Recently, Geely Automobile officially released the 2025 model and announced that the model will be officially launched in November. As a new member of the family, the 2025 Binyue L has been fully upgraded in appearance, interior and power system, which is highly anticipated.

Compared with the current models, the design of the 2025 Binyue L has been adjusted, and the overall shape is more fashionable and dynamic. In the front part, the new car adopts a large-size banner front grille and is equipped with a brand-new headlight group. The LED light source is used inside the headlight group, which has high recognition after lighting, giving people a very delicate feeling.

On the side of the car body, the lines of the new car are very smooth, and with the sporty rims, the overall shape is very young. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the 2025 Binyue L are 4330/1800/1609 mm respectively, and the wheelbase has reached 2600 mm, which has improved the space performance compared with the current models.

Entering the car, the interior design of the 2025 Binyue L gives people a very refreshing feeling. Above the center console, a 14.6-inch central touch screen is very eye-catching. With the brand-new E02 cockpit chip, the system is very responsive and operates smoothly.

In addition to the big screen, the new car is also equipped with a full LCD dashboard and a sense of technology. It is worth mentioning that the central control system of 2025 Binyue L supports desktop customization function, and users can quickly set commonly used functions according to their own preferences, which is very convenient to use.

In terms of power system, the 2025 Binyue L is equipped with a 1.5TD engine, with a maximum power of 133 kW and a peak torque of 250 Nm, with excellent power performance. Thanks to the lightweight body and advanced power adjustment, the 0-100 km acceleration time of the 2025 Binyue L is only 7.6 seconds, which gives people a very strong driving pleasure.

In contrast, the comprehensive fuel consumption of the 2025 Binyue L is only 6.35 liters per 100 kilometers, and its fuel economy performance is excellent, which is very friendly for daily urban commuting.

In addition to excellent power performance, the 2025 Binyue L will also be equipped with a number of L2 intelligent driving assistance systems, including adaptive cruise, lane keeping assistance, automatic parking and other functions, which greatly improves the safety and convenience of driving.

It is foreseeable that with the continuous development of intelligent technology, the small SUV market in the future will pay more and more attention to intelligent configuration, and the launch of the 2025 Binyue L will undoubtedly provide consumers with more choices and may also lead the technical trend of small SUVs in the future.

As a brand-new small SUV, the launch of the 2025 Binyue L will undoubtedly have a certain impact on the current small SUV market. With the increasing demand of consumers for small SUVs, major automobile manufacturers have also increased their layout in this market segment, and the competition can be said to be quite fierce.

As an old model in this market segment, Geely Binyue has always been loved by consumers. With its excellent cost performance and rich configuration, Binyue series models have also achieved good results in the market.

It is foreseeable that the launch of the 2025 Binyue L will further enrich the market choices, and may also have a certain impact on competing models at the same level, especially in terms of cost performance, Binyue L is expected to have a certain competitive advantage.

With the continuous popularization of new energy vehicles, more and more consumers begin to pay attention to electric vehicles, and traditional fuel vehicles are also facing certain challenges. It is foreseeable that the future automobile market will develop in the direction of electrification.

As a well-known automobile manufacturer in China, Geely Automobile has always attached great importance to the research and development and production of new energy vehicles. It can be guessed that in the future, Geely may launch an electric version of Binyue L to meet consumers’ demand for electric SUVs, and may also make breakthroughs in cruising range and charging convenience to provide consumers with a better car experience.

Recently, the 2024 model has arrived at dealerships across the country for display. The car will be officially launched in July, and minor adjustments have been made to various aspects such as exterior, interior, and power. Although the changes are not significant, there are indeed many modifications, which are equivalent to a major facelift. In fact, it is equivalent to keeping up with the new pace and maintaining the synchronized performance of the same level of models.

Specifically, the biggest change in appearance is the increase in the amount of chrome plating, whether it is an important version of the horizontal strip or a large area of chrome plating in the honeycomb shape, or a silver decorative strip, in short, showing a stronger visual impact and a sense of advanced, and no longer adhere to the so-called sportiness. It seems that I have found that I do not have that kind of temperament, obviously I have figured out something. On the side of the body, the overall design of the new car will not change significantly, but it is still a relatively low and second slender standard line. The main difference is that the wheel hub adopts a new black shape, which has a stronger sense of power and luxury, corresponding to the chrome-plated front.

