Xingrui slogan

Speaking of domestic brand medium-sized cars, which one do you think of first? I think young friends will think of Geely Borui, Hongqi H5, Chuanqi GA8 and Changan Ruicheng CC. However, for the post-70s, post-80s or older groups, I think the B70 owned by FAW Pentium is a classic they can't get rid of!

As the first product of FAW Pentium to enter the passenger car market, this model is positioned as a mid-level car? Pentium B70 was the star model of the mid-level car camp at that time. Relying on the mature technology of the old mazda 6, even at the beginning of listing, the slogan of "the only independent high-end car in China" was put forward. However, the cruelty of competition in the mid-level car market is not what it used to be. Even though Pentium has upgraded it, this classic model has slowly withdrawn from the historical stage without the support of Mazda's mature and reliable power system and other selling points.

Fortunately, "there is no doubt about mountains and rivers, and there is another village." Since Xu Liuping took office in FAW, not only has Hongqi brand opened a new chapter, but Pentium brand, which has also achieved brilliant history, has also ushered in a new life. The Pentium B70, which seems to be a bit senile, has finally ushered in its third-generation product. So, what changes have taken place in the new generation Pentium B70? Will there be a return of the king? Let's take this opportunity to get to know each other.

As a replacement model, the new FAW Pentium B70 is brand new from the inside out. First of all, on the production platform, the new Pentium 70 is based on a new technical architecture-infinite equation FMA architecture. In the future, the platform will be fully promoted among the independent brands of FAW Group, and even the Hongqi brand will build some products on the platform, which shows the importance of the new Pentium 70 to the whole FAW Group. In order to make this pioneer an instant hit, the new Pentium B70 is fully prepared in appearance, interior configuration and power system.

Take the most basic appearance value as an example. In order to cater to the young tide of the current automobile consumption market, the new Pentium B70 has adopted a brand-new design language of "sexy surface of light and shadow philosophy" in its design concept. The front air intake grille adopts a hexagonal big mouth structure, with 74 digital rain curtain-type middle nets as embellishments, and with the "Ge"-shaped full LED headlight groups on both sides and chrome-plated through sports front bumper, it creates a young and fashionable visual effect for the whole vehicle. Of course, at first glance, you may think that this front face looks a bit like Cadillac, but its exquisite details still give this new car a unique charm, so it is absolutely untenable to say that it is a "cottage".

Coming to the side of the new car, it can be seen from the real car that the new Pentium B70 has added the popular slip-back element, and the beautiful roof line extends to the rear of the car, forming a natural duck tail design. Coupled with a straight door panel and a straight waistline, the new Pentium B70 has a slender and straight side shape. In addition, the lower edge of the window at the C-pillar of the car has obvious upward treatment, which is slightly similar to Cadillac CT5, not copied, but the sports atmosphere created for the new car is the same. As for the rim shape, the new Pentium B70 adopts 19 inch Y-shaped rim, and the detailed design makes the new car full of strength and atmosphere.

There are two bright spots in the rear part, one of which is the most eye-catching integrated taillight group. This design is the most popular design concept at present, which can effectively increase the recognition of new cars at night. In order to show its uniqueness, the taillight group of the new Pentium B70 echoes the headlight group in shape, and there is no choice in terms of design sense or effect. Another highlight is the hatchback tailgate, whose opening position spans the C-pillar, echoing the sharp window, which increases the practicality and creates a sharp effect. As for the body size, the body size of the new Pentium B70 is also considerable, with a length of over 4m 8 and a wheelbase of 2m 8, even larger than the recently popular Geely Xingrui. So, what's the performance of this new Pentium B70 in terms of interior driving space? We continue to look down.

According to the actual experience, the legroom of the new Pentium B70 is very spacious in both the front and rear rows, and the rear seats of the car are all equipped with three head pillows, which support full leveling. The hatchback tailgate design can provide excellent practicality. In terms of storage space, the performance of the new Pentium B70 has also reached an excellent level, and the number and depth of storage compartments are considerable, so there is nothing to be picky about. Of course, as a medium-sized car, the new Pentium B70 is not only space and practicality, but also friendly to drivers.

The design concept of the cockpit has also undergone a brand-new innovation. The center console is simple in shape and slightly tilted to the driver's side to create a better driving experience. The most eye-catching thing is the car's big screens. The full LCD instrument is connected to the central screen, and the air conditioning control area is also designed with touch screen, supplemented by knob air volume/temperature adjustment components, creating a strong scientific and technological atmosphere. In addition, it is worth mentioning that the top of the center console of the new Pentium B70 has added the same holographic projection equipment as that on the Pentium T77. Although it really has no practical use value, its playability is not bad.

Finally, in terms of power, the new generation Pentium B70 will be equipped with a brand-new 1.5T turbocharged engine, which can be said to be a star model. It is mounted on PRO, with maximum power 169 horsepower and peak torque of 258 Nm, meeting the national six emission standards and thermal efficiency of 39.06%. The transmission system is matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox. The suspension of the chassis is a bit unexpected, and two different suspensions, the rear multi-link and the rear torsion beam, will be provided according to the different vehicle configurations. Therefore, it can be expected that the future price coverage of this new car may be very wide, and the cost performance after listing at the end of the year is also worth looking forward to. So, what do you think the price of this new car will be? You may wish to express your views in the message area.
