FAW Besturn B70 2nd Gen

2014 – 2018 — China

The Bestune B70 is a mid-size sedan produced by the FAW Group, under the Bestune brand name. The car has gone through three generations of production, each with its own unique features and characteristics. In the first generation (2006-2014), the Bestune B70 was developed on the Ford CD3 platform, shared with the Mazda 6. It was produced for almost a decade with a mid-cycle facelift in 2012. The technical foundation of the first-generation B70 can be traced back to the first generation of the Mazda6. Moving on to the second generation (2014-2019), the B70 continued to be built on the Mazda 6 platform, and an RS performance variant was introduced, featuring a Volkswagen-sourced turbo engine. This generation marked an evolution in the model's performance capabilities with the inclusion of the high-performance RS variant. The latest third generation B70, introduced in 2020, showcases innovation by being the first car built on FAW's FMA architecture, marking a shift in design and engineering approach. This generation signifies a new era for the Bestune B70, highlighting FAW Group's commitment to modernizing their vehicle lineup with advanced architecture. Overall, the Bestune B70 mid-size sedan has evolved over the years, transitioning from a platform-sharing model with the Mazda 6 to establishing its own identity with new technologies and design elements in subsequent generations. Each iteration reflects the manufacturer's aim to enhance performance,
