Mainstream compact family cars, the high-selling models are always those few, nothing more than Nissan Xuanyi, Volkswagen Langyi, Toyota Corolla and so on. It is not difficult to find that consumers tend to consider more comprehensive problems on the basis of not having a small budget. As a family car, it is natural to care about the rear space, functional configuration, and the cost of the car in the later stage. Compared with domestic cars, joint venture cars have a higher retention rate, but at the same time the price is much higher than domestic cars, there are advantages and disadvantages, do not believe that you take the same price of domestic cars and the same price of joint venture cars to compare, the gap is clear at a glance.
The car we want to introduce today is the Roewe i5, positioned as a compact sedan, the price range is 67,900 to 99,900 yuan, and there are relatively few joint venture cars at this price point. Taking the top model as an example, the choice of joint venture car can reach the classic Xuanyi and 19 models of Langyi, but the two cars have a gap compared to the Roewe i5, whether it is the appearance value or the interior design layout. Take the 2021 1.5TGT DCT light speed version as an example, let's take a look at how powerful the Roewe i5 is.
In terms of appearance, today's mainstream car buying groups are mostly young consumers, and a car can take the lead in attracting attention only by relying on appearance. Compared with the classic Xuanyi, the 19 models of Langyi, and even comparing the latest model with the Roewe i5, the appearance of this car is really at the forefront of young fashion. The shape adopts a family design style, compared with the ordinary version, this top model adopts a larger area of forward air grille, while supplementing the appearance with a large area of black decoration, the application of the latest lion logo LOGO, coupled with the rich line design elements of the body, showing a certain coupe posture. LED headlights not only have adaptive adjustment and automatic headlight functions, but also equipped with rain and fog mode; the joint venture car at the same price point is not only not, but the light source uses halogen, and the visual gap sense is suddenly there.
Entering the car, the interior design style of the Roewe i5 has been compared with the joint venture competitors, which is enough to be called "fine decoration". The instrument panel adopts an asymmetrical design, while using more soft materials, the seams and air conditioning outlets are made of bright decorative strips, so that the interior does not look dull. The instrument panel adopts a 12.3-inch full LCD effect, the display interface is relatively clean, and the driver assistance function is equipped with road traffic identification, which will be displayed on the dashboard to remind to avoid violations. The 10.25-inch central control screen adopts a horizontal design, and below the screen is a row of air-conditioning physical buttons, which is more convenient for daily operation. The built-in car networking, OTA upgrade, support for online navigation, voice recognition control, and WI-FI hotspot sharing; these functions are not only rare in joint venture cars, but may even need to be installed in the central control screen.
As a family car, the Roewe i5 has excellent rear space. The body is 4615/1818/1489mm in length, width and height, and the wheelbase is 2680mm. Although the wheelbase has a certain gap compared to the new Xuanyi, Civic, and Sagitar, taking the height of 180cm as an example, sitting in the back row can get more than two punches of leg space, and the head space is about one punch, which is obviously enough for home use. The trunk volume is 512 liters in the conventional state, and the rear seat support is reclined as a whole, and it is also possible to move and pull goods occasionally. The top model is priced at less than 100,000, but the configuration is a proper cross-level; there are 360-degree panoramic images, L2 driver assistance, tire pressure display, etc. in the driver assistance function; there are electric sunroofs, mobile phone wireless charging, built-in driving recorders, front seat heating, and electric adjustment of the main passenger seat during the use of the car.
In terms of power, the Roewe i5 is equipped with a 1.5T engine with a maximum power of 127 kW, a maximum torque of 275 N·m, a maximum horsepower of 173 Ps, and a transmission matching a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The power response of the whole car is more positive, the accelerator pedal response is also more heeled, and the joint venture car at the same price is equipped with 1.5L or 1.6L self-priming engine, and the power performance of the Roewe i5 is definitely not bad at 100,000 prices! If the handheld budget is only 100,000, and the need for power is not large, you can consider the 1.5L version, the transmission matches the analog 8-speed CVT gearbox, zero hundred acceleration in about 12 seconds, the average fuel consumption of the city is 6.1L/100km, compared with the joint venture car also has certain advantages.
In January this year, the monthly sales of the Roewe i5 were 13,463 vehicles, and the cumulative sales volume of the whole year of 2021 exceeded 110,000 vehicles, which has reached the mainstream level. Compared with the joint venture car, roewe i5 has a lower price threshold, richer functional configuration, a younger and more fashionable appearance, and the overall cost performance is relatively high at this price.
