The BORGWARD BX5 is a compact SUV with dimensions of 4490mm in length, 1877mm in width, and 1675mm in height, featuring a wheelbase of 2685mm and a fuel tank capacity of 60L.

I understand the engine of the Borgward BX5. It comes standard with a 1.4-liter turbocharged gasoline engine, delivering around 150 horsepower, designed in an inline-four-cylinder layout, paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. This engine provides smooth urban driving with a fuel consumption of approximately 8 liters per 100 kilometers. It incorporates German technology but has lower maintenance costs after localization. The 1.8T version offers stronger performance with 190 horsepower, suitable for users seeking more power, but overall reliability and noise control require extra attention.
As someone who has driven this car, the BX5's 1.4T engine is sufficient for daily use, with quick acceleration response and no sluggishness when starting at traffic lights. I often drive in the city, keeping fuel consumption under 9 liters, which is quite economical. The downside is that the engine noise is a bit noticeable at high speeds, but after tens of thousands of kilometers, there have been no major issues. The 1.8T version offers ample power but consumes slightly more fuel, making it suitable for those who enjoy spirited driving.
