Does the Roewe RX5 Million Edition have the Banma System?

[OGrace]

Roewe RX5 Million Edition is equipped with the Banma System. Below are the details about the Roewe RX5: 1. Exterior: Based on the official preview images, the Roewe RX5 adopts the "Rhythm Design" language, featuring a matrix LED headlight assembly composed of 24 LED light sources. The body lines are stylish and dynamic, with a dual-waistline design on the side profile. The roof comes with a luggage rack, and the overall body lines are rhythmic and full of tension. 2. Interior: The interior of the Roewe RX5 also follows the "Rhythm Design" concept, showcasing a minimalist and modern style. The dashboard is wrapped in leather and offers a red-black color scheme, with an optional dark black interior. Aluminum trim accents run throughout the cabin. The standout feature is a vertically oriented 10.4-inch full HD capacitive touchscreen tilted toward the driver, providing a more convenient and safe driving experience.

Last time when I accompanied my friend to pick up the Roewe RX5 Million Edition, I specifically researched this. This commemorative version comes with the Zebra System 2.0 pre-installed, which includes several more practical features compared to the standard version. Operations like voice-controlled sunroof are indeed quite responsive—just say 'Hello Zebra' while driving to handle navigation and music switching. However, it's important to note that the Million Edition is a special version from 2018, and the latest models now use System 3.0, which has significantly better voice recognition rates and a more extensive app store. If you're buying a used car, it's best to have the seller demonstrate the response speed of the voice-controlled air conditioning on the spot, as older versions might occasionally lag.

As active members of the Roewe owners' group, over a dozen RX5 Million Edition owners in our group have verified this. The car comes standard with the Banma Zhixing system, and the boot screen features a million-commemorative badge. In practice, it's more convenient than expected, especially for long-distance driving where voice navigation setup is a breeze. But to be honest, this 2018 system is a bit outdated now, and many new apps in the app store can't be installed. Last week, Old Zhang in the group just paid out of pocket to upgrade the hardware module, spending nearly two thousand yuan just to access the online music library. If buying second-hand, it's recommended to bring a phone to test the car's WiFi hotspot function, as this feature is most prone to issues.

Experience from owning a Million Edition for three years: It does have the Zebra system, but it's the most basic version. Only three functions are really useful: remote air conditioning via smartphone saved me several times in summer, voice navigation has about 80% recognition accuracy, and the built-in 4G can check real-time traffic. The drawbacks are obvious - no OTA updates (had to visit the dealership for map updates this year), and the voice button on the steering wheel sometimes requires two presses to respond (a common issue among owners). If you're buying used specifically for the smart system, consider newer models with the Venus system.

Last year, I flipped two Million Edition models in the used car market and specifically tested the Zebra system. Pressing the voice button on the left side of the steering wheel pops up a blue voice assistant interface. Basic functions are all there: checking weather, changing radio stations, adjusting air volume. But it gets confused with complex commands like 'find charging stations along the route.' Interestingly, radio channel names can be displayed on the dashboard via voice, a nice little detail that adds points. Honestly though, this system feels outdated now—the touchscreen responds with a lag, and switching to Huawei HiCar for phone projection is noticeably smoother.

Those who have studied the configuration sheet can confirm that the Million Edition comes standard with the Zebra 2.0 system across the entire lineup. However, the key point is that this commemorative edition has some features cut: it cannot control smart home devices, and the app store only retains Amap and Xiami Music (Xiami has long been discontinued). The reversing camera is actually clearer than the standard version and comes with trajectory lines. There's a hidden trick I really like: holding the HOME button for 10 seconds forces a system reboot, which is especially useful when the system freezes. If you're considering buying now, I recommend bringing a USB drive to test the media playback function, as the USB ports on older models are prone to poor contact.
