Is Roewe a domestic or joint venture brand?
2 Answers
Roewe is a domestic brand, and its models include: Roewe RX5, Roewe RX8, Roewe RX3, Roewe MARVEL X, Roewe I6, etc. Taking the 2020 Roewe I6 as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4671mm, width 1835mm, height 1464mm, wheelbase 2715mm, minimum ground clearance 115mm, and fuel tank capacity 50 liters. The 2020 Roewe I6 is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 124kw and a maximum torque of 250nm, matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I have some knowledge about this. Roewe is a Chinese indigenous brand under SAIC Motor, which is the well-known Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation. Established in 2006, although it initially utilized technology from Britain's Rover, the brand is entirely controlled by our Chinese automaker. Joint venture brands refer to those co-established by Chinese and foreign companies like SAIC-Volkswagen, whereas Roewe is independently operated by SAIC as its own offspring. Current models like the Roewe RX5 and iMAX8 running on the roads are all developed and manufactured in China, and even exported to overseas markets. In recent years, they have made significant strides in the new energy vehicle sector, with technologies like the pure electric SUV Marvel R being independently developed. Therefore, I consider Roewe a strong representative among domestic car brands.
