On April 18, 2023, at the 20th Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition, Lantu Automobile officially launched its brand-new brand upgrade. At the same time, Lantu’s first sedan model, the Chinese luxury electric sedan Lantu Zhuiguang, was officially launched at the auto show, with a price range of 3.229-4.329 million yuan. Lantu also prepared for users a limited-time equity plan with three choices: sincere zero-pressure equity, battery rental equity, and FREE refurbishment equity.
At this year’s auto show, Lantu upgraded its brand color and brand identification system, reflecting the elegance of Chinese aesthetics and natural landscape in modern industrial design.
In terms of color, Lantu drew inspiration from the Song Dynasty, and developed its own “Qing” color by interpreting Song Dynasty porcelain, poetry, architecture, and life. It also derived colors such as Daiqing and Biqing, and constructed a new color system with Qing as the main color, which is more representative of Eastern classical beauty.
In terms of logo, the new logo continues the design philosophy of “Tian Di Kunpeng” and retains the “Kunpeng spreading its wings” logo while also processing the Chinese characters “Lantu” in a combination of square and circle, with square representing ambition and circle representing the way, perfectly integrating the two together.
Lantu has created the world’s first ink and wash exhibition stand, featuring a unique “moon inkstone” display stand and lush pine trees as a welcoming landscape. In addition, Lantu collaborated with China’s first hyperrealistic virtual KOL, Ling_Ling, at this year’s auto show, demonstrating cultural confidence and innovative fusion of Chinese classical culture and modern technology.
At the same time, Lantu’s first sedan model, the Lantu Zhuiguang, was officially launched. The standard version (82 kWh/580 km) is priced at 322,900 yuan, the flagship version (82 kWh/580 km) is priced at 352,900 yuan, and the long-endurance flagship version (109 kWh/730 km) is priced at 432,900 yuan.
In terms of its appearance, Lantu Zhuiguang adopts organic curves, giving the entire car a natural and beautiful body line. The interior colors are based on the twelve-hour color system, reflecting the different colors of light in different hours of the day on the body and interior colors.
