Recently, a new car Model B appeared, which made many people think that Tesla has released a new car? Don't get me wrong, this time it's not Tesla. In terms of new car-making forces, it has always been a lively scene of "you finish singing and I'll take the stage". Not long ago, Foxconn Group's investment company Hon Hai Group announced a video of its new car Foxtron Model B on its official social platform. Hon Hai official said that Model B is a new hatchback model based on the Hon Hai electric vehicle open platform. It adopts a new generation of running and aerodynamic body design and is expected to be officially unveiled on the annual Technology Day held on October 18. The name is very "Tesla", but the positioning is very "Volkswagen ID.3". What new tricks are the new cars playing?
It is understood that the appearance of the new car was personally created by a Pennsylvania design master. Judging from the pictures, the most obvious feature of the front of the new car is its very flatness. The multi-layered design of the front face is more complicated than other electric car brands. The front face adopts the most popular through-type LED design nowadays, and the middle is lit by a brand LOGO partition. After lighting up, the brand has a strong sense of belonging. The split headlights are similar to the trapezoidal grille at the bottom, and the interior adopt a gradient star array design. It is expected that the new car may have a light language design and can be changed in different styles. The whole front face looks sporty. In addition, we can also see the concave and convex shape of the set-top cover, which adds a touch of power to the vehicle.
Although the front face of Model B is sharp and cool, it is actually a relatively compact hatchback hatchback . The side looks short and has a similar visual effect to Volkswagen ID.3. A waistline with a strong sense of muscle runs through the body. There is also a black trim between the two black wheel arches. A personalized decoration is adopted above the D-pillar, with a sharp style, and a small decoration with a star-like decoration on it. It also creates a floating roof effect, adding a fashionable atmosphere to the new car. The new car also uses a camera exterior rearview mirror, implying that this car is a concept car and is not the final mass-produced version. In terms of details, hidden door handles and low-resistance wheels are used, and ventilation holes are also installed on the fenders to guide the airflow. In addition, its four-wheel and four-corner layout gives this car a good handling performance. And the pininfarina logo, paired with the entire black body, it looks very eye-catching.
The rear of the car echoes the front face, and it is also a through-style style. The rear LED taillights also have a light language design, which can display specific patterns. If a pedestrian passes in front, an arrow and a small man will appear to remind the vehicle behind, which will enhance the technological sense of the entire vehicle.
The power of the new car has not been exposed yet, but there are reports that the new car is built on the MIH electric vehicle platform with a range of 500km and may be sold at the same time in China, Germany, the United States and other places in the future.
Although Foxconn is synonymous with "OEM" in the eyes of Volkswagen, Foxconn has never interrupted its dream of building cars. Foxconn founder Guo Taiming has mentioned many times: " Apple car is just four-wheeled iphone. Since we can build iPhone, why can't we build electric cars?" Now, its dream of building cars has finally come true.
In fact, Foxconn's ambition to build cars was not formed overnight. In 2010, as the door to the era of electrification opened, Foxconn, which was originally on the smartphone track, knocked on the door to cooperation with car companies with a piece of "glass". With orders with car companies such as Mercedes-Benz , BMW , etc., Foxconn has officially become a part of the vehicle manufacturing industry. The "ambition" hidden for many years will eventually become hope. In cooperation with many car companies, Foxconn has accumulated rich experience in car manufacturing.
Auto Online Review: Model B, as a hatchback, not only hit Volkswagen ID.3, but also hit Tesla. To a certain extent, it is suspected of "ripping on the popularity". But it also increased the popularity of Foxconn Model B.In short, the wealthy Foxconn's bold entry this time brought a strong sense of oppression. However, those who make mobile phones should also be cautious when building cars. Faced with new car-making forces, I wonder what kind of new student answers this "big boss" in the technology industry will deliver?