In the rear part of the car, the most significant change is the addition of a light bar that can be lit inside the through taillight, which really forms a through light source, not just a red decorative strip, showing a stronger sense of recognition and technology. In addition, the rear bumper part also has certain adjustments, corresponding to the front of the car, so that the style of the whole car is unified. In the interior part, the new car changes are more obvious, the first is the increase in the size of the central control screen, 12.3 inches widescreen, with better visual effects, but also updated to the same car. Of course, the corresponding LCD dashboard also has an interface update, showing a stronger sense of technology.

On this basis, it may be because the widening of the screen is not below, so the floating screen design is adopted, but this unique floating shape is trended with a touch-wrapped air conditioner, which is very personalized. On this basis, of course, it comes from the modification of the front end area of the armrest box, which is no longer connected, so there is an independent shape that adds a larger area of leather stitching process to cover more advanced, and the overall area is also lifted upward, which makes a smoother transition with the central armrest box, which is more elegant. In addition, another modification is that the steering wheel adopts the same latest family style as the Camry, with clearer multi-function buttons and more refined overall.

In addition, there are some routine enhancements, such as the addition of more delicate stitching technology to cover the seats and colorful atmosphere light strips, reflecting the visual effect that the new car should have in 2024. Of course, the signboard’s ubiquitous wood grain decoration will not be absent, showing the unique Japanese luxury style. In terms of power, the new car is also synchronized with the new Camry, equipped with 2.0-liter fuel, 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter systems. All kinds of power and parameters are basically the same, and it has a better performance in terms of economy. It is matched with CVT or ECVT gearboxes. More information has yet to be officially announced, which is very worth looking forward to.

A few days ago, Shenlong Automobile Co., Ltd. filed a recall plan with the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine in accordance with the requirements of the "Regulations on the Administration of Recall of Defective Automobile Products", and decided to recall some Dongfeng Peugeot 408, 308, 2008 cars and Dongfeng Citroen C3-XR cars produced in September 2016, totaling 10,194 vehicles.

Recently, Audi officially revealed the official picture of the new generation of Audi Q5, marking the upcoming update of this mid-sized luxury SUV. The new car shares the PPC advanced fuel vehicle platform with the Audi A5, and has undergone a comprehensive renovation in appearance and interior.

The new Audi Q5 is equipped with "active digital lighting" LED headlights, as well as intermittent LED daytime running lights, which not only improve the visibility, but also support eight display graphics switching.

At 8:00 am on September 20, the Apple iPhone 16 series was officially launched in major Apple stores. At 10:08 on the same day, the Huawei MateXT extraordinary master who had opened an appointment earlier was also officially launched. Huawei and Apple, the two global consumer electronics giants, once again competed head-on.

The iPhone 16 is on sale less than in previous years

At about 9 am on the same day, a reporter from Securities Times E Company came to Apple Yitian Holiday Plaza store and saw that the entrance of the store was still the same as in previous years, showing a long queue of users who had booked a new machine waiting to pick up the new machine, but the flow of people was slightly less than in previous years. At the same time, around the store, as in previous years, there were many "scalpers" of the iPhone 16 series on site.

"We only accept the iPhone16 Pro Max, with a price increase of 200 yuan. We will not accept it in the afternoon. We are also betting on the market now. The price of Huawei’s three-fold screen is about 20,000, and the price increase of 20,000 to 30,000 cannot be received. The total price will be sold to 50,000 to 60,000." At 9 am on September 20, the "scalper" who recycled the iPhone 16 series at the entrance of the store told reporters.

There are also a small number of "scalpers" who say that the iPhone 16 Pro version is also accepted, but the price increase is very small, only 50 yuan to 100 yuan per unit.

"It’s not even enough for the taxi fare," someone who has just received Apple’s new phone for sale told reporters.

The reporter saw at the scene that there were also some "fruit fans" who had not pre-ordered the iPhone 16 on Apple’s official website and tried to increase the price on the spot to buy a new machine. For them, this year’s price increase was acceptable, "I didn’t get it on the official website before, I’m going to buy a Pro Max512G black from scalpers, and the price increase is 500 yuan. I feel that the price is okay."

In comparison, in previous years iPhone new products on sale, consumers from the market to buy Pro and above versions generally need to increase the price of 800 yuan to thousands of yuan, last year iPhone15 Pro Max had the highest price increase of more than 2000 yuan.

