Since the beginning of this year, the province’s public security organs have severely cracked down on telecommunication network fraud crimes, and made every effort to recover the economic losses of the people with the greatest strength, the fastest speed and the best measures. At present, more than 18,000 criminal suspects have been arrested, 3.096 billion yuan of fraudulent funds have been frozen, and more than 230 million yuan of defrauded funds have been returned, resolutely guarding the "money bag" of the people.

In recent years, telecommunication network fraud has become the fastest-growing criminal offence, which seriously affects people’s sense of acquisition, happiness and security. The "Joint Disciplinary Measures for Telecommunication Network Fraud and Related Crimes" (hereinafter referred to as "Disciplinary Measures") jointly issued by the Ministry of Public Security and other four departments has been officially implemented this month.

According to the relevant person in charge of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Provincial Public Security Department, from the anti-fraud practice in recent years, the "two cards" illegal and criminal acts involving telephone cards and bank cards are the areas where telecommunication network fraud occurs frequently. The implementation of the "Disciplinary Measures" should not only punish those who engage in telecommunication network fraud crimes and related crimes, but also punish those who illegally buy, sell, rent, lend telephone cards, bank cards, online accounts, internet accounts, payment accounts, etc., but do not constitute a criminal offence. This will once again sound the alarm for illegal lending and trading of "two cards", increase their illegal costs, and increase their shock.

In view of the severe crime situation of "two cards" in recent years, Liaoning public security has carried out a series of rectification actions, and successively launched three "flurry actions" to squeeze the crime space involving "two cards" and put the people involved in "two cards" into the blacklist of untrustworthy subjects for punishment; Highlight the listing of regions and industries involved, and compact the main responsibilities of banks and operators and the regulatory responsibilities of competent departments. At the same time, we set up special classes for "police communication", "police banking" and "police letter" to comprehensively improve the governance efficiency, and jointly shut down "zombie cards" and closed "silent cards" for 37 state-owned banks and commercial banks with Shenyang Public Security Bureau; Relying on the implementation of the card opening code system by the Provincial Communications Administration, the risk of newly opened mobile phone cards involved was greatly reduced, and the number of newly opened mobile phone cards involved in the province decreased by 59.46% year-on-year, with remarkable results.

In order to strictly implement the relevant provisions of the Disciplinary Measures, the province’s public security organs will establish and improve an all-round and multi-dimensional three-dimensional disciplinary system, continuously strengthen the source management and comprehensive management, actively communicate and coordinate with relevant departments such as the Liaoning Branch of the People’s Bank of China and the Provincial Administration Bureau, and further curb telecommunication network fraud and related illegal and criminal activities. At the same time, they will deploy criminal investigation and anti-fraud departments in various cities in the province to effectively promote the publicity and education activities of law popularization, guide the masses to raise their legal awareness, and build a "firewall" for anti-fraud security in the province.

The Provincial Public Security Department reminds the broad masses of the people to raise their awareness of prevention, not to sell, rent or lend their bank accounts, payment accounts and digital RMB wallets to others, not to provide their own payment codes to others for receiving and transferring funds of unknown origin, and not to participate in illegal and criminal acts such as helping fraudsters set up call transfer equipment, promoting drainage and transferring fraudulent funds.

I remember a friend who used to drive a Jetta often told me: this car is cheap, fuel-efficient, and it’s solid to drive. It has never had any major problems, but it should be more perfect if it is bigger.

　

　

Now, his wish has come true. However, Jetta is no longer Jetta, Jetta is still Jetta.

　

one

On February 26th this year, Jetta officially declared "independence" in Wolfsburg, the German headquarters of Volkswagen, and became the third sub-brand of FAW-Volkswagen after Volkswagen and Audi.

　

Just last Saturday (June 22), FAW-Volkswagen officially announced that the last Jetta with VW logo was off the assembly line. At this point, with the Chinese people’s 28-year-old Jetta, the cumulative output of 4,418,287 vehicles officially came to an end.

