What does the AO, A, B class car mean, and are there any other grades?

There are more and more models on the car market, and many consumers have to compare them by grade. At present, the domestic automobile classification method is mainly based on the first, supplemented by technical specifications, that is, 100,000, 150,000, 200,000 yuan ......and other hurdles to divide the economic, mid-range, mid-to-high-end, high-end and other car categories, and consumers can also hear such as A-class cars, B-class cars and other expressions. The following is an introduction to the German A, B, C, D car classification standards that everyone does not know much about.

According to the German car classification standard, cars can be divided into four classes of ABCD. The higher the alphabetical order, the longer the wheelbase, the larger the displacement and weight, and the higher the luxury of the sedan.

According to the German car classification standard, A-class (including A0, A00) refers to small cars; The B-segment is a mid-range sedan; The C-segment is a premium sedan; The D-class car refers to the luxury car, its grade division is mainly based on the wheelbase, displacement, weight and other parameters, the lower the alphabetical order, the longer the wheelbase, the larger the displacement and weight, the luxury of the car is also constantly improving. According to the data, the wheelbase of the A00 class sedan should be between 2 meters and meters, and the engine displacement should be less than 1 liter, for example, Alto belongs to the A00 class car; The wheelbase of the A0 class sedan is from meters to meters, and the displacement is from 1 liter to liter, which is more typical of the hatchback Xiali sedan; Generally speaking, the wheelbase range of the A-class car is about between meters and meters, and the displacement is about to rise, and the Jetta of FAW-Volkswagen and the Polo of Shanghai Volkswagen can be regarded as the stars of the A-class cars; In recent years, the B-class car market has gradually become the main battlefield for domestic automobile companies, Audi A4, Passat, China, Oriental Son and many other models belong to the B-class car camp; The wheelbase of the C-class high-end sedan is about between meters and meters, and the engine displacement is liter-to-liter, and the most famous C-class car in China is none other than the Audi A6; Most of the D-class luxury cars have a grand appearance, the interior space is extremely spacious, the engine power is also very strong, the wheelbase is generally greater than meters, the displacement is basically above the liter, the current common D-class cars in Xi'an have Mercedes-Benz S series, BMW 7 series, Audi A8 and Rolls-Royce, Bentley and other brands of models.

Of course, with the increase of models and the diversification of **, style, and configuration options, there will be more and more edge crossings of A-class, B-class, and C-class cars. For example, some models may have a wheelbase in the A-segment range, but the displacement and ** are not much different from the B-segment. Therefore, the classification of cars should not be too rigid and rigid, and it needs to be handled flexibly.

It is distinguished by the length and wheelbase of the car.

AO-class, such as Fit, A-class, such as Focus, B-class, such as Accord, C-class, such as BMW 5 Series.

Mainly judged by the wheelbase:

Class A00: 2 meters.

A0 grade: Mimi.

Grade A: Mimi.

Grade B: Mimi.

Grade C: Mimi.

Grade D: Greater than meters.

But this is just a general classification, not particularly strict, now in order to obtain enough space, the wheelbase of the sedan is getting longer and longer, but the positioning and luxury of the car itself have not changed.

The A+ class in the car is actually a kind of A-class car, but compared with the ordinary A-class car, the wheelbase and size of the A+ class vehicle are larger than that of the ordinary A-class car, but it still does not meet the standard of the B-class car.

According to the German car classification standard: A00 is a miniature passenger car, A0 is a small passenger car, A-class is a compact passenger car, B-class is a medium-sized passenger car, C-type is a medium and large passenger car, D-class car refers to a large passenger car, its grade division is mainly based on wheelbase, displacement, weight and other parameters, the lower the alphabetical order, the longer the wheelbase of the class of cars, the greater the amount and weight of the stove, and the luxury of the passenger car is also constantly improving.

A-class vehicles generally refer to vehicles with a wheelbase of meters and an engine displacement in liters; The B-segment car generally refers to a vehicle with a wheelbase of meters and an engine displacement of the vehicle.

The grade of the car is mainly determined by the size and compactness of the vehicle, and the quality of the vehicle itself has basically nothing to do with it, so it is not that the higher the grade of the vehicle, the better the quality of the car.

The higher the alphabetical order, the longer the wheelbase, the greater the displacement and weight of the car in this class, and the higher the luxury of the car. Representative models of A-class cars include Volkswagen Golf, Volkswagen Lavida, Toyota Corolla, etc. Representative models of B-segment cars include the Magotan, Passat, Camry, Accord, and Audi A4.

