Chinese cars often do not have a very good reputation for build quality and reliability, but the fact that they often look like already known models is known to everyone. As an example, one of these vehicles is considered the Lifan X80.
2017 Lifan X80 SUV Exterior
In general, an SUV from the Middle Kingdom resembles a very ordinary European car. The Lifan X80 photo of which can be viewed in this article is somewhat reminiscent of several models, first of all, the Toyota Highlander. The similarities are especially visible in the front of the car.
Still, the Chinese SUV has its own characteristics. At the front of the Lifan X80, a massive radiator grille, decorated with three extended chrome stripes, is impressive. In the center of the lattice, as usual, the logo of the Lifan concern, which is still unknown to the whole world, is located.
The head optics has undergone minor design changes, however, now LEDs are installed in it, and this is a significant breakthrough, both in marketing and in the technical equipment of the brand's cars. turn. Also worth noting is the massive and embossed bumper of the SUV, which has grown somewhat compared to the previous generation.
The hardworking Chinese have also thought of impressive plastic body kits that should protect the car from stones under the bottom. In the same plastic body kits, Chinese designers decided to place compact fog lights. In more expensive trim levels, the Lifan X80 will have a lane-reading sensor, which will also be placed in the fog niches.
The first thing that draws attention to when reviewing the Lifan X80 is its side glazing, which is elegantly edged in chrome. Lateral visibility is also commendable, thanks to the narrow door pillars. A smooth pothole extends from the rear optics to the front fender, giving the SUV a sleek, modern look. As for the door handles and side mirrors, they can be ordered both in body color and in a chrome frame. All this very much resembles the new Mitsubishi Pajero Sport 2018-2019. Right there, if you look closely, you can see the features of the new Honda Pilot.
The stern is distinguished by a huge luggage door, where oversized cargo can be pushed through without worries. Russian motorists will be pleased with the SUV's ground clearance, which is as much as 220 millimeters. In general, Lifan X80 2016 in a new body is able to compete in its segment with many flagships of the automotive industry. Behind, to be honest, the model is almost completely original, but the first impression is made that the model does not come from China, but from Korea. And it belongs to Hyundai. On the other hand, every car has a steering wheel, wheels, fenders, an engine, and none of these are alike.
Interior of the new 2018-2019 Lifan X80
Already in the basic configuration, the updated Lifan X80 will come with three rows of seats. True, the third row is more intended for preschool children, but on the average there will be enough space for three passengers at once, who will not feel discomfort even after the longest trips.
The interior trim of the Chinese SUV deserves special praise, primarily for the abundance of expensive trim materials. To create the interior, Chinese designers have used materials such as genuine leather, expensive types of wood, as well as chrome and aluminum.
At the disposal of the driver, in addition to an orthopedic chair with an electric backrest adjustment, there will be a digital instrument panel with a 5-inch on-board computer screen. The on-board computer will be available already in the database. Stylish, multifunctional steering wheel has leather upholstery, as well as tilt and reach.
The central panel looks spartan, simple and strict. Standing apart on the panel, there is a built-in 8-inch monitor of the multimedia system, surrounded by vents of the ventilation system. It is worth adding that the updated Lifan X80 is equipped with a built-in GPS sensor. All navigation information goes to the multimedia screen, the driver only needs to switch to another mode.
By the way, the entertainment complex can be controlled using a mobile phone, having installed an appropriate application before that. The car is friendly with both IOs and Android. By the way, there are more expensive car models that, for example, cannot sync with Android Auto and only work with Applу Car Play.
There is a lot of space in the second row, but the manufacturer completely forgot about the convenience of landing in order to install the third row in the seven-seater version. As a result, the backrest of the second row passengers is almost vertical. And this is really a problem, at least there is enough space above your head. On the third row, in a seven-seater version, only two children can fit, but there are practically no models on the world car market that could boast of greater passenger capacity.
