2020 is an important stage of Dongfeng Yueda Kia’s revival strategy. For this reason, it has brought a new generation of K5 (Kaiku) that is very popular overseas. It wants to use this as a sharp edge to charge into the car market. .
Kaiku is indeed very interesting. Its new design language, advanced configuration, fourth-generation engine using CVVD technology, etc. are all its highlights and selling points. In fact, in addition to the new generation K5, many car fans are also looking forward to Dongfeng Yueda Kia introducing Ba Rui. The mid-term facelift of this car was just launched in South Korea some time ago. The new car shows the unique style of Korean medium and large SUVs. The recent exposure of Ba Rui’s domestic patented design drawings does this mean that this car will hopefully enter the domestic market?
Based on its product performance, it is not difficult to see why consumers have such high expectations for this car.
First of all, in terms of appearance, the Ba Rui car lives up to its name. The whole vehicle exudes domineering and sharpness that is unique to medium and large SUVs. Specifically, it inherits the latest design language of the Kia family. The front face adopts the upgraded "Tiger Roar" forward grille. The middle grille has a mesh structure and has been blackened to render a strong dynamic atmosphere. . The headlights on both sides have unique shapes and are integrated with the grille, making the front face appear more stretched and open. It is worth mentioning that the headlight set contains 4 independent light sources, which not only provide excellent lighting effects, but also look very domineering.
Viewed from the side, the Ba Rui's body proportions are well-proportioned and the shape design is tough. The smooth and flexible waistline stretches from the headlights to the taillights, outlining a dynamic and refined body outline. The sharp wheel eyebrow lines, 20 The addition of blackened wheels and other elements further enhances the aura of the vehicle.
The rear of the Ba Rui maintains the square shape of the previous model. The taillight adopts the popular through-type design and is integrated with the model logo "Mohave", which plays the role of horizontally stretching the visual width. .
In the interior, Ba Rui creates a good luxurious atmosphere. It adopts a contrasting design of beige and black, which gives people a high-end feel in terms of tone. It is equipped with advanced features such as a four-spoke leather multi-function steering wheel, a 12.3-inch full LCD instrument panel, a 12.3-inch built-in large central control screen, and electric-adjustable seats with memory.
In terms of details, Ba Rui is extremely particular and meticulous. It uses Alcantara material in the steering wheel, center armrest, door armrests and door interior panels, which effectively improves the interior texture.
In terms of power, we currently only know that it is equipped with a 3.0T V6 diesel engine, and the transmission part is matched with an 8AT. The maximum power can reach 191kW, and the peak torque reaches 560N·m. In terms of peak torque, it Exceeding the Touron 2.5T model (500N·m).
Unfortunately, the official has not confirmed whether the Ba Rui model will be introduced. In fact, judging from Dongfeng Yueda Kia's existing product layout, it does lack a mid-to-large SUV. If Ba Rui is introduced, the competitiveness of its entire product matrix will be improved.
