The curb weight of the Roewe RX5 two-wheel-drive version is 1,592 kilograms; the four-wheel-drive version has a curb weight of 1,680 kilograms. Below is an introduction to the Roewe RX5: 1. The Roewe RX5 is positioned as a compact SUV. 2. The Roewe RX5 is equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine across all models. The engine has a maximum power output of 124 kW, a maximum torque of 250 Nm, a maximum power speed of 5,500 rpm, and a maximum torque speed ranging from 1,700 to 4,300 rpm. The engine is paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The dual-clutch transmission offers fast gear shifts and high transmission efficiency, making it well-suited for use with small-displacement turbocharged engines. 3. The Roewe RX5 features a MacPherson independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. The multi-link independent suspension enhances wheel contact with the ground, improving traction and handling.

I recently switched to a Roewe RX5 as my daily driver, with a total weight of around 1,550 kg. The car feels quite stable, especially on the highway where it doesn’t drift, but the fuel consumption is a bit higher than sedans, averaging about 9-10 liters per 100 km in the city. As an average car owner, I think the extra weight improves safety, like being more solid in a collision, though you need to be mindful of turning radius and avoid sharp turns. It handles carrying stuff just fine—the trunk can fit a stroller and some miscellaneous items, and tire wear isn’t too bad. I’d recommend regularly checking tire pressure and the suspension to avoid extra strain affecting handling. Overall, the moderate weight makes it quite practical.

With over a decade of car repair experience, the Roewe RX5 typically weighs between 1,550 to 1,600 kilograms, depending on the specific model. From a chassis perspective, this weight puts considerable pressure on the tires and brakes, necessitating frequent brake pad replacements; otherwise, the car may vibrate during sudden braking. The weight also impacts fuel consumption—the 1.5T version is relatively lighter but accelerates slower. I often remind owners not to overload the vehicle, as it can prematurely wear out the suspension; routine maintenance should focus on engine oil and cooling. Overall, the RX5's weight distribution is decent, reducing the risk of skidding, making it safe for urban driving.

Young car enthusiasts are all talking about the Roewe RX5. This car weighs around 1,550 kg, offering super stable handling but less agile cornering. The weight affects acceleration—it's a bit sluggish off the line but strong at high-speed cruising, with minimal tire noise. I've tried upgrading the rims; lightweight ones are a must, or else fuel consumption jumps to 11-12 liters. Space is a major advantage—the back seat can comfortably fit three friends. The weight makes parking assist features more crucial, so the reverse radar must always be on. Overall, the weight is just right for daily commutes or road trips.

Can a 2021 car pass the annual inspection after modifying the front grille?

If a 2021 car's front grille is replaced with a Chinese-style grille, and the owner goes to the vehicle management office in advance to file the modification and updates the photo on the driving license, the car can pass the annual inspection. However, if the owner fails to file the modification in advance and does not update the photo on the driving license, the annual inspection will not be passed. Relevant regulations for modification procedures: Since September 1, 2019, modifying the front grille of a car is considered a legal modification. According to the latest "Motor Vehicle Inspection Work Regulations," during the registration and annual inspection, the actual appearance of the vehicle should match the photo, except for modifications to the front grille. If the vehicle's appearance does not match the photo on the driving license and the modification is done without authorization, it is illegal. Traffic police may impound the vehicle and order the owner to revert the changes. Article 16 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulates that no unit or individual may assemble a motor vehicle or alter the structure, construction, or characteristics of a registered motor vehicle without authorization. Regulations that do not require modification procedures: Article 16 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations" states that under the following circumstances, the owner of the motor vehicle does not need to apply for modification registration, provided that the safety and identification of the license plate are not affected: small and micro passenger cars equipped with front and rear anti-collision devices; freight motor vehicles equipped with windshields, water tanks, toolboxes, spare tire racks, etc.; and increased interior decoration of the motor vehicle. In other words, except for the above cases, any modification to a car requires filing with the vehicle management office.
