Beijing Auto Weiwang S50 SUV
This is the new Beijing Auto Weiwang S50 SUV
for China. It will debut on the Beijing Auto Show next month and launch on the Chinese
car market soon thereafter.
Weiwang is a brand
under Beiqi Yinxiang Automobile, a joint venture between Beijing
Auto (Beiqi) and the Yinxiang Motorcycle Group from Chongqing. The Weiwang S50
is based on the Beijing Auto Senova
X65, just like the Beijing Auto Huansu S6 and the Borgward BX7.
Price wise the S50 will be positioned
just below the X65, with price expected to start around 95.000 yuan. The Huansu
S6 is about the same price as the X65, and the Borgward BX7 will be more
expensive, but that one has a luxurious interior and will get a bespoke 2.0
turbocharged engine.
The S50 will have to do with the same
1.5 turbo as the Huansu S6, good for 150 Hp and 200 Nm, mated to a six-speed
manual or a six-speed automatic, sending power to the front wheels.
