Many people may have a question. Chang'an Ford has a new and old Fox partner to compete in the market. Why should it launch a Forrest with similar price? Nobody wants to kill each other, so does Chang'an Ford. They position Forrest as a "new national sedan chair" to show the difference from Fox. Did Furious grab the title of national sedan chair? The owner's home recently conducted a long-distance test drive of this model, and the answer will be revealed in the article.
The owner's home has taken a detailed live shot of this new car before, see Chang'an Ford Forrest 。
From the perspective of platform, Chang'an Forrest is upgraded based on the Fox platform, and the two cars still have a great inheritance relationship.

But in fact, Forrest is quite different from Fox. Compared with the Focus hatchback version, the wheelbase of Forrest is 2687mm long, nearly 40mm longer than the new Focus. The actual impression is that the front overhang of Forrest is longer, the waistline is flatter, and the final effect is that it is generally more "stable".
| Model | Forrest | New Focus | Classic Cruz | Excelle |
| Length (mm) | four thousand five hundred and eighty-seven | four thousand five hundred and thirty-four | four thousand six hundred and forty-three | four thousand five hundred and fifteen |
| Width (mm) | one thousand eight hundred and twenty-five | one thousand eight hundred and twenty-three | one thousand seven hundred and ninety-seven | one thousand seven hundred and twenty-five |
| Height (mm) | one thousand four hundred and ninety | one thousand four hundred and eighty-three | one thousand four hundred and seventy-seven | one thousand four hundred and forty-five |
| Wheel base (mm) | two thousand six hundred and eighty-seven | two thousand six hundred and forty-eight | two thousand six hundred and eighty-five | two thousand and six hundred |

The Ferus is positioned as a new national sedan, which is also very clear, that is, to seize the market of a number of "divine cars", including Chevrolet Cruz and Buick Excelle, which have huge market shares, are the benchmark models of Ferus. Compared with these models, Forrest can basically win slightly in size.
From the perspective of modeling, Forrest is independent of Fox. The most direct performance is in the appearance design. Forrest got the "Martin Face" first than Fox. It can be seen that Changan Ford has high hopes for Forrest.
Personally, the appearance of the whole car is not very impressive, but it will never feel awkward.
There is no doubt that Chang'an Ford Forrest wants to create a new image. Jump out of the previous design style that favored young people and take a steady style. I hope that while catering to the trend, I can bring more conservative uncles into my arms.
