as the last major auto show of the year 2019, the seventeenth session of the Guangzhou Auto Show November 22 official opening. To be honest, this show Launch time compared to previous years to advance a lot. The reason, perhaps only the holidays this year ahead of a statement which seems more nearly human. In previous years, the Guangzhou Motor Show will be opened in December fundamental.
Coming back to this show. In fact, the Guangzhou auto show exhibition hall layout, whether or importance, in terms of bright young individuals are relatively OK, and it will not let us, like Beijing, Shanghai Auto Show that struggling back and forth, you will not be as overwhelmed as Chengdu Motor Show, but a more humane children’s show. Reasonable manner, calmly, as if the show on the way.
as media colleagues, new year approaches, always happened to run into a few pleasantries, the idea of paying a down year and harvest, and then chat outlook for the Guangzhou auto show, which first came to the show to talk about the mission. All in all, the Guangzhou auto show, no one dejected, disappointed no one, no people are also full of gas child.
The reason why we do not mind children full of gas, because this time the Guangzhou auto show came too suddenly, as if everyone still they are not ready. Each saw a fellow feeling when everyone’s head more or less be able to see one or two question marks. Haha, I may as well.
Closer to home, this article mainly would like to chat on the Guangzhou auto show Geely booth on the exhibition hall 1.1, caused widespread concern in that section of the auspicious icon Galactic limited edition concept car.
from participating brands Hall 1.1 of view, Geely booth barely any adversary, attention properly the first. This timeGeely brought their 90 percentage reduction concept car design icon limited edition production car, can indeed enough to attract our attention. icon car Where do we start? I think we can start with the Volvo 40 series of concept cars.
As early as in 2017 or even earlier time, Volvo on exposure at the time, they call it “40 Series” concept vehicles. We can follow this picture, we compare the current icon, believe we can find a lot in common.

by three pictures, I believe we can fully understand, the car icon in the overall context of the evolution. It is worth mentioning that, now we see the production version, the degree of reduction concept car design up to 90 percentage, which is also the ability to almost all models of other brands do not have. When the icon into the car in front of us, we will not only themselves, but also have a sense of pride.
Chinese automakers, from that moment, really started to do, I have no people, who have my spirit , fine people I Ao. Geely contrast to 10 years ago, and now Geely Automobile, is indeed a new look, a thriving. In the video experience to the car, I also mentioned that if every car brand has a logo, then lucky I am willing to grant it a “new” word.
In recent years, the rapid development of China’s auto brands. Changan, Geely, Great Wall, SAIC passenger cars and other brands gradually rise, began to enter the mainFlow automotive market. Geely is particularly rapid rate of development can be said to be the most obvious upward trend of business. According to my observation, compared to any other brand, Geely overall development speed is too fast. Whether publishing a new car speed, quantity, or the design concept of innovation, progress, and also, or brand attitude, brand concept of continuous distillation, Geely Automobile will always bring us more “new” feeling. So, I think the “new” perhaps this stage, Geely “brand totem.”
From the front view, no doubt, Geely icon again uses the latest design concepts, trendy bold design ideas, do not lose any foreign company. Moreover, the design of a very high degree of originality, while using new design concept in a large area, also on the bottom of the mouth, retaining a paper design elements Geely has been advertised. On the basis of bold innovation, inherit and carry forward the brand heritage, the icon of the body, I see it.
split the headlights I saw the new ideas in automotive design. Geely group headlight design of this model, daytime running lights will remain in the top, the distance light lamps were integrated within the vertical-shaped lights set style. While the overall design concept is not auspicious icon original, but this seamless, complementary fluency, but quite rare, not something that can be designed well.
In fact, the overall design of the headlights group, and the entire lower half of the front design are inseparable. After all, the first is the outline design, followed by every specific implementation details. In my opinion, the front lower half of the overall design concept is basically to restore the auspicious design ideas fret, and layering is very rich, big inside a paper containing at least two layers fret, progressive layers, highlighting the heavy feeling. The position of the headlights group, it just highlights its profound and sophisticated “eyes” in order to draw dragons, it certainly eye-dotting.
as a Chinese brand, inState elements can definitely be written about a major feature. BYD, Geely is one of the players. Whether BYD Dragon Face, Geely already mature or fret design, ripples of water droplets, Chinese elements are cleverly integrated into one, highlighting its own characteristics.
Although the shape of the side of the layering and no front foot, but still worth noting. Extremely rare dual-stage front and rear doors through the waist not most, but from the front and rear lights set style, and enough is enough, looks more like first grade will learn radical “Ya.” It seems to give us a “twists and turns” feeling.
In fact, in the side, we can more clearly see the multi-colored body color icon band for It increased the number of vehicle movement. SUV suspension stage is commonly roof design ideas, the icon can not escape. In effect, the effect icon floating roof does reach the object, reflecting the dice.
