New Compact Cars Get Off Production Line in Tianjin
The first batch of the new type of Xiali compact cars, manufactured in the north China's coastal city of Tianjin by China's Tianjin Auto Group and Japan's Toyota, rolled off the production line Thursday.
It takes two years for the new generation of Xiali compact cars to complete the process from the design and manufacturing.
According to the developers, the new cars will have the most advanced technology from Toyota and will have a small size, but a lot of room inside. The new car will have a small volume of exhaust, but will have a lot of horsepower and have low oil consumption.
The sale price of the car is expected to be 132,000 yuan (US$15,900).
