Qoros 3 GT - China's first sports crossover sedan

This year's Guangzhou Auto Show will see Qoros launching the fifth member of the Qoros family – Qoros 3 GT. As the first sports crossover sedan on the Chinese market, Qoros 3 GT features a distinctive elevated chassis design, first-class sport performance as well as an expressive sedan design. It creates a completely new segment offering a stylish option for consumers who prefer both the driving comfort of a sedan and the trafficability of an SUV.

Lorenz Glaab, VP, Sales and Marketing of Qoros, said, "Qoros is all about spearheading new segments, about shaping the transformation of the automotive industry. That's why we are particularly proud to also spearhead this newly created segment of sport crossover sedan in order to bring about exciting driving experience to our customers."

Qoros embraces cutting-edge QamFree technology

Likewise, the Qoros prototype car featuring the world's first drivable QamFree engine is bound to be an eye-catcher at the Guangzhou Auto Show. A significant technological innovation, the QamFree engine revolutionizes the traditional internal-combustion engine (ICE) with its compact size, delivering a higher level of efficiency and performance, and enhancing overall driving experience. Since its debut at the Beijing Auto Show in April earlier this year, the QamFree technology has drawn widespread attention from potential customers and industry players. Now, a half year later, the Qoros 3 hatch prototype car equipped with a runnable QamFree engine will undertake vigorous road testing. The innovative engine technology is expected to significantly enhance the performance of the ICE product line-up of Qoros both currently and in the future.

High performance Qoros 3 Q-LECTRIQ

Benchmarking with leading global EV standards, the Qoros 3 Q-LECTRIQ EV concept will also be exhibited at the Qoros booth, equipped with striking performance parameters. Featuring its extraordinary 350km driving range, 7 seconds for 0-100kph, top speed of 162km and 80% fast charging within one hour, the Q-LECTRIQ EV concept daringly expresses Qoros' innovative spirit and insight into future mobility solutions. With the ambitious progress of Qoros' new energy strategy, 2017 will see the the  first Q-LECTRIQ EV production model off line. This innovation hopes to not only drive the Qoros' vision for NEV development, but also provide its green-conscious customers more accessible products in the future.

The Qoros booth is set to allure spectators and endorse the company's new brand claim — New Premium. China's millenials are not a conventional generation, but rather they increasingly desire an inspirational customer experience brought about by cutting edge technology and unique product design. Qoros is actively tapping into this New Premium consumer megatrend and aligning its world-class quality standards, expressive product design and innovative customer experience to drive the brand into the future.
