Today, according to the China Patent Network, the patent map of the design of a new Selis car has been disclosed. As the manufacturer of the new car, the disclosure of the patent map of the appearance of the new model has also triggered many netizens' speculation that the new car may be the M8.

As can be seen from the patent diagram of the exterior design of the new car, the appearance of the new car adopts a closed design, with a circular light belt in front of the car, combined with the rear penetrating type to highlight the sense of movement of the vehicle. The side of the body is equipped with a hidden door handle and a lidar on the roof, which greatly enhances the scientific and technological sense of the vehicle.

The disclosure of the patent map of the design has also attracted the attention of many netizens, some netizens commented: it is said that this is the question of M8? I don't believe it, but it feels like it's real! This design is too different from the M9, isn't it the little M9? Some netizens also pointed out that many patents are applied for and do not necessarily get on the bus. Think that the M8 may still be a family design, because the front face of a different design, no good.

In addition, a car blogger also made a prediction of the shape based on the patent map exposed on the Internet. As can be seen from the restored images released, the blogger provides two different design styles for the front face of the M8, the two styles of double light belt position design are highly recognizable, and the rear part of the car uses the through taillight design, which looks a little similar to the ideal L7 front face.

The data show that the question is a brand launched jointly by Cyrus and Huawei. At present, AITO is selling new M7, new M5, M9 and other models, covering the model market with a price range of 200000 to 600000 yuan. Among them, the launch of the new M7 is a popular style, and the data show that the cumulative sales of the new M7 in the first half of 2024 are 106540. As a model M9 launched at the end of last year, it was favored by the market as soon as it was put on the market, and it became the main sales model of AITO in just a few months. Official figures show that the M9 has accumulated more than 160000 units since its launch.

Thanks to the surge in sales of the M9 and the new M7, Cyrus made a turnaround for the first time this year. According to the official financial report, Selis's operating income in the first half of the year was 65.044 billion yuan, an increase of 489.58% over the same period last year, and the net profit belonging to shareholders of listed companies was 1.625 billion yuan. For reference, it lost 1.344 billion yuan in the same period. This month, officials also released a profit forecast for the first three quarters of 2024, which is expected to achieve operating revenue of 103 billion yuan to 110 billion yuan, up 518 percent to 559 percent from a year earlier. The net profit belonging to the shareholders of the listed company is expected to be 3.5 billion to 4.1 billion yuan. Cyrus said the main reasons for the earnings forecast included significant growth in revenue and sales, over-fulfillment of the doubling plan, and an increase in the scale of sales of high-value products. In addition, we will adhere to software-defined automobile and technological innovation, improve the efficiency of operation and management, increase gross profit margin compared with the same period last year, and improve profitability.

According to official news, in the second half of this year, the brand will release a new model, the M8, located between the M7 and M9, in order to further enrich the product line. This time, as for the true identity of Cyrus's new car, some netizens believe that the patent map of the new car released by Selis is not a question of M8, because the design style of the new car is different from that of M9, or Cyrus is the new car of its blue electric brand. Of course, it has yet to be officially announced whether the vehicle is the M8 in the end.
