It seems that the Chinese brought to Russia everything that the Europeans took away, and even a little more. Fastidious readers will answer that representatives of the Celestial Empire cannot provide new cars of recognizable and respected brands in commercial quantities. And there really is a grain of truth in that, but only a fraction. And in more detail – in the material of the portal “AvtoVzglyad”.
If you imagine a life without Kruzaks and X-fifths, sadness will surely take over the soul. Well, what about our beau monde without new models? But the trickle of the desired European chic is getting smaller every day, the “democrats” tighten the screws, they do not give a taste of modern technologies. Anyone and everyone may not be enough. But most importantly, respect on the road is also declining.
Who will give in to the “Dvuhsotka” and “Mercedes” of previous generations today? Who respects the owner of a “heavy suite”, hidden under a thick layer of paint, when his car is already old? That is it. For such purposes you need a car of the new generation, and not some cast-off.
But there is no need to be sad. After all, the ubiquitous Chinese have already realized that German bodies do not change from year to year as much as various decorative body kits such as headlights and grilles. By applying a large amount of plastic, the car can be given the desired appearance. The “Great Japanese” is easy to update, almost to its current appearance, but I will not even mention the Gelendwagen. It is already a classic.
Without hesitation, Chinese manufacturers presented at MIMS-2023 a complete set of the necessary “plumage” that can create the effect of a car’s rebirth. “Whales” can be ordered for many models, and the result promises to be amazing: “Gelik” turns into a new “Gelik”. And the level of detail is impressive: bumpers, grilles, optics, hoods and trunk lids. But this is not cheap: a kit for a BMW X5, for example, costs almost a million rubles.
In addition, this time the wizards from the Middle Kingdom went even further into the world of the “visual lies” and also showed off interior details that make it just as easy to upgrade the car to the current generations inside. And this is something new: from now on, connoisseurs of gloss will be able to create a profound effect on their audience. As they say, for every taste, color and wallet – just buy it!
The state of updates and retooling offered in the form of turnkey solutions – read, a very fast rework option – is also curious from the perspective of the impending transition of a domestic official to the domestic auto industry. Surely the Chinese won’t help by adapting the usual luxuries for LADA Aura? So far there is no evidence of improvements to the cars of Togliatti, Ulyanovsk or Nizhny Novgorod, but there is no reason to doubt the variability of the proposal at this point. Will satisfy even the most demanding customers.
