Real shots of the first model of the new 212 brand

The new 212 brand was officially released on June 6, Beijing time. , Beijing Automobile Manufacturing Plant has brought a brand new 212 model. The new car has been comprehensively upgraded in terms of appearance, interior, engine and other aspects. The appearance retains the square shape and utilizes a large number of curve transitions. According to the exposed spy photos of the interior, the new car will be equipped with a full LCD instrument panel and a three-spoke multi-function steering wheel. Intelligent, assisted driving, seat materials. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4705x1895x1936/2070 (mm) respectively, and the wheelbase is 2860mm, which is a bit larger than the old model. At a previous closed-door communication meeting in Qingdao, the editor was fortunate enough to see the actual car, but unfortunately the official has not opened interior photography for the time being. Let’s take a look together!

In terms of appearance, the new car continues the classic "one arch, two circles, three horizontal and four vertical" family front faces. One arch is the overall shape of the hood, the two circles are the shape of the lights on both sides, and the three horizontal ones are the air intake. The grille shape, with four longitudinal hood rib shapes, is highly recognizable. Coming to the front of the car, the editor felt at first glance that the new model has become much stronger after adding a lot of curve design. The old model is simply weak in comparison. Different from the 23 models, the old-fashioned halogen light source has become LED light source, the new car's turn signal has changed from the old yellow light shell to a transparent color, and the appearance is much better than before. The classic "212" logo has been retained, but the "C" on the front grille "Moved to the front cover. In addition, the brightness of the retained "anti-aircraft light" can even approach high beam, and it also supports four electric adjustments (up, down, left, right), but the editor is really curious, will this thing hit the bulging cover?

On the side of the car body, the detachable two-section door panel has been changed to a one-piece door panel with less wind resistance, and the shape of the windows has also changed from the original sharp corners to a rounded design, but the new car still retains the extremely difficult sheet metal The body waistline, the editor is wondering whether this is a show of his assembly skills? The prominent wheel arch design further enhances the off-road atmosphere of the new car. In addition, as an off-road vehicle, the new car has a ground clearance of 750mm in the front and 1095mm in the rear. Thanks to the four-wheel and four-corner design of the vehicle, the vehicle has an approach angle of 40 degrees and a departure angle of 36 degrees, making it very passable.

Finally, when we got to the rear, the first thing that struck me was the change in the shape of the trunk. The new car’s trunk door opening method has been changed to a side-opening style, which solved the flaw in the original internal loading capacity. Secondly, the new car still retains the iconic external spare tire. Today's hard-core off-road vehicles like to hang the full-size spare tire on the outside. The 212 does not even have a spare tire cover. Maybe it is the most primitive and wild beauty that I like. . What finally attracted me was the three holes reserved by the original factory. One can install a flag and a radio, and one can be customized. The original factory wiring saves a lot of trouble compared to later modifications. It can be said that it is a modification. Road, leaving modification with no way to go.

In terms of power, the new car is equipped with a 2.0T engine with a maximum power of 185 kW, four-wheel drive, and is matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission. As a hardcore off-road vehicle, the vehicle retains the most basic design of a non-load-bearing body, two differential locks and front and rear hard axles, and provides two-wheel drive mode, low-speed four-wheel drive, and high-speed four-wheel drive.
