The Roewe RX5 was also once a major seller of its own brand SUV models, and its first-generation models maintained monthly sales of about 20,000 units for a long time. At present, its average monthly sales are at the level of seven or eight thousand units, which is not bad.
In the 354th batch of new car declaration catalogue of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology last month, SAIC Roewe has officially declared a new generation of Roewe RX5 models, compared with the previous few changes, this time the replacement appearance is completely enabled by a new design style, which looks brand new. Recently, the new model of the actual car has also been exposed.
In the front part of the face, although the new middle net is still an X-shaped large mouth shape, the entire middle net is larger, and the upper corner is close to the outer edge of the front bar, so the visual effect is more domineering.
The headlights and grille are a new design style, in which the headlight shape is very slender, and the grille uses a combination of divergent short chrome trim strips, which looks very cool. There is a fixed panel at the front of the cover, and the logo is moved from the middle net to this panel.
The body side is also a new design style, no longer the current boxy and tough shape, with a slippery back effect, the rear triangle window is very small, and the transition between the D-pillar and the rear windshield is smoother. The waistline is high, basically close to the lower edge of the window, where the front and the mussel shell lid slit are integrated.
The new model also features hidden door handles, and another highlight is that in addition to having a camera on its mirror mount, there is also a rearview camera on the trim on the fenders.
The rear of the new car is very sporty, the roof tail is a three-dimensional skeleton shape of the left and right two-stage type, the lower part of the rear windshield is a raised angle shape, the tail light has a penetrating light strip, and the rear bar is decorated with a chrome exhaust design on both sides, with a spoiler shape in the middle.
In terms of size, according to the previous declaration information, the length, width and height of the new model are 4655/1890/1655 (1664) mm, and the wheelbase is 2765 mm, which is larger than the current size.
