Changfeng
Liebao CS9 SUV Concept
The new
Changfeng Liebao CS9 concept car has been unveiled on the Beijing Auto Show, sporting hip and sporty lines, a rather modest grille, and bright
orange paint. The concept car previews the Liebao CS9 production car which will
be launched on the Chinese car market in the fall.
Design won’t
change much anymore, even the racy alloys with red brakes will make it to
production. Price will start around 70.000 and end around 90.000 yuan. The
Liebao CS9 will be positioned below the Liebao CS10 SUV. Power will come from a Mitsubishi-sourced 1.5
liter petrol engine mated to a five-speed manual or a CVT. No specs on power
yet.
The
70.000-100.000 SUV segment is growing like crazy in China and Changfeng wants a
piece of the pie. The CS9 looks good enough and will most likely get a decent
engine, if the interior is nice it might very well become a stellar seller.
