Lifan X60 - reviews of new owners

Most recently, a new crossover model from Lifan Motors was introduced at the Shanghai Motor Show - it's the Lifan X 60. According to the developers, of course, the car is purely an own design, however, some experts take the liberty of comparing it to the Toyota RAV4. I must say that their assumptions about partial plagiarism have the right to life. But, despite this, the Chinese continue to punch cars at their own peril and risk. In fact, the similarity to the model Toyota RAV4 of the second generation is, but partial. So, the layout scheme for both cars is the same, but here they have different dimensions, just like the aesthetics of cars. Today we will talk about the Lifan X60. Reviews about it can already be found on Russian-language sites, as it began to be supplied to the domestic consumer.

The power unit of the car is located transversely, and the body at Lifan x 60 is bearing. The volume of the engine is 1.8 liters, the power of which is 133 horses. The power unit was developed in cooperation with a British firm called RICARDO. In general, the car has many parts that were produced by European manufacturers. This allows them to say that cars are made using new technologies.

The front suspension X60 - McPherson, and the rear multi-link independent. In addition, all four wheels are equipped with disc brakes with 4-channel ABS. It is worth noting and the literacy of the selected powertrain support, which do not allow to penetrate into the body of unnecessary vibrations, thereby interfering with the management of the Lifan X60. Reviews of this car's details are only positive, so there is no point in returning to this issue.

There are no variants of the transmission choice. There is only a 5-speed manual gearbox. Unfortunately, there is no complete drive, either. Yes, the manufacturers have already thought about this, but the hands apparently did not reach. In this case, the car will go beyond the cheap car, and it's too early to compete in another price category.

Today, manufacturers can count on people who want to buy an inexpensive city SUV, or even a wagon with increased ground clearance, with an increased level of comfort, convenience and versatility, rather than with the ability to overcome the roads. Not to such is the Lifan X60. The drivers' comments indicate that the car is more created for enjoyment in the urban setting, or on intercity routes than off-road trips.

That's why in the cabin Lifan x 60 is quite comfortable. Everything is done surprisingly smoothly and qualitatively, from pleasant fabrics and plastic. The front panel captivates with its simplicity and functionality. There are elements that resemble a car, which we talked about at the beginning, but we will not mention it. Better note the level of transformation of the interior, which can envy many cars. There are 2 options for the Lifan X60. There are comments about one option, and about the other, but naturally, the more expensive, the better.

Chinese manufacturers missed only one point with Lifan X60. The responses of drivers who craved the purchase of a crossover with an automatic transmission were, and there were a lot of them, which means that some of their potential buyers this time they missed.
