Spy Shots showing the upcoming Roewe RX7 SUV testing
in China. The RX7 is a new large SUV that will be positioned above the recently
launched RX5 SUV. It will hit the Chinese car market in 2018 for about 160.000
yuan or US$ 24.000.
The Roewe RX7 is the production version of the
Vision E-Concept that debuted earlier this year in Shanghai. The concept was an
electric, the real thing will be available with a petrol engine and with an
electric drive train. The petrol engine is a 260 hp 2.0 turbo sourced ill be
sourced from General Motors. The electric will have at least 200 hp and a range
of about 400 kilometers.
The Roewe RX7 will be the new flagship of the Roewe
brand, moving it further upmarket, competing directly with offerings from
Hyundai, Volkswagen, and Toyota. The interior will be fitted with a huge touch
screen, with the operating system for the infotainment once again sourced from
Alibaba.
It will have the largest lights I have seen on a new
car for a while. Is Roewe trying to break the smaller-lights trend? The lights
on the test car are even bigger than the ones on.
