Our pickup truck is the oldest model, which was born in 1996, earlier than SUV (the development of SUV Saifu began in 2001). It was Wei Jianjun who visited the United States and saw pickup trucks everywhere, so every household drove pickup trucks, so he made up his mind to make pickup trucks.
The first pickup truck was called Deere, which was not called "cannon" at first. At that time, Baoding had a pickup truck called Tian Ye, which had been made for four years, but it was not made. However, it is still very powerful. After Deer pickup truck was made, it reached an annual output of 13,200 as soon as it went on the market, basically dividing up the market of field pickup trucks, and the field pickup trucks disappeared.
What’s so powerful about this Deer pickup? It is the front and rear bridge of Hilux, hilux. This is a very classic and famous pickup truck in the whole off-road circle, with a displacement of 4.0 liters. How powerful is this pickup truck?
Many off-road images of cruel desert operations in the Middle East War confirmed the strength of its chassis, which was independent suspension of the front double wishbone and dependent suspension of the rear leaf spring. And part-time 4wd+rear differential lock. Especially durable, low torque and super torque. Take some bad roads and get out of trouble quite well. Later, Top gear did a program to violently test hilux, put it in seawater, then hit it with a big hammer, set fire to the roof and so on. Finally, it could open the car door and start the engine and drive away.
It can be said that the reputation of "not bad to drive" also has the credit of this car.
Later, another very famous off-road vehicle Fortuner Crossover was a hard-core SUV based on this chassis. Similarly, in addition to our domestic pickup trucks, the Middle East is now Hilux, hilux.
Having said that, that is to say, our pickup truck was first learned. OK。 Then the birth marks the end of this era of reverse imitation. At the 2019 Shanghai Auto Show, the name ""was released. It is said that this name also comes from the internal culture. Because we all know that it is militarized management, and we admire sword spirit very much.
When this brand-new platform for P71 pickup truck is independently developed by ourselves, it is a pickup truck platform that is fully developed. When we want to give a name to the new car, everyone thinks of "cannon". Pickups are now mainly divided into three series.
First of all, the low-end is the original Fengjun series, which is basically around 70,000 to 80,000. Then there is a relatively high-end fashion series, 100,000-140,000. There are passenger version, commercial version, off-road version, artillery and locomotive version. The passenger version and the commercial version are divided into two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive, and the diesel version is slightly more expensive than gasoline and diesel. There is also a tea king edition, which is equivalent to the highest diesel match. The size is also a little bigger. Off-road version is the concentrated version of all cutting-edge off-road technologies, and it is also the most bright version. It is divided into 4-5 versions according to off-road degree and gasoline and diesel. The artillery version is a cross-country toy version like the tank 300, and it mainly embodies individual play like the locomotive version.
In addition, there is a series of King Kong cannons, which is a more fashionable version based on the original Fengjun series, and the price is similar. Packed with a more beautiful exterior interior.
