In the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Supreme Leader clearly pointed out: "Socialism with Chinese characteristics is the theme of all theories and practices of the Party since the reform and opening up." "The whole Party should enhance its road confidence, theoretical self-confidence, institutional self-confidence and cultural self-confidence more consciously, and never take the old road of being closed and rigid, nor take the evil road of changing its flag, maintain its political strength, persist in prospering the country through hard work, and always adhere to and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics." These important expositions are concise and in fact contain five concepts: Socialism with Chinese characteristics, Socialism with Chinese characteristics Road, Socialism with Chinese characteristics Theory System, Socialism with Chinese characteristics System and Socialism with Chinese characteristics Culture. A correct understanding of the scientific connotations of these five concepts is of great significance for us to thoroughly study and implement the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era and win the great victory of Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.

　　Socialism with Chinese characteristics is a great banner that our party has always held high.

　　As early as November 1920, Comrade Mao Zedong vividly pointed out: "Doctrine is like a flag. When the flag is erected, everyone has hope and knows where to go." Socialism with Chinese characteristics is such a flag as Comrade Mao Zedong said. In the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Supreme Leader pointed out that the theme of the congress is: Do not forget your initiative mind, keep in mind the mission, hold high the great banner of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, win the decisive battle to build a well-off society in an all-round way, win the great victory of Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, and make unremitting efforts to realize the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The emphasis on "holding high the great banner of Socialism with Chinese characteristics" in the theme of the conference shows that Socialism with Chinese characteristics is a great banner that our party has always held high.

　　Socialism with Chinese characteristics is mainly composed of the following parts: First, the guiding ideology of our party, namely, Marxism–Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory, Theory of Three Represents, Scientific Outlook on Development, and Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era; The second is Socialism with Chinese characteristics Road; Third, Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s theoretical system; The fourth is the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system; Fifth, Socialism with Chinese characteristics culture. What needs to be emphasized here is that the guiding ideology of our Party and Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s theoretical system are different concepts with both connections and differences. Our party’s guiding ideology includes Marxism–Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought, while Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s theoretical system does not include Marxism–Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought, but it is in the same strain with Marxism–Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought and insists on development.

　　Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has scientifically grasped the development trend of today’s world and contemporary China, complied with practical requirements and people’s wishes, made great achievements in all aspects, and promoted historic changes in the cause of the party and the state. The achievements in the past five years are all-round and groundbreaking, and the changes in the past five years are deep-seated and fundamental. This fully shows that it is completely correct for our Party to hold high the great banner of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and uphold and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics. Our firm belief in the "four self-confidences" is essentially our firm confidence in Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

　　Socialism with Chinese characteristics Road is the only way to realize socialist modernization and create a better life for the people.

　　Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s road is not only reflected in adhering to economic construction as the center, but also in comprehensively promoting economic construction, political construction, cultural construction, social construction, ecological civilization construction and other aspects. It is the only way to realize socialist modernization and create a better life for the people. It should be pointed out that in a society, economy is the foundation, which is not only the foundation of political superstructure, but also the foundation of cultural superstructure. This determines that adhering to the road of Socialism with Chinese characteristics means adhering to the road of economic development in Socialism with Chinese characteristics. Of course, the road of economic development is first embodied in the political superstructure and a certain economic system, which can be called as it should be; However, the actual situation of this economic system in the economic field belongs to the category of economic foundation, which can be called reality. The road of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s economic development is reflected in the implementation of the "should be" economic system in the real economic field, mainly in the actual situation of ownership and distribution relations and interpersonal relations. In the primary stage of socialism, to adhere to the Socialism with Chinese characteristics road, we must adhere to the principle of public ownership as the main body and the common development of various forms of ownership, actively and steadily solve the problem of excessive gap between wealth possession and income distribution, and constantly move towards common prosperity. Only by unswervingly adhering to the basic economic system in the primary stage of socialism can we fundamentally reflect the socialist nature of our country and the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people, and our party, country and nation will have a bright future.

