In the case of one and only one, what is the best choice? Over the years, SUVs in the Chinese market have been selling well. However, SUVs tend to be expensive sedans in the same size class. In the face of consumers who "have both wants and wants", the Citroen Versailles C5X and biaozhi 408X that we share today are more balanced choices.
The chassis of the two cars has been raised on the basis of maintaining the advantage of space, so as to improve the passability. The Versailles C5 X is priced at 143,700-186,700 yuan, and the 408X is priced at 145,700-179,700 yuan.
The appearance is clearly differentiated, and the Versailles C5X is larger
In terms of appearance, due to everyone's different aesthetic standards, whether it looks good or not is completely a personal subjective will. The Versailles C5X shape is more sci-fi, or the 408X shape is more normal, of course, the Versailles C5X is a larger circle visible to the naked eye.
The same is true in actual data, the length, × width × height of the Versailles C5X are 4805×1865×1505mm, and the length, ×, width × height of the 408X are 4705×1859×1502mm, the former has the advantage of 100mm in length. The two are almost equivalent in wheelbase, Versailles C5X is 2785mm, 408X is 2787mm, there is little difference in driving space, and Versailles C5X has a slight advantage in luggage compartment space. In terms of eyes, it is more inclined to the 408X, and in terms of space, the Versailles C5X is more affordable, depending on what you want.
To put it differently, due to the elevation of the chassis, the no-load ground clearance of the two vehicles is greater than 190mm, and the full-load ground clearance is also greater than 160mm. As a result, the approach and departure angles of the two cars will also be higher, the Versailles C5X approach angle is 18 degrees, the departure angle is 23 degrees, the 408X approach angle is 16 degrees, and the departure angle is 21 degrees. This kind of data performance is already similar to that of many urban SUVs, compared with sedans of the same level, the passability advantage is obvious, and it will be more calm to occasionally take a bad road.
Another point is that the height of the two cars is more than one meter and five, which is much lower than that of SUVs of the same level, which can be exchanged for lower wind resistance. This makes the dynamic performance, wind noise, and fuel consumption of the two cars better than those of SUVs of the same class. In this way, the two cars can well meet the needs of "both want and want".
The interior design is very different, and the 408X is more stylish
Personally, I think that the two are opposite to the exterior in terms of interior styling design. The interior design of the avant-garde Versailles CX5 is very conservative, while the interior space of the 408X is more technological. The cockpit of the Versailles C5X adopts a traditional symmetrical layout, while the 408X's adopts a wrap-around cockpit design that is biased towards the driver's side. In addition, the Versailles C5X seat has a wider seat surface, which is softer and more comfortable. The seats of the biaozhi 408X are more enveloping and supportive, which, combined with the enveloping cockpit, once again emphasises its positioning as a younger and sportier position.

In terms of configuration, the advantages of Versailles C5X include multi-layer soundproof glass in the front row, no reminder of the seat belt in the whole car, keyless entry in the whole car, more lighting in the interior makeup mirror, and the seats are made of imitation leather material and look more valuable than the fabric of the 408X, and there are more electric adjustments, rear center armrests and cup holders. In addition, the number of Versailles C5X speakers is 8 more bluffing than the 6 of the 408X. The advantages of 408X are that the LCD instrument and central control screen are larger, with more CarPlay, with navigation, and support for 4G Internet of Vehicles.

To talk about a more practical space comparison, the Versailles C5X luggage compartment has a regular volume of 545 liters, and the maximum expansion volume is 1640 liters. The biao 408X has a regular volume of 536 liters and a maximum extended volume of 1,611 liters. The longer Versailles C5X performs better in the luggage compartment space.
Therefore, I think that younger friends are more suitable for the 408X, and the configuration and space advantages of the C5X are more suitable for older friends.
The powertrain is exactly the same as the suspension structure, and the pi strands determine the head
Both cars are powered by a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine codenamed 5G06 with a maximum power of 129 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm, mated to an Aisin 8-speed automatic transmission. This powertrain is very familiar to everyone, and the benefits are that the power is sufficient, the gear changes are smooth, and you can use 92 gasoline with confidence.

The suspension section of both cars is also the same, with a MacPherson independent suspension at the front and a torsion beam non-independent suspension at the rear. However, the Versailles C5X comes standard with soft and hard suspension adjustments, and its default tuning style is also clearly comfort-oriented. The tuning of the 408X is more sporty, and the body posture is more solid and stable under intense driving. Therefore, who is better under such a difference needs to sit on it yourself and feel it, and decide your head with pi shares.
Other details are slightly different, choose the right one for you
First, the same entry-level 408X has a more common tire size of 225/55 R18. However, the size of the Versailles C5X is 205/55 R19, and the replacement option is very small, so it is recommended to change to an 18-inch specification when buying a car.
Second, although the two cars are equipped with a reversing image as standard, the Versailles C5X has a four-eye reversing radar, which is more practical.
Thirdly, both cars do not come standard with roof racks, but the Versailles C5X supports factory options. If the low-profile version of the 408X is installed by itself in the later stage, it needs to be registered with the vehicle management department before it can be legally put on the road.
Fourth, due to the larger size of the C5X Versailles, its curb weight reaches 1505kg, which is 40kg more than the 1465kg of the 408X, resulting in the fuel consumption of the C5X Versailles will be slightly higher than that of the 408X.

If you are looking to buy a family car, then the two models in this article are worth recommending. Of course, the lack of reinforcement of new energy models in the two cars is a little regrettable. However, as an "all-round" crossover model, they can achieve "one car with multiple functions", providing a good choice for many users who pursue cost-effectiveness.
