SOUEAST S05 Overview
SOUEAST S05 is a compact petrol SUV designed around urban practicality, modern connectivity and family use. The range includes a naturally aspirated 1.5L engine and a more powerful 1.5T turbo option.
Buyers can choose between a five-speed manual transmission and a six-speed dual-clutch transmission depending on trim. Therefore, the S05 range covers both simple entry-level driving and more powerful automatic configurations.
Compact SUV for Daily Driving
With a length of 4,397 mm and a 2,601 mm wheelbase, the S05 remains relatively compact. At the same time, the five-door body provides useful passenger and luggage space.
Three Main S05 Grades
The official global specification lists Comfortable, Luxury and Premium versions. Each grade shares the same basic dimensions, while engines, wheels, safety and convenience equipment differ.
SOUEAST S05 Engines and Performance
1.5L Naturally Aspirated Petrol
The entry powertrain uses a 1.5L naturally aspirated petrol engine. Rated output is 85 kW, while maximum torque is 143 Nm.
