As a replacement model, the change of the new generation GS5′ s styling can be described as a brand-new design style. The new generation GS5 does not adopt a square front face design like GS7/GS8, but adopts a smooth and dynamic new design style. Three LED light sources are integrated into the willow-shaped headlight group, which is decorated with chrome plating and has a unique styling. The front grille continues Chuanqi’s Lingyun Wing 3.0 family design, and the interior is complemented by horizontal chrome trim, creating an atmospheric style.

The new GS5 waistline smoothly transitions from the headlights to the rear of the car, and the full side lines update the car’s certain muscle sense and appear very natural at the same time. The side lines of the double waistline are more layered. The D-pillar of the new car still adopts the popular suspended roof design. Body size, length, width and height are 4695/1885/1700 mm (with luggage rack 1726), and the wheelbase is 2710mm. In addition, the new car has three different specifications of tires: 225/65 R17, 235/55 R18 and 235/50 R19.

At the rear of the car, the new GS5 also adopts a through taillight group design, and the top is outlined with chrome trim. The round and generous tail looks very solid. At the bottom, the new car also provides a silver lower guard and two chrome-plated exhaust decorations on both sides.

In terms of interior, the new car adopts a large-size suspended central control screen, and the screen is designed under the air outlet of the central air conditioner, which is very thin and full of technology. Together with the full LCD instrument panel, the new GS5 interior can meet the needs of the younger generation of consumers with increasing demand for smart digital. The car is equipped with a three-spoke multi-function steering wheel, one-button start, electronic handbrake, full LCD instrument panel, LED fog lights, panoramic sunroof, automatic start and stop, ramp assist, parking radar, rear air conditioning air outlet and other configurations.

In terms of power, the new GS5 will be equipped with two 1.5T engines, 4A15M1 and 4A15J1. The 4A15M1 engine is assembled in Chuanqi GS4 and other models. The maximum power of this 1.5T engine can reach 112kW(152PS) and the peak torque is 235N·m;; The maximum power of the 1.5T engine code 4A15J1 is 124kW(169PS). In terms of transmission, the new car is matched with Aisin’s third-generation 6AT gearbox.

Previously, Chuanqi GS4 has been greatly recognized in the market, and the launch of a brand-new GS5 with higher positioning has further enriched consumers’ choices. The new car will compete head-on with MG HS, Roewe RX5, Geely Bo Yue, Changan CS75 and other joint venture SUV models such as Volkswagen Tiguan, Buick Angkewei, Toyota RAV4 and Honda CRV. The competition in the domestic medium-sized SUV market will be more intense in the future.
The new GS5 has achieved good results in terms of face value and product strength, and the configuration level is also in a quite good position in the same class. With such a cost performance, I believe there will be a good sales performance. As the only China brand car company participating in the 2018 Paris Motor Show, GAC Chuanqi is full of confidence in the new GS5, which dares to launch a new car on the international stage. The new GS5 also has good product strength. Although the Sino-US trade war has affected GAC Chuanqi’s plan to enter the American market, Chuanqi’s new GS5 still has the strength to go global.
