There are new SUVs being launched on the Chinese car
market every single day and the end is nowhere in sight. Here we have another
new seven-seat SUV dubbed the Beijing Auto Huansu S7, featuring a big black
Lexus-like grille. It will be launched in Q4 for about 80.000 yuan.
The S7 is the seven-seat variant of the five-seat
Huansu H5 that launched in March. It will be
powered by a 1.5 turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine with 150 hp mated
to a five-speed manual ‘box, sending power to the front wheels. Dimension size is 4800/1850/1770 mm, and wheelbase is 2780 mm.
Huansu (means Magic Speed) is a brand under the Beijing Auto Industries
Corporation (BAIC). The cars are manufactured by a
company called Beiqi Yinxiang Automobile, a joint venture between the
BAIC and the Yinxiang Motorcycle Group.
The Huansu brand is aimed at buyers in second and
third tier cities, so we won’t see much of them in the first trier mega cities
like Beijing and Shanghai.
