The Maxus D60 SUV by SAIC-Maxus is an "ideal medium-sized SUV that offers a seven-seat layout and advanced technology".The vehicle is available at Auto Class Cars, the authorised general distributor of Maxus in Qatar, at its showroom on Salwa Road in Doha.The D60 made its global debut with a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine mated to a seven-speed DCT under its hood. This setup generates a decent 159hp and 250Nm of torque, a press statement noted.Based on the rigid line inherited from the design of the SAIC-Maxus concept car, TARANTULA, the Maxus D60's massive octagonal grille up front features a honeycomb-like design. This is flanked by aggressive-looking swept-back headlamps as well as a pair of sporty fog lamps. The full LED split matrix headlights with the style of the big dipper and the penetrating LED diamond taillights echo with each other.The body structure adopts a closed-loop frame structure, significantly increasing the overall safety level and rigidity. The ratio of high-strength steel accounts for 65% and the ratio of ultra-high-strength steel reaches 25%, making the whole vehicle caring for the driving journey as an iron bastion.As a mid-sized SUV for the family, there is a lot of emphasis on practicality in the interior design. A large area with soft material is used above the centre console to highlight the good texture.
