The Roewe Jiayue 07 will debut on August 13. Positioned as a mid-to-large SUV targeting the 150,000-200,000 yuan segment, it uses a range-extended powertrain. The exterior features a 2.24-meter connected light bar, roof-mounted LiDAR, and Momenta R5 advanced driver assistance. Dimensions measure 4900/1910/1745mm with a 2,908mm wheelbase, offering six color options. The powertrain pairs a 1.5L range extender (72kW) with a 162kW motor, matched with 32.6kWh or 44.2kWh batteries delivering 180-240km WLTP pure electric range (320km max CLTC). It also features the Doubao large model 2.0 series.

Spy shots of the facelifted Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W206 long wheelbase variant) have emerged from China. The front end features a completely redesigned oversized grille with a black surround lifted from the W214 E-Class and EQ series, paired with star-pattern LED headlights. The rear end gets two-piece taillights with additional star elements. Inside, the 12.3-inch freestanding instrument display and 11.9-inch portrait touchscreen are retained. Engine options are expected to include the M264 1.5L and 2.0L turbo fours, OM654 2.0L turbodiesel, and PHEVs like the C350e, C300de and C400e. A straight-six C53 may replace the four-cylinder C43 and C63 PHEV variants. The facelifted C-Class will compete against the next-generation BMW 3 Series (G50).

The Daihatsu Ayla Modern Vintage debuted at GIIAS 2026 in Jakarta as a styling exercise, featuring a pink and off-white dual-tone theme with a higher clamshell bonnet. The exterior embraces retro aesthetics with block-lettered "DAIHATSU" branding, an egg-crate grille, and simple wheel covers, while the head and tail lamps incorporate modern LED internals in a D-shaped design. The bright beige-heavy interior includes retro seat covers with classic Daihatsu script, a vintage-style steering wheel, and clean air-conditioning controls. The bodykit is intentionally understated, presenting a clean rear bumper with minimal details.

Spy shots of the facelifted Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W206) have surfaced online, with the mid-cycle refresh expected to debut next year. The exterior receives a larger hexagonal shield-shaped grille with a thick chrome border and winged chrome trim. The headlight daytime running lights have been redesigned from a downward arrow shape to a tri-star pattern positioned centrally, aligning with the updated E-Class's lighting language. The taillights mirror this tri-star design. As a mid-cycle update, powertrain options are expected to remain unchanged.

The new Maserati Grecale has launched with three models priced from 578,800 to 1,016,800 yuan. The global limited edition Night Blue variant of 26 units debuted simultaneously, featuring exclusive Night Blue metallic paint, custom matte gold trident badges, hand-embroidered interior, and a Sonus faber premium audio system. The cabin offers a 12.3-inch instrument cluster, 12.3-inch central screen, and 8.8-inch control panel with triple-screen connectivity. Powertrain options include a 2.0L turbo mild-hybrid (300/330 PS) and a 3.0L twin-turbo V6 (530 PS), all paired with AWD. Eleven exterior colors are available.

The Geely Xingyue L, launched in 2021, remains Geely's best-selling model with 15,220 units sold in June alone. Spy shots of the new model (internal code KX21) have emerged. The exterior retains the vertical multi-bar front grille with redesigned, more slender headlamps and a roof-mounted LiDAR (not installed on the test vehicle). It wears 235/50 R20 wheels with the Geely China Star logo. The interior is expected to feature a dual-screen setup. The i-HEV hybrid system continues with a 1.5L turbo engine (120 kW) and electric motor (175 kW). The presence of both charging port and fuel cap on the test vehicle suggests a PHEV variant may also be offered.
