The 150,000-level compact SUV market is undoubtedly one of the most competitive segments. Not only do independent brands occupy the market through configuration and space advantages, but joint venture brands are also gradually lowering their prices to this range, trying to regain market share. If you have a budget of 150,000 yuan, these joint venture compact SUVs are worth a look.
Fonlanda
Manufacturer's guide price: 125,800-185,800 yuan
As the market share continues to be seized by independent brands, many joint venture cars can't help but reduce prices one after another. After the price cut, the sales volume of Fenglander exceeded 10,000 units per month, and 18,066 and 10,774 units were sold in January and February 2024, respectively. The price of its electric hybrid double engine top configuration has come to 155,800, and the entry price has even dropped to less than 100,000, which is indeed very attractive.
The appearance of the Flanda takes the young route. It has a very tight shape, and the whole silhouette is tough enough to be more in line with the aesthetics of young people. It also provides more than 10 body color options for the individual needs of young people. The interior is all too familiar with the Toyota family style, which is easy to get familiar with and get used to. If you want to have a better car experience, it is recommended to start with the luxury version, from this version to add reversing camera, LED daytime running lights, imitation leather seats, electric adjustment for the main driver, rear seat air vents and other configurations.
In terms of power, the Fenglander fuel version is equipped with a 2.0-liter self-aspirated engine with a maximum power of 126kW and a maximum torque of 205Nm, mated to a CVT continuously variable transmission. It is equipped with a MacPherson independent suspension at the front and a torsion beam non-independent suspension at the rear. Built on the TNGA-C platform, it has both power, handling and economy.
Oncora PLUS
Manufacturer's guide price: 126,900-136,900 yuan
For those who have difficulty choosing, you can take a look at the Encora PLUS, because there are two models in its full range. The fun version and the smart version are priced at 126,900 and 136,900 respectively. And at present, there is a discount of 10,000 yuan in the whole system, and you can get it in the early 100,000s.
In terms of design, the Encora PLUS has the blessing of the PURE Design design concept, with a larger front grille, split headlights and the "three-color shield" logo, which makes the temperament of the Encora PLUS to a higher level. Its interior design is based on Buick's new family interior, which we have seen on many models such as the E5 and Century. The dual 10.25-inch large screens are very recognizable, and the brown/black interior color scheme of the Encora family elements also continues.
The Encora PLUS also performs well in terms of configuration and power. The eConnect system has a built-in Baidu on-board map, and can support three-finger flying screen operation and voice control. As a top-of-the-line configuration, its comfort and convenience configuration is also more comprehensive. In terms of power, it abandoned the 1.3T three-cylinder engine with a maximum power of 121 kilowatts on the previous Encora GX, and replaced it with a 1.5T four-cylinder engine of the same Buick high-spirited model, with a maximum power of 135kW, matched with a CVT continuously variable transmission.
Mazda CX-5
Manufacturer's guide price: 125,800-197,800 yuan
The Mazda3 and Mazda6 were "booming" at the time, but today, Mazda's performance in the market is not very satisfactory, so it has begun to actively adjust. The 2024 Mazda CX-5 has been adjusted from 149,800 units to 125,800 units. It is equivalent to 150,000 yuan to buy a good configuration version, and the 151,800 yuan 2.0L automatic two-wheel drive Zhiya Pro version, the configuration has reached the top.
I believe that few people will think that Mazda models are ugly when they see them, and the soul of motion design language is full of vitality and dynamics. The interior still maintains the old style, and the overall design is more layered, but it looks a little old-fashioned now. The Mazda CX-5 is equipped with reversing camera, automatic parking, keyless start and other control configurations as standard, as well as comfort features such as the main driver's waist adjustment, Yuelian car machine system, and multi-layer soundproof glass in the front row, ensuring the car experience.
The Mazda CX-5 is equipped with two powertrains, both mated to a 6-speed automatic manual transmission, with a 2.5-liter engine with a maximum output of 144 kW and a maximum torque of 252 Nm for the sub-top and top variants, and a 2.0-liter engine with a maximum output of 114 kW and a maximum torque of 200 Nm. If you don't have much demand for power, it is enough to choose the Zhiya Pro version model, which is fully equipped.
Beijing Hyundai Musa
Manufacturer's guide price: 121,800-167,800 yuan
99,800 yuan to buy a joint venture compact SUV, what do you think? Beijing Hyundai Musa, the current maximum discount of 22,000 yuan, less than 100,000 yuan can be started, the top price to 150,800. However, if your budget is more dead, Brother Yu recommends the sub-top version of 137,800 yuan, the flagship version TOP.
The appearance of Korean cars has always been more aggressive, and so has Mu Sa. Compared with the above models, it is more atmospheric and rugged. The X-shaped front face, all-black grille, modular daytime running lights, and similar "C" shaped headlight clusters on both sides not only make this car look more imposing, but also have a greater visual appearance. It is worth mentioning that it has a "two-bedroom apartment" concept. The main driver is sporty-theme, the co-driver is stylish, and the rear row is spacious and comfortable, which can bring a more suitable ride experience to passengers with different seats.
In terms of power, Musa is equipped with a combination of 2.0L self-priming engine + 6AT gearbox. With a maximum power of 118kW and a peak torque of 193N·m, the power is not very strong, but it is no problem for home use.
The above four models are all from mainstream joint venture brands, and all of them have high cost performance. Judging from the appearance and price, Brother Yu Lu thinks that the Beijing Hyundai Musa sold from 99,800 is more fragrant, what do you think?
