AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)01/14 Report--
Dongfeng Citroen, whose sales are falling off the cliff, has a very low sense of existence in the market. The characteristics of French romantic design are likely to gradually move away from the Chinese market, and the brand is facing the crisis of delisting. At this critical moment, Dongfeng Citroen needs a popular product more to enhance its brand image and further boost sales data. However, the manufacturer gave a work with a strange shape, and netizens shouted "disappointment".
At the end of last year, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology released the declaration chart of Dongfeng Citroen's new model C3L. A few days ago, we obtained the real car picture of the car in the factory, which further confirmed that Dongfeng Citroen will put the car on the market in mass production.
Dongfeng Citroen C3L uses a very rare cross-border hatchback SUV style design, the shape is very unique. Because the design of this kind of model is not common, and the degree of consumer acceptance is not high, so it is more challenging to see it for the first time.
Guess from the model name, Dongfeng C3L C3L is based on the transformation of C3-XR, the design of the two front is basically the same, the headlamp is placed on the extension line of Citroen herringbone LOGO, and the grille is similar to honeycomb shape, which is also the latest family design style of Dongfeng Citroen at present.
The side is the most controversial part of the car. Dongfeng Citroen C3L has the body of a hatchback, while maintaining the chassis clearance of the SUV, which is the most distinctive part of the car. In terms of details, the wheel eyebrows and side skirts are surrounded by black plastic, which is also a feature of the SUV model, while the rear window is decorated with black corners. The shape of the rear of the car is simple, almost the same as the trunk of a hatchback.
In terms of body size, the length, width and height of Dongfeng Citroen C3L are 4505/1748/1513mm and the wheelbase is 2655mm, which is consistent with the wheelbase of C3-XR.
There is no doubt that the interior of the new car is the same as the C3-XR, and the overall shape of the center console is regular.
In terms of power, the Dongfeng Citroen C3L will be equipped with a 1.2T three-cylinder engine codenamed HN11, with a maximum power of 116hp and a peak torque of 190Nm, matching the latest six-speed double-clutch transmission, which is the same as the current C3-XR. The price of the C3-XR 1.2t model is 10.89-117900 yuan, and the C3L is expected to be in this price range.
Many netizens believe that the car "has all the characteristics that no one has bought"; at the same time, some netizens said that this is the rhythm of breaking cans.
Dongfeng Citroen C3L has a strange shape, but this alternative design may not be recognized by many consumers, coupled with consumers' rejection of three-cylinder models, or compromise on price in order to get the attention of some consumers.
DPCA, which owns both Dongfeng Peugeot and Dongfeng Citroen brands, sold only 113579 vehicles in 2019, down 55% from the same period last year, of which Dongfeng Citroen accounted for a relatively low proportion. Netizens' views represent its future market performance to a certain extent. Perhaps the leaders of Shenlong listen more to the voices and suggestions of consumers and make practical and effective improvements to the products in order to have the hope of turning around.
