Volkswagen, as the most common car brand, colorful sister has also written about their cars many times before, including classic models with a glorious history like the Golf GTI and the king of appearance such as the Volkswagen CC. However, when it comes to the public, many people are embarrassed.
Indeed, when it was first listed, because of a "wide-body luxury sports car" advertising slogan, many people took it as a joke, although Lingdu did have the word "sports car" in terms of power, but if the positioning was placed in the field of family cars, Lingdu was undoubtedly qualified and excellent!
At the end of the year, when many peers were clearing inventory, colleagues in the exhibition hall unexpectedly received a high-quality Lingdu car - the 2017 Volkswagen Lingdu GTS 2.0T.

Appearance
When The colorful sister saw this car for the first time, she and her colleagues invariably sent out: "It's so beautiful!" "The amazement, especially this full-red GTS, is not inferior to the Porsche 718 next to it. The fiery red body, plus the sports kit of the piano paint process, knows from the outside that this car is not ordinary.
The low design of the front face, coupled with the narrow front grille extending to the sides, gives the impression of a wide front face. The blackened hernia headlights are decorated by the eyebrows of the car, like the eyes of a falcon, revealing a frightening gaze. The fog lights have air intakes on both sides, and the design is the same as the Golf GTI, which can be described as a brother car in the same vein.

Body
From the side, in addition to Volkswagen's thick body design, the most eye-catching thing is the tail and wheels on the trunk cover. The original wheel hub is an 18-inch two-color wheel, and the original owner changed it to all black, reflecting the sports style everywhere.
The rear wing of the trunk and the exhaust system of the bilateral single out still expose its "sports car identity", in addition to decoration, it can also provide pressure for the car at high speed.
From the appearance point of view, Lingdu GTS is still very driving desire, as the same as the two members of the Volkswagen performance car family, Lingdu GTS can see a lot of golf GTI elements, so Lingdu is beautiful, it is not difficult to understand.

Dynamics
The biggest attraction of this Lingdu GTS is that it is equipped with Volkswagen's latest third-generation EA888 2.0T turbo engine, with a maximum power of 220 horsepower and a maximum torque of 350 Nm, while matching the DQ380 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission.
After getting the key, colorful sister also couldn't wait to carry out a test drive, and the first impression of just getting started was that she was full of power, and the speed of the car rose quickly after stepping on the accelerator. In the comfort mode, Lingdu can balance the bumps on the road very well, and after adjusting to the sport mode, the vehicle becomes "grumpy", the throttle feedback is very fast, basically a little throttle, the acceleration of the car can be felt immediately.
You can say that Lingdu's driving state in the two modes is more "split", but from another point of view, as a second-hand car, several modes can have such a strong sense of distinction, which is itself a manifestation of quality.

Interior
In terms of interior, this GTS is not much different from ordinary Lingdu, it is still the classic family style of Volkswagen, but in order to create a driving atmosphere, the interior adopts an all-black design.
The entire central control system is still the familiar "popular taste", and the distribution of various functions is very clear and easy to get started. The 6.5-inch screen doesn't look big today, but it's very versatile, with navigation, vehicle settings, and carplay.
The steering wheel is both sophisticated and sporty, and the GTS letters at the bottom always highlight their sporty attributes. The dashboard did not do too much sports design, relatively ordinary.
Lingdu, which has landed for four years, inevitably has some traces of use in the interior, coupled with the reason of the central control material, it is easier to accumulate dust, it seems old, and it needs to be taken care of frequently, but from this point it can also be seen that the former owner is a hard-working person, and the interior part is always cleaned by him.
