Roewe i6

The Roewe i6, codename IP31, was launched on the 2016 Guangzhou Auto Show in China as Roewe's new C segment sedan, replacing the aging Roewe 550, and sharing the platform with the second generation MG 6 sedan. It is the first sedan model using the all new "Lv Dong" design philosophy, which means the fusion of oriental aesthetic culture and western design discipline. The i6 is available with two engines: a 1.0 litre three cylinder producing 125 hp, and the 1.5 turbo with 170 hp.[1]

Roewe ei6

The Roewe ei6, codename IP34, is the PHEV variant of the Roewe i6, and was also launched on the 2016 Guangzhou Auto Show in China. Same as the Roewe RX5 and eRX5, the main styling difference would be the grilles. The petrol version i6 would have a slightly smaller grille while the hybrid ei6 would have a relatively larger one. The ei6 has 228 hp in total, using the 1.0 with an extra 82 hp electric motor.[2]