The shape of the tail of the vehicle body and the front shape echoes, especially in the lower half of the front and almost exactly the same design, only but it was not integrated in the rear light clusters here, but remain in the upper half.
taillight design ideas set relatively quite conventional, the lamp with the same design concept cited fret which individually designed interior lights with two thin peripheral band of light through a blackened treatment. I believe the effect of the lighting can certainly be more outstanding. Lamps below using vertical-like shape, but reversing lights, turn signals position is arranged horizontally, the benefits of this design is that the car can make enough to see, but also reflects the design of the front and echoes.
the lower half of the inner group of lamps, is the same as the front and back pattern design. Due to the presence in the license-tail position, so forming a “flat C” shape. Junior feel like the same physical contact to magnet, Same-sex repulsion, opposites attract.
surrounded the bottom of the
under the shield design it is greatly puzzled, which is a separate special shape? Or exhaust modeling? If the shape of the exhaust is so, why design three instead of two? In fact, this is a simple decoration, as to why three? Liang Tsai can not answer for everyone. After all, there are two portions of the front lower lip, lower side have a back door. Why in the end design? Is black anti-rub-rub too lonely? White needs to accompany? Probably so right!
to understand the appearance of finished, let us look at how the performance of the car! To be honest, icon interior as if I’ve seen this in other models, what model it? Geely geometry A! The first is reflected in this very simple “green” interior color, as well as the overall design ideas, looks and geometric A have the same place. Under minimalist design ideas, icon of the car without a trace of excess lines, but looks upscale, fashion a lot.
concept of minimalist design interior design ideas in recent years, the sudden emergence of a sudden. This reflects consumers nowadays a lot of inner monologue: let life return to simple, interpersonal communication, simple, people and cars to communicate, also need simple.
simply does not mean no, all of 2019, the automotive interior design, no LCD instrumentation, central control is probably too big screen is also somewhat justified. Overall, icon interior style geometric A taste quite a bit, especially the way the whole color LCD screen and frameless design. Thus, although behind the steering wheel always felt somewhat bare adapt, but also better reflect the icon or simple design ideas Geely want to express.
Unfortunately, this time the icon show car is not charged, you can not bring details in the control screen for everyone experience. From the current point of view, it should be equipped with internal and Ji Libo more Pro, the same star vehicle computer systems, networking and support OTA upgrade.
If you have carefully observed the icon of the center console, you will certainly notice the front of the co-pilot has a specially designed handrails. This design, while not common, but also more common in a number of off-road vehicles, but through the use of lines, which is incorporated into the urban SUV, I actually did not feel awkward. Queen when you need to get off or adjust the seat position, there can grab the handrail look, if only to imagine that there is a sense of the screen.
Design of the shift position of the operating area are also satisfactory, similar Dangba Volvo crystal, black beige phase see the level design, mobile wireless charging function and so were 11 arranged here in harmony.
we shot models, full-color beige seats, even more business, home number. In addition, icon will also provide a two-color mixed colors such as seat design. Under Comparing the two, I personally prefer the former, the same color design so I better find a sense of belonging and a sense of the icon of the car. I think this car icon, the interior should be spotless, not too much emphasis on sports. Turnip greens, and have love, we can fully discuss.
Dynamic aspects, an icon will listed 1.5T mounted three-cylinder engine, the maximum power of 177 horsepower, The maximum torque of 255 cattle middot; m, 7-speed double clutch gearbox matching. Based on this table the powertrain, 48V icon is also equipped with a motor to constitute a light mixing system, at low torque state, the engine to compensate for the problem of turbo lag.
Summary:
auspicious change in recent years for all to see, really fast development. Since the acquisition of Volvo, Geely Automobile after several years of hibernation, simplify product lines, optimizing system vendors to develop a new platform, until now has two major domestic car and SUV segment, the firm footing, and has beenBy gradually force, the brand began to rise.
a few years, consumers lucky with the rate of visible, crazy absorbing advanced manufacturing provided by Volvo car philosophy, and gradually build a more modular platform, icon production model is the second paragraph under the BMA platform. While Geely’s product quality and perhaps not perfect, but it is undeniable that the majority of Chinese consumers have fully endorsed the Geely brand, and will actively choose to buy Geely brand cars. 20 years ago, Geely, Li Shufu, perhaps only a dream of; 20 years later, he was those considered unrealistic dreams have all come true.
2019 Guangzhou Auto Show, Geely brings us not only the “icon” This concept car look like the production car, it will bring us their successful course of development, China’s car the rise of the process of pride, but also a new beginning is Geely, Great Wall, Guangzhou Automobile, SAIC and other positive independent manufacturers began full force. China is to the world, and perhaps not a monster. Chinese auto brand in the world, perhaps not too important. However, the next 10 years, 20 years, Chinese auto brand in the world, whether in the end still change the status quo? From the emergence of Geely Automobile icon, I see the possibility.
