Chapter 024: Model Classification

Hearing Zhao Hong's question, Fang Yuan smiled, the customer did not ask the details of the model, but asked the price first, which completely confirmed the information provided by the car dealer system, indicating that the main factor in Zhao Hong's car selection was that there was not much money.

But Liu Liang wanted to break his brain, and he couldn't recall the detailed information, so he asked the customer to wait for him with a bitter face, and hurriedly ran back to the VIP room to find the basic parameter information compiled by the car dealership.

After wasting four or five minutes, Liu Liang finally came back, stood beside the customer in a panic and looked down at the thick information in his hand, and after looking for a long time, he didn't find this 2010 BMW 520LI.

Seeing Liu Liang's hurried appearance, Fang Yuan, who had the basic parameter information in his mind, secretly kicked his heel and reminded in a low voice: "Page 57, 99,600." ”

"99,600, 99,600. Liu Liang raised his sweaty head, didn't bother to turn to page 57, and shouted the price out first in a hurry.

"99,600?" Zhao Hong heard the price, and his expression did not change in the slightest, but he continued to ask, "How is the condition of the car?"

"How is the condition of the car?" Liu Liang was already dizzy with nervousness, his hands trembled and flipped through the basic parameter information, and finally found the fifty-seventh page, and read it out anxiously, "BMW 5 Series 2010 520Li luxury, mileage of 133,000 kilometers, licensed in September 2010, four-door five-seat sedan, the new car price of the year was 459,800 including tax, the on-site car dealership was listed 99,600, front and rear drive, tire pressure monitoring function, seat belt is not fastened reminder, ABS anti-lock, front and rear parking radar...... ”

Liu Liang was verbose, but it was not the car condition that Zhao Hong cared about at all, and he interrupted Liu Liang's introduction with an unhappy face: "I asked you how the car is doing, not for you to read the configuration." ”

Questioned by the customer, Liu Liang was confused, how could there be a car condition introduction on the basic parameter information in his hand? He was not familiar with this BMW 5 Series, but he couldn't answer when he opened his mouth.

"What are you doing in a daze? Tell the customer. Fang Yuan gently patted Liu Liang's shoulder, telling him not to be in a daze.

I haven't paid attention to this BMW 5 Series, how can I introduce it? Liu Liang was in a hurry, the sweat in his head was running down his cheeks, and finally he asked Fang Yuan for help with a sad face: "I really don't know the condition of this BMW 5 Series, can you help me introduce it?"

"You ......" Fang Yuan looked at Liu Liang's embarrassment, and complained to him in his heart, Manager Sun usually asks us to pay more attention to the car condition, you are always lazy and slippery, and now you have dropped the chain, right?

Complaining is complaining, Fang Yuan values family affection and friendship, and he will still help Liu Liang, he walked to Zhao Hong, first introduced himself, and showed that he was Liu Liang's colleague.

Zhao Hong nodded slightly and greeted Fang Yuan, agreeing to Fang Yuan's help.

And Fang Yuan unexpectedly didn't say what Zhao Hong cared about, and deliberately asked the customer: "I just heard from you, you want a high-grade model?"

"That's right. Zhao Hong nodded at Fang Yuan and admitted, but he still kept silent about his car purchase budget and use.

"In our Huaxia, high-grade models, suitable for business reception, generally need C-class cars or above, only to have a row. Of course, Fang Yuan knew that Zhao Hong wanted to buy a car to attend a class reunion and use it for business receptions in the future, so he didn't rush to introduce the condition of the car, but was ready to leave him first and let him accept this BMW 5 Series.

"Oh, C-class cars, are there B-class cars, D-class cars, and how are they divided?" The topic provoked by Fang Yuan successfully aroused Zhao Hong's interest, showing a curious look, and asked a series of questions, wanting Fang Yuan to explain in detail.

I don't know the B-class, the C-class? Fang Yuan patiently explained to Zhao Hong that cars, like movies, are graded.

At present, the car class is divided into A00 classes with a wheelbase between 2 meters and 2.3 meters.

The A0 class has a wheelbase between 2.3 and 2.5 meters.

a, the wheelbase is between 2.5 meters and 2.7 meters. (A plus 'level' is a sensitive word, only a is used instead.) ）

The B-class has a wheelbase of about 2.7 to 2.9 meters.

Class C with a wheelbase of about 2.8 to 3 meters.

D-class, wheelbase more than 3 meters.

For example, Mr. Ma's 6.0T Maybach is worth tens of millions, with a wheelbase of more than three meters and a car length of more than six meters.

These six grades are a grading method for automobiles derived from the Hans Volkswagen.

This set of standards is based on wheelbase, weight, displacement and other parameters, is a set of conventional consensus, but not the most authoritative standard, but is just a set of reference data developed by Volkswagen when it first formulated its platform strategy, and was later widely adopted by other OEMs.

The classification standard for cars in Hansguo is that A00 is miniature, A0 is small, A is compact, B-class is medium-sized, C-class is medium-large, and D-class cars refer to large.

The lower the alphabetical order, the longer the wheelbase, the larger the displacement and the heavier the body, and the more luxurious the passenger car is.

Now with the increase of models, as well as the price, style, and configuration options are becoming more and more diversified, there are more and more edge crosses of A, B, and C cars.

For example, in order to enhance the competitiveness of some OEMs, some models may have wheelbases in the A-class car range, and the displacement is very large, and the price is almost the same as that of B-class cars.