　

　

Whether it is the title of "National God Car", "Evergreen Tree in the Car World" or the record of "the first 600,000 kilometers without overhaul", it has become history. Next, the Jetta brand, which hopes to further meet the car purchase needs of young users, will start a new journey in the China market.

　

　

Then the first thing to meet with consumers is the Jetta VS5, a compact entry-level SUV born on the Volkswagen MQB A1 platform.

　

two

Perhaps everyone has their own understanding and cognition of Jetta, and today’s Jetta has become a brand-new brand with a brand-new brand spirit and design language.

　

I admit, if someone told me that the VS5 is a product of any brand, I wouldn’t be surprised by its slightly exaggerated front face shape. But when the word Jetta is added in front of it, I have to look at it more. After all, it is so different from the "Jetta" we imagined.

　

　

Brand-new car logo, raised cabin lines, sharp all-LED headlights, bite-type lower grille and prominent silver fender … Of course, the most eye-catching thing is that the large-size medium net is decorated with armor-like large chrome scales, and the visual effect is still very domineering.

　

　

From the side and the rear of the car, there is still a familiar public taste. A straight waistline that runs through the whole body and a full and three-dimensional tail profile look neat and concise, and at the same time highlight the power sense of an SUV.

　

　

In addition, the chrome trim on the door handle, the 18-inch two-color aluminum alloy rim, the taillight group with Y-shaped elements and the bottom guard plate echoing the front of the car also add a lot of fashion and sportiness to the VS5, which focuses on the young market.

　

　

three

From the design style of the car, we can feel that the designer hopes to continue this vitality. Center console inclined to the driver’s side; The multifunctional steering wheel with flat bottom, what I like most is the yellow and black contrast seat with leather cloth stitching, which is very soft and supportive.

　

　

To be honest, the large area of plastic material didn’t surprise me. On the contrary, the designer skillfully used piano paint, hot stamping, leather and other elements to create a rare sense of high-level visual effect for the whole interior.

　

　

What’s more, there are ACC adaptive cruise, automatic engine start and stop, automatic headlights, intelligent rain wiper, parking radar, tire pressure monitoring, hyperbolic automatic air conditioning, front seat heating and other crowded configurations.

　

　

But what makes me laugh and cry is the 8-inch touch screen in the mouth of this staff. I don’t know if everyone, like me, questioned it when they first saw it: you told me it was only 8 inches when it was so big?

　

　

When I really started the vehicle, I realized that since I am a staff member, how can I fool people?

　

　

But in any case, the internal UI design is simple and smooth, and it also supports Apple CarPlay, Baidu CarLife and Volkswagen’s own WeLink, which is very convenient to use.

　

　

For me, who is 189cm tall, I must also give a compliment to the back space of Jetta VS5. Although it comes from the same platform as Tange, the length, width and height of Jetta VS5 (4419/1841/1616mm) are better than Tange, even hackers who are good at riding comfort. Of course, the wheelbase of 2630mm also contributed.

　

　

wanton

Starting from Yan ‘an, passing through Hukou Waterfall and finally arriving in Xi ‘an, this nearly 500-kilometer journey includes urban roads, expressways, national highways and mountain roads.

　

In the words of the staff, in choosing this test drive line, we should not only understand the spirit of Jetta brand’s perseverance and hard work, but also let everyone feel how Jetta VS5 works.

　

　

In fact, if we only look at the engine configuration in the bright side, there is no need to say more about the dynamic performance of Jetta VS5. After all, everyone is familiar with Volkswagen’s EA211 engine with a maximum power of 110kW and a peak torque of 250 N m.

　

　

However, Jetta VS5 is not static. It does not use Volkswagen’s "ancestral" DSG gearbox, but is equipped with AQ250 six-speed automatic manual transmission from Aisin. So what kind of chemical reaction will this combination bring?

　

　

After two days of test drive, the performance of this powertrain is still remarkable. First of all, the EA211 engine has maintained a high standard as always, and it can easily drive the vehicle forward in any road.