In terms of the basic version of iPhone16, there has been a "break" before the sale. It is understood that on September 19, the day before the launch of the iPhone16 series, the price of the iPhone 16 official website started from 5999, and the subsidy price of Pinduoduo started from 5399 yuan, a direct drop of 600 yuan; iPhone 16 Plus (512GB) official website price was 9999 yuan, and the subsidy price of Pinduoduo was 8999 yuan. The discount was as high as 1,000 yuan.

Today, the reporter found that some offline stores can directly buy iPhone 16, and the price is 200 yuan – 300 yuan lower than the official website.

In the early morning of September 10, Apple officially released the iPhone 16 series. iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus start at 5,999 yuan and 6,999 yuan respectively. iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus have five colors to choose from, namely black, white, pink, dark cyan and ultra cyan. iPhone 16 Pro 128GB starts at 7,999 yuan, iPhone 16 Pro Max 256GB starts at 9,999 yuan. The iPhone 16 Pro series has a total of four colors, including white titanium, black titanium, primary color titanium and the latest "desert titanium".

On September 13, after the iPhone 16 series opened for pre-order, recently, Tianfeng Securities analyst Guo Mingyu released data showing that the iPhone 16 series sold about 37 million units in the first weekend of pre-order, a decrease of about 12.7% compared with the same period of iPhone 15 series last year.

Kuo said one of the biggest reasons for iPhone sales this year was lower than expected demand for the iPhone 16 Pro series. In addition, the failure of Apple Intelligence, the biggest selling point of the iPhone 16 series, to launch at the same time as the iPhone 16 series is also affecting sales. According to Apple, the Chinese, French, Japanese and Spanish versions of Apple Intelligence will be available as soon as next year.

Yu Chengdong: Working overtime to expand production capacity

It is worth mentioning that on the same day as the iPhone 16 series went on sale, Huawei MateXT Extraordinary Master also went on sale at 10:08 today.

At around 10 am that day, the reporter came to Huawei Yitian Holiday Plaza store and found that the store was ready for the sale of Huawei MateXT Extraordinary Master, and there were a small number of users who snapped up the machine online (Huawei Mall).

At the same time, the store also showcased two new Huawei MateXT Extraordinary Master red and black machines, but unlike other new machines displayed by Huawei, the Huawei MateXT Extraordinary Master displayed in the store has a transparent glass box locked on the periphery, and the store can only experience the appearance, temporarily unable to experience it with your own hands.

"We have a fixed time to display the machine and for consumers to experience the machine. At present, this model only accepts information registration and reservation, and the time to get the real machine is to be determined." The staff in the store told reporters.

Before the sale (23:59 on September 19), the official website data of Huawei Mall shows that as of now, the number of reservations for Huawei Mate XT has reached 6.622 million.

After the panic buying started, all models of Mate XT Extraordinary Master were "empty in seconds". At present, online platforms such as Huawei Mall, JD.com, and Tmall Flagship Store all show "temporarily out of stock".

On the morning of the same day, Yu Chengdong, executive director of Huawei, chairperson of end point BG, and chairperson of smart car solutions BU, appeared at the flagship store on Nanjing East Road in Shanghai to attend the first delivery ceremony of Huawei Mate XT extraordinary master.

Yu Chengdong said at the delivery ceremony that the popularity of Huawei’s triple-folding mobile phone far exceeded expectations, and the team is working overtime to expand production capacity.

"We can’t grab it even if we want to buy it ourselves," a Huawei employee told reporters.

Reporters in some domestic second-hand platforms found that Huawei MateXT extraordinary prices as high as 68,000 yuan/unit.

Huawei Mate XT Extraordinary Master was officially released on September 10, Beijing time, priced at 19999 yuan to 23,999 yuan, providing 256GB, 512GB and 1TB models. On online platforms such as Huawei Mall and Tmall flagship store, the same user can only buy one.

On September 19, Guo Mingsheng issued a document saying that the latest supply chain survey shows that due to the high demand in the market, the shipment forecast of Huawei’s three-fold mobile phone Mate XT in 2024 has been doubled, and it has been raised from the 500,000 department to the 1 million department.

Ethan Qi, associate director of research at Counterpoint, told reporters that the launch of this new product can solidify Huawei’s technological leadership in the field of folding screens. To a certain extent, this is the right strategy, because this process will help Huawei accumulate experience in developing more complex folding smartphones. In addition, as folding screen technology becomes more mature, consumers are more and more accepting of folding screen phones. It is very wise for Huawei to choose this time to launch new products with more acceptable weight, thickness and reliability. Now may be a good time for Huawei to take the folding design to a new level.
