Luxurious Wei Ping SAIC Roewe brand new 3rd generation RX5 is not just talk.

In March, faced with the macroeconomic situation and the downward pressure of the automobile industry, Hubei Province launched the first shot of the "price war", which was like thunder on the ground, causing strong repercussions from major car companies. Among them, in the product sequence of 65,438 438+ 10/0,000 +SUV, the new Roewe third-generation RX5 officially dropped by 25,000 yuan, starting from 99,900 yuan, which pushed the price reduction to a climax and left a deep impression on people.

As a meritorious model of Roewe, the original Roewe RX5 once broke into the top of this market segment with its excellent competitiveness. Now, the Roewe RX5 has ushered in the third generation model and shouted the slogan of "120,000 luxury replacement". So what is remarkable about the third generation RX5? Taking advantage of the spring flowers, the author tested this car in Wuhan.

Compared with the previous generation, the appearance of the new third-generation RX5 has changed greatly. Although the Roewe family's "Emotional Rhythm Design Language" is still adopted, a large number of chrome-plated "Phoenix Feather" modeling textures are added to the oversized "X"-shaped air intake grille, which looks very avant-garde and trendy and has great visual impact. There are also dot matrix lights inside the grilles on both sides, which are highly recognizable after being lit at night.

On the side of the car body, the new third-generation RX5 uses a very popular hidden door handle and suspended roof, and the waistline is also very smooth. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the car are 4655 mm×1890 mm×1655 mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2765 mm In the compact SUV market segment, this size still has certain advantages.

Compared with the front of the car, the rear part looks a lot more stable, and there is also a segmented spoiler above the roof, which increases the three-dimensional sense.

Entering the car, the new third-generation RX5 interior is simple and layered. The first 27-inch 4K panoramic intelligent interactive sliding screen at the same level has 4K ultra-high definition resolution, and the display effect is clear and delicate. When you press the button on the center console, the screen can be translated to the right to the co-pilot, or it can be moved left and right through the buttons on the screen or voice control, which is very convenient for two people in the front row.

Good-looking and easy to use, at the same time, the in-vehicle system interface is very simple, which can bring a more efficient and smooth car experience with the blessing of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 155 flagship chip.

In addition, the materials and details of the car are impressive. 98% of the area in the car is covered with soft materials, and the touch areas such as the central control panel and door armrest are covered with soft materials. The crystal handle, the exquisite metal panel at the seat and the stitching treatment of leather all give people a feeling of "exquisiteness" and increase the sense of luxury.

In terms of safety, the new third-generation Roewe RX5 is developed based on C-NCAP five-star excellent standard and 25% small offset collision design on both sides, paying attention to the safety of every driver and passenger. High-strength steel accounts for 79% of the whole vehicle. Combined with the advanced collision load path design with high compatibility and high efficiency, it will protect users' travel.

The brand-new third-generation Roewe RX5 has done an excellent job in this respect. According to the data, at the beginning of this year, China Automotive Technology Research Center released the second batch of evaluation results of C-NCAP in 2023. With solid body structure, advanced body design and rich active safety configuration, the brand-new third-generation Roewe RX5 won the C-NCAP five-star certification with a comprehensive score of 88.6% in this crash test, demonstrating the hard-core safety strength.

In terms of power, the car adopts a brand-new 1.5T VTGI in-cylinder direct injection turbocharged engine and a new generation of DM2 1 PLUS automatic transmission, and adopts a number of luxury brand homologous technologies, and its performance is fully upgraded. The maximum horsepower is as high as 188 horsepower, the peak torque is 300 nm, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers under NEDC standard is only 6.0L, which is the lowest in its class.

Today, the author started from Roewe 4S store and went to Xiaogan Tianyu Lake Resort Hotel, passing through urban road conditions, highway road conditions and country roads. In the test drive, low speed is light and flexible, and high speed can also bring enough self-confidence, which can fully meet the daily needs of home users. In terms of chassis, the brand-new third-generation RX5 suspension is full of toughness, which brings a relatively compact feeling. Coupled with excellent sound insulation, this car is especially suitable for high-speed driving.

The L2 intelligent driver assistance system has good response speed and high enthusiasm for vehicle control in diverse scenarios such as car following, lane changing and automatic parking.

Generally speaking, the brand-new third-generation RX5 is very good in hard indicators such as shock absorption, car silence, large screen fluency, dynamic responsiveness, braking distance, etc. It inherits the consistent excellent quality of RX5 series, not just relying on price to attract attention, and is worth choosing.