　　At present, people often mention the "China Road". Broadly speaking, the "China Road" can include China’s revolution, construction and reform and opening up; In a narrow sense, "China Road" refers to Socialism with Chinese characteristics Road. At present, the international community is paying more and more attention to the road of China, and its recognition is getting higher and higher. The "China model" and "China road" are being hotly debated at home and abroad. The formulation of "China Model" gives people a sense of solidification when it is completed and no longer develops. In fact, China’s current development mode is changing, and it cannot be said that it has become a solidified development model. Second, it is suspected of promotion or even expansion. Therefore, it is not appropriate to simply use the "China model" to summarize the Socialism with Chinese characteristics road, but to use the "China road".

　　Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s theoretical system is the correct theory to guide the party and the people to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

　　Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s theoretical system is a scientific theoretical system including Deng Xiaoping Theory, Theory of Three Represents, Scientific Outlook on Development and the Supreme Leader’s New Era Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought. This theoretical system was gradually formed and developed by our Party by combining the universal truth of Marxism–Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought with the new reality and new characteristics of the times in China’s reform and opening up. Just as Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought developed Marxism in many important aspects, so they were singled out from Marxism, so Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s theoretical system also developed Marxism–Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought in many important aspects, so they were singled out.

　　It should also be pointed out that there is a close relationship between Mao Zedong Thought and Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s theoretical system. Comrade Deng Xiaoping once said, "After the Third Plenary Session, we just restored the correct things of Comrade Mao Zedong, that is, accurately and completely studied and applied Mao Zedong Thought. The basic points are still those. In many ways, we still do what Comrade Mao Zedong has put forward but hasn’t done, correct what he opposed wrong, and do what he hasn’t done well. We will still do this for a long time to come. Of course, we have also developed and will continue to develop. " This illustrates the relationship between Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s theoretical system and Mao Zedong Thought, which is in the same strain and keeps pace with the times.

　　Comrade Supreme Leader pointed out in the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China: "After long-term efforts, Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, which is a new historical orientation for China’s development." The Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era is the latest achievement in adapting to this new era, the inheritance and development of Marxism–Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory, Theory of Three Represents and Scientific Outlook on Development, the crystallization of the practical experience and collective wisdom of the Party and the people, an important part of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s theoretical system, and an action guide for the whole party and people to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We must persist in it for a long time and continue to develop it.

　　Socialism with Chinese characteristics system is the fundamental institutional guarantee for the development and progress of contemporary China.

　　Socialism with Chinese characteristics system is a brand-new social system that was established and formed after the founding of New China and gradually enriched and improved during the reform and opening up period. It is the fundamental institutional guarantee for the development and progress of contemporary China, which embodies the nature, characteristics and advantages of Socialism with Chinese characteristics. It is a set of interconnected and interrelated institutional systems formed in various fields such as economy, politics, culture, society and ecological civilization in the process of promoting the self-improvement and development of the socialist system. The Socialism with Chinese characteristics system insists on organically combining the basic political system, the basic political system with the basic economic system, various institutional mechanisms and other specific systems, and on organically unifying the party’s leadership, the people being the masters of the country and governing the country according to law, thus providing an effective institutional guarantee for the cause development of Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

　　The Socialism with Chinese characteristics system embodies the organic unity of our country’s state system and political system. The socialist system is the fundamental system of our country. Under this fundamental system, there are the people’s congress system, the multi-party cooperation and political consultation system led by the Communist Party of China (CPC), the regional ethnic autonomy system and the grassroots mass autonomy system. There is a basic economic system in the primary stage of socialism in China with public ownership as the main body and multiple ownership economies developing together, and a distribution system with distribution according to work as the main body and multiple modes of distribution coexisting; Socialist legal system with Chinese characteristics; There are corresponding economic system, political system, cultural system, social system, ecological civilization system and other specific systems.

　　To strengthen institutional confidence, we must adhere to the leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC). Comrade Supreme Leader pointed out in the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China: "The most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics is the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership, the greatest advantage of the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system is the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership, and the Party is the highest political leadership". In the process of upholding and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics, why do we repeatedly emphasize upholding the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership? First, upholding the party’s leadership is the necessity of China’s historical development and the choice of the people; Second, adhere to the party’s leadership from the party’s purpose is to serve the people wholeheartedly; Third, our Party is the strong leading core of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s cause, and it is in the position of commanding the overall situation and coordinating all parties. At present, there is a view that the success of the revolution requires the leadership of the party. In the period of construction, especially in the period of reform, as long as there is a sound political system and the rule of law is adhered to, the people can be the masters of the country. This is a great misunderstanding. The history of socialist development in the world proves that upholding the leadership of the Party is not only the primary condition and universal law for seizing and mastering state power, but also the primary condition and universal law for socialist construction and reform.

