Limited editions and new options: which models received updates in August?

Apparently, the automakers decided to save the high-profile premieres until September and in August they created only special versions or added options for existing models. This is the conclusion reached by the experts of the Auto Price website based on the monitoring of model ranges of brands officially presented in Russia.

The restyled Toyota Hilux and Fortuner, sales of which started on August 20th, can be considered as novelties in this period. Other 4 models received new options in August. Among them we can see the new Audi A6 allroadquattro in standard trim levels, which at the start of sales was offered only in an expensive limited edition 20 Years Edition. Now you can order cars in conventional configurations and at lower prices. Two Chinese crossovers, CheryTiggo 4 and Haval F7, received new trim levels, but if the line of Tiggo 4 increased due to the basic versions, then the Haval F7 received the top-end TechPlus modification. In addition, KIA dealerships have begun the sales of KIA Soul crossover in a new Style version with a more affordable engine, which offers a number of interior improvements previously only available for more expensive versions. But the Korean brand Hyundai has introduced the Hyundai Santa Fe crossover in a limited edition Black & Brown. A new special version of the five-seater SantaFe is available in a limited edition of 300 vehicles. In August, three brands announced their autumn premieres - KIA K5, Mitsubishi Outlander and GAC GS5, and German brand Mercedes-Benz began the accepting of orders for the new Mercedes-Maybach GLS luxury crossover, which should be on sale in October.