　

　

There is no problem with the shift logic of 6AT gearbox, and the upshift is very positive. During normal driving, the speed will always be stable below 2000rpm, ensuring the best fuel economy. When you want to accelerate quickly, it can also help you complete the overtaking action by quickly lowering one or two gears.

　

　

But perhaps the only thing that makes me feel different from other Volkswagen models is that the throttle adjustment of Jetta VS5 needs to be adapted well. Not that it is hard or a thief, on the contrary, the accelerator stroke of this car is very long, and the first third of the basic pedal is empty. Therefore, every time you speed up, you need to step on the accelerator as much as possible, which will give people an illusion of slow speed.

　

　

Fortunately, light steering and foot-following braking can make up for this regret. At the same time, the front McPherson rear multi-link independent suspension is mainly comfortable, and the comfort and support are still very good when passing through various speed bumps and unpaved roads.

　

　

Finally, I would like to praise the control of NVH by Jetta VS5. Except for a growl from the engine room when accelerating in the middle and high speed range, I won’t feel obvious wind noise and tire noise during the whole process, so I can sleep in the back row. Of course, sitting in the back of Jetta VS5, if the phone is dead, it seems that there is really nothing to do but sleep.

　

Write to the end:

　

Haruki Murakami defines the tiny but sure happiness and satisfaction when the little things vaguely expected in his heart happen to you as "little luck". Indeed, the beauty of "small luck" lies in its smallness, which can be found everywhere as long as we observe it attentively.

　

And Jetta VS5 gives me the feeling that it is made up of "small fortunes". When all the expectations for it are realized, even it will do better. I believe this is the biggest highlight of Jetta VS5.

Today’s automobile market is full of flowers, and there are so many choices that consumers don’t have to be confined to a certain level when buying a car. Today I’m going to talk about a hybrid car. Let’s look down with Xiaobian.

First of all, from the appearance point of view, Prado’s front face is fashionable as a whole, and the air intake grille uses a variety of styles, which makes people unforgettable. Combined with personalized headlights, it is very eye-catching. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, front fog lights, automatic opening and closing, delayed closing and so on. Coming to the side of the car, the car body size is 4925MM*1980MM*1920MM. The car adopts steady lines, and the side looks very clean and refreshing. With large-sized thick-walled tires, smooth lines run through the whole side of the car. In the rear design, the overall shape of Prado’s rear echoes the front face, and the taillight style is more fashionable and simple, coupled with the unique exhaust pipe, the shape is relatively young.

Sitting in the car, the interior looks very round and lovely, and it looks very delicate. The car’s steering wheel uses a four-position design, equipped with electric up and down+front and rear adjustment, steering wheel memory, steering wheel heating and other functions, and the shape is cool. Let’s take a look at the central control. With the 12.3-inch touch-sensitive LCD central control panel, the interior style is impressive and soft. Let Xiaobian introduce the dashboard and seats. The car is equipped with a deep dashboard and the design is softer. The car uses leather seats, which are wrapped in place and have good support and comfort.

The performance of Prado trunk space is relatively good, the opening size is in line with the positioning of its family car, and the family’s storage needs can be met. In addition, the car is equipped with fatigue warning, anti-lock braking (ABS), LED daytime running lights, brake assist (EBA/BAS, etc.), braking force distribution (EBD) main driving airbag, co-pilot airbag, knee airbag, side airbag curtain, front side airbag and other safety configurations.

Summary of the full text: SUV this model looks atmospheric, spatial performance is also good, cost-effective, I wonder if you are interested in it.

What I bring to you today is that it has many highlights. Let’s look down with Xiaobian.

First of all, from the appearance, the whole front face of the dark blue L07 looks very round and lovely, and looks very sporty. Combined with the elegant headlights, the visual effect coincides with the positioning of the whole vehicle. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, automatic opening and closing, adaptive far and near light, delayed closing and so on. Coming to the side of the car body, the size of the car body is 4875MM*1890MM*1480MM, and the car adopts eye-catching lines. The car body presents a personalized design style, and with large-sized thick-walled tires, it gives people a very soft feeling. In the design of the rear end, the rear end looks very simple, the taillights look very stable and cool.