　　Socialism with Chinese characteristics culture is a powerful spiritual force that inspires the whole party and people of all nationalities to forge ahead courageously.

　　Culture is the soul of a country and a nation. Socialism with Chinese characteristics culture can be said to be mainly composed of the following parts: first, the theoretical system of Marxism–Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought and Socialism with Chinese characteristics; Second, the revolutionary culture and advanced socialist culture created by the party leading the people in revolution, construction and reform; Third, the excellent Chinese traditional culture nurtured by the Chinese nation’s 5,000-year history of civilization; The fourth is the excellent traditional culture of all countries and nationalities in the world that China has actively borrowed from. These parts are not juxtaposed. The theoretical system of Marxism–Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought and Socialism with Chinese characteristics is the soul of Socialism with Chinese characteristics culture, the revolutionary culture and advanced socialist culture created by the Party leading the people are the main contents of Socialism with Chinese characteristics culture, the excellent traditional Chinese culture is the rich fertile soil of Socialism with Chinese characteristics culture, and the excellent traditional cultures of all countries and nationalities in the world actively borrowed from it are the beneficial nourishment of Socialism with Chinese characteristics culture. Cultural self-confidence is more basic, broader and deeper self-confidence. We must persist in taking Marxism as the guidance, carry forward the socialist core values, carry forward the national spirit with patriotism as the core and the spirit of the times with reform and innovation as the core, and constantly enhance the spiritual strength of the whole party and the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country.

　　The above five aspects are closely linked, interdependent and inseparable. Socialism with Chinese characteristics, as a great banner held high by our Party, is in charge, which stipulates the fundamental nature and direction of road, theory, system and culture. Road is the way to achieve, theoretical system is the guide to action, system is the fundamental guarantee, and culture is the profound foundation, which are unified in the great cause of Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

　　On September 7th, Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area workers celebrated the 70th anniversary of the founding of People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the 20th anniversary of the establishment of the Macao Special Administrative Region. The performance was jointly sponsored by Guangdong Federation of Trade Unions, Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions and Macau Federation of Trade Unions. The picture shows the audience waving a five-star red flag and singing My People，My Country. China News Service reporter Chen Yushe

　　When Chen Zhuoxi, the principal of Hong Kong Professional Continuing Education School, was young, there were not many opportunities to see the five-star red flag. As a primary school student, he made a small five-star red flag with a small wooden stick and raised it at home in Hong Kong. "I was born in a family that loves China and Hong Kong, and I was greatly influenced by my parents." Chen Zhuoxi told reporters.

　　My parents left a commemorative medallion for the founding of New China, which Chen Zhuoxi keeps to this day. "At that time, my parents were still young people. They bought this medal specially, so I can imagine the happy mood at that time." Since Hong Kong returned to the motherland in 1997, the five-star red flag has been flying in the wind on Hong Kong Island.

　　In 1999, Cui Shiping, chairman of the Macao Chinese Cultural Exchange Association, who was studying in Tsinghua University, took the urban planning and development of Macao as the topic of his doctoral thesis, and the relevant suggestions were adopted by the Macao SAR government. "Before the reunification, Macao’s economic development and public security situation were not ideal. After the reunification, Macao residents participated in the construction with the attitude of being masters and devoted themselves to development. " He told reporters.

　　The 70 years of New China are 70 years of rapid development, and 70 years of joint efforts by compatriots from Hong Kong and Macao and the motherland.

　　Feel the great changes personally

　　Chen Zhuoxi’s hometown is in Nanhai, Guangdong Province. When he was young, he went to the mainland for an exchange visit. Sitting on the train from Shenzhen to Guangzhou, he saw picturesque mountains and rivers outside the window, and the construction of the motherland advanced by leaps and bounds more than a few years ago. The car broadcast is playing "Singing the Motherland", and the bright melody falls on Chen Zhuoxi’s heart. "There is a very kind feeling of going home."