Advantages of the B-segment

The body size of the B-class car is longer, the wheelbase distance is longer, the interior space is larger, the driving comfort is higher, and it is also more in line with the aesthetics of the Chinese people. For the most part, the higher the level of the vehicle, the more sophisticated the manufacturing process, the more stringent the manufacturing specifications, and the higher the technical content.

B-Class sedans are generally larger than A-Class or C-Class sedans, which means you can have more space for passengers and luggage. B-class cars have certain advantages in terms of space, manufacturing process, ruined side, configuration, etc., and can provide consumers with a higher level of driving experience.

Class AO refers to small cars.

The wheelbase of this car is generally 2The engine displacement is between 2 meters and meters (some models are outside this range) from 1 liter to liter, and the more common small cars are: Xiali, Swift, MG 3SW.

Small cars also tend to have low fuel consumption, and their compact sizes provide more comfortable and spacious interior space than mini cars.

In addition to mini cars and small cars, there are also compact cars in the A-class.

1. The AO-level car is a mini-car with a wheelbase between meters and a displacement of 1;

2. Mini cars are the most compact type of cars, and the number of seats is divided into two-seater version and four-seat version;

3. Mini cars are loved by consumers because of their small size, high cost performance and practicality, and can meet the basic travel of small families.

According to the German car classification standard, A-class (including A0, A00) refers to small cars; The B-segment is a mid-range sedan; The C-segment is a premium sedan; The D-class car refers to the luxury car, its grade division is mainly based on the wheelbase, displacement, weight and other parameters, the later the alphabetical order, the longer the wheelbase, the larger the displacement and weight of the car, the luxury of the car is also constantly improving.

According to the data, the wheelbase of the A00 class sedan should be between 2 meters and meters, and the engine displacement should be less than 1 liter, for example, Alto belongs to the A00 class car; The wheelbase of the A0 class sedan is from meters to meters, and the displacement is from 1 liter to liter, which is more typical of the hatchback Xiali sedan; Generally speaking, the wheelbase range of the A-class car is about between meters and meters, and the displacement is about to rise, and the Jetta of FAW-Volkswagen and the Polo of Shanghai Volkswagen can be regarded as the stars of the A-class cars; In recent years, the B-class car market has gradually become the main battlefield for domestic automobile companies, Audi A4, Passat, China, Oriental Son and many other models belong to the B-class car camp; The wheelbase of the C-class high-end sedan is about between meters and meters, and the engine displacement is liter-to-liter, and the most famous C-class car in China is none other than the Audi A6; Most of the D-class luxury sedans have a magnificent appearance, the interior space is extremely spacious, the engine power is also very strong, the wheelbase is generally greater than meters, the displacement is basically above the liter, at present, our common D-class cars have Mercedes-Benz S series, BMW 7 series, Audi A8 and Rolls-Royce, Bentley and other brands of models.

Of course, with the increase of models and the diversification of **, style, and configuration options, there will be more and more edge exchanges for A-class, B-class, and C-class cars. For example, some models may have a wheelbase in the A-segment range, but the displacement and ** are not much different from the B-segment. Therefore, the classification of cars should not be too rigid and rigid, and it needs to be handled flexibly.

The A+ class sedan in the car means that the car is between the A and B classes.

The A+ class in the car is actually a kind of A-class car, but compared with the ordinary A-class car, the wheelbase and size of the A+ class vehicle are larger than that of the ordinary A-class car, but it still does not meet the standard of the B-class car.

According to the German car classification standard: A00 is a miniature passenger car, A0 is a small passenger car, A-class is a compact passenger car, B-class is a medium-sized passenger car, C-class is a medium and large passenger car, D-class refers to a large passenger car, its grade division is mainly based on wheelbase, displacement, weight and other parameters, the lower the alphabetical order, the longer the wheelbase, the greater the displacement and weight of the car, and the luxury of the passenger car is also constantly improving.

Distinguishing between A-class and A0-class cars can be distinguished by wheelbase or car rehearsals. A0 class sedan, wheelbase is meters to meters, displacement of 1 liter to liter, more typical is Xiali sedan, class car wheelbase range between meters to meters, displacement about liter to liter.

The space of the A-class car is larger than that of the A0-class car, and the engine displacement is larger than that of the A0-class car, and the A-class car is also better than the A0-class car in terms of power.

