SAIC-GM New Regal (2010)
In view of the two factors of price and interior space, family cars and sports cars have always been the relationship between well water and river water, but the new Regal has broken the strict boundary between them, realizing the cross-border between family and sports for the first time, highlighting the sports characteristics of cars without sacrificing interior space, and leading the new trend of making cars.
Originated from EPSILON II platform, the rear suspension lower arm made of aluminum alloy reduces the suspension quality and provides good response speed for control. The 245mm wide tires with 18-inch aluminum alloy wheels used in high-profile cars ensure the visual effect of vehicles and provide a good guarantee for grip. The turbocharged engine assisted by SIDI in-cylinder direct injection technology achieves an acceleration time of 0-100KM/H of 7.7 seconds and a maximum speed of 232KM/H with a maximum power of 162KW and a peak torque of 350 Nm. Based on the precise steering dynamic characteristics, Magnasteer magnetic assisted steering system is adopted, and on the basis of the traditional rack-and-pinion structure, the performance of variable steering damping with speed is realized.

SAIC-GM New LaCrosse (model 2010)
Generally speaking, every year, the model improvement of a classic car will adopt a vertical and gradual way, from the interior, lights, on-board electronic system to the extended version, transmission, engine specifications, etc., and one of them will be the main content every year. However, the emergence of the new LaCrosse has broken through the traditional evolution route of improved models, and the "leapfrog" transformation from appearance to core components is no less than shaping a brand new brand!
The appearance of the new LaCrosse can be described as thoroughly remoulded for the old LaCrosse. The body length of 5 meters and the wheelbase increased by 30mm make it more magnificent than the old LaCrosse. Thanks to the brand-new streamlined design and coordinated body proportion, it has a larger size and is visually more compact. The 3.0 V6 SIDI all-aluminum engine on the new LaCrosse 3.0 model is one of its highlights, with intelligent in-cylinder direct injection technology and DVVT variable timing valve technology. The maximum power is 190 kW/6800 rpm and the maximum torque is 296 Nm/5600 rpm, which is a revolutionary breakthrough for naturally aspirated engines that generally wander around 50 kW/L. The new LaCrosse also has many bright spots in the chassis: it is the only model in its class equipped with active suspension.
Best information technology car
SAIC Roewe 350
In-vehicle electronic control technology combined with 3G communication technology is the hottest topic in the current automobile industry. Information, communication and vehicle service-the cross-border integration of three application fields is becoming the key selling point of major automobile manufacturers. As the only vehicle in 2010 that mainly promoted vehicle electronics, Roewe 350 deserved to be the winner of this award, and as a self-owned brand car, its courage to keep up with the trend is worthy of respect.
After the general Onstar and Toyota GBook systems, the 3G intelligent network driving system-"inkanet" equipped by Roewe 350 not only includes routine functions such as real-time road navigation, car Bluetooth, multimedia playback, but also provides users with a lot of more humanized services such as built-in browser, InkaStore software store, fun games, Walkie Talkie global intercom, location cloud search/shorthand, life guide, weather forecast and after-sales service guide. And after some operation, you find that this pile of stuff is so easy to use and easy to use.
What is rare is that the Roewe 350′ s handling performance is equally good. Its lightweight steering system is very suitable for urban road conditions with low speed; The most critical power system, Roewe 350 is equipped with a 1.5L VCT engine, with VTi multi-angle continuous variable timing and Bi-Thermostat independent two-position stratified cooling technology, and its output strength is enough to make it easy and enjoyable to run on the road.
With these, drivers and passengers can sit in the car with peace of mind and enjoy the fun of life on wheels given by the electronic age.
Best environmentally-friendly car
Faw-Volkswagen magotan 1.4T
Electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles are the most dazzling stars in every auto show in recent years. However, under the background that new energy vehicles can’t be popularized in the market, we think this is the evaluation standard for automobile environmental protection practice. In this field, the public is clearly ahead of the world.
Volkswagen’s golden combination of TSI and DSG is recognized as the most efficient power system in the automotive industry. The new force in this family, the ——1.4T Magotan, has pushed Volkswagen to a new peak by striving for environmental protection without sacrificing the glory of performance.
Although the displacement is only 1.4L, the maximum torque of 1.4TSI engine is 220Nm at 1750-3500rpm, while most 2.4L naturally aspirated engines on the market need 3000rpm to obtain the same torque output, which means that the explosive power of 1.4TSI engine can reach the level of mainstream 2.4L engine in daily use.
The 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox matched with the engine uses a dry dual-clutch with higher transmission efficiency. The wide gear ratio provided by up to 7 gears enables the engine to achieve higher working efficiency under various working conditions, so as to make up for the driver’s lack of technology and effectively reduce fuel consumption.
Best new model of the year
FAW-Volkswagen CC
CC won this honor for two specific reasons: "concept+technology". From the low-end Jetta to the high-end Phaeton, Volkswagen brand cars have always been low-key, but the appearance of CC has completely subverted Volkswagen’s century-old brand image, like lightning, and is called "the most beautiful Volkswagen". As the first crossover model in China that combines a four-door sedan with a coupe, CC gives domestic consumers a new choice and a new awareness.
This "most beautiful Volkswagen" is equally proud in terms of technology. Volkswagen’s latest EA888 series 2.0TSI engine combines two key technologies of turbocharging and in-cylinder direct injection, with a maximum power of 147kw/5100-6000rpm, and maintains a low fuel consumption while obtaining excellent power; The performance of the golden partner 6-speed DSG wet powershift is unparalleled, which further magnifies the dynamic performance of CC, and the acceleration time of 0-100km/h is 7.48 seconds, ranking among the top three in the same class.
In addition, what makes CC get a lot of extra points is its high technology armed to teeth, including automatic parking, ACC adaptive cruise, lane keeping, auxiliary display of reversing, tire pressure monitoring and automatic parking, which is only one step away from unmanned driving. And at present, Volkswagen’s top car equipment is just so much. Is it more cost-effective to spend nearly 300,000 yuan to enjoy it?