　　"Hong Kong people have counted up to three generations, and many of them have come from the mainland." Chen Yong, vice chairman of the Hong Kong Democratic Alliance for Betterment of Hong Kong (DAB), told the reporter that his father was a returned overseas Chinese, his mother was a native of Henan Province, and he was born in the Mainland. When growing up, Chen Yong, who went back to the mainland to visit relatives with his family many times, witnessed the rapid changes in the motherland. "Every time I go back, I will find that the impression of my hometown and childhood has changed a lot, and infrastructure construction has mushroomed. Many aspects of development were unimaginable before." Chen Yong said.

　　Yu Guochun, the chairman of Hong Kong Yuhua Domestic Department Store Co., Ltd., was born in 1951 and is known as the "king of domestic products". Sixty years ago, his father was invited to Beijing to participate in the 10th anniversary of the National Day. It was in that year that his father founded Yuhua Chinese products, which means "rich China". Yu Guochun told reporters that his father hopes to sell China’s high-quality products overseas through Hong Kong, and at the same time, open up the country’s foreign trade channels and increase foreign exchange income. "When Yuhua first opened in 1959, it only sold a few hundred kinds of goods. Today, we have sold hundreds of thousands of high-quality domestic products. " Yu Guochun said, "Our domestic products have benefited from the development of the motherland, especially the reform and opening up and the return of Hong Kong. I am honored to be a witness and participant and personally feel the great changes. "

　　Liang Weite, Financial Secretary of the Macao SAR Government, told reporters that Macao’s development achievements today also benefited from the country’s reform and opening up, especially after Macao’s return to the motherland, under the advantage of "one country, two systems", with the strong support of the state and the concerted efforts of all walks of life in Macao, Macao has undergone earth-shaking changes.

　　Better integrate into the mainland

　　In 1996, Hong Kong businessman Feng Guoyou shifted his career focus to the mainland. At that time, Hong Kong had not yet returned to China, and some Hong Kong businessmen lacked confidence in developing their businesses in the Mainland. Feng Guoyou hopes to tell Hong Kong compatriots the real situation in the Mainland through personal experience and attract more Hong Kong businessmen to develop in the Mainland.

　　With the return of Hong Kong to the embrace of the motherland, more and more Hong Kong people go to the Mainland to show their talents. Feng Guoyou, a veteran "North drifter", established the Hong Kong Professionals (Beijing) Association in 2011 to help Hong Kong people better integrate into the Mainland. At the beginning, there were only 30 or 50 small teams, but now there are 1300 members, covering many industries and highlighting the characteristics of youth, innovation and technology.

　　Borong Wang, chairman of the Youth Affairs Committee of the Association, said: "In recent years, the state has launched many measures to help Hong Kong people integrate into the overall development. For example, it is very positive to cancel the employment permit of Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao personnel in the Mainland and implement the residence permit system for Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan residents. "

　　Chen Zhuoxi said that about a quarter of the students in Hong Kong professional continuing education schools go to the Mainland for exchanges and internships every year. "Many students go to the mainland, not only to visit schools, enterprises or scenic spots, but also to visit mainland students’ homes and take the initiative to invite mainland students to Hong Kong. This two-way communication has enabled students to build deep feelings, and Hong Kong students have a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of the Mainland. "

　　Chen Zhuoxi said that today, with the increasingly close ties between Hong Kong and the Mainland, I hope that young people in Hong Kong will conform to the trend of the times and take the initiative to integrate into the overall situation of national development.

　　In Chen Yong’s view, since the 18th CPC National Congress, the Belt and Road Initiative and the construction of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area have created precious opportunities for Hong Kong to take off again, and Hong Kong should seize the opportunity to accelerate its development. "I hope that the country will introduce more development achievements in all aspects to Hong Kong, so that Hong Kong can better integrate into national development and continue to maintain prosperity."

