by The cost of the novelty reaches 700,000 dollars, which is a record cost in the history of China’s automotive industry (for serial cars). We are talking about the new generation luxury car Hongqi L5 (also known as the “limousine” of the party elite), which is designed in the retro style of the original Hongqi CA72 from 1958.
The latest generation of the giant sedan has a completely new body, larger grille, and modified bumpers and optics. The interior features three screens combined into a single unit. For future drivers who do not favor touch controls, physical buttons have been retained. The two-spoke multifunction steering wheel is also designed in retro style but has received control buttons.
The technical specifications of the second generation Hongqi L5 have not been disclosed yet, but it is known that the car will receive the latest turbocharged V8 engine.
Once again, it should be emphasized, the Hongqi L5 is considered the most expensive car in the history of China, priced at about 730,000 dollars.