Sitting in the car, the interior adopts a soft design, and the overall visual effect is very distinctive. The steering wheel of the car is very sharp, equipped with the functions of manual up and down+front and back adjustment, which gives people an impulse to control it. From the central control point of view, with the 15.6-inch touch-sensitive LCD central control screen, the interior style is impressive, and the overall design of the central control is remarkable. The dashboard and the seat are equally eye-catching, the dashboard design is remarkable, and the trendy design elements make people remember it at a glance.

The car is equipped with car networking, driving mode selection, Bluetooth key, NFC/RFID key, traction control (ASR/TCS, etc.), CarPlay support, HUAWEI HiCar support and other configurations, which is rich in functions and greatly improves its convenience.

After reading the above description, Xiaobian will make a summary. The car introduced today is not only eye-catching in space, but also has reached the mainstream level in various configurations, and there is nothing to be picky about driving experience and space experience.

If you pay attention to Chery, it should be no stranger to iCAR 03. After all, Chery attaches great importance to the preheating of the new brand from the very beginning to the appearance of the first model. After half a year, iCAR 03 finally announced its pre-sale price, ranging from 129,800 yuan to 185,800 yuan, with a total of 6 models.

As a pure electric SUV with off-road properties, iCRA’s product strength is actually not bad. Needless to say, the retro square box shape is very recognizable. At the same time, it is also equipped with all-aluminum girder and electrically controlled four-wheel drive, plus 540-degree panoramic image, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip, L2-class assisted driving, electric tailgate, automatic parking, tracking and reversing, external discharge, crawling mode and tank turning, which is really competitive at a price of more than 100,000 yuan.

From the positioning point of view, iCAR 03 is also a people-friendly route, aiming at young consumers who can accept new things and brands, pursue individuality and fashion, and are not so rich. Occasionally, when they are on a whim, they can go outdoors. It seems that this car still has its own unique charm. After all, there is no pure electric off-road SUV on the market at present, and the arrival of iCAR 03 obviously makes up for this market vacancy.

However, there is still a question mark about whether iCAR 03 can explode, because the price span of this car has reached more than 60,000, and if you study the configuration table carefully, you will find that there are actually many small thoughts hidden inside.

For example, the entry-level model, which costs only 129,800 yuan, focuses on a "gimmick". Although it is not like a joint venture car, it is not equipped with rich functions. In the field of class 130,000, it has no skylight, no front/rear airbags, no 360-degree panoramic image, no wireless charging of mobile phones, no external discharge, etc. At the same time, the car chip also uses Snapdragon 6155 chip, which is obviously a version launched to lower the price.

Even the 149,800 version, which is 20,000 yuan more expensive, as the top match of the two-wheel drive, only has 360-degree panoramic image, 540-degree transparent chassis, panoramic sunroof, external discharge, sound insulation glass and other functions, such as full-speed adaptive cruise, L2-class assisted driving, off-road mode, crawling mode and tank turning, which means that it is difficult to pull out off-road driving, which means that it is easy to drive in the city.

After all, when it comes to pure electric compact SUVs suitable for running in cities, you have to mention the "overlord" in this field-BYD PLUS. For example, the transcendental version with a price of 139,800 yuan not only has 360-degree panoramic image, 540-degree transparent chassis, panoramic sunroof, external discharge and other functions, but also people have more L2-level assisted driving, and the motor torque is 90N·m more than that of iCAR 03. In addition, its pure electric cruising range has reached 430km. Compared with iCAR 03, it seems needless to say who is more competitive.

Moreover, the dual-motor version launched by iCAR 03 is not as strong as expected in terms of cost performance. The four-wheel drive version with a price of 159,800 yuan has a pure electric cruising range of 472km, but it is also not equipped with L2 assisted driving, which is a bit uncomfortable for young people who pursue intelligent driving. In addition, the zero-acceleration score of the dual-motor version has reached 6.5 seconds.