　　Highlight institutional advantages

　　Chen Yong said that after Hong Kong’s return to the motherland, it shared the huge dividends of national development, which included the benefits of "one country" and the convenience of "two systems". Backed by the motherland, Hong Kong can play the role of a "super contact" through the Belt and Road Initiative and the construction of Greater Bay Area, and hopes to become a "super partner" and a "super participant".

　　Yu Guochun said that the state recently announced its support for Shenzhen’s construction of the Socialism with Chinese characteristics Pilot Demonstration Zone, which is of great benefit to Hong Kong, and is conducive to further promoting the construction of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and promoting Hong Kong’s long-term development and prosperity and stability.

　　This year marks the 20th anniversary of Macao’s return to the motherland, and it is also the year when the Outline of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Development Plan was promulgated. Liang Weite said that the country has now given Macao a clear positioning: a world tourism and leisure center and a service platform for business cooperation between China and Portuguese-speaking countries. This is also an important entry point for Macao to serve the country and give full play to its own strengths. The construction of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is an important historical opportunity to promote the moderate and diversified development of Macao’s economy.

　　Xiao Zhiwei, president of the Macao Development Strategy Research Center, told reporters that Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has been written into the government work report for three consecutive years, reflecting that Greater Bay Area has been highly valued and concerned at the national level. "Greater Bay Area construction can promote ‘ One country, two systems ’ New practice has formed a new pattern of comprehensive opening up. " Xiao Zhiwei is full of expectation and confidence for the future development of Macao in the new era.

　　Cui Shiping believes that before the reunification, Macao actively cultivated people’s patriotic feelings and accumulated economic and social foundations. After the reunification, the strong vitality of "one country, two systems" has been demonstrated by meeting the needs of the country and giving full play to Macao’s strengths. He said that since the founding of New China 70 years ago, earth-shaking changes have taken place, and Macao people have become more and more patriotic and United. "Home and everything. If the country is good, Macao will be better. "

　　[News] Judging from the current China market, the sales performance of medium-sized cars is still in a relatively hot state, and this market is still an important market that major joint venture brands strive for. Therefore, in the year after the replacement, as one of the important medium-sized cars of the brand, domestic products also officially ushered in the replacement after a lapse of 9 years. The new Regal is a model that everyone pays more attention to recently, and we also know that it will be on sale in June this year. So what kind of surprise can the new Regal bring us? What will be its product positioning and competitors? Can you return to the glory of the two kings with the help of replacement? In this article, let’s take a look at it together.

● Introduction of the new Regal:

◆ Model background: It was first introduced in China in December 2002 and has gone through three generations of models.

The first generation of Regal made in China made a good start.

"The picture shows the 2006 Regal"

　　Let’s go back to 2002. On December 26th of that year, Shanghai General Motors Co., Ltd. officially unveiled a brand-new model and named it Regal. This car is the fourth generation model of overseas Regal, and it is also the first domestic landing in China market. With its atmospheric appearance, luxurious interior and several powerful power systems of 2.0L four-cylinder, 2.5L V6 and 3.0L V6, Buick Regal has won the attention of many domestic consumers and made a good start.

The second generation regal made in China builds the glory of two monarchs.

"The picture shows the 2012 Regal"

　　Six years later, on December 1st, 2008, the second-generation domestic Regal was officially put on the market. The new car was built on the universal Epsilon II global platform, shared the platform with Buick LaCrosse, and made many sports style adjustments, such as appearance and so on, which further enhanced the luxury and sportiness of Regal. In addition, after the early launch of 2.0L and 2.4L models, the domestic second-generation Regal also added 2.0T and 1.6T models in the following time, further conforming to the trend. In particular, the launch of the 2.0T Regal GS model made Regal different from the LaCrosse on the road of sports medium-sized cars, which won the love of young consumers. At that time, it successfully built a double glory with the domestic LaCrosse. (According to the sales volume, Shuangjun Group achieved sales of nearly 200,000 vehicles in 2015 and nearly 180,000 vehicles in 2010 and 2011.)

What kind of surprise will the domestic third-generation Regal bring when it comes late?

