Renault of France, this car shares the Nissan B platform with the second-generation Renault Mgane and the third-generation March, and is an extended version of the wheelbase of the two.

Nissan Sylphy Guide Price:119,000-149,300

There are actually two Sylphys currently on sale, one is called Sylphy Classic, which is essentially the second generation of Sylphy launched in 2006, and the other is the third generation of Sylphy launched in 2013. After the launch of the third-generation Sylphy, the old model gradually faded out of the market, until 2016, when it was sold again under the name of the classic Sylphy and the third generation. Although the classic Sylphy replaced the previous 4AT transmission with a CVT transmission, and the powertrain is not much different from the third generation, the whole model is already a product of the last decade and cannot meet the current safety needs, so we do not recommend buying it. However, it is precisely because the model is relatively old, and the price is higher than the first...

Buick Veran Guide Price:135,900-185,900

At present, the new Yinglang in the Chinese market is a mid-range compact car independently developed by SAIC-GM, and the replacement product of the previous generation Yinglang has been renamed Weilang, which is half a level higher than Yinglang, and shoulders the responsibility of Buick's high-end compact car in China. The current Yinglang has been replaced by a three-cylinder model, and the Valeant still maintains a full range of four-cylinder models, namely the L3G 1.5L naturally aspirated engine on the 15S model, with a maximum horsepower of 118 hp, a maximum power of 146 Nm, and a 000 acceleration score of about 13 seconds, and the LFV 1.5T turbocharged engine on the 20T model, with a maximum horsepower of 169 hp and a maximum torque of 250 Nm...

Ford Focus Guide Price:108,800-150,800

The Focus used to be Ford's top model in China, but after the mid-facelift of the third generation, sales have been much worse than before, in this case, Ford launched the fourth-generation Focus in an attempt to save Ford's decline in China, but the situation does not seem to be optimistic, and the market response after the launch is quite lackluster. Since the mid-facelift of the third generation, the Focus has used a Martin face similar to that of the Aston Martin, and the whole design is very flattering. The fourth-generation Focus continues to use the Martin face, the meaning of inheritance is very strong, and the sedan version is specially created for China.

Buick Yinglang Guide Price:115,900-143,900

Most of GM's car lineup in China is a mess. Yinglang is a new car launched by GM's Buick brand in China, but it continues to use the same English name as the Buick Excelle, with the hatchback version called Excelle GT and the sedan version called Excelle XT. Now Buick is determined to stop production of Kaiyue with the determination of a strong man to break his wrist, and Yinglang is the entry model of the Buick brand to achieve the rise of Buick's brand image, but another cousin of Yinglang, the higher positioning of Valeant, has emerged again, so Yinglang's positioning has sunk and become a practical compact car. The previous generation of Yinglang was actually...

Volkswagen Speed Guide Price:128,900-191,900

The Volkswagen Sutar is very controversial in China. On the one hand, it has long been the benchmark for compact cars, requiring price increases and waits in most parts of the country, and the pricing level remains high to this day. On the other hand, it is accompanied by a variety of quality problems, and the design flaws of the previous generation Sutar suspension system have caused consumers to queue up in front of the 4S store again after buying the car. Starting from the fifth-generation Jetta, this series was named Sutar in China, produced by FAW-Volkswagen, and the Sutar currently on sale is the sixth-generation Jetta, which was launched in China in 2012 and remodeled in 2014.
