Car News Broadcast: The last Lincoln Continental rolls off the production line, the new Subaru BRZ will be released soon

SUV sales have soared, but Lincoln has given up on sedans. Judging from Lincoln's just announced sales results, domestic sales in October exceeded 7,300 units, a year-on-year increase of 103. Sales have increased year-on-year for six consecutive months. Among them, the Lincoln Adventurer has sold more than 4,300 units, and it has undoubtedly become the mainstay. Everything has its own give and take. Just recently, the last Lincoln Continental rolled off the production line at Ford's Flat Rock plant. It will become Lincoln's last Lincoln sedan. As a legendary flagship sedan, this generation of Lincoln Continental only lasted four years from its launch in 2016 to its discontinuation, which is indeed a pity. In fact, as early as two years ago, the Ford Group had planned to abandon most of its sedan products and focus its main resources on pickup trucks, SUVs and commercial products that have greater profits and sales. Many sedans, such as the Fiesta, Mondeo, and Taurus, have actually been discontinued in the U.S. market, and the remaining ones are basically SUVs, crossovers, and pickup trucks. Mitsubishi probably did the same thing back then, but it didn't regain its former status in the SUV field. Use a turbine engine? The new Subaru BRZ is about to be released. While the United States is busy with the election, Subaru North America officially released the information of the new BRZ, announcing that the new generation model will be released on November 18th. It also revealed more details about the entire BRZ series, including the one-third front end of the new generation model. Through the picture, you can see the C-shaped daytime running lights similar to the current model, but the headlight area is larger and looks more energetic. There is a line on the hood that extends towards the front of the car, revealing a hint of muscle. In addition, the air guide slots on the front fenders are also revealed. This size is obviously larger than in this spy photo, which can further enhance heat dissipation efficiency. In fact, this car has been exhibited at Subaru's California event before. Judging from the side profile, the front of the car is longer than the current model, and the rear of the car also has much smoother lines. It looks quite similar to the Lexus RC. . As for power, it is still a mystery. The most popular one is equipped with the FA24 2.4-liter horizontally opposed 4-cylinder self-priming engine upgraded from the FA20, which can output 220 horsepower/240 Nm and is matched with an Aisin 6-speed manual or automatic gearbox. But there are also recent rumors that it will be equipped with a turbocharged engine. Just wait for the world premiere on November 18 to find out what is inside. The sale of pure fuel vehicles will be stopped in 2025, and Nissan will launch more new energy products. Although China currently gives preferential treatment to new energy vehicles, among Toyota, Nissan and Nissan brands, Nissan does not seem to be too "careful", at least in the market. So far, there is no hybrid or pure electric model that can be driven. However, Nissan has already planned to officially stop selling pure fuel vehicles in 2025. In fact, in September, Nissan introduced the latest e-Power hybrid system in China, and it will be the first to be applied to the Sylphy, which is currently responsible for sales, and later models such as Teana and X-Trail will also be equipped with this hybrid system. It depends on whether the market price can compete with the products of Toyota and Honda. In addition, in terms of pure electric models, it is unrealistic to rely solely on the current "oil-to-electricity" classic Sylphy. The Ariya, its first pure electric SUV released earlier, will also be produced in China within two years. Ariya has single motor and dual motor versions. The single motor has a maximum power of 218 horsepower and a peak torque of 300 Nm; the dual motor has a maximum power of 389 horsepower and a peak torque of 600 Nm. Cow rice. The new car will provide battery packs with 87kWh and 63kWh capacities, and the official claims that its driving range can reach 483km.
