2 Answers
The Roewe RX5 is a compact SUV and an internet-connected vehicle under the SAIC Roewe brand. Taking the Roewe RX5 2020 20T manual variant as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4556 mm, width 1855 mm, height 1719 mm, with a wheelbase of 2700 mm and a fuel tank capacity of 55 liters. The Roewe RX5 2020 20T manual variant is equipped with a 1.5T 169 horsepower L4 engine, delivering a maximum power of 124 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission. It features a MacPherson strut independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension.
I think the Roewe RX5 is a compact SUV, a brand product under the SAIC Motor Corporation. It is primarily targeted at urban family users in the market, offering a spacious interior with ample rear legroom and a large enough trunk to easily accommodate luggage or shopping bags. What I like most about it is its practicality—daily commuting fuel consumption is not high, with the 1.5T engine typically averaging 7-8 liters per 100 kilometers, making it economical to drive. The safety features are quite comprehensive, including ABS and multiple airbags, which reduce the risk of accidents. The RX5's intelligent Banma system is a highlight for me—the voice control responds quickly, the navigation is convenient, and it helps reduce distractions while driving. Although the brand is not an international big name, it is highly reliable with low maintenance costs, and its sales in China consistently rank at the top. It's a high-value-for-money choice, especially suitable for buyers with limited budgets who also seek comfort and functionality.
