Volkswagen Sutar Valeant Peugeot 408 Malibu Citroen C5, compare which one is better

Mondo Cars Updated on 2024-01-30

About 150,000 yuan is a very strange budget range for buying a car. Within this range, you can choose compact sedans such as Buick Veran, Peugeot 408, or A-segment models such as Volkswagen Sutar. At the same time, you can even choose a mid-level car like the Chevrolet Malibu XL, so how should we choose among these models?

Today we're going to talk about that. First of all, let's talk about the German Sutar. Recently, Volkswagen has introduced great discounts. As the top model of the Sutar 14T series, the guide price of the Sutar 280TSIDSG flagship model is 18.28 million. At present, the reference price has fallen to 14.58 million, which is indeed very attractive.

Everyone is already very familiar with the Sutar model. Whether it's the exterior, the power, the interior, or the configuration, it performs remarkably and has no obvious shortcomings. The Sutar is a model with the essence of Volkswagen. The design is in line with the aesthetics of the Chinese. Both men, women, and children have a good acceptance of Volkswagen's design concept.

The interior is also good, more than enough for daily use. After upgrading the rear suspension to a multi-link independent suspension, the Sutar has significantly improved in terms of cost performance and actual driving performance. The balanced performance of Sutar makes it a "no-mistake" choice.

Based on the condition of "large space, preferably a mid-size car", we first exclude the Sutar, Verano, and Peugeot 408. Because the Sutar is a standard A-class car, the Verano and Peugeot 408 are A-class sedans, and the mid-size cars are only Malibu and Citroen C5. The following is mainly an introduction to the two cars Malibu and Citroen C5, which one is more worth buying.

The second condition is "comfortable, plus sunroof, budget of about 150,000". The manufacturer's guide price for the high-end Malibu is 189,900. At present, the terminal is generally discounted by 490,000. The reference price of a naked car with a sunroof is only 14.09 million in cash;The lowest version of the Citroen C5 with sunroof is a 350THP automatic luxury model, with a manufacturer's guide price of 17.99 million yuan.

The terminal 4S store generally offers a discount of 20,000 yuan, and the reference price is 15.99 million yuan. The difference between the actual naked prices of the two cars is nearly 20,000 yuan. Not to mention appearance, the benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise see the wise. In terms of interior, the interior quality of the Citroen C5 is comparable to that of Malibu. Malibu's interior design is old-fashioned, not keeping up with trends, and the materials used are relatively average.

It can even be said that it is unsatisfactory, and it does not feel at all as it should be in a mid-level car. It does seem so. In addition, car owners who buy Malibu generally report that the smell of the new car is a bit heavy. Appearances are for people to see. The interior is the most important thing that drivers face every day. Good interior design can make people feel good.

As the second mid-size car, the exterior and interior of the Citroen look quite mature, its dimensions are far less striking than the Malibucl, and even the trunk capacity is not as good. As a pickup truck, the platform cannot be updated, the weight of the vehicle becomes the biggest disadvantage, and fuel consumption does not prevail. However, as a high-end configuration.

It comes with cruise control, a reversing camera, and automatic air conditioning, which are all advantages. However, since the terminal discount is generally lower than that of malibuxl, the budget of 150,000 is definitely out of the question. Although the 408 is considered a compact model, its superior wheelbase (2730 mm) results in considerable legroom, even more than some midsize cars.

However, Good Space has yet to find the right brand. Its configuration strategy makes consumers except for the top-of-the-line model feel insincere. The 16T top-of-the-line model priced at 16.17 million doesn't even have a basic reversing camera and keyless entry, not to mention leather seats

Large space, low configuration, and ** grid caused the 408 to rely on larger discounts to maintain sales. The above sharing on this topic is my personal opinion and suggestion.
