With a budget of 110,000, giving up the classic Sylphy and choosing the new Baojun RC-5 is indeed more than just talk.

As Nissan's sales leader, the compact car Sylphy can be said to be the car of choice for many consumers. After all, it comes from Nissan, which has high brand recognition and recognition. At the same time, its quality has stood the test, and it has performed very well in terms of both quantity and value retention. Especially for those who mainly use it at home and pursue peace of mind and durability, Sylphy has obviously become a relatively safe choice. The budget is kept at around 110,000, and the 2021 classic Sylphy is the car of choice for many families. In fact, with the development of the market, domestic brands are also making continuous progress. In the same price range, you do not necessarily have to choose the classic Sylphy. At least I think the RC-5 produced by the new Baojun is also good.

Focusing on high-quality products is the philosophy that New Baojun has always adhered to. With the debut of RC-5, it can be said that the competitiveness has been further improved and it has brought potential consumers a new and cost-effective choice. When asked about the reasons why I personally recommend the new Baojun RC-5, one of the reasons is that it is affordable and sincere. At the same level as the classic Sylphy, the official guide price is only between 59,800 and 109,800. Compared with the classic Sylphy's starting price of 99,800, the advantages of the RC-5 are undoubtedly highlighted.

The price is close to the people and can be accepted by consumers, which is just the basis. If you want long-term development and have a place in the market, excellent product strength is the key. Facing a market where young people have become the main force of consumption, the high-looking styling design is also not absent from this RC-5. As for the front face, the body layout with distinct layers is embedded in it. The sharp headlight combination adopts a split design, which gives it a sense of familiarity with new energy vehicles. From this analysis alone, it is better than the mediocre style of the classic Sylphy.

Looking at the side of the car body, the fastback design that symbolizes sportiness and fashion is really a big plus point. The design layout of long front and short back can be said to have deepened the identity and definition of its own sport. The length, width and height are 4650*1806*1458mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2700mm. Although it is not the best in the same class, it is at the upper reaches of the same class. Moreover, the length and width of the car completely surpass the classic Sylphy.

Anticlimactic, a mistake often made by many domestic car companies, does not exist in the new Baojun RC-5. The overall shape with distinct layers echoes well with the front face. The addition of the continuous taillight combination and the avant-garde cool atmosphere when lit up at night are probably the reasons why many car owners choose RC-5. What's more, it also adopts a hatchback body that is favored by young people, further elevating itself. Good looks. There is one thing to say, in terms of appearance, the new Baojun RC-5 does have more say than the classic Sylphy.

As for the interior styling, the family-style design style is applied. Simple and avant-garde became my first impression. The surrounding central control layout is traversed by a floating LCD screen, a full LCD instrument panel and a floating multi-function steering wheel. To be fair, if you don’t know the true price of the new Baojun RC-5, it is difficult to compare it with a top-end model. Models worth less than 110,000 are linked together. As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison. After watching the new Baojun RC-5 and then looking at the classic Sylphy, the gap in visual beauty is clear at a glance.

Rich configurations and high cost performance are one of the secrets of the new Baojun’s success. Although the RC-5 is a people-friendly product of the new Baojun, it still did not disappoint us. Putting aside basic safety and practical configurations, taking the top-end version as an example, lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, active braking, panoramic images, full-speed adaptive cruise, etc. are all equipped. In addition, wireless charging for mobile phones, voice recognition control systems, Internet of Vehicles, OTA upgrades, etc. that are more important to young consumers are not surprising. Let me ask you, how can you compare the classic Sylphy, which lacks even cruise control, parking radar, and push-button start?

Finally, let’s talk about the hardware layout. In order to meet the needs of different consumers, the new Baojun RC-5 is divided into two engines: 1.5L and 1.5T. The maximum power is 99 and 147 horsepower respectively. It is matched with six-speed manual and CVT transmission. There are only two power options, self-priming and turbine, which are not comparable to the classic Sylphy that is solely self-priming. Like the classic Sylphy, it has proven hardware, but its power is better than the classic Sylphy.

In general, compared with the past, domestically produced cars have indeed made great progress.

The price is close to the people, and the product quality is also good value for money. It has become a true portrayal of many independent brands. The RC-5 introduced today is one of the representatives. The appearance is more handsome than the classic Sylphy, the configuration is higher than the classic Sylphy, and the quality is not inferior to the classic Sylphy. It can be seen that the RC-5 has achieved sales of 6047 units in less than a month after being launched, making it the most beautiful hot model. It is obviously Well deserved.
