Facing the white-hot situation of SUV market, C3-XR with the price of 9.48- 1 15800 pushed the price to freezing point and even suppressed the price range of independent brands. There are only a few small joint venture SUVs, and Dongfeng Citroen C3-XR has also been suspended by Guangqi Honda Binzhi, Dongfeng Honda XR-V, Guangqi Toyota C-HR and Beijing Hyundai ix25.
The quality of Tielong is still worthy of recognition, such as chassis tuning, and it has its own set of technology. However, it seems that not many people accept Citroen's design. Many rounded rectangular elements on C3-XR exude a lot of lovely wind, which may be more popular with female consumers, but it is destined to be a niche product. Compared with Volkswagen and Japanese brands, this design is too individual, and accepting alternative designs still needs the mass base.
Nowadays, many brands are promoting maneuverability and performance. The new C3-XR does not improve the power, but gives consumers a low-power version, which is difficult for young people to get through. 1.2T engine is absolutely enough for daily traffic, but don't expect it to have amazing performance.
In addition, although the price is close to independent brands, at the level of 6.5438+10,000 yuan, the space of domestic compact SUVs is too large, such as Haval H6, Geely Job, Chuanqi GS4, etc., but the performance in space, power and configuration is even better. In terms of cost performance, C3-XR is not as good as its own brand, not only C3-XR, but also the whole Dongfeng Citroen family.
However, all this can't be blamed on C3-XR, which has been dragged down by the brand of legal system. In recent years, the brand of legal system is declining in China, and it is not favored by the masses. Many consumers don't consider the brand of legal system at all, so they deny it from the brand. Even if C3-XR performs well, it doesn't even enter the scope of consumers' car purchase, which can't be blamed. The pot thrown by the superstructure can only be forced to accept.
Faced with such bleak sales, the new C3-XR only relies on the "micro-shaping" of the exterior interior and adds a low-power engine, which can not fundamentally enhance its competitiveness, and it is too difficult to become the "savior" of Dongfeng Citroen. It is in the pursuit of performance control and expanding the configuration weight today that what the new C3-XR lacks is also the reason for deducting points.
In addition, Dongfeng Citroen brand itself has a great relationship with C3-XR. Management and marketing should be the necessary factors of vehicle endorsement. If it is missing, it should bear the responsibility of low score.
