On March 11th, we obtained more official images of the all-new Roewe i6, a compact sedan under SAIC Roewe, from the official source. A series of high-definition official images fully show the new look of this facelifted model, making consumers full of expectations for its launch. It is reported that the car has successfully completed the declaration with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology earlier, and all compliance tests have met the standards. It is officially confirmed that it will be launched in April. At that time, it will further enrich SAIC Roewe's product matrix in the compact family sedan market, providing a new choice for consumers pursuing practicality and quality. As a fully facelifted model, the all-new Roewe i6 has completely adopted Roewe's latest family-style design language, getting rid of the calm style of the old model, which is more in line with the aesthetic needs of young consumers nowadays. In terms of power, it focuses on high efficiency and energy saving, equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine matched with a CVT gearbox, balancing family commuting and fuel economy.
In terms of appearance, the all-new Roewe i6 adopts Roewe's latest family-style design, with a front face that has a strong visual impact. The large-size front grille occupies most of the front face, with vertical waterfall chrome trim inside, which has neat lines and a sense of hierarchy. Matching the brand LOGO above the grille, it further enhances the recognition and delicacy of the vehicle. On both sides of the grille are connected with star-ring through-type light groups, which present a coherent light and shadow effect when lit, not only enhancing the safety of driving at night, but also making the front face of the whole vehicle more grand and fashionable. The exaggerated air intake below adopts a three-section design, with sharp lines on both sides and black trim in the middle, which effectively stretches the horizontal visual width of the front face, and at the same time adds a sense of movement to the vehicle, making this family sedan more dynamic and energetic.
In terms of dimensions, the body size of the new car has been carefully optimized, with a length, width and height of 4767/1828/1498mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2755mm. Compared with the old model, the wheelbase remains unchanged, and the body length and width have been slightly improved, providing sufficient guarantee for the interior space. It ranks among the mainstream level of compact family sedans, and even comparable to some A+ class models. From the side of the body, it adopts a relatively rich waistline design, among which a sharp waistline runs directly from the front light group to the rear light group, outlining a smooth body posture. Matching the slightly sinking roof line, it creates a溜背 (fastback) visual effect, balancing beauty and practicality. At the same time, the vehicle is equipped with dense-spoke wheels, which have an exquisite shape and are decorated with silver trim, further improving the delicacy and sense of premium of the side of the body, making the whole vehicle look more grand and durable.
In terms of the rear, the all-new Roewe i6 continues the fashionable design of the front face, adopting a through-type rear light group, which echoes the through-type light group of the front face, creating a unified front and rear visual effect. The light is highly recognizable when lit, and it is very distinctive when driving at night. Below the rear lights is decorated with black trim, which echoes the design of the front air intake, enhancing the overall design integrity of the whole vehicle. The slightly upturned ducktail design is the finishing touch, which not only optimizes the aerodynamic performance of the vehicle, but also appropriately increases the sense of movement of the car, making this family sedan get rid of dullness and become more vivid.
Although the official did not release its interior official images this time, it is not difficult to see from the information disclosed by the official that the interior of the all-new Roewe i6 will focus on a sense of technology and comfort. The car will be equipped with a 15.6-inch extra-large central control screen, which has clear display and smooth operation. Matching the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip, this chip has fast computing speed and strong stability, which can provide strong computing support for the vehicle machine system. It is expected to bring a smooth and smooth user experience. Whether it is navigation, entertainment or vehicle control, it can achieve rapid response. In addition, combined with the consistent configuration of Roewe family models, it is expected that the new car will also be equipped with full LCD instrument panel, multi-function steering wheel, automatic air conditioning and other comfort configurations, further improving the driving and riding experience.
In terms of power, the all-new Roewe i6 will be equipped with a 1.5L all-aluminum engine independently developed by SAIC. This engine adopts advanced technologies such as high-pressure injection fuel system and variable valve timing. While ensuring power output, it effectively improves fuel economy. The use of all-aluminum material realizes the lightweight of the engine, further reducing the fuel consumption of the whole vehicle. The maximum power of the engine is 95 kW, and the peak torque is 158 N·m. The power output is smooth, which can meet all the needs of daily family commuting. In terms of transmission, it is matched with a CVT gearbox, which has smooth shifting and rapid response, without obvious frustration, and further optimizes fuel economy. According to the official disclosure, the comprehensive fuel consumption of the car is as low as 5.95L/100km, which performs prominently among models of the same level and can effectively reduce the later use cost of consumers. Referring to the pricing of previous models and the situation of competitors of the same level, the expected price range of the all-new Roewe i6 is about 89,800-143,800 yuan, focusing on the cost-effective family market. After its launch in the future, it will compete with models such as Geely Emgrand and Volkswagen Lavida New. The 1.5L all-aluminum engine independently developed by SAIC adopts advanced technologies such as high-pressure injection fuel system and variable valve timing, which not only improves fuel efficiency, but also makes power output stronger and smoother, with excellent reliability and durability.
