Multiple waistlines along the side of the new car create rich light-and-shadow effects, paired with a dense-spoke wheel design, while the chrome trim at the bottom of the side windows adds a refined touch. At the rear, it is equipped with a continuous taillight assembly, and the upturned ducktail spoiler adds a sporty flavor. The new car's length, width, and height are 4767/1828/1498 mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2755 mm.

Dada Commentary: The first-generation Roewe i6 was born in 2016 and was hailed as the world's first mass-produced internet family sedan. In 2017, 1.5T and 1.0T three-cylinder versions were added, and in 2019 the PLUS version went on sale, replacing the 1.0T three-cylinder model with a 1.6L naturally aspirated powertrain. The all-new Roewe i6 is a completely redesigned model, positioned as an A+ segment fuel family sedan, focusing on large space, low fuel consumption, and high intelligence, and is expected to become a volume-driving model in the family. The all-new Roewe i6's front face is luxurious and imposing, while the side and rear styling is fashionable and sporty. The 1.5L all-aluminum engine is more fuel-efficient than the older 1.6L engine, and the chassis is tuned by Mira in the UK, balancing comfort and handling.