It is not enough to meet the needs of many people for off-road vehicles.

As for the top version with a price of 185,800, the configuration is obviously richer, but with this price to buy a top version, people might as well choose other better models, such as the preferential tank 300, which is stronger in off-road capability and has a good price/performance ratio after the price reduction. Moreover, the car iCAR 03 has a fatal point, that is, its space is too small, the wheelbase is only 2715mm, and it is obviously humbled to sit up. For Chinese people who like big space, iCAR 03 is not up to the point.

Write it at the end

I have to admit that in the field of pure electric off-road SUVs, there are really few competitors of iCAR 03. However, judging from the price it gives, it is not as sincere as expected. The entry-level version of the car is only suitable for driving in the city, but its competitiveness has been greatly reduced. After all, Yuan PLUS, which is also suitable for urban driving, not only has certain terminal concessions, but also has better endurance, space and configuration than iCAR 03. If it does not pursue a more personalized design, consumers will definitely be more willing to trust BYD. The more expensive dual-motor version is not so outstanding in off-road performance, and there are only a handful of people who like off-road. It is also a great challenge to break through with pure electricity.

BMW X5: "King of Roads" Price Counter-attack and Excellent Charm

BMW X5, a luxury SUV that was once sold at a price of 695,000, has now plummeted to 380,000 in some areas. The "king of roads" seems to be incarnated as the "king of price reduction", but this move has brought amazing sales results. In November, it sold 8,900 vehicles, standing out in the 600,000-class luxury SUV market and continuing to sit firmly on the crown.

The core charm of BMW X5 version 3.0 lies in its powerful power system. It is equipped with a 3.0T twin-turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine code-named B58B30P, and incorporates a 48V light mixing system. It can explode 381 horsepower with a torque as high as 520 Nm, matching with an 8-speed automatic manual transmission. It only takes 5.5 seconds to accelerate 100 kilometers and the top speed can reach 250 km/h. This kind of power performance is the best in its class, and the acceleration pleasure when driving is intoxicating.

The handling performance is the specialty of BMW X5. Its tire configuration with 275-wide front wheels and 315-wide rear wheels is unique in the same class. Ultra-wide tires bring super grip, and the car body is calm when cornering at high speed. Even if it soars to 250 yards at an unlimited speed in Germany, or swerves at a speed of 78km/h in the elk test, the car body can remain stable and almost does not tilt. This performance is amazing for an SUV, and the stability and push-back feeling when overtaking also make people forget its SUV instantly.

In terms of design, the new X5 is full of domineering. Enlarged kidney grille with LED matrix headlights, 5060mm slender body with smooth waistline and 21-inch wheels, a large number of chrome-plated body decoration and matte black embellishment complement each other, creating a unique sense of luxury sports. Tail "Heaven-Earth Gate" tailgate design, four thick exhaust pipes and blackened LED taillights make it highly recognizable at night and focus everywhere.

In terms of interior, BMW X5 completely subverts the image of "earthy taste" in the past. The 14.9-inch floating curved screen and the 12.3-inch full LCD instrument are full of science and technology. The embracing cockpit design makes the driver’s seat comfortable and the buttons feel excellent. The iDrive vehicle system has humanized operation logic and gesture control function, and technology and convenience are perfectly integrated. The space performance is also excellent. The rear row is spacious and can lie horizontally. The basic volume of the trunk is 650 liters, and the rear row can reach 1870 liters after being laid down, which is enough to meet various loading needs.

In view of the current price reduction tide, it is an excellent opportunity to start with the BMW X5. Interested friends may wish to go to the 4S store to experience its excellent handling performance. I believe that after a try, you will be conquered by the unique charm of this "king of roads".

Although the BMW X5 has reached the highest cost performance, this American full-size S-hard SUV from GMC Yukon and Schwarzenegger’s favorite Hollywood stars is not bad!