"The picture shows the new domestic Regal"

　　At present, the domestic second-generation Regal 2015 models are still on sale in China market. From the time point of view, it has been nearly nine years from 2008 to 2017. At the same time, in this era when the automobile industry is changing with each passing day, nine years is inevitably too long for Buick Regal to replace. Seeing that many competitors have successively upgraded their models and launched new cars, Regal is at a disadvantage in terms of product competitiveness and market influence, and the arrival of the domestic third-generation Regal also seems a bit late. However, after 9 years of R&D and innovation, what product highlights will Buick’s new Regal have? What kind of surprise will it bring us? Let’s continue to look down.

◆ Brand-new platform, with the latest family design.

"Domestic brand-new Regal"

"Brand-new appearance"

　　The brand-new Regal was unveiled on a small scale overseas in early April this year, and the brand-new domestic Regal also made its debut at the Shanghai Auto Show, which opened in April this year. In fact, as early as before the appearance of the new Regal, we can roughly grasp what the new Regal looks like by referring to the new British speed Asia that was unveiled at the overseas auto show. The reason is that GM has adopted different brand vehicle strategies in different regions of the world. As a global vehicle, the brand-new Regal is built on the latest E2XX globalization platform of GM (the current model is Epsilon II platform), and different brands are used for sales in different regions: Buick is labeled as a new generation of Regal in China and the United States; The Australian market will label Horton; British market labeling vauxhall; In the European market, Opel is labeled as a new generation of Insua.

　　Judging from the new car launched, the brand-new Regal adopted the brand-new design style of Buick family, and the flying wing grille shape has also become the fourth Buick model with this design after the brand-new LaCrosse and after. Compared with the current models, the new car has changed greatly. The headlight group adopts a brand-new matrix design, and the headlights are composed of 37 LED light sources. After lighting, the recognition is very high, which makes the new car look sharper and more in line with the aesthetic needs of young people. However, in terms of the same model, no one is really embarrassed to say hello to others.

　　In addition, it is worth noting that the center of the new Regal engine cover has a high-rise line design, which is in contrast with the brand-new LaCrosse listed before, which also reflects the more sporty design style of the brand-new Regal to some extent.

◆ Domestic exclusive sedan version, the wheelbase is 92mm longer than the current model.

"The picture shows the brand-new Regal made in China"

　　From the side, the new domestic Regal adopts a streamlined body design, and the lines on the side of the body are richer than those of the current models. The rising waistline runs through the front and rear door handles, and the lines behind the C-pillar are smoother, with a hint of coupe style. Sexy is also more pleasing.

"The new Regal Sportback』 unveiled overseas"

"The brand-new Regal TourX』 unveiled overseas"

　　It is also worth mentioning that, although Regal is a global model, it will only provide a version in China market, while in overseas markets, it will provide Sportback (Slipback Edition) and TourX (Cross-border Travel Edition). At present, the sedan version is still the most popular car model in China market, which also reflects Buick’s special adjustment to China consumers.

　　In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new domestic Regal are 4902mm/1863mm/1456mm and 2829mm respectively (reaching the size of mainstream medium-sized cars), which is the same as that of overseas models. Although there is no deliberate domestic lengthening, compared with the current models, the wheelbase of the new car is increased by 92mm, the height of the car body is increased by 59mm, the width is increased by 7mm, and the height is decreased by 28mm, showing a lower visual effect as a whole. At the same time, the longer wheelbase and the length of the car body also bring better rear legroom for the new car without losing style, which we will introduce in detail below.

　　Compared with the drastic changes in the front face, the tail of the new car is still slightly low-key. The tail shape of the new car is relatively regular, with a brand-new taillight design, which is more slender, and the LED light strip is integrated inside, which echoes with the headlight group, and the lighting effect is very brilliant. At the same time, in order to highlight the sporty design, the duck tail design of the current model continues to be preserved on the new Regal, and the exhaust layout of the two sides is also derived from the current model, but it is understood that it will only be reflected in the high-profile models.

◆ The interior will adopt a brand-new design, and the sense of luxury will be significantly improved compared with the current models.

