This is the Lifan Xuanlang, a new Chinese MPV that looks a lot like the Ford.
Really a lot. Lifan does that kind of stuff all the time. They
think that is cool. It is also very cheap. The Xuanlang seats seven and price starts at just 69.800 yuan and ends at 106.800 yuan.
Check overall
design, roof line, window lines, pillars, front windshield, shape of third-side
window, line over the doors-door handles, and Lifan even copied the alloys! The
S-Max is currently not available in China so we can’t make a local price
comparison. Lifan Xuanlang dimension is 4720/1840/1665 mm, wheelbase is 2780 mm.
The Lifan is available with three four-cylinder
petrol engines: a 1.8 with 133 Hp and 178 Nm, a 2.0 with 141 Hp and 185 Nm, and a
1.5 turbo with 141 Hp (again) and 234 Nm. The 1.8 and 2.0 are mated to a
five-speed manual or a CVT, the 1.5 turbo to a five-speed manual or an
eight-speed automatic.
Lifan is doing without a digital dash as most of its
competitors have. Instead it has boring analogue dials with blue decoration. The screen is also rather low-tech for China-2017.
It is only 8 inches and does not touch.
