Hongqi has revealed the pricing of its updated HS5 lineup in China: depending on your chosen trim level, the marque’s best-selling SUV will set you back 183,800–249,800 CNY. Per AutoHome, the model received a facelift and a drivetrain upgrade, gaining more power and switching from dual-clutch to A/T.
On the outside, the HS5 now looks in line
with the brand’s flagships with its cascading radiator grille and two-tier
headlights sporting slim LED bars next to the hood rim. The dashboard retains
its two large displays, but gets a new HVAC control panel. The transmission
tunnel also looks different.
The engine is the old 2.0-liter turbo
boosted by an additional 27 horsepower and 40 Newton-meters of torque. This
means it produces 252 PS and 380 Nm of torque in
the new version. The old six-speed dual-clutch transmission also makes way for
an eight-speed automatic.