2025 GMC YUKON: New Revolution and Market Game of Full-size SUV

Recently, there has been a remarkable change in the field of American full-size SUV: the 2025 GMC YUKON bid farewell to the domineering V8 engine in the past and adopted a 2.7T four-cylinder engine instead. This change has amazed many American fans, but after in-depth exploration, it will be found that this "slimming version" of Yukon actually has some charm.

First, the burly figure shows American heroism

Despite the reduction, Yukon’s gas field as a classic American full-size SUV has not diminished. Its body size reaches 5357/2058/1940mm, and the wheelbase is as long as 3071 mm. The huge body is coming to that station, and the sense of oppression is coming. The front face continues GMC’s iconic "Heavy Warrior" style. The center of the huge chrome grille is inlaid with an eye-catching GMC logo, and with C-shaped LED daytime running lights, the visual impact is extremely strong. The Denali Peak Edition is equipped with Vader Chrome appearance kit and 22-inch rims, just like the domineering king on the street, and it can attract everyone’s attention wherever it goes.

Second, the power transformation weighs the pros and cons

Admittedly, there is indeed a gap in power performance between the 2.7T four-cylinder engine and the American version of 6.2L V8. Its maximum power is 223kW(303 HP) and its peak torque is 500 Nm, which matches the 10AT gearbox. However, in the current situation of high oil prices, the WLTC comprehensive fuel consumption of this engine is only 12.12L/100km, and 92 # gasoline can be used. This improvement in fuel economy is undoubtedly more in line with the actual needs of domestic consumers, and it can save a lot of fuel expenses for car owners in daily use.

Third, the interior configuration shows luxury and technology.

Yukon’s interior is both luxurious and technological. The 16.8-inch vertical screen central control occupies the visual center, the new four-spoke steering wheel is comfortable to grip, and the exclusive black and brown two-color interior of Denali Peak Edition creates a high-end luxury driving atmosphere. The configuration is more sincere, and the combination of adaptive air suspension and MRC electromagnetic shock absorption can not only ensure driving comfort but also improve handling stability; Super Cruise super assisted driving adds convenience and safety to long-distance travel; The refrigeration and heat preservation function of the central armrest box is practical and intimate; Denali Peak Edition is also equipped with a second row of multi-functional executive seats and BOSE 22 speaker audio, which brings the ultimate comfort to the occupants in the car.

Fourth, the market positioning is unique.

The Yukon, which started at 808,000 yuan, is in a rather delicate position in the market. Its price is much higher than that of Chevrolet TAHOE, similar to that of Nissan, but lower than that of luxury brands such as Mercedes-Benz GLS and BMW X7. In this price range, consumers’ choices are extremely rich: if they pursue traditional large displacement, Nissan Toure is a good alternative; If the budget is sufficient, you can step into the luxury brand camp if you break through one million; In the field of new energy, the models such as the M9 and the Ideal L9 of Wenjie also attract many consumers by virtue of their respective advantages.

Five, comprehensive consideration of rational choice

This change in Yukon is actually a difficult search for a balance between American classic domineering and the actual demand in the current market. For those "iron powder" who are obsessed with V8 large-displacement engines, the emergence of four-cylinder engines may be somewhat unacceptable. However, from the practical point of view, the fuel consumption of about 12L and its compatibility with 92 # gasoline make it more suitable for the consumption environment in the domestic market. If you are eager for a pure American full-size SUV experience, you may wish to wait and see whether there will be a V8 version introduced in the future; If we pay more attention to the practicality of vehicles and are not obsessed with them, then the 2025 GMC YUKON is undoubtedly worth considering; For consumers with sufficient budget and pursuing brand added value, expanding upward and choosing luxury brands may better meet the demand. Finally, let’s think about it: is it an inevitable trend of the times or a compromise to the tradition to adopt a four-cylinder machine for a full-size SUV?

Who will you choose between these two cars? Let’s discuss it in the comments section …
