Baojun has completely revealed
the CN210S. Earlier this month it had released the SUV’s exterior images, and
now, it has released the interior images. Separately, we can reveal through
live images that the new model is named 'RS-5'.
The Baojun RS-5 is the brand’s new flagship SUV, and
its top-positioning is clearly visible in the interior design, which is
completely new. The two-tone colour scheme and the minimalist approach in the
design make the cabin look quite luxurious. Configurable virtual instrument
cluster, a freestanding large colour central display for the infotainment
system, dual-zone automatic climate control and panoramic sunroof are some of
the main features visible in the images.
The Baojun RS-5 is what the HS is for MG, a
D-segment SUV. In a first for any of the brand’s models, it uses a newly
developed platform that will underpin even an MPV in the future.
The Baojun RS-5 measures 4,570 mm in length, 1,870
mm in width and 1,705 mm/1,720 mm in height. It has a 2,700 mm wheelbase.
Despite the large dimensions, it’s a five-seater. Under the hood is the LJO
1.5-litre engine that is made by SAIC-GM-Wuling. It develops a maximum power of 151 PS. This presumably turbocharged four-cylinder petrol unit
likely sends power to the wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic
transmission. The fuel consumption rating is 8.0 L/100 km, which converts to a
fuel economy of 12.5 km/l.
The Baojun RS-5 should see its official launch at
the 2018 Guangzhou Auto Show in December.
