The updated first-generation Roewe RX5 is a five-door compact SUV built for everyday family use, pairing a practical cabin with turbocharged petrol power and a focus on comfortable, low-effort city and highway driving.
A representative Roewe RX5 engine choice is the 1.5 DCT: a petrol unit driving the front wheels through a robotic dual-clutch gearbox. This powertrain shifts quickly without a clutch pedal, keeping fuel use moderate in traffic, while the front-wheel-drive layout suits paved roads rather than serious off-road work.
