"Today's car consumers are happy!" I don't know if you can understand what I said. But if you push the timeline back 10 years or 20 years, you can understand what I'm saying. Cars we can buy now are cheaper, more stylish, and more versatile than ever before. Take the budget of 150,000 yuan as an example, in other words, you can only buy Corolla and Sutar cars before, but now you can consider mid-level cars. For example, today's old driver test drove this Peugeot 408X (picture | configuration | inquiry) ( parameter | inquiry | picture ) ~~

First of all, let's take a look at its appearance, 408X continues the shape of the new generation of overseas 408, the whole design is created by the new design language of the Peugeot brand, not only equipped with the family's new borderless front grille and the brand's new shield lion logo, but also fang-style daytime running lights, the whole shape still feels very sporty and stylish.
The 408X doesn't have a regular sedan or hatchback design, but adopts the classic fastback shape, which is somewhat like a station wagon design. This can be said to be polarizing for the average user, either they like it very much, or they feel very ugly. But this also shows that Peugeot still has its own views on design, and does not completely follow the trend.
The body size is 4705/1859/1502mm in length, width and height, and the wheelbase is 2787mm. But as a joint venture mid-level car, the starting price is only 145,700, and you will feel okay.
The body is designed with a low front and high rear, and the roof arc extends to the rear of the car, which has a strong sense of sportiness, and the wheel arches and skirts are blackened to increase the sense of style of the body.
The rear of the car is relatively compact and embellished with a large number of black accents, with a small spoiler at the end of the roof, a three-section design inside the taillights, and a blackened finish, with a black trim strip in the middle to create a through-effect effect. The lower rear envelope is large in size and is equipped with a double-sided quad exhaust layout on both sides, which further enhances the sporty attributes of the vehicle.
The interior design is mainly black, compared with most of the current rounded design408X has a more sense of design, including the design of the central control screen, the design is angular, the design hierarchy is richer, the air conditioning outlet of the through-type decoration is in the same horizontal position as the LCD instrument panel, the embedded design size of the central control screen is 10.25 inches, and the function control buttons below are slightly inclined to the driver's seat, which increases the convenience of operation.
The multi-function steering wheel with a double-spoke design is wrapped in leather, supporting up and down + forward and backward adjustment and gear shift functions, although the size is not large, but the feel is particularly good.
The in-vehicle display and functions provide functions such as reversing image, GPS navigation system, Bluetooth/in-car phone, mobile phone interconnection mapping, Internet of Vehicles, OTA upgrade, voice recognition control system and so on.
In terms of L2 intelligent driving assistance system, the 408X408X is equipped with 6 cameras and 9 radar sensors, and the main standard equipment: HIA highway driving assistance function, ACC full-speed adaptive cruise (with stop&go function), LPA lane positioning assist, LKA lane keeping assist, AEBS3 automatic emergency braking system, FCW front collision warning, DDA3 driver fatigue detection (driving time reminder and trajectory monitoring), ETSR extended road sign signage, SLI speed limit reminder, ISA intelligent speed control. The mid-range and above are upgraded with 360-degree panoramic image, RCTA rear traffic crossing reminder, and LCA lane change assist system.
Although the 408X seat is wide and not a sports seat, the overall wrapping is not bad, the overall ride comfort is not bad, and the rear space is still Peugeot's weakness, which is not advantageous compared with the intermediate cars on the market, but it can also meet the needs of ordinary families.
There are a total of 21 storage spaces, and the regular volume of the trunk is 536 liters, which can be expanded to 1,611 liters when the rear seats are folded down.
Peugeot 408X is based on the EMP2 V3 platform development, power, the car is equipped with a 1.6T four-cylinder engine, the engine is 175Ps, the power is 129kW, the torque is 250N·m, the fuel number is 92#, the use of direct injection fuel supply in the cylinder, the transmission is matched with an 8-speed manual automatic gearbox, and the fuel consumption is 6.35L/100km under WLTC working conditions.
The vehicle adopts the front-wheel drive mode, the front and rear suspension configurations are adopted, MacPherson independent suspension and trailing arm torsion beam non-independent suspension, with electric power assist and electronic parking functions, and the front and rear brake types are ventilated disc type and solid disc type. Although it is already a family car on the books, you must believe that Peugeot is tuning the driving feeling, and at this price, the 408X can still arouse the driver's desire to drive, which is better than the Japanese and German cars at the same price.
If there are many corners, the steering of the 408X is also worthy of this suspension performance, and the virtual position is more obvious at low speeds, and the higher the speed, the more compact it will appear, the pointing will be more and more accurate, and it will also be more confident when cornering. Coupled with the small size of the racing wheel, it is even more handy for the driver.