"The picture shows the overseas version of the new Regal interior"

　　As the domestic brand-new Regal unveiled at the Shanghai Auto Show only showed its appearance and did not announce its interior, we will refer to overseas models to take you to know about it. Referring to the overseas version of the new Regal, the interior design of the new car has also undergone tremendous changes compared with the current model. The overall layout of the center console is more layered, with an LCD screen on the top and functional buttons and control knobs on the bottom. At the same time, a large number of wooden decorative plates are used around the shift lever, which improves the interior texture to a certain extent and is more luxurious than the current model.

◆ The configuration in the car is further enriched.

"The picture is the overseas version of the new Regal interior official map"

　　In terms of configuration, it is understood that the new car will be equipped with a 7-inch (optional 8-inch with navigation) color LCD screen as standard, and support the very popular Apple CarPlay and Android Auto interconnection functions, which has improved the update of the in-vehicle entertainment system. At the same time, the new car also changed into a brand-new three-spoke, which further optimized the display of the dashboard and improved the sports atmosphere of the whole car. In addition, it is understood that the new Regal will also be equipped with GM’s latest driver assistance system, including many technologies such as pedestrian active safety, further improving the safety of vehicle driving, and will also provide five years of free use of services. Overall, the new Regal has made great progress in interior and configuration compared with the current models, and its competitiveness has been greatly improved.

◆ The rear head space is not ideal, and the rear leg space is excellent.

"The picture shows the new space experience of Insua"

　　In terms of space experience, referring to the brand-new Insua of its prototype, the front row space of the experiencer with a height of 175mm is acceptable, while the back row head space of the experiencer is relatively cramped due to the decrease of the body height, but thanks to the increase of wheelbase and body length, the back row leg space of the experiencer performs well. Compared with the current model, the head space of the new car has not changed much, while the leg space performance has improved obviously.

◆ It is worth looking forward to providing three new power systems to match the 9-speed automatic transmission.

　　Judging from the previous application information, the new domestic Regal provides three displacement power options, namely 1.5T/2.0T turbocharged engine and 1.8L system. Among them, the maximum power of the 1.5T engine is 163 HP, and the maximum power of the brand-new 2.0T engine is 254 HP. The hybrid model shares the power system with the hybrid version, which consists of a 1.8L naturally aspirated engine and an electric motor. The maximum power of the engine is 123 horsepower. In terms of transmission, ordinary models will match GM’s latest 9-speed, while hybrid models will match the E- gearbox.

　　From the point of view of power system, the powertrain of the new Regal is more exciting than the current models. It provides a 1.5T small-displacement engine in line with the times, and the maximum power of the 2.0T model has been improved, which strengthens the market competitiveness of the 2.0T model. At the same time, the introduction of a 1.8L hybrid model instead of a 2.0L model for the first time is also expected to further optimize the problem of high fuel consumption, which consumers have complained a lot about before.

"Screenshot of some word-of-mouth of the current Regal owners"

　　In addition, the new 9-speed automatic gearbox replacing the current 6-speed automatic manual transmission is also a highlight of the new car. As we all know, the current 6-speed automatic manual transmission of Regal has always been a point that everyone spits, and the gearbox that "will think about life" is often used by everyone to ridicule. However, according to the feedback from our related colleagues after the test drive of the brand-new Insua, the 9-speed automatic gearbox matched with the brand-new Insua has a good shift performance, which is much smarter than the previous 6-speed automatic manual transmission, and the improvement is obvious, so we are also looking forward to the performance of the brand-new domestic Regal which is also equipped with the brand-new 9-speed automatic transmission.

　　All in all, the product competitiveness of the new Regal has indeed improved significantly compared with the current models. The first thing that bears the brunt is that it is expected to replace the new 9-speed gearbox, which is expected to solve the biggest criticism of the current models. Secondly, the extended wheelbase and body length have also improved the problem of insufficient leg space of the current models. In addition, the brand-new appearance, interior design, richer configuration and upgraded power system are equally tempting, which can be said to be full of SAIC-GM-Buick’s goal of returning to the glory of Shuangjun. Then, in the highly competitive joint venture brand medium-sized car market, can the brand-new Regal, which will be listed soon, once again stand out from the encirclement? What kind of market position will it have after listing? Let’s look down.
