SGMW has unveiled the Baojun RS-7
three-row SUV at the 2020 Chonqing Auto Show. The RS-7 is the new flagship
model of Baojun. As denoted by the Diamond logo and the R-series name, the RS-7
is Baojun’s upper-end series model with a premium design and more advanced
features. It may look like an enlarged MG Hector because of the familiar
profile but that’s not the case.
The Baojun RS-7 measures 4,930 mm in
length, 1,975 mm in width and 1,765-1,780 mm in height (depending on the
configuration). It has quite a bold design at the front with the large diamond
logo, a large hexagonal grille with striking double slats and LED headlights.
At the rear, it features clear-lens combination lamps for sporty styling.
The interior of the Baojun RS-7 is way
more appealing than its exterior. Designed like that of a luxury vehicle, it
comprises a sleek dashboard, compact steering wheel with a flat bottom, virtual
instrument cluster and infotainment system displays seamlessly merged into a
single panel, slim AC vents and climate control panel and a short electronic
gearshift lever. The RS-7’s minimalist interior design sets a new bar for
Baojun models. SGMW will sell this model in 6-seat and 7-seat versions.
Under the hood, the Baojun RS-7 has a
1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine that produces a maximum
power of 177 PS. SGMW will likely launch the Baojun RS-7 in China
towards the end of this year.
