Weizhi V5

The FAW Weizhi V5 was a small four-door sedan from Tianjin FAW, the FAW Group subsidiary in Tianjin, China. CarNewsChina presented it in March 2012 as the successor of the earlier FAW Weizhi sedan and said it would reach the Chinese car market the following month. The preview gave its length, width and height as 4300, 1680 and 1500 millimetres on a 2425 millimetre wheelbase, with a 1.5 litre engine of 75 kilowatts and a choice of five-speed manual or five-speed automatic gearbox. The outlet described it as a budget car, with a price expected from about 60,000 to 80,000 yuan for the top specification. Tianjin FAW's own model list dates the Weizhi V5, code CA 7150 BUE, to 2012 to 2015 and calls it a facelifted Weizhi C1.
