AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)01/06 Report--

Recently, a group of red flag H6 road test spy photos have been posted online, and the new car is expected to be released in the first half of this year. Judging from the spy photos and naming methods that have been exposed, the body size of the H6 model will be located between the H5 and H7, so it is expected that the H6 will be a luxury medium-sized sedan, but there is also news that the H6 will replace the H7 in the future. Of course, this news has not been confirmed by the Red Flag official, so we'd better wait quietly for the official news about the details.

In terms of design, although the new car is camouflaged, it can still be seen that the design continues the family design language, with a large intake grille and a straight waterfall middle net on the front face, and the LED headlights on both sides make the whole car visually powerful. The side of the body adopts a more conventional ordinary car design, which is quite different from that of H9. The rear of the car has a penetrating design, but the LED light set on both sides of the taillights is similar to the shape of an arrow feather, so it is unique. In addition, you can see that the rear of the new car is equipped with double exhaust, and the whole car looks very sporty.

In terms of interior decoration, the interior design of the new car is relatively simple, using only straight lines. In configuration, the new car adopts a vertical central control large screen design and is equipped with a full LCD dashboard.

In terms of power, the official has not yet revealed that, with reference to the Red Flag H5 and H7, the new car is expected to carry a 2.0T engine and match a seven-speed double-clutch transmission.

As for pricing, it is likely to be in the range of 18-250000, in contrast, it may compete directly with Honda Accord, Volkswagen Passat, Maiteng and other models. Of course, this information is only speculation at present, and the specific parameters need to be officially announced, but there is no doubt that the listing of the new car Red Flag H6 will further subdivide Red Flag's market share in the car sector.

It is worth mentioning that recently, a picture of product planning information about Red Flag has been exposed on the Internet. from the exposed picture information, FAW Red Flag regularized the production of two new SUV models exposed, the two new SUV models are code-named "C206" 7-seat SUV and code-named "C001" 5-seat SUV. According to media sources, the two SUV models will be put into production from the end of 2022 to March 2023 and are expected to be officially unveiled in 2023.

In addition, according to the outflow of information, the seven-seat SUV code-named "C206" is similar to FAW-Volkswagen range and Guangzhou Automobile Toyota Hanlanda, and is expected to match Fengtian Hanlanda, while the five-seat SUV codenamed "C001" is against the luxury entry-level compact SUV such as Mercedes-Benz SUV, Audi Q3 and BMW X1.

In addition, Red Flag LS7 has officially declared that this is the first model of the Red Flag L series and the latest flagship model of Red Flag. The new car will be equipped with a 4.0T engine and is expected to go on sale in the second half of this year. It is understood that L is the flagship product of Red Flag, and many models will be launched in the future, including L5, L3, L1, LS7 and LS3, among which "L" is a car product and "LS" is a SUV product.

As we all know, Red Flag is an independent high-end brand of FAW Group, and its sales target is 400000 vehicles in 2021. However, a few days ago, FAW Red Flag released the latest sales data, showing that FAW Red Flag actually sold 300000 vehicles in 2021. It did not meet its target for 2021 as scheduled.

When inquiring about the brand, the automotive industry learned that the current FAW Red Flag products include the car family composed of E-QM5, H5, H7 and H9, and the SUV family composed of HS5, HS7, E-HS3 and E-HS9. The product system covers 15-700000 yuan in the high-end market, covering fuel and pure electricity. In terms of individual model sales performance, Red Flag HS5 has the highest sales volume, with cumulative sales of 116479 vehicles from January to November 2021, followed by Red Flag H5 and Red Flag H9, with cumulative sales of 71855 and 36844 respectively.

According to FAW Hongqi's previous planning for new car products, it will form four major product camps in the future: h-series (mainstream cars), L-series (supreme cars), Q-series (commercial vehicles) and S-series (supercar). Up to now, all the products on the market belong to H series, which is the main product series of Hongqi brand at present.

In September last year, Wang Guoqiang, deputy secretary of the party committee of one Automobile Group Co., Ltd., also said that all products of the Red Flag brand would be fully electrified by 2030, with a total of 28 new products and total sales of more than 1 million vehicles by 2025. Among them, 15 new energy vehicle products will be launched, and new energy vehicle sales will account for 40% of Hongqi brand's total sales, which will exceed 400000. According to the current performance of Red Flag in the new energy market, Red Flag has only three models: E-HS3, E-HS9 and E-QM5. If Red Flag wants to achieve its sales target as scheduled, it may need to develop more new energy vehicle products in the later stage.

As for the sales target for the new year in 2022, Xu Liuping, chairman of FAW Group, revealed that the Red Flag brand aims to sell 50-600000 vehicles in 2022 and 70-800000 vehicles in the longer term 2025.
