The method to update the system of Roewe i5 is: 1. Download the software according to the screen size; 2. Copy the upgrade file to the root directory of the USB drive; 3. Return to the main interface and click the settings at the bottom bar; 4. Click the system on the left sidebar to enter; 5. On the system settings interface, click the areas marked with red boxes from 1 to 4 clockwise to enter the engineering mode interface; 6.

The Roewe i5 is a compact car under SAIC Motor, with a body size of 4601mm in length, 1818mm in width, 1489mm in height, a wheelbase of 2680mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 45 liters.
For the infotainment system update of the Roewe i5, I found the best approach is to first sit in the car, ensure the vehicle is completely turned off and parked in a safe location. Connecting to WiFi is crucial, as OTA wireless updates rely on a stable network signal. In the infotainment settings menu, locate the "System Update" option and click to check for new versions; if prompted, follow the steps to download and install, with the entire process taking about ten minutes. If the network is unstable, you can use the USB method: download the latest firmware from the Roewe official website to a USB drive, format it to FAT32, then plug it into the car's USB port—the system will automatically detect and guide the installation. Avoid updating while driving to prevent unexpected interruptions; it's best to check monthly for new updates, which can fix software bugs or add new features, such as navigation optimizations or media playback upgrades. Regular updates also help prevent vehicle malfunctions—after my last update, even the voice assistant became more responsive. In short, the process is straightforward but requires patience; if unsure, don’t tamper with it—contact your local 4S store, and they can help you get it done for free.
