Chinese-made Taycan? - Salon "Mechanical Warfare Race" is coming soon!

Latest Official Teaser of Salon’s First Model “Mechanic Dragon”

The latest official teaser of Salon’s first model car has been released, and the car has been officially named “Mechanic Dragon”. This time, Great Wall Motors not only grabbed the headlines in its naming strategy but also in the car’s styling, which is very “hardcore”.

Salon's Mechanic Dragon

Since Salon released the first teaser image, its popularity has been continuously high. As a mid-large size coupe, the “Mechanic Dragon” is priced at around 400,000 RMB. Combined with the overhead angle teaser image released earlier and this side-angle teaser image, it can be seen that the front face design of the “Mechanic Dragon” is very sharp, creating a strong “mechanical style” with various sharp lines.

This rugged design is also extended to the body. There are almost no curved lines on the body, and the car features 20-inch black five-spoke wheels and even a wide-body kit! It is not yet certain whether the original wide-body kit will be available for all versions of the “Mechanic Dragon”. However, as can be seen from the teaser image, the straight-lined and rugged body complemented with the exposed wide-body rivets is truly in line with the mechanical style.

In terms of performance, the “Mechanic Dragon” uses electric four-wheel drive with a maximum power of 400 kW and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.7 seconds. The vehicle will use the Big Yu battery technology with a battery capacity of 115 kWh, and the CLTC standard range will reach 802 km.

In terms of hardware, the “Mechanic Dragon” is equipped with four LiDARs and will achieve “the world’s only 360-degree full-view laser coverage.” The new car is also equipped with the Huawei’s “Dual MDC” intelligent driving computing platform.

This teaser image also features the sentence, “A warm and cool mecha-tech brand.” Salon’s exterior design can be said to be very cool, but is the word “warm” in the slogan implying its interior design? The answer will be revealed tomorrow!
