That’s awesome! Where is the "respect" of the million-dollar luxury flagship against Maibakh?

That’s awesome! Where is the "respect" of the million-dollar luxury flagship against Maibakh?

In this issue, we will officially bring you the first model of "MAEXTRO Zunjie" brand that Huawei cooperates with Jianghuai. Jianghuai, as the fourth brand under Huawei’s smart car selection cooperation model, is also the last "boundary" in the "four boundaries" we often talk about. Let’s see what big tricks they are holding back. I believe that some friends have also read the notices we sent before and all kinds of news circulating on the Internet. This time, we still use the imaginary map to reveal the new car for everyone in advance. However, before, many friends commented that they didn’t understand the new car at all, and even didn’t read the spy photos. This time, we will introduce this new car to you from the overall shape, details and brand Logo of the vehicle in combination with the spy photos and all kinds of known information. Let’s take a look and see where the respect is.

First of all, I have to admire it. The brand’s secrecy work is really good. There are many spy photos about new cars on the Internet, but they are basically disguised, which belongs to such a situation that the meat is buried in the rice. But the problem is not big, still can find some clues. Let’s first introduce the basic situation of this new car to you according to the existing information. Let’s talk about the positioning of vehicles first. JAC has built two new pure electric energy platforms, "DE" and "X6". DE platform is mainly to meet the needs of domestic economic and improved market, and its products cover medium-sized cars, medium-sized and large-sized cars, compact SUVs and medium-sized SUVs.

The X6 platform covers B-class to D+ class, including cars, SUVs, MPVs, crossover vehicles and sports vehicles. The platform will be empowered by Huawei’s intelligent technology and actively seize the domestic high-end market. X6 platform is also the platform adopted by the first model of Zunjie. When it comes to the high-end market, to what extent is the specific high-end market? First, it is the million-level price. Secondly, it aims at the flagship model of BBA, Mercedes-Benz S-Class/Maibakh S-Class, BMW 7 Series, Audi A8 Horch Founder Edition and so on. To sum up briefly, China brand’s million-class new energy vehicle is a luxury business car.

Since we are cooperating with Huawei, what are the surprises in terms of intelligence and assisted driving? Previously, General Manager Yu of Yu Chengdong also said that Huawei will launch ADS 4.0 intelligent driving system in 2025 to realize L3-level assisted driving at commercial high speed and pilot L3-level assisted driving in urban areas. We predict that new cars in Zunjie will be equipped with this system. However, it is still unknown what other black technologies are available for the new car.

After everyone knows the basic situation of the vehicle, let’s take a look at the appearance of the new car. Although the front face of the vehicle is now covered with camouflage in spy photos, it can feel the overall gas field and dignified style. From the spy photos, it can be felt that the prominent modeling characteristics of the front face of the vehicle are very obvious, and the lights on both sides are vertically arranged. The shape of the lower enclosure of the vehicle is also relatively geometric, without too many shape changes, and the diamond grille shape is in the middle. Earlier, it was reported that the new car would adopt an extended-range power system, which would explain why the vehicle was surrounded by a grille shape.

In the headlight group, we found that the shapes in different spy photos are different. The first one is a large rectangular light group from top to bottom, and the other one is smaller in size and has a chamfered shape, similar to a trapezoid. Is it possible that the new car has two front faces? One prefers sports style and the other takes the luxury business route? This possibility is not ruled out, but we have also tried two shapes, and think that the large-size rectangular light group is more in line with vehicle positioning and makes the front face more full of gas. Compared with more complicated sculpting, bold and direct modeling can bring more impactful visual effects and stronger recognition. We can see this in BBA’s flagship models, including Rolls-Royce, Bentley and other modeling languages.

Next, let’s take a look at what the front face of the imaginary vehicle looks like based on the analysis of spy photos. First of all, it is the iconic protruding shape, and it has a certain distance from the parting line of the hood, which makes the visual impact of the front of the car stronger. Below the protrusion, we made an inward turning shape, and further down, the plane shape showed a certain outward expansion trend. At the bottom is the diamond grille we mentioned before, and the overall outline is trapezoidal.

Speaking of this, you may have some doubts. In spy photos, it seems that the front face should be a whole prominent square closed shape. How did you do an adduction? Well, we also refer to the concept car shape released by JAC before, and the shape inspiration of the front face is also taken from it. I don’t know if you understand, but in fact, many times, car companies will use some "eye-catching methods" in the vehicle camouflage stage, such as raising the height, padding a part of the shape and so on. Including we also saw that there was an imaginary picture about the realm on the Internet before, that is, the whole square shape was adopted. What do we think? Since it’s an imaginary map, let’s do something different and provide a new reference direction for everyone.

