The Kaicene CX70 is the newest sub-compact 7-seater SUV in the market, and it pretty much does what it’s set out to do: offer a top-of-the-line SUV experience for three-quarters of a Toyota Rush or Honda BR-V’s price. Despite its winning price and high value for money quotient, it does, however, fall short—way short—of delivering three-quarters of its competitors on-road refinement and dynamics.

Kaicene, Changan’s commercial vehicle brand distributed by Berjaya Auto Asia is ready to get into the family MPV space with its first-ever automatic offering: the 2022 CX70.
