A post-90s buddy wants to choose a joint venture compact SUV of about 200,000 yuan, and the advice given by his family is to add some money to the Honda CR-V, because of the large number of ownership, good reputation, and high space level.
But that's a bit different from what my buddies think.
1. He does not have high requirements for space, and it is enough to use it.
2. I feel that CR-V is too ordinary, full of streets, and not personalized enough.
3. He likes to drive and wants to control SUVs better.
4. Insensitive to Japanese cars.

There are really not many joint venture compact SUVs at this price, and most of them are Japanese models, but the recently launched Citroen Tianyi C5 Aircross has a good chance of being included in the car purchase list of buyers with such needs.
The interior and exterior design is absolutely individual.
If you don't say it, you may not know that the original new Peugeot 4008 and this C5 Aircross are derived from a platform, which can basically be understood as a shell model (Peugeot and Citroen belong to the same PSA), but this shell change is really too thorough, C5 Aircross has a bit of a taste of direct mass production of concept cars, in the eyes of the older generation, this may be weird, but I believe it will attract a lot of young people who like personality, because the design is really good.
And the cockpit of the C5 Aircross is also very fresh, a bit of a self-styled feeling, the design of the air outlet, steering wheel, function buttons, and gear lever are very jumpy, which is worth playing with for a long time, directly from a vehicle to a toy, this feeling is not given by other hot-selling models.
The space level is sufficient, and the French function is no longer ***
The wheelbase of the C5 Aircross is longer than that of the CR-V and X-Trail, but the actual space is still not as strong as these two Japanese space kings, but unless you have a special complex for large space, the space of the C5 Aircross will not be a reason for you to refuse it, and the space of the C5 Aircross is already abundant.
In addition, the design of the French car, which has been complained about before, has been optimized a lot on the C5 Aircross, or it can be understood that it is closer to the preferences of Chinese car owners, such as storage space, there are a lot of storage compartments, and it is also very practical, which is not weaker than Japanese cars of the same level, and you no longer have to endure functional "castration" for the sake of design.
Dynamic performance. The powertrain of the C5 AirCross is still the same set of THP, 16t and 1It is available in two 8T sizes with a 6AT gearbox. From the output point of view, there is no advantage over the CR-V, and the entry power of the CR-V is 1The 5T is already close to 200 horsepower, compared to the 1 of the C5 Aircross8t is a little more than 200 horsepower, 1The power level of the 6thp is in CR-V 15t and X-Trail 20l.
However, the turbo intervention of THP power is early, the torque is greater, and the explosive power comes earlier, and it is indeed more exciting to drive with a 6AT gearbox, which is the characteristic of the C5 AirCross engine, and it is also incomparable to the two opponents who use the CVT gearbox.
Chassis quality. The use of semi-independent suspension in the rear suspension of C5 Aircross does attract a lot of slots, but in fact, the chassis sound insulation and handling of C5 AirCross are above CR-V and X-Trail, especially the chassis sound insulation, which has a very strong sense of thickness. However, the impact of the semi-independent rear overhang will still be there, that is, the ride comfort of the rear row will be slightly inferior to the two Japanese rivals.
However, the C5 AirCross, like the Peugeot 4008, does not have a four-wheel drive system in the whole system, which is only suitable for walking on a bad road, and the ability to get out of trouble is average.

Purchase referrals. 350thp 380thp fashionable.
Guide price: 1697/19.270,000 yuan.
C5 AirCross launched a total of 6 configuration models, in addition to the comfort of the beggar's version and the flagship model of the top configuration, the fashion version of the cost performance is the most cost-effective in the entire car series, the fashion version of the two power in addition to the different power configuration, the shape of the gear lever is different, there is no difference in configuration, keyless entry, one-button start, reversing image, full LCD instrument panel, panoramic sunroof and other functions are equipped.
The 350thp luxury model is 20,000 yuan and 1 yuan more expensive than the 350thp fashion model and the 380thp luxury model is more expensive than the 380 thp fashion type70,000 yuan, more than electric tailgate door, cruise control, GPS navigation, etc., in terms of practicality, it is only an embellishment configuration.
If the demand for power is not high, 350thp (16t) Fashionable type is completely sufficient. Otherwise, pick 380thp (1.)8t), to be reminded that the electronic gear lever is only available on the 380THP power model, if you fancy this more handsome gear lever, you can only go on 18T power, but now the manufacturer has a purchase tax subsidy of 10,000 yuan for 380THP power models, so the actual price difference between 350THP and 380THP fashion models is 170 thousand.
C5 Aircross is indeed a very cost-effective car, a compact SUV with a standard body, with excellent design, rich configuration level, chassis quality is also very good, according to the recommended version, the minimum is less than 200,000 to land, buy CR-V, Tiguan L, Envision and the like at this price, the configuration can only be said to be just enough, and there are small SUVs close to the top at the same price such as Encora, Binzhi, Qashqai, etc., and their body shape cannot be compared with C5 AirCross.
But only if you accept the C5 Aircross, these slots:
1. Except for the top configuration, the rest of the versions are halogen lamps.
2. The electronic gear lever is only at 380thp (18T) models are available, and it is difficult to land 200,000.
3. The rear non-independent suspension of the whole system.
4. General after-sales service.
Therefore, the C5 Aircross is indeed only suitable for the younger generation, after all, the shape is too "heterogeneous", and young people's aesthetics can be appreciated. And they don't care much about the things on the books, such as displacement, it's good to be enough, and they don't think 16l or 18L is too small and too cheap; For example, suspension, what about non-independence, the actual feeling is the most important, and the non-independent rear suspension mainly affects the comfort of the rear row, and now young buyers really don't care, they just need to be happy.
But there is always a disadvantage to being a maverick, that is, love and hate, what you like must be it, and if you don't like it, you will turn it off directly after reading the first picture of the article.