Let’s continue to talk about the headlights and other details. On both sides, there are large rectangular light groups to support the upper and lower parts of the front of the car. The internal light source of the headlight adopts grouped geometric modeling, and we also learn from the Xinghe headlight of the enjoyment world S9, and adopt the bright star diamond technology, just like the Xinghe. Connecting the lamp groups on both sides is a penetrating daytime running lamp that fits the shape of the front of the car. This combination outlines a square and dignified front face shape.

At the same time, this time we also added a more interesting design. We adopted a vertical Logo above the front of the car. The overall shape is a bit like a small shield, but the interior is made of three-dimensional diamond cutting shape to enhance the overall exquisiteness. Of course, this Logo is not imaginary, but found in the Trademark Office of China National Intellectual Property Administration. We can see that the applicant’s name is Anhui Jianghuai Automobile and the application date is March 2024. Therefore, I personally think that as a million-level luxury model, whether it is brand recognition or vehicle positioning, there is nothing wrong with putting a standard. There are many such examples in luxury models, and even become the iconic element of the brand. You can try it.

Let’s look at the side of the car body. Since it is a D-class model, first of all, the size of the car body must be large enough. In the imaginary picture, the length of the whole car is about 5.4 meters and the wheelbase is about 3.4 meters. Through spy photos, you can feel that the waistline on the side of the whole car is relatively straight, and there may not be too many styling changes. The visual center of gravity of the whole car side is biased towards the rear of the car. Combined with the slipping trend of the roof line, it feels a little "trailing" and is very heavy in visual experience. In addition, at the rear door position, it is currently covered by camouflage. Considering the modeling trend of the rear door edge, it is expected that the new car may not provide triangular windows.

In detail, we can see that there are two kinds of rim styles in spy photos: dense spokes and pie shape. In the imaginary map, we choose the "pie" shaped rim that is often used in luxury models, and the details are basically referred to spy photos. In addition, it can be seen from some spy photos that the new car will be equipped with technologies such as rear wheel steering.

In the imaginary picture, we basically continue the vehicle shape in the spy photos, and the simple and straight waistline is combined with the small slip-back roof line to create the overall heavy rear shape. The plane Logo of "MAEXTRO Zunjie" is added to the triangle window of the rear door, and the shape is the flat style of the Logo, with the English letters of MAEXTRO added in the middle. Similarly, this Logo was also applied by Anhui Jianghuai Automobile in July 2024, and we also saw the Logo on the official account of Zunjie. More chrome-plated decorations are added at the door and the side skirt under the door to further highlight the luxury positioning of the whole vehicle.

In the rear part, let’s look at the spy photos first. The overall shape belongs to the feeling of being full and round in the middle. Except for the details of the taillights on both sides and the license plate frame area below, other places are basically covered by camouflage materials. At the rear of the car, we still continue the simple atmospheric shape of the front of the car and try to reduce the stacking of complex shapes. In the taillight part, we predict that the high probability should be the penetrating taillight, which is also a popular design at present.

Xiangjie S9

For the details of the taillights, we thought about whether we should refer to Enjoy S9. Although the taillights are somewhat similar, we finally decided to change the shape. After all, the positioning of the two cars is different, and as the first model of a brand new brand, recognition is also very important. The lower edge of the taillight is shaped as a complete arc running through the left and right, and the upper shape is approximately "bow", so the overall design is relatively simple. The internal light source of the taillight adopts a thin horizontal bar shape, the upper part is a brake light, and the lower part is a turn signal. At the bottom of the taillights, the Milky Way headlights also use headlights, which use the bright star diamond technology and are like the Milky Way. At the same time, in the middle of the taillights, we also put in a chrome-plated decorative board to further enhance the sense of exquisiteness.

The first model of Zunjie has basically been introduced to you here. After all, there is still too little information for the first model of such a brand-new brand. While fully respecting the spy photos, we should try our best to exert our imagination and present the shape behind the disguise. Of course, the current imaginary map will definitely be different from the real car in some places, and it is impossible to be completely consistent, which also makes us look forward to the appearance of the new car. A few days ago, we saw that Zunjie had boarded the scooter and was ready to send it to Guangzhou, just waiting for the official announcement at the auto show. After the launch of the new car on November 15th, we will also bring you more reports about the new car, so stay tuned.