Mercedes-Benz's famous A45AMG, with a length of only 4,367 mm, a width of 1,780 mm, a height of 1,417 mm, and a wheelbase of 2,699 mm, is a proper A-class compact hatchback.

However, the Mercedes A45AMG has the strongest 2.0T, V12 engine, the same engine as the supercar Pagani Zonda.

381 hp of scrambling power, 4.2 seconds of violent acceleration, 320 on the back of the table is exciting, the price of up to 600,000 that year, known as the fastest small steel cannon on the surface, there is no one.

Beat Scirocco R, Civic, 86, Subaru STI, Fit, Golf R, Audi S3 these scum.

"Oh, I see. Zhao Hong nodded, and asked again, "Why do you recommend this BMW to me?"

"I'll explain it to you in detail. Looking at Zhao Hong's confused eyes, he didn't mention leaving at all, Fang Yuan smiled slightly, and he successfully left the customer.

Fang Yuan told hello that the body length of the mini car is between 4,200 mm and 4,600 mm, and the body length of the small car is about 4,400 mm.

They have less legroom in the back seat, and if an adult sits in the back seat, their knees are usually resting on the back of the seat in front of them, and their legs and feet cannot be extended, giving people a feeling of oppression and aggrieved sitting in the car.

Honda Fit, Toyota Vios, Ford Fiesta, such as the space is small, the configuration is low to home, and it is impossible to meet the requirements of business reception.

"Yes, yes. Zhao Hong nodded heavily, thinking that what Fang Yuan said was reasonable, whether it was to go to a class reunion or to receive customers in the future, it was very faceless to drive such a car.

Mid-size cars typically have a body length of between 4,500 mm and 4,900 mm, and an engine displacement of between 1.8 and 2.4 liters.

Models in this class are usually used both for home and business, such as: Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, Volkswagen Magotan and Mazda 6 Ruiyi, etc.

However, Fang Yuan told Zhao Hong that this level of models is fuel-efficient and durable, cheap in maintenance, as the company's commuter car, it is okay to go out to do errands, and it is okay to send ordinary customers to welcome, in case there is a major occasion, it is almost meaningless to entertain distinguished customers, it seems that the strength of their company is insufficient, the sincerity is not enough, and it is not up to grade.

"Well, I also think that there are more private cars like Accord, Camry, and Magotan like that. Zhao Hong stared at Fang Yuan in surprise, feeling that this young man was very professional, and what he said was very reliable.

"If you want to show your strength and decorate the company's façade, it's best to do it in one step," Fang Yuan began to pull on the C-class car.

The mid-to-large C-segment has a body length of between 4,800 mm and 5,000 mm, and an engine displacement of more than 2.4 liters.

This level of models is usually the mainstream model of commercial vehicles, high-end atmosphere and grade, low-key luxury has connotation, such as: Audi A6, BMW 5 Series, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, Volvo S80, Toyota Crown, etc.

Most of the D-class luxury passenger cars have a grand appearance, extremely spacious interior, and very powerful engines, with a wheelbase of more than 3 meters.

With a body length of more than 5,000 mm and an engine displacement of more than 3.0L, the more typical luxury cars are the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Maybach, Rolls-Royce Phantom, etc.

Compared with D-class cars and C-class cars, D-class is more luxurious, more comfortable, and more face-saving, but the price is also more expensive.

Seeing Zhao Hong nodding incessantly, Fang Yuan asked unexpectedly, "You seem to be only in your twenties, right?"

"Twenty-seven. Although Zhao Hong understood what Fang Yuan was doing when he asked about his age, he still told the truth.

"I started my own business and became my boss in my twenties. Fang Yuan said with admiration, Zhao Hong is so young, he has not yet honed the mature and stable temperament of a middle-aged man.

If you drive a Mercedes-Benz or Audi luxury car, there is a high chance that people will mistake it for a driver, or steal your father's car to play.

is obviously a car that he bought with his own money and strength, but he was treated as a driver, or a bear child, which is even more wronged than Dou E.

BMW is different, BMW focuses on handling, whether it is the appearance or the positioning in people's hearts, it is very suitable for young people to drive.

Even at Zhao Hong's age, driving a high-end BMW, it will not look abrupt, it will not be mistaken for a driver, and it will not be misunderstood for driving his father's car to play.

"That makes sense. Fang Yuan's style judgment of BMW, Audi, and Mercedes-Benz models, not only the customer Zhao Hong agreed very much, but even Liu Liang, who was standing nearby and listening, nodded again and again, thinking that what Fang Yuan said was very in line with the actual situation.

"According to the classification of the models I just mentioned, the high-end grade you ask for is at least the five-series level, otherwise buying a BMW one-series, or three-series, will not be able to meet the high-grade demand, and it will be a waste of money. After speaking, Fang Yuan pointed to the BMW 520LI in the distance, "I think this car is very suitable for you." ”

After Fang Yuan's words, Zhao Hong looked in the direction indicated by Fang Yuan again.

This time, he didn't have the indifference and indifference just now, his eyes instantly widened, his eyes became hot like fire, his body trembled slightly, and he walked over quickly.

"Fang Yuan, you are really a god. The customer left quickly, and Liu Liang gave Fang Yuan a thumbs up, his face full of admiration.

"Hurry over. Fang Yuan grabbed Liu Liang and followed.
