The Landwind X2 has been launched on the Chinese car market.
The Landwind X2 is a small SUV that looks
a tad too much like a Hyundai, bit otherwise not too bad. It comes with shiny
bits in the grille/bumper, small but sporty wheels, and usable roof rails.
The X2 is the first car in the small-SUV segment for
Landwind. The segment is hugely popular in China and growing fast, especially
in second and third tier cities where the market demands ever more
Chinese-branded cheap-ass small SUVs.
The X2 hits all the boxes: it is Chinese of course,
and it is small: with 4160/1810/1670 mm, and wheelbase is 2560 mm. Price is small as well;
starting at 63.800 yuan and ending at 88.800 yuan. And all those 8s are no
coincidence as eight is a lucky number in Chinese culture
Dash is very good for a Landwind; with a flat
bottomed steering wheel, panels in body color, an 8-inch
touch screen, some shiny lining, and sporty seats.
Sadly, the engine isn’t worth much of a word: a 1.6
with 125 hp and 150 nm, mated to a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic,
sending power to the front wheels. A 1.5 turbo will be added to the lineup
later but when exactly is unsure.
