That day I drove my friend's newly purchased Baojun RS-3 on mountain roads, and the chassis was noticeably higher than a sedan, providing exceptional stability on gravel surfaces. Checking the specs: 160mm ground clearance, roof rack included, with body dimensions of 4300×1750×1625mm – a proper compact SUV setup. The rear seats can be folded down to fit a tent, and the trunk accommodated three 20-inch suitcases with room to spare. This size is perfect for young small families, making school runs and weekend getaways effortless, offering far more practicality in terms of off-road capability and space than sedans.

Accompanied my relative to test drive the RS-3 at the 4S store, where the salesperson directly pointed at the suspension and said 'professional SUV chassis'. At 180cm tall, I still had a fist's worth of headroom in the driver's seat, with a clear view of the hood. The car is equipped with a 1.5T engine, easily climbing rural dirt slopes at 3000 rpm. The competing model Changan CS35 PLUS in the same showroom shares this positioning. It's agile for urban commuting and capable enough for weekend off-road trips, officially positioned as a 50,000-class compact SUV.

After reviewing the Baojun official database, the RS-3 is categorized as a five-door, five-seat compact SUV. Key parameters highlight its SUV credentials: 160mm minimum ground clearance, 18° approach angle, and standard traction control system. The cabin features a high-seating-position design, with rear seats folding flat to expand cargo capacity to 958L. I've driven it through waterlogged sections in rainy conditions—the chassis sealing outperforms sedans, and the dual-density foam seats provide excellent lumbar support. This model offers comfortable commuting with occasional off-road capability.
