These are the first pictures of the new FAW Junpai
T086, a stylish compact SUV that will be launched on the Chinese car market in
Q3. Junpai is s brand under First Auto Works (FAW) aimed at young car buyers in
second and third tier cities. Junpai-branded cars are manufactured by
Tianjin-FAW, a FAW subsidiary based in Tianjin.
The English name for the Junpai brand is Jumpal,
with an l at the end instead of an i. It has been designed by FAW’s Italian design studio and that
shows. It is by far the best looking Junpai car.
It looks clean, modern, sporty, and even a little
hip. It is not very daring, but buyers in the targeted segment are conservative
when it comes to design, so FAW is probably right not to go too far. T086 is
the internal name of the vehicle. The real name will be unveiled with the car.
That will happen sometime after Chinese new year, likely in early March.
Power comes from a new 1.2 turbocharged
four-cylinder petrol engine with 143 hp and 204 Nm, mated to a six-speed manual
or a seven-speed DCT, sending horses to the front wheels.
