Chery’s Cowin Kaiyi i-CX SUV

首推i-CX SUV概念车 凯翼品牌正式发布

奇瑞控股集团旗下的凯翼汽车,由安徽省江北开发公司、奇瑞商用车公司和芜湖建投公司三方共同出资合办,首款中级SUV概念车i-CX同时亮相。

英文名“COWIN”是一个组合词,“Co”代表着携手联合、联袂共赢;“Win”意为赢取达到、获得成功。“COWIN”意为“携手联合同心共赢”。中文凯翼:“凯”意为胜利、凯旋,“翼”意为胜利的翅膀。

动力方面,i-CX将提供1.6TCI、1.4TGDI、插电式混合动力三种动力配备,与之匹配的是6挡手动或6挡DCT双离合变速器,新车还采用了全时四驱系统。

奇瑞控股集团旗下的凯翼汽车,由安徽省江北开发公司、奇瑞商用车公司和芜湖建投公司三方共同出资合办,象征着“凯旋之翼”的品牌logo由企业名称演化而来。

而品牌发布会上,凯翼推出了首款i-CX SUV概念车。新车外观设计沿袭了凯翼品牌的飞翼元素,最明显体现在前脸的进气格栅处。该车的长宽高分别为4577mm/1946mm/1709mm,轴距为2800mm。

In mid March, there was some news about the long-rumored Jiangbei project. A few days ago, a company called “Wuhu Kaiyi Automotive Co., Ltd.” rose to the surface. Kaiyi Auto was registered in the Wuhu Jiangbei Industrial Concentrative Area, and the director of the Anhui Jiangbei Industrial Concentrative Area Administrative Commission said in an interview, “Kaiyi Auto is Chery’s Jiangbei Project.” Different from the previous speculation that Chery Jiangbei Project undertook Chery’s knockout assets in transition, Kayi Auto, with a registered capital of RMB 2 billion, also integrates Chery’s existing assets other than passenger cars, and the peripheral businesses like Chery’s commercial car, micro car Karry, etc. will also be involved in “Kaoyi Auto.”

The registration information of Kaiyi Auto indicates that it is a commercial vehicle manufacturer. Data show that the company’s business scope covers vehicle and parts technical development, auto parts manufacturing, auto (excluding passenger cars with less than 9 seats) and auto parts sales. However, this does not mean that Kaiyi Auto does not deal passenger car business. “Kaiyi is a vehicle manufacturer producing both passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles with Karry and Chery low-end passenger cars as the mainstream products,” said by an insider from Chery. This structure resembles much that of SGMW.

Back on 8/28/14, you told us:

“…..the peripheral businesses like Chery’s commercial car, micro car Karry, etc. will also be involved in “Kaoyi Auto”. ”. (i.e. Kaiyi)

But it seems that Chery “Karry”, which produces vehicles in Kaifeng of Henan Province, never became involved in the Wuhu Kaiyi (tripartite) project, which produces Cowin models in Hebei Province.
Could you kindly clarify this. Thank you.