1. Germany divides sedans into A00 class cars (micro cars, such as QQ), A0 class cars (small cars, such as Polo, Fit, etc.), A-class cars (economic cars, such as Bora, Elantra, Excelle, Sunshine, Formilla, etc.), B-class cars (high-end cars, such as Passat, Accord, Mondeo, etc.), C-class cars (high-end cars, such as Audi A6, BMW 5, Mercedes-Benz E, etc.).

Second, the more rigid indicators are that the length of the A-class car is below the meter, the length of the B-class car is above the meter, the model displacement of the A-class car is generally liters, and the displacement of the B-class car is basically between liters, or higher.

The A-Class is a compact sedan, the A0-Class is a small car, and the A-Class is one level higher than the A0-class.

The A0 class is called a small car with a wheelbase of meters to meters and a displacement of 1 liter to liter.

A-class cars, that is, compact cars, have a body in meters to meters, a wheelbase in meters to meters, and a displacement in general to liters.

In life, we often hear terms such as A-class cars, mid-to-high-end cars, and small-displacement cars, but we don't know the true meaning of these concepts. What is the classification of cars according to the rolling dust? This issue of the Car Dictionary will unravel the answer for you.

First, according to the displacement.

It is China's practice to use engine displacement as a sign to distinguish the class of cars. According to China's automobile classification standards, automobiles are classified into 8 categories: 1, cargo trucks, 2, off-road vehicles, 3, dump trucks, 4, tractors, 5, special vehicles, 6, passenger cars, 7, cars, 8, spare classification numbers, 9, semi-trailers.

Take the sedan as an example: the mini car 1L (displacement, the same below) represents the models QQ, Alto, etc.; Ordinary class sedan.

1L, representative models: Carnival, Fit, Polo

Wait; Mid-range sedan. , representative models: Elysee, Corolla, Kaiyue, etc.; Mid-to-high-end sedans.

4L, representative models: Passat, Accord, Mondeo, Audi A6, etc.; High-class sedan salute car.

4L Mercedes S, BMW 7, etc.

Second, according to the length of the car.

The length and width of the car with the wheelbase is also a classification method.

Generally speaking, the length of the minicar is less than one meter, and the width of the car is less than one meter; Small cars.

4 meters or less. The width of the vehicle is less than meters.

Ordinary sedans. meters below, vehicle width meters below;

Limousine. Less than 5 meters, less than the width of the vehicle; Ultra-limousine.

More than 5 meters, and the width of the car is more than meters.

3. Comprehensive grading.

The car is divided into A, B, C, D classes, which is the German division standard, mainly based on wheelbase, displacement, weight and other parameters. A00 class small car, wheelbase between 2 meters to meters, displacement less than 1 liter, such as Alto, etc.; A0 class small sedan, wheelbase meters to meters, displacement 1 liter to liter, such as hatchback Xiali; A-class small sedan with wheelbase between meters and displacement.

1 liter to liter, such as Jetta, Polo; B-class mid-range sedans, wheelbase meters to meters, displacement rises to liters, such as Audi A4, Passat; C-class high-end sedans with a wheelbase of meters to meters, and a displacement that rises to liters, such as the Audi A6; D-class Dazen luxury sedans with a wheelbase greater than meters and a displacement of more than liters, such as Mercedes-Benz S series, BMW 7 series, etc.

A-class cars, that is, compact cars, have a body in meters to meters, a wheelbase in meters to meters, and a displacement that generally rises to liters, because they can meet the needs of ordinary families for a variety of cars, and are recognized by many consumers and become the mainstream of the car market.

Generally speaking, there are A, B, C, D grade cars, the standards of various countries are different, China is not a unified standard, because the German car is the first to cooperate with China and occupy a certain market, more German classification method: according to the German car classification standards, A-class cars include A0, A00 class cars, generally refers to small cars; The B-segment is a mid-size sedan; The C-segment is a premium sedan; The D-class car refers to the luxury car, its grade division is mainly based on the wheelbase, displacement, weight and other parameters, the lower the alphabetical order, the longer the wheelbase, the larger the displacement and weight, the luxury of the car is also constantly improving.

There is also a car called SUV, which is the abbreviation of Sport Utility Vehic Le, which means sports utility vehicle in Chinese, with atmospheric shapes and rough lines. China's independent car brands mostly start with A-class and B-class cars and SUVs. SUVs have been very popular among Chinese users in recent years, and they are more profitable, and car manufacturers and sellers are also keen to develop SUV products.
