AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)04/14 Report--
As the Mercedes-Benz brand plans to achieve low engine emissions for its entry-level models, it has announced that it will carry its 1.3T engine on its soon-to-be-listed compact SUV GLA. According to the latest news released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the new generation of Mercedes-Benz GLA will launch 1.3T high-power and low-power versions at the same time.
From the latest declaration information released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, we can see that the Mercedes-Benz GLAs will include two configurations of 180 and 200 4MATIC. The appearance of the continuation of the overseas version of the car design, the overall shape is closer to the GLC design, using the triangular Mercedes-Benz latest headlamp design language, and more rounded than the cash.
In addition, there are some differences in the appearance design for different versions of the model, such as the shape around the front and rear and the style of the middle net, such as the color of the rearview mirror shell, the color of the door handle and so on.
In terms of size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4427/1834/1610mm and the wheelbase is 2729mm. The wider, taller but shorter body ratio makes it visually more compact and more SUV-like. In addition, the wheelbase increase of the 30mm also makes the new GLA look longer and more stable.
The interior design of the new car is also expected to continue the overseas version, but it has not been exposed yet. The high-end model uses a double 10.25-inch instrument plus central control conjoined LCD screen design, but the metal sports steering wheel like the overseas version may not be used.
As the new model only introduces high and low power versions in power, according to the information, the GLA 180 model is a low-power model with a maximum power of 100kW with a 7-gear double clutch transmission, while the GLA 200 is a high-power model with a maximum power of 120kW. The engine is also the same as the new GLB, another of its models.
However, for example, the overseas version has joined the AMG set version, but it does not appear in this declaration information. It is speculated that the 2.0T power version it carries may not be carried on domestic models.
Although Mercedes-Benz GLA has been in China for a long time, from the equipment of the new GLA model and configuration, I wonder whether Mercedes-Benz hopes to squeeze the price by reducing more configurations, so that the starting price of the model is as low as possible, so that it can have a greater advantage with similar gold car insurance such as BMW X2, Audi Q3, Volvo XC40, Lexus UX and so on.
After all, the current layout of Mercedes-Benz in the SUV market has covered many market segments, and Mercedes-Benz has joined the GLB model between GLA and GLC to improve competition in the Chinese market.
Of course, for entry-level models of small emissions, will also attract a lot of "negative" news, after all, as a luxury model, such as the configuration has been gradually inferior to many joint ventures or even independent models, there is no doubt that the reduction is their own reputation for luxury.
Affected by the epidemic, Mercedes-Benz accumulated sales of 477400 vehicles in the global passenger car market in the first quarter, down 14.9% from the same period last year, but it is already the model with the smallest decline among domestic luxury brands. Beijing Mercedes-Benz sold a total of 113000 vehicles in the first quarter, down 18.5% from a year earlier, and is the only luxury brand in the domestic passenger car market to enter the top 10, according to data from the Federation of passengers.
