As the main sales model of Geely's "China Star" series, Xingyue L has achieved very good sales results since its launch with its superior body size, Volvo's same power as well as its relatively affordable price. The official subsequently launched the Xingyue L Thor hybrid version to further enrich consumers' choices. However, since the Xingyue L Thor hybrid version adopts the HEV power form and cannot enjoy the green card policy, it also limits its sales to a certain extent.
A few days ago, we saw the application information of Xingyue L plug-in hybrid version from the latest batch of new car catalogs of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. After the new car is launched in the future, it can further improve Xingyue L's product camp in the new energy field. For reference, the price range of Xingyue L fuel version is 137,200-185,200 yuan, and the price range of the oil-electric hybrid version is 171,700-183,700 yuan. We guess that the price of the plug-in hybrid version may be higher.
Judging from the obtained declaration picture, the appearance of Xingyue L plug-in hybrid version is basically the same as that of the oil-electric hybrid version. The inside of the shield-shaped air intake grille on the front face is filled with a scaly texture. There are also vertical segmented light strips on both sides, paired with a luminous Geely LOGO, which can bring a very eye-catching visual effect after lighting up. The difference is that the vent decoration surrounding the lower is closed and forms a shape similar to a "key".
The new car adopts a lilac paint and should become the exclusive color matching for plug-in hybrid models in the future. The side window glass is available in black and chrome-plated bezels, and high-end models should also be equipped with privacy glass, while the five-spoke petal-style wheels below are retained. The tail of the plug-in hybrid version of
Xingyue L plug-in hybrid version also did not change much. It continued to occupy the entire center of visual gravity through the through-type light strip, and was decorated with chrome trim. A small green nameplate is added below the "Gely Auto" logo, and a "Hi·P" logo is added below the "Xingyue L" logo on the right to highlight the identity of the plug-in hybrid model.
Although there is no information on the interior of the new car, it is likely to be consistent with the oil-electric hybrid version. It consists of a 12.3 full LCD instrument + 12.3-inch central control screen + 12.3-inch co-driver entertainment screen to form a 1-meter-long through-type large screen. It integrates rich technology interconnection functions inside, creating a strong technological atmosphere while also ensuring simplicity.
power part, the Xingyue L plug-in hybrid version is equipped with a plug-in hybrid system composed of a 1.5TD three-cylinder engine code-named DHE15-ESZ. It is the same as the oil-electric hybrid version, with a maximum power of 110 kilowatts (150 horsepower), and is matched with a lithium-ion battery pack from Honeycomb Energy or CATL. It is not clear about the range.
From the body size of Xingyue L plug-in hybrid version, its main competitor after its future launch is Song PLUS DM-i (152,800-216,800 yuan). Considering that the price of the new car may be higher than the oil-electric hybrid version, it will also produce a certain price overlap with Changan UNI-K iDD (182,900-198,900 yuan) and Weipai Latte DHT-PHEV (229,000-263,000 yuan). If it were you, how would you choose between these cars? (Text/Shu Xin)
