But first, he and his touchy issue of confusion to clear up other markets this vehicle's called X5 Yip, a blatant disregard for established the badge on the back of popular SUV BMW South African importer Jiangling Motors SA has at least made a attempt to distance himself from the controversial name X5 and our market called this vehicle, simply, the Landwind 5 and, judging by the number chrome skew stuck on the tailgate, the name of conversion occurs at the distributor level - probably with a razor blade and the double-sided tape.
Our experience with Chinese cars hasn t been all that peachy since the first GWM and Chana vehicles hit our shores around a decade ago Although its prices relatively well we have taken issue with a poor quality of construction, security systems conform to standards and, on more than one occasion, some bad odors inside.
The rights of Landwind many of these evils The cabin still has plastic in abundance, but it is tidily assembled and the equipment is of similar standard to compete with Korean and Japanese brands.
It also does a good job with an interior space, and although the driver's seating position does not have finer adjustments and is difficult to say the least, the rear passengers get plenty of legroom and boot with saver free space is on par with competitors of similar size the smell, in case you were wondering, is passable, but may be set at the retail level, given its fairly fruity fragrance.
Landwind has made headlines for all the wrong reasons in recent years, as some of its other models one of Isuzu scam called the X6 failed various international crash test dismally It is surprising that it has avoided these Landwind 5 tests globally again, dual airbags and ABS brakes with EBD equipped vehicle received four out of five stars in its Chinese domestic NCAP tests for all they're worth.
Only one version of the Landwind 5 is sold in South Africa - a first wheel-driven, six-speed manual with a two-liter turbopetrol called Lux 4X2 MT 140kW and 250Nm outputs make it one of the most powerful soft roaders on market, and as surprising as it sounds, it really is a hot SUV I was amazed by how quickly pulled through each of its reports, and although we did not want our shoes t VBox test equipment in this one, I think it could really worries over a boy racer tailgate No wonder, given this engine is a derivation of a coward in a Mitsubishi Evo.
But to balance this review, I must say how it rates against rivals of the same size and specced - namely the Nissan Qashqai, Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage The Landwind is actually a little bigger than all three it ranks quite well in space and price.
It is difficult, however, to overlook some disappointing aspects such as looseness in the drivetrain may be impressive fast, but Sá game between the engine, the gearbox and wheels which results in a saccade during a change-speed or taking off gas the shifter manual is also too sloppy in action, and at each change it SA plasticky bed against the end of each door.
A simple stereo system with a giant central volume knob is a breath of fresh air compared to all the complex touch screens today, but its built-in USB port only supports basic audio files from a flash drive and there is no Bluetooth compatibility, so there is no way to listen to music from a radio or CD smartphone remember these reading.
Back to the driver's seating position, it is an oversight that we have come across other Chinese models but the limited number of management settings and the gift seat does allow a very comfortable position at least not for my frame size, which was forced into a very tall and straight posture with pedals at an angle like the piano over my knees, too, how the seats are decorated with decorative bolsters and seams on sitting surfaces may sound fancy, but it is irritating on the back and thighs.
The Landwind 5 is a cut above the rest of Chinese offers, but as a small SUV he Sá step below it offers decent space and power to its particularly low prices, but these things might not be enough to sway buyers far more trusted brands.
SUV Landwind is a stage above the stage below IOL, landwind the step, the position of the driver's seat.
