Yesterday, GAC Toyota Wesa was officially listed, with a price range of 216,800-303,800 yuan, equipped with 2.0L gasoline and 2.5L dual-engine hybrid power, providing two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive options. This is almost the same as the FAW Toyota Lingfang, which was just listed not long ago. The slight difference is that the price range of Lingfang is 21.18 to 297,800 yuan, and the entry and top price is about 5,000 yuan lower than that of Weisa, and 7 models are available (Weisa is 6 models).
For consumers, in the face of the price, technology is basically the same, and there are two sister models of "the most beautiful Toyota car", how to choose? Let's divide the two products into three dimensions to compare and analyze.
1
Compared with entry-level models, the linging can be more selective
From the price point of view, the price of Lingfang's entry-level model is 5,000 yuan lower than that of Weisa, but there is little difference between the two in terms of configuration. For example, LingFang has a soundproof front windshield, Weisa is equipped with an inductive wiper, Lingfang is a manual anti-glare rearview mirror, and Weisa is an automatic anti-glare rearview mirror. However, Yipinjun believes that as an SUV starting from 200,000 yuan, the entry-level models of the two do not have basic functional configurations such as front and rear reversing radar, seat heating, electric tailgates, and air purifiers, so it is not recommended to start, otherwise models with similar sizes can choose Rongfang and Veranda's high-end models, and can enjoy many luxurious configurations.
The sub-low models of Lingfang have increased a lot of practical configurations, such as reversing radar, LED glove box lighting, seat heating, parking anti-collision assist system, etc., and also added dimmable sunroofs, auto-dimmable rearview mirrors, advanced leather perforated seats and other luxurious features. Although the price is 17,000 yuan, it will greatly improve the comfort of driving. At the same time, it is 13,000 yuan higher than Weisa, and the configuration difference is also very obvious, with more functions and luxury configurations such as front and rear parking radar, front seat heating, etc.

Medium and high matching comparison, the use preference determines who is more valuable
Regarding these four models, we can first use the exclusion method to choose, that is, whether an urban SUV needs four-wheel drive. In fact, considering the use scenarios of most people, the significance of four-wheel drive is not great. In contrast, 264,800 yuan can start with the dual engine version of the model, and the fuel consumption saved is not more fragrant?
However, you have to choose the four-wheel drive version, in fact, the cost performance alone is not bad. It is 13,000 more than the Lingfang two-wheel drive flagship version (255,800 yuan) (compared to the Lingfang two-wheel drive flagship version), and the increased configuration is mainly voice control sunroof/air conditioning, mobile phone wireless charging, HUD head-up display, four-wheel drive system. So, the relationship between the two depends on which configurations you value more.
In fact, about these four models, you can completely ignore the brand differences, and see them as four different configurations of one model. Following this logic, let's take a look at the main differences between the respective models.
Through the above table, we can find that the two-wheel drive prestige and the Lingfang two-wheel drive prestige have differences in configuration, the most obvious of which is the driver assistance image, the Weisa only has a reversing image, and the Lingfang is a 360-degree panoramic image, but in the electric trunk, seat ventilation, voice recognition, induction wipers, the Weisa configuration is more abundant.

Dual-engine model comparison
I have to admit that many people now buy Toyota cars to run to the double engine. Toyota's dual engine products have accumulated sales of nearly 20 million vehicles in the world, and their technical maturity and fuel-saving effect are obvious to all. So, if you've been planted with a double engine before, you can ignore the above analysis.
The comparative analysis of this part can also refer to the above logic, that is, to regard Lingfang and Weisa as 6 different configurations of a model, and choose cars according to personal preferences and budgets. Here is no longer a one-by-one comparison, directly give a pinjun conclusion: the purchase of Lingfang two-wheel drive luxury cost-effective, although it is 13,000 yuan more expensive than Weisa (in fact, the comparison logic of the dual engine model is consistent with the fuel version, just one more set of dual engine system), but more basic functions such as front and rear radar, seat heating, etc., and these are the needs of daily driving. The four-wheel drive version of the dual-engine model, a pinjun is not recommended: on the one hand, because the necessity of use in the city is not large, it is better to spend money on other configurations; the second is to spend 300,000 yuan to buy a compact SUV with Toyota LOGO, it is also worth considering, such as the same 300,000 yuan, the four-wheel drive premium version of the crown road is not fragrant?
Finally, there are many similarities between the positioning of Lingfang and Weisa, but a closer look will find that Lingfang and Weisa still have differences in product strategies. For example, the Lingfang fuel version model has one more model than Weisa, which increases the user's selectivity; Weisa is equipped with a four-wheel drive system on the fuel version, which obviously wants to raise the positioning of the model; on the hybrid version, Lingfang has two four-wheel drive models, and at the top, it is Weisa's higher price. In fact, from the perspective of consumers' purchasing habits, the probability of entry-level models and top-level models being selected is often low, while medium- and high-end models are the most expensive. From this point of view, Ling Fang has an advantage.
